The Report of Snperintendent Leon Trousdale on the I'nblic Schools Tor the Scholuettlc Year Ending August 31, 1S7S. An Enconragiuff and Interesting Exhibit Cost and Benellts of the System Value of the Industrial Schools of Europe An Example. The annual rpport of Mr. Leon Trousdale, superintendent cf the public (schools of the State, has just been received. The report is for the scholastic year ending Aujrust 31, 1875, and it develops a good state ot school busi ness, and a large increase as to the scope and efficiency of the State schools. The school population of the State numbern 443,917; whites, 330,817, and colored, 112,100. The number cf echoola opened throughout the State is 5346; for whites, 4265; for colored children, 1141. The averatre daily attend ance has been larni and satisfactory, amount ing to 172,19s. 'J ue number of enrolled pu pils is 261,152. The number of white and colored teachers employed is 5592, or 4457 whites and 11:55 colored. TOTAL COST OF THE SYSTEM. The total cost of the State school system for the scholastic year ending 1877-78, is as follows: Expenditures retorted by dlsft clerks.

THE PEABODY FUND. I he appropriations from the Peabody fund for the scholastic year 1877-8 amount to thir teen thousand two hundred dollnrs, of which the Sta;e noimal college receives nine thou sand dollars. CHANGES IN THE SCflOOL LAW'S. Superintendent Trousdale, in his reoort. states m follows: The reports of the various county superin ndeiits are singularly united in suggesting certain change in the law. Viewing its provisions from a practical standpoint, based on constant experience, their opinions are en titled to much weight, ihese points may be tnus summed up: 1. 1'rovision, ot a more compulsory charac ter, tor adopting and enforcing uniformity in lext-Dooits in counties. 2. The establishment of a couutv board of education, or executive committee, in the counties, to supervise and unify school work, promote emciency and secure reports and re- sponsibility, both in financial and educational results. 3. The change of the scholastic year, bo as to begin on July 1st, aud end on June 30th, each year, thus avoiding tlie division of the school year and confusion cf county and dis trict reports. 4. A better, safer and cheaper svstem of distributing and disbursing school money man tne present one, looking to but one dis bursing cmcer in each county. 5. A uniform provision of law to modify ana change school districts, so as to adapt them to ttie natural features of counties, and promote convenience and accessibility. These suggestions will merit careful anl mature consideration, and are submitted re spectfully with my hearty approval. . INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS. The superintendent, on the above subject, prevents the following views: "An eminent educator, Prof. B. G. Northrop, of Connecti cut, truly says: 'The problem of our State and of our day is to elevate work by educat ing and thus elevating the workman.' ' J'he wealth and welfare ot individuals and States, always dependent on labor, only can be most iuliy secured by educated labor. It rightly conducted, our schools, so far from breeding discontent with the humblest pursuits, will prepare for success in the ordinary callings of i . r. . i . . . . l i. i. i ii ;i inc. oui il is uui tfouugri icir liie papency of the State that such sound maxims should be taught. The time has arrived in our his tory when industrial schools, for the purpose of promoting special skill in aencuiturcl and mechanical pursuits, should be employed. We have only to look at Ihe advantages whicli these schools have conferred on Scot' land, Ireland and England, as well as upon the continental nations, to convince us oi their utility in training up master workmen and foremen as well as good skilled laborers for then various avocations of life and for increasing the products ot the sou nud improving the fabrics of manufacturers, thus enhancing in dividual and national wealth and affording employment to all. Belgium, Germany and France alone have about eighty thousand graduated apprentices from their industrial schools, besides their agricultural schools and schools of forestry. In Ireland agricultural schools are interwoven with the common school system. All the trades are learned in these schools on the continent, and the girls are taught to sew, weave, embroider, and make lace, as well as to practcie household duties. In Switzerland there are twenty sven industrial schools, the moit important ot which is a horological institute, at Geneva, in wnicn watcnmaKing is taught. and there suit of which is that one million watches are maue per annum, while in ribbon, muslin. delaine and wood-carving, her fabrics rival i.nose or any neiguDonag nation, iious a mall nation, whose soil is sterile, and which is almost destitute of mineral ores, exacts tribute to her trade from all the world, by her taste, skill and industry the result of her industrial tcuoois.

