of the Sixteenth, and K.J. Lehman of the Twen
tieth sections. These were sworn into ollice.
An election for President was entered into,
when Mr. M. II. Stanton was unaniinoiu.lv
elected. Mr. Stanton on taking the chair made
the follow lug short speech:
Gentlemen of the Board of Public Education:
The unanimity of your action this morning Indi
cates, as I look upon It, your entire approval of tlie
manner In which 1 have discharged my oiIlci.U
duties during the year just closed upon us all for
ever, lu thuukmg you, gentlemen, lor tliis uua.it-
mous endorsement of my course lu the past, 1 wiil
only detain you long enough to say thai I auall enter
upon my duties as jour presiuin oillcer f or 1-U
vi itli a lirm determinations to recognize lu the dis
charge of my high ( nice no interest save the bet
and highest interests of the publio schools com
mitted to our common care. Permit me a?aiu to
thank you kindly lor your handsome couiptiuieut,
anutowisnyou an, my friends, a happy jsew l ear.
Mr. llalliwell was unanimously re elected

ine oiner minor ouices were also re-elcc.ed.
Mr. Oratz, of tLo Eighth section, moved to
proceed to an election for Superintendent of
.MUSIC.
Mi.Elkln, of the Seventh section, eaid that
the board was not ready to elect that oillcer at

amendment a set of resolutions filing the elec
tion for the stated meeting in February next,
und asking that in the meantime the Committee
on Estimates reconstruct the salaries of the
various officers, t as to bring them within
the 1 10,000 appropriation oi Councils.
Mr. VVldener, of ile Twentieth section, West,
thought that the enaction should not be put oil
because of the appropriation. The board dues
not bind itself to the salary in case of aa elec
tion, if Councils make no appropriation.

of the Twenty-second bectiou. aud accepted by
Mr. Widener, that all teachers' salaries continue

priation be made.

Nkw YfcAii'n Day Saturday night, without
nny exception whatever, was the duBest New
Year's eve that has been experienced in this
citj-; Indeed, there was no excitement more
unusual than on any previous Sa'qrry mlit.
The Maj or'fl Oider reference to masque
rft"'uit nartles and blowlo ' of horns wa
observed to the very letter, and it was not until
the old year bad departed that the time-honored
custom oi discharging weapons was commenced,
and ecn then it lasted but a few minutes.
The various Methodist cnurches were well
filled with thoee who were anxious to sen the
new veav come in. The usual ceremonies at
tended the event. At the Temperance Blessing
Father Heritage was surrounded by a large
number of converts, all of whom narttcipated in
lOVMcsirt as the mninlght hour was tolled.
To-dav is lust as du'l as Saturday eve. lue
city is overcast with lowering clouds, and busi
ness has been pretty generally suspended. The
streets are well thronged, and at every corner,
almost, stands a policeman who looks frowning
at all youthful pedestrians. There is no life
perceptible anywhere, and Philadelphia, as she
bns been styled by our Eastern neighbors, is
aimost a City of the Dead. This afternoon
there are the usual matinees at the numerous
places of amusement, which are well attended.
