In the month of January, 1% parsed a joint resolution authorizing the of the Interior to grant to John B. Fowle Elida B. Rumsey the use of a portion of re~ anc Judiciary square, to erect thereon, free from charge to the United States, a suitable building for a soldiers’ free library and reading room for soldiers. The resolution provided that all the ex- mse should be borne by the said Fowle and umsey, and that all benefits and privileges of the library and reading room should be granted to the soldiers, free of charge, and that the building should be removed whenever the Sec- retary of the Interior should require the same to be done. ELIDA FR. RUMSEY was the daughter of the late John W. Rumsey, of this city, architect and builder of the How- ard University and the Congregational church. Bhe @ young lady, highly accomplished in all the branches of polite education, and in her musical talent had few rivals. She was entha- siastically «ievoted to her missionary work among the sick and wounded soldiers in this ity, and determined to employ her musical tal- | ent in erecting a library and furnishing it with books for their use. She gave a series of con- certs until she had raised the necessary fands | to erect the building and fill it with a choice se- | lection of books.

Permission was granted, and the 8 ppointments were confirmed. Mr. Hart, from the committee to whum was ferred the matter of the abolition or continn- ance of THE TEACHING OF THE GERMAN LANGUAGE in the public schools, submitted a report res ommending the continuance of said study, with the following modifications: Experience having shown that in no instance whatever have whole classes tak > of the opi er- man taught between the hours of 12 m. and 1p. m. and Sand 4 o'clock p.m.,in order to pre- vent any interference with the regular studies of the schools, the teachers to give three les- sons @ week to the first and two lessons a week to the second classes in their respective dis- tricts. The committee further recommend that the salary of the German teacher be fixed at the value of $600 fer Annum, and say: «‘In rec- ommending the fatter the committee has con- sidered the time which can possibly be given to the schools by the German teacher, and are yet of the opinion that the amount named is a fair compensation, It is also to be understood that German teachers shall only be appointed if the requisite number of classes are furnished by the German schools of the district, as prescrib- ed by law.” This report was signed by Messrs. Hart and Detrick. A TIME FOR ALL THINGS. Mr. Dulin inquired why a restaurant was not provided for. The pupils should have some time toeat. (Laughter.) Mr. Scott said he had not signed the report, for he was opposed to the study being taught | out of school hours; the noon hour bolonged to the pupils, and they were entitled to leave for home at 3 o'clock p. m. Mr. Hart said that he had drawn up the re- port after a consultation of one and a half hours with Messrs. Detrick and Scott, and it was in accordance with what they agreed upon. He spoke at some length ot the progress made in the schools, defending the study of German. Mr. Detrick defended the report. The scholars onght to be tanght German, and therefore he would yote for the employment of a teacher. He thought $600 was a sufficient salary for the time the study is taught.

Mr. Woodward explained that there was urgent necessity for the renting of rooms, ani unless the authority was given the female gram mar and intermediate school would have to suspend. The fencing about the building corner of Sth and F, streets is already down, and he could not tell when General Babcock’s men would commence to demolish the building. ‘The resolution was amended so as to give the sub-board full power to select rooms for the schoois, and adopted. etrick moved that in making up the an- nual report the abstract of the proceedings and roll of honor be omitted; referred.

REPLY TO “ A DEPOsITOR.” Editor of The Star:—1 am surprised that a depositor of Ruff’s bank should rusb into print making such a wild statement as appeared in ‘Tue STax last evening. +: Depositor” asserts as a fact that the expense attending the pro- ceeding in court will not exceed 14 per cent., under any circumstances, leaving 4\ per cent. to be divided among the depositors at the expi- ration of one year. The court will not allow interest on deposits. Al! interest ceased on the day the receiver was I bgp oeem and it is all nonsense to talk about the depositors receiving 4's percent. at the expiration of one year. What the depositors want is their principal, and not interest. If Mr. Ruff ts forced into bankruptcy after paying 50 per cent. of his liabilities, he can resume business again. The expenses of the bank are nearly #1,000 Fy toup om (the depos- itors must pay It.) and if the bank remains in the hands of the receiver the de rs must pay his fees, the o@urt’s fees, the c! fees for ling our claims and the auditor’s fees for auditing them, and rest assured it will not be a small item, but @ very large one.

