Meares Esq. ; snbnuUed- hhi ;an nual .report, '-from which we; glean the following items of general interest: ': ; Tbe numberpfpublic schools " tetfght in the county ..dTuring the 'school year ia twenty-three.: nine rsor ; whites andj four-' teen. for blacks. Tptal number ' of pupils enrolled 793 whites,' and,' 114d bbi&s; the average' aUendance wasi ! whites 5S3,v blacks-784i ty .-j 4 - ? The number oL children in the county pelween- the ages - of six.' and twenty-one females;: l,8Hi totaL 'ti,4Si; BlackW- males l,85rfemaks 1824; total, 4,179 A large number of children of .the school age atfehd private 'schos The number - Of teachers' institutes -held during lh? year! was sixteen. , . , , " . . ' . The Superintendent saysln bis report that the condition of the schools has im proved during the year, particularly - in Districto No. 1 and 2, (in the city). " There has been great awakening to J the impor-' tance of education among the parents of, pupils, and as a . natural consequence a great increase in both the . enrollments and - the average aUendance. . The' children seem anxious to attend school, tardiness, that bane of the school-house-, is fast being checked; and new, after years of labor; the committees and teachers; can compare're aults with cities boasting - the best educa tional advantages in their public schools. In the selection of teachers, the Superin tendent says, the ' most competent of those who have applied have invariably received the appointment. The teachers have been impressed with the sacredneaa of. their duties; that not alone are thejp develop the brain, but that their duties extend to that of the high callings ofy the missionary, - and that the moral development of the children is more important than that of the intellectual. - In risiting the sick children," and by keeping up constant intercourse, with the: parents, a lasting influence has' been attained,' the beneficence of which can only be appreciated by- those whose duties keep these great aims constantly in view".- Each of the four schools On the city), the Superintendent say s, are now literally over run with childreo. -In another year there. surely will not be standing room. Already some of the teachers have a daily attendance of over one hundred pupils.. .To meet this, great responsibility devolves;.nptm" the Educational Board, the committees and our citizens duties of the highest order which affect the prosperity of our city. The Heminway School (white) has no space left on the lot to extend the building; and besides, there is a deficiency against this school, with a certainty that this de ficiency will increase during the year. The Peabody School (colored) can be extended, and that "school has ample funds. The Union 8chool (white) la carried on in- a dilapidated building totally unfit for the school purposes of that district The sur plus to the credit of this school will be suf - ficient.to purchase a lot and commence a . building. The Williston (colored) Sjchool is in first class condition as to. a "building, and has over $1,200 to its credit In the country districts the results are good giving; general' satisfaction. Both races have good. buildings and competent teachers. There Is a pressing necessity for maps, books,-black-boards and other mate rial.; and it is recommended that the com mittees be allowed to supply these necessa ry articles to the extent of fifty dollars for each district, the sum so expended to be taken from or charged to the general school fund.--:- .. .., ' ' - -: " ' In conclusion, the Superintendent says: "I would impress upon our citizens the great the vital importance of fostering these schools. Thef aie the only avenues left open through which the children can be educated and fitted for those high duties which in a few years they will be called upon to perform. ' Our people, financially, are not able to avail themselves of other sources of education. It is, therefore, the duty of all to make them fit places, both inentaUy ( and morally. -Elsewhere, these schools have superseded, almost entirely; the private schools. .They have come to be regarded, and justly so, ai part of our great republican institutions.; They; are; essen tially democratic in their form and tenden cies, and, as such, under proper manage? ment better calculated to imbue children with those high ideas of independence, the proper appreciation of the blessings of liber ry, and a firm determination to per petuate these blessings." . . ...
