PUBLIC SCHOOLS OF Butte CouSTY.-The
Report of the State Superintendent of Public
Instruction, for the school years 1864 and 1865,
gives the number of children in Butte county,
between and Is years of age, as 2,ll. !;
average number belonging to public schools,
975. Amount of school expenditures for the
year ending August 3lst, 1865, sl5O71 SO.
The following is the report OF Isaac Upham,
County Superintendent, as published in the
State Superintendent's report: "The new and
thriving town Of Chico has taken the lead 10
all the northern part of the State by erecting
q fine brick schoolhouse at q cost of FIVE
thousand dollars. 1t is two stories high, forty
two feet in length by thirty-two feet wide; is
ornamented with belfry, well furnished with
blackboards, and is pleasantly situated in a
large and we'll fenced yard. Leonard's Mill
District has built good schoolroom, in con
nection with Good Templars Hall, at cost
of S275. Evansville has built a common frame
house, costing $3.50 This district is provided
with set Of outline maps, backboards, and
other necessary apparatus. Butte Valley has
erected very convenient and comfortable
house, at q cost Of 5000. 1t is well furnished
with the common school apparatus. The
house at Morris Ravine cost S40O Since the
beginning of the present school year, Live Oak
District has levied and collected tax of 81 900
to build new schoolhouse. Some four or FIVE
other districts will probably do the same thing
before the close OF the year. Oroville will
probably soon erect a schoolhouse TO cost from
$4,000 to $4,000. The County Superintendent
cougratuates himself that, while Butte county
cannot boast Of its school palaces, he is proud
OF corps of faithful, capable, and hard working
teachers, which cannot be excaled. In this
opinion the State Superintendent concurs, be
having scot up there, at Mr. Upbam's request,
delegation of Maine boys, which has proved
that down casters have a 'knack of keeping
school The State series of text books is
used in every district in the county,"

bonds could cot be sold for $4,000. Now
every person at all acquainted with the fnan

financially considered, there is no better county
in the State; with debt of little more than

immense mineral resources, her agricultural

a newspaper controversy with the uery funny
Sage" as it is evident that he is pecunarily
interested in some OF the snowshoe routes. and
his business would suffer by diversion Of
travel to the more commonly accepted, and now
universally conceded to be practicable, wagon
route. My dear Sage" do not fear that the
money cannot be raised to accomplish this
enterprise of such vital importance to the
pubilc at large, and Butte and Plumas counties
especially. Individuals stand ready, with the
co ooperation Of Plumas county, TO build road
that can be travelled without the assistance of
snowshoes. The fact is, friend Sage" tie
people of Plumas have become heartily sick
aud tired of crossing the snow belt to reach
the Sacramento valley, with fair prospect
of death as the result and have determined
to release themselves, and bid defiance to the
icy bonds which have chained them. Ii your
business and few others are to suffer for this
great public benefit they cannot help it; they
demand this as right and will insist upon it.

EDITOR UNION RECORD Having noticed
SO many articles in your paper about road
below the Snow line to Plumas and Lassen
counties, concluded few lines from one who
does know something about the lay of the
country, would be interesting to your readers
and the community at large. l begin to see
the necessity for such road. Now, as there
is such vast country of mineral wealth north
what we want, and just what we can have, too
despite of Mr.. Sage" Now, if you will look
at the map, you will see that the west side
Of the North Fork of Feather river is the
nearest, and know and can show it to be a
practicable route. Well, from Orovie via
Yankee Hill TO Concow, % miles, and two
miles beyond, the road is already made; two
horses can haul twenty five hundred pounds
nearly half way to Rich Bar. The distance
from Concow to the mouth of Rock creek, via
the head of the Yankee Hill ditch, is l : miles
the location for a road is good there is at
Rock creek q rough, rocky place, but think
the obstacles can be overcome Leaving Rock
creek, the ground is favorable nine or ten miles
further, which is as far as | am acquainted
with the country, and that is not far from Rich
Bar. Thence there are two routes-one ND to
Humbug valley, and the other up the East
Fork to American valley. Now, if Plumas
can raise a hundred ttousand dollars and old
Butte and Yuba, too, are interested, let's go
down in our pockets, and am sure We can
build one end of the road, aud have q road that
can be travelled at all times of the year. Wake
up, Butte and sister counties, and look to your
future prosperity. OBSERVER.