G Master Stansbury stated that in call- a Ld together he had yielded in deference to the wishes of many of tlie brethren. What- ever was done by them should be done in the | character of Master Masons. The chapters, command aries and Scottish rite could take sim- ilar action, if they felt so dis) ‘When the disaster befel Chicago it would be remembered with what unanimity the fraternity throughout the country came forward and proffered succor to their suffering brethren. This was a greater calamity than that, and demanded their prompt and fullest aid. Mr. N. D. Larner moved that the grand sec- retary be directed to transmit a circuiar letter toeach of the different lodges, and ask that voluntary contributions be maite by them to this object. In that way he felt contident a large sum would be realized. . Dr. R. B. Donaldson suggested that the grand master call especial attention to this subject in his visitations to the subordinate lodges which are now in progress, and urge that liberal con- tributions be made by the brethren. A personal appeal by the grand’ master would have more ject than the reading of a circular letter. n. Albert Pike was favorable to anything that would bring relief to the sufferers in our sister cities, but was afraid it could not be ac- complished by this method, He then read a letter from a member of a Scotch society in that city asking aid from the St. Andrew's Society of ‘this city. The letter states that they were without money or food, and sadly in need of aid He said that this assistance should be furnished immediately, The Hebrews of this city had been active, and had already forwarded £500 to the relief of those of their faith. The work should be begun at once, and there should be no delay on account of waiting for the action of the lodges. The Odd Fellows have sent $500 a+ their contributions. The Knights of Pythias were at work, and he did not want to soo the Masons out-run in the response fur charity and aid. He moved that a committee of twenty be appointed to immediately solicit contributions. Kev. Dr. Sunderland said it was a most sub. lime and God-like feeling that had called them togetuer. ile had but $10 in his possession, and would give half of that to the cause. The proposition was then adopted, and sab- scriptions were collected on the spot as follows : Dr. Sunderland, $! son, $2; J. li. Wadsworth, 85; Mr. Corey, 3 J. B. Dawson, $1; cash, $2; H. Piko, $2.50; Dr. Stanton, $2; collection, $10.10; Dr. Donaidson, $5; W.J. Stephenson, #4; I. L. Johnson, $5.

The New scavenger System in Opera. jon. ‘To-day the machines tor the removal of night soil are at work here, and reports to the office of the Board of Health are to the effect that the apparatus works satisfactorily. As was to be expected the scavengers are not at all pleasad that the old-fashioned cart and bucket system is to be superseded by the new process, and they claim that the right to remove the night-soil is still with them. There are two dumping de- pots in the District—one at the foot of 17th and one at the Eastern brancl terminus of S Buzzard’s Point,) where the scavengers en required to keep their earts during the day, taking them out at night and returning them tothe sheds inthe morning. Yesterday the health ofiicer, Dr. P. 'T. Keene, issued the proper orders to prevent them taking out the carts, but it appears these orders were violated. Marshall Brown, Frederick Weibersall and Daniel Williams,’ whose districts are in the northern part of the city, each took their carts from the ivth-street depot, and engaged in the business as usual, and it is charged that on their return, finding the house closed up, they forced the door an dumped theircarts. George H. Newman, whose district is in South Wash- ington, took his cart from the S-street sheds, notwithstanding the watchman (Mr. Allen) m- formed him that he would not be allowed to re- enter the sheds, and after obtaining @ full load he left the cart standing outside the sheds. To- day the attorney of the board, Mr. A. K. Browne, received the raports of the in- spectors to the health officer in these cases, and is preparing the informations to secure their arrest and trial before the P Court, under the act of September 20th, 1573 This act provides ‘that from and after the Ist day of October, A. D. 1573, no. part of the con- tents (except substances not soluble in water) of any privy, privy-box, vault, sink, or cesspo0 within the cities of Washington and George- town, and the immediate and more densely- populated suburbs thereof, shall be removed theretrom, nor shall the same be transported through any of the streets, avenues, alleys, or other public places of said’ cities, and their su- burbs aforesaid, except as the same shall be re- moved and transported by means of some air- tight apparatus, pneumatic or other process, so as to prevent the contents of said privy, privy- box, vault, sink, or cesspool from ee weltavad or exposed in the open air during said process of removal and transportation; and that any person or persons violating the provisions of this ordinance shall, upon conviction thereof, be punished by a fine of not less than &10 nor more than $50 for each and every such offence.” The scavengers claim that they were appoint- ed by the governor for two years, unless sooner removed, and that while the board may make regulations as to the manner in which they shall do their work, they have no power inde- pendent of the [beep to remove them or virtually abolish their offices.

