1t was also resolved relative to the
budget of 1876. that the following changes
should be made, viz:
Rent, $4,000, transferred to stoves and
fuel; contingent, $1,000, transferred to rent;
repairs, $500, transferred to teachers, port

On resolution, subsequently amended,
the committee on supplies we're directed to
purchase $50 tons Of coal and seventy-fve

A petition was received relative to the
using of other text books than those au-
thorized by the board, and Mr.. Tracy pre-.
sented resolution that the Independent
Sixth Reader be used in the Upper and
Lower Girls High Schools as an elocution-
ary text book.
A long discussion followed, and many
votes were taken, but the result was that
the whole matter, and resolution of Mr..
Glaudin that the principals report what
books were used, was referred to the COM
committees on text books and High Schools.
A communication from the German Pro
testant Association, situated in the Sixth
District. was read. It merely asked that .
public school be established in the vicinity.
Judge Dibble stated that the association
had two rooms, with school furniture,
which they were willing to give for the
purpose. Some opposition being advanced,
on the ground that taking this, instead Of
trying to hire . building, would cause the
board to be accused of yielding to secterian
influence. Judge Dibble withdrew all mo-
tions in the matter.
Mr.. Walker, to settle the controversy,
then moved that q school be established
near the corner of Camp and Chestnut
streets, and the motion was carried.
On Mr.. Tracy's motion, blank books for
the reports of the conduct and efficiency of
teachers were furnished the superinten.
dent.
On motion Of Judge Lynch, Mrs. l. Smith,
FORTRESS of the MarigDy School, was dis

pointed.

Death Of an Army Decor.

A dispatch from San Antonio, Texas, an
nounces the death in that city of Captain
Charles A. Hartwell, Eighth United States
Cavalry, an officer we'll known and pleas
antly remembered in New Orleans. Cap
tain Hartwell, for his rank, was quite q
young man at the time of his death He
was native of Massachusetts,, and was ap-
pointed lieutenant in the regular army from
civil life in August, 1861, and assigned to
the Eleventh Infantry. he came to this
department with Msjor General Banks, in
1862, and served with distinction on the
staff of that officer. In 1863 he was ap-
pointed colonel of the Seventy-seventh
Regiment United States colored troops,
raised in this State, which regiment was
sfterward consolidated with the Tenth Regi-
ment United States Heavy Artillery (col.
ored). Colonel Hsrtwell remained in com-
mand of the artillery regiment until mus
tered ont of the volunteer service a. Baton
Rouge in the spring of 1867, being then a
Brigadier General by brevet. In the mean.
time he had been promoted to captsincy
in the regular army. In 1870 he was assigned
to the Eighth Cavalry, and his record has
since been part Of the record OF that regi.
ment, in tho Department of Texas. Cen
eral Hartwell was handsome and gallant
officer, an smiable and courteous gentle
man, . man liked by all who knew him.

A leading firm OF brokers sold bonds at
the Stock Board yesterday at ffay nine

from New York st half q point over. The

desire to fix an official quotation below the
real value.
Orders were received at the close indi-
eating Q strong demand in New York, and
this, perhaps, grows out of an official stats

Gently transmitted in response to inquiries

But the more probable reason is that
State securities appreciate with the pros

We have received from Messrs. Estes e.

a work of very considerable interest. 1t is
full Of information, and displays not little

mess of detail by conscientious citation of
authorities, in the impartiality with which
all possible sources of information have
been searched in learning. In finish, type,

has been issued by the American press. 1t
contains one fifth more matter than is to be

it is sold at less than half the price OF all
others. II is by far the cheapest encyclope-
dia at present existing, while the greater
range OF its eubjscts and the uniform ex-

Men Under Arms. .

The number of men at present main
tanned in the standing armies of civilized
nations, says the New York Sun, is not
ess than 5000, All these are
snatched away from useful industries
and condemned to idleness and vicious
ite, while the laboring people are taxed
for their support and for the costly ar
maments they require. The annual
amount of the military and naval bud
gets of Europe is 1886, 1853, 300; the loss
OF labor involved by the withdrawal OF
30 many men from productive industry
costs $3.50, ,874, ,46O; and the interest OF
capital invested in military and naval
establishments amounts to $l52, zoo, OO0.
This makes total of more than 81, ,4O0,-
100000 taken every year from the people.
of Christendom for the maintenance OF
military establishments. But this is
not all; for nearly as many more men
are re' uirsd to wait upon them in some
form or other, and they, too, become
consumers of the worlds supply OF
food. The first effect OF this is that the
finances of nearly all the European
states are embarrassed. On the other
hand, let us for a moment suppose that,
by an understanding with the great
lowers, disarming in the proportion OF
one half was effected. Immediately
more than $500, 900 men, from twenty
to thirty-fve years of age, constituting
the flower OF the population of that
age, are restored to the labors OF peace,
and at once an annual saving Of $780,
900, 900 is effected on the totality OF
European budgets-a sum which would
pay off in twenty years all the European
national debts.
