heed the words that were about to fall from
his lips, and Dibble being obliging, postponed
spoke. He said:
"The Director alluded to in the article is

Gaudet introduced resolution providing
for an increase of the number Of teachers
ent number, to four hundred and fifty, and
that the number be increased from those
teachers recently employed, and that the
Committee on Teachers be instructed to re-
duce salaries accordingly.
motion was made to refer to the Com
mittee on Teachers; and on this considerable
discussion took place, during which Pinch
back took occasion to say that he had had
enough of secret sessions, and that hereafter
he wanted all proceedings of the Board to be
public. He wanted to be judged by his &C.
tons, and did not want to be made RESPONSE
BILE any more for the actions of others.
After Gaudet explained that his idea was to
pay $50 teachers with the money that had
been appropriated to pay 432. all objections
to the reference of the resolution were with
drawn.
The Committee on Teachers submitted the
following names of unassigned teachers, to be
placed on the supernumerary list:
Miss Mary Vessel, Keller School; Miss
Florence Smith, Dryades Boys and Girls :;
Miss Jennie G. Dickson, Magnolia Girls :;
Miss Sarah Jane West. st. Mary; Miss Mary

Ellen Carey. Marigny and McDonogh; Miss
Josephine Wrigley, Elmira and Washington.
Dibble reported that the coal contractor
had failed, and that the probabilities were.
that the coal for which the board had paid
sixteen hundred dollars would not be seen.
He said that the board, however, was secured,
PEELED the contractor to furnish bond guar
anteeing its delivery.
The matter was referred jointly to the
Committee on Supplies and the President Of
the board.
Ingraham moved the appointment of
committee to investigate the charges against
Mccarthy.
Pinchback wanted to know who preferred
the charges.
Mccarthy said the BULLETIN; that he knew
he was the man meant in the BULLETINS ar,i-
Gle. as he had treated lady contemptuously
Pinchback said that the papers had pre-
ferred other charges; that they had charged
that there were persons employed in the
schools of immoral character, who had OBJ
tanned their places by immoral favors. He
thought this charge should be Investigated.
If he had voted for a person of immoral
character he did not know it; but if there
were such in the schools he would be the
first to turn them out.
Lynch agreed with Pinchback, and moved
that the committee to investigate Mccartney,
investigate the character of the teachers.
Bourges said that he thought the proper
course would be to appoint committee to
call on the editors of the BULLETIN and obtain
names and particulars. He thought it rather
a delicate matter to investigate the character
of ladies. He moved to table Lynch's mo-
ton.
The motion to table was lost
Pinchback asked division of the ques-
ton, and Lynch Withdrew his motion, and
the motion of Ingraham prevailed.
The following were appointed as the COM
mittee to investigate: Mccarthy, Ingraham,
Stamps and Bourges.
Pinchback moved the appoin. ment of
committee to call on the editors OF the Bull
LETIN, and the motion was carried, and Pinch
back, Lynch and Massicot were appointed.
After some routine business the board ad-
burned.
