| ? !" " ? The Press and Banner.;' ) g^== } 13y IIu-li WiUon. Wednesday, Oct. 10, 1883, The Indiscreet Argus. Wo ropy it) another jwrt of tlie Pew anrl Banner an article from the last 1 ^vcek'n issue of the.V^^t'ia Argus on tin subject of public education. That paper 110 doubt spoke tho honest sentiments o its editors, (and. betw een you and us, o uine-tonths of tlio tax-paying people o. ^ the State) but tho custom of whooping \ tip for Northern eyes, and New England J fears, the pretense of an intense anxiety ' <>n our part for the education of the netrfo has become ho common that it is a ' dangerous act for any man to tell the < pubiia the plnin unvarnished truth about J "tho matter. We are seriously alarmed i for the personal safely of the editors of , the A rgns in thus exposing the great po- I litical serret of the tax-payers of the \ & nte of South Carolina. It cannot in our 1 opinion, be truthfully and sincerely j claimed that our people, as a whole, 1 want to pay this school tax. It is an i cftlious burden, fraught with evil to the ; very rati*? which it wouldjadvimce. Sta- i tistics and observation prove this beyond j "ft doubt. And the hardihood ot the Ar- I ?7??'lnj exposing Jthe hollow mockery of . our pretense of personal interest in the j education of the negro may prove a seri- i o\is matter to our neighbor. He will be considered as an informer?as one who i has let out the great political secret. For j tills exposure that paper win nououiuii Bufifcr, even if Us'editors aro not lynched ] on the spot. After the ten thousand edi- i tori.-il and political declaration*,{that we | base" nPgro education as second only to j tho salvation of our own louls, the Argus i tells the plain unvarnished truth, that we ! care not a cent for the education of the i hegro or anybody else at public expense. f7>r exposing the true condition of affairs 1 in South Carolina, the Argus will be de- , nounced, as has every other man who has had the temerity to tell the actual sentitnont of the tax-payort of this Commonwealth. We believe th?re is not the faint, est shadow of the ghost of fact in any assertion that a majority of our tax-pay- ' ers really Want to appropriate one-third , nf their taxes to educational purposes un-Jj der a system which demoralizes the parenta of our children, and which system1 has in fifteen .years increased the per! cent of illiteracy among the white people from six to nineteen per cent. Is not the ' for ftducntion at nublic cxnense; the merest delusion, and used to ad vance the interest of politicians and com- j, munists? That there are a few honest j J citizens who sincerely and truly believe'in e lucation at public expense we do not j deny, but we believe the majority of 1' tax-payers, can easilj' enough see the fal-: J lacy of the pretense that it is well for the I State to take charge of our children, and j i educate them at other people's expense. ' Education, so far as moral* are concern- i ?d, isa negative, and has hothing at all j j to do with the morality of the citizen. 1 The educated and cultured white people , r?f Massachusetts to-day furnish a greater j per cent, of criminals than do the illiter-1 ( ate hegroes of South Carolina. If any- 1 hrt^y denies this statement, wo challenge ( statistics to prove the denial. , Scarlet ^Fcter. 1 - v, . There was quito a ripple among the <Mirb-stone clubs yesterday from a^f report that Dr. Gary had prononc- j ed one of his patients to be sick ofjt ?carlet fever. Dr. Gary left yesterday fori Columbia, and wo did not have an oppor- > tunity to interview him on the subject af-, ter wo heard the report, but wo think we i hazard nothing in advancing the opinion j that there is a mistako somewhere in | reference to this matter. We are inclined ! to believe that our people are worse; t cared than hurt. But as the talk is j about scarlet fever, we quote from Apple- j ton's Cyloppedia: |?. i \ "As a rule ibe disease is oxpcricnccd | bnt once, Hut exceptions are not very !; rare. Children are much more suscepti-jfc ble to the special cause than adults. 1 After 40 yearn of ago the susceptibility ) generally ceases. Children under two years rarely contract the dssease." "There are no known remedies which i exert a specitic control over this disease, | more than over I he continued and the ' other eruptive fevers. Care during con-!)] valescence in scarlet fever is considered ! as especially important with Reference to .