The condition of our School Board is areproach to the city, outside journals saya disgrace. If a class of boys behavedin with an Hf-inannered and outrageousstyle, under tlie ancient regime, the peda-gogue's arm who governed them wouldbe sorfc aud the supply of birches re-yuired woe id strip a small forest. Wethink the best thing for their own repu-tation would be to resign in a body, andif ike Council should pass a resolutionrelocating them to do so, we are sure itwould be a popular movement with thecommunity generally. We do not mean

The Democrat was striking at Mr.Hardenbergh because he did not preventthe building of a new barge office for theNew York Custom House, which that

A Wt)MAFS ROMANCE.A. woman of medium height aud of & sligbt-
Iy built form, with a pleasant face, stronglytinctured with m&aculiuity, especially in thofirm, determined jaw, and the square chin, soindicative of inflexibility and persistency ofpurpono ; a complexion which, without beingOu&rte, lisa lost UH feminine sotiuo^s; a pairOf Bteely gray glittering eyes that bespeakiudomiuble gturuuees of will that no daugercould tarn from its aim—such was the ladywith whoni"an ''Evening Post" reporter con-vcfBbd yeslefdaf. lot, With all these traits,there wag no obtrusive personality percepti-ble in her appearance, nothing to deuute aparetraa (trance and roiuautio as any everp>rtrsyed by that iugeuioua prince of mar-v#Uajju fiction, Dumas pere. A quiet, uu-d-mougtrativo ladylikenegsof demeanor ohar-•aterized all tier actions. NJ one to gazeUpon her would have imagined that she was awoman whoso life bad been passed entirelyoat of the old ruts of feminine existence.O-ie would scarce have dreamed that thid was* modern Joan of Aro. Yet such is Mme.
Jufuiita VeUzauez, to whom the fore-deioription alludes.
During the war she assumed masculine at-tire and received a commixe'ion an first lieuten-ant in the Confederate army.
Bat to begin at tho beginning. Mme. Velaz-quez, Alias LituU-uatit Harry T. Buford, ofthe S)Uthern army, is descended from theold Spanish family of that uamo. H»r fatherwas a uativ i of Cirtagt-na, iu Spain, and hertoother wal th<j daughter of a French navaleffloor by an American lady. In 1840 herfather was appointed to an official position inCuba, and two years later Mum. Vulitzquez,the sixth aud last child, came into the worldirt a h(iiiB>3 iu the Guile YelaggAs, near thewaiU of the Cit*' >f Havana, oil the 2&ih ofJune, 1343, an., the 'little stranger' wag(•in istyueil Loreta Jnauita. When Lorata hadnearly attained the age of oue year, herUther ft 11 beir to a Urge estate in Tei»g,which at (hat time formed part of Mexico.Accordingly, be resigned his poiitiou at auemploye of the Spanish Government in Cuba,auJ in 1844 removed with his family to SauLais PotOoi, in Central Mexico. In 1849.I, ireta was sent to New Orleans to ber ma-teriul mot, Mme. B., Bne Esplanade, to beeducated. While there Bbe fell desperatelyiu lore with an offioer in the United Statesarmy, aud aa she had been betrothed againutber will to a young Cuban, Lireta was deter-mined not to marry the latter, and gave thefliat proof of her inflexibility • f purpose in-eloptog with the American officer and becom-ing bis wife despite the parental displeaa-ure. Her* husband remained in the regulararmy until the war broke oat, when heespoused the cause of the Confederacy andWas duly commissioned in the Southern army.Lireta was an enthusiastic champion of the8 mthern States, and such was her ardor that«lia at length oommuuicaied to ber husbandher resolution of donning mau's attire andprocuring a oommiaeion. He attempted todioeuada her, bat bis remonstrances were ofBO a Tail; so he at last reluctantly acquiesced.H«r traugformation was oomplete, and abeuiit appears on the scene as Htrry T. Ba-lord, first lieutenant of the IndependentMouuttd Scouts. By some moans she pro-
, "cured her oommiBgion from the Governor ofArkansas, dated May 28,1861.
.8 lortly alter tills her husband was killedtoy the accidental explosion of a carbine aPettB&eula, Fla., and sbe became" a widowMo OHO now knew the secret ot her sex, ex-cepting her banker at Memphis, who trans-acted alt her bnainesi iu Mi xioo aud thicountry. Toe first enRagimout iu which sbteak' part, and the first time she was uudeflee, was at tba battle of Bull Buu, when ahgerrtd ir General Longstreefs corps. Gen.Evans, belter Known as " Shanks," - u herB»xt enmtnander, and during ber serviceunder him «h» participated in the battle o
Leeebnrg, wheti she rtooivftd her second" baptiam of fire." Shortly afterwards sue«vaH tiansfurnd to the Army of Tennessee,tinder the command of General Johnson. Atth* battle of 8hiloh, while engaged in herperilous duly as a scout, sbe was wounded inthe shoulder by the explosion of a shell. Shewas taken to a hotel and tended by Dr. Byrd,who, of course, discovered ber sex. Dr.Sharp, another pbyttcian, was also called inby Dr. Byrd, but botb of them scrupulouslyrespected her secret. An soon as sbe wasable she was transported to New Orleans,wlu re the pti; sioiau in attendance, Dr. Stone,also discovered that she was a woman. Healso maintained a rigorous sileuce with re-gard to the matter. N.iw Orleans waa soonafterward captured by Gen. Butler. Mme.Velazquez now assumed female attire andacted as a spy for thu Confederacy. GeneralButler, however, discovered her machination*,aud she was arrested, tried and sentenced,but released through the intervention of theBritish authorities. Sbe then went sack intothe service, agaiu donning male costume.She bad not, however, entirely reoovered fromthe tfffocta of the wonud occasioned by theexploding ahell and waa sent to the hospital.Here, of course, concealment of her sex wasout of the question, and on the 26th of July,1863, her true character was revealed.
