81. r. B. C."-Such was the cabalistic let
tiers inscribed upon card we received the 9TH
err togethec with these others, "Class of TOP.
H. s." Upon investigation we ascertained
that these letters We're the initials of society
composed of young gentlemen, members of the
graduating class of the Portland High School
and that they proposed giving social dance at
Reception Hall last evening. We were only
able to gaze upon the merry party for mo-
ment and found them indulging in the merry
waltz to the notes of "Love among the Roses"
exquisitey played by Chandler's Quadrille
Bend. 1t was a beautiful party, the ladies
looking particularly handsome and very ele-
gantly attired. while the gentlemen were ar
ravcd in full evening toilet. About fifty
couples were present, and we judge the fifteen
dances on the card were sufficient to keep the
feet busy late into the morning without count
ing tn, numerous round dances that are al
ways generously thrown in dd Hbitum.
GoRHAM VILLAGE is considered one of the

PORTLAND THEATRE.-Last evening Mr.. w.
c. Thompson's company from the new and ell
egant Opera House in Lynn, opened with a
very respectable audience in the latest Paris
ian sensation, now being played in the leading
cities Of the Union, entitled "Frou- Frou"
The beautiful lady and actress, Miss Josie Or
ton, took the leading part and sustained it
well. Mr.. Harry Crisp is very gentemanly
pleasing actor. The old favorite, Mr.. John
Murray, though not in a leading part, was re-
ceived with the ancient favor. Mrs. Murray, n
Portland lady, has sensibly improved since VIC
saw her make her debut here few years ago.
and she showed much industry in study and a
desire to labor for success. Several other
members OF the company acquitted themselves
well. This play will be repeated tonight,
when it will run smoother, as any drama does
on the secoLd performance The troupe is one
we'll deserving patronage, being free from al
exceptionable attendants, and which our best
lovers of the drama may freely countenance,
as we hope they may
ORION MURRAY THEATRIcALs.- We do not
wish to invade the precincts of the courtly To-
cal Editor of the PRESS, but as "an outsider"
please allow me to congratulate the lovers OF
the drama that SO excellent q company as the
Orion Murray troupe have appeared here, af-
ter the immoral leg show but just departed.
The drama is enrolling in many respects,
but its deseneracy operates against it in many
respects. Patronize the deserving that the
unworthy may not trouble us. Let the public
discriminate in favor OF the legitimate drama.
Josie Orion, as is generally known, is one of
the most sparkling and charming condolences
on the American stage. We remember her
years since, where she was a universal favor
lite, and her experience since at the South and
West and in New York has been fattering
indeed. "Frou-Frou" has been all the rage at
first class theatres for some months past, es-
pecially at Fifth Avenue, New York, Selwyn's
and the Museum in Boston, and elsewhere 1t
Is touching story of temptation and repent
ance, every heart being made better by its les
sons. John Murray, as every one here knows,
Is first class character actor, and ALWAYS is
good. Miss Orion as "Frou-F rou'' or "Gil-
berte, in the above-named play, is capital in
fact, unsurpassed. Mr.. Murray as "Baron de
Cambre" in "Frou-Frou'' is grand, and as
"trip Van Wrinkle" is not excelled except by
Joe Jefferson himself
The stock company is good one-the plays
are worthy-and SO let the good people give
the Orion Murray management full houses
every night, and recognize deserving merit in
! these curious times.

Mr. Merrill moved that the salary of Miss
Small, Assistant Mistress Of the High School,
be 5000 the coming year, and that of the I'd
Assistant Master be $500. Carried.
Mr.. Merrill moved that the additional $500
to the estimate OF the High School be added to
the salary OF Mr.. Chase, the Assistant Master,
and that the 5000 additional to the North
School be added to the salary of the Principal,
Mr.. Wentworth, and the additional $500 to
the estimate of the intermediate School be
added to the salary of the Principal, Mr.. Files
Carried. =
Itwa svoted that whenever a change of salary
has been voted it take place commencing the
1st of September next.
1t will be seen by the estimates that the $3.50
appropriation voted in preceding years for
the Orphan Asylum School was stricken
out this year. The feeling was that the
money was voted many years ago by the
city who afterwards foisted the matter on to
the School Committee, who had been in the
habit of voting the money yearly without hav-
ing any Voice in the management of the school,
and it was thought better that the city should
look after it.
Mr.. Dresser was elected Secretary Of the
Board pro tenn. or during the absence of Mr..
Hall.
The committee referred the vacancy in the
Park street school, occasioned by a temporary
absence, to the committee on that school.
Monday, the ID day of May, was added TO
the present school vacation, Oh motion of Mr.
Smith.
Messrs. Merrill and True were appointed a
committee to make arrangements for the in
PRODUCTION of penmanship into the schools.
The committee on the expense of an iron
fence with granite base for the North School
reported the cost would be from $1,000 to $500.
Voted to lay the report on the table,
The filling of the vacancy in the High School
Committee was referred to the Committee on
Assignments.
A communication from d. H. Cruttenden,
instructor of a training class at Gorham, call
ing attention to System of instruction and
education adapted to the studies taught in the
public schools" was read aud ordered TO be
placed on file.
The April bills amounted to $480.79. The
monthly returns Of the teachers of the differ
ent schools were accepted, from which we
learn that the average attendance at the High
School for April was 1862 out of 81, the mum.
Der registered at close of last month; West
School, LAG out of 175; Part street Grammar,
1859 out of 17S; North School, 1905 out of 1126;