\ the liability to the affection of tho kid-}k ?eys. This care relates particularly to I d exposure to cold; and a fa"t important to 'c bo borne in mind is, that this affection of " the kidneys as often follows mild as se-'H vere caseof scarlet fever. j b "Belladonna has been supposed to: {' afford protection against this disease after ( " exposure to the infection. This is not!}, certain. Complete protection can bo sp-'ci rurerl only by avoiding the infection!d through contact or proximity to pa-!/' tients, and disinfecting everything to j J convey It." From Chambers Encyclopaedia we take w the following : j ? "There in no complaint in which the K final result is more uncertain than this, I*1 and tho physician should give a vcry|p guarded opinion as to how any special | J caw may terminate. j P "Whether the disease is contagions: Jj! throughout its course, or only at one u particular period, is unknown;" and ito the physician is asked at what period the i tl danger of imparting the disea?o on the!*1 ono hand, or catching it on th* other, is|jj over, he should candidly declare that hoi does not know. That contagion remains b attached to funiture, clothing, &<!., for alt Ir.ng period is undoubted. Dr. Watson 1 4 gives a remarkaMe instance of a small j* piece of in footed flannel communicating d % tho disease after the interval or a year. j e "The popular delusion that scarlatina 1 _ . is a mild diminutive form of .scarlet;}1 /ever should always be corrected, as tho ? error, if uncorrected, may do much harm <> " l?y leading to a disreifard of those pre-.o cautions which aro always necessary in 'j s. this disease."

We believe that ttie protective tariff" Is ruin duk to the very Industries which it pretends t< protect. It Increases the cost of proilnctloi and thus keep* us from competing In (he foi eign markets; by its bounties it induces ah normal and unnatural investments, and tiiu i-auses over-production, resulting In tluctuii tint: markets, stagnation in business. an< such disastrous failures and sacrifices as Ihes Industries are now experiencing; it prevent competition, and thus hinders the full devel opment of our resources; It is a restraint uji on commerce, and forccs trade into unnatur al channels, thus depriving us of stabliity li commercial affairs, and teaching our manu facturers to look lo Congress rather than li Iheirown enterprise and abilities forsucccs in business; and. coupled with the naviea !lon laws, it has nearly destroyed our met chant marine, thus depriving us of one of ou greatest indust'ies. and making us dependen upon other nations to carry our products ti the markets of the world.

[Cotton IHanter,] "A healthy man or woman does not die of a iroken heart," a well known physician said A healthy heart is only a bit; muscle, and noiody can have grief enough to break It Vhen, therefore, a blooming young widow hows apparently inconceivable grief at the leath of her husband, and in a short time reovers her equanimity, she ou^ht not to be ccused ot hypocrisy. Neither may it be conluded that another widow who soon pines nd die* has hud more atlectlon for her husand lhan the Hist. The flrst widow may ave had even more affection lhan the other, ui have been sustained by physical health. "It is erroneous to suppose that death by eart disease Is always sudden. It Is very innmonly protracted for years, and exists tinelected by most skillful physicians, only to e developed by some sudden occuirence. here was an eminent physician of Brooklyn, i active practice, who died within an hour of lie time when he was about to lecture He ,.ii un null llmt nllop I inn tl V Kit i 11 <>i 1 hysicinus of a tlrst-class Insurance compay, ho was declared to bo perfectly sound.unit policy for fc'10,'00 insurance on his life rcaehtl his home before his body was cold.

Any Mile excitement might liavedone It. The exer1011 of grief might have done it. and then is death would have been cited us that from broken in-art. "So-called deaths from broken hearts may e frequently traced in this way. One exerloii as well us a not iter may furnish the reuisite culmination.

