The Board of Trustees of the Northwestern University held Its annual meeting In the chapel of the Unlversity, at Evanstou, yesterday motn- ing, commencing at D o’clock. Orrington Lunt acted as Chalrinan, The Committes on the Law Colleze reported that tho Institution was in a flonrishing con- dition. Its finances wero ako In & satisfactory atate, as the financlal policy had been a very sliuplo one. The recelpts wero first applied fo defraying the nocessary expenses of the schobl, such ns advertising, rent, ctc.; the surplus, if nny, belug divided amoug the Professors. It was not atated, howover, what sums these gen- tlemen received for thelr services under this arrangement. 5 Mr. 7. C. Hoag wanted to know whether o dotalled revort of the recelpts and expouscs of the past scar lad been prosented Lo the Com- mittee. The Unlversity Trustees inight resolve as muchas thoy chiose not toallow the Law Collegs to bo any expense to it still, if debts were fucurrod, the University was rasponsiblo for thom, Mr. Fruko raid that the detailed report of re- ceipts and expenditures would Do prescnted at the next weetinge of the Law Collegto Board. Judge Bradwell and Dr. N. 8. Davis com- mended the course of tho Law Committee, and, on motlon of the former, tha report was refer- ved to o committee conslsting of Grant Good- rleh, Judge Dradweil, and James Frake, Esq. Grant Qoodrich submitted resolutions of respect to the memory of the late Georgo F. Fuster, onn of the original charter-membiers of the Board, extolling Lis worth and Carfstian character, and mourniog his loss. By a rising vete the resolution was slopted. Dr. Ny 8. vis, un behalf of the Chicago Ma:leal Cotlege, niade & verbal report to the cllect thut the College was In a flouristing con- dition; that the receipts had been about $500 more than the expenditurcs. There hud been 153 sludents in attendance, ood forty-seven had been recommended for graduation {n ihe regu. lar course. ‘The ouly cbauge in the Faculty had been the reslgnation of Dr. Thomas Bond, o1 the Cha'r of Anatoiny, and?the sopojntment of Dr. R. L, Reato fili the vacancy, The re- port was necepted, When Dr. Duyis had concluded, Mrs, Jennlo F. Wiiling rafsed tuegold anestion of whether ornat the women students of the University should be permitted to enjoy the advantages of the edical College in common with the males, In answer to her inquiry, Dr. Davis seld that wlen the unfon of the inatitutions was ellected there were no. female students n the Unlversity, and' no prospect that there would be; consequently no thought was given to the question now brought up. The common education of men aud women in medicine and surizery could nut be succcssfully carricd on. ‘The general sentiment in Burope ‘and Amerlca regarding the matter was against co-education in medicing. Thero were objections to tho practice which could not be vvercome; their vatury iL was not necessacy to stote. Mrs, \Willine said that this explanation was ln"nflc‘;l)!], sud the subject was unanlimously ropped. T&m report of Prof, Oliver Marcy, Acting Prustdent of the Untvorsity, was then read. It stated thnt during the past year barmony bad prevajled in all departments, and ~ the cnds afned at had been attained to a degree en- tirely satlsfactory. Tho nutnber of studouts jn ' attendance durlng the year was 717, an {ncrease of eighty-two over 1877, but a decroase from the attendance fu 1870, In regard to the standard of scholarship, the report sald that the lack of Rrood proparatory schools {n this part of the country was a great impediment to the mainte-- nnuce of the gradu that was desired, and the re- enlt of many studceuts coming to the town without the nccessary preliminary education was disastrous buth to theineelves ind the Uni- vereity, a8 the oxtra cifort thoy mako to keep pice with tho clusscs while duflclent In somo studios conld but be a hindranco to their sue- cess, Thoe religious character of the Faculty lud been carofully preserved, it being the beliot of tho Prusldent that the moral differcnce be- tween thie influence of the fnstructivus of & man of deep rolltious coovictivns und thoscof a skeptival mau on tho lifs and character of students was inmcose, ‘The most inportunt part of the roport was thut which referred to the cducation of wom- ci. Tho Acting Presidont thought that admit- ting womcn us students the University was in too much haste to bo on the tide of progressive publlc oplufon. It was now evident thut public sentimeut was {o much confuston as to the Kind of cducatlon which most younz women would seck §t all tho fustructions of tho country were open to them, and they vomprehended tho character of the fustitutlon ivon in them, For t®0 Or threu yesrs youug women came to the University, thinking that thiey wanted a collego courae, but they hind little idca of the difference between a good collego and a seminary. ‘The result was that tho majority of femmale siudents did uot romain long 1u the institutton.

