We also paid a visit ofinspection to the county
Jail and there found confined 50 prisoners, Of
whom twenty are colored and eighteen are
white, thirty-fiye are males and three are
females. We found the sanitary condition of
the institution excellent, and everything ap-
pears to be done by Sheriff Robinson and his
Warden, Mr.. Kline, to secure the comfort and
security of those persons who are placed in
their charge.
We also paid visit to the County Aims
House and found there seventy-two inmates,
of whom thirty eight are white males and
twenty are white females, and six are colored
males and eight are colored females. The in
mates are all comfortably provided for in the
temporary buildings that have been erected for
their accommodation until the completion of the
new Aims House buildings. The new building
is now rapidly approaching completion and
appears to be built in the most substantial man.
ner and when completed will be an ornament
to the county and will reflect credit on the
builders. We also found the gentlemanly
Manager at his post and obtained from him all
the information relative to the management of
the institution.
We have had some difficulty in procuring
the attendance of witnesses, in consequence of
the extreme inclemency of the weather since
we have been in session and also in conse
quence of the want of railroad facilities to con-
meet this place with the northern and western
portion OF the county, and We respectfully re-
present to the Commissioners of our county,
through your Honors, that in our judgement
any investment to encourage railroad con-
nection from Towsontown to any point on the
Northern Central Railroad would greatly facili-
tate the business of the Court and be a great
convenience and accommodation to a large
body of our fellow-citizens.
With many thanks for that kindness and
courtesy that has characterized our connection
as body with the Court and the States At
tornJIoand his Deputy, we now submit our re-
port eyour consideration.
Very Respectfully,

We admire the christian fOrtitude that
has lately characterised the editor of the
Blade in his efforts to cover up the "mis-
fortunes" of political friends, even uL'o
and after death, from the "fil :ehoo ls' OF
those that should be friends.
We beg to differ with our neighoor in
regard to the mode Of treatment for such
infirmities. The law governing County
Treasurers,.in regard to the disposal of
County funds, has been totally disregard
ed by Mr.. KoUNTz. The money ~ds

HISTORICAL SKETCH Of MILLBURY
Importing q School Director "A Bachelor
Refuses 10 Pay Taxes 10 School his Own
or Other Peoples ohildren--The Modern
School House at Nillbury--Teaehers, &c,

Mr.. EDIToR There was q slight mis-
take in the last word of our sketch OF
Millbury last week. It tshould have read
impossible" land should have been fol-
lowed to complete the sentence) for our
children to get to either school.
How to get our children educated was
mystery for sometime, as there were
not enough voters in this neighborhood
to entitle us to directors IL we had a
school district set off, There were two
or three families here st that time, like
myself, that had not become citizens of
the United States. We could talk, but
could not hold Office nor vote. Mr.. John
Akenberger and Mr.. Bruce Ames were
the only men qualified to hold Office,
which left us one director short for a
than Akenberger of our trouble and invi-
ted him to come into our neighborhood to
live, that we might usJ him as q school
director. He then lived with his brother,
Mr.. George Akenberger, about six miles
from here. He accepted our proposition
when we were prepared to present our
claims to the Board of Education to be
set off in separate district. The Board
of Education at that time consisted of on
ly three members and.the township clerk.
Although the Board was small we had to
do great deal Of talking-esp, cislly to
one member If that body. 1t happened
to be an old bachelor, and we suppose he
did not want to help pay for schooling
other peoples children. The great ex-
cuse was, "the taxes are Nlready too
h avy." Mr.. VIM. Jtffery, being one ol
the Board, decided in our favour, so we
had school district apportioned us.
Since that Tine there have been three
other school districts made from parts o.
our old district. Jonathan Akenberger
John Akenberger and Bruce Ames were
our first directors. The former Akenber.
gr always took deep interest in oul
school. Although young man he has
been dead for several years, and we have
no doubt but he is rcaping his reward il
heaven.
Our first school was held In a little oil.
shanty that some Irishmen put up wher
the railroad grale WAS mide. Since tina
time we have had two good school house,
The first was built by Mr.. Fury and Mr.
Shook, which was burnt down som,
three yc,rs since. Oar present schoo
house was built by Mr.. George Fury, o
This township. We are quite proud of Il
as we think 1t Is an ornament to Mill
bury. The total cost of the building
with the fixtures, was about four thou
sand dollars. 1t will accommodate abou
two hundred children.
OUR TEACHERS
Miss Elder taught our first school
since we have had the following teachers
Miss Bradley, Miss Shalotte, Miss Bar
Miss Harmon, Miss Shepard, Mr.. Pepper
Miss Vass, Miss Gibson, Miss Duke, Mr.
Tamblin, Ms. blake, Mr.. Wilson, Mis-
B, ownson, Miss Tracy, Mr.. Ben

Wood, Miss r. Haines anu Miss K