"The ease of Hill Poole, living for several ays with a ball In his heart, Is often spoken f as remarkable; but Dr. Flint records a ease i here a man had u ball In Ms heart for tweny years, and finally died of pneumonia.

Tupper, in the Bee and Poultry Monthly, suguesls that every bee keeper ou^ht. to have his hives made during winter, ready 1 dm tninmnr's whether lie nC 'ilK I wn 'l or three; or as ninny hundred. ' In the multitude of bee hives, patented or , not, each and every one of them. In theopln' Ion oft he maker and the patentee, I he'"greatest and only show on earth," It is difficult forii novice, or even a boe-keeper of some experience. to decide which Ik best. The temptation Is treat to try every promising new hive, and we hnv3 seen apiaries that were second only l to the patent oIHeeat Washington as a curl-1 :!oslty. we nre not going to natneany of them ; as prefeiable to all others.. We are not fond . of "treading on people's toes." Many of tlie j patented hives have good features?some are i; nearly perfect?and yet the very best of them I will not do the work of either bee-keeper or been, and that Is Just what some people expect a hive to do ! It in also what Home pati entees claim their hive will do. j As consistently might one buy a plow or harrow and put Into a Held, oxpectin;; It to do : his work for him. I Neither will bcos <lo any better In the best | hive, u-tthout axsistancc, than In the roughest ! gum orsalt barrel. | The sole nil vantage In modern hive over the . old style, is to give the bee-keeper perfect con* i , trol ot his bees so that he can know their ex' net coiidlllon at nil times and cniitrol ami nld I | them when they need help and control. We! I hnve nil seen patent hives In which bees were I so far beyond any control as in n box hive,) land yet the owners expected great tilings of I them because the hive was nice. There have been great Improvements in the facility with which hives can be opened and examined., > and also in the method of securing honey in l the comb or with the extractor, but to secure j i these advantages a little expense Is necessary, j i The he-keeper, wishing to experiment and to have his bees in fancy Shane without regard j i to expense, can make his hives as nicely and j j as complicated ns he chooses. To the beginner, und the person who keeps bees for the ! profit there Is in them, 'hey should be made ns cheaply and simply as possible, having re-j jgard only to certain reiiulslt.es which we deem ; | absolutely necessary for profitable bee-keep- \ j (lie. j First. To keep bees either for pleasure or | 1 profit, the movable frame in some form must be In every hive. There Is no other way to I make the matter n certainty by having the, absolute control of the bees. , Second. These frames may be used In a! square box, or oblong shallow hive?large or j H111M11 lis Illil.v iii'Mi jin.ini.- iuv umii'i, i? <i much prefer a hive a? nearly square as possible and have bust success witli the frames in j : such 111 VCS. ! Third. These frames should be nrrnnged so; 1 as to fit perfectly, move easily, and sons not > to touch any of the walls of the hive and yet I | not be more than three-eights of an inch dis-' tance from them. | Fourth. The hives should be nit alike so that every frame will fit every hive in your apiary. Fifth. When increase of stin k is desired I ! the hives must not be more than one foot square inside every way; but II largest , amounts of honey are desired, they maybe i made much larger and will more surely secure that object. These hives are furnished ready to nail together so cheaply that it. is poor economy to ! | buy In any other way. In the "knock down," j with one hive nut together as a guide, liny ; : woman can nail and paint them. j The poorest of all economy Is tohnve hives 1 I poorly made of unseasoned lumber. A hive ; should be a "perpetual Institution.-' and how- ! lever simple, should be well made In every j particular.

