Mr. Hbermati ami McCenibey cunubur ated Mr. Hlay maker, and argui'd Hiat the j.initurM earned all tlie be.itd paid them, their labera duriug vacation being very onerous, including as it tlecn, whituwaNh lug, Hcrubhing, cleaning unci lavuigcarputH and much ether labor.

II. Ilutlur it Ce. Mibmitted te the oemmlttco ou text books aud coiuhe of itiHtriictiei), of which Mr. J. M. JohuHteti, was thou chairman, their new readers, for examination, lu doing se they oll'eied, in thu ovent of a change being madu aud their new books adopted, te take every book of the old scries which was then either in tlie hands el pupils or iu possession of the beard in exchange for a new one of the same grade. A like offer wan made nt that time by another llrm engaged in publishing school hoeka. The outmnittee did net feel at that time any overw helming noecsaity for a ohauge and did net consequently recommend any. Wheu K, 11. Ilutlur it Ce. came te pros their new book ou the attention of this beard iu tbe latter part of l.ibt April, their agent was asked whether his house would put in the new series ou the iiaine terms ollerod the year before Ue replied that it would be impossible te de e aa the publishers of school books bad entered into a combination with an agreement net te substitute new books for old onus in any district desiring a change except at such prices ami en such tonus as had been agreed upon by mid combination. ThiB agreement, a very excellent ene, it in admitted ler the jmbllnbers, this beard is asked te uudorse by adupliug a new series of readers at the present time. I have roaaeti te beliove that the combina tion cannot be maintained for moie than a year, unless it should unfortunately hap pen that it may be supported by such ac tion en the part of the school beards throughout the country, as this lnard Is uew ivsked te take. I am fully convinced that thu adoption of any series of readers at thu present time would be net only unwise, but also unpiat te tlie taxpayers and patrons e( the schools who would be made te bear thoexpouso of tbe exchange an oxpense which has here tofeio been mostly bome liy publishers who desired te substitute their books fur theso already in use In a dlntriet. Fer the purpese of recommending that ue adoption of readers for theso new iu use iu the Lancaster eity school district be made at the proeent time, this miuerity report is most rcBpoetlully Mibimueu.

The whelu number of teachers employed including the special teauhers of music aud drawing was 74 ; thu nutnber of pupils etitiillcd in ull the public schools, exclusive of thu night schools was l,i:J3 ; adding theso attending the latter, the grand total is l,;i.i;!.

I'lie fem.tle secondary school ou Seuth Duke street was entirely tee large for two teachers, and lei tlie oeming tetiu, either a large number of pupils should be tram -fened thence te I'riuce aud Chestnut, where there are tee few for the number of teachers employed, or oue of the teaohers from l'ritice ami Chestnut should be trans ferred te Seuth Duke street. The easiest, and iu my opinion the best disposition, is te transfer the pupils. Uiiurfe ul study. The receut agitation for a ohauge of text books iu reailiug suggests the luquiry wbethur semctblug mure tbau a mere ehaugu from one book or series te another should, net be attempted. Is our practice of ix readers tbe beat .' Would it net be butter te substitute for all above the fourth reader uxureibt-s iu declamation, recitations of select passages iu prose aud poetry, and the study el some standard author in history or biography .' As it is, our pupils' leadiug is aimless s.iuuteriug among sumps of line literatim) without any cllert at retention, and ue suspicion that U ought te enter into future acquisi tions aud make a component part of their literary study. Our course in history and natural science for all soheols below the hiiib is as yet very weak. We provide a muagre course in the history of the United States, but iguore that of all ether countries a process which renders auy thorough knowledge of the history of our own impossible. The study of botany should begin iu the second division of thu soceudary schools, and the same may be siid el zoology. The languages should be studied imme diately en outeriug the high soheols and uet as uew only at the beginning of tlie second year. Our course of drawing, as regards the soheols fur boys, could ami should be madu mere practical by substituting mechanical aud geometrical for industrial (hawing thu useful belore the oruameutal. l.eiturep. During the term just passed thu professeis of Fiaukliu ami Marshall cel lege each cordially icspoiuled te the in vitation of the eity superintendent te deliver a lecture te thn pupils of the high schools. Thesu lectures, ou subjects oheeen by tbe professors and taught iu our high schools, were given free of charge, as an earnest of geed will en thu part of the college tewatdsthu public soheols, aud ate au ovidenco of hearty oe-opothtlon between thn two kinds of educational institutions. The perfect success of the uxpenmeut would I ully justify the beard iu making au arraiigemuut with thu faculty for oue or uieru regular ceuises of lectures en such terms aud at such times as may bu agreed upon, which would go far tewatds plaeing our high schools iu the very llrst rank of such institutions. MKllt actlliel.. The object of our night schools Is te uflerd young persons duprived of the pr'.vileiie of atteuding our day- schools educational advantages adapted te their circumstances and stage of advance ment. That such soheols are needed both our special act, aud the general law prove, ami the large attoudatieo duriug the term gave ovidenco that the youth of both sexes are willing te avail thomselvos of the opportunities ollerod. Hut thusu schools as new conducted may very prop erly bu called ungraded, unerganised gatii prim's, tee lame at lirst, but rapidly dwindling, he that they are without doubt tliu most costly ami the least ollleiuut el all our soheols. Few pupils of the grade of our secondary schools could be persuaded te attend, or oeuld have their Intellectual wants supplied. The teachers' aoquaint aequaint aoquaint auce with their pupils is necessarily the must limited, aud the whole management the meat crude. I have long beuu of the opinion, and oxperieuce here aud olsu elsu where tends te ceullrni me iu it, that it Is Inexpedient te oblige ull who wish te attend night school te cemu te one point, te limit thu course te reading, writing aud arithmetic aud te pay the satnu salary re- gardlesB of the number of pupils who attend aud the pregress made.
