ing StatiatieS

Tho annual report Of the Superintendent
OF Public instruction has been printed, and
viii be sent to the General Assembly on the
lst OF january. The report shows that the
results OF the past year do not differ matcri.
ally from those given in the report of 1872.
The only falling off worthy Of notice was in
the enrolment Of the schools, which was
l60,S59 against 166,337 the year beforc-a
difference of 5,516.
The average monthly pay of teachers bas
been increased from S29e6 in 1872 to S32 in
1873. The number Of schooI-houses built
during the year, and the large increase IN
the @aggregate value OF school property,
evince the purpose of the people to build
up the public system solidly and perma.
nently.
The financial condition is more satisfactory
than 1t has ever been. The State tax on pro.
perty for school purposes Is MS large as IT
ought to be at any time.
In the three years that the public school
system has been in operation up to the 1st
Of November, one-third Of the county
superintendent have resigned their Office,
or 81 out of 90.
The prosperity of the higher institutions
during the past year has exceeded that Of
any previous year in the history of the
State; and now we have the satisfaction OF
seeing Virginia leading not only her south
ern sisters In the work Of higher education,
but leading the whole thirty.seven States Of
the Union.

The above tables have been compiled from
the best sources, and present facts which
are remarkable. Scotland was the first
country In modern times to establish uni
versal education, and has to-day probably
the best-educated population in the world.
It is said that her college attendance Is one
to every 1000 of her population. Germany
comes next In the educational list and she
has at college one to $500, whilst England,
heretofore without universal education, but
with upper schools Of the first order, has
only one College student to $500 Of her
population.
1t Is worthy Of note that when the white
population alone is considered, Virginia bus
a larger proportion Of her sons IN superior
| institutions probably than env State or
country il the world And even when the
entire negro population is included in the
estimate, she is the first on this continent,
end second only to Scotland among all na-
| tionsI Without having followed the calcu-
lation into Isst years, my knowledge OF the
| general facts leads me to believe that our
Etate has been entitled to this distinction for
many years, and that Virginia has had for Il
generation or more, and that she has today
larger proportion Of highly educated men
| than arg other Slate or country upo,3 earth!
| How this came to he SO, and what effect il
haa had on her character as q State, and in
giving ner the commanding influence which
she 50 long welded among tue States, the
superintendent does Lot now inquire.
What stronger evidence could be pre-.
sented Of the lore of Virginiars for the
higher branches Of lesrning than the fact
that 1t cannot be quenChed. or even partially
suppressed, by the pinGf1ins poverty which
now oyerspreads the Statef
There is an economical aspect of This sub.
| iect, which should not be di5regarded
| Cmitting Hampton, we had In Virgins
during the year 1928 1887 students al
our colleges, cf whom 613 came from other
States. These have certainly expended with
| in the State, for all purposes. an average ol
$500 each, which would make an aggregate
| of S406,5O0. Then wG had ,124 of our own
bows at college. Suppohe they had all. for want
of colleges ut home, Y3ne into other States for
education. they would have carried out of the
State S5e2, 1000. If they could not have all
gone, so much the wprse. But on the sup
position of all going, the difference would
he nearly 81 200, 900. SO that according
| to this view our colleges are selling educa.
ton, and occasioning trade to the amount OF
near 81 100000 ANNUALLY. Add to this the
| money value addsd't to our Virginia students
by the education shey arc receiving and we
easily get another I,000,000 per annum.
And even then we do not touch the higher
form of value impaired By these institutions
an the cunoblins Of the people. This money
value of educated men has been discussed
iu both of the previous reports of the SUI
pnriutaudent

THE TuEATRE.-MRs. OATBs's COMIC OfERA
CoMPAsY.--A very large and fashionable
audience welcomed Mrs. Oates and her
Comic Opera Company ut the Theatre last
night. And when We say large VIC mean
that the house was full. Her reception was
most cordial, and, certainly, she must have
felt highly compimented. The opera pre-.
sented was that of 1.-The Grand Duchess
and right handsomely and creditably was
It rendered. The charming little song
stress has lost none Of that irrepres-
sible gaity, winning manner, and pleasing
voice which, In addition to the charming
prepossessing features, radiant with spirit
and expression, made her Irresistible with
her audiences when she was iast mere. She
afforded the most gratifying representation
of "The Grand Duchess" last night. Her
effective rendering of the song Of "Dites
Lui" and of LIE Sabre de mon psc" were
enthusiastically received. She Is admirably,
S,,nnortrd, and her visit to Richmond will
doubtless be very profitable one. Tonight
"Thc Kings Secret" will be presented.
