The second and thrd AO.s are divided NJ
into sixteen rooms Of convenient sze for Offices,
which are airy and pleasant. Fourteen of these are
intended for the City Inspectors Department. De-
ci5ed objections are made however by almost every
BODY connected with that Department to moving into
the building on the ground that to have four freen-
eines D. low them would be nuisance. They say,
also that ,be fact that the reeD gnes steamers,
and NAV blow up, considered in connection with the
fact that 6rem.n do once in while get rather high, is
to them a slightly unpleasant reflection.
The COOPER Ixsr1rUrE.-It il the intention of the
phanthropc founder of this noble Institute that the
greater portion Of its annual expenditures shall be de-
fayed from the rents of the stores and offices in the
lower stories Of the building. The receip,s for the
frst year, however have fallen short Of the sum
needed the leases not having all been taken till within
a few months. While the Trustees were at a loss to
know what means should be adopted 10 meet this
deficiency, Mr. Cooper, with biz Proverbial munif-
eeace, voluntarily put at their disposal the generous
sum of 10000 He has thus placed the city, and all
lovers Of human progress and all asprant in the paths
Of science and art under another debt Of gratitude to
one whom they owed so much before.
Since the Winter of the school commences,
on Nov l. some two thousand pupils have awaited
