The announcement is made that in pu rsuance ! Of Secretary. Manning s policy to reduce ' the, force i of em ployees in his department wher e it could be done without detriment to tlie public interests ther- services of three hundred etore keepers, gaugers, etc, have been ; dispensed with since March, the averge per diem Of whom was four .dollars. Here is a consider able of a lopping off in the matter of expense which in the course of a year would amount to a large sum ., The Secretary has also made a reduction in the cleik force of his department; In the' other departments also there have been numbers of removals of unnecessary employees, many of whom . were holding- sinecures and drawing pay, for party services or as the favorites and hangers on of men who bad influence wiih past adminis trationg. -There is no' foolishness in 1 his administration when it comes to business, and no making of soft places when party strikers wilt be housed and fed at the public expense, with out rendering any equivalent for the money they, draw.' " - It is pretty well demonstrated by this time that the heads of tha re spective departments in Washington not only talk.reform but practice it, and that the government is to be run upon business principles pure and simple. ' At -the end of the present year when the balance sheet is struck and the expenses of running the ma- chine are shown in comparison with past administrations under Republi can regime,' the people will see the result in figures that speak for them selves. .

' RECEIPTS AND EXPENDITURES. "The receipts : of . the schools, as well as the expenditures, were about $600 less than the previous year. The salaries of. the othcers, teachers, and janitors were $8,600. All the other expenses of the schools, which include the yearly supply of wood and ; coal. the digging of a well for the colored school, furniture, stoves, school regis ters, erasers, crayon, brooms, lumber,; nails, lime, freight, drayage, repairs,, interest insurance, printing, and all the necessary incidental expenses,' amounted to only $800, making the total expenditures of the schools $9, 200. "$3,500 of this amount was realized from the special city tax for school purposes, $3,700 from the State; , and county school tuna, $ suu was donated by Dr J.' L...M. "Curry, from the Pea- body Educational Eund, $900 was left over from last year, and the remaind: or was received irom donations, school .exhibitions,: - and outside sources. ; ; ? t v . ' , '" . i -;i "It will be seen from the above stater ment that the expenditures for school purposes have; actually been -Jess than they ought to be. Economy is to be encouraged : but too close shav ing in educational, as well as in other affairs, is not to : be ; desired. T he schools have Buffered from the want of maps, 'globes, charts, and other supplfes, because the school fund, did not warrant their purchase. . ' ,t t HEALTH AND ATTENDANCE " ' "During the vear -that ' has iust ended.- the schools have been ; obliged ta contend with some sickness among the children 01 the city, which: has affected, somewhat, their - usually good attendance, me rules in i re gard to the care of th health of j the children; however, are thorough and strict, and they have been as : well protected from exposure as " they would have been nao they remained at' home. :,. r .iis iv'i Tardiness m tihe school has shown a most gratify ing decrease. This has been brought about by tne earnest efforts of the teachers and the praise-. worthy, ambition of the pupils.- By the cordial co-operation of the parents of the. children, this evil can be reduced to the minimum. - As a rule, the children attend school when ever they possibly can, and ' an in creasing love ior school and ail mat pertains to it. Is observable on all sides. " , -., -; . TEACHERS SHOULD IMPROVE." . "It has been the earnest deaire and constant aim of most of our teachers to acquaint themselves with the best methods of teaching. This is exactly right. t JNo teachers should be re-em ployed who do not keep posted in the literature of thier profession and do not show an earnest desire for self improvement. . If any school in the land is using better methods 'of in struction than ours, it is the duty of our teachers to find . them out and profic by the discovery. . . "It should be th duty of every teacher in the school to take advant age of the opportunity to attend the summer session of one of our State Normal Schools, and of these . who never taught, it should be demanded. "There is too much of a tendency on the part of young people everywhere, after obtaining a position, to rely up, on the influence of their friends to keep them -from losing it, rather than upon their own efforts to deserve, it. They are altogether too willing tL settle down into a life of inglorious mediocrity.; - The best teachers in our schools should be expected to be bet ter teachers next year than , now, and the new teachers," who ; do not post themselves in the theory and rac ice of teaching, - and seek to earn every real improyemet' in the profession, ehould be asked to make way for those who will.:. " THE FUTURE OP THE SCHOOLS " "The public school ' system Is a great corporation,, comprising large interests, and requiring great wisdom and ability for' the'; management of its affairs. It has its board of direc tors, its officers, and subordinate co workers, whose faithfulness and skill determine its character and useful ness,. Its stockholders are those who share its benefits in the education of their children, and the promotion-:of public interests.; ; Unlike many other institutions,;' its stockholders have," at all times, a free opportunity to in-, vestigate the methods of operation -adopted, to compute the. amount of profit they are deriving from , their investment; to encourage meritorious service, and to utter their protests against abuses,; The. future, of- this great enterprise," whether prosperous' or disastrpus,will most clearly de-: pend upon the intelligent, wise, and' vigilant action Of those most directly Interested in its success, a What the schools shall be, will be determined by ; what : the; people require ; and what they are willing to; contribute, to bring them up to a proper stans dard of excellence."

He' concludes by ; thanking 1 the members of the old board of commis signers for their uniform consideras tion and hearty - support, and ex presses ah earnest hope that the new board will continue to extend to him, in the discharge of all his duties, the same confidence and .thouehful co- operation - , ' C : FROfll WASHINGTON. . ?
