After a lapse of some further time— Mr. Brown came up from the Council Cham- ber, and reported that there was no probability that the bill wonld be dis: of to-night, as the fower Board bad pronounced the amendments of the Board of Aldermen to be ungramuiati_al and unintelligtble. The Board accordingly adjourned. Common Counril.—Tue Mayor's communis a” tiou, transmitting the bank a-count of the Cor- poration, was laid on the table to await the ap- peintment of the committees.

Scnoor Examinations —We give below, re- Ports of the examinations of the male Primary schools of three districts, being all that took Place yesterday : The Male Primary school of the Third district, is situated on FE street, between Fifth and Sixth streets east, Tr Yard.) The location ix an excellent one, affording plenty of room and air, and the house Ix spacious and in tolerably yood order. A little brighten- ing up of the walls and ceiling, and a small smount of paint appli-d to the windows and doors would contribute greatly to the appearance of the room. In all other respects, however, the room has a clean and tidy appearance ; and the teacher, Miss Mott, evidently = place to put wed thing,” and a facility of “ keeping everything in its proper place.’’ The school, consequently, wore an orderly and subdued air, which was sufii- cient to convince us tbat there was one ruling spirit within, who maintained control in the man- ner best calculated to advance the interest of those committed to her care. The school enrolls sixty scholars, of whom fifty-seven were present. Their appearance, like that of the schoo! room, was neat, tidy and or- deriy ; and every face wore marks of yood humor and content. Their manner during the examina- tion, too, was especially worthy of remark. With very few exceptions, they answered the questions Promptly and clearly, without any peitness or shyness, and it seems thal Miss Mott has a fac- ulty of inspiring thein with self-reliance and re- spect for those older than themselves. They are divided into tive classes, whose re- spective studies are as follows : First Class — Spelling, reading, geography, arithmetic, history, writing, grammar. Second class — speliing, reading, geography, writing, arithmetic. Third class—spelling, reading, zeoy- raphy, writing, arithmetic. Fourth class—spell- we Treading, exercises on the slate, arithmetic Fifth class—spelling, reading, arithmetic. cises on the slate otals in spelling 60; read- ing, 56; geography, 2s ; arithmetic, 56; history, 12; grammar, 7. ‘The examination was conducted by Mr. Fred- erick Whyte and Dr. J. FE. Willetts, of the sub- committee of the ‘Trustees of the Fourth district, and participated in by Mr. NcCatlacan and Misses Moore and Choate, teachers of other schools. ‘Throughout the entire examination the auswersevinced a familiarity with the several studies highly creditabie to both teachers and olars, and gratifying to the committee and visitors. Their examples of hand-writing were expecially good, considering the aye of the wri- ters; and we have seldom visited 4 school where an equal degree of proticiency in this stady was so general. Among those exhibited to us, were some exercises on the slate by Masters Peake, Jacobs, Cook, and Mafski, the letters of which were clearly defined, well-shaped, and regula’, and fluently written, One feature of this school, which we must not omit to mention, is the sing- ing class. ‘This was led by Mr. Wim. A. Love- lace, who has quite a large number of scholars uader his tuition; and the study is entirely di: tinct from the regular course of studies taught in the school. Mr. L. teaches on a system of hi own, by which the elementary knowledge more palpably impressed, and yet divested of the tediousness of most other systems. The class sang several pieces with great taste and accuracy of expression and time Male Primary School of the Fourth District Mr. Augustus Edson, teacher, is located in Islan fall, on Virginia avenue, near Sixth street. It has 60 scholars enrolled, all of whom were prese ent. The examination yesterday was conducted by the sub-committee of the Ti ustees of the Thiid District, consisting of Col. Randolph, Mr. Van Santvoord, and Dr. [ronsides. Mr. Thompson, a former teacher, und several ladies were visitors. The schoolroom is small, but well ventilated and # very eligible place, except that having formerly been used for a store, it still bears the marks of that peculiarly, and the walls, ceiling, windows and doors necd whitewash, paint, &e. We speak of these things because we believe there is nothing that tends move to impress the minds of children witb a love of neatness and cleanliness in their persons, and a corresponding elevation of moral feelius and self-re pect, thin tidiness in their surroundings, whether iu the schoolroom or at home. With this belief before us, we cannot but regret that all the schoolrooms in the city, and particularly those for sm: dren, gre not thoroughly neat and cle: and out. We oply Temained in this» short Gime, durios which two classes of smaller boys were examined in orthography. They bad hot yet recovered from the constraint which will always affect school children when strangers are in the room, and especially whea the questions are put