them to be treasurer of all the money collected.
Let notion take the place of apathy: otherwise the
draft will take place, and at present we hare not

Sin: Permit me to give you a few details, which
esuaotbut prove interes - ing to some of your many
reiders. There is a company of Pennsylvanians in
the tit New York Volunteer Cavalry, stationed at
thin piace,which,it appears,is the oldest company of
orenteer cavalry in the - United States army. The
men seem to be " brim full" of patriotism still, not.

Mace they first mauled. early in July, 15m and
they irok forward to their expected visit with feel

fine young men, and have the reputation of being
reekleasly brave. They came out with one hundred
men& the ranks. and now they only number forty

m.2.33ions, a few deterred, some were discheugei, but
the rosiest number were killed in action. Their

They have been engaged in numberless skirmishes

in June last, this company got cot oft from the regi.

a large train of wagons (the only thing eared in that
retreat), which they conducted safely to Harrisburg,
Pa. Their movements in Pennsylvania, during the
stay of the rebels, are well known to every inhabi
tant of the Cumberland Valley. They captured
oear:y as many prison. re and wagons as all the rest of
the cavalry put together. They were among the fleet
to re-enter Martinsoure on the rebel retreat, driving
the rear-guard ot the enemy from the town, and re

used the most ungrammatical language, and was
otherwise entirely disqualified. 'Unless there be
competent persons dining the positions of public
school teachers the sooner the public school/ are dis
banded the better.
The communication was referred to the Committee
on Grammar, Seacmdary, and Primary Schools,
with instructions to report at the next stated
meeting.
Mr- Shippen offered the following
Whereat, The system of examining into the quali
fications of those who desire to teach in the public
schools of the district, as the same has been hereto
fore established and conducted by this Board, has
proven to be eminently succesefui, and productive of
great good ;
Aral whereas, The efficiency of the system has been
impaired in several Instance!, by sections electing
teachers who have not been duly examined;
And whereas, It is very important that one good
and uniform system shall prevail over the whole dis
trict s Therefore,
Resolved, That the Legislature of Pennsylvania be
requested to enact a law which shall expressly em
power this Board to establish a uniform system of
examination of qualifications of teachers, which shall
he obligatory on ail the sections.
The resolution was adopted.
Mr_ Fitzgerald offered a resolution authorizing.
the appointment of a commission to examine into the
feasibility of a general superintendent of education
in the First school district.
Several amendments were made ' and the resolu•
tion was adopted, the commission to consist of five
members of the Board, the faculty of the High -
School, and the principals of the grammar schools.
resolution 'WAS adopted expressing the thanks
of the Board to Dr. Phelps, of the Beverly Normal
School, for his invitalion to examine the object sys
tem of teaching, as practised in his institute.
A resolution was also adopted appointing a nom.
- nottee to visit the cities of New York and Boston to
examine into the merit. of their public school
systems.
Mr. Shippen offered a resolution to request the
opinion of the Oary Solicitor whether a 50h0..)1
director whose term of office has expired, can hold
a seat in this Board. (Yhe seat of Mr. Win. 0.
Kline, from the Seventeenth section,is contested on
this ground).
The resolution, after some debate was lost.
The committee appointed to revise the bylaws
and rules of the Board submitted lengthy report.
A supplemental report attached contains many
original and well digested opinions respecting the
most proper method or conducting public school edu
cation. Referring to the that the grammar,
secondary, and primary schools are not taught on a
uniform system, the report adds that the schools are
not what they are intended to be, parts of a whole,
working together for the greatest good, and most
efficient instruction and intellectual advancement
of the pupil. The committee therefore deem it ad•
visable to recommend a change In the organization
of the schools.
'Upon inquiry, they have found that in come
in
atanees pupils, who should have been promoted,
have been retained in lower schools. This may
arise from the reluctance of the teacher to part with
good and intelligent pupil., who have mastered the
proper work of the olvielon, and to take in their
place others, who would have to commence the
work of the division as a new thing, and thus give to
the teacher the more arduous teak eLteaching new
matter, 'instead Or the lighter one or peating the
old lessons to pupils who have become accustomed
to them. in other cases, it may spring from the de•
sire of primary school teachers to raise their schools
to the, ank of Secondary schools, by retaining their
pupils until they are prepared for the Grammer
Schools.
From these, and perhaps other causes, it frequent
ly occursahat when a child is promoted, dissatisfac
tion is felt by the parent, who finds that his child
does net appear to have progressed for a time after
promotion.
On the other hand, it Is sometimes the case, that
promotions are mace before the pupils have had
rime to learn the proper tasks of the division or
the school.
. . .
All will admit that it is but seldom the case that
the directors can give the time necessary.to personal
examinations of the proficiency of the_puplis, and
of the length of time, whether long or Short, that a
pupil has spent in a division. In other instances,
the directors may know the circumstances, but may
agree with the teachers as to the expediency of these
measures.
At present, in many of the sections, it is consider.
ed that a teacher has no business in.any school but
his or her own ; and the secondary schools receive
from the primary schools such pupil as the primary
schools may choose to send them, whether good or
bad in scholarship or deportment; and the primary
schools may choose to send forward troublesome
pupils, even while they retain those advanced be
yond them in scholarship, but conducting themselves
better, and therefore of less trouble to the teacher.
The some is the cue es to the Beconasty sod gram
mar schools.
Teachers often differ as to the methods of perform
ing orrtain exercises, when each of the several
methods will produce the same result. A pupil will
learn one method, and, on being promoted to an
other school, or even to another division of the
same school, will be required to use another; often
more time will be requited to abandon the method
first learned than was needed to learn it. The case
is still stronger when i< pupil is erroneously taught
at first, and becomes so habituated to the error that
it is almost an impossibility to unlearn it, and leant
the true or the right method. A principal; espe
airily in a grammar school, usually has to spend
mush time in correc , i.g tie effects of erroneous
teaching, some of which may have been done in his
or her own school' but the whole time of the principal
being employed in teaching, there is no opportunity
to know of the erroneous teaching, until promoted
pupils bring the errors into the principal's division. -
The principal has not time to examine the assis
tant; and, in case of ignorance or difference of
method on the part of an assistant, to instruct her,
or to advise better methods ; and the principal can
not learn from the assistant in case she should be
better informed.
The committee propose to remedy these faults in
our school system by very simple means. If an as
sistant be given to each of the firstt clan grammar
schools, for the first division, the principal would
have time to superintend, not only the lower divi
sions of the grammar school, but also the secondary
and primary schools of the section.
The report was accepted.
After the transaction of other business, of minor
importance, the Board adjourned.

