Opening of the Public Schools-Obser

Yesterday, the day which the public schools were
announced to resume their sessions looked forward
to with much anxiety by those who have taken an in
tcres in the Bible reading question. AS general thing
the schools opened with appropriate exercises In
the town wards the exercises began usual with the
reading Of the Bbe but in the lower wards recaci
trant disposition exhibited and many Of the schools
therein its reading, Notwithstanding the severe resolution
passed by the Board, entirely dispensed with. The
heads Of the different departments in the Fourth Four
teenth and Sixth ward schools received instructions from
the trustees to open their schools the which
they observed before vacation consequence there
was reading Of the Bible with but two excep-
tons) the schools of those wards In school No 3D. Sixth
ward the exercises began with chant but according to
the instructions Of the trustees the customary chapter
from the Scriptures omitted About 1870 were present
in the primary, larger attendance than expected
the first day.
In school No 80 Baxter street. the Bible heretofore was
not read but the pupils rected the Lords Prayer It is to
be presumed that the will be followed now
until the matter is decided by the proper tribunal Ward
school No Fourth ward, had very fair attendance Of
scholars, some 450 in all departments.
The teachers in these wards are in a dilemma If they

themselves liable 10 dsmissa! by the local boards and If
they do not their pay is stopped by the Board of Euca