He gets around to the fires on his mare, all the same, and watches the boys at work. Mit. Charles O.

An Epistolary Correspondence Which Develops T hreats or Murder, Uobbery and Arson An Outrage that Should be Punished Se verely and Swiftly. For some days past the chief of police, Captain Athy, has been ha:d at work ferreting out the author or authors of the following anonymous letters which were sent to Mrs. Kate Dawson, widow of the late Colonel John W. Dawson of this city, and daughter of the late Mr. Eugene Magevney. Mrs. Dawson received a letter, marked No. 1 in the follow ing account, and at once placed it in the hands of Chief of-Police P. Ii. Athy. The other letters were received in the order given : better No. 1. Memphis, March 2, 1879. Miss Dosson There Is now being formed by a gang of experienced and notorious Chicago burglars a plot to rob you and your house of the valuables, dia monds and money tlv t you have, we heating that you have a considerable lot of them, an i tue garg baa bad their beads set on getting them We have also been Informed that you are a very good and charitable woman. I, the leader of the gang, have stoiiped the movements for the nreserit.snd all have agreed not to carry out our plans, under these con ditions: That you will give us the small amount or three hundred dollars, by which you eau let me know by putting lu the personals of the Api'kai. paper, Tuesday morning, March 4th, raying, "I will com ply with your request;" or. If you will not give us the money, three hundred dollars, say the opposite, and we will, however, know how to proceed; and If you agree to let us have the money. 1 will inform ju through the mall wbeie to send it to, and It you do not feel disposed to come up to our agreement, we will carry out our plans e.t all havd. Our scheme Is a good one and well planned, and there Is no way in the world that you could foil us; and before we would be taken or lolled In the attempt to ?ecme these valuables, we would murder any and everybody that comes In our road, as we have every necessaiy burglary tool that is In use. This town is too little for us to operate well in; we want to leave, but not till we get the money to go on. I think by your com plying with our small request you will save a heaD or trouble aria pernaps oioousnea. it anybody comes in our way while our operations are going on. However, ir you win agree to give us tne money not a nair oi your neaa sdhii oenurt. Be sure to pub lsb the answer In the Appkal paper or Tuesday morning, ana n you oon t we snail take It for granted that you will do what we want, when we snau commence our operations, which win be in such a manner as will surprise you. We must have the money, or somebody will get hurt In us getting it ii iney resist us. f fat in tne paper this way: nr. K. v. will comply with your reuuest; Inform me whete to send the package. Letter Mo. 0. March 0, 1879. Mug. Dosson Your answer Is satisfactory, and In reply we say to send the package to J.Wallace, post- ofllce box l.'io. city, and everything will be all right: ana, nowever, li you put spies or detectives on to us, to Interfere with our movements, we will kill the tlrst and anybody that approaches us, and should any of us get caught, one of us would not, and our re venge would be to burn your bouse or do something even worse man tuat, so it would De cneaier ror you to Inclose the money, three hundred dollars. In a medium size envelope and send it to us at the above named place, and If it comes all right and we are not Interfered with, we will be perfectly satisfied aud not a hair of your head or your gr indmother'g either will be harmed, and we do not know of a better wav to get out or being robbed than to comply with our small request. There Is honor among thieves, and your can rest In peace and safety after you have done what you said and not place any detectives or spies on to our movements, as there would certainly be bioodsned on one side or tne other, send tne money this way: Put six lifty dollar bills or three hundred-dollar bills. In a dark, heavy, medium sized envelope, and direct tt to J.Wallace, pos toll ice box 135, city. Put It In the postoftice Wednesday, the fifth, sure, so we can get It immediately and leave town. Don't fall to comply with your part, and should you be stubborn and try to get us caught somebody will be sure to be murdered, as we will let no man lake us without offering a powerful resist ance. THK LEADKR. W'e would burn a whole city If necessary to carry our