† As 131 of the Chinese are employed in the Water Police where the Europeans in charge of the Boats get credit for all Prisoners, this Return is not reliable as regards European and Chinese Members of the Force. In the Out-Stations where a Number of the Sikhs are stationed they have not the same opportunity of bringing up Cases as other Tulians, most of whom de duty in Victoria.

SIR,
APPENDIX
C. VANDELEUR CREAGH,
Acting Captain Superintendent of Police.
CENTRAL SCHOOL, February 14th, 1870.
1. In compliance with your request, I beg to submit the following Report on the Police School, for the year ended 31st
Within a fortnight, these numbers increased to
December, 1869.
2. The classes were opened on the 1st October 1860.
Present,

3. At first an endeavour was made to teach each race apart, but owing to the diversity of the men's attainments, the staff at my disposal,-which under ordinary circumstances was ample,-would not admit of it.
The Euro-
4. On the 14th October, the most advanced of the Indians and Chinese were sent into the Europeans' Class. peans objected to their being there, asserting that to have to sit at the same table with Indians and Chinese, would lower them in the eyes of these people. Argument having failed to convince them to the contrary, they left almost in a body.
At the end of the year they had fallen off to 4.
5. Of the Indians, as Pupils, I cannot speak too highly. If I may use such an expression, most of them are "greedy" for instruction. This is shown in many ways; for instance they carry their book always with them, so as to occupy their spare time in reading. Whenever they can make friends with any of the European children, they embrace the opportunity of getting a lesson from them. Consequently their progress, for the time they have been under instruction, is considerable.
The number of Indians attending School on the 31st December was 42.
6. The Chinese class has greatly disappointed me. At the beginning, I was inclined to believe it would have been a success, whereas it has been just the contrary. Two causes have produced this effect:
1st. The men were under the impression that English could be acquired with very little labour on their part. As a rule not care to learn either Reading or Writing, but wished to be taught "pidgin English." This of course could not
the nu
be "complied with, consequently some left.
ค
L
2nd. At the end of the year a reduction was made, in the number of Chinese employed in the Police Force. Some of the
men attending school were among the number discharged.
At the end of the year the number in the Chinese class was reduced to 10.
7. Attendance on the 31st December, 1869:
Europeans,
Indians, Chinese,
Total,..
8. The Class Rooms are large, well ventilated, and well lit with gas.
9. The School Materials, which have been borrowed from the Government Central School, are good,
10. In spite of the break-down of the European and Chinese classes, I cannot think that the money so generously given
for the education of the Police, is wasted. I feel convinced that it will produce a good effect upon the character and usefulness of the force. If it does nothing more, it keeps 50 men from idleness, and retains a large portion of that number in the Police Barracks, where their services are always available in cases of Fire and other emergencies.
11. In conclusion, I have to thank all the officers of the Police Force, for the readiness with which they have furnished
me with all I have required, and for their constant support in assisting me in carrying on my duties. I am, Sir, Your most obedient Servant.
