There are sixty persons, including female coun- ters, engaged in this work under the su- pervision of the general committee. The count go far has shown a deficit of five cents in one bag of silver, and an excess of six cents in the accounts of the inter- est teller, Itissupposed this discrepan- cy will be explained as the count pro- gresses., Cash is being counted twice, the first time by the committee and again by representatives of the Treasu. rer. It will require two or three weeks to complete the examination. The sum to be counted is a thousand millions, which is ocnsiderably above the yeariy income of the RerorrTes, esse fr MP sos secs sot THE STATE NOR MAL SCHOOLS. The taxation paid by our people for the Common School system is a heavy load to carry, but when the citizens are saddlebagged with the State Normal and the Soldiers’ Orphans’ Schools the force is almost crushing. The Philadelphia Record and the Doylestown Democrat ex- press our views better than we can, and therefore we give them for the benefit of our readers. The former says : The Normal Schools were authorized by an act of Assembly of May 20, 1857. They were at first of slow, weak and doubtful growth. Butin 1861 the State came to the relief of the two or three in- stitutions that had been started with some d of success with an appropri- ation of $5,000 each. Under the provi- sions of the General Appropriation act of 1866 and subsequent appropriation acts there is paid to each Normal School stu- dent who attends school for at least 12 consecttive weeks, and who declares his or her intention to teach in the common schools, at fifty cents per week ; fo sol- diers’ orphans preparing to hecome teachers, one dollar per week, The same act provides for the payment to each Normal School graduate who signs an agreement to teach at least two years fifty dollars. From the year 1866 to 1882 (both years included) there has been ap- propriated under these provisions, in the te, three hundred and seven~ ty-five thousand dollars, In addition to the foregoing appropria- tions there has been given to each of the ten schools now in existence a gift of ten thousand dollars per annum, except that 1 or 2 were omitted last year, always ting fifty or one hundred thou- sand dollars per year. The entire sum Shug 1, propriated since 1861 amounts to $1 The number of teachers graduated by these institutions who remain in the pro- fession any length of time is small, in- deed-—s0 small that neither the institue tions themselves nor the Department of Public instruction deem it worth while to collect and report the statistics. The percentage of students who gradnated from Norma! Schools now in the ranks of the teachers of the State who have been over two years in the businesssince rduating, is infinitesimally samll hen is pot the State paying “too dear for its whistle” in making such extrava- ot appropriations to the Normals? ould not the scholarship appropriation at least be sufficiently ample? The Normal Schools are, in fact, simp- ly academies, nowhere or in any single instance superior to private academies, But, notwi ng the large appropri. ations to them by the State, they in no respect excel private academies, and are souaily costly to the students who ‘at- tend them, what benefit, then, is the Btate , and what becomes t is wholly swallowed up in ex» travagant salaries to the N “Facul- ties,” who receive two, chree and four times as much in salaries 2s other teach. ers of like grade and Jonlidoations, or as the same person could obtain in any oth- er schools or occupation. How can meme bers of the ‘Legislature justify them.

Norfolk, Va., April 2.—This [morning Patrick Joyce, who murdered Thomas Philips, a prominent citizen of Hampton, on Saturday night, was brought here and lodged in jail by Sheriff Haas. The kills ing created great excitement and indignas tion, and fearing that some attempt might be made to lynch the prisoner he was res moved to Fotress Monroe, where he wus kept last night, and this morning he was brought to this city. The killing tookplace in the barroom ofthe Bardes Hotel about midnigt, and was a most brutal affair. Mr. Phillips entered the bar and billiard room ofthe hotel, where he was accosted by Joyce, who invited him to take a drink. He declined, but said he would take a cis gar, As the bartender turned to get it Joyce drew a revolyer and discharged it into Phillips’ breast the ball penetrating thebeart and killing:him instantly, He then thrust the pistol, muzzle upward, ins to the vest pockel of his victim and flad hoping to escape. Joyce, who is from New York, was employed in the National Sols diers’ Home as a clerk. His victim was a farmer, quiet and inoffensive. and leaves a wife and four children, —————— nw - If disease has entered the system the on. ly way to drive it out isto purify and en~ rich the blood.

The lads gave the names of James Shad, aged 16 years, and Robert Elliott, aged 13 years. There were ten boys in the party that started to make this long journey, but the other eight dropped out on the way over the continent. The ag- gregate capital of the ten when the start was made was just $11, Young Elliott, who was dressed in a suit many sizes too large for him, told the story of their journey. “We couldn't make & living in "Frisco,” he said, “and determined to try our luck in New York took a freight train. Me and Jimmy got on the bumpers, and the rest of the fol. lows bung on to the brake beams under the cars. You'd ought to seen them when they got into Reno. Four of them had enough and they went up to Virginia City. Four more dropped out at Winne- mucca and started back ; but we tumbled to a racket that was as good as a sleeper, A young fellow that was travelin’ emi- grant, Kast, gave us the point. The em- igrants are hauled by the freight trains, and they chaoge conductors about every hundred miles at the end of the freight divisions. To beat them all you've go to do isto get ahead of the train one water station beyond the beginning of the di. vision ; then the soap is to hop on tle train, borrow a conductor's check from an emigrant, stick it in your hat and ride to the end of the division. If you can’t borrow one steal it, and repeat as often as you strike a new division, and you'll get there. Eb, Jimmy?” “1 should smile,” said Jimmy. “That's the way we did it plum thro’ to Chicago,” added Bob, n we wi tered cattle for drovers on the train to Pittsburg, and the cattle men fixed it for us to Poiladelphia. We'll strike New York in a day or two, and then we'll take in Wall street, i s— —_—_ A] 5 ——— A BLESSING, The pain in all bis joints became intense; fever with its deteriorating effects, was now sdded, and he became rapidly reduce od to the semblance of a skeleton, while vitality reached its lowest possible condi tion, and his sufferings were of such inde scribable character that those who most loved him sometimes thought it would be better if he were called away.
