THE LATE SCHOOL BOARD.

! THE LATE SCHOOL BOARD.
The friends of education will rejoice a
the total and final defeat of its enemies, in
dicated by the judicial proceedings il an
other place in this mornings paper. The
defunct school board had already survived
| its legal existence tull two years. During
that time it has maintained itself 10 power
by legal chicanery, which succeeded by
calling to its aid every species Of prejudice
and misrepresentation. We repeat, the
members of the late board have had not a
shadow of legal existence during that time
They have generally filed their OWL
vacancies. We do not deny tha
several worthy and intelligent men have
belonged to the board, but they were gen.
orally powerIess and without influence.
The book-swapping and pay roll shaving
influence have had their own way, and
these were associated with, or rather pre-
ceded by highly valiant and chivalrous
raid upon the female teachers for their
political opinions; several ladies were ex-
PEELED for their supposed sympathy with
the Republican party, vide the official
report of the Investigation Committee of
Congress.
Now that the legal School Board IS in
full and undisputed possession Of the sit
uation, without the possibility Of revul-
sion, we venture to lay down our views OF
what the policy of the new School Board
should be. aud from the known liberallty
of the members we feel warranted in say
ing such will be its policy. No teachers
will be removed for political causes; their
free entertainment of opinions will be no
obstacle to retaining or obtaining places.
Competency and fitness will be the stand
ard, and no changes will be made except
such as are made the imperative duty Of
the board in order to restore at once those
female teachers who were removed for en-
tertainiug their honest sympathies and
opinions.

for opinions sake was not lost sight OF
even in the dying hours of the moribund
board. Notices were given to the teachers
through the press not to make the reports
required by law, and only to communi-
cate with those who elected them" Of
course, they did not dare to publicly
threaten the teachers from performing
their duties, but means were taken and
the effect was we'll nigh obtained Of
intimidating them from the performance
of their duties. SO that even up TO last
night several teachers had not yet made
out the reports requested Of them. out OF
pure fear that the old board would turn
them out for complying with the law. Ali
this was based upon the idea that the old
board would, by some legal bubble, OBJ
tain temporary extension Of power.
Fortunately that fear is now dissipated,
and the cause of public education opens
for the future with brighter prospects than
ever before.

For years the church under my charge has strug-
gled under all the disadvantages of q bad location
and miserable buildng-a location obscure as well
nconven lent to large portion of the population
of Jefferson City; building that suffers in COM
parson with even the colored churches. Through
the liberality of citizens of New Orleans and vicn
ty have recently secured beautiful and central
site on Napoleon avenue. We now need the funds
to erect suitable house of worship the lot. For
this purpose, the ladies of the church have deter
mined to hold fair at Union Hall, corner of Mag

May next / now most earnestly appeal not only
to the congregations of the Presbyterian Churches
in New Orleans, but to the public at large to help
