8 THE ALDERMEN'S MATINEE. . Legislative ‘Lallygagging,” with the Ther- mometer in the 90's.” NEW YURK HERALD, FRIDAY, JUNE 20, 1873.—TRIPLE ‘What Mayor Havemeyer Left Behind Him—The | years of age, a native of Cincinnati and a lawyer Nominations for Police Justices Completed—_ How It Tickled the Aldermen—Mutual Explanationson the Charter—Dr. Hall's Nomination Confirmed—Aldermen Reilly’s “Recess” and Chairman. Van Schaick’s Little Gavel. As usual, all the speculations of the knowing ones were knocked endwise yesterday at the mect- ing of the Board of Aldermen, Everybody under- stood there was a deadlock between the Mayor and the Aldermen on the Police Magistrate nomina- tions, for the reason that the Aldermen had re- solved at their last meeting to take no action on the two nominations already made until the Mayor had submitted nominations for the eight magis- tracies to be filled, Mayor Havemeyer had created ‘the impression that he certainly would not let the Aldermen have the ten nominations at one time; but he went away to the coal regions on Tuesday, and left nominations for the eight magistracies on Monday in charge of Secretary Wilder, to be de- iivered to General Pinckney, Clerk of the Common Council, The eight names*have since that time and up to three o’clock yesterday nestied in a pigeon hole of General Pinckney’s safe, and when THEY FLUTTERED INTO THE ALDERMANIC CHAMBER yesterday, at the very openingof the Board, they took nearly everybody by surprise. For the first time in some weeks all the members of the Board were present, and there was a very fine lobby in waiting also. President and Acting Mayor Vance occupied the Chair. Immediately after the reading of the minutes President VANCE announced “A communication from His Honor the Mgyor,” and The Reader read out the following nominations Of persons to be Police Magistrates :— Edward Fitch, Thomas D. Sherwood, dames T. Kilbreth, Walter 8. Cowles, William G. Ulshoeffer, Elial F, Hall, Marcus Octerbourg, Benjamin v. Wandell, On motion they were laid over and ordered to be printed. Alderman MCCAFFERTY rose and again called at- tention to his point of illegality of action touching the nominations already confirmed, and the estabd- Yshment of the City Record, but as he was not speaking to any question before the Board he re- sumed his seat shortly. The Fourth Reformed Dutch church in West For- tieth street was granted leave to erect two lamps 4n front of their edifice. Alderman Morris moved to take from the table the nomination of Dr. Samuel Hall to be Commis- sioner of Public Parks for the term of one year, Adopted. Alderman Morris then moved to confirm him, and after a little humorous debate, in the course of ‘which Alderman Kocn expressed the opinion that, in- asmuch as, according to some authorities, the city 4s grievously affected with consumption in the first degree, and it was therefore necessary to gather to its aid a8 many doctors as possible, DR. SAMUEL HALLS NOMINATION ‘was unanimously confirmed, A communication from a detachment of the Twenty-second regiment N. G, S. N. Y. was re- ceived, in which it was stated that the command with their guests, thé Charlestown Cadets, desired to tender to ‘the and Common Council a marching salute, and that the saluting companies would pass the City Hall at nal!-gast sour o'clock, ‘The invitation ‘was aocepte: A general skirmish on the question of adjourn- ment followed, in the course of which Alderman MONHEIMER gaye notice that he would, at the next meeting of the Board, introduce a resolution to adjourn over for the months of July and August. On motion of Alderman McCaFFERry it was re- solved, by a vote of 9 to 6, that when the Board ad- Journ it adjourn to meet at ELEVEN O’CLOCE 4. M. OF THURSDAY NEXT. (This means a long session and a ‘“fleld day” over the nominations.) Aresolution to permit the New York and Ne Haven Raitroad Company to lay a new rail eurv and switch at the depot in Centre street was re- ferred to the Committee on Public Works. Alderman Coorer introduced a resolution to the effect that, inasmuch as a doubt exists as to the power of the Mayor and of this Board to appoint city marshals at large from the