The Bible in our Common Schools. A meeting, or Convention, composed of delegates from several organizations of the Order of United Americans, was held last evening in a room in the third story of No. 267 Bowery. The object of this Convention was the dis- cussion of the question of the reading of the Bible in our common schools, and the number of gentlemen who as- sembled at the place stated was precisely twenty-five. The paucity in the attendance was owing to the inclo- mency of the weather and the fact that the call had been advertised but a short time before the day appointed. Mr. 8. Baldwin presided, and Mr. C. D. Colton officiated as Secretary At a previous meeting of this Convention, held in June last, a committee was appointed to prepare a report on the question stated, the report of which committee was read by Mr. John’ R. Voorhis. The report, in brief, re- commended the support and election of Protestants as members of the Board of Education, to the exclusion of all others. It algo insisted that a pledge should be required from them that they should enforce the roading of the Bible. A series ot resolutions was appended to the report in favor of the appointment of a committee, whose duty it should be to go to Albany and procure the passage of an ameniment in the law, directing the Bible to be the common schools. The resolutions provided ¢ appointinent of a committee of five to make ar- rangements for a mass meeting, to be held at some future day, at which the whole subject would be presented to the people, and proper indignation expressed at the high handed ontrage committed upon their rights iv banishing the Bible from the sebools, The report wus adopted with very little discussion, and by & unanimous vote. ‘On the mass mooting the following gentlemen were ap- pointed ae a commitiee:—Mesers. J. R. Voorhis, 8. k. Thorn, J. Hotaling, G. H. Raymond, C. D. Cowen,’ J. W. Heap,’B. F. Hancock and N. 3. Huested.

When the Board was in session Mr. Kennedy declined to make his report, on the ground that all the members were not present, and also that he had promised Supervisor Stillman to withhold it till he was in attendance. Supervisor Ben. hoped that the matter would be pre- sented and acted upon at once. and added that there was an equal representation from each party present.

A very selec! and appreciative audience, among whom were many habitués of the Opera, attended at Nidlo’s Sa- joon Thursday night to hear Mr, Moagher’s second series of his narrative of Central America, The pictures illustrating this portion of the entertainment were entirely new, and btill more beautiful than the first series, both ef which are executed in the highest style of art by the eminent scenic artist, Mr, Joseph Kyle, from rketebes by Don Ramon Paez, who accompanied Mr. Meagher in his late visit to Central America. The narrative was of the most interest ing and delightful character, and evidenuy impressed the aud.enee most favorably. At the prosent time everything connected with Central America is important, and nothing could have been more interesting \n that regard than the brilliant digcourse of the narrator. Among the pictures presented were, first, “The Valley of Cartago,”” which Mr. M. spoke of as surpassing in beauteousness and gran, deur the fabulous Valley of Rasselas.

The trustees of the American Institute have at length published their long promised ‘ Address to the Pablic, on the Occasion of the Disastrous Conflagration of the Crys- tal Palace,” in a pamphlet of eight pages. Ite length pre- cluding its entire insertion in our columns, the following is a brief résumé, and the pith of the address, The thirtieth annual fair of the Institute is set forth as a success at the moment of the destruction of the Crystal Palace. The spa~ cious building was overflowing with the evidences and products of American industry, and the Board of Manager and their employes were reported to have been vigilant and carefully guarding against the possible occurrence of such adisaster. Hence the destruction of the building and property of the inventors is unhesitatingly as cribed to the torch of the incendiary. Tho loss to the In Stitute is stated at $10,000; that of the exhibitors, of course, nameless. The Institute confirms the conclusion of the Board of Managers, that it was “‘ inexpedient”’ to con- tinue the fair after the destruction of the Palace, as they believed it“ wonld have proved a failure and subjected the Institute to the incubus of a debt which it could no sustain.’’ The destruction of the Palace “took place 80 early in the exhibition,” says the address, ‘that the judges had not decided upon the merits of any of the arti- cles for competition, except in the case of a part of the hor ticultural }, 80 that, except to these, no premiums could ly beawarded.’’ The address claims for the In- stitute fidelity to ts with the public to sumtaun which reference is made to the exhibition in 1863, when the fair was beld in Castle Garden, on account of the poat- ponement of the opening of the Palace, at a loss to the In- stitute of $5,000. To meet certain charges preferred ist the trustees in their nt of the business ‘the Institute, the following tabular statement is made of receipts, expenditures and surplus during the last years:— 41 $7,631 41— $1,268 00 5,128 301 9S 6,571 31 1473 69 6,826 75 916 00 6,283 622,626 28, is bee 10;225 25 4,086 76 9619 06 = 5,656 21 16/289 13 6,130 O1 oat 178948 82 f 10,909 84 wd ‘21,821 30 5,883 89 23,145 06 4,616 21 26,947 98 1,718 86 Following this, the writers of the address let out # secret which the ‘public, particularly the uninitiated coun- try public—were probably unprepared to hear. Show frequently been suspected of engaging crowds and boys in bigger clothes to * walk up to #ee "in order to attract by example the crowd which the noisy brass and sheepskin bad failed to draw in with the currency in hand. The trustees to this have been no strangers, and acknowledge an alarming amount of deadheadista. ’ Acknowledging the usual “complimen tary invitations to thoge whose patronage to science and Aart it is desirable to seoure, as well as to public men in every profession, to enlist their favor,” the address con tinues the catalogue “by including ‘the families of the members in their tickets, extending to exhibitors, mili tary corps and others (ree admission at all times, and seattering ladies’ tickets among their friends, they have thus crowded their exhibition with visiters, and increased the attractions of the fair to citizens and strangers who wore ready lo purchase tickets at the door. And though the thousands who nightly thronged our faira without pay may have lod to the exaggerated estimates made of our receipts, yet we are persuaded that they contributed to bring other thousands in sufficient numbers who did pay, and thus secured the object of the fair. “Thousands who nightly thronged our fairs without pay’ will, therefore, quash any proposed investigation ‘on the part of the discontented exhibitors, The trustees, satisfied with this explanation, add:—'May we not, then, claim, on behalf of the Am institute, that "by ite thrifty and prudential management of its tiseal concerns its officiary is entitled to the confidence of all its members and friends, at home and abroad?” The following is a statement of amounts annually ex pended for premiums:— CONT OF PREMIUMS AWARDED BY TIE AMRRICAN INSTITUTE PROM yi ne 1844, Mahere i no tute, but from the arsurance friends, everywhere, that though wo are ci the recent unforeseen calamity , yet we are not destroyed, we conclude that the Institute purpose holding their fair again in the coming year On Thursday evening the spacious rooms of the new building of the Third Avenue Railroad Co., between Sixty-ifth and Sixty-sixth streets, on Third avenue, were inaugurated by a grand invitation ball, given by the conductors of the road to their numerous friends and ac. quaintances.

Above the ball rooms were supper, or refreshment rooms, of the same dimensions, where, during the night, am agreeable change of entertainment was provided. The new depot, in which the ball was given, was com mencesl in 1866, and was completed about the first of May last; but the offices of the company were occupied about 2& the commencement of the year.
