A special meeting of the Board Of School
Directors was held last evening.
Present-Messrs. Russell, Dibble, Thomp-
SOD, McCarty. Rey. Mcconnell. Carey,
Longstreet, Clark and Boothby.
Judge Dibble, the president. in the chair
Jhe meeting was called for the purpose
Of taking the necessary action for making
the estimate for the expenses Of the schools
for the year 1874. Judge Dibble. after
stating his reason FOR calling the board TO-
gether. called on Or. Clark to take the
chair.
Mr.. Thompson. chairman oS the finance
committee. presented the report on the ssti.
mate $Or the year 1874.
Judge Dibble thought that as by the law
the city was compelled 90 keep the school
houses owned by the city in repair, tho item
Of $4,000 ought not 60 be included. It
this item were stricken out IL would seduce
the estimate $4,000 less than that o2 tho
previous year, which was s46s,sl5 60.
Judge Dibble's melton was carried, and
the item of 81, coo for repairs Of buildings
owned by the city was stricken out
On motion resolution was passed thas
the president be instructed to inform the
Council that the estimate for repairs of the
school board was e25 900. in the form Of >
supplemental budget, and reaues. the Coun-
Gil TO include that item in their budget.
On the item of $4,000 for books tor ia
digenc pupils, Mr. Thompson said he had
4 hoo hnn II
distributed.
General Longstrees agreed with Mr..
Thompson, and thought the item ought 70
be stricken out.
Judge Dibble said that perhaps mistakes
were made. but that sequired change Of
administration. He did not desire to de-
prive the board Of the means 10 give chill
dren books when they really Geeded them.
The State owed every child an education,
and this was one Of che means These
books are delivered on an application
signed by the principal. These ladies and
gentlemen could be held sesponsible for the
proper distribution
Mr.. Boothby thought such al appropria-
tien was necessary.
General Longstrees said 10 was not prac
ticable to find out in every case. He
thought rule ought to be adopted either
to pay for all the books sr none.
Mr.. Mcconnell thought +here Vas no
time when books were more needed to be
furnished to such pupils than the present.
He moved to make the estimate $500,
which was agreed to.
On motion of Judge Dibble an item Of
$4,000 was added to the estimate. for re-
pairs of buildings hired by The board, not
owned by the city, where the leases require
such repairs to be made by the board.

Rutter Factories.

just now, says the Utica Herald.
factory butter, like factory cheese,
brings q good price. In butter fac.
tories, as in cheese factories, q super
ior class of help is employed, and We
think the expenses to the patrons are
lightened and the profits increased.
We find it so among our cheese factor
les, and no farmers's wife who has
once been rid of cheese making will be
willing to return the old method. It
would he Just so with farmers wives
if the farmers in the butter districts
were to once adopt the factory system
of making butter. It is such a relief
to the family. And as the sales are
generally made oftener, there is the
advantage of always having ready cash.
The same mode of dividing expenses
aud the proceeds on sales may be
employed in butter factories that are
employed in cheese factories. Or.
only cream might be taken to
the factory. As to the buttermilk
and skinned milk that may be
fed to hogs or calves. IT the factory
is conducted on the pro rata system,
a good way would be to purchase
calves or hogs with the money of the
patrons, taking those of the patrons at
a fixed rate per pound, put them to-
gether and employ a man to take care
Of them. If any additional feed is
needed, let it be purchased with the
common fund, by an executive COM
mittee. In the Fall. when the calves
or hogs are disposed of, let the profits
be divided pro rata. 1t seems to us
that this would give satisfaction, and
We know it would make freor, happier
homes, to get rid of the care and
drudgery of the dairy. This, to us, is
q vital consideration, and induces us to
favor any kind of profitable association
that will lift the burdens from the
backs of our women

case are as follows: Some time ago 1.
Vaudois student got into an alteration
with another student named Ilaussmanu,
who, it appears, had the reputation of be-
ing somewhat quarrelsome. The two
adversarles were separated by their
friends; but Hausmenn threatened to
"correc" his opponent. An opportunity
to do 50 soon presented itself, which the
former did not fail to make good use Of.
Meeting the Vaudois student, one evening
in" narrow street, he fell upon him, sud-
denly gavo him murderous blow on the
head with . bludgeon, and left him
bleeding on tho ground. The wound was
very severe; nevertheless tho young man
recovered. The quarrel was now taken
up by third purity, a student, named
Konc', OF Lucerne, and friend Of the
vnudois. lie demanded satisfaction Of
Hauesmann, who is Of Shurgau and u
member of the i" Helvetia.". A duel with
pistols was accordingly arranged, and the

Saturday morning. llausSmnnn fired first
and missed his antagonist; Ronoa then
hred and hit bis opponent in the fore.

course Of y couple OF hours, while Ronca
made his escape as quickly as possible.

Caleb Cushing Versus Fernando Woods
DOE...A (,urlO,,S (,ase

A suit of a novel description has
been entered before the District Courts
in Washington by Caleb Gushing. A
nelgh6or OF his has u dog which keeps
up an incessant barking both day and
night, very much to the annoyance of
THE distinguished gentleman. He
claims that it disturhs his rest ut night.
and very materially interferes with his
studies and the transaction of business
during tho day; that both his health
and professional duties suffer thereby.
and he asks that damages to tie
amount of $4,000 be awarded him
against the owner of the dog. THOUGH
the case may seem somewhat amusing.
it contains the important point as to
whether any person can kcepan animal
even within his own encloeej propertv.
which by it's noise iaterferes with tie
peace and comfort of the neiQhbor-
hood. The decision, therefore. is
looked for with something of
interest by the quiet and sleep.
loving people of Washington,
and should the veteran lawyer
and diplomatist win his case, it will he
but the precursor of many more suits
of q similar character, unless the own
ers of the bowling and barking nui-
sances should take warning from the
verdict, and SO effectually muzzle the
animals as to prevent any more COM
plants. It will be a queer complaint
to Gushing for the Washingtonians
hereafter to remember him in connec-
ton with 1.-The dog days." It appears
that the nominal defendant, Mr.. Kelly,
is in charge of Fernando Woods resi-
dence, and the dog is the property of
the New York Representative. Before
drawing up his complaint Mr.. Cushing
consulted with well-known Spanish
barrister, who sustains intimate pro-
fessional relations with Mr.. Gushing,
and who advised him that in Spain
both the law and the administration OF
justice at all times afforded ample pro-
lection to the subject IN such cases, so
that both by the civil and the common
law MIR. Gushing deems his case COM
plete. Mr.. Kelly relies upon a paid
up corporation license to justify his
retention of the dog.
