Public Schools.

From information We have received
from a trustworthy source, a policy has
been pursued by the directors Gin some
districts in the management Of our pub
lie schools which is not authorized by
law, and which subjects the directors to
at least criticSm--i. c in subdivision OF
school districts, and each director ma
king contracts singly with teachers
To illustrate \ says to b and to c,
you employ teacher for your end of
the district, and | will employ one for
my end, DC. Now, the law requires
the Board to meet, appoint one Of their
number clerk and treasurer, and that
they hold regular meetings and it re.
qulres IN agreement Of at least two OF
the Board to lcgalizc their action.
Another practice is INDUCED in which
is not right, to,wit: The directors
lodging the responsibility in the solcc-
ton Of teachers. To Illustrate They
send around the applicants with petit
ton to the patrons, to decide who snail
teach the school The law says that
the directors, and they alone are to en-
ploy teachers, and to dismiss them for
incompetcncy, improper conduct or IN
attention to duties.

81. @. DWIGHT. son Of q late mis-
siozary of Turkey, in letters descIip-
tive OF the habits, customs and instl-
tutions of the country, says the Turks
choose their wives not for their
intellectual development or cul-
ture, but for their beauty OF
face and form. The women
are great gossips, given to
much discussion OF jewels and articles
Of apparel, and scandal. Divorce is
equally the privilege OF the wife and
the husband. A Mo1ammedsn
woman told him that the condition
OF women in Turkey is preferable to
that OF their western sisters. 1--WE
are entitled to control our property, ="
she said. "When a man addresses
a woman in public he dares not raise
his eyes above her feet, and the mod
ern wife is content when her husband
is away from her, knowing that be
