There are five schools for colored children-two primary, two secondary, and one grammar school.

From the table showing the number of children enumerated, and the number onrolled in the schools at different ages, it appears that there are a larger number of children enumerated at the age of seven than at any other; a larger number enrolled at the age of eight, and that at the age of thirteen the largest per cent. of those enumerated are enrolled in school.

Four-fifths of all the children of the city, between the ages of seven and fifteen, have been, for a longer or shorter time during the year, enrolled in the public schools. Of those fifteen, sixteen, and seventeen years of age, one-third have received instruction some portion of the year. Estimating the number of children attending parochial and other private schools, it is believed that there remain in the city at least 2,130 who receive no school instruction.

The thirty-third annual report of the board of education for the year 1869 includes a report of the president of the board, Hon. E. R. Perkins, and of the superintendent of instruction, Hon. Andrew J. Rickoff, which comprise, among many other items of interest, the following:

Teachers employed: men, 14; women, 148; special, 3..
Average daily attendance to each teacher..

Number attending private schools: boys, 564; girls, 682.
Attending church schools: boys, 2,574; girls, 2,839...

Of all the children in this city at twelve years of age, little more than one-half were in school at all last year; more than two-thirds of those at fourteen, and seven-eighths at sixteen, never darkened the school-house doors.

By far the largest part of the youth reported as attending church institutions are enrolled in the Catholic schools; a part, in the schools attached to Protestant German churches. The most of those returned as in private schools go to German schools; comparatively few to the English.

If all the school-going population of our city were in the public schools, our accommodations would fall short of the demand; how far, we may judge by recurring to the fact that the greatest number we can possibly receive in all our school buildings is only 10,753.

Total population, (United States census, June 1870,) 98,985.