to them by strangers in somewhat unac- customed form, accent and expression. They did not, therefore, spell as well as they would have done, uo doubt, on ordinary occasion, and in some instances missed simple words because they were unable to concentrate their thoughts on the task assigned them. As they progressed they were gradually overcoming this embatrass- ment, and as we left early, we will allow an- other who remaiyed during the afternoon to speak for us of the merits or demerits of this school, as follows: The occasion cailed together many visitors— among whom we noticed Mrs. Skidmore and Mr. Thompson of the corps of teacters. ‘This school, like most of the public schools, has disadvan- tages in its situation, and in its want of accor modation. Sixty boys are crowded into a narre roem, ona Dole and ich frequented street, and exposed to all the heat and dust “that’s going.” ‘The examination of Mr. Edson’s school gave good satisfaction. Tue boys bad many fair scholars among them, and the classification of the school was judicious. Their teacher has their love and contidence, and is thus able to re- (Ase What appeared to be a noisy (but not rebel- lous) disposition. Atlowances should, however, be made for the disadvantageous loration. The examiners were well pleased with the attendance of the scholars at the examination Every boy in bis place. Some of the boys evince a L mbameripeoa in reading and in mental metic, and they all sang well. The examination of the Male Primary School of the second district, (sitwated in the basement of the Chureh of the Ascension, on H st, betwen Ninthand Tenth st« ) by Messrs. Walsh, Pri and Bracd ,‘rastees of thethid district, yesterday afternoon, afforded one of the mont “ratifying evidences of the advancement of our schools and the merits of the system of education therein, we bave witnessed. The exercises com- menced at 3 o'clock, and were not concluded until after 6 They consisted of reading, spell- jag, writing from dictation, arithmetic and geog- raphy; and im all of them the scholars made excellent xamjigatious. The clasxes jn arithme. tic, both mental and written, were examined by Mr S.J. Thompson, and the ready responses iven to the various questions, surprised or grat- fied all who were present. Great care and at- tention bad also been bestowed upon the pupils in teaching them to write—many of the children writing almost the ease and boldness of experts Great praise is due to the accomplished teacher of this *chool, Miss Ogden, for the manner in which she has educated these children, and for her devotion to her duties. Her pupils have great reason to congratulate themselves that they are placed under the charge of a lady whose en- ergy, talents and long experience asa teacher, enables her to train them so well. The exercises were varied. py vocal music, and at their conclu- clusion. the school sang ‘ The Star Span sled Banner” Mr. Brandt then addressed the school on behalf of the trastees, complimented the schoiars upon their progress during the last year, and urged them not to forget, in vacation, the lessons of the xchool-room, but to re-commence in aatumn their good work with redoubled dili- gence. ‘There are 51 pupils attached to this school, aad only two were absent. In common with the trustees. we were pleased to see, on this Occasion, amucb larger number of visitors than had yet attended the examinations, and are glad to ob- serve the interest manifested by all who we e present, the major portion of whom were ladies. Among the visitors present at this examination was Mr. A Hyde, guardian of the public schoo!s of Georgetown, and four ont of the five teachers lo charce of the schools of that town, besides a namber of the pupils. These things show a very dable zeal in the great xnbject of public nu on the part of those charged with these Interests among our neighbors. ari Peren Haraison —The Justice before whom Peter Harrison was arraigned on Saturday last for firing shots in the street, sends ux the follow- ing explanation of the ease, which, differing somewhat from the Star's report of it, we, of course, give Mr. Harrison the benefit of its ta- sertion in our local columns : “Mr. Peter Harrison requests me to make a statement relative to the fines im ed on him for violations of she Corporation ordinances on Saturday, the Ith instant. “He was ariested by 8. T. Watson, police of- ticer, and was fined, upon the oath of Dennis Collins, who charged him with firing a fg" in the public streets, and having a pistol In bis band subsequently to fring the gun, and with cursing and swearing in the streets. “Us dae to Mr. Harrison to state that he was arrested in Lis own house and not in the streets and when under examination admitted he fired the yuo, but denied the other charges. The e Was no pistol fvund on him, consequently there was no fo feiture of the weapon. “Tuesday, June 22, 1558 ° DeraRtTInc —An omnibus loaded down with Indians, in their Loliday paint, their spears, pipes, shields, scalp«. feathers, and the rest of their pecutiar ‘baggage, passed the Star office Yesterday afternoon, cn the way to the depot They were a delegation departing for their home in the Par West. They sang merrily, and Whooped an amazing farewell to the Federal Metropolis es they rumbled along over the paving stones. A Lance Fuxerat.