gtrt SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1865 THE CITY• Appßißmge ARE DDCRITIML.—A Cu rious vindication of the truth and Justice of the adage, "Do not Judge by appearances," came across our notice on yesterday afternoon. In one of our markets sits an old lady, one of that too abused class yclept hucksters, who, by a close attention to business for a period of over thirty years, has accumulated a hand some competence. She still, however, follows the old business, and dresses as one of that mass. For some time past she has been in the habit of supplying a restaurant on Chest, nut street with vegetables and other articles, to the daily extent of forty or fifty dollars. At stated times she presents herself at the cashier's desk for a settlement of her account. Such an messier' Wok place 'yesterday, and she was waiting at the desk while he was cal culating the amount due her. We have al ready said that she was very plainly dressed. A young man, who had been taking some refreshment in the eating-saloon, stepped forward for the purpose of paying his check. Me threw down a note and received his change. As he was about to gather it up he noticed the old lady, and naturally sup posing that she was a mendicant; he laid be fore - her a liberal donation, and then passed on. She saw the money, but did not appre ciate the motive that caused its preaentation, and no doubt thought that the money was i n payment for some cigars. The cashier, however, noticed the action, and after the de parture of the young man informed the old lady that the money had been placed there for her, under the impression that she was a mendicant. - The idea afforded her considerable amuse ment. Whether-she took_ the money or not we are not informed. The incident, however, - will serve to illustrate a saying of David Crockett, of glorious memory : Be sure you are right ; then, go ahead." Appearances are often deceitful. The richman may sometimes appear oh the street in shabby clothing, and the penniless fob often struts about in clothes which are not paid for. Pure gold will not tarnish by association with base metals, but the leaden shellis easily detected beneath the thin film of gilding. CONTROLLERS OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS.— A special meeting of the Board of School Con- trollers was held yesterday, in order to re ceive and act upon the report of the committee appointed to confer with the City Treasurer with regard to the payment of the warrants of the school teacher.--:. President Shippen occupied the chair. The committee reportedthat they had called upon the City Treasurer, who had requested a - few days delay, ill order to see what arrange ments lie could make in artier to comply with the wish of the board. They did not have an opportunity to see the Treasurer again, but they learned informally that he would pay the warrants in four separate payments, com mencing on the 7th of October, and continuing weekly. To facilitate matters, the committee recom mend the issue of warrants as follows : First Week.—Tenth, Eleventh, Twelfth, Thirteenth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth, and Six teenth seliool sections, and the Girls' liigh School. Second Week.—Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, Seventeenth, Eighteenth, Nineteenth, and Twentieth sections. Third Week.-41iird, Fourth, Fifth Sixth, Twenty-first, Twenty-second, andtwenty third sections. Fourth Week.—First, Second, Twenty-fourth, Twenty-fifth, and Twenty-sixth sections, and the BeyS' High School, On motion, the arrangements of the commit tee were adopted by the board. A resolution tendering the thanks of the Board to the City Treasurer for the arrange ments he had made for the payment of the warrants was agreed to by a vote of fourteen yeas to six - nays, and the board adjourned. THE JEWISH FOSTER Ho AND THE JEWISH HOSPITAL.—In our notice of the Jews of Philadelphia, their institutions, &c., made in our issue of the 20th instant, we find we have omitted mention of two very deserving charities existing among the sect. We refer to "The Jewish Foster Home" and the "Jewish Hospital ASSOClation," the former of which has now been in existence foi 4 ever ten years, and has for its object the care and mainte nance of orphans of Jewish parentage. The Home was originally located on Seventh street, then on North Eleventh street, and Axially at ita present location, on Fifteenth street, below Jefferson. The inmates now number thirty-two children, many of the for mer inmates having been apprenticed to ser vice, and several wh C. have been brought up in i the nstitution are now themselves grateful contributors thereto. . . . The Home owes its existence to the energy of a few ,of the ladies of the persuasion, among whom we would mention Mrs. Henry Cohen, the Miss Rebecca and Louisa Gratz, Mrs. J. L. Florence, Allen, Hart, and others. The building now occupied by them L was pur chased some years since, and is presided over by the matron, Miss M. Hart, and a committee of lady managers appointed for that purpose. The present officers are Mrs. Anna Allen, first directress ; Miss R. Gratz, second direct ress; Mrs. A. Finzl, treasurer ; MISS B, Re mcis/er, secretary, and a board of thirty lady managers. The institution is mainly sup- Jorted by the voluntary contributions of the ewish community. "The Jewish Hospital Association" have just been organized, and have purchased a large lot and commodious building at Haver ford road and Westmimster avenue, Twenty fourth ward. This is to be a hospital not only for those of the Jewish faith, but for any of other denominations who may have need 40 its benefits. ltvrill probably be in active work ing order about December Ist, next. The Offi cers of the association are : .Alfred T. Jones, uresident ; J. Binswang,er, vice president; S. Weil, treasurer; M. .wiltzberger, secretary, and a board of rectora composed of the Rev. Isaac Lesser and others. RESIGNATION OF A PRINCIPAL. —Mr. James H. Eldridge, who has been principal of the Fourteenth ward. Grammar School for about seven years, formally resigned that posi tion 'yesterday, and Mr. George Stuart, who bad been appointed to succeed him, entered upon his duties. The occasion was affecting and interesting. The exercises consisted of singing by some of the young lady pupils, and addresses by liessrs. l Maguire and Fletcher; the reading of resolutions of the school and of the Board of Directors, expressive of their regret at parthig, and testifying to the taut ' judgment and uniform kindness of Mr. El dridge. Mr. Herkness, [a pupil [of the gram mar school, on behalf of himself and com panions, presented Mr. Eldridge with a beau lid set of cut glass numbering nineteen pieces, including goblets wine-glasses and fruit. stand.

The Secondary School presented a basket of choice natural fruit and flowers. A beautifully engrossed and framed copy of the resolutions above referred to were also presented to Mr. Ekb:idge. Kr, Stuart, the new principal, was intro duced, and nade a neat address, in which he expressed a hope, by the aid of his assistant teachers and all of his pupils, to merit their confidence and love. - - - Mr. Shill Pen, president Of Me t lloard of Control, made a few remarks, in which he highly complimented the retiring principal for the faithful manner in which he had always discharged his duties. The occasion was an interesting and affect ing one. Many of the scholars were moved to tears at parting with their teacher. _ CRICKET.—An exciting and interesting ganle Of Cricket was played yesterday be tween the Manhattan, of New York, and the Olympian, of this city, on the grounds of the Philadelphia Cricket Club, at Camden.
