The monthly report of the Superin

the schools Of the city for the past term
was 2,647. The number for the month
of December was 1857. The number
enrolled for the corresponding term OF
last year was 2,190, an increase OF 457
over the corresponding month OF last
year.
At the examination authorized by the
Board of Education, held on the 22d of
December, twenty-one candidates were
present for examination. Of this num-
Der thirteen passed successfully. some
of them showing excellent scholarship.
The new Humboldt school building
having been accepted by the Board OF
Education and made ready for occu-
pancy, the teachers and pupils OF this
school gathered this morning in the new
building and were assigned to their re-
Spective rooms. much to their gratifica-
ton. This buildingsis credit to the
modations it takes prominent position
among the school buildings of this city.
t In closing this report l can say that. so
far as have been able to ascertain, the
number of pupils admitted to the
various schools of this city to-day is un-
usually large, and it seems to me that 1T
is fair index of what we shall see when
the next term opens.
Consequently, can but express the
opinion that large provision must be
made in several parts of this city to &C
commodate those who will desire to
enter school at the beginning of another
year. Very respectfully submitted,
S. S. TAYLOR,
Superintendent Schools.
