tbs question of ab~olishing the col

and throwing the doors Of all the public
schools wide open to the colored chill
dren of the city, which is row agitating
the minds Of those having charge of ed
ucational matters, has caused consider
able feeling among the colored popula-
ton Of New York as well as among those
white citizens whose old time principles
are not easily efseed. The question
was sprung upon the Board of Educa-
ton at its last stated meeting, when
Commissioner Strand made the sweep
ing proposition to do away with the col.
ored schools and to mix the children Of
colored with those Of white parents 10
the educational sstablishuen ts Of the
city. The proposition, which it is now
believed was the result Of considerable
elaboration on the part Of several com.
missioners, was at oncs referred to the
committee on eolored schools for inves-
tigation and report but pending their
action the subject has led to the express
sion Of many views on the part of those
particularly affected by the proposed &C
ton Of the board Of education.

A DEAD BEAT.-One Of the com
mon funny scenes in the minstrel show
is the feigned death scene, gotten up
for speculation. The husband is laid
out, and the supposed widow begs for
money to bury the body. When they
get it they have a good time. This
was actually carried out in Brooklyn
a few days since. A lady touched by
the grief Of the newly-made widow,
contributed literally toward the burr
al expenses and retired, but before
reaching the street she missed her
mufi, and returned hurrielly to the
chamber Of death in search of il. AS
she entered she heard a voice, as from
the tomb, saying: "Ole omen, II
you'll just hump yourself right lively
this here dead husband business is
gwine to pay purity well, "yOu bet.
And there, sitting up in the bed, were
the "remains" counting their money!
The mere presence of few dollars in
the house had brought back the poor
husband to life. But, hearing some
body drop casual remark touching
the police, the now happy couple has
tily removed from the neighborhood.
