At the meeting of the Board of Trustees on Tuesday night, the Superintendent presented an abstract of the monthly reports of the schools for September, 1*70, from which it appears that the whole number of pupils on the rolls Septem- der 00, was 6,563 ; at the corresponding date last year the number was 5,751—increase, 812. This gratifying increase is to be tound entirely in the Primary and secondary grades, and is made up, not by the organization of additional schools, but by an increase of the numbers in attendance im the schools of last year.

NELLIE HILL OUT AGAIN, Mag: en Sick, but a Nymph When Well— A Queer History, - The name of the,unfortunate girl mentioned in the caption of this article will be remem- bered as that mentioned in Tuk STAR On August ivth last, as that of the girl who was the un- voluntary target for two pistol balls tired bya dry goods peddler named John Jackson, in the vicinity of 1ith and C streets. THE SHOOTING occurred about half-past nine o'clock at night, on the Isth of August last, as is thus stated in ‘Tux Stakon the following day: ‘The residents of the vicinity of 10th and C streets werestartled last night, about half-past nine o'clock, by the report of two pistol shots in «quick succession. it appears that it was an attempt to take life, the victim being a girl of ill-repate, known as Nellie Hill, and the would-be-marderer a man named John Jackson, a peddier of dry goods. Jackson has been on terms of intimacy with Nellie Hill, and both have been living together for some time in various houses of ill-fame, bat latterly, on account of his harsh conduct towards her, she determined to break off connection with him and go elsewhere to live. Overawed by his threats she continued with him, however, and at bis desire moved first from one house to another, stopping at each but ashort time on account cf the constant P oegting between the parties. ‘This course of life she tired of, and yesterday atternoon she secretly forwarded her trunk to the house of Annie Wilson, on 10th street, near C, and was on her way down lith street to her new home when she met the man Jack son. Frightened at his appearance, she started to run, he quickly following her, and when near the corner of 11th and C streets be overtook her, and with an oath he drew from lits side pocket a Smith & Wesson pistol and discharged it twice, one ball going through her arm and the other entering the breast just below the heart. A large crowd soon collected, and Jackson was arrested by Officer Harrigan and taken to the central guardhouse, while police officer Peaster took charge of the girl, and removed her to the central guardhouse also. Drs. Hartigan, Wal- ter, Croghan and Duncan were soon on hand, and made several ineffectually attempts to tind the ball in the breast. A short while after ar- tiving at the guardhouse she recovered suftici ently to speak, and said that Jackson had shot her, but said nothing more about the case, De- ive Mcbevitt asker her if she did not want a minister, when she requested to see a Catholic and Mr. MeDevitt at once went for Kev.

Some friends, however, managed to work their way into an interview with her, by introducing themselves as detectives, one of whom, A GALLANT MAJOR, afterwards saw her frequently, being so priv- ileged from the fact that he punctaally paid her board in advance, $14 per week. The Major who, in this instance was such a friend of ‘Nellie, is well known in this community as a jolly good fellow, and restaurant keeper, ‘Xe. That he liked Nellie his money proved. ‘That she liked him is attested by the fact that more than once the medical attendants were requested by her to ‘please, if you are going down town deliver this note to Major —, at the —— House.” Once, though, she came near being tripped up, asthe bearer of the in his next interview with her remarked, Well, Nellie, I left that note WITH THE MAJOR'S wiPE.” “What,” she said, “‘why didn’t you leave it with him?” “Well, to tell you the trath,” sai “his wife teld me be was up gairs brick.” Shrugging her shoulders, jejoined, “Weil, it don’t make any differ Betore her convaieserice, in tact while supposed to be in danger, she made an ante-mo statewent, which is now in possession of C oner Fotter, as to the facts of the shooting, c., copmencing thus: “I, Mary Feely, alias Neliie Hill, of Boston, Massachusetts, aged 20 years, do hereby state, Kc.” This document 4s si by her im her true name, and in a clear, beauti- ful band.

