The Daily Spy

Ex-Governor Slade of Vermont is delivering lectures in Chicago on the subject of Education in the West. The National Board of Popular Education, of which Governor Slade is the agent, has sent out to the West during the last two years 110 school teachers, at a cost of about $10,000, 96 of whom are now engaged in active duty. About $8,000 of the above sum has been collected at the East, while the West, for whose benefit the enterprise has been undertaken, has only contributed a little over $2,000. It is their intention to send about thirty additional teachers into the field in the Spring.