Possessing our Souls in Patience. MMociutc Reformed Ih-rxbylrri'in.] In many part* of the country, the present year Is not proving a prosperous one. as men count prosperity. The rains from heaven I have not been so abundant nor the seasons so rru 11 fXil as usual. The last, and principal harvests, which are now being gathered, are light. Farming Is not yielding Its wonted profits, and every other business will feel a measure of st raiuiess. At such a lltne.lt is not hardTor the Christian, as well as others, tolgive way to the feelings of nnctsinpss and despondency.. The farmer. n< he considers his barns that nre not tilling, or the mer chant, as lie marks his diminished sales, can easily fall into a restless and disquieted spirit, N<> doubt, there are not a few union? i:s wlin are alrendy In this mood. No doubt there are more who feel themselves strongly drawn in the stili ft direction ; who have much work to keep off the repining, fretful thoughts. It will not be of the least service to any of lis tr iipnmi nvi.r the si ton I Ion. or. from the stand .point simply of our fueling*, to discuss wlml we sbn'l do. That \vc in -y walk uprltrhtlj |nnd safely under the cross. that we mayj;uld? even our torn porn I affairs with illscretlon. w? tnusll'Kik ft' th'* K;tiif>tlon soberly and as b^ coincth Iho-c profi s-ing uodllness. The thln<?< which In our disquietude we are ready to pio pose to ourselves lire tiic very tilings that we should be slow to do. We should he careful how we make up oni minds to move. It Is easy to say. "I can'l mako anything here: I shall sell cut and gn to another State." Hut It Is a serious step u take?always of uncertain, often of disastrous consequences. Is tlie Christian father an?J I husband, who so resolves, sure that he is himself fully persuaded in the matter? Ik It. his 'calm, deliberate, prayerful judgment, or r ! hasty and rash determination? What says the tjood mother anil wife, whose faith if I st.roneer and whose Judgment he has nevei found worse than his own ? | We should be slow. In an adverse year like | this, to cut down our conlritnitfan* to the enterJ prise of the church. It Is true that we ore tr mve as God has prospered us. Hut It does nol therefore follow that wo are to eivc nothinc this year, for Cod has clvon lis some measure j of blessing. Nor does It certainly follow thai ; we are to nlve less this year than usual. Foi I have we been wont to ulve as God propercd jus? Is It certain that our usual elfts havf borne any proper proportion to what we rejcelved? If we contribute this yearall thai I we did last year, will we do more than elve as I wc ought? It I*. when In lean years we give 11lie mil measure <i; nti yettr*, unit we ni>i?>ii'n [come nearest th? ru'eof duty. In a year like | this, the pastors and th<* various causes ol lie church will receive few special tjlfts ; and j there ii the more need that there be no fiilllnu o(l In the regular contributions. However wc must retrench, let us not begin and end?with the Lord's house and work. Suoh use of drouth will bring us what is worse than drouth. Even were our temporal Ills more serious than they are, they should not he suffered tu swallow up the peace ami Joy the Savior has left us. \\ hat If the crops are short and bu-iIneH short and bargains short! We have all the food and drink add other necessary things where with we ought to he content; and we have, ready to bo revealed, those heavenly, blessed portions that can never fall us. Surely we should strive lo say as | Habakkuk, under a darker dispensation and !a far darker providence: "Although the fig' tree shall hot blossom, neither *hail fruit be In I the vines; the labor of the olive shall fall, 'and the fields shall yield no meat; Iho flock ishall be ant off from the fold, and them shall be no h'/.rd In the stalls. Yet. I will rejoice In the Lord, I will Joy in the God of my salva^ Hon." Sarin? Seed Corn. Having made some simple yet very concln siveexperiments, at loa?