This more leg in the Common Pleas, Judge Allison de
lives d the !Muni log opiuiun 'Ill.; petition of Mary A.
cMauna, prays the showanco of a writ of mandolins,
commanding the Controllers of the First School District
of Pennsylvania to direct their proper officers to certify
to the City Controller of the Gig, of Philadelphia her
election and due wielifiaation as pa iucipal teacher of the
-nand Vernon Boys' Grammar School. of the Third elea.
don of the First School Distract, to which position she
was elected by the Board of School Directors, of the afore
said Third dottier, and that thu Controllens officially
recognize her as P rinclpal Teacher of the said schooL
The material allegations of the petition ore admitted by
the Controller; no question is raised auto ' the fact of the
due election of Mrs McManus. Her
~,educational
cations were not only not denied, tad admitted to he be
yond dispute. It is conceded Burt no other objection is
made by the Contrellar to giving the required certificate,
except that of the sex of the petitioner. It is first to he
considered whether the as presented is one in which
the relief sought can granted.
It is elementary law, that a mandamus. though a pre•
rogative writ, anti demandable of right, is justly said to be
grantable at discretion. 1 liarrio 75-1 Jones lief. It is
Lot exercised in favor of the applicant, unless some ittet
and legal-purpose may be answered by it. It was intro
duced to afford 'elle( In all cases in which the law
has provided no 'specific remedy for a wrong, and
. was
iutended to prevent disorders from a t allure
of justice. The law requires the petitioner
to' establish a specific legal riithl, as well
as the want of a specific legal rowed;,'. It is on
of the well settled principles that a mandamta s will not lie
where the law has given another ample remedy • coca ap
plications are uniformly refuted where the party has
another specific means of redress; I, Mendell, 3113: 1,
Crow 417; 1 Peters, 137; as Binh. 2 0 32; S W. LMe; 1,
Harris, 75. If, therefore, the applicant in this case has
any other legal remedy for her alleged wrongs, this ap
plication must of necessity be refused,.
It was ably argued against the allowance of the writ to
the petitioner that she had a complete means of relief by
suit against the city, that it was not necessary for the
Controlltte to certify her election to the City Controller,
to enable her to obtain payment of her salary, as Prinel
pal of the School, a o which she has been elected by the
sectional Board, and of which she is now in charge,
hat she could by suit against the
city obtain the compensation to which
she makes claim, if her right is by her election vitae
lished, and that under the principle announced as govern
log apilicatlinua of this kind, the prayer of this petition
must be denied.
But this assumes that the only object of the petitioner
is to secure payment of the sum at $1.500, which is tiled
as the compensation of a principal teacher of a Boys"
Grammar School, an assumption not warranted by the
acennenta and prayer of the petition.
The petitioner also claims that she is entitled under
the law, to have issued is her behalf the evidence of title
to her office, which the law itself prescribes, when in the
fourth section of the act of February 17, had% it directs
the Hoard of Controllers to certify, to the City. Controller
the name and grade of all persons, certified by the School
Directors to the Controllers, who, afteethe paesage of the
act, shall be elected to the position of teacher in the First
school District.
The petitioner also asks that the reepondents shall be
required to acknowledge her proper standing as principal
of a Boys' Grammar School. and grout to her all the
rights and privileges to which she is thereby entitled.
the right to the salary may be tested by suit against the
city, but ouch suit would not compel the Controllers to le
, sue the certificate of her election. The question was ar.
gued on its merit/ and the Controllers ask a definite duct-
Won, on it. After reciting the act of 1818, creating the
Hoare, of Controllem. the Court decides that it la clear
that as the matter now stands the Controllers are not in
a position to invoke the act of 1818 in their refuel to cer
tify the election of the petition's , . It is, however, o a the
act of Feb. 17,1846, that the Controllers mainly depend.
his act gives authority to the Board to establish a system
for the examination of the quiz lift cations of all persons
who may desire to become teachers. It forbids the elec
tion of any one whole not found qualified for tho position,
i. or unless he or she shall have received a certiheate of
qualification, duly issued by tee Controllers after exeunt.
nation. This act was wholly prospective in its operations.
Acting on this authority, the Controllers have adopted a
system of regulations for the examination of persons ap
plying far cor.hicates of qualification to teach in the pub-
Ilc
schools.
