IVo oonoeired that tlo heat moditim through
whioh to view the’ administration Of Professor
Beebe was that of the professors and their labors;
hut that of Proiiatat. Hart wo. deem .to be' better
displayed through its ueatures. Other reasons,
too, for selecting tho latter course, are; that' the
professors of part's administration aro still m the
High School; and, perhaps, would 4 sllke at pre
sent to see oven a favoribleppblleontia.Bm of their
methods abd movements, and the appointments of
many have been comparatively recent. Tho
measures and' evehtsthat have been recorded iu
the two previous articles are the most noted of tho
sixteen years of this administration; hut atUi, r
short' ichouht of those professors who left bofore
their late principal, those gentlemen whose names
have heooms historical in the .records of tho in-
EtUiitios, might' hot ho uninteresting. After
giving a brief account of them wo shall prosont
the departments and duties assumed.by the other
professors, with littlo nota or comment, our object
being mainly to lot the people be acijuaintod with
the* internal history and doings of an excellent in
stitution,- of whioh too many limit themselves to
the contemplation of the outside.
Still in tbs institution are Profepsorh
Vdgdes &na, McJluttric, who were among tho ftp*' i
poiaunenta near tho origin of tho school. A-short !
account of each has already been given in out
third artioto, and it need not bo repeated here.
wilt merely mention the course of study pur
sued in the department of each as last regulated
by Professor Bart, Tho studies-tqaght by Pro- :
we geometry, arithmetic; monsara-' '
tion, and surveying. Those taught.by Professor
McMurtrie are lessons in the sclentifio loxicon, ;
and leotartie in the various branches of fepecml
physios.
George J. Beoker, professor of drawing and pen
manship. was elected as an assistant to Professor .
Beale in January, 1842; and, on tho resignation of
that gentleman, in October, 1844, was appointed to
succeed him. The forte of -Professor Peale was
painting, whilo that of Professor Beoker was pen
manship > though, at the same time, the latter was
Q7ery_wuy qualified to teaoh well all oi the various
kinds of draughting.. Never'have Wo behold a
more nhat or skilful writer at work. * With a
clean page and a carefully aeleoted pen, ho would
dash offiteurlaheSj ornaments, .and figures, with a
freedom that an engraver might vainly attempt to
counterfeit, end with & beauty that he could not
excel. ' Be bad taught ponmanship ‘and book
keeping to classes before ho was appointed.to a*
position in the High-School, and even after his
appointment he continued to te&oh them. His
style.,of penmanship wos original, peculiar, and
very heat and plain. He issued a system com
prising ten. books, which are now familiar to
most of 'the soholarsof Philadelphia, and to many
in the United States. In his system the letter ois
pointed at the top in all of its combinations; the
loops of letters aro well proportioned; in the in and
it. only the last descending stroke is made, heavy,
the angles at the turning points aro not very acute;
a peculiar v is mode by connecting a direct and an
inverted *; and the convenient German fis insisted
upon., Since he left the High'Sobool bo issued a
supplementary number to ms curront sorios, and
al& a splendid work oh Ornamental Penmanship,
which we believe to be the most masterly work of
its kind that has boon issued in America. Tho de
yartment of drawing was considerably extended in
the hands of Professor Booker, and, his course, a
few years after his appointment, included plain and
ornamental ponmanship, book-keeping (Booker’s),
graphics, drawing from engraved models, perspec
tive, drawing from solid object*, ami mechanical
drawing.. Professor Beckor was a busy teacher;
he lost no time, and did not allow his pnpils to lose
any. He wos vory successful' in his department,
and, muoh to the disappointment of the Controllers,
be accepted of a similar professorship in Girard
College, in April, 1853, which position he has con
tinned'to fill, with eminent success, until the pre
sent time.
-Francis A. Brogy, professor of tho Fronch and
Spanish languages, was appplnted in May, 1843, a
few months after the elootion of Professor Hurt to
the Prinolpalship, and resigned his position in
December, 1858, but two months after the resigna
tion of tho same gentleman; so that their terms of
aernoe in the Hign.School nearly equal oaoh other.
Professor Bregy is a native Frenchman, audfor ten
years ho filled the chair of French literature and
the higher mathematics in the College Royal at
Mens. In the High School he succeeded Professor
Deloutte. At first he taught both Fronch and
Spanaeh, but in 1854 Spanish was discontinued. He
has a thorough mathematical' education, and at
various times his services have. been uscfql in
teaching descriptive geometry and algebra.
As teacher, in some rospeots, Professor Bregy
was the very reverse of his predecessor. He. was
always warm, animated, .rapid, and onthusinatio.-
Upon any subjeotho flung himself atonoo in vied las
rea f and the reoitaUous of his classes, always
characterised by impetuosity, and vigor, would
sometimes almost eloocrify like the stir and anima
tion of a battle. His loves and his hates ware in
tense; consequently his praise and his blame wore
earnest, qaiok, and peremptory ; bat in tho midst
of excitement he never ceased to be master of him
salfand of tho momont. His friendship for his
pupils was always fervent and woll-dofined ; and
their attachment for him was equally ardent. Like
Professors Becker and Deloutte, he left the High
School for a professorship in tho Girard College, in
which position be it at present engaged.
