PARKER, C"F-RE82- S .- -r Although its uanie. would imply that it in sectarian, there is nothing taught or lectured on that bears upon religious subjects. The course of study ranges from the preparatory department to the higher branches, including architecture, chemistry, free-hnn- d drawing, lan-guages, literature, and other matters usually taught in universities. The professors are all gentlemen of culture, and the students include members of all denominations. It is sustained by the general territorial tax and tuition fees, and after .Inly will come tinder the new free school law.

In cities of the second class one trustee from each municipal ward shall be elected, and these with the mayor as chairman, shall constitute the board of education. The assessment of city school taxes in addition to the territorial tax, is pro-vided for, and every city shall consti-tute one school district; and the board of trustees shall apportion the number of school houses m their respective cities. The enforcement of the compul-sory education clause is left entirely in the hands of the chairman of the board of trustees. Salt Lake is the only city of the first class, so far as ascertained, in Utah; but the result of the coming census will no doubt make Ogdeu of the same class. The public schools of the territory are about as follows: In Salt Lake City there arc the Deserct university and twenty-tw- ward schools, and in each county there are quite a number. It Ogden there are the Central high school and a school fcr raeh ward, and in Provo there are the same facilities as in Ogdeu. Central schools of Ogden and Provo are graded institutions, that at Ogden being perhaps the best in the Ono of the objectionable features of the new system is that it does not pro-vide for a sinking fund for education il purposes, nor is there a clause provid-ing lor an endowment fund by the pur-chase and sale of government lands. Utah has always been close-hste- d in money matters, and it is the boast of her law makers that there is no terri-torial indebtedness; but the issue of bonds l mining for a long term to pro-vide for a school fun. out of winch government lands could be purchased and then sold at a large profit, would seem to have advantageous features foi educational purposes. We now come to the denominational schools. THE MORMONS. In every county of the territory, there what called Stake acwlouiics. in are f an in-glis- h which the common branc education are taught, as well as the principals of the Mormon faith. In Provo there is the Brigl.am Youngacwl-em- y and in Logan the Bngham oung lege These two institutions were Z owed by the late Brigl.am l oung and the teaching is t ie """" " Stake academies.

' COXGREGATIONAL. This denomination have a very ex-cellent system of free schools, but a charge is made in the academes and higher grade schools. In Salt Lake city there are the Hammond hall academy, with a primary department at Inde-pendence hall; the Burlington, the Phillips and the Plymouth schools. At Ogden there is the New West academy; and there are New West schools at Lyon, Hooper, Slaterville, Henneff'er, Slidwav, Coalville, Kamas, Park City, (aeadeiiiv). Provo (academy), Sandy, Lehi, West Jordan, Centerville, Farm-ingto-and Bountiful. All of these schools are under the direction of the New West Education commission, and thev are sustained by contributions from the church throughout the United States. Religious services are confined to prayers and bible reading. These are all mixed schools. CATHOLIC. The Roman Catholics are noted throughout the country for the very superior facilities thev afford to educa-tion. In Salt Lake City there is St. Mary's academv for girls and both day and boarding pupils arc re-ceived. St. Mary's is under- the direction of tho Sisters of the Holy Cross and is an excellent institution. All Hallow's college for boys is under the direction of the Marist lathers, and both day and boarding pupilsare taken. It is well patronized by all denomina-tions. The School of the Holy Cross receives only day pupils, aud is mixed as regards sex. At Ogdeu there are the Sacred Heart academy for girls, where cither day or boarding pupils are received, and St. Joseph's school for boys, without board. The Sacred Heart academy has a fine attendance at all times, and its reputa-tion for thoroughness is established throughout Utah, Idaho, Montana and Nevada. . t Park Citv there is the St. Mary s academy, a mixed day school, ami at Tintic theiv is also a mixed day school. These schools are sustained entirely by tuition fees. The couree in the h'mher grades includes the ordinary and special branches, the latter optional. Exorcises open and close with Hie Lord's Praver, and there are no other religious observances, save for members of the church. KI'IS OPAL.
