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. Those of his former pupils who have
lately entered the High School,- presented
their late teacher with a magnificent walnut
stereoscope filled with views.
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. _

On the present occasion, the anent of the landlord

within himself that there was a chance for a little
fun at the expense of the witness.
Lawyer. Bo you served a notice, did yon?
Witness. Yes, sir.
Lawyer. A written notice, I suppose ?
Witness. No. a verbal notice.
Lawyer. Thal Is nothing,
Witness. The law says that
the verbal nutlet of
the landlord or his agent is entirely sufficient.
Lawyer. Why, you are quite a lawyer.
'Witness. Not at all. lam a gentleman instead.
The lawyer wilted,and the ease was decided agalust
