Educational.

The Report Of the State Superintendent OF
Education makes a fall exposition OF the con-
tlition OF the educational institutions OF me
state Our free schools are not in satiSfac-
tory condition, and never will be until the
present unwielGy, irregulariy shaped districts
are subdivided. and small, compact ones sub
slituted, in which shall be permanently ioca-
ted one school house for each race. This is
the basis upon which local taxation supple,
n!enting the two-mi!l tax can erect a Schcol
system that will accomplish the ends desired.
and until il is done little or no progress WIZ
be made except N the towns and thickiy pop
uiated sections OF the country. | would urge
you not to adjourn again Till yCu take up this
matter and perfect the law.
The State is makinga tar greater outlay Tor
higher education than some OF her sister
States, but the common free schools alone are
accessible TO nine out OF zen children within
her borders. They should receive the foster
ing care of the General Assembly, and Know
OF nothing which would give the cause OF &C.
