Trvstexs op Pustic ScnooLs.—The regplar meeting of the Board was held yester- day et the City Hall. Present—Cel. President of the Board ; Ro. Ricketts, and Messrs. Van Santvoord, Whyte, alsb, Wilson, Price, Lawrenson, Willett. ‘The Board came to order, and the minutes of the last meeting were read and 2 Mr. Price the advisability, with a view to greater economy, of having the fuel con- sumed by the several schools furnished by con- tract ; and after some discussion it was agreed by the Board, that the sub-boards of the several @istiiets be authorized to solicit terms from va- tious dealers in wood and cval for providing fuel for the schools by contract—the coal and Wood to be delivered at the different school and put away in the places prepared for the same, at such times, and in such quagtities, as may be regaired by the different sub-boards The Chair ited the application of Miss Sarab Barnhouse for a teacbersbip in the Public Sebools, which was referred to the committee on examinations. Mr. Wilson submitted to the Board a cata- logue and specimens of school books, presented by the agent of the publishers, Messrs. E. H Batler & Co., which were referred to the com- mittee on books. On motion of Dr. Ironside, it was agreed that when the Board adjourn, it adjourn to mect on the 25tb instant. Mr. Brandi submitted the annual report of the Board for the past year; which, on motion, was Tread This report embraces a detailed history of the operations of the Board during the past scholas- te year. fo opening, it annouuces that no change of system was adopted in any of the schoois dur- ing the year, and speaks satisfactorily of the course of the teachers, and of the success which bad attended their labors. Afler detailing the namber of schools and the number of the teach- ers, as well as the number of pupils who were In the schools at the commencement of the yeur, together with those admitted during the year, it goes on to speak in terins of ae regret of the decease, in June last, of one the Assistant ‘Teachers of the Third District, a graduate of the Public Sebools, who rare gifts, emi- nently qualifying her f aapromreinankah. yor high position in her profession U pou the subject of the annual examinations the report sa “The trustees are convinced, from the results of these examiuations, that great care, attention and zeal have been bestowed upon the pupils, and are fully confirmed in their pre- vious opinion of the fidelity and etticiency of the teachers. Laboring under many disadvantages, arising from the want of proper school accomme- dations, &c_, they bave in every instance executed the difficult tasks assigned them, with great suc- cess, and they richly ave the thank« and cor- dial support of the entire community.”’ Then follows a brief but highly flattering re- port of the examination of each of the several schools tn the four districts, in which the pupils all receive most gratifying encomiums for their rapid and thorough advancement in thelr studies je summary of the report expresses the bigh Satisfaction of the committee with the efficiency of the present system of education; and, after ad- mittiug that the interests of the schools would be greatly advanced by the appointment of a general superintendent, as recommended to the City Councils by former boards, refrains from urg' this additional expenditure in the present condi- tion of the Corporation’s finances. ‘ Moreover,’’ it continaes, ** the aid ef the General Government has already been solicited in the most earnest manner, and with partial success, inasmuch as a bill for the support of the public schools of the city of Washington the Senate at the last session of Congress, and there is every reason to hope for its flual success.’’ Teport then goes on to respectfully call the attention of the City Councils te this matter, and asks their careful examination of a memorial whieh was presented to Congress last winter, setting forth a state of facts which were discov- ered by actual jnvestigetion, the consideration of Which, as regards the stated fact that thousands of children in this city aie not provided with any means of education in the schools, presents a sad foreshadowing of ignorance and consequent crime and infamy which will be brought on this city as these young children grow into manhood, unless a belping band is stretehed out over them, and their minds be reclaimed by the intluence of aw school education. The simple fact, stated in this memorial, that our pubtic schools cannot accommodate twenty-five per cent. of the number of children of the city, is the most urgent appeal for help in the establish- meat of more extended school accommodations that could be made by any other force of reason- ing whatever committee do not think it advisable to add to the revenue of the scboo's by lucreaxing the present tax upon the citizens, and they admit (hat they cam see no way to overcome the ditti- culties and embarrassments by which they are surround-d, except by perseverence in the effort to obtain from Congress the aid recommended in the Senate’s bill of the Last session. In order to