REPORT OF THE SCHOOL TRUSTEES To the Honorable tie Common Council of the City of Indianapolis: . The Trustees of the Public Schools of the City of Indianapolis herewith present to your Honorable Body their Fourth Annual Report of the condition of the schools: ... , census'. In the month of September a census was taken, by

direction of the School Trustees, of all the children and youth in the city between the ages of five and twenty-one. The result is as follows: Wards. Chidren between 5 and 21. 1 1,271 568 557 507 516 481 844 Total 4,739 From causes that will be explained in the course of this report we are not able to specify, as has usually been done, the numbers that have been enrolled during the year in the different Ward Schools.

The public are fully aprized that in the early part of the present year the Supreme Court of the State decided that incorporated cities had no power to levy and collect taxes for the support of public schools, other than for building and repairing houses, and for fuel. The effect of this decision was, of course, to cut off the principal part of the revenue by which the system of graded schools then existing in our city was sustained. The Trustees, after much anxious consultation as to the best method of preserving the schools in operation, resolved to call meetings of the citizens in the different wards, and submit to their consideration a plan providing for the schools on the payment of a small tuition fee, which, with the revenue still derived from the State, would it was hoped, secure that object. These meetings were quite fully attended, and the plan proposed met with general acceptance, as probably the beat that could be adopted in the exigency that had risen. A definate number of schollars was pledged by some, and specific amounts, or scholarships, subscribed by others: The experience of a single quarter, showed that this plan was not practicable. In the first inslance, the total amounts pledged in the different Wards, did not reach the sum estimated as requisite to the success of the undertaking; and a considerable portion of the sums that had been subscribed was never paid. The plan was therefore abandoned at the expiration of the quarter. ' For the remaining quarter of the school year, the Trustees entered into an agreement with the teachers, by which the latter were to have the occupancy of the buildings, paying therefore, S25 per quarter for the Hisih School House, and for the other larger houses, and $10 per quarter for the smaller they conducting the schools on their own responsibility as to compensation. ' It was, also, provided that should the income from the schools not equal the salaries formerly received by the teachers, no rent should be charged. The tuition fell considerable below that standard, and accordingly no rent was collected. , . .' " . At the time of opening the schools for the usual fall term, it was resolved by the Trustees, to allow the teachers to occupy the building on the same terms as before agreed on, except that the payment of the rent is to be absolute, and in no wise contingent upon the amout of patronage received. On this basis schools are now in operation in all the Wards of the city, except the Sixth. The house in that Ward was engaged by a lady, who was prevented by sickness from taking possesion of it when the other schools opened, and no other applicant for it has appeared. . The teachers now conducting the schools in the different Wards, were all, with a few exceptions, employed under the old system, and are all men and women of tried ability and experince. Several of their associates of equal merit, left the city when the free schools terminated Their removal, though made necessary to themselves by loss of employment, the Trustees regard as a public loss. Among those, was the late efficent Superintendent, Mr. George B. Stone, to whom our schools were mainly indebted for the sys tem and thoroughness they attained under the former arrangement. His place in the high school Dy JUr. u, Henkle, late of Richmond Ind., well known throughout the State as a thorough and successful educator, and one of the authors of a scientific work of ac knowledged merit. Ho is assisted by Miss II. P. Hinklev. also late of Richmond. The Trustees confidently recommend this school to their fellow citizens, as affording peculiar facilites for the pursuit of the classical and hiher Encrlish branches of education. Within the present school year the Trustees will have at their disnosal for school purposes, as they now expect, from funds derived from the State, a sum sufficent to sustain the schools, free and open to all, for one quarter. This will probably not be until the last ciiiarter of the school year: but due notice of such ar rangement will be given at the proper time. TIo Trustees, also, in May last, levied a tax of fif teen en,,ts to the hundred dollai-s on the State and Countv assessment, to be appropriated as follows: ten cents on the hundred dollars to the building of school 1.,. .n,l tl,o n.nvitir of balances due on lots; and Ave cents on the hundred dollars for repairs of build ings, procurin-r and repairing furniturc,.tuel, (during the free quarter,) and other incidental expenses. It is nroner that we should remind your Honorable "Rj-n-lr ilia nr Krwember 21. 1848, a purchase was made by the Common Council, for school purpose of Alfred Harrison, Esq.,as agent for joiin outer, oi ..ut No. 4. in square No. 37, (on which lot the Manon Engine House now stands,) for the sum of So 75, which i f. ,..;!. mnnev belonmnsr to the school was jjaiu tui mm j - - - Fiiml. We also desire to call your attention to the fact that on April 21, 1856 the Common Council directed t lie ni.-i.1 i : T?l,..rt. Johnson a warrant from the ietK ui issuu w r -r i School Fund for the grading and graveling of Merid ian street, in front of University Square, to the amount of which order was drawn, and paid, and the amount has never been repaid to the School una We desire to state further that ": ation of the books and accounts of the City Clerk s office ordered bv the Common Council, disclose the on, e, oracreu u Fund, on the first iuci mat mere v." ,WM,W fnr rnllav nf March 1858, the sum of $2,301 82, for cotw'ri,. tl,P. d. linnuent list not properly crettit . , ,. , i in hands of former Ireasanu lor uaianccu iviiuu" . .u.Uminii. , , :,. l.een naid over by them to the "rer'r""Z: have been credited to . the rnJ,V,U;l."ad f to the School Fund... , TanA !irvL7 -th 'a certain Z u rteth- known to us at ent, gmwjng out of the fact that the Common Council, a their meeting on ine y - . t co. that certain sums. n 1 "o , ';- n .wi oia Aa fnr the building and repairing of school :inting in aa v,tiou.es, tP'1';'; the General Fund.

