school Statistics.

Mr. A W Neale, the efficient and obliging
examiner of our public schools, has kindly
furnished us with the following interesting
statistics of TIE public schools of the county :
Thereare g. public houses in the county, being
eae .ser last year The additional school WAS
built in the neighborhood of Pisghh and was
for the accommodation of white children. The
number OF different pupils on roll during The
past wear was ,, 100, divided rs follows: White
males rs; white females Cos; colortd males 59l :;
colored females 663 This table shows that
the white male children are in excess of the
white female, and in the case OF the coored
children it is just rice rersa. The children on
roll for this year are greatly in excess OF the
year 1882, when there were only , 9S and is
greater than it has been for a number OF years
past The Average attendance this year was
94l, being 80 per cent OF the whole number
against 81 per cent. for last year. The attend
ance of children At school was greater in the
spring term than at any other during the year,
and this seems to US a little singular in view of
the fact that that is usually regarded as the
busiest term of the year with our farmers, and
the rush of work attendant upon the spring
season usually requires them TO keep children
al home from school to assist them during that
busy time 1t also demonstrates the fact that
if they can be spared then TO attend school
there is no excuse for them 10 be kept at home
during other seasons and it only proves great
negligence and want OF thought and lack Of
duty on the part of parents that the school at
tendance is not greater during the rest OF the
year We have repeatedly expressed our views
on this subject and if parent do not become
more careful in this particular it will prove
Il source of much regret both to then, and 10
the children in after life. The public schools
were kept open ; ) terms during the year
and the loss was occaSSoned by failure on the
part of the comptroller to pay over the amount
of State tax due the county during the spring
term Of this year. In addition to this the
school board have built four new school houses
at Il total cost 81 .O57 10; thus, with one eXcep-
lion, having al! the white school property oil
the county in their own hands, and, with two
exceptions all of the co,ored The financial
report of the secretary appears el>ew heIe. Ca
the whole the report given by the tNtmIHeT Is
most >uti>f. ctory aud shows that the school
aff.rs Of the county have teen lSely an. econ
omically ma naged, and viii compare tAvofat.!
with that OF any county U the State and far
more better and economically managed than
TWO thirds of them.