Mania H. Boye, professor of chemistry and na
tural philosophy, was elected in November, 1845,
but his whole tuna was not secured by the Board
of Control until May, 1851. Previous to 1851; tho
department of this protestor hod occupied a subor
dluiite position In the School, and instruction had
been limited to the four highest divisions. From
that time to the present this department has taken
rank with tho others, os it deservedly should in a
city so oelebratod for its commerce and manufac
tures, and in a State remarkable for its mineral
wealth and agricultural importance. ■ In 1852, ft
laboratory was attached to the lecture-room, and a
superior achromatic microscope and othor vKluablo
apparatus were famished for the use of pupils in
this department.
Profwasor Boyo was thoroughly verted in all tho
wonders, intricacies, and manipulations of tho
branches ho taught, lie was joint author, with
Professor Booth, of a standard and able work on
chemistry. In tho High School, owing to a combi
nation of natural philosophy and chemistry in one
professorship, his teaching and lectures wero’spa
eifio and peouliar. alllgating In tho same lesson or
lecture those topics of both sciences which could
be made to oohero or coalesce.' The course, with
much othor matter, included leoturos upon tho nt
moephore; the theory and nee of tho air-pump,
barometer, hydrometer, steam engine, microscope,
tclcsoope, galvanic battery, ana magnetic tele
graphy-the general properties orgasos; tho phe
nomena of heat, light, liquefaction, and ovaporiza
'tion; the manufacture or gunpowder, glass, porce
lain, iron, and stool, copper and its alloys, and
lead in its'different preparations; the theory of
combustion, of chemical affinity, £c., and a re-
Striated oourfio of organic chemistry. Professor
Boy©, in February last, resigned his position In the
High School, and retired, we believe, to priv&to
Ufo.
.Frederick A. Eoese, professor of German, was
elected in Juno. 1854. He had taught in this de
portment gratuitously from Maylith, 1852. The
utility of introducing the German language into
the course of instruction has boon much questioned
by some,' but there appears to ns to bo more imme
diate practical benefit resulting from its study
than from that of the French language. In lite
rary attd scientific treasure it is second to no living
language. It is intimately connected with the
Saxon, from which most of our expressive and
idiomntio English is derived. It is the only lan
guage in which many thousands of the inhabitants
of onr country oan bo. intelligibly addressed; and,
according to the opinion of many competent judges,
It is not inferior to the Greek.'either as a means
for disciplining and expanding the mind, or as a
language remarkable for its almost oxhaustless va
riety of expression, for its possible expansion or
compressibility, and forits great purity and power.
Professor Koeso is deeply versed in the literature
of Germany, and his method of instruction is re
gular, poll and effective; bnt his de
fiartment bad not fairly become established before
t was sacrificed to a demand for retrenchment
made by our city councils in 1855. ’ Onthefinfof
Soptembor in that year. Professor Roeso resigned
faU position, and immediately commenced the tor
matlon of private classes.
Henry Havcvstlck, professor of the Latin lan
guage, was elected in 1844, and ho still retains his
professorship. - The Greek language was tmight in
this department, commencing with the third year
of the students’ progress. In 1854, It was omitted
as a study, in accordance with a resolution passed
by the Board of Control. In 1 readjusting thd stu
dies in 1856. etymology was added to tho studies
of this professor. According to the last order of
exorcises prepared by Professor Hart, the study of
the Laiiu languago was limited to the two years at
the beginning of a pupißs course , This wo consi
der a very Injudicious arrangement. It almost sa
crifices a Tory Important literary branch,- and ap
parently without great reason.. For reasons before
mentioned, we forbear criticising the methods and
manners of those professors who remain in tho in
stitution. In our soxt number we shall close our
account of Professor Hart’s administration; and in
the one following it, we stull conclude tho history
of the High School. Aluuxus.
Sgtsrstitxox ik Louisville.' —Wo learn
from a LouUviUe, Ky. f friond, now in this city,
whose residence is noar the haunted spot, that
night after night there are.from five.hundred to
one thousand persons gathered on Broadway, noar
the oorner of Sixth street, to witnoss the va
garies nf a ghost, eaid toriso from a. large pilo of
paving stones, to assume the appearance of a white
itagy oolcmu, and to more slowly forward, eomo
hundred yards or so, and then disappear. Our in
formant says he has not boon able to find the man
who has actually seen tho phantom.
The old Marquis Capponl, who was once
styled by M. Thiers “ the firstbitlzen in Europe,”
name down to the Palazzo Vecohio to give his vote
for tho downfall of tho house of Lorraine. He is
Stone blind, and <ur bo walked along, leanlngon the
arm of his. son-in-law, many' members of the As
sembly were affected to tears. It was remembered
that, this illustrious, man, ones said to tho Grand
Hake Leopold on the day when bo revolted the
statute: “Your Highness, listen to the last coun
sellor a friend. Bo not lean upon tjuf house of
'Austria, for if yon do you will purely fall with it.”
. GVza. $lOO was raised among the officers at
headquarters, at Camp Massachusetts, in aid of the
soldier who was oripplod for life by an naudent
which occurred in getting out of tho cars. Tho
Commander-In-Chief subscribed a very libera!

The Great Western Plains are literally po
wered with buffalo. The number each-year seems
to increase rather than diminish. They go in im
mense droves, and at times seem to oast a dark
shadow over tho valley.
The wintry coolness of the White Moun
tain region has driven most of tho travellers home

that locality have reason to bo satisfied with the
season.'.
