Mr. Blttenhouie moved an amendment that $137 he appropriated for a petition to the Harmony Sehoof, Twenty-second section. Agreed to. It was also resolved that tbe salaries of all prin cipals bo increased $lOO, where they now obtain $1,600. Mr. Wel*h moved that tbe salary of the principal of the High School be increased to $2,606, Not agreed to. Mr. Kline moved that the salaries of all female princlpalsbe increased stoo.

Mr. Belsterling moved that the salaries of assist ants in two division primary schools be made $2BO, instead of $260. Not agreed to. Mr. Stuart moved that the salary of the prinoipal of the Jackson School be increased to $1,600. Some discussion ensued as to whether that school was a first-data grammar school. The advance was granted on the ground that it was such. Mr. Fitsgerald advocated increased salaries to all the teachers who were competent, and argued that first- olaßß talent can be obtained in the public Bohoola only by giving large salaries. The report of the Committee on Estimates was ac companied by a resolution requesting Councils to authorize a loan' of $600,000 for new school*houses. The report, with the amendments, was then adopted, and the Board adjourned. Great Western, sanitary Pair.— The Great‘Western Sanitary Fair will begin at Cinoinnntl on theSlscof December- It will continue through the holidays. This branch of the Sanitary Commis sion' extends relief throughout the armies of the Union operating in the West and Southwest. It supplies without distinction all who are in those armies, no matter whence they come. Contributions from far and wide will be thankfully received; con tributions in money; contributions of every produc tion of the farmers, manufacturers, machinists, me chanics, merchants, clothiers, jewelers, milliners, gardeners; contributions of music, decorations, fruits, flowers, and contributions or loans for exhibition in the fine arts and sciences; relics, memorials, and curiosities of every sort; con tributions of lectures, concerts, and dramatic or other benefits, and to give efficiency to all, a general contribution of the influence of the Press in further ing our efforts. Every offering, in short, which can ada beauty, interest or profit to any department of the fair, or be used as material in the work of the Sanitary Commission, will be acceptable. In order moreover that nothing, however small, which even our youth can contribute, may be lost to the general offering, it is requested that directors and teachers of schools, publio and private, everywhere, invite their pupils to prepare articles of their own handi work, which will form a special department of the fair. And, above All, the aid and influence of the women of the land, as individuals in their home and Boolal oiroles, and as classes in their churches, may aid this sooiety. The whole arrangements of the fair have been as signed to oommittees on finance, buildings, machine ry, and mechanical , exhibitions, public conveyances and transportation, merchandise and donations, re freshments, art hail, gallery of paintings, music and decorations, fioricultural exhibitions, relics, curiosi ties and war memorials, lectures, concerts and bene fits, each having duties corresponding to their titles. The Next Draft.“ The next draft for troops to serve in maintaining the supremacy of the nation will probably tske place early in the coming year. Inasmuch as numerous complaints have been made in regard to alleged errors in the enrolment the FroyoaUMarshal General has ordered that the Board of Enrolment of each district shall have printed lists of the names and residences of all per sons enrolled, which are to befexposed to public view in at least five places in each sub-district. Public notice is then to be given by advertisement that any person enrolled may appear before the .board and claim to have his.name stricken off the list, if he can show to the satisfaction of the board that he is not and will not be at the time fixed for the next draft, liabldKo military duty on account of alienage, non residence, unsuitableness of age, or manifest, per manent physical disability. Persona \wffb may be aware of others liable to military duty, and not en rolled are invited to report the same to the Board of Enrolment, who shall thereupon direct the enrolling officer of the sub district in which the parties reside to ascertain the fact and enrol the persons soreport ed if they are found to be subject to enrolment. The more publicity given to such a subject as this the better would it be for all sides. It is very evi dent that some persons who escaped the last draft, because of being the only support of infirm parents, had no parentßatall to support. Some who were exempted as aliens had previously voted for several years, and have bo far escaped because of absenting themselves. The greater tbe publicity given in such an Important matter aa this, the fiooner will errors be detected. ' ' Recruiting.— The number of recruits mustered into the United States service for the week ending November 28,1663, was twelve for the old regiments, one for the new, and thirty-seven for the colored, making a total of fifty. They are credited in this State as foUows: First district, 1; Second, 1; Third, 1; Fourth, 6; Fifth, l; Sixth, t; Seventn, 2; Eighth, 1; Fourteenth, 2. To First dis trict/, of New Jersey, 26; Second, 5; Third, 4. To Eighteenth district of Ohio, l. Total, 60. It is quite clear fiouT tbe above statement, that the number of men recruited in the city is decreasing greatly. The number mustered in for the week enuing November 17th was 69, and for that ending the 21fchwas 68. The bounty of $2OO to be given by the city may have some effect towards enlisting more, but so long as the bpunty given by New Jersey continues higher than ours the cumber required to prevent a draft in the city will never be had. United States Sanitaby Commission.— "We paid a pop visit to the rooms of the United States / Sanitary Commission on Chestnut street, above Thirteenth yesterday, and speedily o&xne to the con elusion that the organization Is an institution that everybody should feel proud of. Boxeß upon boxes of such food and other articles most desirable for soldiers wounded on the held, in camp, or other hos pitals, rebel prisons, &c., were piled up like so many monuments of the patriotism of the gre.\t American people. There was a scene of uqusual activity at the rooms yesterday. Wagon* were being loaded With various articles, among which we noticed an invoioe of one thousand blankets, and any quantity of preserved meat. The United States Commission has its agents everywhere, and it may be gratifying to the public to learn that positive information has been reoeived that the things sent are more properly distributed than they were a short time since.

