Tho regular monthly meeting of the school board was held last evening iu council chamber in the opera house, with Messrs. Given, Zeamcr, Myers, Bruner, Sladi, Steveubou and Auwater present. Mr. Bruner occupied the chair. The minutes of last meeting were read and approved. Mr. earner, of the linance committee, reported as follows : Balance ou lianUat )attrcpoit $333 85 Uccctvol or T. B.

The superintending committeo reported in favor of leasing the room of the Vigil ant fire company for a school room at the price asked 19 per month, and that tho committee had corresponded with Mr. L. C. Eby, of Lancaster, relating to furnish ing school desks, who replied that, they could be furnished at the old price. The former clause iu tho report led to an animated debate. Mr. Auwater op posed leasing the Vigilante' room ; said it was not a suitable place especially for girls ; meu are loafing there continually ; and asked if a new school was really necessary, to r' which Mr. Given replied that it certainly was. Each director iu turn spoke upon tho question, and the moral influence that would be exorted by a school at tho pro posed place foui.d ablo champions in Messrs. Given and Blade.- while the pro ject was opposed bitterly by Mr. Auwater. The superintendent was finally called for his opinion as to the average now in tho schools and as to who was to tako charge of it. lie favored the addition and said that Miss McDowell would teach it. It was finally put to a vote and carried, but Mr. Au water's no" was loud. Upon moliou the superintendent com mittee was authorized to euter into a lease with the Keystone desk company for new desks for tho Fifth stieet school build Mr. Slade, of the text book committee, presented the following : Your committee on text books, to whom has been referred the question of changing the geographies, leport that they havo come to tho conclusion that it would be inexpedient at present to change them and that they wish the adoption of Apple ton's reader, and closed with a resolution embodying tho latter clause. Two agents, representing rival book firms, were admitted in turn. Mr. Jacob Miller, of Harper Bros.', told of the ad vantage over all others this firm claimed for their geographies, while Mr. E. Burke praised Waircu's books on the same sub ject. It was just about to bo decided that a change bo made when Lawyer Given quoted Judge El wood's opinion that a change in books for schools can not be made except by tho adoption of such a change by a joint convention of teachers and directors and ended his lengthy speech with tho remark: "But I do kuow that this board will not change until they hear from the teach ers, for if they do I give notice that such action will be contested and I here announce it I forfeit my seat in this board if I cannot show the law as I have quoted it." Then tho directors asked . Superintendent Ames for bis opin yM ion and ho gave it, and a lengthy one, too. He did not favor a change in tho larger geography, but certainly thought Harper's book by far tho lictt r for primary work, aud quoted the opinion of Misses Bucher, Paine, Nowlen and other teachers of tho primary grade as welcoming a change. This brought Mr. Slade to his feet with question, ' Prof. Ames, did you not say you thought a change at present inexpedi ent ? So your committee reported, and by that report I wish to stand correct." To which Prof. Ames said the report was correct, and sat down. It wan finally decided, just as the clock struck 10, that ' a change and reform " were not needed. A motion was then made to call a joint convention, but this was laid ou the table. So this subject that has caused so much ill-feeling aud filled our local papers with long and ex travagant comments has reached its end. The repairs and supply committee re ported the following bills : L. B. JacClees, slating $ 7 so John Sterllne. 60 posts js 00 i C. Brown, whitewashing 9.o Adam Ulnkle, hauling 75 Jas.Schroeder, laborer. 8 00 H. F.BrunerACo., coal 319 SO All of which were paid, as was also about $10 or $12 for cleaning now being made.

On motion adjourned. Surrendered.

TUB AUGUST JCETEOBS. Tae Celestial Fireworks la the Heaven. The earth is now entering that part of her orbit in which she incurs the greatest liability to encouuters with meteor streams circulating around the sun. The meteoric displays of November, when they occar, are far more brilliant than those now due, but the periodic display from the 9th to the 11th of August is a more certain phenomenon. The annual periodicity of the August star stream, irrespective of the observer's geographical position, shows that the earth at this time plunges into a uniform ring of countless planetary meteors, which apparently di verge from a common point fixed in rela tion to the celestial sphere. The radiant point of the August meteors is iu the con stellation Perseus, and the elements of their orbit as compared by Schiaparelli have been found to agree strikingly with the elements of tho great comet of 1862, and Tempel's comet I of I860. Without assuming that their orbit is absolutely parabolic (an eclipse would satisfy the conditions), yet, in order to make the display recur every year, we must suppose a complete annulus or elliptic stream of these minute plane tary bodies moving round tho sun. The constellation from which these meteors shoot rises late in the evening in the northeast and may be distinguished by a semi-circle of stars forming the bent sword of the imaginary hero. In some years two or three hundred of tho August me teors have beeu counted on a single night. Last night and night before hist star gazers were rewarded by seeing large numbers of meteors. To-night, if tho weather inmains clear, probably a still larger number may be seen. TIIK blliFVLKK ASSOCIATION. They PurclntKo the Shiftier Kngtne House.
