In the Right Direction.

The Dayton School Board, at their
last meeting, increased Miss Leslie's
salary IS per month. This is move
in the right direction. Miss Leslie
IS an excellent teacher, and the re
duction in her salary at the begin.
ming Of the present year was univers-
ally regretted. Good teachers are
seldom apt to be paid too much, aud
it is, in the long run, a wise economy
to pay them sufficient to retain their
services. We trust that the School
Board will, ere long, see their way
clear to place the salaries of both
our teachers where they we're at the
beginning of the present year.

XIV CONGRESS.


WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 24.--All
BUSINESS was suspended and the House
listlessly awaitsd the arrival of the Ser
geans at Arms with the absentees. The
members congregated In groups, smoking
and chatting. now and thsn interrupting
the monotony OF the proceedings With
roints or order, which had the effect OF
raising laugh, but not putting an end to
the deadlock. When an hour and half
had passed and bus one member Camp
had been brought in By the Sergeant at
Arms. MIR, Congsr moved that further
proceedings under the call be dispensed
with, stating that it was his intention to
extend the usual c3urtesies. which had
never been refused. to the memory Of
Sepater Carpenter Ga vote By teIlers
his motion was defeated, ITO TO IL.
Mr.. Springer submitted proposition
that the subject should be post ponsd until
tomorrow; that the Republicans should
be allowed two hours for debate and then
a vote should be taken ca tbs bill and
amendments,
Mr. Couger suggested that the subjsot
would come DIP to morrow as un6nishe ed
buFiness, and declining to agree 10 the
proposition.
a lively controversy arose between Mr..
Conger and the Speaker as to whether the
main question had been ordered
ou the bill. The Speaker maintain c i
that ID had. and MIR. Congsr ap
pesling to the Record 20 prove the cor
trary. Before acy deeision had been
reached upon this poins vote was taksn
on the motion to dispense with further
proceedings under the call and i. was de-
feated, yeas 12l, nays l35.
The House then rslspsed into its forme +
condition of idleness, various propositions
bsing submitted and rejected
At $50 Mr.. Williams Of Wisconsin
arose, amidst shouts of Regular order
from tho Democratic side. anI asked for
leave of absence from TO nights session.
He had hoped the ordinary resolutions ct
respect to the dead Senator fro3l Wiscot-
sin would have been adopted, but he made
10 complaint, aud he would not call the
resolutions up until the next regular
session. His leave OF absence was grant
ed
There was another roll call aad then for
about an hour tbs N en- bers gathered la
groups in tae area and aisles consulting
and cndaaToriug 10 came 10 an agreement
as to the number of RepFssenta;ives to be
in the bill Divisions OF the figures of the
state OF population By the various figures
proposed from 30l 30 322. were made,
SO as to ascertain whether the fraction
left ever would be largu enough to entitle
a state to an additional member, because
that seemed to be the special advantage
after which all were st,iv'.t. but is was ali
in vain. The resulting fractions would Eot
CINE out 30 as to give gn advantage e.
every state and consequently the:magicsI
figure remained undiscovered.
Att o'clock Dir. Weaver suga assted that
vote BE takop on 3l9, but he would not
premise vote should then be taken On
another figure. He then proposed that
votes should be taken on 322. 3l9, 3l2 and

clerk proceeded to call on motion to ad-
journ. which was defeated. At about 8
o clock q proposition was submitted by Mr
Robson to the effect that the roll be cali
ed and thas each member announce h q
fayoTite nun Der. SO as 10 shew the senti-
meDt of thhe house.
Mr.. Cox aeceded to this proposition on
condition that the number receiving the
largest number OF votes should be consjd
cred the choice Of the House. Derisive
laughter from the Republicans followed,
and the confusion in all parts of the cham
Der was so great that the services of the
Sergeant st Arms, with his symbol ct
office, were called into requisition, and it
was some timo before order was restored
Mr.. Cox then agreed to DIR. Robeson' 8
proposal to take an informal ballot. each
memuer to announce the basis OF the
representation he favored.
Mr. Couger. however, objected to the
agreement. Let the gentleman from New
York withdraw bis demand for the
previous question.
The Speaksr-Tne gentleman has no
power to do that. It has been ordered.
Mr.. Cenger-W hen the chair says that
IN proper erder | will appeal from it.
The Speaker said tho appeal came too
late.
Mr. Coussr-The chair has jast decided
for the first time.
The Speaker decided as the
time the main question was ordered,
MIR. CoDger-I advise the chair that
the time will come when an appeal will be
be taken on that decision.
Mr., Page appealed to MIR. Caneer to
allow an informal ballot to be taken. He
could see no reason for objection.
Mr. Conger could see a very good reason
Why the House should not determine
anything with its doors barred. and insist
ed upon his objection.
At a. N. the House was still in ses
sion and no action had bean taken on the
pending motions
An all night session is now probable
The usual amusing scenes occurred when
some members escaped from the room in
spite Of the vigilance of the Ssrssant-at-
arms, and were arrested and brought
back.
