are In excellent condition and managed by both
Superintendent Cook and the gentlemen compos-
ing the sub-board, toR ether with the efficient and
accomplished corps Of teachers, in such manner
as to re feet credit on the local government. The
record MADE by them will compare fsvorsblY with
any schools In the country, and is not only ttng
rebuke to those who are continually endeavoring
TO create strife with their management, but q
compliment and an honor TO the entire colored
race, as well as going far to settle the question
that the colored race are not only capable OF re-
ceivtng education, but are q success In lmparting
it. The meeting, after congratulstory remarks
by Trustees johnson, Champlin, Brooks, Ryder,
