OF rrRL1c SCHOOLS

i is with no ordinary pleasure that / invite at
tenion 10 a brief review Of the present condition
OF our Free Public Schools
The system of free public instruction was insu-
gursted in the year 1866, under the influence Of q
broad and enlightened philanthropy, and hiss ever
since been cherished and sustained with COM
mendable energy. Iu no government Of the world
are the blessings of educst so much appreciated
aud SO much needed as ours Founded upon, and
upheld by the will of the people, it is necessary for
should be scattered brcsdc throughout the land
that the poor AID the rich be SIDE equal in point
OF intelligence and taereby equally responsible TO
their county and to their God.
The present scholastic year has begun under U :
pices more favorable than at sny previous peri,d
According to the last report of the School Committee
The whole number of pupils in all the schools amounts
to fifteen hundred aud eleven, which is twenty-six
more than was ever in attendance. The number
of teachers employed is thirty sad believe they are
as efficient as any corps of similar character in
the country. The progress of the children in the
several schools, in the common rudirients, aud IN
some Of the advanced studies Of education is, am
pleased t, learn, generally very commendabls, and
| highly creditsble to the teachers
The Howard School House building is now in
rapid course of erection. and when completed it
will be by far the most beautiful and useful build
in the city. This ed f se will accom- nodate seven
hundred aud fifty pupils, and is quite sui ,ient for
the wants OF South Nashville for many years TO
come, including those already in that quarter of the
| town.
All the School bulldogs of tie city are now in
! ex selent order.

SANITARY DEPARTMENT.

From the monthly reports of the City Sexton
you will see that our bill of mortality is exceedingly
low for our population. During the present wear
we have had no opidemics and no city in the Uni
ted States, Of the same sz-, is more blessed with
health, and freer from the ills of life, than Nash
vile. Hereafter, when our railroad connections
are complse. we may expect periodical visits from
our fellow citizens Of the Northern States fleeing
from the cold blasts of winter; and those of The
Southern States, fleeing from the malaria and cpl
denies of that region, in search of place where
they can educate their children, and have some
guarantee that their constitutions will not be in
paired by an inhospitable climate
