While at Toledo my attention was drawn
to very large new stately-looking building,
standing on rise of ground in the western
part of the town and on inquiry, learned
that 1T was union school house. On going
to it, and, by the politeness of Rev. Anson
Smith, superintendent, passing through its
several apartments, found it not only the
largest but the best arranged building of the
kind | have ever seen. Its cost is about
forty thousand dollars, and it is said to be
the best school house in the Buckeye State.
In the basement, aside from two large fur
naces and rooms for the janitor, are two
spacious apartments for play grounds on
rainy or other disagreeable days. They have
well laid brick floor are free from damp
ness, and most admirably answer the purpose
for which they are designed. On the next
floor are recitation rooms, and at either
end is wash room as we'll arranged as any,
thing of the kind in our best steamboats, and
at first class hotels. On the next floor
above, is hall capable of seating comforta-
bly, thousand persons. Though designed
exclusively for the Use of the school, it
would be an excellent place for public lee
turers. Still higher up is bell which
weighs 4,3O0 pounds. All the rooms are
very high, studded and of ample size, and
the arrangements for warming and venti-
lating them are seemingly perfect. The
play grounds without are large and we'll ar
ranged, though not finished Cor. Buffalo

"A correspondent furnishes to the st. Louis
Republican the annexed account of the cir
cumstances under which Mr.. AUBREY. the
noted traveller, met his death:

the Messrs. Mercure, merchants at Santa Fe
crossed the p laza to see him, and was one Of
the first to take him by the hand and greet
him as friend. When Major Weightman
arrived at the store of the Mercures. several
persons had already arrived to pay their re-
spects to Mr. Aubrey.

Aubrey had arrived from California, Aubrey
asked the Major if he yet published his paper