An examination of this entire system discloses nothing
which prohibits the board of School Directors from elect
ing a female to the position of Principal of a Boys' Gram.
mar School. Tho Controllers have made no rule which
would prevent the election of the petitioner. She was en
titled to have her name and grade and office as a teacher
in one of the public schools, certified to the City . Control.
ler, which Wee doubtless done at the proper time. Kulo
eleven makes eligible to election to the position of teacher
general y, without having obtained a. certificate
from the Controllers. The Controllers might have
made a rule in regard to tae examinatim
of all persona as to their qualifications as teachers in other
:than the school to which they had been elected, but this
they did not do. On the contrary they provided that
the rules in regard to certificates of qualification should
not apply to persons who were teachers on the 7th of Feb
ruary. Via, and added "said teachers , may he promoted
from time to title without being required to puss an ex
amination,"
-', The case, as it now stands, shows that Mrs. McManus
had- all the prescribed qualifications tor the position to
which she hail been elected, and there was no rule to pre
vent her being elected. The question whether the power
of the Board of Controllem is 'sufficient to umbras° a
regulation pruscribingthe sex of teachers is not presented
by all that is now before us. To sustain the position of
principal of a Boys' Grammareichool undoubtedly includes
other qualifications than the mere possession of know
ledge. It includes qualificatione moral and physicsl. as
well as intellectual and acquired, and, beyo ad doubt, the
ability to govern; to rule in such a way as to enforce die ,
cipline and maintain authority is an essential qualifica
tion; to teach in a public school.
I throw out these suggestions, because we hold that the
Controllers may, for sufficient cause shown, in the
absence of any rule, refuse a certificate of election. In
the case of 'Mrs. McManus no such reason exists.
Her entire fitness , wee conceded, and a
generous testimony giVen to her morth
as a woman and her ability as a teacher. ' This being coo
ceded, we are of the opinion that no su ff icient reason has
stn shown against granting the pray or of the petitioner,
the Controllers had the power to make regulations
hioh would have excluded .ber, they have not exercised
it,and until they do so, that question cannot fairly arise.
We think the certificate asked for ought to be issued.

HONOLULU Hawaii, April 15, by way of San
Francisco, HONOLULU ,
8, 1868.—{The following is addi
tional to the account upon our inside pages]
The vole,ano is the well-known Manna Loa,and
it has an elevation of 13,758 feet. On the 27th of
March last the new eruption commenced, and
bas continued np to the latest dates.
For fifteen days the district Rona has been the
centre of motion for the great eruption. A
gigantic stream of molten lava is flowing from
the summit of Manna Loa across the lands of
Kakuka and Poakiai to the sea at Kaalnala
landing. The slope and part of the summit of
a mountain fifThen hundred feet high have been
lifted up boldly by the earthquake and thrown
over the tops of trees for a distance of over
one thousand feet. At Wahoinee a creek has
opened, extending from the sea. To as high as
tbe eye can reach on the slope of Manna Lou the
lava is from one to seven feet in width, and an
eruption of moist . clay was thrown from the side
of the mountain, between Lyman's and Richard
son's, a distance of two miles and three-quarters,
with a width of one mile, In the short space of
three minutes. This terrible eruption over
whelmed houses, persons and hundreds of ani
mals, and scattered death and destruction
wherever the clay fell.
A column of smoke seven and four-fifths miles
in altitude was thrown out of Mauna Loa, ob
4euring everything for miles around, save where
the bright spiral pillars of fire flashed upwards
from the month of the volcano. The sight was
one of the grandest but most appalling ever wit
nessed.
During the severest shock of earthquake which
took place on the 2d of April, no living creature
seuld stand up for a moment. Immense bodies
of earth were tossed about at great distances.
Not one stone stands upon another as before in
this district. Immense precipices have been
leveled to the earth, and where the ground was
formerly smooth and unbroken for miles around
the earth has been rent asunder and upheaved,
forming gigantic chasms and precipices.
The entire topographical appearance of the
country has been so completely changed that
even those who have lived in the desolated dis
trict all their lives cannot recognize it oy - point
out localities with which they were formerly fa
miliar.