plans out. lietter Xo. 3. Memphis, March 7, 1879. Mrs. Dosson We write you for Ihe last time. We want tu know if you Intend to comply with jour part of tbe contract, and give us that money or not. You like us when you suit. You would comply with our request, and then you tuned right around and told the chief of police, whe set a trap with tbe post master to catch us, but I nlll tell you be ain't sharp enough to do that, and your envelope had no money In it; we would not take It out. We are no, going lo be fooled with, and if you value your property, come out In tbe personals of the Appeal to-morrow and say that you will or you will not give us that money. Th9 police don't catch us you need not try to get them to do that, and we could have killed that pri vate watchman of yours the olher night so inilck with a slungsbot that he would never know what hit him, and nobody else. We are not going to fool any longer, so say If you Intend to tlx your promise or not, and we will tell you where to send the money ; but If you lie to us again, aud put tbe police ou us, we will drop on you when yon leava In a way you will never think. If you can tke that empty pack age out of the postotlles, as we are not fools enough to bite at your trap when there is nothing In it, and If you don't decide pretty quick what you are going to do, the loss will be heavy on you. The above letters, as received, were placed in the hands of Chief-of-Police Athy, the last one was received yesterday, and the chii f. with liis detectives, Messrs. M (June acd Pryde, and other members of the force, who had been put on that special work, were able to arrest and "pull" the men who at tempted to play the gams of b'ackmail. They are A. T. Foster, a young man raised in Memphis, but lately an employe of Fore paugh's circus acd menagerie. Lie is a fast young man, aged about twenty-two years, and is "crooked." The second was Charles Sims, alias J. Wallace, a "crook," who is a comparative stranger in Memphis, but has been here for some time as a performer at the Washington street variety-show, as a fancy, light-weight glove-boxer. He is about twen-two-years of age. The third young man is a native-born Memphian. and most respectab'y connected. He admitted that he wrote the letters above given at the dictation cf the other young nien. He is about twenty one years cf age, and has been recognized as a young man who worked lor a living, but last lite, beer, whisky and fast women ot the variety school were too many for him. He formed bad associates and, of course joined the "gang." The three young men who at tempted to extort money were arrested by the agents of the chief of police yesterday, and they confessed as to their delinquencies. Esquir Quigley was called in and issued State warrants against each of the young men, and their cases will bv heard by him at ten o'clock Monday morning next. The Memphis man gave bail in the sum of two thousand dollars to appear on that day, his re latives and friends going on his bond. The other two young "crooks," A. T. Foster and Charles Sims, were sent to jiil in default of bail. The entire trouble was beer, wine and women, which results generally in "crooked ness" and robbery, at lea?t with young men in Memphis. One Week in Wall Sitreet, October 7, 1378, Westera Union telegraph stock sold at the New York stock exchange for 9G.1 per share; October 14, 1873, it sold at 80. 3 4 a fluctuation of 9.3 8 per cent, in ssvt-n days; 12,500 shares sold on a margin of 1 per cent, required an actual capital of 112,500. The same stock di livered at 86.3 4 gave a profit of 9.3-8 per cent, on the 6tock or 937 50 per 100 shares. On the whole 12,500 the actual profit was 117,187 50 or 9.3 8 times the capital used, in one week. This is a single case taken from the official record of the stock exchange, and shows how money is made so rapidly in stocks. Few people, however, have the necessary cash to put up in order to reali.e such immense profits as these, but capital in any amount Irom 10 to $50,000 can be nsea with equal success by the new combination system of operating in stocks which Messrs. Lawrence & Co., backers, New York, have established. By this method of pooling thousands of or ders in various sums and operating them as one immense capital, shareholders realize large profits which are divided pro rata monthly. New circular contains two unerr ing rules for success, and full information, so that any one can operate profitably. Stocks and bonds wanted. Government bonds sup plied.