-t to my own mind, In saving corn for "cod, and as this Is now Ihe Season for saving It, I give these expertments so that otlicrs may try the plan also. I would slntc that my usual way has noon In to cut ot! the corn from tlio cround and seed the land In wheal, and lo husk out the corn at our leisure during the fall, saving the bo.st filled and largest oars of corn whilst, husk In ,' for seed, and storing It In a cool, airy cornerlfi until tho proper time enme for planting It. Hut 1 noticed that oftentimes that corn planted the same day. In the same soil, and apparently from the same seed, came up very Irregj ularly : otic row, or maybe a do/.en rowR. mining up nicely, ami then one or two rows I or parts of rows would l>o missing. I could j not account for It at first; hut at last It dawti| ed upon my mind that the cars of corn taken 1 from the outside of the shock where the air ! and sun light had free play, ripened perfectly and produced germs of eorn that had all i their vitality to produce their exact species of of corn, whilst the earn of com lvldden away I in thewhoek, ke;*l from the air and the bright rays of the sun, although tholr grains seemed ! sound anfl perfect, yet tho term was weaken | ed. and although when planted when everything was favorable, snoli as soil and warmth, would oftentimes ccTnc up and crow nearly as well a? the first, yet If the least cold, wet weather, or If the ground should become too dry af'er planting, much of It would be missine, or If It did coine up It would be sickly and yellow and produce but a poor crop, the vitality being wanting. I d<r aot say that this is the case every year, f?r It is not, but It oftentimes Is, notably so last year and IKIe Last Fall to convince myself, I saved corn for seed In three distinct ways, viz: 1st. Com topped and the ears allowed to hang on the stalks until the ear was thoroughly dry, then pulled ahd hungup hy the husksln the corn crib where the a!r could pajs through. This corn wasshelledby hand the nlhs and butts rejected, anil planted five grains to the hill In a rich clay loam on May the 11th. It came up In a few days and at the second working It was thinned In two stalks to the hill, and Is at this date. September 24, ready to he topped, being quite dry. Of the 450 hills tested, 2') hills inlssed.5 hills being covored with sods and 3 with stones, so thatthis could not come through, so I may say that only 12 hills failed t*? germinate. Remember. May of last year was u very unfavorable month for germination of any seed, sumo farmers replanted their entire crop. 2d. Corn taken from outside ol the shock and the same cate taken of it, planted In the same soil. cot., ns the first. Of the 450 h'lls tested. .">8 hills missed, of which 16 hills missed through sods anil stones. So we have 12 hills failed to grow, the fame as the first lot. 3rd. Corn taken from the Inside of shock where neither the air or sun could get to It directly, and taken from the shook the same day a* no 1 and 2. Tills hail the same soli and treatment as No*. 1 and 2. Of the 450 hills tested, 123 hill* failed to come up; 19 hills failed owing to sods and stones; so we have I'H hills through defective germination which railo?t to grow. More care should have heen taken In these experiments so that the soil should have been free from all stones mid lumps, but I could not avoid It; but fur all practical purposes It will do. These rough experiments then show conclusive !y that corn for seed should be topped and allowed to dry thoroughly and kept free from all dampness, add very little replanting need heexpeclejl. F. fiA.NDEU.SON. Plains Farm. * Time to Sow Rye. Rye that I sowed in October last year, writes "Uncle Jesse," of Prince George, V?., to the Rural Mrwngcr at Petersburg, I have reaped on Hie ninth day of May following. It was then Just beginning to heat'. I got then but a small quantity oil'an acre of land. It then put up about two stalks where there was one before. I had the same land cut. over ?l.~ .I...- Toon 'I'l.lu ll.iK. I got throe Mines tin; weight of what I got the first time, unit I think it was worth more oli' the same quuiillty of IiiihI tluin if it had not tieen <>111 before. Tile weight ofT a given ()ii:inlity of land wan al>out tlic same as tiiat which was not rut at all till fully ripe, but the rye stalk* stood much thicker and were much smaller, and consequently I think better for feeding purposes, or for other Uses we make of the straw. The rye tlial I sowed on the Ilrst of March, was cut on the last day of June and had very little grain, and altogether, grain and straw, weighed tilii>ut one-tlfili as much oil'a given quantify of land as that, which was sown In October previous. 1 intended to sow In February. hut tln> ground kept so wet that we could not. plow the land to sow in Ki-bruaiy. If sown In the spring at all. I think it ought, to be sown in the lirst part of February. Hut to make the most of the grain and straw my preffrence is to sow it in September; but It will do quite well sown In October. For feeding purpose* I consider clover far better than rye. lint out land is so exceedingly sandy ail through tills section of the country that It Is not often that we can succeed in raising clover. ?
