Mr. Rhees presented a communication from 25 texchers asking the board to reconsider the ‘yote Ly which the new ruies debar the schools trom the usual week's vacation at Christmas. The petinoners con= = cial to both teachers and scholars, giving them ap eppertanity to reernit their strength.

It was impro- | per that they should censure tie Board, and in. judicius to ask them to reconsider their ac- tien. eT the ya. n+ ben r.. Wight understood that the rules wonld come up again. He was under the impression that the special meeting was merely for consul- tation, and not for definite action. He would second ihe motion to lay on the table, but for a | different reason. He wished it brought up at the proper time. s Mr. Holmead thought it proper for the teach- @rs to petition the Board on any subject which efiects tham. He was'in favor of the Christmas d would vole tor jt. ir did not understand taken at the special meeting to be fina’. Mr. Ellis moved @reconfideration of the vote by which the rules were ted; earried. Mr. Ellis then moved to amend them so as to give the usual week's vacation at Christunas. Mr. Morseil was opposed to the change. We had ioo many holidays now, and especially War he opposed to having them about Chrisie was. It was a noisy time, and the children weuld be Letter off in the schoois. Mr. Wizht was in favor of adhering to the old weage, which was deeply rooted with the People cf this section. It had been kept asa week tor visiting, sport, &c..and he did not think any ¢ood would arise frum the change. If the scools were opened during the week but jew chiidien would attend. The teachers ex- pr cted the ir usnal week of relaxation also. Mr. lihees advo ated the holiday, especially for the t achrr, and thousht that the board should carefuily consider their petition. _ Mr. Milter was not much in favor of holi- ays, but was in favor of the children keeping the time-honored holiday at Christmas. Mr. Utermehie said some of the teachers were iaboring under wrongimpressions. One teach- er Lad said that the motive which influenced tie leard was a “Yankee movement.” An- otber said it was & “nerthern movement.” He did not affiliate with the Yankees, but was in favor o: the movement _ He had been to school | from +arly morn to starlight, and did not have bolidsy on >aturdays. Since he had leftschool. er members of the board, he worked ir- | respective of hours. Mr. Rhees.—The difference is we get paid for our work and the boys don’t. Utermehle continued, saving that the ‘'s were better paid here than they were in other parts of the country. Mr. Holmead believed the public were op- Eto the movement.

The same process of | creation which prevailed in past age« prevails now, 18 has been demonstrated by recentexper- iments in the bed of the ocean. The antiquity of man constitutes a most in- teresting study, and all people, whether rude | or cultivated, exhibit their conceptions of what th: y suppose the primary existence of man. While the Bible should be adhered to in the study of man, yet men of science should not be tied dow n to modern interpretation of the Serip- tures. . The speaker noticed the fact that we are too apt te limit the date of definite antiquity to the time of Romans. This was one of the er- rors of & purely Classical education. Prior to the h'story of the Romans, the history of man may be said to bo all unwritten, and it is to that which the lecturer called attention. The mod- ermness of Roman history should be impressed on every mind, and it must also be remembered that when Cesar landed in Britain, that time had just commenced which St. Pgul designated “these last days.” The study of Roman aati- quities cannot fally conimand the mind, be- canse archieology js notso much depended on try and matory. } he lecturer then referréd to thegliscoveries tnade in Scandinavia, which was in a measure a “virgin soil,” because Rome had never oxite Ge Ber conquests thus far, and all that Was found was purely an evidence of au eariy existence of man. Dae period when men worked only in stone, and without the use and knowl- edge of metal=, might bé designated the stone period. Then followed the bronze period, when a kuowledge of working in tin and copper was developed, as re’ sull found in numerous countries show. “ween these periods the copper period which is developed in thi: country, which is also in a measure “virgin, because it had never been trod by the feet of the Greeks and Romans. All these relics, found in graves, tumuli and mounds, the evi- dences of skill in workmanship, and in coun- tries remote from the most ancient civilized nations, show;the existencé.of man long before the date of any written history. Among the proofs mentioned wus that ef the discover in20, at ihe foot of the Grampian Hills, i land, of the skeleton of a whale long, and twenty miles from the st tidal | flow. All writfen history proves that but little change has been made in the position of these hills and the tide, and as it would have been impossible to carry a whale eighty feet long a distance of twenty miles, it is evident that the there slain long, long ages ago, whe: ulers of the sea layed the base of the Grampian Hills. Long, too, before the time of the Romans, for a Roman road runs over the very fleld on which this skeleton was found. That man was there is evident, for 2 rude stone harpoon, with which the-amonster side, Wherever even the rudest implements | are found there is an evidence of reason: for unressoning beings neyer make improvement®. _The second lecture of the course will be given on Friday evening next. Lee Frex Cororep RESIDENTR oF WasnincTox. The free colored people of this city have 2 so. ciety called the “Social, Civil and Statistical Association,” and at a late meeting, held in the Fifteenth-street Presbyterian Church, they adopted the following resolutions, which offered by Mr. Syphax. A large n umber of these people haye by propriety of conduct and hon- est characters obtained the general estecin and kod will of all our respectable white citizens Whereas the practice has become genera? for mock lecturers and political agitators to repair to this city for no other purpose than the con- sideration of speculative and individual mo- tives, the furtherance of which ean Hut annihi- late every element of, unity, peace and that friendship which should, if Possible, be the characteristics of our fellow-citizens; and whereus whilst we are ready and willing at all mets to ane a ee full diffusion of ed- hieation, including all its elementary ps : Therefore be it . Mon Resolved, That we recommend to our people of this city such considerations the adoption of which will serve to exclude these ignoble impostors who are trying to infuse in our midst unprofitable and fruitful elements of disc ly rather than the encouragement of such prin- ciples and protessions by which we may be benefitted, and at the same time effect that friendship and good feeling towards our fellow- men among whom we are situated. Kesolved, further, That we shall at all times be prepared, through a select committer of our own membership, to tender a cordial and respectful invitation to such orators and teachers in the cause of religion, morality, literature and science, as may be disposed to benefit us by their kind and generous service; and that we commend the observance of this rule to all other organizations of our people, a8 members of the genera? community, and as essential to our permanent welfare. . ———_—___ FUNERAL or Gey.
