AMONG THE SCHooLs.-The Maryland
School Journal for December, says:-A visit
to the public schools at Westminster, Carroll,
ton, Sandymount Fink sburg, Louisville and
the impression formerly made on our mind,
that education in Carroll is looking up. Clean
and comfortable houses, bright and happy
active and kindly understanding seemed
to be wanting. A public meeting at Finks-
burg, though held on a dark and stormy night,
was so well attendedth that we became conviuc-
ed that one, and not the least important cause
of this happy state of affairs, is TO be found in
the fact that the people themselves are deep
ly interested in their schools. Mr.. Horner,
of the board of local trustees, was chairman
of the meeting. Able addresses were deliv-
cred by the Examiner, Mr.. Newson, and
f. l.. Herring, School Commissioner.