At the present moment the entire group of
irlands is enveloped in a dense black smoke, and
the indications are that Mauna Loa is still in ac
tive volcanic eruption.:

niense r low of Lava—The scene illottg.
inhcons.
HoNottmu, April 15, vLt SAN FRANCISCO. May
1868.--Since writing my last despatch farther
intelligence has been received of the great vol
canic eruption. A vessel has just -arrived from
Hawaii, bringing later accounts of the lava flow
and of the eruption in general.
The first stream of lava broke out from the
crater of Manna Loa, some two miles above the
residence of Captain Robert Brown, and flowed
directly towards it. It came down'the mountain
side in a broad stream, several feet in depth, and
traveled with such rapidity that the family in the
house had barely time to escape, taking away
with them nothing but their clothes. .The path
which they took was perfectly free from lava; but
ten minutes after they had left.it and reached a
point of safety, the entire road was covered with
the fiery stream.
The lava pushed onwards to the sea, and drove
ihe water back with such violence ,hat it be
came agitated a nd convulsed, and huge waves
relict' towards the ocean as if lashed to fury by a
storm.
The scene at the craters was appalling. Huge
rocks were hurled from their mouths, accompa
nied by streams of lava, hot and red, which
attained an attitude of one thousand feet. When
it fell it rushed down the mountain towards the
sea at the rate of nearly ten miles per hour. The
new crater which was formed on the 27th of
March Is over two miles in circumference. It
vomited recto and broad streams of liquid fire,
which illuminated the night for an area of over
fifty miles.
The eruption still continues with unabated vi
olence, and the scone is one of the most terribly
grand that has been witnessed in modern, times.
From the crater of Mauna Loa the huge column
~f smoke continues to ascend, hiding from view
:he skies and dun& and enveloping the entire
country in parti.-1 darkness. Every now and
then thick streams of lava shoot upwards from
the midst of the smoke, illuminating everything

QUEEN'S Horst.. LONDON, May 8, I..M.—Three
other special despatches have Just come to hand.
They are dated thq 10th, 11th and 12th of April,
but have been delayed two weeks in the trans
mission, owing it is presumed, to the confusion
incident to the fact of the sudden termination of
the war which prevailed at the different points of
reception and repetition along the route.
The reports convey a very graphic picture of
the great battle which took place between the
British and Abyssinians on the 10th of April--
Good Friday—previous to the storming of M
dela. As soon as the English advance came in
view the Abyssinian enemy stood forth In grand
array, as if in response to the sight. Thoodoras
opened at once with his mortars on Napier. The
British replied with the setae description of gun.
The fire froodie defences having endured for a
short time t e thousand nve hundred warriors,
setting up lond shouts of Joy and revenge, and
chanting national songs of (xitimpli, dashed with

OUR WHOLE COUNTRY.
Aware of his heavy loss, Theodorue forwarded
a flag of truce to General Na pier's headquarters,
Inquiring on what terms the English would no.
gotiate a peace. General Napier replied that,
speaking in the name of the Queen, hie terms
were merely and strictly an unconditional sur
render. Theodorus, through his envoy, imme
diately said ho would never accept such ar
bitrary terms as that. seeing even his present
defeat, he would prefer to fight to the end. In
conclusion the King requested General Napier
to take the British captives. whom he would
band over to him, and "go away hence" when
they had been all released. The King refused
positively a surrender for himself, and the con
ference was broken off. Magdala was, cones
quettly, "stormed" by the English a few days,
afterwards. During the latest moments of the
fighting after the British assault, and when
driven to his latest stand-point, Theodorue at
tempted suicide on three separate occasions. He
was rendered perfectly furious by his defeats.
The released captives say that they saw three
hundred native prisoners killed by the King's
order on the 9th of AprlL

CHURCH DEDICATION.—The tit. John's German
Evangelical Lutheran Church; Rev. A. Spaeth,
Pastor, located on Fifteenth streot,below Poplar,
will be dedicated to-morrow.- The services will
be all in German. At 10 o'clock A. M. there will
be 'preaching by Revs. C. F. Schaeffer and W. F.
Maim; at 2y l P. M. children's service, conducted
by Revs. S. P. Brobst and F. Mayser, and at 8 P.
M. a sermon by Rev. F.T.Vogelbach. On Monday
evening there will be English service in the now
church, and Rev. F. A. Seiss will deliver a ser
mon.
