Twenty-second section informed the Board of a
third division in Franklin school, and the appoint
merit of Mies Elizabeth Leekens as teacher.
Twentpfourth section, Miss Connell was elected
third assistant in Girls' Newton Secondary, and
Mies Rebecca Jones as first assistant in Dunlap
Primary.
The Committee on Accounts reported-bills to the
amount of $12,150.26, which were ordered to be paid.
The 'Committee on Supplies,
.to whom was re
ferred a resolution asking for information in re
lation to the Pennsylvania Spelling Book No. 2,
reported that about 160 dozen of the new edition of
1863 bad been furnished to the public schools. The
alterations in the book were suggested by Mr.
Joseph Cooper, late a member of tne Board. The
alterations are acknowledged to be correct; but to
prevent trouble in the future a resolution was
offered that no author or publisher shall be allowed
to make alterations in any of the books in use in
our schools without the special consent of the
Board. In relation to the delivery of coal, the com
mittee reported that the complaints in reference to
the. Eighth section were true. At one of the schools
the coal was not weighrd as required bylaw; in
that instance the scale waa broken.. The complaint
in reference to dirty coal was also just. Messrs.
Wright & -Eyre are exonerated' from blame in the
matter.
The report was recommitted to the committee,
Mr. Shippen having stated that the coal was not
weighed, to his own personal knowledge, notwith
standing he had seen in the City Controller's office
an affidavit by the weigher that the coal had really
been weighed. It was about time, said Mr. Ship
pen, that these manifest frauds upon the city were
stopped.
Mr. Fagan also stated that the coal delivered to
the Ringgold School was not weighed, nor, indeed,
was the full amount of coal delivered.
Mr. Shippen then offered a resolution that the
City Controller be requested not to countersign the
warrant of Mr. L. Tobin. as that gentleman had not
weighed the coal, as he should have done.
Mr. Fitzgerald urged a postponement of the sub
jeet, to give the committee time to investigate.
Mr. Shippers desired that this should be a warning
for the future, and let this warrant be cancelled, for
he had reason to believe the duty for which the war
rant was a recompense wag not discharged.
Dr. Ritchie said that at the Southeast Grammar
School there were to have been 60 tons of coal de
livered, and only 10 or 12 tons of it were weighed.
The resolution was meanie:musty adopted.
The Committee on the Boys' High School offered
a resolution that GeJuncils be requested to appro
priate $lOO for the purpose of planting trees around
the Boys' High School. Agreed to.
The Committee on Grammar, Secondary, and Pri
mary Schools, reported in reference to the establish
ment of a grammar school in the Second section.
it was resolved that the scholars with the teachers
of the Wecoacoe Grammar School be removed on
the let of January, to the Washington School-house
as a nucleus for two four-division grammar schools,
and that it shall be under the care of the First and
Second sections united. The report was accepted.
Dr. Nebinger offered a resolution that a six divi
sion grammar school, three of each sex, be opened
in the Washington Schoolhouse on the tat of Sanu-'
ary, or as soon thereafter as convenient, independent
of any other section, in conformity with the.appli
cation of the Second section. Referred to the Com
mittee on Grammar, Secondary, and Primary
Schools.
The Committee on Property submitted a resat'.
ton requesting the President of the Board to pur
chase the schoolhouse on Howard street, between
Diamond and Susquehanna avenue, at a cost not
exceediceeslB,6o9, and that a Warrant be drawn in
favor of MTabaelßriee. Agreed to. Also, a reeolu
tion that the Barclay-street school for colored pupils
be put in order for school purposes.
Mr. Rittenhouse offered a resolution requesting
Councils to appropriate $826 to Alexander Oonvery,
as a partial remuneration for the loss he had sus
tained in faithfully delivering coal to the public
schools, as required by contract.
The resolution occasioned some debate, Mr. Ship
pen arguing against it, on the ground that it would
be bad precedent to all future contractors, who
might come forward to ask en advance because of
their own delinquency. e
Mr. Fitzgerald stated that since he has been a
member of the Board there had been continual dis
cussions about coal. He could say, in defence of
Mr. Convery i that among all others be had ever fur
nished coal n strict accordance with his contract.
Recently the price of coal had gone suddenly up,
• which he could not possibly have foreseen. His loss
in consequence was very heavy, and the Board
abould remunerate him.
