Tho“sum of $8,000 ipriated to the State ormal yg Sg balance to be diss ; iibuted pro rata among the districts thot Reports or County Scuoo. SurenJNTENDENTS-—The State Superintendent: jn_his report says, in quite a Oumber the tothe State Saperintendest to perform, and that io many cases when the figures were put town the additions were made ia violation ty every rule of arithmetié. “In one te port, out of thirty five columns of addition “only eight were correct. “Mistakes are-com{tien -of the iron-elad fect before Charleston, mon in giving the amount cf school moties. Pie State School fund is apportioned to the counties semi-annually, and it is the easiest matter in the world to get the figures cvr‘pect and yet in thereturns only ficelne coun__ty Superintendents reported correctly. The reports of the county Superintendents of . Sacramento, Sonom®, Amador, San Francis@o, Marin, Stanislays, Tuolumne, and San Mateo, only, are-named by him in the report ‘ge being in the main correct. The law proVides thut utless the county Superintendent . . shall make a full and correct report as requir‘hy law he sball-furieit the sna of $100, and the Board of Supervisors sre-required . to deduct the amount from his salary. With“Sut correct reports from these officers it is Ampossible to ascertain anything with regard to the condition of the schools. The penalty provided in tbe law should be rigidly infor-ced. How iw it possible to know that the ‘@unty ind State funds are properly used? We would suggest that the school taster be sent abroad among the enynty Superinten= . tondents, or that the Legislature make pros ‘vision lor the-appointment ef a clerk who is : capable of adding up a column of figures. _ Ten years since, says the Selano Herald, ere were twenty-one male members ol the ryesss family in that vicinity, but killing and pocidental deaths bave reduced the number to four or five.
