W ? invit?? Httelltion to the sharp article
i>f our intelligent correspondent 41 South
Carolina," relative to Dr. l,i?-l?er and our
Stuj^tJJoll"oc. Our correspondent is rather
severe on the Trusici-s tor having
eleetod I'fQjcssor \fc(J*y, over i>r. Lie tor
ns i'rosident of the Institution, hut Mill tv-'
cnour with his liigh estimate of Dr. Lich?*r
as a scholar and disuiplinarian. Dr.
l.ieberV absence from the College will in
deed deprive it of one ?f its strongcM pillars,
ami wo uracil tour that lite harsh
mini nor in which ho has recently boon
treated, will excite the indignation of hi?
numerous friends and admirers in the
State, and thereby swell the growing list
of opponents to the College.
The State Military Academy is fast becoming
a formidable rival of the College
in the alVoetioiis both of the Legislature
and of the people. Doth Institutions
now receive about an canal amount of
State aid for their annual support. The
discipline nud euriculuiii of st udies are likewise
nearly the same in both, ami among
competent judges, the general opinion
prevails that the literary course in the
Academy is aliipjst as goo.I as that in tinCollege,
while jt is universally euhveded,
that the scivaililic and practical training
of the furini.r is far superior to that of the
latter. As an evidence of the rising popularity
of the Acauciny with the peoph ,
although that Institution is only in its infancy,
yet nearly, if not rpiitc as manv
Carolina Students attend tln-ro as go to
the College. M< n of wealth, and position
.anxious to give their sons, the best possi
bio education are teitronizinr the A.vi.l..
my in preference ti the College. Again
ill-; Academy is all the while educating
without charge for Hoard, Clothing, ??r
Tuition a largo number of /*?nr young
men, sav from fifty to sovonty-live, while
the Collego \> itli an r.iiial amount of
State aid, does nothing of iho soit. This
fact of itself, makes thousands of poor men
regard thu Aeadomv with peculiar favor,
and the Tax payers are also mindful of it.
Such being the case, and n< tin* pom,!,,
will hardly submit inueh longer, to he
taxed so heavily for the support of both
institutions, it would not surprise us if the
Academy should soon r reive a monopoly
of the Stale's bounty.
llesides the many private sectarian f'"!legos,
which are springing up in all parti
of '.lie. State, will soon he able to combine
a powerful influence in utvnr of stopping
State aid to the Oollcgc at Columbia, and
giving it to tlio private Colleges. Those
private institutions are also supporting
themselves, either by no-re voluntary contributions,
or by the large amount of patronage
which they receive for the ellicient
education they give in return. The question
is constantly being asked, even now,
if those private Colleges are self sustain

State, \\til graduate at least live times as
many students, as the t'olloge at Col mil
liia, <ati<l all these al.iumi will naturally
sympathize with their respective Alum
Aft trot against the pampered institution
at Columbia. The tnrc*sll>/ for Slate ni<]
t?? the Columbia College is thoroforo diminishing
every year. Tito College is at
this time, dependant on students I'roiu a
distance tor being alile to issue a respectable
catalogue- of names. Hence the
people are beginning to complain at having
to be taxed $.'lj,OOU or $lU,0O(j a
year, mostly to educate young men front
other State
And still ttihvf c^iy*o>? rabidly un
d<-riiiining iho College in the estimation
of the people. Tim belie! is daily gaining
ground that it is rather a jxtlitioil machine
than a Literary, orseiontilie Institution.?
The Trustees ai. all elected by tin- Legis
tore for their political availability, and
thou the faculty are all likewise vl.os^n l>\

l'rosidont of the Vol lego has a salary of

got? a salary of |2,u'J0. I he Librarian,
Secretary, Hursar, <V<\, are likewise paid
snug salaries all of * hich conn s out of tin
State Trea-urv. There in l??s an aniiual
appropriation by tin) legislature of
$2,000 for tlto. purchase of books fur the
Library. There is also an average annual
appropriation l?y the State of perhaps *!<>,4u>0
more for ^meting ,4/nv College J^uildings,
or repairing the ohi. In addition
to litis, tLc whole fund, ranging
front |t 10,000, to *12,000 per ywir is
spent f,.r th? c^vJusive benefit of the Collego
making H,b&i, tfc-^oou, which are animal
ly disbursed under the sole and almost
irresponsible direction of the Trustee*.
The Trustees ate therefore an important
set i?f oflieers, ? ho control eight of
dm most lucrative and honorable incumbencies
in the State ami perform other
functions that give the!:; vast power. Vet
these Trustees are elected by h'ti/of, and

Many even, who are warm friend* of w

I The tuition tend is disbursed at the su- b

Hither the tuition futiJ ought to be paid j

Ue. ayse as the Military Academy, 11

J. Uecause as Dr.I.ieher is probably the e
only ollieer o| the t'ol'ege who is known a
to he in favor of giving the election ot "

The debate 011 Kansas a {lairs was conuuod
in tlio Senate on Thursday l>y :
ess s. Hale and Toombs. It was gon<>.
illy expected that Mr. Hale wouiJ uiake
1 eil'nrt to regain the ground lost by hitn
the short personal rencounter whieh 00irred
a few days since between him and
juator do 1 ks, of Tennessee. Mr. II.do
included, however, that "discretion was

itngoni t, and thereby disappointed a

r. Hale preferred to take tip a challenge

Mit had discharged his wlioiedaiv in re