On Saturday last we published an account of the matrimonial exploits of one David H. Patton. Asthe culprit has been arrested and there are further developements in the case we will brietly recapitulate the facts contained in our first publication as follows: About four years David H. Patton (or Louis Patten as he is called in the New York papers) entered in- to the bonds of matrimony at Baltimore, Mary- land, with a lady of that place. The couple lived together a short time, but Mrs. Patton be- came dissatistied and left her husband, who then came to this city where he made the acquain- tance of a Miss Hill, the daughter of his land- lady, a worthy resident of this city. Miss Hill is a and avows she loves Patton. At all eloped with him to Brooklyn a few ey were followed by Miss Hill's ho took them to a minister in Brook- witnessed an aid for their marriage. Mrs. Hill having heard of the tirst marriage left here for the purpose of prosecuting the case, as stated in our first article, taking a letter from Major Kichards to the Marshal of Brooklyn, also the marriage certiticate of her daughter and the evidenc+s of the Baltimore marriage. She proposed to have the Baltimore Mrs. Patton accompahy her, but that lady, it seems for some reason, did not go. Patton was arrested in Brooklyn last Saturday onthe charge of bigamy and Mr. J. B. Hill, brother of the Washington Mrs. Patton, went there last Sunday to aid his other in the prosecut.on of the case. ‘The rest of the story is thus told in the New York World ot yesterday:— Mrs. Hill came on to Brooklyn, where she preferred a complaint betore Justice Walsh, charging Mr. Patten with bigamy. Mr. Patten was arreste: Hill in the meantime regretted what she had done, and ge eed to withdraw the com- Justice Walsh refused to aliow the al,and set down the examination tor Mrs. Hill’s son hag since arrived from Washingtor, and attempted to kidnap his sister. An interview between motier and daughter was arranged at the office of Councillor Keady, who appears for Mr. Patten, but the young’ lady failed to come to time, and sends her ‘ma’a po- lite note declining to see her, and adding that as she brought this trouble on herself she (Mrs. Hill) could get out of it as best she could. As for Leese irs. Patten) she would stick to Pat- ten through thick and thin. Mr. Patten has just opened a crockery store on Gourt street where he hopes to make his young wife bapps and in the meantime procure @ divorce from his firet wite. Such is the course of true love.” o THE COURSE OF TRUE LOVE. a SECRET MARRIAGE. An Irate Mother-in-Law. A very young but very determined gentle- man, clerk in a fancy store on Bri‘ge street, Georgetown, not @ hundred miles front the street-car terminus, bas for several months past been paying his “devours” to a handsome young lady, daughter of a worthy widow, * just around the corner’ on High street, in that Place. ‘The young people were anxious for a matrimonial alliance, but the widow, for some Teason—either because she thought the candi- daies for weddea usa were wy yvutnrat, or the prospective britcgrodm's salary too light to Carry dowble—set her face against the match, and throw all the obstacles she could in the way. This, as is usual in such cases, only tntlamed the ardor of the lovers. So affairs progressed until about the first week in August last, when the young man obtained leave of absence. 1 Jeft the District on a lady was absent from leasure tour. The young me visiting some friends about the same time, but returned in due sea- fon, as did ‘‘her own true love” from his pleas e trip, and affairs proceeded as they did efore, ‘‘ only @ little more so.” TRIPLES LIGHT AB ATR, to an ordinary observer, but strong as proot from holy writ to the optics of the experienced widow led her to believe that a greater degree of intimacy existed between the two young people than was warranted ip the orlinary course of courting, and she af once began to suspect that she had been outwitted. Keeping her suspicions to herself, she had inquiries male in Philadelphia and Baltimore, througt which citics the young man passed, but was unable to discover any evidences of @ marriage having taken place. She then renewed the search nearer home, that is, in the Federal Metropolis, and here her eifurts wi rowned with success.

Active measures were taken to plant the Lutheran Church and organize con- gregations in localities where it has hitherto not been established. Seven new fields within the State and along the Virginia side of the Poto- mac were recommendea to the general board for missionary aid. At night the mission anni- versary was held. On Sunday, after a sermon by Dr. G. Diehl, in the evening, S. G. Finckle, ¥. A. Conradi and W. C.