city instead of from or to the city judicial district, the Corpora- Hon Counsel be reqnested to submit his opinion upon he question to the Board. Alder MCCAFFERTY moved to refer the sub- Ject to the Law Committee of the Board, « Alderman MoniffiMER said, if the Corporation Counsel got that communication, he would LOOK I UP INDEFINITELY. ‘ER objected to its being referred ‘to the Law Committee. The motion to refer was lost Py a vote of7 to 8 Alderman CoorEr rose to explain that there was @ grave doubt as to the power of the Mayor to ap- point city marshals at large when they were as- agnable to the various judicial districts, Alderman MCCAFFrzRTY thonght the Mayor had mot acted any more illegally in regard to these nominations for marshals than he had with regard to all tne other nominations so far sent in. Alderman Coorer said he was happy that his colleague had thus presented to him the oppor- tunity to explain his views of the charter. He then called Alderman McCafferty’s attention to the pro- visions of section 26 of the charter, Which re raja tes ‘the time within which all the charter-nom tations ‘Were to be submitted (twenty days), and next asked him to consider section 3, in reference to the us ¢ And manner of establishing the City Record, hen YRESIDENT VANCE, FINDING THE WEATHER WARM and the debate awfully uninteresting, beckoned Alderman Van Schaick to the chair and left the pace to presiae over the deliberations of the joard. Aldermen McCarreRrty and Cooper continued the @ehate alternately aud kept on interrupting each other with mutual corrections on “the law of the case,” &c. Alderman RriLLy—I move to take a recess of, fif- teen minutes to give Aldermep McCafferty And Cooper time to agree upon this question. Alderman McCarrerty rebuked Alderman Reilly tn a mild way jor treating with levity so grave a question as this, and went ov again to interpret the law to his colleague, Alderman Cooper. Alderman CoorsR then paid a deft compiiment to his colleague, Alderman Mc.afferty, und com- mended his earnestness and zeal in thus pressing @ point upon Witch he was conscientiously 12 doubt. Alderman Ken was malicious enough to raise a 2 gu of order that tue gentleman Was not speak- ng to the question, but Alderman Cooper kept on talking until Alderman Kener had to rap his knuckles on the desk in order to get the Chairman to decide his point of order, EVERYBODY ELSE WAS TALKING at the same time, and The CHAIRMAN pro tem. ruled that “Alderman Cooper has permission to state anything he pleases 4p this Board.” (Loud Iaugiter.) Everybody congratulated Alderman Cooper on the “soit thing’ he had in “this Board;? and Alderman Cooper, feeling encouraged, went on ‘with his charter anaylsts. Alderman MONHEIMER wanted to know what all this had got to do with the regions. Alderman Cooper read halt of one of the longest | sections of the charter, and then, at somebody's wagers he READRR re-read the original resolution, as everybody had forgotten what the sunject under aliscussion was. Alderman MoCarrerty moved {0 amend the re- solution by inserting the word ‘ ideally" after the ‘Word “power.’? Aiderman Morris thought it was 100 HOT TO LISTEN ‘Vo all this, and Alderman Retry moved that the whole subject be aid on the table, which was carried aiid con- Siderable enthusiasm. Alderman CLavsen instanter moved to adjourn. Alderman ReiLty seconded the motion quick as gn ‘and ‘The CHAIRMAN put the motion vira voce to the Board, About three members voted “Aye” and Seven or eight roared “No.” Chairman Van ScHAICK—The motion is carried. DOWN CAME THE GAVEL with @ rap, and up went 4 universal shout of Jaughter, for the motion was in fact lost two to ‘cone. But the flat was pronounced and the Board stood adjourned for a week. Everybody jaughea and was pleased, Alderman Van Schaick was congratulated on all Sides for his master stroke as @ Parliamentarian, end as he has just returned from an extended tour in the West, it was hinted that he had been to see ‘the sessions of the Kalamazoo or Denver Uity coun- cil and had learned from them how to shuteof a dull debate on a hot day. Byerpedy went down to get some of that “marching salute.” The Nominees.

