THE MINOR FUND.
Education of the Colored Youth.

few months ago an account was given In tne
NATIONAL REPUBLICAN, of the creation Of what
was known as the minor fund, and the purposes
for which it was to be used. This fund now
amounts to some $4,000, we'll invested, and the
interest is expended in employing proper in
structOrs for the education Of the colored youth,
which was the chief object of raising this amount
The existing school is known as the normal de-
partment Of Howard University, and, while it is
conducted in the University building, yet in man.
agement it is entirely independent and distinct
from the other departments Of that institution and
under separate officers. 1t was located there in
the inception of this movement as being more ad-
Vantageous for the pupils, and at the same time
would prove tributary to the class Of the uniyer-
sity. In this respect il has succeeded admirably,
and many of the scholars graduating therefrOm,
DESTROYS of making further progress in classes
higher than the school afforded, have received its
finishing touches, and entered the university
qualified to enter at once upon collegiate course.

well, who have given.the subject considerable at
tentfon, and concluded to make q new departure.
They have decided 20 locate the Normal school in
some other section of the city, and are now on the
lookout for q suitable place Believing that it is
for the best Interests of the school and
meled by any immediate connection with
other institutions Of learning, and that its
be more strongly shown and felt, the committee
have concluded TO place 1t apart from the Uniyer-
sity and have it separate in its entire manage
ment, Whatreputation il will then achieve as o
school Of excellence and proficiency will belong to
It wholly, and there will be no honors to divide
with other educational institutions. While this
course has been resolved upon, no change will
take place during the present year, but the CON-
mittee hope and expect, by the next scholastic
tc--... to have SELECTED another location for the

with the best instructors that Just compensation
can procure and nothing will be LEFT undone that
money can supply that will add to its efficiency
as q Normal school. While the committee are
intrust ed with the disbursement of this endows
ment fund.- they do not propose to be either lavish
or extravagant in their expenditures, but will at
the same time respond to all reasonable appeals
that are made on the treasury, and which are
shown to be for the advancement of the school,
The fund is TO be used for the education of the
colOred youth, and 10 that purpose alone will it
be applied.
