The com mittee felt that to Mr. Maguire's manage ment was owing to the ill odor into which the High School had fallen. He desired that on the third Tuesday of next month a spe cial meeting of the Board be held, and the evidence be printed. - . Mr. Money, of the Twenty-sixth, desired .that,Mr. Magtdre should be present before the - committee. , - Mr. Freeborn said that Mr. Maguire had beennotified thatthe examination was about to be made, and he had not been present. Mr. Mclntyre wanted to know how the _charges had been made, and at whose insti .gittion.- There was something in the matter that he couldn't understand. The speaker did not approve of the manner in which the Iriglifidiool had been conducted of late, bat be didn'tl like the ;proposed method of `remedying the evil. Mr. Scheide moved as a substitute for the resolution as above, that a special commit tee be appointed to examine into the affairs of the High School,and to report at an early day. .; This was withdrawn. Dr. Nebinger slefended Mr, • Maguire, charging the committee With' - holding star chamber proceedings. The Chair called Dr. Nebinger to order, protesting against porsonalities'of any kind. Mr. Freeborn denied every word asserted by Mr: Nebinger as to , the secret character of the sessions of the committee. Mr. McManes did not know Mr. Maguire, "Suchwanted to have him present when Such testimony is again taken. The speaker would not sustainproceedings of this ex parte character. If Mr. Maguire is the wrong - man for the place then he should be ttlintid'out. ' Mr. Freeborn said that the character of the testimony had been made known to him. =Re could have been present if he de sired. He never asked a question about it, simply saying that the same men who now'reprehended him applauded him before. Mr. McManes said he had read a portion of .thelestimong taken, and if it were true he would - vote to put him out. - But he wanted Mr. Maguire to be present and have a chance to defend himself. Dr, Nebinger said that if after a special examination at which Mr. Maguire was present, he found that the prejudice against the High School was the fault of Professor Maguire, then he would say, in God's name let him go out from it ! Mr. Rittenhouse said that four years ago' 'a special committee held twenty-five meet ings, and reported against Mr. Maguire, that the interest of the institution required. his removal. _ • . Mr. Elkin declared that the devotion given to the High School by Mr. Freeborn! was beyond all praise. No gentleman: -could- be more devoted to its interests., Though a member of the Leg,islature, he, ••never missed a meeting of this Board. He could not be charged with prejudice, nor could the. motives.of any of the committee be impugned. The resolution to refer the report.to a spe cial committee of_ftve was agreed to. • The election of several teachers was now conftrmed, wnen, after some matters of no • public interest, the Board adjourned.
