Mr. Miller, from the committee on text books, reported in favor of the adoption of Hilliard’s Reader in place of those now in use, and their introduction into all the public schools of this city. ‘Riso, that the new edition of ‘‘Loesing’s His- tory of the United States” be substituted in the place of Quackenboss and the ‘First Lessons,” now in use. That “Lippincott’s Pronouncing Gazetteer of the World” be placed as a book of reference om the desks of the several grammar school teachers. ‘That «Mason’s Manual of Gymnastic Exer- cises” be placed on the desk of every teacher, and that daily practice of some of the phys- ical exercises there recommended and exem- plified be encouraged and promoted by every proper means. That the “Song Garden,” by Lowell Mason, be substituted as the text book of vocal music forthe “Concordia” in the intermediate schools; and that the “Nightingale,” by W. O. and H S. Perkins, be substituted for the “Golden “Wreath” in the secondary schools. The committee also believe that a better op- portunity would be afforded for testing the practical utility of certain maps, apparatus and articles of school furniture, sought to be introduced if an opportunity were afforded, to place such articles for a time in some school for that purpose, and therefore propose the adoption of the following resolution : Resolved, That the committee on Text-Books be authorized to introduce into any appro- priate school such maps, apparatus and school furniture as the proprietors or inven- tors may seek to introduce, for the purpose of fully testing the practical utility of the same. The report was adopted with the exception of that part proposing a change in music books, which subject was referred to the committee on vocal music. Mr. Miller stated that the books now in use had been literally sung out, and the children ‘wanted something new, while Mr. Wight. Mr. Hitz and others held that it was better to learn afew pieces well than to ramble over several books and not at least geta proper education into the elements of music. On motion of Mr. Miller, it was Resolved, That the Committee on Text-Books be authorized to make all necessary arrange- ments for the introduction of “Lippincott’s Pronouncing Gazetteer” and of “ Mason’s Mapuel of Gymnastic exercises” into the re- spective schools. , In view of the opening of the schools on Mon- day next, Mr. Wilson proposed the foliowing for the government of teachers as to the open- ing.

In all other cases pupils will be required to obtain tickets prior to their admission to the schools. 3d.

Mayor’s Office, Georeetown. D.C, Aug. 1854. Those citizens of the town who are ject to the approaching draft to farnish soldiers for our army, and who desire to avoid that service, arein- i in in the following seif-insuring scheme: vi citizen who is liable to be drafted can de- pent the gum of Oue Hundred Dollara ia the Bank of Commerce. The whole sum ao deposited will constitute a fund for the exelusive benefit of those of the depositors who may be drafted The acheme will work thus: Should there be one hundred depositors, for instance, and only twenty of them be drafted, eighty would be protected from service by paying one hundred dollars each, while the whole ten thousand dollars would be distributed in sums of five hundred dollars each to the twenty who were drafted. With that they could obtain substitutes or keep the money and go into service, at their own option. . Of course the real result will beso varied from the one here given as an illustration as to make it more or less beneficial te the drafted parties ; but there is this absolute certainty about it: that every drafted man will ge!» whole of his money back, with the almont equal certainty of more than deuble that sum, probability of his re- ceiving asum of not less than five hundred doars. In this scheme there ean be no juggling, no pre- cedence of favorite individuals, or trivka played off upon the unsuspecting. There will b+ but two well ascertained parties: those who escape the draftand lose their hundred dollars, an? those who are drafted Cae as all the money deposited t 0) ociation. Ehould thie seheme fail of a faverable result, or work any particular hardship to one of the de- positers, the subscriber hasin view an adjunctive rebeme which will afford the necessary relief with- out any additional costa to ioe, aiacaiatios. ‘or rmation app aA ee Hi HEN BY ADDISON, Mayor.