The Deer in Our Public Squares.— It is evident that some of the deer in our public squares have beoome rather vicious of late, and are, therefore, dangerous to persons passing through, As cold weather is now approaching their presence is of no benefit to the public, and it would be a judi cious measure if the city authorities would imme diately convert them into venison and distribute them among the army hospitals in the city for the benefit of the sick and woupded soldiers.

[Before Mr, AldermsnWfcite. J Assault with a Bottle. .■ Patrick Welsh was arraigned, yesterday, on the charge of committing an-osssuit and battery upon Miohael Callahan, the proprietor of a public house at Third street and Stamper’s alley. It Beems that the defendant went into the house on Monday after noon, and, behaving disorderly, was ejected. He re turned in a short time in company with a man named Edward Riley, and it was not long before Welsh exhibited a disposition to renew the contest with the proprietor. Riley, however, did not take an aotive part in the affair. Welsh seized a porter bottle, and struck Mr. Callahan on the head with it, thereby inflicting a pretty severe gash. The cry of murder attracted public attention, and, in a few mo ments, a police officer was in attendance. Welsh and Riley were at once taken into custody. The former was committed in default of $BOO bail to an swer. The latter was held as a witness at the re quest of the proseoutor. An Intelligent Contraband Gets Robbed* A colored man, named Emile Palmer, said to be an intelligent'contraband, was robbed on Monday night, under the following ciroumstanceß: It Beems that he had gone into a public house in the vicinity of Seventh and Lombard streets, where he pur chased Borne refreshments. Just as he replaced his money in his pocket, a colored woman, glviog the name of Julia Borden, succeeded in extracting the same in rather a dexterous manner, and ran away with it. The alarm was given, and the fugitive was arrested by Sergeant Pearson, to whom Bhe offered $5 of the stolen money. This he The de fendant was arraigned before poiioe magistrate White, who, after a patient hearing, committed her . in default of bail to answer. Trespass, with Felonious latent. The boaiding-house of Mrs. Mary Jones,{No. 303 Water street, was the scene of considerable excite ment on Wednesday night. It seems that she had ascended to a four-bedded room for the purpose of preparing the same for the accommodation of some boarders. She says that as she entered the apart ment she discoved a pair of legs, with boots on, sticking out from behind a trunk. Presently the legs moved, and she screamed murder. This alarm called all the inmates to the rescue, and the intruder tried to effect his escape. He was finally placed in the custody of a police officer.. At the hearing yes terday, at the Union-street Station, the intruder was recognized to be a former boarder at the house of Mrs. Jones, and was known as Michael O’Don nell. The prosecutrix charged him with not paying her his board, and with having clandestinely re moved his trunk. The defendant had no excuse to give relative to his peculiar position behind the trunk. He was, therefore, committed ia default of SGOO bail to answer the charge of having entered the house of Mrs. Jones with felonious intent. Larceny of Silk. .A man, giving the name of John Wilßon, was ar raigned yesterday morning, before Police Magistrate White, on the charge of the laroeny of a piece of silk, containing 17J£ yards, valued in all at $36, the property of two sisters, Catharine and Christiana Fix, drygoods and trimming store at Spruce and Fifth streets. It seems that yesterday morning, as one of the sisters was passing along the hall that divides the store from tbe dwelling, she observed tbe defendant in the aot of pulling out a bureau drawer. Upon being discovered, he endeavored to make good his escape, but was taken into custody bv officer Thomas Moore. While on the way to the station house, one of the sisters Beemed disposed not to prosecute the case any further, as it would re quire much of her time to attend court: and, besides this, she did not think that he had stolen anything. “Don’t know about that,” replied the officer; “ these fellows are pretty adroit.” “ Well, I don’t think he took anything,” replied the forgiving woman. “We’ll see about that when we get him to the station house,” replied the officer. At this place the searching process was com -menced. ~ • “Unbutton your coat,” said the officer to the prisoner. The outer garment was uulossehed of its fastenings, and down dropped a piece of silk. \ This was all the Btolen property he had. The* subject now became a felony and beyond the power of the parties to settle. The defendant was committed in default of $l,OOO bail to answer. Arrests in November, The number of arrests made by the Police ot the oity during the month of November was 2,774. The prisoners were divided among the several districts as follows; District. “ [District. let.i.i., 145 12th 2d " 414 13th 340 14th. 227 15th.. 285 Harbor 160 Chestnut Hill. 139 Park. v . 94 Reserve Corps. 4th. 6th. 6th, 7th.
