THE NATIONAL DRILL A FAILURE THE COLORED TROOPS SHOW UP NCBELY. THE RECORDER OF DEEDS OFFICE. WHAT THE OUT COME WILL BE. DR. FRANCIS AND THE HIGH SCHOOL. HE UNDERSTANDS HIS BUSINESS. THE NEW CIVIL SERVICE RULES &c. The National Dnill which has j occupied the week, has been the worst military event in the his- tory of the American people. From all parts of the country, we have noticed a non representative class of people and have no doubt been convinced that the city of magnifi- cent distances is the paradise of associating with grays, and the blacks come in for their part of military 1ecognition which they have received in common with other crack organizations. There seems to be a fraternal feeling and brotherly union among them, which is evident that race preju- dice is being abolished. THE RECORDER OF DEEDS office is agitating the public mind. What the outcome will be we are unable to decide at present nor are we at liberty to give the full particulars or the causes that have made this disruption. We stall say this much how- ever, that there is a deep laid couspiracy in the House of Den- mark, which will likely result in the King being , exposed or the overtrow of the House of Lancas- ter. If Iago can play his part in the second act as well as the first, be will be given a medal of bon- or.

Frances | Seems to have the right idea as to | tha government of our public schools. * THE COLORED HIGH SCHOOL. Dr. Francis, from the special committee to whom was referred the resolution relative to the transferring the High School of the seventh and eight divisions from the Minor building to the Sumner building, reported a recom- mendation that no action relative to a change of location of the school be taken ; also, on account of the rapidly increasing numbers ia the High school, aud the very crewded space occupied by it, that the lower grades now occupying a part of the Miner building be pro- vided with accommodations else where, and the whole of the build- ing be given up to the use of the Minor Normal School and the High School. The recommendation was adopted. THE HIGH SCHOOL COURSE. Dr, Frances offered a series of {resolutions as follows, which were referred to the committee on high and normal schools: That the High and Normal school committee, with the super- jintendents and principals of the High and Normal Schools of this ty, be hereby constituted a com- whose duties shall be as follows: 1. To consider the expediency of lengthening the course of study for the High Schools of this city to four years, the curriculum of which shall be such as will, at least, prepare its graduates for entrance into the collegiate de- partment of the best approved colleges and universities of the country. 2. If, upon consideration, such a change is deemed advisable, then said committe is hereby author- ized to begin immediately the preparation of sucha course of study for said schools as will at least equal that of the best aprov- ed preparatory and high schools of the country. 3. After having decided upon this conrse of study, said commit- tee is hereby requested to consid- er and present its views upon the question; whether the pupils who desire to pursue the study of the theory and art of teaching shall be allowed to branch off from the third year for entrance into the Normal School, or shall be com- pelled to finish the entire High School course before entering into their preparation for teaching.” THE MINER NORMAL SCHOOL. Dr. Francis, from the special committee to whom was referred the question of increase ofthe num- ber of pupils to be admitted into the Minor Norinal School, made areport recommending the fol- lowing: “That until otherwise authoriz- ed, the pupils to be admitted in any one year from the High School of the seventh and eight divisions into the Minor Normal School shall not exceed forty in uumber, five of whom may be males. Further, that when+he number so admitted from avy one class of the High School is less than 40, then the difference in number may be desig- nated upon the recommendatiou of the principal of the High School the superintendent and local com- mittee fur admission into the com petitive examination, from the list of applicants for entrance of the | previous year.’ The recommenda- tion was adopted. The transfer of the High Schoo to the Minor building where. the Normal School is, is very com- mendable. Dr. Francis recom- mendation to lengthen the course of study in the High School is | just what should have been done years ago. The board should also adopt a rule, after pupils shiall have grad- uated from the High School under Dr. Francis resolutions, that said graduates be given certificates to teach. Weare of the opinion that after pupils have served four years in the High School they should be given a certificate of teachership or allow them to re— Inain in the High School three years and takea Normal course of one year in the Normal School. All the pnpils should be allowed to graduate or not at ail. CIVIL SERVICE rales have compelled clerks in the departments to hunt up their books What the effect will be no one knows but those who have inan- gurated these new rnles. Fred.

A man iu his lifetime plays many parts. He plays his own and that of others. He who plays too many parts, is often detected in them. When one is warned of danger and insists on going into it, he should suffer the consequences thereof. Danger isa thingin which we are all likely to enter. Always take a friends advice. Always know your man before you confide in him. Never write a letter that a third party canuot read. Letters are dangerous things es- pecially should your wife get hold of them. That depends on, whether they are from a female. He who laughs last, laughs best. Dan Chew and Fred. Douglass Jr.‘ will laugh last. Shake not your angry looks at me, it was not “I that did it.” We often do things that we re- gret. Never insult a stranger, because you know not when you will ask a favor of him. We don’t often konw when we have a good thing. We often look out for our own interests to the detriment of our friends. It is very easy to make a prom- ise but it is very hard to falfil it. He who makes a promise and doesn’t keep it, is worse than a knave. Alex. Hamilton makes a good president of the Sunday Schvol Union. J.B. Devaux is the happiest man in town. The Cadets looked well.
