After playing in Cincinnati the Inquire give them the following complimentary notice: Last evening, the Rentz Minstrel Company gave an amusing and en joyable performance at the Grand opera house. The house was pack ed, and this lact indicates that all must have been expecting an extra ordinary and unusually fine enter tainment. In this there could not have been a single spectator disap pointed, for while there was a mo.it laughable burlesque and a genuine variety of attractions, the entertain ment was in no sense a “ variety show,” Free from all objectionable features, such as slang and vulgar ity, the company’s rendition of a tine program ot mirth and music was exceptionally entertaining to an audience largely composed of peo ple of good taste. As a burlesque combination, with some of the best novelties given upon the stage, die Rentz Minstrel Company is <1 gen uine success, and will alwayS re ceive a hearty welcome in this city.

The speaker’s main theme was the financial ques tion of .the day, and was illustrated very forcibly. He drew a graphic picture of the happy and prosperous c mdition of the people of England, ai the beginning 01 the reign of the J-nnce ot Orange, and in order to carry out his war schemes by acts of Parliament, how he raised money by issuing bods and then imposing duties on home productions and im ports, not for the purpose oi paying the bonds, but (or paving the inter est on ■ ! on The <i:< cr eh sed Ins excellent .i-ddress by giving his hearers a clear and satisfactory ex planation of the above question.

In venturing t> address you in this ptiMic man ner, Intrust you will do mre the jus tice to believe that it is notdonein any soirit of self laudation. I, as a friend o f ihe school, would speak to you, as fiiends of the school. Cndividuals are of but little account where the welfare of public institutions is at stake. In September, 1867, I,Look charge of the Batavia Union School with about iwo hundred pupils in attend ance, in a building most;sadly neg If-cted and dilapidated; *o-day the school numbers five hundred pupils, occupying a noble schodl building, second to none m the State in the complrtKness of all its appointments; the district is out of debt, and no school in Western New T^oik has a hi«her reputation forthor-ougb train ing and good scholaisbip*. Having witnessed this growth and been identified with the school through it all, and having given to tbe school thirteen of the best years of my life, years of earnest, faithful work, the defects of which none can be nv'te cons iuus ol tlu.io in,self, ■(.still it was my best); rt is but nat ural, that the school and its inter ests, should fill a large portion of the horizon that bounds my view; that it should hold a warm pLace in nty affections. This must b*e my apolo gy for thanking you for t he splendid manifestation ol your deep interest in its welfare, and the unmistakable evidence you have given of the esti mation in which you hold the school, ,-?nd your stern determination to de fend and maintain all that pertains to its welfare. I hi^ irsuiifestation cvf your regard for the school has done the school itself great good. The pupils are prouder atian ever of their school, their respect and love for iheir teachers has been strength ened as they have heard the school and its affairs discussed at home and upon the streets. From the teachers a £ri;at load ■f > anxiety and uncon.inn ha* nei-n removed. They now feel that thuy have the respect and suiapathy ihe community in their ab\»';: that their work, with all its dignity and re sponsibility, is not viewed in the same light as that of the mere day laborer for wages. The:y are there fore cheered and encouraged to go forward with the work, fully deter mined to make the preheat the most successful and prospero us year the school has ever known, To the ladies and gemtlemen, who by their ballots last Wednesday f bowed their confidence in, and re gard for the school, we believe the assurance, that in so doing they have lightened and sweetened the labor of the teachers for all the coming year, will be most pleasant, and for this reason, as well as for our own gratification, I lor myself, and in their behalf also, tender you our most sincere and hearty thanks there for.
