He had picked the feathers fr6m one of the partridges, and placed it on the outer tadge of the window with a satisfied grunt, when, lo! all at once a hawk flew down from one of the tall trees near by, and bore off the plucked bird Master Monkey was very angry. He shook his fist at the hawk, which took a seat on one of the limbs not far off, and began to eat the partridge with great relish. The owner of the chateau saw the sport, for he was sitting in a grape arbor, and crept up to watch the end of it. The monkey plucked the other partridge, laid it on the ledge in the same place, and hid be- hind the window-screen on the inside. The hawk was caught in his trap, for, when it flaw down after the partridge, out reached the monkey and caught the thief. In a mo- ment the hawk's neck was wrung, and the monkey soon had the hawk plucked. Tak- ing the two birds to the cook, the monkey handed them to him, as if to say. "Here are your twopartridges, master." The cook thought that one of the birds looked queer, but he served them on the table. The own- er of the house shook his head when he saw the dish, and, telling the cook of the trick, laughed heartily. •«•»> . . .

AND FOR THE DIGNITY OFOUR SCHOOLS. LET THEREBE AN INVESTIGATION.

The lust litlle misunderstanding of theSchool Board was, as usual, productiveof much merriment to the audience anda pitched bailie between the membersThe subject of discussion was the char

'ncter.of the l.idy Principal of-No. 'AM-hotil, whose cause was ably championedby Messrs. Million anil Havens, withTrustee K'err leading I he opposition. Ason former occasions, tin; question was notdecided, ami an attempt to discover themistakes or irregularities'of the accused ing to the usual fraud and trickery oflady, and the more strenuous endenv.oi.s i Republican leaders, wliicu Was pructiccdto prove that none existed, -esulte.! invain, and only tended to call forth it dis-play of very bad blood. The questionat issue remains as heretofore. MissCunningham has neither been convictedor vindicated, and at present occupies averv unenviable position, due mainly tothe interference of her friends in theBoard,. No objections can be consist-ently offered to Mr. Krernan's calling theattention of his cvnfreivi) to this matter,nor should it be construed by any meansas a personal issue. lie is one of theschool representatives of the FourthWard, and it is in his ward that thealleged irregularities hive been jtrae-ticed. It in more the affair of eitherof the Fourth Ward Trustees than ofany other, and they must take cognizance,even of rumors when they are so fre-quent and of such a serious nature; be-sides coming, as they do, from the mostreliable sources.

We know considerably, of this Cun-ningham ease—that is to say, we havereceived much indirect information re-garding the lady's eccentricities (to use amild term), and it really requires theextreme of charity on our part to pre-vent a full expose. We are inclined toawait the action of the, School Board,who must do their duty iu this case be-fore \ e give our verdict.

We, none the less, feel that in beingcharitable to the lady we are decidedlyunjust to the public and wanting in astrict performance of a duty which, inthe present instance, should be para-j admitted iu his favor and loan himself to

An "Old Maids'" Leap-Year Party.

Th» leap y«ur pafty given hy several'young lad-es of the Hill to their gentlemanfriends, at Delker's Academy of Music, onWednesday even ins, was a very delightfulafftiir indeed, and productive (if niueh genu-ine merriment, owing to the f ctof the ladiesassuming the ix>'e of the ' ' gallant " for thisoccasion only. A iiumlier of the most prom-ineut aud settled .bachelors of tbe .Hill andtbiis city were among tbe guests, and weremade to f«el |ierfeetly at ease. Even t boughit wan a le p ye«r party, as far a* we eanlearn, no advantage of this privilege wagtoken by the very sociable and efficient corpsof female managers. In tbe grand march atleast 75 couples took part, under the- leaderHbi|i of Mr. John Ueayer, of the Bachelors'(Jluh, and Miss Kate Neuscheler. Thesupper prep tred hy tbe Indies was the greatfeature of the afftir, and to all appearanceswas lully appreciated by the hungry, y«th«ppv, guests. Mr. Smith, who presidedover the feast, in response to numerous callsfor a speech, arose and after highly complinientiiijj ths entertainers on the success oftheir first attempt, very delicately suggestedthat to his mind there would be fewer bach-elors if there were only more such women asfin and his friends had the pleasure of associ-ating with on the present occasion. He alsobelieved that be could not long resist suchattractions, and would be forced to surren-der if such very happy gatherings were alittle more fr'Cjuent. Miss Maggie (ruthspoke for her S'de, aud called forth muchlaughter by the candid statement that indeedit was not the choice of her sex that oldmaids ever existed, and while she or herfriends admitted no such", charge, yet eventhe young misses were far too numerous, andthis could only ()e charged to the sternersex. The supper hour passed pleasantly, in-terspersed with speech-making, toasts, sing-ing and witticisms, i.'ter which terpsichofeheld full sway until daylight.

