SCHOLASTIC CENSUS.
what Goes to Make City-I2OI Chill
dren within the Scholastic Age
The Places of Iheir Nativity
The Census by words.

Mr.. j.. c. Bogel City Assessor and COL
lector, has just completed the scholastic
census report for the city, which we give TO
the readers of the HERALD. 1t is the most
thorough report ever made and of interest to
the public and its compilation has cost hirn
and Mr.. Bissel, his assistant, no little labor.
The report not only gives the scholastic
population complete but the number and
places of nativity which is a very interest
ing feature in a cosmopolitan city like Dali
las. The grand total of white and colored
children that came within the scholastic age,
1,20l. OF this number 10 of the former and
80 of the latter cannot read or write. The
report shows IN increase of sixty-four over
that of last year, which is rather small, and
gives the scholastic population of each ward
an extra piece of labor that the assessor and
collector in his desire to give a full report inn
posed upon himself.
The following is the report proper to
which is appended other data.

ON 4LABAM4S WATERS.


The neon shope softly DER the Bay
And in our hearts was beaming
The love-light Of each silver ray
Full on the waters streaming.
The pebbly strand and yellow sand
Like diamonds brightly glistened,
The murmuring wayelets seem'd band
OF music as we listened.
The shadow lines of Point of Pines
In phantom rose before us,
A mystic presence in the winds
Came subtly stealing DER MS.
o watt us, breezes far from guile
Afar from Life's commotion,
To where the isles of pleasure smile
In yon celestial ocean!
Where birds and how'rs and fragrant
bow'rs
Woo every life from labor,
Aud where contentment rules the hours
And man doth love his neighbor.
Where is this fair and happy isle,
Where woe aud want come never,
Where hearts are free from hate and guile
Aud love goes on ioreverf
Where friendship is silver chain
That's never, never broken,
Nor hearts e'er bleed tor words of pain
That envious lips have spoken
And as we sailed the answer came,
And in our hearts did center,
so live that envy, sin, nor shame
Shall in thy bosom enter"
And thou Gods island home shalt know
Where woe aud want cone never;
Where cool winds blow and spices grow
Aud love goes ON forever
Twas dawn of day when from Grand Bay
Our footsteps slowly wended;
Each one to pray had learned the way
A prayer that's never ended.
Shine on Shine on ! o sun of gold
Blow on, ye fragrant breezes
Each man within his heart may hold
\ An Eden If he pleases.

islature it is left to the discretion
of the boards Of supervisors Of the
counties whether or not to assess a
tax on dogs for county purposes.
We believe it would be a wise act
of the boards in the coast counties
would tax all dogs save one in each
household. This would be the
means OF raising a considerable
fund not otherwise collected, or OF
ridding the counties of many
worthless ours.
