from the Chairmanship of the. Railroad' .
Committee, or displiMivg him altogether

constituents and to the declared policy
of the pasty, requires he should run- no
risks. If;lie should count on Mr.

presumption, and. that Mr. • Wallace

tingencies, 1001,067, and for purchasing
building, renting and repalring,l4sB,3l6,
an aggreo increase in these particu
lars of 14T2,252. The State appropri
ation. was 6355,000; paid . to county
superintendents, 150.221—en increase
of 16,419. Whole amount of tax
levied and State appropriation, 1 0 , 071 4-
5, an increase of *.V2.Z.25. Tax levied
in eighteentiundred and eighty-nine dis
tricts, 136104=5, an 'Uremia of 1602.X7.
In Philadelphia (not included in -the
above abstract) there are three hundred
and seventy-four • schools under',State
superintendence—tout high- schools,
sixty grammar, exty-sine secondary,
one hundred and elghty-nine primary
and illity-ell unciamidedschoohn seven
tns male, and twelve hundred and
thirty-five female , teacher, number of
pup s belongingto the schoolat the clue
of tbe gar, 77,164; -average attendance,
06,033; amount paid for salaries of teach
ers, 8645,552.77; lots, bonitos. additions,
an, $1117,816; books, Ac. 1186,5887-total.
or school purposes, 11,102,787.
School' accommodations and- teachers
were provided for 245,01 more pupils
thin attended regularly—the average at
vandanoe on the whole .number being
nnly-a little more than sixty per. cent.
This irreguisruy (says the Superintend-
ent,) in attending , schools necessitates
the unproductlia expenditure or an hu
mans. sum of money, and this is scarcely
the worst Of its effects, for it everywhere
deranges the school 'and cripples' the
teaching. Brom facts that have come tb
the knowledge of the School Department,
it it believed that quite a large number
of children, of proper OM in nil pails of
the Mate, never attend school. I Some
such are to be frond In almost !every
,oral district, and every village, and
thousands, it is feared, mull be hunted
up in our large lowa, and cities, Boma
thingshonld be done to bring these neg
lected dames into the schools. and, u al
preltunuary step, It is suggested that I
provision be made by law to take the
oeususonee cyst, tore.or flee years of
all tbachddren tu the Stale," between the
'ages orate and twenty-one.
Only eleven high schools made reports
to the Department. This Is but al small
proportion of the whole number, m the
State, ea there aro now 3,147' graded
school., and every . system of graded
schools must. livsnme lentle, have high
schools. The number of publio high
schools is increasing rapidly, and
whersver well =waged they are meet
'wreath favor from the people. •
The past' hes been a prosperous year
for the Stale Normal schools, and the
State Is relining a large return of fruit for
her liberality towards them. The nuns
tor of students attending them increased
from 8. 0 10 to 14185, the number of their ,
graduated frouil forty-three to tortyelx,
the volumes In their libraries from 5,490
to 6,986, the total vales of their proper t y
from 1101,370 00, to 12444830 00, and their
whole Stuitialal condit l unlum been some
what
improved. ,
In addition to the State Normal Scheele,
some twenty private Normal schools or
Normal inalittitea were in operation in
differ. nt parts of the State. probably
two thousandstudent* attended thou
institutions for a longer or shorter period
of time. Bolter than anything else ,they
indicate the want of more State schools
and their proper location. The prospect
is thatacreral mere State schools will
ask for recognition within a year or two.
