Charleston on Monday^ Chief Justice
Faller dismissed the bill and dissolved
the'injanction. The State,
therefore, has won the case and the

gives the Fort Hill property, amounting
to $80,000, to the State for the
establishment of the above college.
The executors of the Will cannot just
now oonvey the property to the State

Testimonial to a Pastor.
SAXDX Rux, Lexington CO., S C.
v May 19th, 1889.
At a congregational meeting held
to-day to consider the resignation of j
our pastor, who has been called to St. ;
Johns church, Wytheville, Ya., the fob j
lowing action was- taken :
Whereas, the Rev. S. S. Rahn has j
tendered his resignation as pastor of
this, the Sandy Run Evangelical Lutheran
Church, be it
Resolved 1, That this congregation,
although in compliance with the plainly
expressed wish of the pastor in charge, j
it reluctantly accepts his resignation,
exceedingly regets to sever relations !
which have been for several years both
pleasant and profitable.
Resolved 2, That we cheerfully bear
witness to the promptness and faithfulness
which he has exhibited in all his
pastoral relations with this congrega- j
tion, and we earnestly beseech for him
the Divine guidance and blessing in
whatever part of God's moral vineyard
he may select to labor.
Resolved 3. That we willingly accept
Brother P. H. E. Derrick as a supply
to fill out Rev. S. S. Ra'nn's time
until the end of the Synodical year.
Resolved 4, That the Secretary be
instructed to present the Rev. S. S. i
Rabn with a copy of these resolutions,
and to forward a copy to the editors of
the Lutheran Visitor ana the Lexington
Dispatch with a request to publish.
Resolved 5, That the above resolu- j
jions be psssed unanin.ouslv.

Washington, May 17, 1880.
Hon. Samuel J. Randall who has
been confined to his residence in this
city for several weeks past is now
much better, although not yet well
; enough to get out of doors. He con!
templates spending the summer at
j the seashore.
Solicitor General Jenks, of the

his resignation at the beginning, of
the present Administration, has been
notified of its acceptance by the

rresiaant. j>ir. denas win cuuuuue
ia the service of tbe Government .as
council in tbe telephone cases until
they are disposed of. This position
was tbe bone of contention which
brougbt%on tbe recent bitter wrangle
between Senators Sherman and Qaay.
It was privately promised to Sherman's
candidate Alphonzo Hart, of
Ohio, some weeks ago, but for some
unknown cause the appointment has
not yet been publicly announced.
Ex-Senator Riddleberger, would-be
Congressman Laughton and other
?.n.ti-Mahone Republicans come to
Washington and chin the President
ell ibey want to, but so far everything
given oat in Virginia has gone
to a Mahone man.
A big scramble is now taking
place daily at the^Government Printing
office, Palmer, the new Public
Printer having taken charge of the
office Monday, sicca which time he
has hardly been allowed an opportunity
to eat or sleep so great is the
rnsh. He has made bat few appointments
yet, bat one of those few-rChifcf
time keeper?was secured by
ex-Senator "Billy" Chandler, of New
Hampshire, who is one of Palmer's
bandsmen, for his private secretary.
"Billyhs" friends are also likely to be
heard from when the contracts for the
year's supplies for the office are made
next month.
Chief Justice Fuller has gone to
Norfolk, and from there he will proceed
to South Carolina on his district
tour. "?.*
ur
Harrison's first negro appointment
?Rev. James Townsend of Indiana,
to be Recorder of the General Land
Office?has created quite a commotion
in the Land office. In the division
in which Townsend is to be
Chief there are twenty-five white
lady clerks and every one of them
are trying to get transferred to some
other division in order to escape the
negro chief. As one of the ladies
pats it: "We naturally have to pay a
certain amount of court and deference
to our Chief, and it will be very
disagreeable for me to treat a negro
as my superior, I shall get into some
other division if I can; if not I supposel
shall have to stand it, as my
bread and butter depends on it."
Oklohoma does not propose geting
left in the great scramble for office.
Corporal Tanner has appointed
a Board of Pension Examiners for
Guthrie, and the Civil Service Commissioners
have received a letter asking
how soon examinations arevto be
held in Oklohoma. \

Foraker factions of Ohio Republicans
have got cp a compromise on the
Federal officers in Cincinnati, and
that ex-Mayor Amor Smith will be
surveyor and Col. D. W. McCInng
collector. The first is a Sherman
and the latter pins bis faith to Foraker.
One man has appeared here as a
candidate for office that every respectable
man in the country should
rejoice to see disappointed. I refer
to W. E. Haskell, editor of thq Minneapolis
Tribune, who wants to be
Mi^^ter to Denmark. Haskell is the
man who publicly insulted Mrs.
Cleveland by a scandlous editorial in
the columns of bis paper while she
and her husband were the goests of
his city. It is surprising that he
could get anybody to endorse his ap- *
plication.
The Court of Claims ha9 decided
that the celebrated Twiggs swords,
which have been iu the custody of the
Treasury Department ever since th$
war, should be turned over to Mr.
Myeris the executor of the General
Twigg's estate.
Ex-CcDgresemao Ochiltree, who
spends his time in New York, but; for
political purposes, claims a residence
in Texas, says that Harrison has
given him control of ail the Federal,
patronage of Texas. It may be jast
as Mr. Ochiltree says, but yon know
Mr. Ochiltree is the champion romancer
of the country.'
Ex-Public Printer Benedict and his
brother, ex-Chief Clerk of the Government

