School Commz'ssz'oners.———\Ve presume that
the publicexpectation is general, that the next
Legislature will appoint a School Commission
er in the place of the presentincumbent. The
following remarks on this subject are from the
Litclificld Enquirer of this week :
“A Commissioner of the School Fund
will also be appointed, we suppose, du-
ring the approaching session. Mr. Beers
has held this office :1‘ out a quarter of a
century, and he has discharged its duties,
_ for auglit we know, as faithfully and ad-
vantageously to the State, as any gentle-
man would. 30th political parties have
continued him in this responsible trust
uti il he has arrived at an age when he
needs the repose and comforts of private
life. F(ll'('Sl.'9lllg that Mr. Beers could
not, from his advanced a_9_'e, tnticli longer
serve the State, the Legislature, in 1845,

The \Vliigs talc about Gen. Taylor for

his political principles,for they know noth-

Not. so-——but because, in the discliarge of his
duties as a soldier, he has shown himself to be ;
head and shoulders above the average of men,
in all the qualities which command the admira-
tion of his countrymen, and which show him
to be \v ‘ll fitted for the highest office in their gift.
The war has developed the character and ca—'
pacity of the man. The war is infanious in its
“origin-——but Gen. Taylor is an agent of the law

I’rogrc.s-s of the II'ar.—Little of impor-
tance relative to the operations of the
Army, have come to hand since our last.
Accounts from Vera Cruz, to the 10th of
April, have been received by way of New
Orleans and Havana. Gen. Qtiitman had
returned from Alvarado, to the camp: near
Vera Cruz, leaving everything quiet at that
place. Between Sand 10,000 U. S. troops
embarked from Vera Cruz for Jalapa, on
the 8th and 9th. Report says, that Gens.
Vega and Santa Anna in‘end to dispute
their passage, both at the National Bridge,
ten leagues frorn Vera Cruz, and at Cerro
Gordo, which place the latter is fortifying
-— and although it is reported that the
Mexicans have a force of some 12,000
men, we have no fears for the fate of our
iirmy. It is gratifying to learn that no
einbarrassments are likely to affect the
progress of the campaign, so as to prevent
the advance of General Scott into the
interior beyond Jalapa-—tliat nearly 6,000
troops will be placed on the banks of the
Rio Grande, before the close of the pres-
ent month. Forty-one companies of the
ten new regiments, amounting to 3,224
men, are already en route for the army in
Mexico, and will reach there in time to
releive the 12 months men, before their
enlistments expire. This last intelligence
comes from the \Vashington Union, andis,
of course, official.
, The arsenal at l\'a;-‘liington city fired;
no salute for the victory of Palto Alto ;E
it fired no salute for the victory of Resacaé
de la Palma; it fired no salute for the
victory of Monterev; it fired no salute for
the victory of Bucna Vista, but it fired a
salute for the victory of Vera Cruz! All
this is very easily understood. The Ad-
ministration has no desire to glorify Gen.
Scott, btit it hopes, by sounding the prai-
ses of his exploits, to throw into compar-
tive obscurity the brilliant achievments of
the feared and hated Taylor.
