[&p<irta>ibiirg Spartan.]
3n Monday afternoon our Town was thrown
to the greatest excitement by the reprehen>le
conduct of a United States Official arming
an illicit distiller on the street and
tting accidentally shot with his own pistol,
id the pursuit of the escaping distiller, who
?s shot at as be ran through the streets,

rhe whole affair was disgraceful and was
e result of the intoxication of Davis the U.
Official who arrested Panthera second time
i a matter for which he had Just a few hours
fore been arrested and had given bond for
sappearance. Davis Is suffering severely
rhls folly, which may cost him his life, but
scan blame no one but himself for his misrtune.
Panther may be the desperate chaN

ho he Is, or what Ills character may be, he
id certain rights under the law which ought
have been respected. Davis bad no right

and certainly no circumstances can
stlfy a promiscuous crowd unauthorized by
w,pursuing and shooting at a citizen indlsimlnately.
Colored Man's Opinion of School
Fees.
ditors Preu and Bantmr :
Allow me a part in your noble Journal to
(press a few thoughts on fee bill payments
>r schools. Iu the address of Mr. w. C. Ben.
before the Teachers' Association not long
nee are to be found some of the most ptact:il
views upon this subject I have ever ?een.
(deed the whole lecture is a most masterly
ccompiishment on his part, and the bentit
that has already accrued from it deserves
lore than a passing notice. The State generliy
lias been uroused and 1 am Informed that
ir. Beriet bus been invited to deliver the
ime address before the Teachers' Association
t Anderson. This speaks for Itself. The fee
111 question is therefore the topic of my pres^
ut subject Allow hie to 6?y that I really
ie no other way to bring about a general enliuslasm
on the putt of tlie public except by
lis process Each School should be entitled
jpay for Its own sUpport something. Then
ith the aid of the State funds, much more
>in and will be accomplished in this way.
omeseetnio think that such a course will
ieet optx>K(tion by the people, but t thlhk hot.
up pose however; it does then I think that so
learcan be made the Importance of such,
nd so essential can the plun be shown, that
hese few objections will pass away as tholigh
bey had not been. Suppose for an example
be school would require of each pupil 80ttts i
hen witha humbtt of 25 scholars there won Id
e directly 87.50 from the patrons of the
chool. If the teachers salary should amount
o 825.00, then a balance of #17.00 would foot
he bill. The State funds are to do this. By
his plan you observe an afrakenlng will be
iad to the Importance of ftlucatlon. To some
xtent I have already hau fen experience that
he fee bill plan will pay-. Since the close of
he public schools we nave had one school
olngon and a good attendance of pupils.
-Jany of the patrons paid their portion
iromptly Which ls3(Wts. We see then that
Ills plan will work provided we give it a
ufflclent trial. What we alttl at then is to
till further it on and strive tor its success.
Jhere IB great good to be deHved from this
.ystem fcnd we can see lis outftropplngs aletidy.
The people seem to be more interested about
Kiucauon ana are uexmiimg u> see id ODiain
education It will cost time and means from
bein. Now then I think that it would be
vlsdom On the part of the Legislative to enLCt
a law on this subject. Bay that each
chool shall be ebtitled ttt pay Otie third ol
ts own expense^ and this to be done before a
Iruflcan be hat) ob the treasury, Let this be
inderstottU and then thefe will be an Interest
telt all through-. If the cost of cacb scholar
s aocts then let the patrtJtts know that wben
bis !s paid from him the State will pay the
>abinCe. With this system you observe, the
mtrons of tbe school will have a double claim
>n the school; 1st, unless 1 nay. my child cannot
be schooled, second, Unless 1 bay I cannot
Iraw the amount that is allowed me by th<
itate, Thirdly* the patron will naturally b<
nore Interested In the advancement or hii
Midrcn and as a consequence will feel in du
;y bound to do his part everv way. There li
n?>w le*8 Interest manifested by the people it
xiucatlon than at any other period of ou
jivlllzHtlon, and unless Rome new method li
iovised to awaken on interest We may expeci
this derogatory course to continue. Thei
fore we see at this time no better plan tin
the foe bill system as presented by Mr. Ben<
Now there Is one thing thut the puolic uhou
particularly notice In the ellort of Mr. Bem
. Mr. Benet Is not a school teacher, though h
f large educational acquirements would certal
ly he invaluable to any high ?chm
> He Is a lawyer and has upon the school que
tlon no personal claims, yet to show his tri
Interest in the advancement of the people e
: ucationally he is exerting hlmselfln this wi
' and giving much of lils time. Wehaveevei
reason therefore to feel that so worthy arc h
: etlurts thut they should be highly patroulzt
by all. Respectfully,

