Over one hundred are nov attending this

In No. ~. a school-housc has been built
during the pas, season on North street, at
cost no, less than s2,7O0. An ample
ground Of Eve rods frsni, running back SIX
tsen rods has been handsomely enclosed,
and divided into two yards. The house is
of brek, two stories IN height, and Is plac-
ed one hundred iect from the street. The
lower room Is twelve feet high, well warm
ed, and Is ven,ilaied by dropping the up

scholars can be comfortably seated. Here
the younger scholars grow wiser and bet

In No. Z, -the \. l.. potion Of the vii
lsge,--a house is now erecting, which will
cost abou, $4,000. II Is of brick, one story
10 height, SIXTY feet 10 length, and thirty
feet in width. The two rooms are fourteen
fee, high, with ,en,ilators. and seats SINH
lar to those in No. 10. The floor under the
desks rs level, a, they should be. The
desks are bu, slightly sloping. and viii &C.
c onmodatc, m each room, seveniy-fye
scholars. There san ample entrance hall,
and behind tho teachers desk is a small
room for library, apparatus. etc. The
windows are sufficiently humorous, and pro-
teetcd by blinds. The grounds cover
space Of over half an acre, and the house
stands removed from the noise Of the streets
and shops. Two teachers will commence
work IN this house about the first Of Janua
~, and scholars enough will attend to keep
them busy.
These three houses have no windows
opening into the school rooms from the
street, bot are placed in retired places, in
the midst Of ample fields, as they should
be.
So II VII be seen, thai in our village,
siihin the las, three years, abou, twelve
thousand dollars have been expended for
School buildings alone. Daring the pres.

the conmon Schools, two in the Acaae-

- hools. concerning which we cannot speak.
