The points of dispute aro very few and may be roadily understood, The objection most Strongly urged is that married ladies who have children cannot attend to their domostic duties and to tho School besides, end the inconveniences which attach tothe retention of married teachers are said to be Apparent in some of the schools where married ladies have beea teachérs, Those who espouso tho cause of tho married ladies say that experience has shown that married teachers can discharge their duties fully as well as unmarried teathers, and the incon- venieuces referred to are of little or no account what- ever, as experience bas shown. There may have been, they say, 4 lew occasions when something occurred that mgght be considered as objectionable in a school room, but these were the exception and should not be considered in ACTING M. i LEWIS’ VIEWS. A Hewatp reporter yesterday cailed on acting Mayor “Lewis at the Mayor's oltice to get his views on the subject. Mr. Lewis was formerly a member of the Board of Education, {or some founor five years, and is thoroughly familiar with the school system of the city, He Was asked especiaily about the toeling in the Board, when he was a member, on the question of married teachers, und he replied :— “During my time as member of the Board of Educa- tion 1 never heard the question brought up for discus- sionamong the members, wither formally in mecuing or informally among themselves, For my own part, 1 always considered the question to be one which should be dealt with as the occasion required by the local school trustees. These gentlemen would be sure to be especially interested in the schoole in which their own children were being educated, apd would be likely to be attentive to all proper decorum on the part of the \eachers, married or single, It always seewed to mo that whatever apparent objection might be made by those seeking to object was always satisfactorily met by tho good sense and delicacy of the lady teachers themselves.” You seem inclined then, Mr. Lewis, to favor the non-exclusion of imarried ladies as teachers ?"’ “1 decidedly favor the non-exclusion of marriod ladies. 1 had not believed that the subject could have at all come up for discussion, and I was somewhat sur- prised to see the articles 1 the HekaLy showing the drift of the pew sentiment on the subject. Oue wodld imagine in Hearing the talk some people indulge in in regard tothis matter that the position of a school teacher 13 a sinccure. Now 1 know, and everybody ought to know, thatihis is pot so, Scbheol waching is a luborioas 1ife, and it ought to be especially borne in mind ‘that these ladies in nearly every instance have devoted all their earlier years to preparation to become school teachers, and they are fit Jor no other business. They coula not well attend to other work. Tueir minds and habits are trained for school teaching und that only. Now, no one, I think, ought to be so fuolish as to imagine that a young lady ‘when she marries will not be only too anxious to get rid of the drudgery of teaching u school. Surely she nas not been teaching for the love of teaching, but to support herself. 1 believe, ton, that young lady teachers are able to exercise the same amount of discrimination in getting a hus- band as other young Indies do, and that it ig only fair to presume that wnen they marry they will be supported by their husbands. ‘The facts prove this, There are between 2,000 and 3,000 femalo teach- ors in the city, and out of that nutabor there are only, 1 think, acoaple of dozen female teachers who are married. Do not suppose that the female teachers, when once they get a position under the Boura, re- main there for lie, They get married the sumo as other young Women do, although one would think, from “the controversy’ now going on, that they wanted to be wedded to teaching ‘as well as to husbands, which is contrary to com- mon sense.’ 80 far as my observation goes, all tho young lady teachers who got married wore only too glad to give up teuching, and they did so, Tam aware that a cases have occurred which were un- tortuuate, and I know of one or two instauces when it would have been absolutely cruel to deprive the lady of her place us teacher morcly because she bad got married, And now you come just tothe point. Ii in the majority of cases theso young ladivs get husbands Who aro uble to support them, aud who would not allow them to continuo at work in the sehoois, why legislate the unfortunate tew out of chance to muke a living? I betleve it has id that, the Board Is anxious, a8 it were, to give a warning to young men that if they marry school teacters they must kuow beforehand that there is no chanco of ever getting the young ladies to support them. That is Very sentimental. 