The news spread through the camp, and asa oons?queuce she waa compelled to leave theregular service. She tbeu went north toWashington, and waa engaged in the secretservbe of the Confederacy. She made herappearance at the capital as the widow of berdeceased husband, and secured a position aa" silent attache" to Colonel Baker, Chief ofDetectives of the United State*, and waa thusable to furnish valuable and important in-formation to her friends in the South. Mme.Velazquez next became involved iu financier-ins intrigue*, and from the winter of 1863 tothe elof a of the war she was busy traffickingin Northern and Southern bonds and gtooks,and during that period made nine trips toEurope. In 1865 ber brother accompaniedber to Europe, where she remained until thefall of 1886, when she returned and went on atour to South America. From 1866 to 1869she passed all her time exploring and travel-ing iu the South American republics, inplud-ing Cuba and the West Indies. Iu 1869 (hereturned and went to California, where abewaa married a second time. Since that timesbe has been engaged on ber work, " Womenn Battle," which is her autobiography.
Lvst year she again visited the capital, andbaa been before the Congressional comruit-tteg from October last, urging with all herpower measures for the development of tradewith Brazil. Sbe is devoting her faculties andtalents now to thia aoheme, and expresses berbelief that the day la not far distant whenthe balk ol the Booth American trade will becarried on by thia country. Sbe believea thatin a decade tbe'e will be direct railroad com-munication through Mexico and CentralAmerica to the Empire of Dom Pedro, andabe is energetic and untiring in her advocacyof the importance of these commercial con-quests. The following extracts from her au-tobiography will give an idea of how ahemanaged to avoid detection in man's attire:
"My coiits were heavily padded In the backand under the arms to the hips, until I reach-ed New Orleans. Tbis served to disguise rayshape, but the padding was very unoemforta-ble, and I soou made up my mind that Itwould never do for a permanent arrangement.So aoon as I got to Orleana I went to an oldFrench army sailor in Barrack street, who Iknew waa very skillful and who understoodhow to mind his own buainess by not bother-ins too much abont otber people's •affaire,and bad him make for me half a dozen finewire net shield*. Taese I wore next to myakin, and they proved very satisfactory inconcealing my true form, and in giving mesomething the shape of a man, while theywere by BO meane uncomfortable. Over thesbMdt I wore an underskirt of silk or Utsls
thread, and which Waa helj} iu place by strapsacross the eheet and sbouldera afmllar to theshoulder-braces some times riorajby men. Agreat many officers in the Confederate armyhave aeen the impression of the strapsthrough my shirt when I had my coat oil, andhave supposed them to be shoulJtr-braoes.These undershirts could be rolled up into thesmall compass of a collar box. Around thewaist ef each of the uuderahirta wan a bandwith eyelet tuples arranged for the purpose ofmaking the'* waiftbaud of my pantaloonsstand out to the proper number of inches, Awoman's waist, aa a general thing, is taper-ing, and her bips very large iu coinpariaonwith those'of a man, «o that if I bad under-taken to wear pantaloons without sumo suchcontrivance they would have drawn In at thewaist and revealed my true form. With suchunderwear as I used any woman who can dis-guise her leatures can readily pass for a man,and deceive the ologeat observers. So manymeu have weak aud femiuine Vuic.a that,provided the clothing is properly constructedand put on right, and the disguise in otherrespects is well arranged, a woman with evena very high pitch of voice need have very lit-tle fear on that score. Oue of the print palcauses of my deteotion after, having aacooae-fully passed myself off aa a mau to thousandsof keen-eyed observers, rinder circumstanceswhere everything waa agaiuat the conceal-incut of jny sex, was tbat my apparatus gotoat of order so that I waa forced to dispensewith it. I wag to blame, too, for growingcareless, and not always being on my guard.There were several points aboojt my disguisewhich were strictly my own invention, andwhich, for certain good and efficient reasons,I do not care to give to the public Theseadded greatly to its efficiency. - Indeed, afterI had ODC8 become accustomed to male at-tire and to appearing before anybody andeverybody in it, I lost all fear of being found
Sut, and learned to act, talk and almost[jink as a man. Many a time when in camp
I have gone to sleep when from fifty to sixtyofficers have been lying close together wrap-ped in their blankets, aud have had no fear ofdetection." -, ' •
She also wore a moustache and imperial.Iu describing to the reporter the modusoperand! of fixing these hirsute appendages,ahe said she took the hair between ber finger aaud by a dexterous manipulation, after cover-ing her upper lip aud portion of her chinwith some specially prepared imported Frenchmucilage, applied it to her akin and it wouldremain iu position. The mouataohe aud beardwould not be removed except by the applica-tion of alcohol or ammonia, and would weartwo or three weeka, not being in the leasthurt by \ier ablutions. At the end of thattime sbe would generally remove it and applyfresh capillary ornaments, Mote. Velazquezis now in the city, and intends making it herheadquarters for some time.
Mme. Velazquez is five feet fire and three-quarter inches in height, and weighs 139pounds. When ahe was a lieutenant in theConfederate army ber weight was 159 pounds.—[St. Louis Evening Pott.
