There is no comfort sweeter, tenderer, than this,
When we have pressed upon dear child's lips,
the kiss
That seals them fast forever, than to feel and
know,
That In whatever parts oar wandering feet may
go,
This little one is safe from all that may betide;
Though others grow to men ana women at our
side Eus
And bring us sorrow, this dear one is always fair
And pure, and young, knows no temptation
sin, or care.
Though others leave US lonely, this one ever near
Brings to US always fresh, its happy childish
cheer.
So may these parents pluck from out their grief
this joy. .4auya
That Death gtUes them to keep, their only little
boy. F.A.BD.

COUNCIL vs. SCHOOL BOARD.

WHAT THE BOARD OF EDUCATION WANTS,
AND WHAT THE CITY COUNCIL PROPOSES
TO GIVE.
For number Of years past the bone Of
contention between the Board of Education
and the City Council has been the amount
of tho annual appropriations for the sup
port of the Public Schools. The demands
of the Board have invariably been higher
than the amounts appropriated by Council,
and in addition q failure to collect all the
tax levied has left yearly deficiency be-
tween the sums appropriated and the
amounts really turned over to the Board.
This year the Board asked for 81, 900,
but in their estimate of appropriations for
the coming year the City Council Finance
Committee put the school guardians off
with the usual amount-$6O,0OO Then the
Board began to wrestle with the financial
problem. The Finance and Account Com
mittees were directed to confer with the
Council Finance Committee, relative to an
increase Of the appropriation, and a special
committee of ten was appointed to consider
the estimated expenses of the Board, with
view to the curtailment thereof. .t
At meeting of the Board of Education,
last evening, these committees reported.
The first two reported, that Mr.. Hayes,
chairman of the City Council Finance Com
mittee, had stated that the appropriations
were now in the hands of Council, and his
committee could do nothing with them.
The committee of ten reported that they
could not find q superfuous penny in the
estimate of the Boards expenses for the
ensuing year, and that the schools could
not be properly conducted for less than
81, 900. g. .-.,..,
Then the Secretary was Instructed to
transmit to City Council an official copy of
the entire proceedings of the Board in refer
ence to the financial question, and here, for
the present, the subject rests.
