The President is preparing a Message, which he will send to Congress after first submitting it to the Cabinet, in which he will make a plain, but elaborate statement of facts in connection with the Federal proceedings in Louisiana, in support of the decision of the United States Court. The President is opposed to any legislation by Congress, ordering a new election in Louisiana, though he has no hesitation in saying that there is no doubt that the late election in Louisiana was an orgauized fraud from beginning to end for the benefit of those now in possession of the Government of that State, and that there hs never yet been a fair account of the votes; that the results have been reached by dishonest means, too well kuown to be repeated. Still, it is his opinion, as recently privately expressed, that Congress has no more right to order a new election in Louisiana than it has in any other State, becauseof a local conflict. All States now being equal in the Union, arc entitled to the same general protection from illegal or unconstitutional interference by any branch of the Federal Government, as they are against invasion.

Editsr Jpsctiok : Dear Sir : Iu your issue of Tuesday last, 1 notice a direct attact upon the tuition of some our educational institutions of thi3 City. Your correspondent makes use of the following language: "At some of our schools this certainly is far too high." Now, Sir, I would like to ask your correspondent, what has been the cause of the miserable school system that has been and is still existing in many parts of our Territory. Has it not beeu in consequence of the low rates of tuition. We find that most of the leading clerks and merchants of our city, have honored the office of pedagogisiu, iu times past. We also find that the very first opportunity that presented a more lucrative, position was embrased and school and school children abandoned to be left to the most makeshift teacher, till some thing better would again present itself. In this way, children have been harassed with new and inexperienced teachers, every quarter; the cause of education, the dearest treasure that a parent can bebeequath a child, trampled upon by to of scum the repreto society ing left sent, while our honorable merchants and clerks, worthy examples of imitation, have drawn themselves behind the counter to measure tape. I have no doubt that this very correspondent of j ours is of the teachers of the past but seeing a has deserpicayune in an other quarter ted it, left his own posterity to live in the hands of a person ignorance, or in would not bring the salary whose talents an institution now and seeing of a clerk, whose object is to make teaching a prowe fession and employ such talent as morto become, our posterity would like endeavors to ally and intellectually, with extortion, cnbble it by branding it desire of finding fault with i ., and much the past systems or teachers,1 know for they Ws with the people, existhave done all they could do under But had this corres. ing I surmise correctly of (if yours pondent been a teacher) have to in believing him now reading children the done his duty, new need wou.d not Header, Fifth in the common a obtain to to attend a school com would for they s,hool education, Sawyer,; of the U.S. .Circuit , circum-tances- fSRL, jPU plete that in the Fourth Reader. Put instead of that, what has beeu the result of past instruction? Young men from sixteen to twenty-fou- r years of age, apply to be examined for admission to the classes. 1 ask him what readers they read in. and they will, generally, inform you that they read in the Fifth Reader. They have been studying a little arithmetic, but a knowledge of the earth, geography, and the art of speaking correctly, they know nothing abuut. Years have beeu spent in ttie school room, and the choisest fruits of the faithful husbandman and mechanic are send to the teacher for a little "rnhuie-tireader, riten and spellin." 1 have observed that the cause of education was ofteu left to the scum of society to represent: Proof; on my first arrival in Ugden City 1 was pointed out a teacher of a district sohool lying across the side walk, dead drunk. Otner examples might be cited but 1 refrain, lie says further, "The ouly difference between our schools and common schools in otbre,parts of the Territory is the prices charged lor tuition." Now if your correspontieut has reference to certain commun schools taught iu the territory such as probably his was (judging from the grammar aud beauiitul arrangement of the sentences in his epittle) 1 certainly agree with him. If, however, he has reference to the most Luted educational institutions of our Territory, such as we are endeavoring to udopt tor our young, but, of course, are euly, as yet, in our infancy we beg most respectfully to differ from him.
