DRIFTING.

Drifting away from from each other,
Silently drifting apart
Nothing between but the worlds cold screen,
Nothing to lose but heart.
Only two lives dividing
More and more, day by day;
Only ons soul from another soul
Steadily drifting away.
Only . mans heart arriving
bitterly hard with its doom;
Only . hand tender and bland,
Slipping away in the gloom.
Eething Of doubt or wrong;
Nothing that either can cure;
Nothtug 10 shAme. nothing to blame,
Nothing to do but endure.
The world cannot stand still;
Tides ebb and women change;
Nothing here that N worth n tear,
One love less--nothing strange.
Drifting away from each other,
Steadily drifting apart;
No wrong to each that the world can reach,
Nothing 10 t--but . heart

AS two of these houses are to take
the places of the unsightly and un-
comfortable houses (bOth on land not
belonging to the city,) now occupied
by the Eighth street and Kohler street
schools, there will be net increase of
only nine class rooms. These added
to the twenty-five class rooms now in
use will make the entire number thir-
ty one. If you estimate sixty pupils
to each room there will be accommo.
dations for 800 children but if you
estimate upon the basis OF fifty pupils
to each room, a number sufficiently
large for any teacher to govern and
instruct, to say nothing about the
right of children to pure air and am
pie space, you will have sittings for
1900 pupils.
During the month ending, Feb. 25th
1857 names were registered in the
different classes. An addition of 400,
of whom nearly 200 are waiting to en-
ter school as soon as their localities
are supplied with schools of the proper
grade, will fill all the class rooms
asked for In this report. AS the last
census showed a population of 1900
children of school age it is reasonable
| TO assume that the census to be taken
before these houses can be Guilt, will
contain the names of at least 1900
school children. Though some we'll
Informed persons believe there will be
a larger number, the estimate make
is sufficient to satisfy every reasona-
BILE person that the Board could not
be accused of needless extravaganza
if they asked the citizens of Los An
geles to vote for special tax suffi-
cient to make the improvements SO
imperatively demanded.
AS an evidence of the prospective
increase in the number of pupils, if
proper accommodation are provided,
/ may refer to the fact that when I
become connected with the depart
ment there were eleven teachers and
five unoccuped school-rooms. In less
than two years there were twenty
three teachers, and five new school
rooms had been erected. The general
impression is that our population will
increase more rapidly in the future
than at any previous period in its his
tory.
Though comparisons are commonly
considered odous, they may have
their use in stimulating those who
are ambitious, to make greater exer-
tiOns and in answering the complaints
of those who are hindering progress

To the President and Members of the
Board Of Education Of the City of

GENTLEMEN,-In accordance with
the requst made at your last meeting,
L herewith present an estimate OF the
number and probable cost of school
houses demanded by the necessities of
the school depar tment of which you
are the legal guardians. In making
this estimate, have carefully con-
sidered the present wants of the de-
partment, and the rapid growth Of
the certain localities. You will per-
ceve that the cost of the improve.
ments recommended is evidence that
no money will be thrown away on
useless expense for architectural or
naments. Considering the numerous
demands made upon the taxpayers
of city growing so rapidly and de-
manding so many mprOvements, the
estimates are for plain, substantial
buildings.
From the numbers given at the
close of the present report, it will be
apparent that all the accommodation
suggested will be needed before the
close of the next school year.
l recommend the erection of the
following school houses:

The Drphans,i Christmas.

