CAROLINA SPARTAN. From tho Anderson Gazette. Mute College, and the military Academies, "The Walereo Division, No. 9. Sons of Temperance, and tho Cadets of Temperance thereto attached, togethor with a number of /{ the citizens of Cntndon, not luombors of either organisation, cclebiated tho 4th in Camden in Temperance stylo, and with somo enthusiasm. Among tho regular toasts which were presented on tho occasion wo find the following: The South Carolina College and State jMditarg Academies: Noblo institutions of learning, amply attesting the fostering caro of the State fur tho offspring of hor whole people. Bet them inculcato a high-rnornHtr as well as an elevated standard of learn.J lin lUg. Messrs. James II. Kosser, U. P. Bonney, JU. w. i?e5>a?ssure, J. L>ang, J. uavis, John 1). Kennedy, ami J. Chesnut, Jr., responded to tho sentiment in behalf of the South Car- 11 olina College, and Mr. Thos. 11. Cnntey as 111 tlio representative of tho Military Academies. At tho celebration in the village of Lancaster, we find the following among the regular toasts: The South Carolina College: Destroy*it, and you knock out the right eye of South Carolina. The Citadel Academy: Wo may look ]) to it both as a source of intelligence and a 111 moans of defence." w Aud thereupon tho Carolina Times proceeds in a strain of intlated bombast to laud the South Carolina College to tho skies, aud denounce those who have raised their th voices against tho management of it deningoguea and brawlers. We unqualifiedly of endorso tho sentiments as applying to the tli Military Academies, but in reference to the South Carolina College we totally dissent, it! Wo admit that it is a "tioblo institution of p. learning," but d?ny that it "amply attests c tho fostering care of tho State for tho offspring of her whole people." Tho Military Academies are adapted to tho wants of the peoplo of tho whole State, the South Caro- |l( lina College is not. All of thorn are sup- N) ported by the munificence of the State. The Military Academies, in return for the tt( State appropriation, annually recoivc a large u j number cf b> ne6ciaries, who are boarded, lodged and educated, while tho South Carolina College docs not educato a single beneficiary, although it receives an annual appropraticn of twenty jive thousand dol . . Of Is there mot a marked difference in the , i . Ol management of the two institutions: Tho South Carolina College has cost the , Stnto in round numbers One Million of Dollars! Kadi irraduute li.i? rent lliflStiniu - O ?~ ----- j Eight Hundred Dollars What have we received in roturn for this vast amount of ^ money? Can you point to one man educato-'. nt t!;o expense of the State out of this Inl sutu? Not one. There aro two kencficiaiies from the Orphan House in Charleston, but there is an extra appropriation made for their benefit. Again, the courso of study, and the system of education pursued in the South Carolina College, are unsuiled to the gieat mass of the people. The regular College curri- jj jtulum virtually excludes all who have not the time and money to pursue the regular nt course. For instance, a farmer who desiies to educate his son iti the branches pertain- re ing to his profession, cannot enter him in w the South Carolina College unless ho takes tho whole course. This is a serious objec- 50 tion, and it annually drives a large number ,!l of youog men out of iho State to receive UP an education. *n Wo would respectfully imjuiro what dis- th. position is made of tho tuition fund arising from the South Carolina College? It does not go to pay the Professors' salaries, for they are paid by the State. When an ef A fort was made in the Legislature to pay the n'i tuition fuud into the State Treasury, it was P1 VOtcd rforr/1. The. tuition fund for !t> ten yeau would aveiago in rouud numbers tb ten thousand dollars per annum. This amount added to the annual appropriation would swell the sum to thirty Jive thousand dollars. We are inclined to the opinion by that this is "paying dear for tho whistle." ni The people too will think so when the question is brought rightly before them, as it tai will be done. A certain portion of the np press and the people of this State have to mi loam that even the South Carolina College w| is a projajr subject of investigation, and that so men aro not to bo denounced as dema- t?-i g )gue> who hare the independence tc ?ry out (r> against the mismanagement of that insti n lotion. We aro not opposed to the South ! ,j, Carolina Collogo per sc, but we object to j ^ this extravagant expenditure, when 110 re- ul turn wliatover is made to tho State. , Sikol'i.ar Phenomenon.? A remaikahle meteoric rpc tucle was witnessed yesterday I;|1 afternoon, 8th July, at a few minutes after ; " ft o'clock, in a 60Uthea>t direction from this , city. In nppeaiance it was a large ball of i n fire, descending rapidly towards the earth, fn tti the manner of a "fhooting star/' leaving ji ?n its train a white flame. Its descent was ! r(l continuous until hid by the intervening 1 ?r hou.es.

Tito South Carolina Railroad, under ihc lash of a Tl line of competing stenniboats, will reduce ita Ireglil charges between Columbia uu?I Charleston. We b? notice, (>Uo, that candidate* for the Ia-gislature in la! Richland arc called upon to aid in repealing the net of 1852 by which that road was allowed to eon- ri< struct a permanent bridge over the Congnree Riv- nt er, which impedes steamboats nt high water. of We (singular number) admonished up-country ui j members, by pcrsoual importunity, nt the time, of foi the consequences of this measure; but could only ai rouse three voices to break the monotony of ncqui- to escenee in the bill. Richland went for it unanimously, and almost deserves her lute. (s Wc hopo something, however, will be done in the matter. It is not right tlmt tho entire upper Pi districts should suffer to benefit a corporation. To our minds it is no answer to allege that under the ot authority given by law the compnny have incurred expense in the erection of a permanent structure, In and that it is a vested interest. The Legislature G has no power to vacate its authority. To alter, amend, or repeal obnoxious laws, or laws opera- tli ting injuriously upon the people, is an inherent right delegated by sovereigns, and cannot be parted ?>l with by agents. The "Legislature is beginning to recognise the correctness of this principle, by reserving the pow- 0( cr of alteration, amendment, and repeal in charters M of recent enactment, and the people should watch , with solicitude that the reform becomes complete. highTr'Tiw. j The Carolina Times waxes wroth these hot days . ni over the r?movnl of Gi n.
