IMPROVEMENTS IN abold's
Ne1c Drug Store.-1fthe lordly secesh rebels who
were wont to promenade Broadway in the sum-
mer and autumn, and who SO confidently pre-
dicted that grass would commence growing in
that thOroughfare so soon as they decided to
shake the Dust off their feet and stop shaking
s the dust out of their pockets for our benefit.
could just take one glance back upon their old
promenade, as many of them, we doubt not
would be glad TO do, they would discover two
things-frSt, how silly and self. conceited thew
were, and second, how easily we can do with.
ont them. They would find changes in Broad
way, to be sure, but instead OF grass and weeds
they would find marble taking the place of
brick. IRON the place OF wood and all the evil
denCes OF improvement and prosperity, instead
of dilapidation and decay.
Not the least among the more recent improve
ments that would strike their attention would
be the magnificent new drug store and chemi-
cal warehouse lately opened by the renowned
philadelphia pharmacentist, Mr.. H. T. H2lm-
bold, at No 5si Broad way, adjoining their old
tavorite resort, the Metropolitan Hotel. This
establishment is just Row the lion among the
hisefffj'qns. pf sRrP5dWaE, and is daily and

BOARD OF EDUoATION.-There was
regular meeting of the Board held last night,
in the Council Chamber. The Mayor presided.
resolution was offered by Inspector Rob
ertson, to the effect that all outside moneys re-
ceived in the Public Schools, should be appro-
priated under the direction of the Super
intendent, for the purchase of apparatus for the
use of the Schools.
resolution in favor of the introduction of
Browns Grammar into the Public Schools,
which had been offered by Col. Robertson at
the last meeting, was taken up and passed
On motion the vote by which the resolution
was passed was reconsidered, and after some
debate was declared unanimous.
Inspector Paine offered resolution that the
Committee on Property be instructed to pre-
pare plan for making an addition to Adams
School, and to furnish the report by the next
meeting, which resolution was carried.
Inspector Paine, from Special Committee,
reported plan for the erection of building
in the Washington District, to be called the
Union school house. 1t is to be three stories in
height and to accommodate 604 scholars. It
consists of three departments, and there are es-
Inmates for three different sized buildings, but
the same design, varying from $1,000 to
$4,000
Inspector Ramaley, moved that the Special
Committee on School Houses advertise for
proposals for the purchase Of lots on jackson
street, for the purpose of erecting building
for School house, on the ground that the To-
cality selected by the plan Con Broadway was
not central enough.
Inspector Robertson supported the view of
the subject taken by Inspector Ramaley.
The whole matter on motion of Inspector
Peckham, was referred back to the Committee
with power to advertise for bids for lots.
The Board adjourned until Monday evening

and p were in dispute about n portion of
the public lands then about to be offered for
sale, under proclamation Of the President. each
claiming the right to purchase the whole of
the land in dispute, to the exclusion of the
other and ofall others, by virtue ofalleged i'm
prOvements, but being unable to adjust their
differences before said sale, entered into a
written contract. whereby it was agreed that
each should furnish NJ one half the money neces-
sary to make the purchase, that NJ should bid the
land OFT in his own name, in trust for Them
and afterwards should convey the same, agree
ably to the decision or direction OF five disin-
terested citizens, to be chosen rs therein pro-
vided for. Held, In an action by to compel
NJ to convey to him an undivided half of the
land purchased by him under this arrangement
that the arbitratOrs provided for were author
lied to direct the whole or any part of said land
to be conveyed to either party, according to
the merits of their claims respectively. That
they were not to be selected for t. G mere pur-
pose of dividing the land equally between the
parties to said agreement, and that the plain
tiff could not rightfully demand of convey
ance for any part of land, unless said arbitrat-
Ors so directed. Uel1, also, Aside from the
Statute abolishing resulting trusts, that the
presumption that Il party who furnishes the
consideration for the purchase OF real estate,
intends the purchase to be for his own benefit,
may be rebutted by evidence showing that he
did not SO intend; and that in this instance the
terms of the instrument itself, and the circum-
stances attending the making of it, repel the
idea that the parties intended the land to be
purchased for the benefit of each in proportion
to the amount of the purchase money furnished
by him.
Where party after laying the proper predi-
cate, offers to prove particular contract By an
alleged copy, which is ruled out under objec-
lions, and he then produces other evidence
from which it is found that such contract was
in fact made, he cannot avail himself OF any
error which the court may have committed in
rejecting the alleged copy, or any other evil
dence offered merely to prove the contract
which is found TO exist
