Moses re- garded the selection of time as very unfortu- nate, 3s ourmerchants and other citizens would be too muah engaged thea to give their atten- tiop to tbe matier. Mr. Hoover said that the time fixed upon could not be changed now, as the speakers had ne * sm t to open campaign promptly. MP RW. Forwick World have ‘preferred rome other night, but still, as Saturday night ad been fixed upon, there should be no such word as foil, and the Conservatives of the ‘Third Ward would respond in good old style. Mr. H. A. Clarke concorred in the objections urged to the ratification on Saturday night, and apprehended that many persons would be compelled to stay away on account of bus ness woo would otherwise attend. The me: chants were busier on Saturday nights than any other, and it was the general rule of house- keepers then to make their purchases of groce- Ties, &c., for the ensuing week. He wanted to see an enthusiastic demonstration, and hoped, if there was any way of doing so, that the night would be changed. The association then approved the report of the committee providimg for the ratification on Saturday bight, when, on motion of Mr. Hoover, the Third Ward Anti-Radical Club ‘were invited to we with their associa- tion at the ratifieation meeting to-morrow night.

One or more members is needed in each Ward, or each Schoo! District, to properly look after the schools and the sehool property. In view of these facts, and ofthe further con- sideration that the Mayor and a majority of the Onty Councils are now Repu and hence friends of equal rights and im educa- on, ‘were understood to be about to elec a Hoard of Trustees for the Public Schools, such as should represent the views and inter- ests of the Repablican majority,—it pee ogy age interests of All would be subseryi the pro} : ‘was no longer aneed of a separate Board, as inere bad been at the ume it was constituted. ‘The colored citizens, it was unders! be represented proportionately im the new Board—probably by the very men now on the separate |, with others; Mayor Bowen would be cz-oficio President of the and thas bis services in belalf of the colored schools would be retained, and the is People be substantially gratified, notwithstanding the political dislike of the honorable Secretary of the Interior, the colored schools would become public school property of the Corporation; the teachers Would be entitled to increase of pay with the white-school 5 and thus all invidious #nd unjust distinction om account of color be wiped ‘out. This “equality before the luw’ is just what every intelligent colored citizen was sup] to be aspiring for and demanding; and that any would “protest” agaiast it when Proffered was not once imagined by me. It is claimed, indeed, by some, that our col- ored citizens should, through a separate Board ot Trustees, have the czclusire control and ap- propriation of the funds set apart for colored schools. This claim will hardly be considered 8 jost or reasonable one, when itis remembered that but a fraction of this fund is furnished by the colored tax-payers—that the great buik of the money comes from the pockets of the white citizens. A contrary impression, I am aware, is somewhat prevalent, but itis an evident mistake. he bgp oaed of colored citizens ot Georgetown is variously es- tumated at from one to two million dollars worth. Taking the largest estimate (#2,(4x),00) the amount of the school tax on it for the cur- Tent year, at 35 cents to the hundred dollars, will be only $7,000; whereas itis expected that from 340,000 to $70,000 will be expended for col- ored schools during the year. Itis right and just that our colored citizens should have their proportionate voice in the ex- penditure of this money: but surely they will Admit that it is neither right nor just that they should have its ¢zclusive control. The money, coming from the whole » should of course be expended in the interestof the whole, and not merely ofa ciass. But in the matter of schools, the interest of the whole is the interest of erery class; and this is to have the best schools and the greatest number of them that the money will procure. A Public School Board, therefore, in which bow classes of citizens shall be duly iepre- sented by their best men, and numerous enongh to attend properly to the interests com- mitted to their charge, Is plainly the right thing in the case; and to this I am confident every right-thinking man, when he under- stands the matter, will say amen.

With the aid of the — officers, sib was soon out of danger; but he remained in an insensible condition for some hours. He had fastened a small rope to the kmeb of @ door, and passing it over the top made @ noose through which he thrast his head. and swung off. Doubtless in a few min. ures more he would have been past restoration. It wil? be recollected that a few weeks since the wife of Mr. Kalb eloped with a man named Myers, and was overhauled in Baltimore and brought back by Detective Bigley. The par. tues, i: was thought, made an le settle. ment, but it seems that since that time be has been much depressed in spirits, and it is sup- posed that the conduct of his wife led him to attempt the commission of the act. _———— Tre River Frowt, July 17.—Berry's Wharf.