Dr. Ritchie said that moron after Mr. Convery had
received his contract there was a flood in the Lehigh
region, which caused a great advance in coal. Other
causes had recently operated for a further rise, and
Mr. Convery should not suffer the entire lows, as the
ceases were beyond his or others' foresight. The .
resolution was adopted..
Mr. Adams offered a resolution that there be held
only one session in the girls' schools of the city.
Mr. Freeborn offered an amendment, that the pri
vilege of one session be extended to bops' schools,
too. Not agreed to.
Another amendment was offered, that the sec
tional boards- be at liberty to reject or agree to the
resolution, as the requirements of their sections de-
Mended. Not agreed to.
The origin al motion was then lost—yeas 6, nayslB.
Some other minor busbnes was transacted, and
- the Board adjourned.

The committee in charge of the Reghtry Depart
ment, whole ohlef duty itie to aid in obtaining eitu
ationi for meritorious salesmen or clerks, who, from
sickness or any other unavoidable cause, have been
thrown out of employment, have (ailed in a great
measure to meet the reasonable expectations of its
friends, although they .have been molt diligent in
their exertions to further its success. This arose
mainly on account of the neglect of employers to co
operate with the action of the committee. Many
valuable situations have been procured through the
labors and influence of the committee, ' which
otherwise would not have, been obtained; but
when . the infinite importance of this feature
of the institution is considered, the beard are
mortified that much more has not been achieved.
Those who are acquainted with its operations need
no words or encouragement to commend it to more
general favor ; but the humane project of placing
men in .honorable positions of steady employment,
by which he may be enabled to earn the means of
his subsistence, to even accepting temporary relief
cannot be generally understood, or this indifference
would certainly not continue to exist.
The Board of Management, to whose administra-
tion the interests of the society, for the past twelve
months, have been entrusted, can have no higher
hope, in retiring from office, than that the prosperity
of the association may continue to the end, and that
the noble sentiment of universal charity which pre.
sides over the treasury, and gives a character to its
benefits, may also find a home in the heart of every
ore 'whose name is upon its roll.
The following preamble and resolutions were
adopted :
Whereas, The Government of the United States is
now engaged in efforts to suppress a rebellion that
threatens the integrity of the Union • and the de
struction of our national life and honor • a rebellion
causeless as it is wicked, originating ath bad men
from bad motives, involving in its results the rights,
interests, and happiness of ourselves and children;
and which, if successful, would overthrow the
principle of pelt-preservation, degrade American
manhood and American nationality, despoil free
dom of ifs sanctity, and human rights of their pro.
tection, and establish a tyranny more odious than
the monarchies of the Old World; and crush the
hopes of millions in our own and other lands'; and
whereas, it is eminently proper that this association,
representing, as it does, the feelings, sympathies,
and loyalty of the mercantile community of this city,
should, in this hour of our nation's peril, declare
their devotion to the Government that protects
them and to the Union which gives to our country
its 'Ate ngth and glory-: therefore,
Resolved, That, although as merchants we have
lost much by this unholy rebellion, in the repudia
tion of solemn contracts by traitors, who now seek
to destroy the country we love, yet we are willing
to sacrifice more to preserve the Government, save
the Union, and maintain in their integrity our free
institutions. •
. . .
Resolved, That in our present struggle we repudi
ate a cold and heartless neutrality, and pledge to our
country and Government a loyalty without a condi
tion, and a support full and free as patriotism in its
warmest impulse, can demand. -
Resolved, That we are in favor of a vigorous pro
secution of the war—of the prompt and speedy
crushing of the rebellion—and that we will sustain
the Government by every means in our power in its
efforts to destroy treason, rebuke disloyalty, and to
establish upon a permanent basis of freedom and
equal rights the union of the States and the Consti
tution of our country.
Resolved, That whilst we would have the return of
peace as Heaven's best boon to our bleeding coun
try,. we desire no peace that would compromise our
nation's unity and honor. Unconditional submission
by traitors in arms to lawful authority, or the utter
overthrow of the rebellion by the strong arm of war
are the only conditions of an honorable and lasting
peace.
The board of managers was then elected for the
ensuing year, after which the meeting adjourned.
The anniversary will take place on nt xt Friday
evening, at Musical Fund Hall, upon which occasion
Daniel Dougherty, Esq., will deliver an oration.