convince the Councils of the city of the truth of their statements about the serious want of fit school rooms for tbe pupils, the com- mittee respectfully suggest that ¢ Boards of Aldermen and Common Couucilmen, with the Boaid of Trustees, visit the several sc hool- houses iw each district, with a view to a more thorough knowledge of their condition and necessities in this respect. Upon the subject of vecal music in the several Schools the report says: ** During the several ex- aminations the monotony of the exercises was relieved by vocal music Although this is not recognized by the Board to be so far a legitimate part of the education of the children of the coni- mon schools as to be embraced in their estimate for the yearly appropriations, nevertheless it Las been permitted sud encouraged, and many of the children bave availed themselves of its benefits. voluntarily contributing lo defray the expense of atescher There can be uo doubt of its bene- Belial effect upow the children, both physically and mentally, and the Hoard simpiy decline eni- bodying it as a permanent element of the system for the reason that they dre without the meaus of properly teaching it ” After a detatied account of the distribution of premiums and medals made at the close of the aunual examinations, and the usual acknowle dy- ments to the citizens, the press, the City Coancils, the report closes. Oa motion of Mr. Price, the report was unani- meusly adupted. And the Board adjourned. A Sanitary Measure —Monday evening, in the Board of Aldermen, Mr. Dunnington, from the Committee on Canals, introduced a resolu- tien which we quote betow. It was passed with- outa dissenting voice in the Board **Resolecd, That the Mayor be, and be is here- by requested to furnish thix Board with an esti- mate of the cost of erecting tide-locks at the points where the water from the Potomac and Anacostia rivers Huw into the canal, and that he else report to this Board what other plans or measares ja bis opinion should be adopted to prevent the canal from becomi source of dix- ease from the sluggishness of the current and the accumulation of Sith in its bed. ® ‘The amount of benefit which would result to the city by the erection of tide-iocks at the dif- ferent termini of the city canal, would be iucal- eulable, and the proper pian for ridding the place of the stench of stagnant water, decaying vegetable matter, and the numerous other dis- ease creating deposites which daily and hourly send forth their deadly in tluences over the streets and avenues, and intu the Louses of the citizens of a ia portion of the city, is evidently and clearly pointed ont by the above resolution Supposing the locks to be placed at the points indwaird, by opening and sbatting them every twelve hours, fresh water from the river could be introduced into the cana them at low tide, all the # would be swept away, leaving its bed d the lth, the yas tar, dead cats and dé water melon riuds, and ini nee infections bage whieh now find thei ar. way into the canal would be conveyed off to the river channel, and pass off out of harm’s way. ‘The accumulations of sand frow the city sewers, which nowcost the Corporation a round sum annually to remove, would also share the fate of the garbage, and, instead of producing an effluvia of noxious smelix and vapors, the canal would be a health- preserving institution and a blessing to the ple of Washington.

J. Glaney Jones, who arrived here on Monday last, and is the guest of Wm. Flinn, Esq., Navy Agent. Several popular airs were performed by the band, after which, in response to loud and rolo! calls for him, Mr. Jones on ie a and was introduced by Mr. Flinn, as follows : Gentlemen: I have the re to introduce to you the Hon. J. Glancy Jones, of Pennsylvania. As I know you have called to congratulate him upon bis nomination, and that, too, by acclama- tion, by a Demoeratic convention of bis native county “ old Berks,” let us all unite in sustain- ing & nomination that has so ably supported the ministration of President Buchanan. After which, in response to loud and numerous calls from the audience. Mr Jones addressed his enthusiastic friends, warmly acknowledging their courtesies in a brief speech, in which, after alluding to his recent re-nomination to Congress by the people of bis district, he said: We have no national issues at present pendi before the country; there are no questions thal are agitating the couatry now, of a national char- acter, upon which the people of the whole coun- are called to judgment, or such as it ight be sup the people of Washington would feel any deep interest in. In the year 1856, this country was convalsed from one end to the other with questions that did make eve man’s heart, whe loved bis country, throb wit! anxiety and fear But that has all away, and we are new in the midst of peace and pros- perity. Our country is ba BY. and united ; and although, in consequence of financial revulsions, we are saffering in some parts of the country, and to some extent perhay thoughout the whole of it, yet Providence has blessed us with plenty. Our country is at