?E"' NEGRO EDUCATION. ? d The Advantage* Which llie White ! tl People Have Received lor llieir[a Large Expenditure in X('j{ro!ti SchooN. 11] Corespoudeuce C'brlstlau liulver. ! 1< I saw by the News and Courier of!11 the 11th that the commissioners of w election of Kichlaud county had ap- P oointed one Republican on each board ^ of managers of election for that couu- c ty. This seemed to scatter confusion f worse confounded into the ranks of ^ the dominant party, and caused a hasty gathering in Columbia; with the prevailing inquiry on every lip; ? 'What! do you mean to tote fair 11 with the niggers after nil ? "We mean that you should promise us every immunity, but reserve to ourselves the right to repudiate that promise as its IP suits our convenience." I)o you not 1 know the negroes are awakened to their 11 interests, and to give them representa- j1. ^ion on the board of managers could not crush them out, or they will herald the fact to the world? We must sj keep up a semblance of fairness until sl after this Convention shall have been 11 held, and then, they will have no e show, they have none now before the J' Courts, but then they will have none " before the people of the country who c are now watching us and criticizing c; ojir actions. Therefore the action of " the commissioners was instantly set aside and the appointees removed, y This is a further evidence that fraud was intended; should it become neces- ?' sary, the counting out process can he 15 done with impunity. *1 also see by P by the Press and liannei an editorial squib, "One thing the State Convention or th Legislature ought to do is to forever prevent any minister of the T gospeljfroin holding office or dabbling in politics. Preachers have no business going into politics, and they should never be allowed to hold olliee. The Colored Ministerial lTnion in Columbia is largely responsible for the ^ unrest among the Negroes. The poor Negroes were duped out of their , dimes, while the lawyers made big ' money." I would like first to ask are . not preachers men ? Endowed with the same aspirations as other men? j Are they not the natural leaders of the t people and should they not be fully eonversnnt with the current affairs of N their State so as to enlighten the masses? Where is the consistency of allow- ,! ing white preachers to actively engage in politics and try to debar the Negro? One of the leaders of the Reform par- . ty, Rev. Mr. Sligh for instance, or does the editor include him too ? The Ministerial Union that met in Columbia was composed of ministers from all parts of the State congregated there with, aud by consent of their respec- d tive fiocks, to counsel together and a therefore is not responsible for the un- b * I-Vt*#- iKftf /l!e/.niaf YTTrt o r?>Clllf f) icat; uut mat uioijuiui noo mv x?.oi4*v v> of trying to place on the last feather :t that was destined to break the camel's r< back. Place the blame where it right- tf fully belongs on the counting in of as d dastardly a fraud aud political juggel- si ry as was ever perpetrated upon any 01 people in the history of this State, ei The tissue ballots of'70 dwindled into \ insignificance compared with it. The Negroes were not duped; they gave out of their penury and want freely, and will give again when occasion requires, or necessity demands. By ^ v what hocus pocus can a Convention, or even the Legislature, prevent acer- 1 tain class of it^ citizens Irom participating in the allairs of his State, or expressing their views iu regard to certain rights pertaining to their people'.' ti Or does it mean that only Negro preachers should be debarred? Is tfl this another suggestion to the Convention that it is not enough to crush his i f inu I nanirntinn t Villa fPliallimr nilf ! J/Wi.WiVV*. j all the semblance of manhood he may m have left. "There is a power that ri shapes the destinies of nations, rough hew it how we may." The Negro is an element not easily got rid of; a ubiquitous being, that thrives under s'a*- any circumstances, an indigeneous plant that, germs in auy soil. Subject him to the hardships of life and he springs up as lively as June grass, and they look to their preachers to apprise i them of current events. You cannot eliminate him from politics unless you disfranchise the whole race. Stop him from reading the newspapers. In fact just say by Constitutional or Legislative enactment that the preacher shall not read anything but his Bible and Commentaries. "Consistency thou art a jewel." What is good for the white preacher is good for the Negro. If the dominant elemeut will only deal fair with us and give us such representation as our intelligence and wealth ? wuirttins, lueu iuis uuresi \vm ceuse, but we mean to continue to demand our rights as men until you accede to them, be we preachers or plodders. ? Our case is before the Supreme Court of this country and there we rest our hopes. Shatter this and there will be ? such an emigration from this State, that now blooming fields in five years will be barren wastes. More anon. Fidicius. w MiiCiioliii l>ol?. H lit Cor.

Some few had new Registration tickets and were allowed to vote. <iu M. M. McBride, the precinct chairman, who always is on time, had his men well arranged and well discip- ?. lined. John I,. Adams and A. H. Nash, noble negro boys, were at their places with ink and pen, and recorded the voters and the non-voters. 1 Magnolia stood on Republicanism as, she did in 1875. Although a good many could not vote, they showed themselves men by comiug to the box. Everything was quiet, but the negros i came to vote and went to vote, but the J Kegistration Jaws prevented uiem. But some did vote. The managers did not prohibit any that had Registration tickets from voting. A little mistake was made at first as | to the place where the voting was to be. it was given out to be at the Has-! kell place, which was a mistake ; so a| large crowd met there. But P.

I seud you u receipt for saving beef tiring the summer .seasons, which I liink is of vast importance to the South s we can raise cattle with but little rouble, and by this process can save lie largest ox in midsummer for any ;ngth of time. I put up for my own imily oue-uuarier to one-ball* a bee! ,-eekly, and have uot lost any in the ast three months. I do not claim nything for myself except the appliation, and my object is to give my ex* erience toothers that they may he enetited. Itecip.?For 100 pounds of beef, tke five pounds of tine salt, two ounces f saltpetre, and two ounces of good lolasses. Directions.?Cut your beef in conenitnt pieces, taking out the marrow ones. Incorporate the salt and saltetre together on a board or table, 'ake the beef, piece by piece, and rub :ie salt well ir.to the llesh. Then have casl; or convenient size, prepare in tie following manner: Wash it well in the inside, then moke it for lOor 1"> minutes with corn hucks or cobs, or anything that will lake a dense smoke, (do not burn the ask, ) let it cool for a few minutes, them ut the beef in layers as close as possile, pouring the inolases over each layr. When all is thus placed in the ask, put a cover on top with sufficient eight to keep the meat down, and in iie course of 6 or 10 hours the meat will e covered with brine, l.'se 110 water. Vhen thus prepared, you can use it as :eaks or roasts as you desire, as there > no more salt in it than will make it alatable. The First Snw. ' Whata funny thing!" said little oni, taking up brother John's saw. "It'sonly a saw, silly," said John. "But who made it? who found out iie funny thing?,' persisted Tom, as tie saw worked backward and forward, jparatiug the hard wood which 110 nife could cut. "Ob, all carpenters have it," said ohn, disdainfully. Still little Tom watched and wonered. Then the big brother spoke. "I know, little lad. I'll tell you. iong, long ago a greek sculptor, called >**:dalus, divided a piece of wood rilh the toothed bone of a serpent; nd it answered ho well;tbat he imltatthe teeth in iron. This was the way tie first saw was made." "Is that true ?" asked Tom. "Quite true, I believe," said the big rother, in answer. "Very funny," said little Tom. To Cure Scar*.