AN APPEAL OF THE "SPECIAL RELIEF"
COMMITTEE for means to enable them to continue
their work of providing for the destitute families of
our soldiers. .
Few 0.1 our citizens know anything of the want
and suffering which exist in our midst in the fami
lies of those who have leftrhome (and in some cases
lucrative employment) to fight in our defence. To
supply this want, and to alleviate this suffering, has
been one of the cares of the "Special Relief" Com
mittee of the Women's Pennsylvania Branch United
States Sanitary Commission.
In April last a special fund was raised for this put ,
pone—a fund which is now exnausted.
The wants of men in the field and in, our hospitals,
absorb the funds of the Sanitary Commission, and
the committee feel that an effort must be made by
them to collect means to carry on their work, or that
their work must be abandoned.- -
The " Executive " Committee of the Women's
Penneylvania Branch U. S. Sanitary Commission.
have hitherto provided material, which has been cut
into garments for the soldiers; and given out by the
"Special Relief" Committee to be made by the
wives and widows of soldiers, and the wives of dis
charged and disabled men.
All persons applying for such work, must bring
proof of their respectability, and it is the duty of
the committee to visit all persons whom they aid.
An English woman arrived here from her own
country, expecting her husband to greet her; she
found,instead, that he had enlisted in our
army, and she was friendless and alone in a strange
land. The committee gave her work; and she is now
in comparative comfort. -
A man who recently came to his homi on a fur
lough, found his family in want of fuel and bread; his
own pay being six months in arrears, he applied to
the committee for work for his wife, and closed
his appeal thus: "Ladies, I could not have fought
as I dui if I had known my wife and little ones
were suffering."
The case of a man discharged with diseased lungs
was recently brought to the notice of the commit
tee.
He had worked in the arsenal until his strength
gave way entirely. When the committee found
him he was without the necessaries of life, his wife
oaring for him as well as she could with the small
means furnished her by a few fellow-laborers in the
arsenal. He died a few days ago. His last hours
were cheered and soothed by the comforts furnished
through the committee. •
The committee now 'ask: "Shall this relief
cease I Shall those who have sacrificed themselves
for us meet with no return I"
Shall we not rather nerve the arms of our men in
the" field by proving to them that their families are
cared for?
Will not a fallen soldier's last thought of earth be
happier if he feels that those he leaves behind have
friends who will not suffer them to want?.
Thousands have been spent in making men ready
for the field; the committee ask means to make
their families ready for the coming winter.
Mr. Bergfeld has generously offered the proceeds
of a benefit, to be given by the German Opera Com
pany, on Saturday evening next, Nov; 14th.
the friends of soldiers aid the committee by
purchasing tickets?
Contributions in money will be thankfully re
ceived by the committee at their office, 1338 Chest
nut street, (up stairs,) on any day (except Sun.
days) between the hours of 3 and 5 P. M., when any
one can see how great the need is, and how little it
takes to relieve it.

FAMILY STEAM CA.RRIAGIB:—TiIerO WaS a
private exhibition of the power ()Übe family atelier
carriage, "linty of Boston," at the Point Breeze
Park, yesterday afternoon The bolleri which is
not over eeventeentnaherlin diameter, is perpendicu
lar ; the machinery is diminutive, and very easily
managed. The seat will hold . two persons. The
arrangement is such that the vehicle can make very
short turns, and may be propelled at the rate of one
mile in 2.90. Five or six tripe were made around
the course, during which time there were a number
of horses, in single and double harness, travelling
with the machine. The animals were not fright
med.' This afternoon and to-morrow afternoon
the.'carriage will run in competition with the
celebrated mare,. " May Queen," and thus the
lovers of sport will have an opportunity. to witness
an interesting exhibition. We may say that the
carriage steamed its own way from Front and Dock
streets to the park yesterday, without frightening
horses. The carriage, with all the machinery, water
in the boiler, weighs only 700 pounds, and coat about
as much as a pair of good family horses. Me run
ning travelling expenses is about one cent per mile.
Of course, years may elapse before such an "institu
tion" conies into general use. The " old fogy" no
tions as to the use of steam in our streets will have
to be set aside first. It is probable the proprietor
or inventor will make a general street display some
time within a week.

