THE COUNTY SCHOOLS.

The County Superintendent of Public
Schools G. E. Bishop, has visited during the
past three months nearly all the schools un.
der his jurisdiction, about sixty in number
He has graded the schools, and promoted
such as were entitled to enter higher studies,
and expresses himself pleased with the gem
erai state of the educational interests over
which he has charge Special attention has
been paid by him to instructing the teachers
and schools in hygenie, and also in calling
greater attention to the school libraries
Much more interest has been taken in the
latter, and they have been greatly improved
during the past year, and the funds for this
| purpose carefully guarded against being mis-
| appropriased In some districts the library
| had been entirely neglected; the books all
missing. and nothing to show for the funds
set apart by law for libraries.
| During the past year four school houses
| have been built, and new and improved fur
niture and school apparatus has been substi-
tutad or provided in many districts. Many
! districts have been provided with set Of
writing charts, and increased attention has
been given to this necessary branch, with
noticeable good results.
| Fifteen Of the schools in the county
will close on the LIST of July. They are those
at Richland, Isleton. Emmaton, franklin,
| Mokelumne Hicksville, and those IN tne
| districts known as Alabama, Brown, DAVIS,
Carson Creek, Granite and Grant. The
others have closed for want of funds, some OF
them as long as three months since.
A new manual for The schools OF the county
has recently been prepared and adopted oy
the Superintendent and County Board OF
Education, containing course OF study, suS-
eestions TO teachers and trustees. list OF DOCKS
adopted by the County Board Of Education
for the use Of libraries, etc.
The new course of study embraces fVe
grades-the grades being defined by the
reader-the fifth grade being those using the
first reader; secondgrade those in the fourth
reader. ETC., with corresponding studies. This
makes the grading much simpler than here
tofore, and enables uniformity in grading
throughout without difficulty to the teacher,
and easily understood by pupils and parents.

A SILvER-MoUNTED STIcK.-It is seldom
that cudgel or stick used in combat is held
in such endearing respect as to be subse-
quently silver-mountel and handed down to
future generations as an heirloom, or made
the subject of presentation TO pioneer socie-
ties, but Sacramento is the possessor of that
kind of stick. 1t was presented to the
Pioneer Association last Saturday by r l..
hampton. and the history of this silver
mounted stick was given in his presentation
remarks, which were as follows: " hold in
my hand che stick with which Colonel Keifer
struck Samuel Norris on the ear some twenty
five years ago, on account of which Flow
Norris was obliged to have a tin instrument
for use to apply to his ear when holding con-
versation. The difficulty occurred about
land. keifer was living on piece of land
near the American river, which Norris
claimed. and brought about the occurrence.
Keller was arrested for the assault. but
cleared on hearing of the case. Humphrey
Griffith was his lawyer. A little while after
Keifer had the stick mounted with silver.
aud had engraved thereon these words
Caution. Presented to Humphrey H. Crit
fifth, by friend On the 23d of March,
1865. Humphrey Griffith died, and by will
appointed me his executor. Among his
effects found this stick, which l now pre-
sent to this society as relic of the past "
Upon motion the stick was received. and its

his faculties unimpaired, is a thing of
unfreouent occurrence, and if perhaps
such cases are to be found oftener
here than in most other localities, it
NAV be looked upon as a proof OF the
great heaIthiness of the climate, which
IS one Of the advantages our beautiful
sunny little Island possesses, and to
which is to be ascribed the longing
for the spot which is said Ito be pre-
served by many who have left the

occasional view Of other and larger
spheres of action, 1 have on the
whole no feeling Of regret at such
