Its fine buildings arc .-ituated almost in the heart of the city. aud are surrounded by forty acre-, of, beautiful forest land. Jt has larger li-: braries, better buildings, a larger number of graduates, a more thorough course of study and better discipline than are usually found in institutions of the kind. The magnificent building in which our public schools are taught is a uew one, just completed at a cost of *60,000, and occupies what is known as Jefferson square, a little south of the center of the city. The schools are conducted upon the most approved plan by an able and efficient corps of instructors,

The streets are broad and well graded aud graveled, and are skirted ou either side by beautiful shade trees, which lend an attractiveness to the city during the summer months that is almost picturesque. fiood turnpike roads lead from ihe city in almost every direction in the county.

Une of the
