 FOUND A HUMAN SKELETON.
 New London, Oct. 1L--This afternoon workmen engaged in road improve ments near Federal Gate, so called, at point where the road leading to Millstone Point leaves the turnpike at Graniteville, came upon human skele- ton. Except for parts of the hands and feet the skeleton was intact, It was evidently that of young person and a female. Medical Examiner c. Maynard Minor of Waterford was summoned and took charge of the bones. He notified Coroner Brown of Norwich, The skele- ton was found not more than a foot be- low the surface. So far as is known there has never been a cemetery in this vicinity, and it looks like a case of foul play. The scene of to-days dis covery is but short distance from the spot where the dead body of Joseph Rowley was found about two weeks ago, and it is but 100 feet from the place where years ago man named Stanton was thrown from his carriage upon a stone wall and instantly killed.

THE SCHOOL Book SUBJECT.
Proof That the Cost OF Books do Not
Exceed 80 Gents Per Enrolled
Pupil.
CHCRCHLASo. Va, April 18th, 1856.

Pupil
ChrncnLANo. Va, April 18th, 1856.
Editor of tie virginiau;
When, short time ago, ] gave you
the result OF IA personal investigation as
to the cost of school books per pupil
III two OF our public schools. it was my
purpose to follow with report en-.
btaclng other schools in this district,
aud that my information might be
thoroughly reliable and authentic /
requested the secretary of the School
Board TO procure the facts for me. This
he very kindly did md has Just placed
III my hands the data upon which to
base TINS paper in the form of n letter
from the principal to each school.
Thinking the public had had enough
Guided TO let the matter drop. but as
the war is still waged against the Stnte
Board OF Education, | think it inv
privilege aud duty us citizen to do
anything In my power to refute the
malicious charges preferred against it.
II space permitted | would report
| separately each of the schools, but as
there are twelve 12), (six of each race),
exclusive OF those recently organized.
1t would weary your patience. 1t is
| sufficient to say TINT this report carries
an eurollment of $50 pupils, and that
| tho actual average cost per pupil is
lust ''6 cents. One of these schools III
proportion to its patronage represents
as much intelligence and more wealth
than any i'll the state.
| Now beuring in mind that the Do
irons of these schools OF both races are
acknowledged to be tho most prosper
Gus III the Stnte; that tue school terms
last some weeks longer than in other
sectionp OF the State, and that we have
a larger proportion OF advanced pupils
mere than elsewhere, 1t Is safe to say
that the average cost of school books III
this State will not exceed 81 cents per
enrolled pupil, aud that the statement
Of the American Book Company as to
sales is entirely within bounds.
Since writing my first communion.
tion l have come III possession of some
oiiicinl reports which go to substan
tiate the figure given above. 1t ~ well
known that school books were much
higher some years ago than they are
now and yes, as far back ms 1869, the
average cost per enrolled pupil in Gin
cihnatl was, according to official report
made to the OHIO Legislature. Just 30
cents; IN ST. Louis, - cents; in New
| FORK city. - cents. and i'll the State Of
west Virginia 1t WAS less than % cents
In these cities named the school books
were purchased and supplied under
slightly different laws. Neither of
these cities has the same cause in the
way OF a large colored population to
reduce the average cost OF books as We
have here in Virginia, and yet the Off.
c!al reports OF the cities named show
that the cost OF school books does not
exceed one third the amount that has
been claimed III the charges against the
American Book Company
l defy any one to refute the asser.
tons ! have made above. Your dirty
hlngs may bo made to throw discred;t
upon them, but they will remain iu-
conirovertable Just the same.