action to recover damages for alleged malicious ar

evening in August last, in company with a sister and
a friend, went into the jewelry store of defendant,
in Second street above Spruce, to look at some
breastpins. A card, containing several pins, was
shown them, but not itkingtany of them, the plain
itit and her companions were about leaving, when
Brannon said that one of the breastpin. was missing,
and accused them of having stolen it. They indig
nantly denied the charge. He insisted that they had
stolen the pin, and said that unless they gave it up
he would tend fur an officer and have them arrested
and searched. At this juncture a brother of plaintiff,
who was on the pavement outside, was called in,
and the state of affairs made known to him. He im
mediately went for his father, and Brannon went
for a policeman, Upon the return of defendant with
the policeman he was confronted by Mr. Back,
plaintiff's father, with whom defendant proposed to
settle the matter. This Mr. Beck refused to do, and
insisted that the defendant should proceed, and , he
could, sustain the charge he had preferred against his
daughters. The defendant then very reluctantly ac
companied the 'Antes and the officer before Alder
man Moore, before whom the defendant declined to
be sworn or to make any charge, saying that he had
detained the plaintiff and her companions on sus
picion.
The defence was, that the defendant having missed
the pin from the case, and the parties being the only
persons in the store at the time. he had reasonable
cause of suspicion against them; and that their de
tention under the circumstances, and until the mat.
terfeould be explained, could not, or ought not, to be
considered as malicious; and was not therefore a case
in which damages should be recovered.

Yesterday afternoon a mulatto man was arraigned

an assault and battery upon his step-daughter. It
seems from her evidence that on Saturday last the
defendant was beating him wife at their place of resi
dence in Jones alley. The stepdaughter got in be
tween the parties, and received one or two thumps,
from the effects 01 which she fell. The defendant
was required to enter bail in the semi of it 300 to be
of future good behavior. The police officer who
made the arrest offered to go ball. •
"I would rather not take you," replied the zaa•
gistrate.
"I have known defendant some time, and always
found him to be a peaceable citizen," replied the
pollee officer.
" Well, sir, I would rather have other bail," re
plied the alderman, as he put hie signature to the
commitment.
' , What's de cost, Aldermanl" enquired the

a piece of silk goods valued at $2l, the property
