tigattall the departments of the Central Jlieh
School, toaether with the report of the Com
mittee on said school, reported as follows:
That it hat given tho saino its carolul attention.
The Committee U not disposod to go into detail, but
is ol the opinion that moot, it not all, the difficulties
which now exist, and which lesson the usefulness of
the Institution, are to be attributed to a want of har
monious action among the members of Iho faculty;
end believing this cannot be restored under its pre
sent management, it recommends that the faculty be
entirely reorganized. The Committee further re
commend that no gentleman at present connected
with the school, other than as provided lo by tho
accompanying resolutions, nor a Principal of any of
the public Grammar echools oi this city, shall be
eligible tor the position ol Principal. The Committee
a'to recommend that application be made to the
next Legislature tor the pasna?e of an act by which
put Us may be admitted into the Central High
School from private as well as public Grammar
Schools of this city ; provided, that such applicants
shall pass a satisfactory examination. The Com
nittce offer the following resolutions:
R tolttd. That the Secretary or this Hoard be and Is
Titreby Instructed to notiiT the members ol the Faculty
of the Boys' Illeh School that their term of service will

Northern Home for Friendless Chil
drenInteresting Anniversary. The exer
cises connected with the Fi teenth Anniversary
of the Northern Home lor Friendless Children
took pice at the Rev. A. Oookinau's church,
Twentieth and Spring Garden streets, last even
ing, in the presence of au audience which tilled
the spacious editice to its utmost capacity, not
even standing room being attainable long before
the time of commencing arrived.
Rev. E. W. flutter, D. D., presided. The
opening song, "We are coming, pladly coming,"
was sung by the children in tine style, after
which a fervent prayer was olfered by Rev. A.
Cookman, which was followed with an intro
ductory by a lit'.le three-footer, whose style and
delivery elicited the applause of the audience.
An abstract of the report ot the Board of Mana
gers was read by Dr. Hotter, alter which Mr.
Mitcheson, Secretary of the Board of Trustees,
with most commendable consideration,presented,
witbout readinir, the annual report. From this
we learn that, d urine the past year, 170 children
have been admitted to the institution. Of this
number 109 have either been placed in comfort
able homes, or returned to their parents. One
hundred and twelve children have been admitted
into the Soldiers' and Sailors' Orphans' Home.
The w hole number of children in this depart
ment on May 1, 1866, was 175, mating an aggre
gate in the two Homes ol 32X
The Rev. P. S. Henson followed in a most
toucbins and powerful appeal to the audience
in beball ot the Home, an appeal which was lis
tened to with treatbless attention, and which
had a telling effect upon tne collection taken
immediately after. At this point a proposition
was made by a treutleman a member of Mr.
Cookmau's church to raise $500 by twenty-five
dollar subscript tons. The proposition wai
promptly accepted by some ten other members
of the -aDje leuurch, and Mr. Cookman was ap
pointed treasurer, with a kroner assurance that
the remainder would be speedily forthctmiofr.
Rev. Dr. Beadlu lolloped m an excelleut thoiurh
brief address, which was well received by the
audience.
The recitations, dialogues, and siupng by the
children were admirable, it 1 rarely that chil
dren ot such tender years, mid with such slender
opportunities of obtaining a knowledge of the
art ot sineing, acquire sucl proficiency as was
shown by these oiphaus iud friendless little
ones last night. Their voic-s blended beautifully
with the tones of the Jine oriran. which was pre
sided at bv a L'ei.tlcnuin u luwi' well-known nnmi-
rat abilities and tine execution are familiar to J
our citizens. The voiuutnrv performed during )
me collection was a mas'er euon, wane ine pre
lude to the "Mountain Horn," and the interludes
in the same piece, were grand. It is a source of
regret that he is not more frequently heard in
public. The applause which followed th- reci
tations, singing, and playing wus the best evi
dence ot their merits.
The appearance and deportment of the chil
dren were creditable iu the highest degree. They
were all neatly aud comfortably clad, and be
haved themselves with a propriety seldom seen
on occasions of this kind. Those having charge
ol them deserve all praise for their attention to
the cleanliness, deportment, and general com
iort ot these friendless ones.
