The falling off in the voting population, or White Males over 21 years old, in some of the counties, is owing to the fact that, between 1846 and 1870, one or more new coan- ties were formed out of parts of those counties. The residents thus cut off are enumer. ated with the new counties, and shown in the total increase.
The returns in the office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction give the total number of school children in Kentucky. for the school year of 1870, at 389,836, and for 1871, at 405,427-an increase of 15,591.