—Yesterday afternoon, the rematas of the late Isauc Stoddard were followed to their last rexting-place, in the Congressional Cemeterr, from hs \ecent place of residence, comer of Four-and-a-half and E streets, by a very large concourse of relatives and friends A tribe of the O.der of Red Men also accompanied the procession. A Lano® anv Pieasant Excursion —The excursion yesterday of the Young Catholics’ Friend Society, was Probably one of the most nu- merous of that has lace from thin city this sees? The number is 0 large that the steamer Mount Vernon, which had been chartered for the occasion, was unable to carry all who were awaiting passage at the foot of Sixth street, at eight o'clck, a. m , and hence the managers were under the agreeable necessity of chartering another boat, the whatan, to take part of the passengers from that int, and those waiti; it the Navy- Yard and at Alexandria. She had, » avery fullcomplimenton board. The Mount Vernon made another trip at one o’clock, and earried down a full load from the Sixth street wharf, while numbers, who expected her to stop at the Navy-Yard, were disappointed. On returning, the excursionists who came by the first boat, got back about nine o'clock, p.m. and the others at alater hour. The point visited by the excursionists, was Glymount Pavilion, a most beautiful retreat on the Maryland side of the Potomac, about thirty mile: jow the city, where they enjoyed themselves by strolls through the beautiful groves, sitting in the shade, and in dancing, music, swinging, feasting, &e , accord- ing to their several incliuations. Tus Flower QueEen.—Notwithstanding the heat of the weather the children of the Public Schools found a large audience at the Ascembly Rooms last evening, to greet their third appear- ance in the oratorio of the Flower (jueen. The beautiful floral concert and spectacle,which hes been heretofore described in the Star, was fully up to the high standard of its previous pre- sentations, and elicited frequent and enthusiastic dla At its conclusion, each of the queens of the former occasions were re-crowned, and a delighted audience retired. Professor Daniel's success in this oratorio opens an extensive field for bis talents and the improvement of the musi- cal taste of the public schools, as well as a source of innocent and wholesome gratification to the citizens of Washington. We trust the success of the Flower Queen will be followed up by new triumphs in other pieces. Tre Orera —Notwithstanding the heat of the weather, the breaking of fiddle strings in the or- chestra, and various other annoyances—not to ntion that greatest of all annoyances, empty benches—M iss Milner sang through a programme of unusual length, with her accustomed sweet- nexs and good grace. The first and second acts of “ Lucia di Lammermoor’ and the second and third acts of the “ Bohemian Girl’? were per- formed in very zood style. ‘Those present had an opportunity to see Rudolphsen in his best part— that of Deviishoof, in the Bohemian Girl; in which character he is superb. Miss Milnes, ax Lucia and Arline, won new honors, and gave ad ditional evidence of her powers as an artist. Mr Guilmette, In several songs, won the applause of the audience. To-night is positively the last of the operatic season. Let there be one good house, to cheer the company on their departure from’ the city, after so unprofitable a season as this has been. Rowpyism.—A gang of half grown youths are in the habit of assembling nightly on the south- east corner of D and ‘Thirteenth-and-a-half sts., who indulge by the hour in oaths, imprecations, and villanously blackguard conversations so loudly as to annoy respe-table females forced to pass the point, as well as families residing in the neighborhood. A entleman, who, to keep their revolting words from the ears of his chil- dren is forced to keep his windows closed even at this season, and to deny them the privilege of sitting at his door, appeals to us to aid in the abatement of this shameless nuisance. We ac- cordingly thus notify the police of the necessity for their presence in that quarter. . Caiminat Corrt —The Court met this morn- ing at the ustal hour. On motion of Mr. Rate! Josiah F. Polk, Esq., was admitted to practice at the Criminal Courts of the District of Columbia Several cases were assigned for trial to-day, but for various reasons were postponed. In sev- eral cases the recoynizances were forfeited, and one case Was submitted—a ease of assault aad battery; so the jury bad nothing to do. The yrand jury, however, were in session, and the court was waiting for them when our report closed. Centre Marxet.—This morning the market opened with an average attendance of dealers, who offered an excellent supply of provisions in the various departments. The gangways were crowded at an early hour; the demand was lively and sales were brisk until tue heat of mid day began to disperse the assemblage and detract from the appearance of the stock on hand. The prices throughout were as on Saturday last. The rules of the market were strictly enforced, and good o.der prevailed. Watca Returns —James Adams, col’d, Md , firing a pistol; workhouse 9 days.