First Reception Under the Auspi- ces of the New Man- agement, * A Very Satisfactory Exhibition of the Pupils’ Proggess---Caba- nel’s * Phoedra.” The first reception of the Academy of Desfgn since Its organization was given last evening, ond must be regsrded as more of 8 soclal than an artistic success, The justice of this remark will bo apparent when it {8 consfdercd that the reception was deaignod solely to exhibit the progzress which had been made and the results achieved during tho past twvo or thires months, The most of the pupile were absolutely gullt- 1ess of having made any attetnpt with either pencil or brush previous to the beginning of the present year, It was to show the art- loving public of Lthis great citly’ that, under compefent management, it would be possthle to open an_art school which, even in the brief lillce of a few weeks, could ‘be 80 conductqd aa to call forth manifestatious of latent gemua which, when properly cultl. vated, would shed lustre on thelr slnn mater and justly demand for the school s public rec- ognition “of fts merits, In this respect last evenfoz’s exhibition was an uuequivocal sne- cesa. ‘The school work was cxhibited fo tho alcove at the eaet end of the gallery. The ex- mnples consisicd of drawings in cravons from ‘flata,” casts, and Nfe, ofl studies from still 1life and the costuined model, and water-color sketches from still lifoand flowera, Tho crayon drawings appeared to bo exccuted with the "nmum’"thernnnvlm!hcullnverynan{mz\lun! the * point.’ The philosophyof this methodlles in thotrufsin that wencral offects come bLefore particulars. Detail is stinply a matter of after consideration. Henco the students bczlnnlnr ta draw the humaun face divine cominenco with blocking out the wmaln forms in straight lines, indicating the general shadows by broad massca of nearly uuiform shades. Later they learn to round tho angular sha aud gradate tho shadows in detall. For this method the stump rescnuts decided ndvantages over the point, and n this particular, as well as in others, the spccimens cxhibited bore evident and favorable marks of the system of {ustruction. The most strikiog crayon-drawings werc the portralts from ~the” model,—sometimes in the of & J¥reoch peasant, times in a costume apparently of tiine of Queen Elizabeth. The best of theso wotthd do excellently well for fancy pletures for E"In"' aud Indeed " two or three have been ouglit for that purpose,—a clrcumatunce cn- couraging to scholurs aud teachers, Of the drawings from casts two carcful studies on white paper—one trom Michel Angelo's ¥ Pris- oner," the other from a fragment af the * Laoco- on'—wero the best, though not the only good ones. There were not many ofl pictures, but few of tho students having reached that ad- vanced brauch of art. A inost falthfully-ex: cuted study of an open Bible, valr of specta- cles, knitilng-work, tca-sct, etc, deserves especial mention, It Is the work of Miss lolmes, ove of the most prome Isiog of the Academy pupils. ‘Iho water- color work was conflned to une still-life group, viewed frotn different angles of vision. was vainted with a large brush upon coarse shects of paper, and worked fn the boldest possiblu style.

The younsg artist modeatly contessed that tho composition was original only a8 to coloring, and fu_ this there were unmistakablo evidences of tho froo use of the palletto-knife with good effect. 70 LEND XCLAT to tho recevllon. Mr. L. Z, Lelter kindly loaued Cabauol’s * Phodans and (Enone,) This work has for several months been the subject of much talk in art circles, and until Jast evenlng was only aeen in this country by a favored few. The story of thu picture is” told in Racine's tragedy of *Phedre,"” which §s founded on the mythologieal history of Theseus, King of Athens, 1o had taken Phedra as his sccond wife, bis first having been the Amazonian Antl- ope, by wham hie had » son, mpra) tus. ‘This son feft unider the displeasure of the godduss Venus because he neglected her dlvinity, and devoted himsclf ontirely to the service of Diana, and tho angry goddess avenged herself by fnsoiring Phedra with o vielent atfectlon for him. Btruggling in vain ngalnst this fatal attraction to ber stepson, and repelled by him, she followed the counsel of her favorito scrvant, (énone, and accused Hippolytus of a passion for ler, which so incensed Theseus that he called down the destructlon of Neptune upon lis son.

