II the first days proceedings of the Teach

as reported 10y the Secretaries OF the conven-
ton, this sentence occurs:
''Sup't Kellogg exhonorated a teacher from
a slanderous report concerning him. circulated
by the press OF the County"
The above is sweeping charge, and embraces
the entire press OF this County, without lmta-
ton or exception.
We do not know who the person alluded to
Is but we are very certain that the TRUE NORTH
EBNER has not published any slanderous re-
ports or inuendoes against any teacher IN the
County. 1t is not the NoRTHERNER's practice
to publish slanderous articles against any IN
dividual, even when it is proposed that such
matter shall appear over the signature Of
correspondent, as Mr.. Kellogg well knows.
The statement must have been very careless

NoRTHERNER Is concerned, the speaker was
not justified in couehing his language in terms

ton Society paid out ga. They need to-day $500
to aid their old benelciares and much more for

PAYMENT TO oRoToN AQUEDUcT LABoRErs,

Comptroller Green paid yesterday the wages due
for May to the workmen employed on the line OF
the Croton Aqueduct. A. $. Cady Esq, Clerk Of

provided for the purpose, to the amount OF Al OOO
Ihere are large number OF men to be paid scat

II may be incidentally remarked that since com.

system OF paying the corporation workingmen on
the line OF their work, and they in consequence
nave not been obliged to lose q day every two
weeks, as formerly, In coming down town to the
CnamDerlain's once for their pay When the pay
rolls as In some instances contain the names Of

annually saved to the workingmen by the conside-
rate plan Of the Comptroller.

ALMOST A TUGBOAT DISASTER.
Collision on the North River-Exciting
Scene on n jersey CITY Eerryboat.

At ten minutes before six O'Clock last evening
the tugboat H. g. Lapham collided with the Jersey
City erryboat New York, of the slip at the foot OF
Cortlandt street, and was BADLY injured that 1t
was with difficulty kept from sinking. The tugboat
was proceeding from pier 10 and signaed the
ferryboat, but the latter being carried along by
the tide. Captain Sherman, OF the tugboat, says
he tried to back, but the crank came TO the dead
point and the two boats pushed steadily
towards each other til the tugbOat ran under the
starboard side, In front OF the wheelhouse. Then
followed crash, creaking and smashing of tim
bers, aLo shrieks OF women, who were on board the
ferryboat. But the most terrible scene OF all was
the loud roar that attended the sudden escape OF
huge volume OF steam from the boiler and which
was in the excitement OF the moment supposed TO
be an explosion The steam pipe leading rom the
beIler to the cylinder was wrenched from it's
socket, allowing the steam to escape and
progidentally preventing an explosion. The deck
hand OF the tugboat the engineer, William Martin,
and the fireman, Isaac Parks, Jumped overheard
and we're rescued In small boats Although the
pilot house and smokestack were Knocked clean
over, the captain held on for dear life till the deck
hands OF the ferryboat pulled him on board. The
cook, Richard Caul1ed, was rescued in similar
manner.
Roundsman william Hassin and Onlcers Archer,
Thomas, Fay and Mulvey hurried to the scene and
rendered assistance. The ferryboat Hudson City
was about to leave the slip when the collision oc-
CURED, and there was general stampede OF the
passengers backward to the bridge. The tupbOat
belonged TO Mr., William Reeves.

General Conference Action on the Amcri-
Bible Society Rcgretted-Dctcr-
mined to Stand by That Society.
The Methodist preachers continued their discus.
sion Of the doings Of the late General Conference
yesterday. Dr. Holdich led Off with some remarks
regretting the spirit evnced by the Conference
that all its Offices should be filed by members OF Its
own body. He also regretted the fact that several
Of its appontees had been placed in ofllce through
wholly and highly improper for such Christian
body to do. We condemn such intrgues in politi-
cal associations; how much more so, then, in the
General Conference. The Doctor spoke warmly on
the Conference action IN dropping from It's list OF
Society, of which he is secretary and has
been for ten years. He thought il was
hardly courteous considering that the Methodist
Church has received its prOpOriOnate share of do
nations for Its several missions every year. and
sometimes more than its proportion, and the more
so since the society has recently elected a Method
ist as its President. He hoped that the pastors
would on their own behalf see that collections con-
tnued to be taken up for this cause in their several
charges
Drs. Reid, Brown, Merwin, Woodruff and Others
spoke on this Bible Society matter, and expressed
the idea that the question had been sprung upon
the Conference toward the close its session. that
on Revisas or i'm the General Conference, and that
substantially the work Of two of the Bishops.
They hoped however, that the Church would be
kept in blssful ignorance Of the action OF the Con-
ference, and would continue to make subscriptions
and donations as usual.
The meeting decided, after next Monday TO adj
ourn until the first Monday in September, ana then
To take IN their vacation experiences.

The purse OF $4,000 offered by the Prospect Park
Fair Gronnds Association free for all horses with
the provision that Goldsmith Maid, Lucy,
Henry and American Girl should enter, closed

the Office of the Association in Brooklyn,

the liberaty OF the management deserved, as the
four above weU-kn0wn clippers were duly entered.

expressed q wish to meet the Maid and Lucy on

test providing that the necessary accompani-
ments OF good day and track may be had,

out the least doubt IL will be OF the most inter-
estipg OF its nature seen on any track for u long
time The purse il divided SO that 81, $50 win go 10
the first 81 $50 TO the second, 1000 TO the third
and $500 to the fourth horse, each receiving q
handsome sum; but the struggle for second place.
while perhaps IT. Is conceded that Goldsmith
Maid will be the winner will be OF the most
intense nature, and large sums OF money
will fnd their way 10 the pool box awaiting the re-
suit in this particular The conditions OF the race
are mile heats best three in Gye in harness, and
horse disancing the field to be only entitled TO the
hrst premium.
The Fleetwood Park Association at the same time
onered similar purse, to be trotted under like
conditions and II closed last night at Johnson's,

result as That OF the Prospect Park Fair Grounds AS