The exercises of the evening were conducted
by A. M. Spangler, who instructs the children in
singing, and who has given to this department a
large share of his time during the past year.
As a whole, the anniversary was a decided
success. The utmost orler prevailed, notwith
standing the crowded condition of the church,
and although the exercises weie protracted to a
lute hour, the interest of the audience did not
flag for a moment. All seemed unwilling to
leave, many of them lingering In the church
long alter the "good night song" was suug by
the children, and the benediction pronounced.
The Infant School Society. The
thirty-ninth anniversury of the Infant School
Society of Philadelphia took place yesterday
niorn'ne, in the South Street Presbyterian
Church School-room, South street, above Ele
venth. A goodly number of smiling little ones
participated on the occasion, which was one of
pleasure and profit. The exercises, which con
sisted of singing, recitations, etc., passed off in
a manner t-atitttctorv to all present. The exer
eites clearly proved tbut the labors of the teach
trs weie Lot ju vh iu
Firfp. The roof of a dwelling In Gideon
Da. e, Wood street, above Eighth, was slightly
damaged by fire about three o'clock yesterday
afternoon.
About five o'clock a slight fire occurred in a
bouse at the rear ol No. 1115 Sopnln streef,
caused by some boys setting lire to some shav
ings in the cellar.
About the same time the roof of house No.
81M Callowhill street wns slightly damaged by
Hie. It caught from the sparks of a steam
engine.
The Delaware Steam-Engine, while on the
way to this fite, ran Into a telegraph pole in
South street, below Nineteenth, breaking the
pole and the wire attached to it.
About 7 o'clock last evening a tire broke out
in the extensive flve-tory buildings Nos. 22
and 24 N. Fourth street. The entire buildings,
except the basement and the ground floor of
No. 22, were occupied by John Cochrane, whole
sale dealer in white goods and notions. The
ret of the premises were the store and factory
of George H. Ilentzel, who makes military
goods and trimmings in General, upon an ex
tensive scale. The fire Is supposed to have hi-en
caused by Hcntzcl's engine, which was in the
cellar, under a part ot Cochrane' store. A
dense smoke gave rise to the alarm so dec so
that, when the liremen arrived, it w s almost
impossible to enter the house without strangu
lation. The firemen set about their work, and
at the end of an hour the flames were sutidued,
and the premises of Mr. Cochrane sutitrated
almost to pulp.
Mr. Cochrane held a stock, nearly all recently
purchased, amounting to about $70joi)0. All the
white goods, linens, etc., were in the cellar; the
lighter goods w re upon the ground floor. The
insuiance, which will nearly cover tho loss,
which, however, cannot be estimated at pre
sent, is thus: Etna, Hartford, $.".000;
North American, Hartford, $10,000; City
fire, Hartford, $."000; North American,
New York. $."i(K 0; Springfield, Massachusetts,
$-.000; Arctic, N. Y., $5000; Niagara, N. Y.,
$6000; Corn Excharge, N. Y., $5000; Continental,
N. Y., $:000; Washin:ton, N. Y., $501)0.
Tho damage to the building is not very mate
rial. The Mestrs. Hent.clA Co. lese little, prin
cipally by water. Mr. Cochrane has been in
business nineteen years, and lor the first time
experienced a visitation of this character.
Tolioe Items Aliened Extensive For
geries. Two men were arraigned yesterday
morning, by United States Deputy Mar
shals Waram and Schuyler, before Recorder
Eneu, on the charge ot having committed ex
tensive forgeries in Pittsburg or Allegheny
City. The prisoners were taken into custody
by the officers in this city, on Monday after
noon, and were committed by the Recorder
yesterday to await a hearing, to take place to-
aay. it is alleged mat on tne lBth ot February
last a check lor $1300, purporting to have been
drawn by Bernard Gray, a wealthy drover, was
presented at the Allegheny Savings Bank, and
promptly cashed. Some time after this, another
check, for $2110, was presented and paid.jMr. Gray
subsequently called at the bank to draw seve
ral thousand dollars, when he was informed that
his account was overdrawn. An examination of
the books and checks revealed the forgeries,
bnt attempts to arrest the parties were made
in vain in that section of the State. They
were traced to Salem, Ohio, but from that
place nothing is known about them. The
Uiited States authorities have a charge to
pieler aeainst the prisoner". It will be inves
tigated before a United 8tates commissioner.

the stables of Mr. Conklin, on Jnvne street, near

answer by Alderman Beitler.