1t supposes the young men to be irauds nd the yoang women to be fools. “I velieve in letung*well enough alone. You cannot wuch upon this subject to make any general law without doing gross injustice. The particular cases that might arise would be sure to require particular treatment, no mat- ter how you weuld set about making con- tupgent rules, The difficulty requires that there should be some supervisory authority, and I think the Jocal Board of Trustees in’ each ward’ the proper per- Sons to know about what oughtto bedone. It isa well known fact that the sebools presided over by married teachers aro some o! the most ably eonducted in the city. In cases where schools would be nogiected in consequence of marriage the same rules would apply which are eniorced when there is neglect trom any other cause, That rule, it seems to me, is all thatis needed. Legislation by the Board of Education on this subject would, in my Opinion, do no good, and would seem to point rather in the direction of doing harm.’ “Lt has been said there is danger that thi Lools might get ali filled wiih married Indy teachers, and that there would be some trouble iu getting them out’? “L have more faith in the young men of* this city than such a thoughtimplies. lt the idea is to make room for new teachers Il think it is the wrong way to goaboutit, As said already, the facts show that without any restriction at ail the number of marricd teachers 1 inconsiderable,”” VIKWS OF COMMISSIONER WEST. Commissioner West, a genticinan who has been tor a number of years identified with the common school m- terests of the city, and who isa member of the Com- inittes on Bylaws of the Board of Education, was yes- terday asked for his views. He said:— “This question 18 very difficult to settle with justice toevery one. There 1s Ho doubt that the inconveniences which are complained of should not be allowed to exist in the schools. Im my judgment a married lady, por- forming ber duties 4 mother, should not be a teacher; but 1am not opposed to the employment of married ladies as teachers in the schools, except in those cases where plainly the lady ‘should be at her homo instead of in the schoolroom. Some of the best schools we have are pre- sidea over by married ladies. oe polut I wish to make is this, that the teacher should not have any encumbrances. . A married lady, without young childron, 18 just us fit to be a school teacher us a single lady. Ing onthe Isut where (o draw the line in legisiat- abject in the Board 18 w diflicult thing to While married lacie: ould not be ex- chers, murried ladies under certain. con- ditions ought to be, and hence there must be lett a diseretiouary power in some authority to apply a rule that would 80 dictate. It is not to be presumed for @ moment that any one * wants to condemp marriage; the object sought for 1 to bave the marriage adaptable to our schools to accept it whi we can, and to exclude it where Nainly i interferes with the most efficient teaching. tis a delicate subject to treat, and requires serious consideration belore reaching a Dnai couclusion about MOF course the iadies at present employed in the schools would not be intertered with under any cireum- stances, Whatever rule may be determined upon will have reference only to the future. 1 do wot participate 1m any mawkish sentiment in regard to this matter, but 1 am clearly of opinion that in order merely to give employment to Married teachers tho business of the school should not be interrupted, I share the views of those who believe that at certain times mur- Tied ladies cannot devote their minds in the school room to the best interests of the children, and it is only in cusea like this that I would at all prevent a married teacher from holding « position under the woard, You will remember when 4 teacher gets excused from attending school the Bourd has got to pay for a substiv two Salaries being, therefure, paid jor the one position.” “It has boen estimated that, in the case of married ladies, leave of abseuce might be granted without sal- but with security of the position as teacher,’ Jonsideriug that tho wumber of married teachers is compuratively so smail it would perhaps seem to be a little harsh to retuse this, Butit you suppose such arulo to exist and thea that the number of married teachers would considerably increase you will see that the principle 1s not a good one. However, 1 am wihiug to go any length 10 meet tho aifficuity, and not only to suppose that we are bound to encourage mar- riage im every way, but to help the married school teachers where consistent with the protection of the seboois. We have to remember that tn this lite wo must take things as we dud thom, and the best we can do m the most likely to be right. 