Printed from New Type and Illustrated ?

and Maps.
WHE work originally published under the n
J title of the NEW AMERICAS UVCLO- P
P/EDIA was commenccd In 1858, wince which
time the wide circulation which ithaa attain*
ed In all parts of the United states, and the 1
signal developments which hitve taken place I
in every hrnnch of science, literature and art, J
have induced the editors nnd publishers to
_ submit it to an exact and thorough revision,
v aud to Issue a new edition, entitled
THE AMERICAN CYCLOPAEDIA.

tive want. *
The movement of political affairs has kept
J pace with the discoveries of science, and their
j. rrultftil triplication to the Industrial and useful
arts and the convenience and refinement
of social life. Great wars and consequent revolutlonb
have occurred, Involving national
changes of peculiar moment, The civil war ?
fn of our country which was at Its height when V
IN the last volume of the old work appeared, has U
bapplly been ended,and anew courscof commercial
and Industrial activity has been commeneed.
k LARGE ACCESSION'S TO OUR GEOORAPniCAL
KNOWLEDGE HAVE BEEN MADE. m
i The great polltlctil revolutions of the lastde- f
" cade, with the natural results df the lapse of I
time, have brought Into public view a jnultl- J
tude of new men, whose names are In every
one's mouth, and of whose lives every one la Y
curious to know the particulars. Great bat- ol
2 ties have been fought and important selges nl
t maintained, of which Ihe detnlls are as yet dt
preserved only In the newspapers or in the tl!
transient publications of the day, but which n
oughtnow to u

THKNTIC HISTORY. 0t
ad In preparing the present edition for the
press. It has accordingly been the aim of the
editors to bring down the Information to the
on latest possible dates, and to furnish an accurate
account of the most recent discoveries In _
scieoce, and of every fresh production. in literature,
and of the newest Inventions in the
m. practical arts, as well as to give a succinct
and original
RECORD OF THE PROGRESS OF POLITICAL AND
HISTORICAL EVENTS.
The work was begun after long and careful
preliminary labor, and with the most ampl* _
resources for carrying it on to asuccessful ter- T
H* mination. ??
None of the original stereotype platen have
been used, but _
m' every page nas been printed on new i

forming, in fact.anew Cyclopmdia, with the
same plan und compass as Its predecessor, but
m with a far greater pecuniary expenditure,
' and with such Improvements in its cot position
as have been suggested by long expcrlm
ence and enlarged knowledge.
the illustrations, which are introduc- H
rn. ed for the first ttme p.
In the present edition, have been added not for ,
the sake of pictorial effect, but to give greater Am.
lucidity and force to the explanations in the
text. Tliey embrace all branches of science O
m. and of natural history, and.depict the most hi
famous and remarkable features of scenery,
architecture and art, as well as tho various
m. processes of mechanics and manufacturers.
Although I n tended for instruction rather than
m. embellishment,
no pains have been spared to insure
their artistic excellence. ?
n1. The cost of their execution is enormous, 11
est and It is believed they will llnd a welcome reception
as an admirable feature of the Cyclo:rn
piedla and worthy of lus high character.
