THE SOUTHERN EDUCATIONAL AND
IID SOCIETY.

The Baltimore Gazette publishes the lost
monthly report OF the Charleston School OF the
Southern Educational aid Society, under the
charge Of the Rev. A. Toomer Porter. MIR.
John Hanckel, the Secretary and Treasurer
says in his report:
We have added twelve scholars and have
been compelled to employ an additional male
teacher, so as to enable the principal to have
more time for general supervision. The school,
although but recently established, already at-
tracts tho attention OF the community, anu uas
received many assurances OF satlstactlon from
the parents and guardians of pupils. as 10
the Homo for Boys, it is regarded as one Of the
most comprehensive, far-reachinS and beneh-
cent charities which has been extended TO the
South since our troubles. We have appllca-
lions from all parts OF the State for admission,
and as soon as the alterations needed IN the
Homo. recently purchased for this work, are
Completed we will be able to meet, to con-
siderable extent, this great want OF a people,
whose chief SORROW in their reverscs has been
the hopelessness of giving their children res
pcctabie education.

Of January-a youth who has been with us
from tho beginning, who has studied with
great iudu ,try and faithfulness, and has ac-
complishcd IN ono year as much as is general
ly done in two.
The Baltimore Gazette gays:
Although the society has been scarcely q
wear in existence, it is evident that tho gene
rous assistance given by Baltimore and New
York las not only been productive OF much
real good, but has given such ENCOURAGEMENT
to dishearteued people, that the school is al
ready IN the way to be supported by its friends
at and noar home. The monthly receipts from
the plrents and friends OF scholars already
reach an important amount, aud as the condl-
tion of the South continues to improve, it is
very evident that the citizens OF the different
Southern States will gradually be able to pro,
yido for their own schools. Though grateful
for charitable acts, the people OF tho South re-
ceive aid because it Is necessity, and they
look hopefully forward to the dny when they
will be no longer obliged to ask for it.

RESUMPTION OF SPECIE PAYMENTS.
Lecture BY v. n. Denslew.

Lecture by v. b. DemslOws
Tne last OF the series OF free lectures delivered
der the auspices OF the Cooper Union, "Socal and

Institute, on 1.-The Resumption OF Specie Pay
ments,n by Mr.. Van Buren, Densow. one Of the ed-
tors OF the tribune. Peter Cooper presided. The
haIl was not more than one-fourth nled.
The lecturer said that the question Of return
to specie payments was historically new
one. No government, under similar circumstances
he said, had ever resumed specie payments.
The speaker defined what rs meant as currency. IN
der this head is included not only what Ia known ss
currency proper, but the government bonds as well.

the bonds. The nominal interest on these bonds Is

day. our national credit being "a much involved IN

usually attributed to the increase OF the volume and
the decrease OF the value OF the paper currency.
Those who assign the difference in value to this
cause overlook the fact that private evidences OF
debt constitute Q part Of a peoples currency, and
that what the government failed to supply the people
would do. The late Secretary OF the Treasury has

able conductor ana musician have during this sea-

occasions very encouraging audience. The hall
was pretty well crowded last night The programme
was something out OF the beaten track, comprising
suite in canon form by Grimm, young German
composer OF the present day. eight part motet by
Bach, sung by the Mendelssohn Union: symphony
by Max Bruch; chorus, "Gypsy Lifen

by Tannhauser The suite has been played
before by Mr.. Thomas but never with Shch effect as
last night The string quartet In which he himself
took part was unanimously encored. There Is
hardly another composition OF the present day In
which the strings are so charmngly brought out.
The chorus and orchestra showed thorough training
and artistic appreciation OF the composers ideas In

that attention and precision ut the hands Of the large