The three first named of these gentlemen are said to be “reformers” (f) and the last 1s generally reported to be a very respectable per- son; but their candidate, Mr. Otterbourg, was in 1866-66 Consul General of the United States to Mex- ico, and had his headqudrters at Vera Cruz.

Sefior Eutierrez, the Mexican artist, to whose very meritorious works we have more than once requested attention, will, on the 80th of the present month, go to Bogota, Columbia (8. A.), to assume the position of President of the newly created Academy of Design therg The pold and vigorous execution for which Sefior Eutierrez is noted has not been without appreciation in this city, although the artist’s unfamiidarity with our language and customs has caused him to be the dupe of more than one of those many knaves who hang like fringe upon the skirts of art. He has several qualities which fit him for his new position, and one of the most remarkable of them is a restless industry, which necessarily impels him to the realization of fresh conceptions. Were he as-refined and finisned as he 1s earnest and laborious there is no artist at resent in this city who would greatly surpass bim in his particular sphere. Art Notes.

J. O'Sullivan on the Sanitary Condition of City Schools—The Evils and Wants of the Present School System Explained. At a stated meeting of the members of the New York Academy of Medicine heid last evening, in the College of Physicians and Surgeons, corner of Twenty-third street and Fourth avenue, Dr. R. J. O'Sullivan delivered an instructive and interesting lecture on the “Hygiene, or Health of Primary Schools in this city.” The chair was occupled by Dr. Flint,{and the following physicians formed the presiding quorum of the evening, viz:—Drs. Agnew, Jacobi, J. 0. Peters and others, In opening his discourse Dr. O'Sullivan alladed to the extravagant but necessary expenses lavished in the building of schools, in order to afford every facility for promoting education. with a just con- ception of the necessity of insuring the health of those who were educated in them. Mental culture was to @ certain sense impossible when physical culture and pure air were disregarded. In most primary schools the average of admittance lor pupils was as low as four years, He concurred with other competent judges, seven years to be the proper age, as a course of intellectual Spetning at ap eariler period pre- vented a proper physical development of the child. If the acquisition of knowledge was necessary so also was the aquisition of health. He then gave the Teasons and coMditions of development and non- development, and said an entire revolution in the intellectual and physical training of children in ey schools was imperative and necessary. te would have the division of timoumodified so as io. msure saMfcient breathing of pure air and physical exercise. Children were detained too long in school, even during hours of employment. In some primary schools there was no recess in the fore- noon, He foie ‘ive thirty minutes to each class, or at most one hott, and the remaining portion to —- exercise in the hot season. he necessity of spacious playgrounds was obvi- ous, and every primary school should have them attached, in order that the pupils ma; enjoy spontaneous . recitation and indulge native amusements which were most agrec- able to their tastes, and hence most benclicial to their health. ‘Some schools had not suMcient light or the windows ‘so poorly arranged as to in- jure the gightof the pupils by a division of its re- ection, With this want was also associated tnat of a scantiness in ventilation, which resulted in grave injurtes to the eee ‘by giving an oppor- turfity for the fnerease of carbonic’acid to a teniold extent, and . thereby injuring the pupils’ health. He would the suggest adoption of @ sanitary corps in nection with the Board of Education, and expressed his hope that the,opinion of medical men would soon find support and weight in the educational depart- ment of the city. He urged several precautionary pleas against ingress pnd. Bro ress Of contagious diseases, and terminated his discourse by showing Wednesday morning on a visit to our city, left yes- terday afternoon for Boston. In the morning most of the members went up to the Central Park, and made observation of the beauties of that place, Qthers roamed about the City to sée ail that Was to be seem, “At a quarter before four the company formed in line inthe hall of the Grand Central Hotel, where they had been stopping, and, while doing so, Gilmore’s famous band discoursed sweet music to the appréciative spectators, A few minutes after four the cadets marched out of the hotel, and were joined by mem- bers of the Twenty-second and Ninth regiments. ‘The procession then moved down Br Met in the following order:—First, a platoon of police; the drum corps of the Twenty-second the Ninth Tegiment band came next, and behind were com- panies B and D of the Twenty-second and a com- pany of the Ninth regiment. Following these were the cadets im two cqlumns, beaded by Gilmore's Band. The procession turned at Chambers street and marched by the City Hall, where the Mayor stood, hat in hand, to see the cadets off. They proceeded on down to the Fall River line and marched aboard the boat to the strains of “Auld Lang Syne.” The members of the Twenty-second and Ninth regi- ments then assembled at the end of the pier, and at twenty minutes past five, amid deafening cheers from both sides, the Providence steamed on her way toward Boston. A OBILDREN'S FESTIVAL A children’s festival was held last evening at St. Thomas’ chapel, Sixtieth street, between Second and Third avenues, The chapel was nicely lit up and the walls were decorated with little banners of different colers, on which were such inscriptions as “Buds of Promise,” “Heirs of Life,” “Christ's Little Children,” &c. The children, who composed the Sunday school of the chapel, assembled at, hali-past seven P. M., and numbered about two hundred, whose ages ran from two years up, although the greater number were urder ten years. The entertainment consisted in singing, addresses to the chil- e Lea baal John J. Roberts, presiding. The Kev, Dr, Morgan, the rector, who was ex- pected to make an address, was unavoidably ab- sent, and in his stead the Rev. Mr. Curtis, lately arrived from England, made a few very apt re- marks, Mr, Nelson, the former superintendent of the Sunday school, next addressed them, The little ones then went in dnd had a good time among the strawberries, ice cream, cakes and other good things which had been provided for them. ‘The fes- tival broke up @ little after nine.

