We allude to his reverence to rule 42 of the ¢ Rules of the School Board,’ which {s printed tn the re- ports published during the last decade, so that there has_been no concealment, and no ground or excuse afforded for the use of the objectionable language of the first controller.” ‘The paper held that the school board 1s not sub- Ject to the interference of the first controller in the exercise of their judgment touching the matter and manner of the employment of teachers, pro- vided that they do not exceed the appropriations of Congress; that the rules allowing substituteaincase ot absence enforced by illness or other cause, was believed that the harsh rale proposed by the first controlier would be inhuman, and would discou!

For the last three years I have been unable todo any labor, and suffering intensely all thetime. Every morn- ing there could be nearly a dustpanful of scales taken from the sheet on my bed, some of them half as large as the envelope containing this letter.
