PAGE. ae The Kiections To-day, © This will be a day of intense interto the people of the United States. * Blections are held in Pennsylvania, ‘Ohio, Indiana, Nebraska, and a del-egate to Congress will also be elected in Dakota. The South Carolina election will take place on the 16th, and “the West Virginia on the 24th. The later elections will possess little interest after the result of the contest to-day is known. In Pennsylvania there is some disaffection in-‘the Republican party, and it may to some extent effect the election, but it_is not likely that the party will be defeated. In fact the weight of judgment of those who shonld know is, ~ _ the result by none than the usual ma— question the strongest man,and they _tanjority ‘Gf 3;000 to 5,000 votes, _ ing tie last two years is now before that Pennsylvania is pretty certain for the Republican ticket to-day; and beyond question, whatever may be ‘the result in this. contest, the State may be counted certainly for Grant: dn Ohio there is no question as to the Democrats endricks, without jority. In India: have Thomas Ay will prohably support him, and if “reinforced by any large number of dhdberals he may be elected, Four ydars ago Indiana went Democratic in October, and wheeléd into lino for Grant and Colfax in) November. Hendricks may be Governor, but Grant and Wilson” will get the Elec*@ral vote. Nébraska will be Repub‘gait beyond question, In the two States where there is a shadow of doubt as to the result a most active Canvass has been made,: and we think from information received from Kastefn éxchanges, Pennsylvania may be almost certainly counted for the Republican.ticket, Hendricks’ pop< wlwrity with his own party, thé close . ° yote usually given in Indiana, and] the fact that the Miberals there have teen working most eartiestly for "Hendricks in the of influencing the result for-Greeley, may secure the Stateof Indiana in this contest fog tive Democracy; but even with a Grant will carry it against Greeley im November. In these comments we have given the most favorable position for the Democracy, and we should not be nt all surprised, if the Republicans sweep the four States named, to-day. Both parties will ~—enxionaly await the news. Ix his last aunpal message, President Grant anneanced that ‘it had been the aim of the Administration te enforce honesty and efficiency in all public servants. Thore who have! violated the trust in them have been proceeded .againat with all the rigor of the Jaw.’’. ‘Phe long list of progecutions and.convictions dur the comntryy Yet Greeley men persist in eharging President Grant as an ancessory.to.the frauds perpetrated by delinquent Sfficers. When we consider that ali the recreant officers appointed by Andrew Johnson, who were convicted and punished, are now lnstily shouting for Greeley;-and are in favor of honesty und . refurm, we may easily understand what these reformers, not yet reformed, meaii by reform.

This ia the fastest tame évet made on @ half mile track. Bavraso Br is amusing the theatre goers of Sactumanto: . says the Stockton Independent, Union is now the only hope of the. r acl paralleled mg The exhibitions of vanity and inordinate self-conceit daily made in the columns of the Sacramento Union,are go extraotdinary and so far im excess of anything ever before ‘imagined, that they” are really becomiing intensély interesting. According tothe assertions of the editorof that paper, pblican party in this State.— There are some thirty ddd Republiean papers now opposing its course, but then, says the high mightiness of the Union, these journals are the ‘‘chickadee press”’ of the State and ondeserving of notice. The Union only is-right and all the-rest_are wrong, and every newspaper and every citizen of the State that don’t . agree with the -Union,.is wholly und cumpletely inthe interests of. the railrosd company, and unworthy of confidence. The Unton thust also be the sole judge whether men are trust. worthy or not, and no matter what . may have been their past retord, or what may now be theic’ prosfession of principles, if the Union does not favor them they are not to be accepted as worthy of confidence. Primary elections, county and State conventions must be managed by the Union or else the Republicau party is forever lost. The Republican press of the State, which asa unit now opposes the arrogant dictation of the inion, is treated with perfect contempt, and every day the coarsest epithets are hurled against it because it is true to the principles of the party, and unanimously supports its nominees. The Union is really arrayed. equarely in opposition to the Republican. party of this State, but still pretends to desire to advance the interests of that party. The managers of that paper have the impudence to ‘assume that they have more wisdom than the whole party combined; and that unlesa their advice is implicitly followed the party will be beaten. This claim is made when the rank and file of the Republican’ party know fall well that the Union has never been true either to the interests of the Republican party, or true to the interests of the State, and they know to-duy its support of Grant is merely for effect, and that it may be enabled to carry ont ita schemes for the defeat of Congressional nominees of the party. # Aa “The editor who writes the sitictes professedly favoring th tion of Grant is an avowed supporter of Greeley, aud has not oné single sympathy in common with the Republity of this State. This course of onduct shows an amount of arrogance and self conceit that is truly remarkable, and if unblushing impudence can earry a point the Union will be successful in its effort to disrupt.and demoralize the Republican party of this State. We imagine, however, thatthe .people are. not disposed to submit to the dictations of a few individuals “manage that paper. ‘We believe that they fully understand that, notwithstanding the arrogant boasts of this journal, its editors and proprietors are not possessed of superior intelligence or honesty, andare not by any means qualified to dictate the:policy of ‘the Republican party. “If the Republicans of this State are independent thinkers, and we know this'is one of. their characteristics, they will utter: ly and wholly repudiate the advice of the Union, and will frown down its attempt to. browbeat, defame and abuse every citizen who Batnaa.t0 accept its dictation, The idea that the honesty and brains of the Republican party is in the Union office isoné: of the vagaries of the insane managers of that paper which the people .will a with proper contempt. Satie aol “‘Not Just Now.” Under this caption the Sacramento Union of Saturday ‘contains comments in reply to# question asked by the Marysville Appeal, whether it would publish the Goat Island Bil) ornot, The Union says ‘it is not inj» the habit of reprinting, Ws reading matter, the paid.ad ent of the ing monopoly inthe chic Rylan The Txanscrret publiaea d e Bill without pay or any promise = pay, to show to our readers that the Union had lied about the Bill.

