ing witness a scoundrel. Witness had never

TIE FRIENDS OF MIXED SCHOOLS HAVE
ANOTHER Observation-Disclosures meeting Of the
eolored people who oppose the course of Mr.
John IL. Brooks of the District council in rela-
ton to the normal school bill. was held last
night at Union League Hall, Henry Piper in
the chair, and j. l.. n. Bowen secretary The
committee TO wait on the Governor reported
that he had promised to hear them to-day
c. \. Thomas read a prepared argument to
show that the course pursued by Mr.. Brooks
was contrary to the act organizing the school
system, and in support of his premises cited
some German authority, who says that the gem
eral or fundamental law was above specific or
inferior law.
W. a. Cook, esq, being present, was ques-
straker, Purvis, and Cryer. He said denunci-
alton would do no good whatever, and the pro-
per remedy was to go to the Congress of the
schools; had been committed to il by An oficiai
opinion during Mr.. Bowen's administration. On
motion 2O,6OO copies of the address of d. A.
Suaker and that of G. M. Thomas, with the
views Of W. A. Cook were ordered 10 be printed
j. Sella Martin said he was q personal friend
of Mr.. Brooks, and he had no cause to blame
Mr.. Brooks for his action. The great thing to
be done is to swing wide the doors of the public
schools and let all in. He advised when the
normal school il dedicated to be on hand and
make application for admission.

At the session OF the Board held December 3,
1873, very lengthy letter was submitted, over the
signature OF "E. G. Cockey,n protesting vehe-
mently against the reintroduction OF corporal
punishment, iercely berating the teachers rs q
body and insisting that It was lack OF dignity on
their part which made improper conduct OF school
boys possible. The letter was full OF
TEMPER AND IGNORANCE,
and the writer proposed that 'ff the rod is 10 be
