‘Tus River.—The channel above the Long Bridge is clear of lumber vessels this morning for the first time since last spring. The lumber season begins to close up. Mr. Wm. Leach, k of the Southern draw, shot this morning the first ducks of the season— one Widgeon two Blue Wings. They were very fine ‘imens, indeed. Last night was intensely dark on the river, xo much so that the mail steamer Powhatan found reat difficulty in keeping the chaunel, and ob- fo could not be distinguished at any distance from the steamer’s bows. This morning, on the arrival of the Powhatan (4a.m_) at her wharf, several accidents occurred to carriages in conse- quence of their being no lamps to warn the dri- vers from the dangerous obstructions about the wharf, and several drivers of hack: carriages determined not to attend the place for {he purpose of conveying passengers without extra charge for such service. Vs Yesterday quite a fleet of schooners went down LOCAL INTELLIGENCE. Tax Founpation oF tux Pustic ScHooLs.— In Saturday’s Star we gave the first day's pro- ceedings of the original Board of Trustees of the Public Schools of Washington appointed under the act of the City Councils establishing the system. This act is as follows: AN Act to establish and endow it pple institetion for the education of youth fn the City of Washington. Impressed with u sense of the inseparable connection between the education of outh and the prevalence of pure morals; with he duty of all commanities to place within the reach of the poor as well as the rich, the inesti- mable blessings of knowledge; and with the high necessity of establishing at the seat of the gene- eral government — seminaries of learning, the City Councils of Washington do pass the fol- ing t Sect Eng Be it enacted by the First and Sec- g ity © 1 of Washing: | the river to lighten the guano ship, Thayer.

She has eaves, 3,000, if not 3,300 tons of the Precious fertilizer in ber hold. The packet ship Statesman, e's line, is out from New York two weeks now, and nothing has been heard from her; some anxiety is felt as to her safety, and it is feared that she may have en- countered the late storm and been driven out at seu. The packet schooner Sylvanus Allen sailed on or about the 10th instant from Boston, bound to the three cities. with a valuable cargo, part of which consisted of paper for the Government. She bas not yet been reported, and there js no ti- dings of her in the lower tiver. This morning a beautiful large bald-headed eagie was sailing about in the neighborhood of the Long Bridge, but he took good care to keep atasafe distance from the long guns that were leveled at him from various poiuts. P. S. Since writing the above we learn that the Statesman bas arrivi t Alexandria. under ihe direction of a Board of thirteen Trus- tees; whereof seven shall be annually chosen by the joint ballots of the Council from among the residents of the city; and six be annually chosen by individuais, contributing to the promotion of schools. as hereinafter provided.

They sball have power to | ape all ne- cessary by-laws, not inconsistent with this act; to receive donations, and to vest and apply the funds placed under their care in such manuer as they May see Gt. They shall make an adequate provision and pay at such rates as they may deem reasonable and proper, for the education of chil- dren residing in the city, whose parents or guar- | dians are unable to defiay the expenses of their edueation; they shall keep a journal of their pro- ceedings; and shall. on the second Monday of June in each year, make a fall report to the Coun- cil, excepting the names of those children who hall receive education without any charge being made therefor.

A Vittainovs Degp —Last night between 9 and 10 o'clock, a most outrageous and cowardly assanit was made upon an inoffensive colored man who was watking with his wife. Charles Lee, a well known, sober, and indus- trious negro wus returning to the Island from the city, with bis wife, who {s at service in the city; and whom it is his custom to accompany to bis home every night from her place of service. Just as they arrived at the 44 street canal bridge they were met by three men, one of whom, a small man, drew a revolver and without one word of warning thrust it close to the poor fellow’s face, and discharged it, the ball taking effect in the é April, July and October, respectively; | right cheek, tearin away a portion of the flesh the drst quarterly payment to be made on the first | and ladglac ia tha saa mene ihe jugular vein.

For Court —Joshua [.loyd was arrested this morning at the Railroad Depot by Police Officer McHenry, for an assault and battery on Marion Fenwick, Michael Finnegan, and —— Steele.
