actuated the thirteen colonies to resist
oppression, and TO give their all in the

The order Of the Russian govern.
ment that all locomotives and roll ng

manufactured in Russia is heavy blow
to German industry. TO enable the
railways to detain locomotives and
carriages in Russia the government will
allow the materials to be imported duty
free, and will pay premiums and subsi,
dies to Russian manufacturers. The
decree, which will be promulgated in
few days, seems applicable TO new
companies but to be gradually exten-

BOARD nE EDUCATION.

Board met on Monday evening last, at
7.30 o'clock.
II. B. Shoemaker, President, in the chair.
Present-Messrs. Beadle, Stiles, Streets,
Applegit, Lott, Bright, Fish and Elmer.
On the call of Committees, the Visiting
Committee, to whom was referred the mat
ter of the crowded condition of the Gram
mar department of the Second ward School,
reported that they had inquired into the
matter and would report the following res
olution for the consideration of the Board:
ResoLoed, That two rows of seats be put
into the vacant room of the Second ward
school, and that an assistant teacher be i'm
mediately procured for the Grammar De-
partment, for SO long "a time as may be
necessary, to be paid at the rate of $50 per
month.
Action was deferred until later in the
evening
Bills ordered paid--Reeve & Fithian,
$S26.30, for books, stationery, &c, Frank
Fralinger, $3.50, services as .janitor of Lo-
der school; Reeve & Fithian, $l51 .62, for
books, stationery, &C.; Thomas H. Bowen,
81 IS, for repairing clock, &C.; Martin An
derson, $42.77, for repairing stoves, &c.
TIE resolution offered by the Visiting
Committee was taken up.
Messrs. Beadle, Streets, Applegit and
Fish advocated the passage Of the resolu-
tion, and presented a statement of the num-
Der of scholars Oh roll, the time occupied
in recitations, &C., showing that unless
plan was adopted similar to the one pro-
posed by the resolution, it was impossible
for the teacher to do justice to himself or
son was compelled to listen to some recita-
tions after school hours.
MIR. Shoemaker thought this commend
able i'll the teacher, and it would give him
chance to make reputation, but as to
the expense Of seating the room and en-
ploying an additional teacher, it was unnec-
essary, as the surplus scholars might be
distributed in other departments, OF attend
the First or Third ward schools. If it were
really necessary he would heartily endorse
the resolution.
DR.. Streets did not think it just to the
school to break up the Grammar depart
ment in the Second ward by sending the
scholars to other wards, and further the
Grammar departments of the other schools
were provided with assistants, one of which
has less average attendance. He could
not see why the Second ward school should
be crippled by such short-sighted policy
Mr.. Lott could not see that it was neces-
sary at present to go to the additional ex-
pense and trouble; that the Board should
endeavor to economic as much as possible,
although he did not wish to do anything to
hinder the cause of education.
The vote on the adoption of the resolu-
tion was taken with the following result:
Yea-Messrs. Fish, Bright, Stiles, Streets
Beadle, Applegit-6. Nay-Mcssrs. Shoe
maker and Lott.
Miss Matte Laning was then elected
teacher according to the provisions of the
resolution.

havior. "Well," he said, 81 have noticed
