TO tie Editor ofthe american Orqan:


SIR In the letter of "Mercury Of the 9Th in
stant to the Baltimore Sun, there is an extract
from the proceedings of the Board Of Trustees of
Public Schools, in reference to the use of the
Northern Liberties Engine House, which seems to
be founded upon misrepresentation of facts.
1t is not true that the furniture belonging to the
school was /" surreptitiously" removed from the
school room, on the second to one in the third
story, nor that that the Engine Company used the
room for ball after permission was refused The
room used in this way was the proper room of the
company, and not the school room.
In all the engine houses of the city room is oc-
cupied by portion of the company at night, for
che purpose Of guarding the property and being at
all times ready to give the alarm when fires occur
The Northern Liberties Engine Company have
no disposition to violate the laws of the Corpora
ton, nor the laws of propriety in any respect, and
an investigation of the facts will show that Mer-
cury's" informants Lave been rather swift-winged ;
they have shot ahead prematurey, to say the least
Iof it. The former Mayor had given the Company
per ssion TO select either room in the building for
their m ceilings; and the teacher had been occupy
inc the ,Noom in the third story for several days
nrevious 10 the one on which the mistake was made
whilst the. e was intention on the part of the
comnonv tn mt the teacher or the scholars to in
congonience tbs mistake shows that engine
boses are not suitable places for schools especi.
allv where ladies' are the teachers. There is no
body Of men in the city Who would be more scru-
pnlous in their department towards teachers and
trustees than the members of the Northern Lib
critics Fire Company. :,
Joint MEEr1NG.--The two Boards will on Mon
day next, 90 into joint session for the purpose Of
,electinp an Assessor for the Sixth Ward, to supply
the vacancy occasioned by the death OF Israel L.
wayson, deceased,
The Fillmore and Donelson Club meets tomor
row night at the same place.
SHELLEY AND GUY.--We call attention to the
advertisement Of this firm. Their stock OF stoves
is large, and you cannot fail to be suited.