The Pall Mall Gazette, of October 2d giver the fol- lowing extract of Dr. Schiloman’s reasoning: Wherever there has been an old town, he says, our excavations yield us postherds, nothing be- ing so indestructible as haked clay. No town can be older than the oldest nor more recent than the most recent potsherds found in its ruins. At Bunarbasbi, on the Baldaugh, where Welcher and other echolars supposed lion to have stood, excavations have never yielded any potsherds of a higher date than the sixth cen- tury, B.C. Sir. John Lubeock, who had t ‘alled tomb of Hector on the Baldagh exc vated «1 no terr-cottas there that were oic er than tif@ third century, B. ©. Dr. Schiieman considers this as proof suflicient that the raine there cannot be those of the ancient Ilion, and he asserts that an inscription which he discoy- ered enables him to identify Bunarbashi with the town of Gergis. The late Austrian consul, Von 8, who likewise explored that terri- tory, stated that in spite of caretal research on the northern side of the Baldagh, between tne Acropolis (of Gergis) and the springs of Banar- bashi, not one single sign was detected of a former settlement, not even potsherdsof frag- ments of bricks, the never-absent and theretore undoubted witnesses of ancient towns; no- where a building, a stone, a quarry, or an arti- ficial touch by the hand of man. Dr. Schilie- mann has examined not only the neighborhood of Bouarbathi, where Welcher placed Ilion, bat likewise the hills of Chiblak, where Clarke and Barker Webb placed it, and the an 29 ground near Atzik Koi, where Ulrichs thought he had discovered its ruins, but nowhere has he found any traces of human workmanship. The vil- lage of the [lions (//¢on kome) where Straho, following the theory of Demetrius of Skepris, placed Troy, ywas carefully explered by Dr. Schliemann, but nothing was found there, ex- cept potoherds of the first century, B.C. Inthe la on the Lege? where Dr. Schliemann has lately dug up the very crown jewels of Priam, there are to be found from two to six- teen metres in length images of marble, slate bone and ivory, go lets and vases, and on all of them the form of the Ilian Atene, the patron goddess of Troy, a female figure with an owl's bead; nay, on one golden diadem there were no fewer than a hundred small idols of the same goddess. Sap anp Fatat AccrpeNtT.—We have to chronicle this week asad and painful accident. From the particulars gleaned from the family of the decased, we learn that on last Tuesday, about 4o’clock in the afternoon, Mrs. Harriet Stump, a lady residing in town, started in a sping wagon, accompanied by ‘Miss Fannie Whissen, a young lady, as driver, to viait a triend, living some six miles west of town. They bad gotten as far as the residence of Mr. E. M. Tidball, on the northwest road, when another spring wagon, driven by Mr. Clowser, came thundering behind them. The young lady drove out of the road, but, from some circumstance, Clowser’s wagon ran into them, throwing them both violently to the ground. Both being severely injured, @ man was dispatched for Dr. God- frey Miller, who soon arrived at the scene of disaster. By this time the father of the young lady, John’ Baeongene happened be coming from town, with his wagon, whither he had been purchasing supplies, came up to find Mrs. Stump in a dying condition, and insensible. Under the circumstances it was thought best to bring her to Winchester, and she was consequently placed in Dr. Miller’s buggy and conveyed to her residence in town. Although assiduously cared for she died about 3 o'clock on a Her death was caused, it is thought, from internal inju- ries, the concussion being so powerful. There was not a bruise on her person. Mrs. Stump was about 65 years of age, and a very estimable lady, respected by all who knew her. She was the mother-in-law of Collector Larue, of this Jace. a Mr. Whissen. not hic ger Boomer his dangh- ter was fo badly injured, attempted to carry her home, but upon arriving at Bayliss’ tavern, about four miles from Winchester, was com: Hed to abandon his purpose. She was carried nto the house, and when last heard from was lying in a critical condition. In all probability she may now be dead.— Winchester News, 1ith. Wastine Time.—One day a grand post office official happened to be passing through a gov- ernment office with which he was not connected. There he saw & man standingbefore the fire reading a newspaper. Hours ‘afterwards, re- turning by the same way, he was shocked to find the same man, legs extended before the same fire, still buried in the columus of a news- paper. “ Hallo, sir!” cried the indignant head of department, “‘whatare youdoing?” “Can't you see what Iam doing?” was the answer. ‘Sir, L came through this office four hours ago, and found you reading the paper; [ retarn, and you are still wasting your time in thesame man- ner.” + Very true; you have stated the case to anicety.” Hereupon head of department nat- urally fires u ** What is your name, sir?” he demands. ‘+ Well, J don’t ‘know that my name is any affair of yours--what is your name?” “Sir, L would have ope know that I am the So- and-so of the ice!” Indeed! Well, I am_ very glad to hear it. I am, sir, simply one of the public who have been kept waiting here for hours for an answer toa simple questien, and I shall be much obliged if you will use your influence to get me attended to.”—South London Press.

The account of the Nashville affair states that the greased necks of @ gander twenty years old and @ goose twenty-three years old were pulled otf. “At the close of the tournamen;,” we are in- formed, ‘the knights attempted to race, when a horse ran over the fence with Frank McGay- ock, throwing and bruising him badly. The whole audience rose en masse, appalled, think- ing be had been killed, and a general confusion ensued.” The harm would not have been very eat if the horses of all the knights engaged in fre brutol sport had ran away with them and broken their riders’ necks. The work of recon- struction cannot be said to be complete ina community where ‘“gander-pulling knights" are awarded honors by the managers of state fairs. Tre Raip or A Catirornta Low Jake Bergman, an Augusta (Cat,) ranchero, was wakened one morning in September by & peculiar noise among his. cattle, and, having dressed and started for the ranche, he found them drawn up in a perfect hollow square with the calves in the center, while the horns of the old ones bristling on the outside made it look decidedly perilous for an enemy to approach. Hardiy had Bergman reached this array when « big California lioness sprangfupon him. He Was unarmed, but was 4 man of immense mus- cular power. ‘The two embraced cordially, but the brute was too much for Bergman; she clawed the flesh off his breast _and arms in a very uncomfortable manner. But Bergman's Indian servant came up, and the lioness tossed Bergman aside and went for the red-skin, tear- ing ft up at her own sweet will. The brate had dug in nearly to the poor Indian's untutored » When Bergman came down on her head with a stake and crushed in her skull.