1am clear upon this that there must be some committee of the Board that will have futi power to deal with the particular cases ‘hat may arise.” Pla will be the recommendation of your eommit- too?” “Tho committee has as yet arrived at no conclusion. For my own part 1 see so mavy Teasons for and against the mooted. exclusion ot married lady teachers that I have net been able vo arrive 4% couciusion about the matter, What I bave said to you | moreiy threw out as the thoughts just then passing through my mind suggested WA your question; but as.to what recommendation we shall make I am'unablo now to give you any idea, 1 think there are very opposite views rea by some of the Commissioners, in the course of some further conversation Comrais- sionor West informed the HeraLp representative tuat the committee would not wueh upon the subject ia any way at the noxt mocting of the FEMALE TEACHERS, To thx Evitor ov THe HeRALDi— Mueh has been said and written in regard to the question now pending before the Bylaw Committee of the Board of Edugation—viz,, whether married ‘women shall continue tobe employed as teachers tf the public schools of this city? but the real point at issue so far has been but slightly touched. There can be nO reasonable objection urged against the employment of married women as school teachers in cases where the teacher is not burdeyed with child bearing or the care of small children at home; either of which must of necessity draw the attention of the acher from school duty to the more pressing cure of parental obligations, I will suppose a case, and such a one as frequently occurs. A young lady who is a school teacher marries, In a lew monutha thereafter that lady is no longer Ot for school duiy, Her heaith and appearance are such that the pri ft home is absolutely necessary for her comfort und safety. Whereupon she obsaing permission to be ab- sent from school for several months—generally from two to three, and on pay, on the scere of il! heaith, A substitute {8 appoimted by the trustees, wh under the - present bylaws of tI Board Education, ts paid out of the general fund; or, in other words, two teachers are paid for performing the duty of one, There are cases, however, where teachers lar advanced in pregnancy remain in sehool, apparently without shame or thougut ag to the propriety of so doing, disguising their appearance as best they can by a skilal arrangement of dress. Many teachers in ihe condition mepiioned have large or boys in their respective classes, most ot whom have a quick eye to reeive the true state of affairs without being told. ask in all cander if such @ teacher is a proper one te be pluced over pupils from ten to fifteen years of ago? It is this class of teachers that suould be driven out of our public schools, where they have not modesty enough to retire, Again, there are cases where the iniaut is brought te the class room during school hours and nursed by the mother teacher, and ite clothing adjusted in presence of the whove class, im the face of decency and good morals.

CHEAP CABS, HOW WE ARE TO BIDE HOME CHEAPLY AXD QUICKLY. _ Itis intended by the New York Cab Company that on or about the 1st day of January they will have running, in tho city of New York, 100 cabs, which will transport passengers {rom any point in the city where the cab is taken to any point where they may wish to alight. The rate of transportation will be fifty cents ‘an bour for all passengers, and it may be understood by this that the passengers will not have to pay for the timo which is taken by the driver im going back to the place where he took his fare from. The passenger will pay simply for the time from the start until he shall be delivered to his destination; but should the passenger ride trom any given point to be deposited at any given point be will have to pay for the fraction of an hour as well as ifhe engaged the cab for a whole hour; that is to say, filty cents an beur for ten minutes, five minutes, torty-tive minutes or even fitty-nine minutes. The New York Cab Company is not yet thoroughly organized and has not elecied its directors or officers. Onc hundred thougand dollars have been subscribed to the cupital stock up to last evening, and it 18 believed that the total sum asked for, $250,000, will be san scribed in a few days. A number of gentlomen whe have control of large amounts of capital are directly interested in the scheme to provide cheap cabs for this city. The horge railroad companies and a few dying or already detunct stage companies are doing thelr best fo oppose the scheme of cheap cabs The Cub Compuny will pay $150 to the drivers of cabs, with permission to make any extra pourboire time they may tind from good natured passengers, It culculated by the Cub Company that the entire cost of equipment and support foreach cab and driver, in cluding stabling and repaira, will amount to $4 80 per day, The plan of the Cab Company is that the men wha are now driving hacks and coupés in this city shall be permitted to take shares ot the stock of this company, each share representing $100. ‘The driver may ut tho start take o part