According to their showing there are in the city, tifty-seven schools, forty eight of which arc private schools, and nine l'rco schools. Tho pri vate schools number two thousand three hundred pupils, and tho freo school* seven hundred, malting tho total number of children under instruction, three thousand. In ono of the female schools there are two hundred nnd sixteen pupils taught by sixteen competent instructors; and in several others the number ranges from ono to two hundred. Besides the schools enumerated there aro three others, numbering between ono hundred and fifty and two hundred scholars, where tho various brunches of English educa tion, as well ns architectural drawing, aro taught during the fall and winter months. These are the night schools of tho Virginia Mechanics’ Institute, open to all its members, and they have already effected more towards educating the young mechanics of the city than all tho free day schools in tho State can do in a century to come. Tlie Frazer River Emigration. As tho Frazer River Gold Minos is now a subject of great interest to the world at large, anything in relation theroto will be read with avidity by the mass of our readers. An item of uo little interest is contained in a dispatch from Lord Malmesbury, received at Washington, ex pressing the views of tho British govern ment with regard to American emigrants to Frazer river, and meeting the whole subject in a most liberal spirit. Mr. Nu gent, late of tho San Francisco Herald, who goes out there to advise with Ameri cans at the mines, will take a letter from Lord Napier to Governor Douglass, ex pressing the same views. Mr. Secretary Cass, it is also said, is preparing a reply to Gov. Steven’s recent communication, complaining of tho lecenso and other res trictions imposed by the Hudson Bay Company, taking the ground that those are matters of internal government, with which our government, as such, has no right to interfere. Liberal instructions on tho subject, however, havo already been sent from England to Governor Doug lass. Cattle Disease. Colonel A. G. Summer writes to tho Charleston Mercury as follows : Mr. Editor: Tho Cow Disease, which prevails to such an alarming extent, as sumes two types. Fat stock cattle be come stitf, and exhibit all the symptoms of founder. 1 have seen hundreds af flicted in this way, both in Florida and South Carolina, but have not seen a sin gle animal dio when thus attacked. A pound of Epsom salts, given in four gal lons of gruel, to which was added a tablo spoonful of ground ginger, has always, with me, effected a cure. Old cows giv ing milk and three year olds aro afflicted differently. They have purulent sore mouths, originating, I believe, from the same cause, hut acting on tho weakest part of the animal. The decayed denti tion of old milch cows and the shedding of the front teeth of three year olds render them liable to sore mouths, and it usually in such stock dovelopes itself in febrile attacks. In Florida, all my threo year olds iu milk had sore mouths and high fever. I gave them salts and ginger, aud mado a single application of nitrate of silver in solution (lunar caustic) to the mouth by a rag swab, and they invaria bly recovered. J did this under the re commendation of an intelligent young physician, and never had to repeat the escharotie treatment a second time. I had several animals so far gone that they would have starved to death in a few days, and these 1 fed with gruel until they were able to graze, which they in variably did in twenty four hours after being treated with tho nitrate of silver. Finding these facts of service to me, I publish them for the benofit of those who may need them. A. G. SUMMER. From Itio <le Janeiro.

Will Saltpetre Explode I The London .Sun, in giving an account ,of tho recenl fire at the London Docks, states that there was an expiation of two thousand bags of saltpetre. Tho editor says that “the great explosion of salt petre which completed the destruction of tho centre division of warehouses, ap pears to havo been felt over tho whole of tho eastern portion of the metropolis.— Nothing like it has been experienced in. London since the formation of the Fire Brigade, and considering the quantity of saltpetre (one report stutes 2,000 bags,) stowed in piles on the first floor, which blew up, it is truly wonderful that a catastrophe similar in its melancholy re sults to that which took place at Gates head and Ncwcastle-upon Tyne, a few years ago, did not occur. Long before it happened, the firemen were directing their branchos both from back and front into this divisional warehouse, whilo a number of men were on the roof of the adjoining warehouso. Happily, a few minor explosions had induced tho firemen to shift their position just clear of the building, nnd to that circumstance may be attributed the preservation of their lives, fur when the great explosion came, so terrific was it that every particle of tho walls instantly came down. When it is stated thut tho walls were of solid brickwork, three feet thick, strongly welded together with iron bolts and ties, and that they were blown down into frag ments, some idea may be formed of the fearful character of the concussiou.” Horrors of the Coolie Trade.
