made and correctly adjusted The hanes
should ct the collar we'll and should not

are. The staples which holds the side

stopping at Corinth desire to rest their
horses, four fine, strengthening brutes.
They had considerable gold with them,
and frequent visits were psid the bank
for the purpose Of making exchange into
paper money, which seemingly could not
be satisfactorily done, as no gold was ever
exchanged. ,n
I Monday after dinner they pail the II

was armed with two navy skies, but as
they had been travelling in wild countries

some money. When the last Of the three
entered he quietly locked the door, while
another one of the gang let down the
shades over the door and windows. This
startled Mr.. Taylor, who asked what they
meant by doing that. The reply was,

THE PUBLIC sCnOOLsYsTEm


The Nashville Banner in speaking Of
the report Of the Public schools uses the
following:
These figure, are eloquent In sugges
tion. They speak more impressively for
the vitality of the school system now in
operation, than any words of tongue or
pen CON do 10000 pupils, in round
numbers in the free schools Of the State,
during 1872; 1000 schools in operation,
taught by 4,20O teachers. We are per-
susded that the report Of the present
year will show no falling off. Let it be
remembered that the United States CEN
su' reports for Tennessee 36i, ,66s litter.
ate persons, Of whom 17S,7l7 are white,
and 1884 are colored, beside 20 Chs
nese and Indians, and we are prepared to
estimate the Importance of the showing o.
last year.
From these facts we may draw two or
three differences, which canuot be cues.
Ito iod. The first is, that the present
law is the enc for Tennessee. Il has
proved itself worthy Of confidence, by its
results. We want no repeating We
have started from tho foundation often
enougn. The labor of many warm friends
OF education for years, has been expend,
ed in securing the present condition of
our educational interests. If ambitious
Legislators aspire to te the father Of the
school system Of Tennessee, the popular
voice should warn them that the leg,ti,
mate child of the State is already born
and is already exhibiting vigorous and
lusty growth. Second. the system should
be improved by two or three important
amendments. These will be made known
ID due time, as they will be discussed by
the next State Teachers Association.
Out of 100000 children in Tennessee,
$4,000 were in school in 1878. During
the two years which intervene between
che meeting of the next Legislature and
the one following it, there ought to be at
least 100000 children in the schools each
year. Before this can be secured certain
amendments must be made which will
render the law more uniformly efficient,
secure the establishment vf schools, and
make them better when they are estab.
lished.
Another inference, the friends of pop,
ular education should watch jealousy
lest the efficiency Of the law be crippled
by unwise efforts at economy. These arc
hard times, and the rallying cry during
the last campaign was down with the
taxes" 50 that under the pressure Of
demand for economy. the attempt may
be made to abolish the State and county
superiutendencies. II this should be
done it will prove ind,ed penny wise
and pound-foolish policy, and will Grip
pie the law most thoroughly. 1t is an
economical MEASURE. consider it in What
light you will, to establish o permanent
school system, and he takes narrow
view Of things who takes an opposite po-
sition. Above everything else, our
schools must be made efficient. Many of
the best men Of oar State are working at
this, and we have faith to believe they
will succeed.