"What the* Teacher Has to Do.
The work of" the school room may
be considered as forming two importJ
ant departments of labor.
First, the teacher must teach; secondly,
he must exercise a controlling
j power over his pupils, without which
the most strenuous efforts to instruct
, must be ineffectual,
j To the successful teacher the first
J of these i& not irksome- If he is imbued
with a proper conception of his
! responsibility, and realizes that in the
: ofrnMnro ho ie holninrr fn r?nr tiro ho.
WV& VfWUA V WW iw U V * >. * W L. ?W * V??h (.?? V( w
I /" , .
ing shaped the lives and characters
i of his pupils; that under his care
! are. the young minds that are to
| wield an influence in a nation's hisi
tory, in the iinpartation of kuowl!
edge there must be pleasure inexI
pressible. Aiding in the moulding oi
| immature intellects, and the creating
in his. pupils that thirst for knowlj
edge which must lead to self exertion
| and enlightenment is the sublime
I work of the true teacher, and one
. that furnishes in itself his greatest
compensation.
But the ground must be prepared
before the seeds are sown, aDd discipline
must lay the foundation for
saccessfal teaching. Order mast be
the school room's first law; and the
t _ M
t man or woman wno ians in us mforcement
deserves not the name cf
teacheiy and should seek another
calling. Of all questions that teachers
are called upon to consider there
J are none more important than those
Relating to school management. This
is evinced by the fact that there are
j more failures resulting from an ina:
bility to, govern than from any other
! caufse. The number of years spent
| within classic walls and graduation
I from a normal institution form by no
means a sure criterion from which
; >
i one's abilities as a teacher can be
v.
| judged. They only serve to strengthen
I *'
the probability of success. It is his
powen^ to impart the knowledge
that has" become bis own, and to govern
well those who may become subject
to his care that should form the
crucial test. It is frequently the case
that persons make a failure of teaching
who are not only thorough scholars,
but possess the energy and perseverance
requisite for success. They
i lack something that is possess^ by
the successful teacher. This some|
thing,\ve believe, is largely a gift of
; nature; buts its susceptibility to de- i
velopment is frequently made mani- J
fest.' ^Kindness and firmness mnst j
, be characteristic of him who would
- -. . . I
fill most firirtP.ARpfnllv a i
I place. Papils shoald be able to look j
: npon their instructor as a kind and ;
I sympathizing friend. It is not alone j
['the SQbiects of text books thai ..hfl._ifl_.
' called npon to teach. We do not be- !
| lieve in religions instruction in school.
! The school and Sunday school shoald
; go band in hand, bat each has its
I mission to falfill. Bat to inculcate
i
by example and by precept whenever
possible, those lessons of honor,integ;
rity and morality that ninst form the j
! cornerstone of every successful life,!
we hold to be the doty of the true
j teacher. And the immoral man
! should have no more right to preside
! in the school room than be has to
! proolaim the word of God from a
| sacred pulpit.
It is by appealing to the belter naj
tare of pupils and ever keeping be|
fore their minds the moral responsi|
bility that is theirs that the best rei
salts in.Bchool discipline are secured.
; We do hot affirm that moral suasion j
is effectual in all instances. The I
I rule ie not without exceptions. There
are cases in which, on account of a
lack of parental care and home dis;
cipline, or the inflaence of evil a?so- j
! ciations. the moral nature of ?;he ;
I i
child ha9 become so distorted that ;
sterner meaos mast be resorted to for !
I its correction. We do not condemn j
| the rod as a relic of barbarism, but
: hold its judicious use to be neeesi
sary in exceptional cases when milder
j means have proven ineffectual. We
| do affirm it as oar belief, however,
, that corporal punishment at school is
! necessitated only by a failure in the
; discharge of duty on the part of
! those who are responsible for the
- home training of pupils,andthe lack
of that parental aid and co-operation
| that form the greatest drawback to
our educational advancement.
Upon the establishment of rules of
j.discipline the teacher should appeal
| to the jadgmenfc of his pupils. Thns
j lead them to know that snch regulaI
tions are for-the good of all con:
cerned, and obedience will generally
I follow. Bat laws, whenever estab1
liehed, must be enforced, and an in
9
| tentkmal violation should call forth
a clear demonstration that, "Under
his silken glove there rests the hand
.of steel." P. T. B.
