PUBLIC scHooLs. Under the administration Of
VIM Fagan superintendent of Public Schools of this
county, school matters are progressing in praisewor
thy manner. The sch5cl on Buena Vista Bar under
care of T. Hibbler, teacher has full attendance of
forty-ive pupils, and it ranks as one of the best
taught schools in tie Territory! Chas. T. Bowen,
having duly received his certificate of leadership,
will commence keeping the Public Schoolin this city
in few days. AS the number of children eligible
to the school in this District is reported at 1856, he
may safely count on having good attendance On
Thursday, Mr.. Pagan issued certificate of teacher
ship to Mr.. g. Hughes, who has list of forty-fve
pupils promised to him for school at Placervile,
and the school will be opened in few days. Mr..
Henry McGuinness will reopen the school at Pioneer
City, Dec ID, with list of sixty-tWo pupils. The
prospects, therefore, for adequate educational oppor
tunites to be assured in the several districts by
means of public schools for hesensuing season, is
much better thanswas expected a. % G s.

of about 81 500 in greenbacks in this city, last
Wednesday night, at a late hour. The money was
loose in his pockets and after he went to bedh his pam

abstracted, and the pants were found next morning
under the rear porch of Mr. Mat Zapp's residence,
where the thief had evidently thrown them, after.

were two of $500 each, one or two of $780, and the
remainder in smaller notes Officer John Wilson
with Major Perry until late hour, and accom-
panied him to his sleeping apartment. He exhibits
great interesti the recovery of the money for Major
Perry, but it is quite unlikely that he viii ever be
successful in having it restored to the loser The
fellow who stole it is evidently adroit at the business
and equally skilled in knowing how to conceal the
means to fasten the guiltupo himself. -
