Ths remaining five hundred thousand bring united with thn present property of Franklin College might constitute a permanent fund, the annuo! in come o' which would not fall tar short of tony-five thousand doilara." The amounts which the Diepateh suggests aa • donation to^hs three "denominational college*" above named, are one hundred and fifty tt ousand dollars each. The objection which wa entertain to this plan is, that It reverses tbe order of import ance which we attach to the several objects to bo attained—it regards aa matters of "primary” importance considerations which we look upon as inferior tnd secondary end far behind the greet deaiderstum which should take precedence of all other*. In our esuinalion, the fund should be primarily devoted to tbe establishment of free public schools in every neighborhood throughout tbe 8late, even if thie tekea every dollar of it. Let Una all-important object be Aral attained—not niggardly or capriciously, but bountifully and beyond the possibility of failure- and then, if any portion of the fund ia left, let il he appropriated to the education of leueheri and in such other worthy ends us rusy ecem moat deserving ; but let those latter appropriations he contingent in their perpetuity upon the adequacy of the free school fund to <upply every part of the Hints at all times with schools and teachers. The college at Athena ia certainly a Htato insti tution of much value and Importance, an 1 evt ry ci'ixen of Georgia should rejoice in its prosperity and progress. So are the three denominational colleges mentioned, school* of very high character and graat usefulness ; but wo inaiat that the rule of legislation should he "the greatest good to the greatest number,” and that the great boon of free schools in every county and district should not be Imtardad or impaired by devoting the funds ol the Slate to any other object until they am drat liberally and permanently provided for. Wo have long thought that some of our Southern Stalee have put "the yawl before the ateuinboat” in their legislation upon the ulijcot of echoole. Borne of them have colleges very handsomely and permanently upported by the State, hut are wholly defi cient in free primary schools. In their endoavora to provide for the "finished” ed ucation of the few, they have neglected altogether the instruction of the great mass, or have left themselves without the mesne to provide for them efficiently and adequate ly. Our sister State, Alabama, furnishes a notable instance of this kind. She baa built end endowed, at a very great expenae, a palatial institution for the care of the insane; but she has not the resources ade quate to th# estahlishmant of an efficient common school system. Had she huabsnded her resources with a view of providing, first and foremost, for the free education of the great masses of the children of the Htate, she would to-day have been much nearer a con an miu at ion all-easnntinl to her true do ’elopmenf, progrer* and renown. But, over looking the needs and merits of the great bulk uf her paople, she chose first to legir- late for the unfortunato few, whose hapless condition In individual cases ia well calcu lated to Arouse oar moat intense sympathies, but whuae claims to State aid should no er- thclcea have bean held in abeyance t > Inoee of the general mu" who constitute nineteen- twentieths ol tier paople. Georgia lina in like tuaiinei provided liberally for the unfor tunate tew before doing anything for the education of hei uniiistructcd masse*. The policy is a wrong one—-however deserving of aid the exceptional unforlunal« classes may he—and we trust that a thorough reloriu iu tbia particU'at may be instituted when Georgia C4>i.11.lets ti.r great and im- portent work of edut -till * all the children III her borders Nor do wa much l.n liberal State aid to • gee,” even if that o disconnected from •' The total severance should he a distinguishing characteristic of thie country. A proposition to extend State id to either a Methodist, Baptist or Pres byterian college alom -nuld be justly ob jected to as invidiou d partial, and the union of the three in one measure of favor does not alter the principle. There ere still other religious denominations that would have just cause to complain of such die- criminations—whose members would be taxed to euppoit favored rivals—and the coupling of thn three strongest sects together would have nothing but the weight of num bers to recommend it; it would partake too much of the corrupt Hog-rolling" system of legislation. In addition to this, if it ia in- that these colleges shall educate a number of young men ae teachers, in con sideration of the State aid proposed, this too would be objectionable ; for common justice all demands that teachers ao educated by the bounty of the 8tete should be altogether free from sectarian prejudice or bias.

The Sun ie, we believe, the only pa per of this city (or perhaps of thia State) that has yet joined ill this cry ; hut ws deem it proper, nevertheless, to refer to a few facts that conclusively disprove it. As we hove said. Hbult, the Democratic candid: te, tometime during the afternoon published a handbill, dated 13 o’clock on the day of the election, in which he slated that his friends could not obtain access U> the polls to vole, ami therefore lie withdrew his name. Two or three fact.i. apparent from the returns, sufficiently expose this pretencr. (u the first place, the vote ws< the largest overcast in the city—• bowing that no por tion of the voters had been excluded; ill the next place, nearly all the increase over th* vole ol the last Mayor's election wa* in the 8th ward, where Mr. Hhull's friends polled for hiiu d,4'28 votes against < illy 121 for Mayor Mwauti! Again, Hliutt, who pretend ed to withdraw, received lully as large n vole as the aggregate ol the candidates lor Gouncilmrn on the ticket with hiro, und they did not withdraw. We have carefully compared the vote in each ward, and find remarkably little difference ; in some Hliutt had a few more voles than Ins candidate lor Gouncilmen, in others a few less, and in others still the vote was precisely the same- The truth is, he got about all the votes his party had, snw he was very badly beaten, and then limped off' crying "slop thief I” Here is the official return of the election, compared with that or 1860. Any one im partially scanning it will see tbat there was no remarkable diminution of the vole in any ward, and that hy far the most remarkable increase waa in the St h waid, tv hero Hhutt appears to have had thirty-odd friends to every one of Hwann’e, and where, there, fore, if there was any fraud, the latter could not have r mutinied iu Deduct the 1603 increase in thia ward, and them ia left loss than one thousand increase of the vote of (he city in all its wards in two years : 1 "HO.

Wr ^ 1 * ,n - H,r » nn - N'ulU This announcement we regard aa chiefly important because it indictfoa the determi nation of the Administration to punish the friende and reward the enemies of Douglas tu the bitter end.

Congress ia not the treaty-making pawrr * t | lc Sun hs in this country, and in no other way than by treaty can Cuba bn purchased of Hpain.

Wr have little doubt that thl* i* the truth, but tb#a# disturbances were nut to be compared in atrocity with those ol the Foreign Democracy ol the Hih ward, or their attempt to take p >*»rs*ion of tin- 9th ward by violence and bloodshed.