The greatest charm, OF Christmas-time
may, indeed, consist in the joyous gayety,
the Frightening of the links offriendship and
fellowship, and the glad retnions Of fami-
lies which come with it; but the greatest
use of Christmas-that which makes 1t
helpful thing to human souls-is the oppor-
tunity and invitation it offers to charity
the strong appeal and ample occasion to
share our cheer and happiness with those
who know little of either. Now, amid those
whose needs make strongest summons on
the open hand and generous heart, who has
a higher place than the female orphan
Whose lot is so desolate, whose future SO
unpromising, as that Of little girl at once
poor and parentless-whosec claim so strong
upon the liberal and compassionate?
Tomorrow, at st. Joseph's Orphan Asy-
lum, we may, in behalf OF some OF these
stricken ones, pay little of the debt which
happiness always owes to misfortune, and
plenty to privation. From 8 in the morn
ing until like hour at night the orphans
ask us to come, say "Hsppy Christmas" !"
and bring some little offering which will
help to make it happy. The toys and
trlnkets which more fortunate children eX-
pect, they do not ask. These bereft ones
ask only for food. Who will refuse his
help-help to them and help to the Sisters
of Charity whose life is given to these
fatherless ones and motherless?

The SIruATIoN.-W Washington, December
1s.-Within the past few days there has
been an evident stiffening in the backbone
OF the northern Democracy upon the presi-
dental question, and in the ratio that they
seem aggressive their opponents are put
upon the defensive and perceptibiy weaken.
The aspect Of affairs in the West is threaten
ing; next week New Jersey is expected to
move, and then voice from New York will
be heard. All Of these things give encour-
agement to the Democratic Representatives
here, and as consequence Tilden stock is
rising. The Radicals are and have been all
along playing game Of bluff, and when
"called" it will be found that they have
not I" filed" and that they have been beaten.
1t is beginning to be feared by the Radical
leaders that the people are moving in the
matter, and before the storm that will be
raised they vii! go under.-Ate1andria Ga

THINGS IN NEW YoRK.-The New York
correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger
writes: eH
There is seemingly more hopeful feel
ing to-day in regard to the political diff
Guilty than at any time heretofore, growing
out OF the improved disposition mani
tested in Congress to discover some COM
mon ground upon which the two houses
can meet each other. 1t is believed that
this disposition will grow during the holi-
day recess, when members will have an OPP
portunity to become better acquainted with
the views OF their constituents. So far as
this city is concerned, 1t IS risking nothing
to assert that the prevailing sentiment
among men OF both parties Is in favor OF o
speedy aud honorable adjustment.

THE THEATRE-RUY BLAs.-Fechter i'm
proves upon acquaintance. It takes an aC-
dience some time to get accustomed to his
foreign looks and ways; but that done, pro-
per appreciation is pretty sure to follow,
and he is bound to be recognized as finish
ed actor, with strong and original ideas,
perfect command OF voice, and unusual
facial expression. His pronunciation is
Just in the slightest tainted with French ac-
cent, while he is decidedly German in ap-
pearance. In Ruy Bias last night he had
full scope for the display Of his powers,
and as the ambitious senator, the lordly
Minister of State, the disgraced lover and
defender OF bis Queen, he showed forth the
talents that first made him famous, though
perhaps they are now the least bit dimmed
by age. Cyril L. Searl as Don Salluste in
creased in no small degree the good opinion
Richmond people have Of him. Miss LIZ
zie Price as the Princess De Newberg sat-
isfactorily filled her part. Mr.. Yarrey is
always good, and was quite up to the work
last night as Santa Cruz. Miss Marie Wei
lesley, who appeared here some years ago
and created fine impression, was in the
caste, though not prominently. Tonight
Ruy Bias will be repeated.

Editors DISPATCH: Will you not be kind
enough to call the attention of the police
authorities to section II, chapter "A, and
also section 49,, chapter 33, Of the City Or
dinances, concerning the firing Of pop
crackers and blowing OF horns? Christmas
is approaching; !; but instead OF observing it
as religious holiday it has generally been
desecrated by excuses Of all sorts, and our
city on that day presents q scene OF the
most perfect lawlessness, sanctioned, it
seems, by our authorities, IN defiance OF
plain law and ordinance. II there are those
who enjoy the shooting of fire-crackers let
them do it on their own premises to their
hearts, content, but do not compel thou
sands Of others, for the sake OF few, to
put up with such nuisances, on Christmas
day particularly. Truly yours, W.
