CITY NORMAL AND TRAINING SCHOOLS. NOTE.-There are some other institutions which would have been included in the foregoing tables, had the catalogues or lists of officers and students been received in time. New York and several other cities have Saturday Normal and Training Schools, designed principally for the teachers of the public schools. In several of the Western States there are county and private Normal Schools, and in the Southern States more than 30 Normal Schools have been established for freedmen, which are not included in the above tables. AGRICULTURAL AND SCIENTIFIC SCHOOLS. The following table shows the number of acres to which each State is entitled under the Act donating land to the States and Territories for Agricultural Colleges, (provided Congress removes the disability of States that have not complied with the provisions of the bill), and other general facts relative to the acceptance of the grant by the State legislatures and the location of Colleges, so far as they have been established: STATES.

A. Briggs for the Chicago report of 1867, the other by W. H. Parker for the Philadelphia report for 1867), it will be seen that the results differ in some respects; but the difference may be accounted for, in the main, by the fact that the original reports, from which these tables are drawn, either cover different points of time, or include different elements. For instance, the total expense of schools in San Francisco and St. Louis does not include the cost of lots, new buildings, and the debts of previous years, which, in San Francisco, amounted to $297,000, and in St. Louis, according to their "historical table," to $192,158. |