The “process of accusa- tion” against this gentleman had been going on for some.six weeks, when, on the 14th instant, Mr. Carrere was arrested on the mandatelof Dr. Fil gueiras, the Judge in charge, and taken to the quartel of police.) The next morning the Hon. Mr. Partridge came down from Petropolis, where he had been advised by telegram of the arrest;'and had a long interview with Mr. Carrere, bat no,| diplomatic steps were taken by him in the matter, as Mr. Carrere was well treated and the case was one to be decided in the ordinary Way by the Judicial authorities of the country in which he domiciled. However, by the end of ‘the week the advocate of Mr. Carrtre applied for @ writ of habeas corpus, which was conceded by Judge Gama, and on the following Wednesday the prisoner was set at liberty by an order from the fame judge, after having been a week in custody. Meantime the Commercial ‘Association ‘of Ria Janeiro, of which Mr. Carrere was a membér, held an extraor@inary general assembly upon the 20th, and by @ resolution, voted against by only one member, formally expelled him from his member- ship and from the Exchange, I understand that Mr. Carrere goes in this packet, ha¥ing transferred the agency of the New York packet line to Mr. Vaz, his assistant, PUBLIC PEELING, This affair has caused great excitement here.

At the same time he showed himself adverse to the pretensions of the ecclesiastical authority to act independently ol the civil power, and the Minister of Justice has since animadverted strongly on such pretensions, and declared the supremacy of the civil over the ecclesiastical power, prsonding, to the constitution and practice of Brazil.

The concession covers the whole seacoast of Braztl, that the company can join on at the North and South with lines trom other countries, such as the River Plate system and that being laid irom the West Indies to Demerara. The government land lines are pro- gressing, and the communication between Per- nambuco and the South of the Empire should be complete by the end of this year. PROVINCIAL REPUBLICANISM AND REVOLUTION. The accounts from the Argentine Confederation show that the central government is somewhat more than a match for Lopez Jordan and his sup- porters in the Entre Rios revolution, and he has to take any town of importance, though said two thousand to nine thousand men. In Paraguay the negotiations of General Mitre remain ata standstill, the Parag government maintaining its resolve not to treat with him until the Argentines evacuate the disputed territory. The revolution continues, the insurgents holdin Villa Rica, and the Argentine government is sate to have sent arms and money to them, to enable them to overthrow the present government and establish one more favorable to the Argentine de- sire. Butthe Brazitians have still a small force at Asuncion, suMcient to protect the capital irom attack, and there is no doubt moral support at least is given to the existent government, NEWS PROM PARAGUAY. ‘The Buenos Ayres News of May 15 reports as fol- lows:— Our political news from Paraguay is of the most unreliable kind, and we can state littie beyond the mere fact that Cabaflerito is still in the fleld carry- ing on his operations inst the government, whtch is too weak to drive him out the coontry and he too ill ganiped to make any serious denion- stration against the capital.

