IMPORTANT DISCUSSION ON THE QUESTION OF NI BIBLE IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS. The Board of Education held a special inceting last evening, Wm. H. Neilson, the President, in the chair. A communication was received from Mayor Tiemann trapemitting a report from the Fire Wardeus, pronouncing primary school No. 16, in East Twenty-flith street, to be in an unsafe condition, The document was referred b+ the Committee on School Buildings. After the routine business of the evering—which was of Bo importance—a report of the Committee on By-laws, in relation to the reading of the Bible in the schools, was submitted. Annexed is the REPORT. ‘The public school eystem of this clty sprang out of a contra verey in sclution to Uir religious teaching of the sebiools. | wos alleged e that the sehoole then existing were se terion schools, aud thet the state aystem shoul! be totroduced, by which the schools should re macaged by ollicers chowen b the people of the warse respectively, ‘be first acho! law (842) extended ihe State ayatem to this city, and provided that bo school “in whieh any rehgious sectarian’ doctring, or tenet, shouid be tity bt ineaieated or practised, should reoeive «ny the kehool moneys” ‘Under this act, in February, ollowing resoluucn Was adopted bythe Board of ed ‘That In the opinion of this Board, the use of the ertptures, without uote or comment, in all or any of the seheole embraced withia said act (the act of 1842) is prohi- bited ther the dsourd do recommend the a trary, this ‘Ube Of tbe seme in all hoo!s. Ih 1848 the act Was nmended by extending the prohibition to any school “in which any book o¢ books containing any Rect arian ec positions should be used in the caurae of instruc tion.” ‘The first school was opened in January, 1843. Under these provisions, in July, 1843, a new election having brought ry ty of new members, it was insisted hut the com: mou version of the ible used by Protestants snoald be ex- eluded 4s A sectarian book. An elaborate report on the sub- Jeet was made to the Koard of Education by at pectal Com mittee of the Board, and in pursuaace of the recommendation et he commit adopted, by # majority of twenty to se was not “sectarian withio the meaning of te Jaw,” und the use of the Bible In the schools Was nied by the board. In Wit the whole wel bh Fevised, and a provision inserted denying Lunthority to the Board or Education to exclute the Holy from, irow Pry of the sebools provided for by this act,” and in these particulars the Inw renting ux changed to this day. Foon alter ‘he passage of this actor 184, wod alter a aew election under it bad Drought in many pew members, resolu tions were introduce’ into the Kourd declaring that the local Boards bad vo right exclude the Rible—that Ite exetusion was a violwion of law—und that the achools ‘rom which it was @ bad Lo right to purticlpate in the public money. At wrsiderable discussion the resolutions were negatived. Ayes 1s, noes 20. ‘An atlempt was then made to procure some Jegialative modification or construction of the Jaw on this subject, which also fatled, then acquiesced in measures of peace, ‘and the Jaw, ip spect, has remained unebanged.

Within he hotels 1 find only desolation and a few army men, who look miserable in their uniform clothes, which the new regulation compels them to wear at the seat of gov- ernment. Without, people say that there is not only vothing doing, but that there is nothing to be done. There are heavy dinners, to be sure, but no parties, and many of the prettiest women who have heretofore illumined the saloons are not coming at ail.