Your honorable body will readily perceive from the statement made in the present report, relative to the condition of the schools, and the contraction of their usefulness which has occurred, that the Trustees should

be able to command the use of all the funds applicauie to scnoui purposes. ve, tnereiore. Dee to re quest such action on the part of your body, relative to tliis portion of our report especially, as shall put within our control, as speedily as possible, all moneys belonging to the fund of which we have charae. with nterest accruing from the several dates above speci fied. We beg further to suggest for the consideration of your body, as a question appealing to your sense of justice, whether, in the case of the lot now occupied by the Marion Eumne House, and the payment to be made for the same, it will not comport with your views to give the school fund the benefit of the increase that has occurred in the value of that lot since its purchase ten years ago. Its value has probably tripled within that time.-We trust your body will give the school fund tlve'benefit of that increase, or at least some portion of it. : ' ? ' t . : In concluding this report, the Trustees desire to ex press the regret they feel, in common with the mass of their fellow citizens, that so large a portion of the im provements recently made in the school houses of the city, (and which, though much enlarged from the for mer accommodations, were still below the public require ments,) should be for the present unoccupied and idle. auc wuik; niejf nre now pursuing is me only one leit open for them, until some future legislation shall amend the constitutional deficencies now existing in the school law, and afford the privileges of education to the poor and the rich of our population alike.All which is respectfully submitted.

( IMPROVED CONDITION OF AMERICAN, " TRADE WITH ENLAND The August accounts of the British Board of Trade, delivered a day or two before the departure of the mail, show a marked improvement in the trade between the Uuited States and Great Britain, as com pared with the earlier months of the present year. The total declared value of the exports of British manufactures and produce was 11,134,763, against 21,638,805 in the corresponding month of last year; whilst the aggregate exports of the eight months ending Aug. 31, are valued at 75,496,564, against 84,1)00,718, in the same period of 1857. In the cotton trade, and certain branches of the iron trade, the exports of August even exceeded those of the correspond months of last year. The calicoes, cambrics, muslins, fustians, and mixed stuffs exported during the month amounted in quantity to 212,471,191 yards, and in value to 2,926,982, against 169,678,545 yards and 2,505,922. In lace, net, hose, and small wares, there was a falling off, but it was more than compen sated by the increased foreign demand for sewing cotton ; and there was a considerable increase in the exportation of cotton yarns, chiefly to India, the total value being i.851,310, against t832,883. The exports to the United States are still, as regards most com modities, below those of last year, but a comparison with the traue or eight months will show that there has been a considerable improvement, as compared with the earlier portion of the year. This will be apparent from the following table, which shows the value of the principal exports to the United States in each of the undermentioned periods August, 1857.

