STATE RIGHTS DEMOCRAT. . C23TIUCT SCUOOL' MSETINO. The mcotitg lMt Saturday t the District School Bonse, called to provide means cither for tba en largement and repair of the present building, or the erection of " new one, failed to accomplish anything, and finally adjourned, to meet again on Saturday, Jan. 20th, at 5 o'clock, when tho pro position to levy a tax for the required purpose will be submitted to a vote. At that meeting the pro position to divide the School District tannot be acted upon. These interested in that proposition, who favor it more especially, should see to having prior action taken on that measure before the r nlar District meeting assembles. A meeting held a day ot two earlier, or on Saturday morning next, might ajuwe the purpose. Bat at the regular ojctiiBg no business can ce txanf acici ex cept to vote upon the proposed Us. It will then fee either adopted or rejected, as the majority of the legal voters present shall decide. PAIS GROUND MEETINO.

Hackle man was called to the Chair. ; An examination of tho subscription list for the tonrchase of a plt for the Fair Grpund showed that there were fifty -one shares yet to bo disposed : f before the Association could regularly organise. . On motion, therefore, the Committee on Sub scriptions were given until Saturday. January 20th, V report, at which time it is confidently believed the remaining stock will be all taken. On motion, the meeting then adjourned to meet "at the Court Honse on Satnrdav. January 20th. at 1 o'clock, r. x. A.

Almost any of them will answer ; all are equally applicable. ; RiGHtrr Resovted.' The report of the proceedings of the Convention of School teachers held at Brownsville last month will be found open the fourth page of this paper. Among the resolations we observe one that .especially challenges our attention and merits approval on all sides. It is that in which the introdnction of party politics in schools is condemned. If aa the teachers in Linn county will only praTtice that very excellent . rule, the absolute prohibition of politics from their respective schools, the rising generation of the county -rill be better educated than they are, and the teachers will niore faith fully perform their duty towards their pupils . ihan come of them do now. A Miserable Liar. Tho following ap " pears in the last Albany Journal : One bundle of paper, for the rebel Organ, ras landed at the wharf at this place on last Tuesday. The miserable liar said this to give out the 'Impression that our circulation was small, and the prospects of the paper were not Wight. He failed to state that the "bundle" .contained ten reams, or 4,S00 sheets of Ennfang paper, im, however. We expect no truth from Ex-Phesidejjt BcchanaK's Book. This most valuable wort is now before the public at the East, and copies of it may soon be expected on this coast. It -will command an extraordinay sale, and we wish it could be read by every person in 'the land On the first page of this I camber we give one whole chapter from the workjand will continue in succeeding Durnbers the publication of other portions ;.f the book. . . : DicK-ET FoREvxa!