Under our present. system of school laws, a teacher, it is true; can not make much by attempting to teach morality by preeept, still he can-do so by example, whith is, after all, the teacher’s most. powerfal aid. It .is almost impossible to teach anything well except by example. For instance, if a teacher attempt to teach reading without being himself the model or exatifpley’Will his pupils make any advancement? Or, worse still, should a teacher attempt to teach by example and be not himself a good reader, ‘will not. his pupils copy his errors? They certainly will;an@ soitis with nearly every study, but More especially is it the case when taken in a moral bearing. Visit a!school where the teacher acts the tyrant over the school and what will you find? _ Will the pupils have such a horror of tyranny as not to practice it themselves when opportunity offers? Just the réverse of it; they will be the true imitators of the teacher, and might, not right, will influence them, a8 you may plainly see if you notice them in their plays. Visit the schocl where the teacher is ain, unbeliever in either God or man, and you will find, should you mention thename, atthe sound of which, all knees should bend, that there wifi be * sneer on the face of most of the pupils, which will tell you only tpé plainly that the teacher's examplefias had iteveffect. Again, notice the influence that ‘an intemperate, gain bling, @anting; or otherwise diasipated teacher has on the gnofality of his pupils, and you will find that by his actions, by hisexample, he has instilled inte their minds and hearts. that, » sebich Fears of goed. example will not, eradicate, that. which gives 4 bce pleasure to nong bat Satanor his emissaries. Thereare few but know that these are facts, still it isian undeniable fact, that there are school officers~and we know whereof we eak—who engage teachers whom pi a are, morally, HO more fitted to be the instructors or guides of their children than ia the most degraded inhabitant of San Quentin. Can they reconcile sach actions with their oaths to discharge their duty. to the best of their ability? The moral standing of teachers is, under our local trusteo system, which we ‘consider radicaily wrong, but little considered. All that at present seems necessary for a teachet to possess, is a certificate granted by some Board of Examination. Having that it seems he may overstép the bounds of common decency, and still be a teacher; may be an open disgrace to the profession, and yet claim the fraternal friendship of those who are striving to combat vice as wéll as. ignorance. If those whose duty itis to look after the general welfare of the schools do not take heed of the moral standing of teachers, then we may expect that the profession of teaching will continue to -be held in the contempt that itnow 1s in some parts of Nevada county.

As soon as Page was selectéd, they renewed their cry of ‘‘railroad.’’ It was apparent to any careful observer that they had paved the way in advance of the nomination, so that they could apply their pet term to the successful aspirant, whoever he might be.

Is it not a little remarkable that the Sacao ‘rameuto Union cannot furnish the soreheads of San Francisco with a candidate who will stand, or has the material at command of the Sacramento buzzard been exhausted in the production of chickadee Coggins. You know it would be so easy for the Union to tharge Alvord with being a tool of the corporation fur refusing the nomination ef the soreheads, Coggins is too thin for a Congressman now or he might be sent tu San -Francisco to supply the want of the Bulletin.
