THE SCHOOL POPULATION.
From the Atlanta Constitution, 15th.]
This will not be enumerated again for
four years. The enumeration returns
of 1878 are used for the eight oouuties
whose school commissioners failed to
make returns this year, namely: Bryan,
Charlton, Dade, Floyd, Jefferson, McIn
tosh, Wiloox and Wilkes.
There are 48,391 more white children
than oolored. Of whites, there is a gain
of 2,922 over the census of 1870, but 10,-
266 leas of blacks, or a decrease of 13,-
334 of both races.
White. Colored. Total.
ceniuaormo an,350 iso.uo 407,605
Batumi 1174 2X1,811 172,800 304,171
2,028 15,250 13,334
The comparative atteqdanoe is thus ex
hibited by the oensus of 1870:
White. Colored. Total.
6 to IS 218,810 130145 407,505
Attendance 57,142 10,351 77,403
NoiMttondanoe 151,217 173,705 330,012
That is, over every third while child
attends school; also over every eighteenth
oolored child, being an attendSBsb oT over
five and one-fourth of the whole number.
Of the Confederate soldiers under thir
ty years of age—entitled to a pro rata
apportionment of the sohool fond—about
twelve and one-fifth per oent. are in three
counties (of the 13(1), Chatham, Floyd
and Thomas.
The number of illiterates between ten
and eighteen yean of age are not report
ed this year from sixteen counties—Bry
an, Bullook, Carroll, Chatham, Coffee,
Dade, Floyd, Forsyth,- Jefferson, McIn
tosh, Monroe, Morgan, Stewart, Sumter,
Wilcox and Wilkes. Murray county is
estimated by the State Sohool Commis
sioner ; ana estimates are made of illit
erates of all ages for Bibb, Lee and Sohley
counties. Only Savannah of Chatham,
and Jonesboro of Clayton, are reported.
Those also failing to report the number of
illiterates over eighteen are Irwin, Madi
son and Murray. Dougherty county is
estimated as above.
There are very marked discrepancies
between the enumeration returns of this
year, so far as returned, and the census of
1870; as near as can be ascertained.
