and about l2o blacks in attendance.
There is a school in the County under

$247 90 month, Dr. $2,22s 90 for
nine months. The State apportion-
ment is 81 l3 each for 78d children,

Highlander was attending to the culinary mat

THE LOCAL OPTION QUKsTIoN.-The tenn
perance men Of New York seem disposed to
adopt the suggestions made by Governor Dix in
veto Of the Local Option law. A bill which had
already passed the senate has been amended in
the house, by adding to it the local option bill
in the form recommended by Governor Dix
namely, that the questions of authorizing the
sale OF spirits and of beer and cider in any town.
ship of the state shah be voted upon separately
by the people of the township, with power to
permit the sale of either, neither, or both. At
the same time another bill has been introduced
by Mr.. Sylvester, and has been ordered to a
third reading. Mr.. Sylvester's bill is a copy in
the main of the temperance bill now in force in
Ohio, Illinois and Connecticut, and provides
that the person who sells liquor wherebyI,any
one is made drunk shall be legally responsible
for any mischief committed by the one so OBJ
tanning it while intoxicated, or for any neglect
OF duty as man or a citizen to the injury of
others Oh the part of the customer in cOnse-
quence Of the hahitual use OF LIQUOR. This lat
ter bill meets with general approval every
where, but the question has yet to be deter
mined whether i'm practical operation it would
amount to much.
