BOARD OF EDUCATION.

At the meeting Of this Board last evening, ANDREW
ii. GREEN, President pro tenn, in the Chair, a
pcston was read from the school officers of the Fourth
Ward requesting that they be authorized to advertise
for proposals TO furnish the schOohOuse in that Ward
Referred to Finance Committee. A communication
was received from the Trustees of the Fourth Ward
presenting the same statements as were made by Mr.
Shine at the last meeting They say that the objections
of the Finance Committee have been removed and they
ask that the teachers appointed by the school officers
oeve their pay.
Mr.. SHINE said that the teachers had been working
faithfully during the hot Summer months, and he
hoped that they would not be deprived of their pay
Mr.. Ryan, the Inspector, was now willing TO sign the
pay.rols, and all legal objections had been removed.
II could not be shown that in any the vote of the
Inspector had made any difference in the removals or
appointments. The technical objection that the In
specor present when this action taken should
not be considered an objection. Whatever had been
done While he was present had been confirmed by the
vote of eight Trustees 1t was not asked that those
teachers who were relatives of school officers should
receive pay and their names wodld be stricken from
the payrolls. II had been stated that the teachers
appointed were inefficient but he had records to show
that the attendance OF scholars had increased since their
insialment. He hoped the resolution appended to the
communication authorizing the President TO sign these
psy-rolls would he adopted.
Mr. TUCKER thought that the communication should
be referred 10 some Committee for investigation before
any action was taken upon II BY the Board.
Mr. FAIR was not willing that the communication
should be disposed Of in the hasy manner desired by
Mr.. Shine. He moved that the communication be re-
ferred 10 the Finance Committee.
Mr.. WATERBURY said the course pursued by the
school officers of the Fourth Ward appeared to him
very peculiar. There was nothing TO prevent any
teacher appointed before the 9TH Of May getting his
money The responsibility Of preventing the teachers
from receiving their pay rested entirely with the
school officers. Tie Boa had declared their remov-
ais and appointments illegal, with but three dissenting
voices and he did not believe that any one would re-
cede from this position The Fourth Ward officers had
uone eerous ipJIy W 'hu ou's VI Paoho euucatioh

person not preiudced would do the sarne. The ofcer
could send in the rolls of the teachers legally az
pointed and they woud be paid. There was no
reason why this communication should not go before
the Finance Committee. MI
TIE motion referring TO the Finance COMMITTEES was
carried. 49,.
A communication was received from six members OF
the Free Academy, who sent their names, charging
that the Faculty had been partial and unjust III their

Academy.

then presented. motion, by MIR. BYRsE, 70 lay the
report the table, wa, lost. :.
Mr. WATERBURY moved that the recommendation in
reference 10 bylaws be referred to the Committee on
Bylaws.
A long discussion here eusued.
Mr. TUCKER said he did not wish to reflect upon the
character of the School Officers Of the Fourth Ward as
gentlemen but in their official capacity they had done
great wrong. The Commissioner from that Ward,
before this investigation commenced, had made nsnu-
atoms preudical to the teachers. The teachers were
discharged from sectarian motives. treat g0oo h'o
been done by the investigations; and 1t would DC
check upon school officers Of the same character as
those in the Fourth Ward. He hoped the Committee
would make the bylaw recommended in the report.
Mr. SHINE spoke at considerable length. and was
somewhat personal in his illusions TO MIR. tucker 80
tbat he was twice called to order The report he SAID,
charged him with falsehoOd. He threw back the
charge and said the report false. Mr. Tucker was
getting DID, feeble and beside himself If it were not
for bis grey hairs he should be made to prove the state
mens against the speaker. 1t would be njust e TO
adopt a report charging him with falsehood. Mr..
Tucker assumed the place of nqustor over the Fourth
Ward.
Mr.. TUCKER said he had merely done his duty, and
that involved injustice TO none.
The motion Of Mr.. Waterbury was carried.
The resolution declaring the dismissals illegal was
adopted.

bylaw which declared the Board always adjourned at

REGATTA OF THE BRooKLYS YACHT CLUB.-The
adjourned regatta of this Club was sailed yesterday

THE TAXES FOR NEXT YEAR.-Tbe Joint Board Of
Aldermen and Supervisors held an adjourned meeting
in tie Common Council chamber last evening, and
spent the session in discussing a resolution appropri-
aing $1,000 for School purposes, in addition to the
$l60,73O originally recommended by the Committee
appointed to fix the amounts required for the several
Departments. At the previous meeting an amend
ment increasing the entire cum TO Sl707D was
adopted with the understanding that the flO0OO ad-
dtonal should in the purchase of books for
the pupils. The whole matter was then referred to
the Corporation Counselor for his opinion as to the
legality of the measure. The Counselor, in reply,
states that the Joint Board has no lawful authority 10
vote money for the purpose of furnishing free books to
the Public Schools and adds: While it is true that
vour body is made the instrument Of raising the School
Fund vet when raised, you have no control over 1t,
and you cannot direct in what manner any portion of
the funds go raised shall be appropriated. That, in
my judgment, belongs exclusively to the Board of
Education"
The opponents of the measure held that it Illegal
TO the money; and further that if voted they had
no guaranty that il would be used in the purchase Of
books the Board of Education having some time since
decided by large majority not to furnish free books,
except 10 those who were unable TO purchase them.
The advocates of free books thought il would be much
better to expend money for that purpose than in main
tanning penitenaries and jais. The Eastern District
members were, mainly IN favor OF the appropriation,
that being the practice in Wiiamsburgh prior to con-
olidatioD while the members from the Western Dis
trict generally spoke against it. motion to strike
out the increased appropriation was carried by Il Yeas
to IL Nays. The original resolution, fixing the sum at
$780, 73O for school purposes was lost for want of
two-tbiId vote which was the same on the motion
to strike ont. Several attempts made to pass the
resolution in come form, but failed; and the Board
adjourned, without accomplishing any other business
until Friday afternoon at o'clock.
The friends of free books urge that as matters now
are, poor people who send their children to school, are
heavily taxed every few months for sets Of school
books which the whims interests Of the teachers
and school officers induce them to adopt. Thus it often
happens that parent purchases set of the particular
books then in use for his children only to find, after
few weeks that they useless and that he must be
at the expense of buying new ones, or go and plead
poverty, end set them free. Many poor parents are
too proud to humilate themselves in this way, and
would rather take their children from school, So the
little ores grow up without the advantages which our
State Educational system designed to confer upon
them. The children of New-York are provided with
books stationery states, pencils and other requisites,
absolutely free.