Parker left the stool, and, pulling out a pistol, tired
it at Mr. A. The ball struck his left breast, but a
pocketbook prevented it from entering his body.
At the same moment Mr. P., with an uplifted knife,
the blade being six or seven inches long, rushed upon
Mr. Albertson And cut a terrible gash across his
face, extending from his ear to his chin. These were
about the facts as developed; the cause being kept
private. The defendant was held to bail in the sum
of $3,000 to answer at court.
We may state that erysipelas has supervened, and
thus the life of Mr. Albertson has been placed in
jeopardy,
A man, who gave the name of Wm. Webb, and
said to be the proprietor of a tavern at No. 60 Al
mond street, was arraigned before Alderman White,
yesterday afternoon, on the charge of robbing a
sailor, named James Fitzgibbons, of three ten-dollar
treasury notes. From the evidence given, It appears
that, on Saturday night, Fitzgibbons was paid all
the money that was coming to him, which amounted
to some thirty odd dollars. Ile then proceeded to a
tavern at Front and Pine streets to obtain lodgings,
but the lady of the house, Mrs. Brown,- was unable
to grant his desire. At this time William Webb,
with his wife came into the tavern, and learning
Fitzgibbons' desire, stated that they could furnish
him with accommodations at their own house. Ms.
Brown then gave Fitzgibboni , money to Webb,
when the three started home together, but they had
not gone far when Webb and his wife dropped the
sailor, who was intoxicated, and went home by
themselves. Fitzgibbons found himself lying in
the street about four o'clock on Sunday morning.
Webb denies receiving any money from Mrs. Brown,
although three witnesses testified that they saw, her
give it to him. The alderman bound him over in
$1.600 bail to answer the charge at the next term of
court.
A young man, who gave his name as William
Feeney, was arraigned yesterday morning, on the
charge of assault and battery, with intent to kill
George McDevitt. From the evidence adduced at
the hearing, it seems that the parties are intimate
with each other. On Monday evening they were at
houee No. 718 Baker street, Fourth ward, where
they became engaged in a wrangle. It is alleged
that the defendant drew a. pock at. knife, and with it
inflicted a wound in the left side of MoDevitt—a
email one, but dangerous. and it is not unlikely to
terminate mortally. McDevitt was removed to his
home on•Fitzwater street, above Seventh. The de.
fendant was committed to await the result of Mc-
Devitt'a injuries.
A Storekeeper _Fleeces a Countryman.
A tall specimen of an honest-looking man, front
Ohio, sauntered, along Market street yesterday in
search of some place where he might buy a coat at a
cheap rate, not knowing perhaps the difference be.
tween a sheeny storekeeper and any of the many
honest people who do business on that wide
thoroughfare. As he stopped to look at a coat,
he was urgently invited in to examine some of the
stock inside. A coat was finally found to fit him.
The price was twelve dollars. The sheeny, after
much talk, agreed to take ten dollars, but, rather
than not accommodate his• customer, said he might
have it for nine dollars.
The countryman rather liked the coat, it looked so
much like the one he got "to hum," and said he
would give eight dollars, and no more. The wily
sheeny demurred, shrugged his shoulders, talked
about the advance in the price of goods, &c. The
countryman was about to go away, when the store.
keeper said, " Vell,you takes him for eight, I nether
sell so sheep afore.' ,
The countryman counted out eight dollars—a five
dollar Treasury note, a two-dollar and a one.dollar
bank note.
"Oh, I mush 'aye all creep packs," said the store
keeper.
" I hain't got none so small," replied the country
man.
" Yell, then, I no shells the goat • you can take
your monish pack," repiied the El torekeeper, at the
same time handing the countryman the notes rolled
up. To perform the trick successfully, something
like skill is necessary just at this moment of the
transaction. .
The storekeeper must have the roll of notes
quickly; their take the coat and show it on the
counter, and pretend to be angry. This was very
well done, and the countryman, taking the roll of
notes, put it into his pocketbook without examina
tion. He left the store and proceeded to his hotel.
