Mr. Reed stated that this fund was or!glnnl'llv designed for charitable purruucn‘ and he consid- eed & no more thau rl{; it for the Deard to thus Ll‘lvurl. the money lnto this yery proper thannel, Mr. Amold ontertained similar viows, and boped the resolution would pusa.

Weleh moved to adopt the report. r. Prussing made a speech oppusing the sluption of the report. He considered that the proposed ¢hange wonld result in laziness, obatinacy, aud n spirit of upposition to the au- thorities, for no better renson than to satlsty thenotion of o vulgar mind; that pretenscs ¥ould easlly be fonnd to cloak the truo rensons fordroppngz studhes; that it would open the ¥ay to interfereuce from the Jesults, and result ‘na decadence of the educntional systcin of \Lis country and its republican institutions. Tlelaw of 1872 was now overning the Bonrd. Thislaw did not linnt the powers of the Board o Educatlon fu regard to the studles to be pur- taed, except §n g0 fur gs Doards of Directors or hards of Educatfon were proventad from ex- duding the seven studies named in the sectlons orpreseribed tor tho examination of teachurs. Tucitles of 100,000 fnbabitants the law did not ten enjoln the Board of Edueation from selecting theso studics, but gavo tho Boand unlimited power, In order to compel tbedlence, tho Board waa nuthorized to sus- WM'I or evon expel, o Duyll for gross dias- Sbedience or miscondtict, 'The repented refusal fo comply with the ruics of the Board in re- ganl to the studies vruscrlbnd, without an; Tasonable cause, might rightly be conslderd disobedience, and the Board would have wer to cxpu'l o child for refusing tostud, 0y of the Lranchies prescribed and considere bytho Bourd necessary to be learned.

Asfar as hie was concerned, he was fn favor of retaining music and drawing, and ho wished an agreed case could bo made up for ha Bupreme Cottrt to In- vestizate and decide upon, Tho olil statute gave the Board authority, according to the Bue preme Court, to expel & pupll for gross miscon- dnct. Whether it would sustain the Board In expelling a pupll for refusing to take a cortatn study was s question. Ml ENGLIBH vas not In favor of fiylng In the faco of the Su- preme Court’s declslon, The result of any sach opposition to the declsion would bo that tho l":F" and the Board would be fined. The Court id not decfde that the refusal of a child to take ncortain stuay was * willful disobedicnce or grosa ndsconduct,”” The Court .declded that the parents, nud not the Board, should decide Lhese clucmom concerning thelr children. No child shoulil bo placed in the position of refus- Ing to obey the wishes of its parcnts, : MR WELCH stood up for law. It the chitdren of Chlcago were taught nothing els nw{ should bo taught obedlence to the law, Therc had been too inuch deflance of law fn Chicsgo. It waa responsible for the loose state of inorals existing in this clty,—for the prevalence of crime, Let the Su- preme Court's declslon be carcled out. He did not think teachers would run tho risk of sus- pending o few hundred, or & fow thousand, pus plls for the suke of being fined. If, however, the decisfon did not apply, let the rules of the Board be followed up, and let people bring their suits, What sort of o lceson was it to giva puplls In obedience to Jaw for & man to stand up course, he _should und advise opposition to the declsion of the 8u-~ preme Court? Mr. l’ruaulnF must have found that tho shoo pinched, for, although Mr, Melch had not called any names, Mr, Prussing hastily arose and asked perinlsslon to mako n fow roimarks in an- swer to the personalitics of the gentleman, He could not obey tn 1logleal decislon, [mu:u- lnlrly when it was made under an obsolefe stat- ute. MR, ARNOLD sald he had tried to find some middle ground by which thoy could retain these studies and-yot not be In opposition to the declsjon of the Hu- remeo Court. 1le had hopes of eventunlly nding something of this nature, and moved to postpona further declsion until the next regular mceting, and maoking it the speclal order for b o'clock on that day. Mr. Reed tlmu;;fil they could harmonize by preseribing that a pupll should got drop a study during the term for which it Lind been taken up, He was In favor, however, of postponing further discusslon until the next regular mecting, when he thought Romething could be done. Mr, Arnold’s motion was then carried, and the Board pdjoutrned, WALTZING TO SANKEY'S TUNES, Tv the Fditor of The Tribune. Cuica6o, Dec, 9.—A llttle sermon might e preachied upon o little event which bappened at o largze reception fu this last week, The promi- nence given the event in tho dully press, nnd deservedly 8o, since It was onc of the most clegant and enjoyabld soclety affairs that have oceurred hero for a long time, rolloves ns from nny nccessity of particularizing tho locality.

No two lawyers would dif- fer upon it f called upon to apply it a8 judges, and to mo it appears as tho chief obstacle to Mr. Hayes' election, It is & clearly-catabllshed rule of law that a petson who holds color of offlee, which In most cases cunsists of a commis- slon or certificate of election, may do the dutles and cxercise the franchises of the office as though he were de jure the oficer, and that all his acts done under such color are valld and_ef- fectual ofliclal acts for the purposes for which they were done, and thelr valldity, after they ara accomplished, cannot b queationed in any proceeding.

And It Is not folly to sssume that the cffurts so successfully put forth by a'Toombs and Wigfall in 1860 may be equally as successful whon attetnpted by a Robingon or Livb fn 1877, 'Tho determ:nations of the latter gentlemen can be easily Inferred from the torrent of absurdities they belched forth under the gulse of patriotfsms: ono | It will be scen at once that asa matter of even golng so far 88 to offer wp | strict law, Cronin whe held color of offlce was his threo lll-tralned offspring at tho shrinc of | cntitled to vote, and Watts, his opponent, was martyrdom for the avenging Moloch, The thne has now arrived for loyul citizens to quit shiooting peas into the encmy's eamp.

Cnicaao, Dee, 18, —Your notice in Tae Trin- uNmof tho 12th fust. concerning the shrinkage of hogs nt the scales In the Unlon Btock-Yards is timely and to the point, so far as it goes, but it by no means covers the case. It is wrong In principle, It fnvolvesn uscless expense to the packers, it creates contention between buyers and sellers. If o purchase proves to be cheap, the seller contends that tho shrinkago fs un- reasonable and hie won't stand it. Ou the other hand, the buyer can instruct his fnspector to shirink —— out of them If they scem to be dear- ly bought.
