These delects are not serious; they will bo remedied by time and the increasing power and skill of the teachers, a id by the inherent virtue of the public school eystem itself. In the main the schools arc in a satisfactory condi tion, doing gool work, and constantly improving. The organization and classification ere nearly perfect; the course of study is liberal and well planned, admir ably combining tbc practical, the disciplinary and the esthetics; and the teachers are rapidly improving both the instruction atd the discipline of their schools.

It is, there fore, properly left to private instruction, and is attend ed to in timo outside of the regular school hours. Vocal music occupies a place in the regular course of study and is taught In nearly all the schools. The instruction is given by the regular teachers, but, since few of them are specially qualifi d to givo instruction in this branch, the roaulu arc not so satisfactory iu all the schools as could bo desire 1. Stift, they, by exchanging with one another or by combining two or more classes, aro enabled to accomplish very credita ble results. The children aro taught to read simple music, to sing in correct timo and some attention is given to musical taste and cxpleesion. A special teacher iu this department is greatly needed, to instruct the regular teacher aud super vise the work in the schools. The propriety of in troducing vocal music into the schools is generally admitted, but it is by many considered only a recrea tion—an amusement. It is more than this—it is a refiuiug influence in the school.

The two c!asscs ia the High Schools, consisting cf fifty girls and forty-five boys, who were received at the bfgluxiiog of the school year, lave been very successful in their work, aud alt of them who have been in attendance throughout the year have been advanced to the next grad?.

He cama from the grave leaving Ilia na'ionality be hind Him, end rising above all national distinctions. He told His disciples to “Go into all tho world and preach the gospel to every creature.

Go teach all nations, baptising them in tbo name ol the Father and of the Son nnd of the Holy Ghost, teaching them to ; observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you; j and lo, I am with you alway, even ento the end of the world.” Christ said it, Qnd as He is incapable of deception, faith in, and obedience to the gospel so nnies to man remission of Ms ftins, no ma'ter from whence cimc, b? ho Jow or Gentile, ! bond or free.

COLORED SCHOOLS. Tbcro are three schools for colored child* en under the care and supervision of the l*<>ard. Tho Storrs School, on Houston street, was originally established, and for several years maintained by the American Missionary Association. The building and grounds are owned by that tociety, bnt are given to the Board free of lent, the American Missionary So ciety nominating the teachers subjocl to exawiuation and approval of tiio Beard of Education. The Summer Hill School, on street, was estab lished by the Freodmeu'a Aid Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and tho house and grounds are now owned by that society. The house is given to the Board Ires of rent, the Beard appointing toachera, and agreeing to keep the building and grounds in or- dor. The Haynes street school occupies the bnildiug kwowu as the old Friendship Baptist Church, (colored,) corner of Haynes and Mangham stroets. The house was rented on the 1st of January, 1873. It is divided into lour rooms atd accommodates 250 scholars. These three schools have received nearly all appli cants during the year just Closed, but the schools were very much crowded. It will probably be necessary to considerably increase the accommodations for another year. It will be be tter to enlarge tho present schools, if practicable, than to increase the number cf schools.