INl_Aucrous Airs< E F.-A man named Thomas
Evans went to a house at Fifteenth and Ridge
avenue and asked for something to eat. He
was furnished with food and then desired
lodgings. As he could fiot be given - a bed he
was requested to leave. At this he took umbrage,
and alter getting into the street he hurled a
huge stone at some of the inmates of the house,
Tao missiles smashed some of the windows.
Evans was arrested. This morning he was taken
oefore Ald. Pancoast and was held in $6OO bail to
answer at court.
A GOOD SUCOLSTION.— It has been suggested
that the Harbor Police should be provided with a
steam tug to patrol the Delaware river. The
suggestion is a very good one and should meet
with the early attention of the proper authori
ties. The Harbor Police, under the coMmand of
Lieut. Ben. Edger,
have been the means of pre
venting many depredations upon property along
the river front, but the efficiency of the force
would be greatly increased if a steam tug was
provided.
RIERSOWS ASSAIILT.—Pat. Mulligan wad before
Alderman Pancoast, this morning, upon the
charge of assault and battery. On Saturday
night last he was' in a tavern at Twenty-fourth
and Hare streets, and got into a difficulty with
Michael Harding. During the wrangle which
ensued Harding had his thigh broken. He was
conveyed to the Hospital. Mulligan escaped at
the time, and was not captured until last night.
He was committed to answer.
MISSING CIIILDREN.-rTwO little boys named
Charles and Henry Eldridge, sons of L. Eldridge,
residing at No. 722 North Seventh street, have
been missing from home since 7 o'clock yester
day morning, and their parents are much dis
tressed at their prolonged absence.
SERIOUS ACCIDIsNT.—Last night Angina Macket
was driving a cart through Nicetown, when his
horse took fright and made a sudden start.
Macket was thrown off, and the wheels of the
cart passed over his head, severely injuring him.
He was taken to his home in Nicetown.
bITROVEMENT.—The County Fire Insprane
Company, on Fourth street, below2Chestnut, are
now putting a handsome Albert stone front to
their office, and the building will be surmounted
by a Mansard roof, which will give it a very im
posing appearance.
REV. HERRICK. JOIINSOII, D. D., of Marquette,
Michigan, arrived in the city this afternoon, and
will occupy the pulpit of the Washington Square
Church to-morrow morning. He has just ac
cepted a unanimous call to become the pastor.
GOATS CArTerucD.—During last week 22 stray
coats were captured in tbo city. Of that number
12 were redeemed and the remainder wore sold.
The long disputed question with the Sewing
Machine fraternity, as to which is the best ma
chine, has at last been definitely disposed
of and set at rest by the unexpected appearance
among them of that wonderful family machine,
known as the "American Combination Button Hole
and Sewing Machine." It at once carried off the
palm without any ceremony about it, and left its
competitors the question to settle among them
selves at to which is the next best. In this
secondary question the public will feel but little
interest so long as they can be supplied with the
"latest and best" and also the cheapest in the
the market. Another gratifying circumstance
connected with this master-plece of mechanism
Is the fact that it is entirely the product of the
inventive gettitts andmechanical skill of our own
citizens. These machines are manufactured in

The Academy Pictures.
CARL SCIIUSSELE, 81. Mr. W. J. Horstmaan
has permitted to be hung his large and interesting
picture painted last year in France by this capa
ble artist; it is found in the northeast room,
beside the flamboyant "Last Gleam" of Mr.
William Hart, from whose neighborhood its
modest and sober excellence suffers a little. As
the most important American genre painting on
exhibition it deserves considerate attention.
The interior and costumes appear to have been
found among the environs of Strasbourg, whither
the invalid painter has betaken himself in quest
of health, and whore he unwillingly resides in
what ho considers an exile. The headdress of the
Lower Rhine, half German and half French,
decorates the pretty head of the young mother
with its great butterfly of two broad ribbons.
She is offering something in a spoon to a sick
girl in her lap, whose brother and sister ap
proach to show their toys, while the
gray grandsire comes up with an
expression of rustic sympathy and concern. The
curious German oven, plated with tiles and
reaching to the ceiling, where it is embraced by a
pendant clothes-horse, has before it a settle, on
which a cat (too big in the picture) is lying.
