Public Schools in Maryland.

The report Of the Board of State
School Commissioners, affords an inter.
esting summary OF the system Of free
education in our State during the past
year. The number Of schools was 800
an increase Of thirty over 1870 They
were continued open longer time, aud
more than 1000 additional scholars
were in attendance. There was a consid.
cradle gain in the receipts of money from
eounty taxation, which were sufficient
to meet the salaries Of greater number
OF the teachers employed, aud in other
details the financial account comes very
uear to an even balance Of Income aud
expenses. A suggestion that the funds
available for use ia the counties are not
sufficient to continue the schools at the
grade Of efficiency which they ought to
possess, and that the resources should
be regular aud always to be depended
upon, is well worthy Of attention aud
as il has been brought before the Leg
islature in the shape Of recomme1da.
tion for an Increase of tax in the eoun.
ties to fifteen cents on the one hundred
dollars, we may look for a further de.
velopment of the matter. The State
Board also suggests that the appoint.
ments of teachers should be vested in
the County Boards, and urges the cree
tion of building for the State Normal
School aud the establishment of High
Scools in the counties.

knock was heard, and who should make his
appearance but Solomon Periwinkle.

passed through the old maid 6 mind.

Solomon in amazement. II think you must
be mistaken, and don't think I'd like to ex
change mine for it, for mine was given to me. ,
81 beg your pardon" said the discomft.ed
old maid, ''but I made mistake. quite
forgot your umbrella which l borrowed some
