It would be un n duous task to undertake to follow tin: stum-i ing discourse, in n!l of its hearings and rel lions, ?w delineated by one of the membe of the Society. llis remarks were full i good sense, and marked with cousidernh ability. Mr. A. Andrew* is a deep tliuike und takes pleasure in giving informatio when in his power to do so. It was claimc that if the vast amount of matter paid out i t'iu College since its infancy, had been npplh to ti e establishing of good schools in tl Slate generally, that every District mig h Ve had flourishing, arid even high classic schools; and nt the same time, justice \i cqnittly would lode been established upon firmer basis. Hut a* it is, it is ?M\{y the w ei.|ll classes who cat) attend such extravagant I Mlituliuim, nii'l plafc* ?( K-i^niHg, ma the ('. Culh-g>-> ?"d the < ?) hi which it > loci oil,?.nd consequently they uro the only ?hn era el' llio Mule dimulut* la llut (College.it wo* contended that llio (naiituli"it hi {oat nyht of the oldevt it had, or ehould hiv in \iew, vlx: to tend id nested young int fur nod vrWc, otcr tl'e tState, to disscinina ! I ho seeds of I-item lure and knowledge, ai inatill the toutliful mind with their fruit and that this neglect wit founded upon ll univurxpl truth, that the young men grad ntiag there were wealthy, and would n undertake th<* performance of the srduoi dutieauf a teacher, unless necessitated ujh tho grounds of temporal elrciimstanrca.Again it was contended that those gradui ing at tho Kooth Carolina College, had ? rioua advantages over rthvr students, wh on account of the wrapt of moans, t'ere co fctriihcd tb stch n IcM ckpcftdve place of . learning, to ?omptUU? thvir education, and that the Stato ?n* always ready |o ronteV ho tiers ainl distinction those, while these ? wcro compelled to depend on their own ~ character and exclusive merits, to gain conquests pf fume, and renown in the State; f apd that the College sustained a high posi- ^ tion in, and was connected with the politics of its lending votaries, from the fact that a graduate in its walls had a decided advantage over nn opponent f ?r oflicc, who was not a y graduate ol the same Institution, and consed qucully tiie whole sway of the argument it against the "present system" seemed to thunit der against tlu- entire process of the official c piocecdings, exen from the election of ofli- T1 i: eors to their several ranks or stations; the i- manner in which it was done, the pjan of d receiving and paying out the appropriated le funds, 4tr. Anil again, it was claimed Mint a? the Faculty of no other College in the Uit- ^ d id States received as high salaries, and that d tho spirit of electioneering was diffused in (l) ic all the official proceedings, from year to year. a 0 The salaries, w hich I might state, stand thus, p I'rekiili'iit, (3^00, nnd ui'li of the I'rolcs- ,|, sors, ?g,6t)0, while snug sums were paid m 1 lower officers in rank. The impiiry was w ' frequently made, ' WJiy could not the South g j C/.rolina ('ulli ga sustain itself, as well as ' I j other prospering Colleges in tlio Statu! It lr I Was admitted that the Slate might have Lli been correct in aiding to defray expenses, ,r j until the College had acquired a name and character; and then it should have been made to live,and even prosper upon its own rp annual income, and consequently,it*Coiisliti | Union and Litis should have been made to il correspond, and then its liovcrmiH-iil being M based upon such republican principles, it ? wmild have. m> doiiot, ffo.uished as xxell, it ^ not better, than it lias xxilli the extensive (Utile aid il lias enjoyed. . w Next, in order, the justice, or injustice of ei t(ie several appropriations to advauee vilucu vi tion in the State, was considered. 'J he gieat 4 contrast in the sum supposed to he reecivd ed by cai.li poor scholar in iho State, and ''' is the enormous amount applied to the use ? f ' d a South Carolina College Slmleiit, ncvincd k | to Le deeply investigated ; this is the priiicL .? | pie involved, and i.ot so mm li the amount |v X itself; 'I'hat whereas, a College Student ci>' jnyci! the proceeds of about 5>147 aiiMially, to the poor and needy receive cueli, nearly U \ $1 V6. Mul tinrt it was claimed that the ? d ...ami.. ,.i 1- j ? - - mmuuiv vmwvi uvritt'H none, ami mill llicy j n wcic directly iui|M**cd oil.
