No public schools in St. John Parish this year. In St. James and St. Charles the public schools will close at the end of this month.

We have received from the plantation of Andre Triche, Esq. of St. John, a stalk of sugar cane containing four red joints.

The courthouse road is getting worse every day. Cannot the police jury appropriate a few dollars and have the same repaired.

The fair in St. John was a success. It will net about $4000, half for Charity Hospital and the other to the Catholic Church of Father Badail, one of the best priests in Louisiana. Much of the success is due to Dr. Howards who planned the whole of the fair.

The police of St. James ordered all records in the clerk's office from 1809 to 1880 to be bound in volumes. This is a good example for our police jury to follow.
