Pub. Does
To Joel j. Jones. Esa, of the
State Senate, we are indebted toI
copies Of the London (England) Daily
News, as well as several public docu-
meuts of value. From the sReport
of the State Treasurer, to the Gene
raj Assembly of Tennessee, October
l, 1857" we learn that the annual
distribution of the School Fund to
the several Counties and Districts Ia
the State. made on the third Monday
in July. 1857, amounted to the sum
of S20S,177 80. The scholastic pop
ulatiop of the State is 2SS,5SS, which
at 70scents per scholar, makes the
above amount. Lincoln county, with
scholastic population Of 6,02S, re-
ceived 1929 Goa decrease Of
S403 90, from 1856.
In the "Report of the Commis-
sioners for the Erection of the State
Capitol, made to the Legislature, DC
.tober l, 1851 it is stated that tue
~entire cost of the Capitol Building te
this time is SS02,567 3d. and it is
not yet completed, The foregoing
statement discs not include the cost O
real estate, furniture, decoration, etc,
which amounts to about Sl5O,O00
Judging from the amount already ex'
pended, the Capitol ought to be fine
when finished. So