of the share, ¥ Jow as $10, and he will be allowed pay the remaining $90 in two years’ time, This will enable any backman, however pressed he may be in circumstances, to tuldl the engagemont he may take up. One thousand cabs will be furnished to passong: by the company as quickly as they shall fina that tho people of New York desire to travel cheaply. The clock indicator will be placed in the front of the cab, and it will be setas the passenger enters the oub, so that there shall be mo mistake made by tho driver or passenger—intentionally by’ th driver or not intentionally by tho passenger. TI hour’s time will be marked by this indicator as he is taken up and as he leaves. Some objections have been made by the proprietors of hotels and of livery stables to the plan of the New York Cab Company, but it is not believed that their objections can hoid good in practice, One of the principar objcctiops is that the streets of New York are so badly paved and so very dificult to pass that 1 will be impos- sible to do the work as proposed by the Cab Company. To this the Cab Compuny an- swers that experienced drivers will obviate any difliculty that may exist, and that their own interests ‘wiil compel them to pick their way carefully, as if they were driving for th®mselves, and in addition that they will dr.ve as fast to catch a bout then as they do now, and will find their way tu @ train with the apeed fc which they are famous. New York city is nearly up to most of the capitals of Europe in everything but the matter of cheap cabs. For a shiliing in London a passenger may go in a cab as lar as he can go in this city at present for $1. At any street corner he may hail a cab, and there 19 no Gifticulty wnatever; but in New York there ts inveked at a inte hour a good deal of chullering, sometumes a good deal of supplicatiqn, and occasionally there is @ hittle blackguardism on the part of the driver. Bat by the system proposed there will be telegraphy, through the medium of the American Distriet Telegraph Com- pany, which will have its wires working so thats cab Inay be summoned by a tap trom any telo- graph, indicator or any other public — pluco, and ‘It i¥ estimated that there are 700 such places in the metropolis, The hackmen of the city do bot as yet understand the plan, but many of them are willing to take stock in the company as soon us itt oflicers are announced and when a suflicient number of cabs have n placed on the street to secure them a living, They are only doubttul on ono question, and that 18 summed up by their query, “Will it pay?” A hackmun at present, if he does not own his coach, is paid’ on the general average $10 a week. The Cab Company will pay him, they say, $1 50 pet day, with the prospect of increasing the wagas to $7 per day, as the number of cabs increase, besides givin; him the opportunity to be a stockholder. The presen equipment of the livery stable proprietors who ke hacks and coupés at hotels 18 48 follows, the cost be- ing given at the prices that they are enabled to furnish transportation :— COST OF EQUIPMENT. Hack carriage Coup Horse Driver per week wom? ae Cost tor fe uu Stabling per month. i Fi Repairs for barsess and painting per month. . 1 he New York Cab Company will, they declare, be enabled to procure equipment at twenty per comtiowe” Fate, A PLEA FOR CHEAP CABS. To rue Evitor ov THe Heratp:— Will the cheap cabs induce the stage proprietors te pay a little more attention to the conduct of thelr drivers? ‘Twould be a sweet boon. To illustrate: Tuesday evening, between six and seven o’elock, stage No. 2, of Fitth avenue line, was overtaken and, by three other stages of the same line bet ‘Canal and Tenth strects, and was twenty-five minutes in going from the City Hall to Fourteenth street. A nts go who protested against tho loss of timo, was insulted by the driver. Here ts a chance for REFORM. A SAD CASE OF DESTITUTION. About two months ago Mrs. Maria Doran, her hus- band and three children moved into two rooms in the roar of No, 14744 Franklin strect, and paid $3 as an instalment of the rent, it being all tho cash she had in the world, Three weeks subsequent to her arrival here she was delivered of twins, and afew days afier they were bora her husband deserted her and went home to Scovland, Jeaving her worse than @ beggar, with five helpless children. The little babies were 80 weak and delicate that her whole time was taken up in nursing and caring for them, and she could not or oviain means of subsistence, Things have been going from bad to worse, and a few days ago Mrs. Doran, with two dying babes at het breast, was cited to appear at eourt to-day and answer why she sbould not be dispossessed from the rooms she occupies, Her landlord, wealthy aad scoina to have no regard for her pitiable condition, she 18 om the verge of 5 and will oe to work, but cannot leave ber dying intants.
