Protracted and Exciting Ses: of the Board on a Question of Character—Trusiee Stuart Say: He wiil Resign. A special meeting of the board of trustees of ublic schools was held at the Franklin butld- ing last evening, at which Messrs. Richards (in the chair), Hart, Harris, Stuart, Faust, AtL3e, Scett, Dulin, French, Champlin, Crook and Wilson were present. On motion of Mr. Hart, the report of the committee on prizes and ex- aminations, made at the previous meeting, was adopted. Mr. Scott subsequently gave notice of @ motion to reconsider this vote. Applications for teacherships were received from Miss Jennie McSweeney and others, and referred to the su- perintendent. WHAT STARTED THE DISCUSSION. Mr. Hart, from the sub-board of the first dis- trict, reported upon the following transfers and nominations: Transfer Miss Fannie E. Jallion, teacher of primary No. 2, to No. 6; appoint Miss y KE. Perkins, teacher of primary No. 1; appoint Miss Hannah K. Hudson, teacher of imary No. 2, in place of Miss Jallien, trans ferred, all to take effect September 1, 1872. Mr Hart stated that this matter had been refer: tothe sub-board at the last meeting, and t! this report was signed by Messrs. Harris, Robin- son and himself. Mr. Stuart expressed the hope that the board would take no action at this meeting.

Mr. Hart said that the ramors had never taken the form of charges, but an investigation was had end the young ladies came out clear. A smaller, meaner, more NTEMPTISLE CONSPIRACY he had never seen. Mr. Stuart said that he did not believe these young ladies were so innocent that he would permit them to associate with his daughters and other teachers. Charges had been made, and Mr. Hart and himselt had been appointed to in- vestigate them, and be (Mr. Stuart) had come to the conclusion that there were good grounds fur the charge, while his colleague thought the condnct of the young ladies was correct ant proper. One of these girls had been employed e 2d district, and sub board there had Cropped her. He believed if an unbiased com- mittce was appointed they would report against her contirmation. He did not believe that they wovid find anything against their moral charac- ter, ard he had no doubt as to their purity, but thonght their conduct was unbecoming, to say the least. VOTING ON THE QUESTION. The motion of Mr. Stuart w postpone was lost: Yeas—Mersrs. Stuart, Faust and Scott— Nays—-Messrs. Hart, Harris, Richards, Caamp- lin, AtLee, Crook, Wilson, Dalin and Freneh—9. Mr. Stuart moved to go intosecret session; lost. Harris moved the confirmation of tne rs, and demanded the previous question. The previoas question was not snstaimed, by the following vote: Yeas—Messrs. Hart, Harris, Champlin, AtLee, Crook and Frene . Messrs. Faust, Stuart, Kicbards, Wilson, INS AND TO MISS and in—6. Mr. Marris moved the confirmation of the teachers, and said that had the subject been pt trom the public he would be in favor or a secret session, but as newspaper reporters had got hold of {t, the rumors had been discussed, and as he was certain as to the result of inyesti- gation, he would favor a full, open, tree discus- 5 vo! ion. Mr. Richards said that when the nominations for the second istrict had been made, he found that one of these ladies, Miss Hudson, had been dropped from the jist, andon inquiry, was told that there rumors affecting her character, start- ed by the keeper of a bourding-house. He cau- tioned his collengnes not to act hastily, and he then beard the other side, when he came to the conciusion that she had been wronged, that t rumors were without foundation, and that she was NOT GUILTY OF AN INDISCRETION EVEN. He was willing now to undo the wrong he had unintentionally committed, and could he find a vacancy in his district he would reinstate her. He cautioned the members to be careful as to what reliance they placed in rumors. If rumors were what they wanted, they could be fouad not only against teachers but trustees. ‘Mr. Harris asserted that these teachers hal met their accusers, and they came out as white as snow in their characters.

They are advised, and will maintain that the board of public works have no powers greater than, nor are they, in many respects, as great as, the said corporations of Washington and Georgetown had over the streets aud avenues or said cities, and that said prohibition by Congress applies with still greater force to them. They further claim that to pave all their tracks and the ground covered by their said charter in the manner and with the material required of them by the said board of public works would require an outiay of uot less than $400,960, and wonld be destructive of the franchises granted to them, while the delay of a protracted coatro- versy in the courts would, it¢hey pot ulowed to construct their road ‘as required by their charter as near to the center of the street as may be practicable and to select the material for pavement, subject the public at large to an nterruption of lines of travel long establishe 4, which would be a nuisance.
