V. Smith, President of Board of Education The undersigned members of the Board address you, and through yon the Board itself first, of tho non attendance of members at its stated meetings but second, and more particularly, of tho regular habit of many in leaving the Board without a qunriu and this at an early hour, and often before tho huslnesB of the evening has been half completed. The consequence is that very Important matters are neglected to the great injury of the schools under the care of the Board. It has been observed that certain members almost always rcmnin until the adjournment, while other members almost invariably leave before the adjournment. It Is to he honed that the subject being now presented and the evil pointed out, members will in future come prepared to remain willingly until the business is completed and the Board shall adjourn.

Should tho Board think proper to take action for the correction of the evil, and we submit that such action is entirely within itspower we trust it will be applied, if considered necessary, rather than the cause of Education should be allowed to suffer. Respectfully yours, E. W. Dunham, Edward Anthony, Boht. M.Whiting, Jr.

G. Bergen, James Howe. Brooklyn, July 7,1659. The following resolutions were offered in connection with the above Itesolved, That when a member desires to leave he shall rise in his place and ask permission of the chair, which it shall be discretionary with the presiding officer to grant or withhold, hut if objection bo mude, it shall not be granted without an affirmative vote of the Board. Itesolved, That it shall be the duty of tho Secretary to report to tho Common Council quarterly the names of the members leaving without such permission, and accompanied with a copy of this and the preceding resolution.

Resolved, That the Secretary cause a sufficient number of the two preceding resolutions to be printed under the direction of the Com. on Supplies, and one copy sent to every member of the Board. Adopted, and the following committee appointed by the chair Messrs. Baylis, P. G.

Bergen and Kclsey. The order of business where interrupted at the adjournment of the last meeting being tjw consideration of the report of the Teachers' Com, was taken up and the report adopted Mr. Dunham of the Finance Committee observed that the committee had made a statement to the Mayor as to tho amount of school moneys to be raised. He did not think it necessary to read the items, but bo wished it put upon tho record. So ordered.

Mr. Anthony called attention to a discrepancy in the estimate of the Joint Board for school purposes. The sum of $2,000 was Inserted where the estimate was BESOLUTIONg. By Mr. Phelps Directing tinted.

By same Authorizing Vacation of the Schools from July 28 to September 25, Mr. Geo. Field amended that the raeation commence on Saturday of this week audond on the first Monday of September.

Mr. Howe thought they had been in tho habit of having too long vacations. Several genllemen advocated long vacations as necessary to the health of the children during warm weather. The resolution as amended was carried. By Mr.

Dunham Directing a hat and cloak closet to be made in Primary department of No. 13, and that the rear stairs leading to the male departments and blackboard be repaired during summer vacation. By Mr. Brinfcerliofr Thai the School House Committee be directed to have School House No. 28 repaired.

By Mr. Field Directing Teachers' Committee to prepare a list of Junior Teachers who have served in one capacity for more than tiiree years with the view of ascertaining who have entitled themselves to greater compensation.

Mr. Field urged the necessity of increasing the salaries of some of the female teachers, who had entered upon their duties when girls, but now since they had grown to womanhood, found the salary entirely inadequate for their support. Mr. Baylis thought that when they had grown out of their duties their positions should be filled by others. Mr.

Whiting said that if any of the Teachers bad not been promoted during several years service, it was time for them to quit. The resolution was adopted. By Mr. Nortlmp Directing School Houses to be whitewashed during vacation. By same Directing No.

Every person has his rights. Consequently, if parents have rights teachers have theirs also. The parent who wrote Monday evening wishes to know if we are physically eaker than our ancestors were, or if our over taxed brains require more recreation than theirs did First, I would tell him that our powers of endurance and the strength of our constitution is to he measured by the amount of pav we receive. This being so he will readily see whv we need a loneer re creation than New Tork teachers. When I tell him that for corresponding situations their pay is one third more man ours, wnue tueir ciasseB are not nan as large, If the the parent find it so hard to take care of one.

The Malpractice Case. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. Dear Sir I am more than convinced that the state ment made in your paper, relating to my treatment of Mrs Kinney, was published without your knowing the facts. I had no onnortunitv of nrmearincr before tho coroner's jurj in person, inougn i was men in custody, nan no vnt urasen exumineu in my ueuali, and the coroner refused mv counsel tho richt of renresentino' me before his iiirr. am informed that all this was contrary to law, and repugnant to my legal rights.

It is very easy for a few would be learned doctors, to give their scientific disquisitions against an unprotected woman before a coroner's Jury without her having the (uv.itri, i uniuuilHUllUr lid CUUa city as an accouchant.

I hope that any prejudice that may exist in this eouiurj nguinsi lemaiv accoucnauts will not militate against me. There are many countries in Europe where midwives are nroferred to doctors. The coroner umi to predicate his opinion of my guilt upon the fad, that there was too long interval between the delivery of the children.
