New ORLEANS, June ID 1862.
T lie Board Of ASststr, -i44ae,,
city of Ne,p Orleans:
SRI have the honor to enclose a certified copy of
resolution adopted on the 18th inst by the Commission
of the House of Refuge of this city The ordinance
referred to in it is that of 1871 And which
fixes the salaries of the different officers employed in the
institution The Board considers that these salaries
proportion the character and Importance of the
services rendered by them The assistance the Super
intendcnt could receive higher compensation while that
of the females could be diminished The difficulty of OBJ
tanning the former who competent is greater than in
the latter 1t could therefore be removed at
least diminished by increased salaries The Board do
ask for augmented appropriation but only that the
preparation already granted should be graduated by
them to efficient officers and thus promote
the interest of the institution.