SOth tre very justly but briefly commented upon the most reprehensible character of a " Se lect School " Exhibition tvhieh was given in the Court House on tho etening of the 2Sth Dee., in which the pupils small boys and little girls aud young ladies were caused to recite- and take part in pieces of the most insulting, fanatical, Abolition character. Tho last Journal engages in a sort of vindication of the Lxhibitiou. "We need only quota some passages from the article and then add facta to show renders the ln'azcn &huty and misrepresentation which it contains. It says : . " The exercises were conducted in a man ner which gave entire satisfaction to the parents ot the children. ' - Without going further to prove the utter falsehood included in the quoted words, we might simply remark that quite if not fully one-half of the parents are Democrats, and that the exercises had been so arranged that to the little boys of Democratic parents the most insulting and virulent Abolition pieces were given to speak. Common seuso will tell any person that the outraged parents of these children could not have been entirely sat isfied with the exercises. But we have actual proof. The fathers of some of the children have personally assured us that they were disgusted at the Exhibition generally, because of its strongly marked Abolition character, and were particularly incensed at. hearing their own children recite the most objectionable pieces. And further, to show that the teacher knew that the parents of the children were not entirely satisfied, we have the assurance from two of the offended parents that the teacher apologized for the wrong, and de clared that it was an oversight or accident that such pieceswere given their chiiJrcu; that ': some of the other scholars must have taught such pieces to the hihlren' ke. If, as the Journal asserts, the par ents of the children were entirelj satis fied, why did the teacher make these ex planations apologetically? SoniQ capital b sought to he made out of this subject in the interest of the teacher on the score that she is a woman. We ever f how courteous deference to j women. We respect their station in life !ani ;a societv whether thev themselves do or not. But when a woman writes a book, or delivers a lecture, or teaches a school, her book, her lecture and her school, after being made public property by herself,, are just as mu?h subject to public comment and criticism as if pub lished, delivered or taiurht by a man. And in a review or criticism, it is not the woman, not the person, but the subject which ia brought under notice. So in this matter, we have nothing to do with the person who teaches it is her School Exhibition and School which we criticize, as we have a perfect right to do. A woman who assumes to teach a school of young children ousrht to know that it i3 enjoiued upon them all to " honor thy father and thy mother and that to tench yonnpc boys and girls that because their father is a Democrat he is also a "traitor," and "rebel," and of in famous character generally, is not very faithfully to impress the good command- jment upon her pupils' minds, or to prop erly fulfill her highest duty towards them. At the Exhibition in question there were a goodly number of scholars. About half of the parents of these scholars are Democrats and the remainder Abolition ists. It was remarkable that of all the very many bitter partisan pieces which made up the programme at the Lxhibi tion, not one was opposed to Radical Ab olitionism, while every one assailed De mocracy, and the most insulting of all we repeat, were put into the mouths of the children of Democrats. There could not have been accident or inattention in tne arrangement or so singular a pro gramme. It ntust have been studiously arraned, and the intention of its peculiar arrangement is obvious, Our public schools and all schools in which children are promiscuously receiv ed, ought to be preserved entirely free from political taint or bias or teaching. We shall as readily and as severely con demn a School Exhibition or School in which Democracy is lauded and Aboli tionism is derided or assailed, as we will where the affair is turned to Abolition uses. It is not, in this connection, the character of the party bias which we de nounce, but the introduction of politics in any way whatsoever in schools. Relig ious faith and party belief are not for the public schools to teach, but for parests and others duly recognized by them to deal with. If Abolitionists or Puritans choose to authorize some schoolteacher to impart religious and political instruction to their children, agreeably to their own convictions, that is their privilege, and we do not propose to take exceptions thereto. But we do most emphatically protest against the endeavor to produce in the minds of scholars generally in the common schools a belief that this or that party doctrine is a heresy, or that this Xr that religious denomination is hetrodox. As we have said, that part of their train ing belongs to tho parents or natural cmardiana f f Tia Ki!iiTfn And in conclusion, we do earnestly hope that Democrats will, here in Albany, and everywhere in Oregon, take some steps to prevent their children from being contaminated by the Abolition system of j of education, or teaching rather, which I has been and is being still widely prac-i ticed throughout this State as well as in other States, and by which the youths are taught to despise and abiior the De mocracy of their fathers. "We tell Earents plainly that.it were a hundred times better that their children grew up with no better instruction than they can receive at home than -to be sent to these pestilent Abolition schools of the Puritan propagandists. Democrats ought not to send their children to any school where any politics' are tanht by the teacher. 1 QUESTION FOn THE PEOPLE. The chief efforts of the Radicals in Cougress aro directed against tho old Democratic doctrino of State Rights. The Amendment to the Constitution lately declared ratified, by the required number of States is interpreted to mean that Con cress shall absolutelv fix the civil and political 6tatus of the citizens of all the States, the will or desire of any State to tho contrary notwithstanding. This leaves barely a prerogative which tho State or tho people can claim for their owu domestic Kovernu'cut. Rut, iu order that no stone of the whole State Rights temple shall be left untouched and intact, a still further amendment is proposed, by which tho whole structure of our Gov ernment shall be overturned, and in its place shall be roared a strong, complete, centralized, consolidated power. The projected amendment, like everything el?c destructive of the rights of the States and the people, is a thing of Puritan in vention and New England mould. If proposes to entirely do away with the present mode of electing the President and Vice President, and to substitute therefor a form of " popular election," in which the voter casts his vote directly for the candidates and not for Electors as at present. The amendment, if ratified, will simply be a machine for putting almo&i supreme power in the hands of the few great States which have a very large population and immense wealth ; and for redueinsr the smaller States to the condi tion of subject or tributary dependencies. The farce of a Presidential election might be formally gone through with every four years, but the result would beas certainly fixed beforehand as if the great States possessed the absolute right cf appointing the two functionaries. The Amendment already clafimed to be ratified, as inter preted by the party in power, invests Congress "with the power to determine who shall and who shall not be voters in the various Sta'es. Congress is net ob liged to pass a uniform law for all the States, but it can make a different law for 'each State. Thus, in the States having a large number cf (lerman cr Imh adopt ed citizens, likely to vote the Democratic ticket, and also a considerable number of negroes, quite certain to vote the Abo'i tion ticket, Congress would divest the nat uralized citizens of the elective franchise and invest the negroes with it. With this power vested in Congress by the Amendment declared to be ratified, the election of a President and Vice Presi dent under the system provided in the propose ! Amen linen t by direct popular votes would be simply a thing of ar rangement on the part of the men in power. The admitted voters would be allowed the barren privilege of casting their votes, bat only in order that, there by, the form of an election should be preserved, while the essence the privi lege of the votes, to elect or to defeat would be withheld from them. Ti e voice of Oregon in such an election would be of les3 weight than the wish of Fred. Douglass. It behooves the people to reflect upon this disposition of the party in power to trample down State Rights and to repose supreme, paramount power in the hands of Congress, If Congress is to be su preme in the matters already referred to. what powers or privileges are to be re served or allowed to the States ? It is a question which seriously affects every voter and every resident. If Congress may dictate to a State in the grave matter of the elective franchise, it can dictate to the people as to whom they must elect to public office. If Congress can decide upon and fix the civil aud political status of the people of a State, it can determine and control the local domestic govern ment of the State. In short, if Congress shall have the paramount authority the tv.j: l- ' i i' i .v i . Radicals now contend for under the late Amendment, there is actually no such thing as a free State or a State Govern ment in existence. To be free, a State must have the right and power to manage its own domestic affairs a State Govern ment must be the means by which this right and power is exercised. If Con gress can eontroj the State in any way it pleases, of course the State is no longer free, but subject its people are not citi zens, but subjects. The thinking, honest few among the Abolitionists, must see, on reflection, that this overthrow of State Rights by Congress is but another name for the overthrow of true republican gov ernment, and the initial step to the erec tion , of a monarchy or despotism, to be wielded by the men in power.