peace; the Union is loved and revered, and is more strongly cemented together now, perhaps, than it has ever been during any Period in our bistory. ‘The speaker went on to say that he regarded the compliment paid him by his friends and fel- low-citizens as directed to the old and noble county of Berks, which be had had the honor to Tepresent now for nearly eight years. He took the compliment for her, and accepted it as a token of the high regard for her fidelity in stand- ing by himself, and” sustaining the administra- tien of James Buchanan and the N. al De- moeracy. That old county had mPttering and newavering in ber fidelity to c@te of the Democracy for fifty-eight years, and from the days of Jrtlerson down to the present time, wi never failed in a single instance. Alludin; the course of the Administration during the late session of Congress, the gentleman said—« I felt it to be my duty to stand by the President.’ After goiny hastily over the history of his recent actions io his own district, and the endorsement of bis course in Congress by his constituents, be said: “ But I felt especially proud that that old county, which had never faltered in standing up for the principles of (he Democratic party for more than half a century, came forward to endorse my political coarse in sustaining the President of the United States in the patriotic measures whieh he had adopted to uphold the constitution and the Union.” After again thanking bis friends for the honor conferred upon him by the visit, the speaker bade the company geod night. ‘The band after- wards serenaded him, playing a number of beau- pular pieces, to the delight of the tiful sre ms many bandreds present. Tu Scuoor Tax Question —The Corpora. tion Attorney has given the Committee on Pub- lic Schools the following opinion relative to the authority of the Corporation Attorney to impose a specialtax for the support of the public schools: Grrice oF Corporation ATTorNey, oi Wastineton, Sept. 6, 1858 Sir: The question submitted’ to me by your committee ] understand to be, Whether over and above the existing taxation of three-quarters of one percent. upon the assessments of real and personal eke? it is competent for the Corpo- ration, if it shall be deemed expedient, tolay and collect a special tax, graduated upon suc’ je sessments, for the support of the public x I shall, of course, abstain from any re upon the expediency of the proposed measure, and confine myseif te the question of power un- der the charter. By the 7th section of the charter of 1820 it is provided that the Corporation ‘shall have full power and authority tolay and collect taxes upon the real and personal property within the said city; provided that no tax shall be laid upon real Property ata higher rate than three-quarters of one per centum on the assessment valuation thereof, except for the special purposes herein- after provided.”” Among the special purposes thereinafter pro- vided is the following: “The said Corporation shal! also have power and authority to provide for the establishment and superintendence of public schools, and to endow the same.”? Under the charter of 1920, therefore, it seems beyond question that there was power and au- thority to provide, by a special tax, over and above the three-quarters of one percentum, for the establishment, su, intendence, and endow- ment of public schools. ! the charter of Ist8 the charter of 1920 was continued in foree for the term of twenty years from the 17th of May, 1548, or uatil Congress, by law, determine other wise, with the alterations, additions, explanations. and amendments” set forth in the said dated ebarter Among these *alterations,’’ &c , isa grant of power *‘to lay and collect a school tax upon every free white male citizen of the aye of twen- ty-one years and upwards of one dollar per an- num. If the «nbject of taxation for the public schools were not again and otherwise referred to in this new charter, it might well be argued that the Poll-tax, boweyer manifestly inadequate, was the only special tax for their support which it contemplated. But, proceeding to enumerate certain special powers, that chaster expressly grants the power “to lay and collect tares for the support of public schools.” We Lave seen that thix special granted by the charter of 1220 over and above the power of general taxation tu the extent of three- quarters of one per centum on the assessment There was, therefore, no occasion for tts repe- tition Lere, except for the reasuu that a new pro- vision bad been made in favor of the public schools by avtborizing a poll tax; and none then, if the poll tax, or that tax aided by the ordinary general fund, were intended to be the sole means of establixhing, sapporting and endowing the public schools. It i» evident, therefore, that it was the Intention of Congress, notwitustanding the creation of the poll tax, to continue in the Corporation the powers granted by the charter of Js20, to lay and collect a further special tax for the support of the public schools over and above the yeueral taxation of three-quarters of one per centum on the assessment.