Among the guests ••• n<iue<».l tbfi MissesMorris and Misses Alts. Coroner Parslowand Mr. John Oeayer, of this city, the lattertwo " big chiefs" in tbe " l.achelur tribe;' 'the Misses Earnesttin, of Harlem; Miss BelleMalcolm and Miss May Moslem of NewYork; Mr. J. V.

Too Officious.

There is a very officious character in theemploy of the Ferry Company as gatemanknown as Thomas Bartell, who presumes,owing to being a favorite with the Superin-tendent, to perpetrate many ridiculous ifnot meanly acts. His latest exploit was adastardly assault on a delicate little newsboy,on Wednesday evening, whom he knockedabout in front of the ferry house, and onlydesisted When the attention of some gentle-men were attracted to his base conduct. Heclaimed the boy was selling papers insidethe gate, which was .false. Mr. Bartell isone of the " fresh importations " «nd go very"fresh" that it. would be to the creditof Captain.Chase to give his friend a fewlessons.

Took a Drop" Josh "' Allworth, manager at Weber's

Germania Garden, was practicing a difficultgymnastic feat behind the stage, on Wednes-day evening, when, as might be expected,he fell to the floor below, a distance of overfive feet. " Josh" escaped injury, but alarge shelf, containing several m sical instrurhents and beer glasses, which aecompanied him in his descent, were all more orless damaged. The victim good naturedlyexplained his mishap by exclaiming: " Idon't mind taking a drou myself, ye know,hut I do hobject to a 100 p >nud« of blarstedmusic following me hup."

The Euterpe ConcertThe oratorio of the "Lay of the Bell,"

given by the Euterpe Society at the First M.,E. Church, on Thursday evening, proved avery fitting celebration of the great poetSchiller's birthday. The sacred edifice wascrowded, standing room even being at apremium long before the hour announced.Judging from the success attending the firstproduction of Bruch's .exq isite work, arepetition would be in order.

Trouble in a Church.

|From Peck's Milwaukee Sun.]

There was the queerest scene at one of thechurches a few Sundays ago. It a- ems tbatduring tbe vacation tbe pews had beennewly varnished, and somehow the varnishwas terribly sticky. You know when youpull anything off of sticky varnish that itcracks. Well, the audience had all got seat-ed, when-the minister got up to give out tbehymn, and as the basement of his trouserslet loose of tbe varnish of bis chair therewas a uoise like killing a fly on tbe wall witha palm-leaf fan. Tbe minister looked aroundat the chair to see if he was all present, andthat no guilty man's pants had escaped, andread the hynin. The choir rose witb asound of revelry, and after the twior hadswallowed a lozenger, the bass had coughedup a piece of frog, the alto ahemmed and thesoprano had wiped her nose and shook outher polonaise to see if tbe varnish showed ontbe south side of her, the audience began torise. One or two deacons got up first, withsounds like picket firing in the distance, ontbe eve of battle, and theu a few more gotup, and tbe rattling of the unyielding varnishsounded as though the fight was becomingmore animated, wben tbe whole audiencegot on its feet at once witb a sound of ratt-ling musketry, and the choir sung " Holdtbe Fort." Everybody looked at the vulner-able part of everybody else's clothes. Ladieslooked mad to tbink tbat their dresses werespoiled, one man grabbed bold of tbe waist-band of his pants convulsively, and the opin-ion of those behind him was that tbe varnishhad pulled so hard as to break a suspenderand be was frightened over what might hap-pen. When tbe orchestra had concluded thepeople sat down gingerly on one edge andthe services were short, and all went homepraying for the painter that painted theseats.