In a short time, having croCaisiOn to pay for Some
thing, he took the roll from his pocket. book, and
found it minus the five.dollar treasury note. The
one and two• dollar notes were there. The attention
of a police officer was called, and -the storekeeper
was taken before Alderman Batter. In the police
vocabulary, this branch of thieVing is called
"en
fan,?' and has often been practsed. People from a
distance are generally operated upon, and almost in
every case, the victims being absent on the day of
trial, the sharpers go free in consequence of said
absence. In this case, however, the alserman bound
the defendant over in the sum of $l,OOO to answer
at the present term of court.

The undersigned, as General Subscription Agent, is
authorized by the Secretary of the Treasury to continue
the sale of this popular Loan, and TEN DAYS public
notice will be given of discontinuance.
ABOUT TWO HUNDRED MILLIONS remain unsold.
and this amount is scarcely sufficient to furnish a basis
for the circulation of the National Banking Association"
now being formed 111 - 43V817 part of the Country. But a
short time must elapse before this loan is wholly ab
sorbed, the demand from EnroPe, Germany especially.
being Quite active.
As it. is well known that the SecretarY of the Trea
sury has ample and unfailing resources in the duties on
imports, internal revenues, and in the issue of interest
bearing Legal Tender Treasury Notes, it Is nearly cer
tain that it will not be necessary for him for a long time
to come to issue further permanent Loans. the interest
and principal of which are payable In Gold.
These considerations must lead to the prompt conclu
sion that the time is not far distant when these " Five-
Twenties" will sell at a handsome premium, as was the
result with the " Seven -thirty" Loan, when it was all
sold, and Could no longer be subscribed for at par.
This is vt
ESIX PER CENT. LOAN,
the Interest and• Principal being payable in coin. thus
Yielding about many per °ant. per annum at the present
premium on gold.
It is called "Flye-Twenty." from the fact that whilst
the Bonds may run for twenty years, yet the Govern
ment has the right to pay them off in gold at par, at an,
time After years.
The interest is paid half yearly on the first days of No
vember and May.
Subscribers can have Coupon Bonds which are paya
ble to bearer and Leaned fol. $450, $lOO. WOO. and $l,OOO,
or Registered Bonds of similar denominations, - and in
addition $6,003 and $10,030.
These "Five-Twenties" cannot betaxed by States,
cities, towns, or counties, and the Government tax on
them Is only one and a half per cent, on the amount of
income, when the income exceeds six hundred dol
lars per annum. Income from, all other investments,
such as mortgages, railroad stooks, bonds, ao-, 111[111
pay from three to Ave per cent tax on the income.
Bankkand Bankers throughout the country will c 011.,.
tinue to dispose of the Bonds, and all orders by mail or
otherwise properly attended to:
The Treasury Department having perfected arrange
ments for the prompt delivery of Bonds, Subscribers
will be enabled to receive them at the time of subscri
bing, or at farthest in FOUR days. This arrangement
will be gratifying to parties who want the Bonds on pay
ment of the money. and will greatly increase the sales.

TAPHYSICAL DISCOVERY.
"I, Dr. John J. Moore. of Berkley, N. T., assert, for
the benefit of all who suffer, that I have been afflicted
with diseased'eyes for twenty-three years; have been in
the Eye Infirmary in Providence, where it was thought
an operation was necessary, but to this I would not con
sent. I have been pronounced incurable by live of the
best physicians in the country. two of whom assured
me MY eyes would run out in atm weeks. and procured
a letter for-my admittance into the Infirmary in Phila
delphia.
" While preparing to go, a friend advised me to try
Mrs. - M. G. Brown. On the 9th of September. 1863, I
went to see her, led by my wile as I was totally blind.
and had been so for a year. Mrs. Brown told me my case
was bad, atmost hopeless, throulgh the quantity of blue
stone and vitriol administered, but added, if anything
could reach my case, the Metaphysical Discovery would.
She made the fist application; -I brought the medicine
home; I have need it three weeks, and the result is that
this twenty. nin La day of eeptember, I have come to Phi
ladelphia alone, now sit in Mrs. Browns office; can
read without glasses the signs on the opposite side of the
street; write a letter at the desk, and see every object
distinctly around me.
" I am now at my practice again, supplying the wants
of my family, who meet have been beggared had I not
been cured. Under these circumstances I cordially re
commend Mrs. M. G. Brown's mode of treatment to all
who are suffering. The Metaphysical Discovery cures
Deafness. Noises in the Head, Running o f the Ears, Ca
tarrh, &c., &c. The package consists of three distinct