The country of growth not being specified in respect of provisions, rice, tobacco, and many other articles. As regards the all-important article r of cotton, the imports during -the month amounted to 598,219 cwts., against 814,063 cwts. in the respective corresponding periods ot last year. The total imports of the month were 681,382 cwts., and of the eight months, 6,787 814 cwts., the returns for the corresponding periods of last year showing 480, 806 cwts. and 6, 327,41 7 cwts.; The supply from India has fallen off very much, and the same may be said of Brazil, but trom J-gypt and the unenumerated sources of supply there was an increase.,. The im portation of American wheat was 96,506 qrs., against 23,048 qrs.; or during the eight months, 4bo,o qrs., against 348, 685 qrs. The total supplies of the month amounted to 373,774 qrs., against 283,480 qrs., and of the eight months, to 3,120,216 qrs., against 1,857,527. There was also an increased supply trom Russia and Egypt, and large arrivals from Turkey; but the imports from other countries were below those of the corresponding period of last year: American flour, to the extent of 197,291 cwts., was imported during the month, against 7,579 cwts. last year; and 1,536,083 cwts. were imported during the eight months, against 931,018 cwt. The total imports of flour were 247,400 cwt. during the month, against 72,532 cwts.; and 3,039,855 cwts., against 1,245,280 cwts. duringthe eight months. The bullion and specie accounts show the balance to have been still in favor of England. There were ho remittances to the United States during the month, whilst the receipts were 473,507 nearly all in gold. ; From British Columbia gold was exported to the amount of 3,668, this being the first oflicial record Of gold arrivals from that quarter.! The shipping accounts show, a diminution in the num ber and tonnage of vessels entered at ana cleared from British ports ; the entries being 3,504 vessels and 936,304 tons, against 3,894 vessels and 969,798 tons. The decrease was confined, however, to the British, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Prussian, Dutch and Belgian flags, all the rest have increased. Under the flag of the United States 138 vessels entered, whose aggregate tonnage amounted to 124,181 tons, against 107 vessels and 95,709 tons in the corresponding months of last year. The clearances under all flags were more numerous than the entries, being 4,397, but they were proportionately below those of last year. The clearances under the American flag were 147 against 120 and their tonnage 134,d24 tons, against 106,321 tons. Of the total entries, the largest amount of tonnage, without reference to flags, was from British possessions in North America, Russia and the United States holding the second and third places respectively ; the arrivals from American ports being 108,503 tons, against 71,388 tons. Of the departures, however, the United States had by far the largest share, namely, 1 28,358 tons, against 94,158 tons in the August of last year. France holds the second place,-and then come the Hanseatio ports. The arrivals and departures of the eight months endins Aug. 31 show an increase" of the former, as com pared with the first eight months of 1857, for Russia, Norway,': France, Belgium, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Turkey, Greece, Egypt, India, Central America and United States ; and of the latter, for Russia, Prussia, Holland, Belgium, Spain, Italy Greece and Cental America.-AT. . Times. ' s-. , - i ; :. .. Silver Coin at a Discount. It is note-worthy that at the present time the bills of country banks in New York are actually worth more in the market than specie ; and such notes hoarded up while silver is paid out. A person has $1,000 wages to pay on Saturday. Instead of paying in country bank-notes, he buys $1,000 in silver for $995 bank money, and saves $5, "at the same time paying specie to his men. Great dissatisfaction is expressed at the accumulation of quan tities of silver coin, at all retail establishments. The banks will not take it on deposit ; it can not be sold in large quantities, except at a discount.

Who the Deuce Was It ? Brown tells nsa. Ver mont atory which, he says, is as authentic as the best of The Post anecdotes, and, certainly, nothing more can be required. A respectable gentleman in Windsor county, many years ago, had an ambition to represent his town in the. State Legislature. Though a mart of good character, and every way able enough for the oilice he sought, he happened, as Aunt Peggy used to say, to have " a great many winnning ways to make folks hate him," and was, in fact, the most unpopular man in town. Going to 'Squire X., an influential man who happened to be friendly to him, he laid his case before him, and asked his influence ; saying that he didn't expect help without paying for it, and declaring that if he could get X.'s influence he was sure to be elected. The 'Squire " put in his best jumps" for his man ; but when the ballot-box was turned, another man was declared elected." The disappointed candidate called out to know how the votes stood, and learned that he had got just three votes! " But I don't understand it," said he, turning to the 'Squire with a chop-fallen countenance. " Nor I either," said the 'Squire, u I put in my vote ; you put in another ; but who the d 1 put in the third is more than 1 can imagine J" .Boston Post. " 1 ; IS?" A complete list of the passengers on the ill-fated steamer Austria has been received by the Europa. Of the four hundred and thirty-two passengers, only sixty-one are known to be saved. The list of officers and crew has hot been received. The agent thinks it not unlikely that a duplicate was not preserved. Those of the officers and crew saved have already been published.

