the close Of that year, and were then found
insufficient for commencement; and not
until March, 1854, was school.room obtained,
when teacher was engaged at a salary of 800,
and another volunteered without pay. The
school opened in the church on the corner Of
9TH street east and d street south, with forty
pupils, and increased the first week to one
hundred. Want of room now compels refusal
to numbers pleading to enter.
Extreme eagerness of children, adults, and
freedmen from abroad to receive instruction
induced certain Government employees to vol
schools, and, as q result, eight evening schools,
filled mostly with adults, are now crowded
with eager learners. A great dearth OF books,
maps, &c, is felt, and the means OF instruction
are still inadequate. The report urges upon
Congress the entire inadequacy Of the pecuni-
airy means furnished to give efficiency to pub
lie schools, and asks for aid, which will, by
and by, be rendered unnecessary by the increase
OF taxable property and consequent school re-
venues.