Beneath the mirror, and beside the old man's
pipe, hangs a wreath, which seems to tell of
6chool-trinmpbs recently received by somebody
in the family. Our suspicions alight promptly
on the "Sick Pet," with her weazened and preco
cious face, and we detect that she has over
studied herself.
Mr. Schnssele's style has changed since he
went to France, and for the better. Always a
hard student, and a draughtsman with hardly an
American equal, there used to be a heaviness
and inertia about his figures that were depress
ing, and, in some of his attempted lighter sato
, jects, ridiculous. A beefy kind of flesh, a square,
tad, Germanesque character of face, and a look
of practical prose that would have been excessive
in a portrait of Franklin, gave to his sentimental
conceptions an air of sagacity that was disillu-•
sionatirg, and provoked amusement when he
attempted ideal scenes. His figures had some
what of a family likeness. At the same time
they were so firm, so round, so solidly modeled
in a system of large and simple facets, that
there was always something in them to gratify
the artistic sense. They were like granite forms,
somewhat roughly hewn by a master hand.
He has now learned, and very readily too, to
throw around this scholarly knowledge the re
tiring quality of nature; he has improved in the
art of concealing art, and his picture shows an
interesting advance in the way of depth and rich
ness. He has studied abroad, with the cultivated
intelligence of an able painter; in the Louvre and
the Luxembourg he has renewed his
youthful acquaintance with the old
masters of • genre, with Terhurg and
Gerard Dow, and scrutinized the masterpieces
of Frese and Boyer, of Ecouen; at the Great
Exposition he has examined the beautiful domes
tic scenes of Israels, of Amsterdam, the perfect
"Invalide," and other works of Miami, of Wies
baden, and amono - h the Parisians, the exquisite
pastoral subjects of Millet and Jules Breton. Into
the present picture ho has imported qualities
culled from many fields of art, and left behind
him, with great advantage, the schoolboy dog
matism that used to appear sometimes in his in-
Astarte° on a line, or his preparation for a strong
relief. In the "Sick Pet," all is continuous and
harmonious. The figures lose themselves In
shadow, advance into a tempered light, take re
flections from neighboring hues, conneet their
colors and illuminations in a harmonious bouquet,
very muck as in those happy accidental combi
nations of nature before which the artist feels
,himself arrested sometimes, with the instinctive
words, "What a capital effect!" The woman's
face, gracefully inclined, takes a warm transpa
rent shadow that comes in charmingly under-the
rich tone of her coiffure. The child's pale
race, though not quite felicitous in type,
forms a beatiful centre of light for the composi
tion; and the quiet way in which her attitude is
expressed beneath her garments shows ail thee
old mastery of • drawing of Sehussele's more
healthiul and hopeful days. Until we can wel
come him back bodily among us, and nurse him
and make much of him as the moat genial and in
structive of our native draughtsmen, it gives us
great pleasure to take his hand thus in the form
of his handiwork, and to see how completely
bodily ills may be antidoted by the sane and ra
diant mind that masters them.

A Tale of the Tropical
TIM Fal Lay was a lovely maid—
The white of her eve was like marmalade„
Her skin was the blackest of inky blacks,
And her lips were as scarlet as sealing wax.
Bbe wore her hair in a fuzz a-top,
Like a swab (the nautical term tor mop) ;,
Ller ivory teeth were two aleaming rows,
And she carried a skewer in her comely nose.
She loved a sailor (did TIM Val Lay)"
Who bad been on that Wand east away.
Mtn Fat Lay was the child of a king,
But she loved Jack Deadeyes llke anything.
She loved Jack' Deadeyes • but—woe is me
Jack Deadeyes, ho wasn't in love with she ;
For he fondly thought of his lovely Nan
(Who lived at Wapping), did that young max,
And so, alas and alack-a-day •
When an English ship sailed into the bay,
(The_ Lively Betty, a seventy-four),
He took a berth in that man-o-war!
Then Titti Fal Lay (her heart was broke)
Wept- r but never a word she spoke ;
But she skewered herself, did the mournful stai‘i
On the native weapon, a sword-Mx blade.
They buried her under the Bobo tree,
With her favorite kitten along o' she;
And the purple-nosed monkeys sadly rave,
And chew-their tails o'er the maiden's grave.
