that tihe trial of Hiillery ardy and Lewis

anIld on Filday to the listonishienot and
idignlation of the whole omutunity, the

Jige Platt. An unheard of and most
itli4nitous proceeding, and one to which
the records of this State will not sh1ow a
parallel.

It always happens so.
. Every time a Hadical is asked to vote
for a negro he advises thu negro to wait
-not to pish is claims yet-that the

That is to say, the ladicals accord
more WAIT to the negro's demand for

a complimentary affitir, not intended to
confer actual benefits, and It is presump

Visit of.Jefforsou Davis to the Military Bohool
. .. , -of St. Oyr,- Paris. -
IU1sits. EDITOrs:--In making a brief
tratislation front a French paper in regard
to the viilt of :M' Davis to the School above
nimed, alloi mei'irst to say that sbo School
Of 13t. Cyr, as the Polytechnic. School, Is. un%
der the command of the Mittister of War.
The first MiUtr School - established' i
France, by Lewis"XV., in 1731. wa's located
in a spacious, Mon.umental Building, erected
at the extremity of the Champ do Mars. (1)
Abolished In 1703, the Mill:ary School was
soon succeeded by that of the "Sons of
March." encamped in the field of Stblons,
which, however, listed but a short time, Iu
1802, Napoleon' 'tie 1st, ro-established the
Military School; this ho established in the
-left wing of the White llorse Yaird, in the
Palace of Fontainebleau. In 1808, he re,
moved it to the old Royal Ilouse of St. Cyr,
erected by Lewis XIV, and It Is there that
the Military School stliids to-day.
Every Frenchman fi-oin 18 to 21 years of
age, who passes the examination held every
year by the Minister of War, is admitted to
the Sdhool. When admitted, lie contracts a
military engagement ofseven years. At the
end of three years, the scholars are brought
before a board of examiners, and if accepted
are sent to different regiments as second
Licuteninti, but if reject,.d, tire sent to other
aeginents as privates. (2)
It Is to this nirscry,thc glory and the hope
of Franco,tthat Jefferson Davis paid a vilIt
on the 20th of January last. lo wias escort
ed by two offleers or the old army of the
South, and by Mr. Slidell, who was the Io
presentative of the Conlederato States durs
Ing ihe War of Secession. The French Gen
eral De Goudrecourt, Director of the Milita
ry Gehool, received the dislinguished visItors
with the most mairked cour'esy, iadl the
reginient of school boys being at the time
under armis, one of their number was plnced
fi comntand, and the old Niinister of the
United States the old Director of West
Point, and the gentleman at last, who was
for more than four years tile souIl Of one of
the greatest struggles recorded in hiswory,'
exhibited an admiration which lie did not
tiy to conceal. while witnessing tie idmlr-,
bl)e drilling of these youths. who are the
personiflcation of the Militnry qualities of
all Frenchmen.
W oen at rest, Mr. Davis spoke English
with a number of tihe younge men. le then
visited the study rooms, the amphitheatres,
the collection rooms, and the harble tables
on which are engraved, in letters of gold.
the names of all the schinlars who have been
raised to the rank of generals. Thus ended
the visit of Mr. Davis, who left the School
Ierfectly sutisfled with ihe proficiency ex

of ti,e School boys of St. Cyr.

1I PuErARATIO.-A School History
of South Carolina, North Carolina and
Georgia, by Prof. J. W. Davidson, A. M.
This History which Is now in course of
prepaation, is told in a familiar style,
and will prove highly acceptable to
schools and remunerativo both to Its ac
complished author, and its energetic pub
lishers, Messrs. Duffle & Chapman. We
are anxious to see a copy.
GooD Nvusa.-The number of busi
nes4 places, large and suali, in the town
of Newberry, from a recent survey taken
Ly the local, is set down at eighty, this
includes all the various branches ; and
may be considered a favorable ind,x of
prosperity. From a birds-eye view,
each store or shop presents a map of
busy life, while content is marked upon
the face of tie professioial mnan,murchant
and irtizan alike. So mote it be. -
ONE OF T11. iiE-ST.-suhlibie and prae
tically ridiculous, and good for a local, is
this appeal of the veteran at t.e foot of
the stairs
"My son, arise and see the newly-risen
uiinairy of day, and hear the' sweet
bird,; singing their matini song of pruise
to their great Creator , come while the
dew is on the grass and the tender lanblis
are bleating on the hill-side-come, I
say, utl' I'll be up there vt ith a rm itch
anl give yon the cussedest licking that
you ever had I"
Moa E&IIAN-rS.-Since our h4st Issue
some twenty or more emigrants a.rrived
here, the most or them being engaged on
farms near town, while others are on the
way and will be here during the course
of the week. We are pleased to see thi,
evidence of progress on the part of the
farmers, ana(d look forward to the day,
which we fIrml0y bke!ieve is not rar distant,
when these industrious people will be
scattered broadest over the whole dis
to iet and St!Att.. 'Thw ery aell ve agent
of the Newberry 8ocitty is entitled to
all praise.

StEEr' No MOIE.-Anitjeipauting the ap
p)rach or spring,wam weather, anid the
disposition to sleep which faills upon
some folks while in church, we publish
tl e follo w ing royal decree which appeared
in a Danaish joiurwi!, issued in 1810:
"Ibiving learned that the number
who sleep in church during aservice i..
very ceniside-rahile, we huave dlecreed that
every pairish of the diocese shall ap
pos cermta personis to look after such
oihfenders. Fur this piurpoise, they shall
be provided with a long rod, baving a
lenter thonag atta.ched to it, w..ith wh.'ich
they nre to luash on the head all those
who aire founud sleeping."
And a good ideca too, is it, and worthy
of adoption. Cantnot some of our good
brothers in the church take up this
agreeable occupation, and stir up the
skeepers. Trhe time is approaching when
something of this kinud would be of ad
vanltage.
PEmuSoNA ,.-Gen. D. ii. IHill, the editor
rof the,"'Lanmd we Love," and which Mng

the New Eelectic of Baltimore, arrivedl

'The Land we Love, as al-so the New

high position among literary publica

before. T1heo paper will be published at
