Saturday last a Mttwe or slaughter of birds
took place at Bnothby Hill, in Hartford

thought , IN direct contrarcn'ion ct the law under
which they hold their offices, to decree the sspen ion
of the public schools during the term commencing April
10th, 1869, at least to startled community some
explanation of this papablc usurpaton Of authority
The writer hopes possible cNen'hton on the oneiSe
of the amalle gentlemen constituting The County Board
that they have been misnforncl rs to the extent Il
their powers and advised not 10 comply with the plain
proviSinns of the School Law. This unwarnnab!e sls
pension is not the only instance in which they have oct
at naught its clear directions. Where individuals have
exered themselves aud contributed freely to build and
establish schools in reliance upon the faithful execution
by the Commissioners of their duties it is very rXn'pc
atng To find these .rtut6us efforts thus cooly lh"art
ed ny those to whom the Act OF Legislature primarily
entrusted this obligation. If however this antocratc
power assumed by the School Commissioners, i'll mani
Test violation Of the promsion in Section l. Chapter "
OF the School Law he pcrssvered it, it will nevertheless
be the unquestonble duty of the School District Boards
where such exist to keep OPEN the schools under their
charge, during the term commencing April 10th, 1867
in conformity with lines 10 and ~ of Sec Chap 4, Of
the Act of Assembly, and the County school Commission
es will bo bond pay the expenses Of tho schools so
kept open. OPiFEX.