Hog Market. For future delivery there has not been much done the past week,though prices haye advanced, and about 1,400 h"ad have sold on Saturday and Monday at $5 75 net, to be delivered (luring all December. For December delivery there is a good demand at this rate, but not for November. We notice an anxiety to' sell in some sections of the country, owing to a fear of the hog disease. The active demand for and advance in provisions, is stimulating the market somewhat, and giving dealers more confidence in the future. The evidences are clear in favor of a good supply of the animals, and their good condition. Cincinnati Price Current, October 27.

The DAILY GLOHE will contuin a report of the Debates in both brandies of Congress as taken down by reporters equal, at least, to any corps of shorthand writers in this, or iu any other country. W lieu the debutes of ihe day do not make more than forty-five columns, they ahull apper ill the Dailt Globe of the next morning, whic h will contain, also, the news of the day, together with such editorial articles as may be suggested by passing events. The Congressional Globe and Appkndix will contain a report of all tho Debates in Congress, revised by the speakers, the Messages of the President of the United Slates, the Annual Reports of the Heads of the Executive Department, the Reports of Committees of Congress on important subjects of general interest, the Laws, passed during the session, and copious indexes to all. They will be printed on a double royal sheet, in book form, royal quarto size, each number containing sixteen pages, averaging 2,397 words per page, The .avJioIb will make between l,u0 and 2.00 pages. It is believed that no book has ever been published atso low urate. Last year I advertised iu the Daily Globe, for six months, and in about one hundred other newspapers iu the Uuited States, a reward of$-il5, to be paid to any person who would produce a book published at so low a rate, and none was produced. Tho large number of copies subscribed for by Congress enables me to aford tho Debates to subscribers so cheap. The Conoressional Globe and Appendix pass free through the mails ol the United States, as will be seen by reading the following joint reflation by Congress the litis nf Atlgust, 1852 : JOINT RESOLUTION providing for the distribution of tbo I.nws of Congress and the Debates thereon : With a view to the cheap circulation of the laws of Congress and the debates contributing to the true interpretation thereof, and to make free the communication between the representative and constituent bodies Be it retolved by tht Senate and Houee of Representative of the United Stutet of America, in Congress assembled. That from and after '.he presont session of Congress, the Congressional Globe and Appendix, which contain the laws and the debates thereon, shall pass free through the mails so long as the same shall be published by order of Congress: Prooided, that nothing herein shall be construed to authorize the circulation of tho Daily Globe freo of postage. Approved Augusto, 1852. mi TERMS ; '. . ; Foi a copy of the Daily Gloho, four months ...$3 1)0 For a copy for a less time, (per month) 1 (0 For a copy of tho Congressional Globe and Appendix during the sessiou 3 00 Bank notes, current in the section of the country where a . subscriber resides, will be received at par. The whole or any part of a subscription may be remitted in postage stamps, which are preferable to any currency, except gold or silver. Where bank notes under $5 cannot be procured, I will send ' two copies for $5. A paper will not be sent unless the money accompanies the order for it. ' I cannot afford to exchange with all the newspapers that desire the Globe: but I will send the Daily Globe during the session to all who shall publish this prospectus three times before the first Monday of next December. Those who may publish should send their papers containing It to me, marked with a pen, to direct attention to it. The Concessional Globe and Appendix will be stereotyped ; and, therefore, I shall be able to send the back numbers for this session to all who may subscribe after the session commences; but If the first edition shall have been exhausted before Ihe subscription money is received, 1 shall charge $1 additional per copy to pay the ex. pense of putting the plates on the press. Subscriptions should reach me as early as the first week of December, to insure complete conies at the prices advertised above. ' . JOHN C. RIVES. . l; Washington. D.