A good deal of excitement has been caused here of late by the stringent measures adopted by Monsignor Frei Vital, Bishop of Peru, as regards the Freemasons, he having thought proper to ex- communicate all members of the Masonic traternities im this city who refused to abjure Freemasonry. ‘The Masons of this city are an influential body, both as regards position and numbers, and have not felt disposed to bear tamely the Bishop’s capricious edicts. The Jesuits have dropped in for a considerable share of the odiam attaching to the Bishop. In fact, ever since they founded a college here in 1867, by license from the ‘mperial Bragilian government, they have been objects of distrust and dislike on the part of the Pernambucanos generally. In this particular case the Jesuits are supposed to have been the Bishop's advisers. id On the 14th ins tant a public meeting was held to express sympathy with Dr. Ignacio Farias, Dean of Olinda, on his having been suspended by the Bishop, At the conclusion of the meeting the crowd, which was composed chiefy of the upper Classes, separated into two divisions, one ant | for the Jesuits’ College, which they entered an proceeded to demolish. Books were tern up, win- dows, tables, chairs, &c., smashed, and some of the priests got more or less roughly handied by the would-be rioters. At the time there were about fiity boys in the college under the teaching of eleven Jesuits, and directly they saw the work of ae going on each boy made straigit for “The second division of Freemasons went for the ofice of the Bishop’s paper, Called the Uniao, and made @ bonfire in the street of everything they could lay their hands upon, complete.y destroying Not the slightest rance was attempted either on the part of the civil or military powers, although the Jesuit College is ouly some filty yards from, the barracks’ of the Ninth regiment. ratiied with» the result of their raid on the college, the people next turned their attention to the Right Reverend Bishop, but on arriving at his Tesideace found thatthe President had’ placed there @ guard of soldiers. The;,crowd, not caring to encounter the military, promptly and wisely dispersed. THE AGITATION CONTINUED. Un the 16th inst. another meeting was convened by means of small placards pasted on the street corners, with the avowed intention of requesting the President of the province to mark a time for the withdrawal of all Jesuits from the city, a petition to the imperial government having been previously forwarded to the Emperor at Rio Janeiro making the same request. The callers of the meeting proceeded to address the crowd, which had collected in the Campo das Princezas, trom the baicony of the Gymnagjo Theatre, but were at once imterrupted by an officer, who requestea the crowd to disperse. This order not being at once comphed with, orders were given toa bugler to sound a charge, when about thirty cavairy soldiers, who had been kept mounted in readiness, dashed among the crowd, striking right and left with the flat oi their swords, The peopie did not seem to see exactly where the joke lay, and betook themselves off in a manner lar more rapid than dignified. The sol- diers, on the other hund. whowe principal occupa- tion hes in carrying a despatch from the President to the Chief of the Police, &c., seemed to consider it as the acme of “gh oid tun” to belabor an un- armed mob; and any one looking on could only re- ret that these valiant defenders of their country ad not occasionally some really active empioy- ment.

RESULTS OF THE MILITARY OPERATION, The zeal shown by sume of the troop was extra- ordinary, going to the iength of invading the siae- waik, and one poor wretch, st his dinner near the door of a restaurant, was attacked by the incensed soldiery. The casualties were rted as some- thing fearful, One man who sellaMottery tickets ‘was reported as dead but the next morning he was seen offering the big prize about the streets as usual.

The detectives went determinedly to work, and after a few days were successful enough to establish the headquarters of the under- current. Finding there were SEVERAL PARTIRS IN THE SCHEME of making money out of this plundered property, the officers separated one taking one individual hand and the other another. Yesterday morning it became evident thatone of the men being Jol- lowed was innocent of any wrongdoing, and the chase after him was discontinued. Lambert, how- ever, was not lost sight of for a moment, and he turned out to be remunerative prey.