MORFE CHANGES ON TIIE C, 1l & Q. Bome excitement prevailed st the general officers of the Clicago, Burlington & Quincy Rallrosd yesterday owing to rumors that some further important changes mnonz the general oflicers of the rond were to be made in o day or two. Theso rumornwere caused by the sudden arrival In this vty of Mr. Georze Tyson, Gen- eral Auditor of the road at Boston, who, It ia clalmed, came hero with the mission Lo reorgan- 1ze the Treasurers’ and Auditors' departments of the road. Mr. Tyson was f{no con- eultation & great part of the day with Mr. C. E. Perkina, Vice-President and Genoral Manager, and Mr, J, L. Lathrop, late Auditor of the Hannibal & 8t, Joe Rallroad, was also with themn part of the time. It Is sald that Mr. Tysou will be made Treasurer of the rord §n place of Mr, A. T, Hall, and the head- uarters of this departwent will be removed to oston, Mr, A.T. Hall {s to remalu in this city o8 local Treasurer. Mr. J. L. Latbrop 1s men- tloned for thd position of Auditor and General Bupervisor_ ol Accounts, with headquarters In tlvs city, Mr. Bamuel Powell, General Ticket Agent, has been offered the positivn of Ticket Auditor, but he has not yet mado up lils mind whether to accept or not. From this it would rcein that a new man is Lo be appointed as Ueneral Ticket and Passenger Agent. For this position the name of Mr. E. A. Tonzelin, nt present Land Commissioner of the Burling- ton & Missourl River~Ralroad, Is mentioned. It {n elalwed, however, that Mr, Tonzelin does not want the nositlon. Yot ho may be prevallod upon by Mr, Perkivs, who has great confldence {1 bis abilitles, to accept. If he does, It I3 very Itkely that Mr, Arthur Gorham, late Assistant Land-Comminsloner of the Atcnison, ‘opeka & Banta ke allroad, will be Mr. Tunzelln’s suc- cessur. TIIE EAST-BOUND FREIGHT BUSI- NEBS, Mr. 1. B. Ledyard, encral Manager of the Michigan Central Rallroad, was in tho city yes- terdny, In reward to the fatlure of the General Manngers to re-enact the Enst-bound agreement at thelr meating (n Now York a week ago, Mr. Ledyard statea that the principal cause of the rupture was the Inabllity of the various lines to szrec upon a proper afvision of business. The Michigan Central during the past threo years had done about 35 per cent of tho East-bound frolght bustness. When the FEast-bonna sgreement was mado his road wss _ awarded by the ~ Commissloncrs but 83 per cent. Ie accepted ft under protest, ond, when the agreement expired, be naturally {nsisted on getting his proper percentave. Tho other roads, however, demnanded more than they were justly entitled to, and henco tho roport of the Conunitteo thot they could not agres upon a division. Mr. Ledsard does not think that tho diarup- tlon of tho rool will result in o rafiroad war, The vompetition had ‘been so active during the existence of tha agreoment that the rutes went down to bottom fleures, and the roads could ot afford tu mrr{ business for oiuch less than they bad done during the lust thres months. PARSENGER-RATFES RESTORED. The (icnoral Manngers of tho varlous roads leadlug East from this city were fn telegraphic comnmunication sll doy yesterday regarding the unsettlcd condition of passenger-rates to the Enst. They flually succeeded fn getting: the consent of all the roads, Including tho Grand Truuk and the Krlo & Chlcago line, to an agreement, that hercalter no more commissions shall be paia, and that the rates shall be main- tainod on the basts of 820 for limited tickels frotn Chicago to New York, ‘The tenernl Ticket nnd Passenger Agents will meet to<lay to tako action in accordance with the abovo arrangement, Whother this new agreoment will bo matutained or wob de- pends a great deal on the sction the roads southweat of this place take. Tho Xauenuer rates from thosy poluts hiave been and arc atill Delog et nore serfously than has been done from Chicago, If thess roads readjust their rates on the Chicago basls, all will ba well, and uolform rates inay prevall for s short timo at Jeast. But if these lines refuse to coms to terms, it {s useless for the Chicago roads to try to maintain ratcs, as thelr own fnterests would compel them to givo the people fo this section the same ndvantages as aro giveu them from othor poluts.
