While we are saying good things, let it
not pass mention that the addition to our
stock of ready money was increased dur
ing the month of July, by the following
receipts for staple products sold and
shipped by us to foreign markets in the
the following sums for cotton, 50, 592, S17;
for tobacco, S155, 26O; for corn, $50, 6l3 +;
for -four, S3O,O14; for lard, 1881 and
for slaves, s14,5S9, together with various
sums for minor articles, making an aggre-
gate of S2,946, 0S9. As July is nota good
month for shipments, and as the war in
Europe has crippled our trade somewhat
with Germany, where we have an i'm
mense number of good customers, it is to
be hoped that July will be voted on favor
ably, and her accounts accepted with
gratitude.

buildings are the property Of Of leased BY
the city, and have been reported by the
school board as in dilapidated condition;
and it will take some time for the city
government to put them in proper state
of repair for simple preservation, to say
nothing of the extensive changes made
necessary for increased accommodation in
the schools. The want of more room for
purposes of salubrity and health is parti-
cularly felt in the primary departments.
1t is estimated that it will take fifty
thousand dollars to make the repairs neces-
sary to render the buildings fit for an en-
ightened system of public instruction,
and at least twenty thousand dollars to
keep them from destruction by the ele-
ments. It is safe therefore to infer that
there will be delay in the opening of the
schools, and the teachers and pupils will
enjoy an extended holiday. This has
heretofore been usual in seasons of pro-
tracted heat, and on one occasion, on ac-
count of sickness, the schools were not
opened till the seventeenth of November.
