NEGRO EDUCATION IN GEORGIA.
The Work of Republican ana OF
Democratic Administrations
Coutrasled.

A few plain, official facts will put ev-
erybody right on this subject that wants
to be put right. In 1871, when the re-
publicans were in power, the number OF
white pupils enrolled was 4 .914; black
pupils enrolled. 6,654, or about n to
seven. See Commissioner Lewis's re-
port for 1871. Not q cent OF money was
paid to the teachers during this year.
See Commissioner Orr's report for 1877.
School funds to the amount of S492, OOO
were diverted by the radicals to other
uses, and the first democratic legislature
passed an act providing for the indebteG-
ness to the teachers of 1871. In 1877
there were no public schools. on account
OF the misapplication of school funds by
radicals in former years. This IS the
school record of the republican party in
as few words as we can present it.
Now for the democratic record. In
1873, when the democrats first got full
control of the state government, the
number Of enrolled white pupils was
1922; of black pupils, 19,756. or about
n to three. The state paid in this
year 5000, 900 towards the support OF
public schools, which sum was divided
strictly per capita between the two class
es of schools.
In 1874, there were 93. 167 white pu-
pills enrolled, and 1854 black pupils.
Amount paid by the state, $685.. 900. the
black people receiving their tull share
OF that sum.
In 1875, the number of white pupils
enrolled was 1O5, 999; of black pupils.
5O,359. Amount paid by the state. $29l-
319; amount paid by the state and by
towns in the state for public school pur-
poses, S435,319.
This is the record. Last year 5O,3l9
black pupils were educated by the state.
against 6,654 in 1871, when the republic
cans were in power. Nearly one-thlrd
of the amount expended last year went
to the support OF schools for colored
children, and we need scarcely state,
even for the Information of people In
distant northern states, that almost the
entire sum came from the pockets OF
white people. The school attendance
is now proportioned to the population,
and an intelligent colored man cannot
be found in the state who will allege
any unfairness in the application of the
moneys appropriated for public school
purposes. In addition to the sums al
ready named, the state has annually
given a colored university $4,000. al
though she has not given a single cent
to any white college. Let these facts,
plainly and briefly stated, suffice. They
cannot be, IN any respect. refuted. They
are official facts, that stand unquallhed
and unchallenged. .

A secret agent Of Partisan police, Won
dering what attraction the sewers offer
ed to 80 many gamins, followed some
and found them fishing for rats with
very strong, wire lines. They explained
that they got from five to ten cents
(American) for the. skins, according to
size. They are turned into ladies' kid
gloves. Rats should rise in the market
ut this rate.
There was a time, but a few years
ago, when the bulk of emigration from
Europe was from Ireland. But such is
not the case of late years. Emigration
from Ireland has decreased, while that
from Germany, Sweden and Russia has
increased. The report of the arrival OF
immigrants last month is remarkable for
the fact that England holds the second
place in point Of numbers. Only Ger
many sent more of her children to these
shores IN that month than came from the
original fatherland of the American PEG.
