The Charleston Judgeship. The Republican membersof the Leg islature commit- a fatal error, if they suppiefit only persons of wealth and influence are deeply interested in the charaifer of the persons who may be elevated to the Bench in.this State. It is true that particular citizens of high !tion, who have made them selves eonspicuous by the persistency of their ppositionto corrupt practices, may beig1ed.out as shining marks by aay Judge who is so weak or so willing that the cliques who elect him can do with him as they will. And -wh a judge, may, at critical moments, exert 'his official power in behalf of some man or some set of men whose crimes arm known, and who have no hope of escaping punishment except by stavibg off investigation and trial. Beyou& this-the persecution of par ticular inembers of the Opposition and the, protection of conspicuous thieves in the ruling party-there is nothing for any honest citizen to gain, while there is everything to lose, by the election of any as Judge who is eithef ignorant or corrupt, the slave of passion. or the servant of party. A Judge who can be used to-day for what seems, in a party sense, a good purpose, can be used to-morrow for a bad purpose. What Republican who opposes the Charleston Ring can have a fail trial, if he be indicted by a Ring Solicitor, tried by a Ring Jury, and sentenced by a Ring Judge? This danger is one which confronts every citizen. Unless the Judge be up right and learned, no man is safe. The peril to the humbler citizen is more imminent than to the man of wealth. The poor man cannot employ counsel to expose the machinations of his ene mies; nor can he exert a back stairs influence which, in these latter days, is potent with the aspiring Judge. The rich man has, at his command, the learning and forensic ability which only money can buy, besides the indi rect bribery of social influence and so cial recognition. All the way through, the rich, where courts are venal or vin dictive, have advantages which the poor, because they are poor, cannot possess. The rich may escape, but the poor cannot. For the poor, and the majority of Republicans are poor, it is of the first consequence that a Judge be high-minded and capable; especially in Charleston County where party spirit has run high, and the Radicals, who constitute the Ring, have been defeated, at the polls, by the Republicans who desire Honesty and Reform. We have no particular candidate to urge upon the attention of the Gener al Assembly. We know that there is little hope of the election of such a man as him who, with ermine all un stained, was on Saturday gathered to his fathers. But we have the right to ask, in the name of the influential and rich,that theJudge tobe chosen on Friday be a man of good standing, of irreproachable antecedents, and of re spectable ability.-News & Courier. How Much Was He Worth? The following which we take from "Good Words," is well worth atten tive perusal and earnest thongt. "How much was he worth ?" is a ques tion which will come home to many hieapers up of gold. Ponder it well, reader: There is a terrible significance in the question we sometimes ask, upon the death of a wealthy man, if we only understood the real significance of the question. "How much was he worth?" we ask. And the angels might reply : "Worth ? He wasn't worth anything. His money was worth something, his body is worth something as a source of fertility to the soil; but he wasn't worth anything." So we vary the question : '-Yes, but how much did he leave ?" it might be answered. "Yes, I will tell you. He had houses, lots, bonds, stocks, gold, notes, mer chandise, farms; and he left them all-he carried nothing with him. Naked and destitute came he into the world, and as naked and destitute did lie go the way whence he came. He carried uothing-neither land or mon ey; nor yet did he carry with him the blessings of the poor. He left all; he carried nothing away with him." But his neighbor has died-a man who was not knmown on 'Change, nor in the tax list. 'And what has he left?" we may say, or, perhaps, curiously ask. "Left? He has left nothing; but he has taken much with him. He has gone to Heaven laden with the bless ings and gratitude of the poor, of the helpless, of the young, of the ted, of the widow, of the friendless ; of those whom he, by his counsels, and his acts, and his prayers, had blessed, of those whose poverty he had enlighten ed, whose darkness he had dispelled, whose bodies and souls he had fed." When Wilberforce d i e d. Daniel O'Connell said, "He has gone up to heaven bears g a million broken fet ters in his hand." Happy he, what. ever he may leave, or may not leave on earth, who goes thus freighted intc the other world. PROPOSED CIVL RIGHTs CoMrRO. NIsE.-A Washington letter says: "The advocates of the civil rights bill finding themselves confronted by the Executive veto should they persist in carrying that odious measure through Congress, are now talking of a com promise of some of the more radical features proposed in the original bill in hopes of forcing some action befor the expiration of the present Congress As an offset to the mixed-school ques. tion they propose to set apart the pro. eeeds of the sales of the public lands, which shall constitute an educational fund. The amount thus accumulated they propose shall be distributed among the States on the basis of illite racy. Under this arrangement the States of the South would receive the largest share, and provisions would be incorporated so as to enforce in an in, direct manner, at the cost of the government, what they have beer frustrated in carrying through to the sure destruction of the public school system of the United States. The op. ponents of any Congressional interfer ence in the matter of schools, with the aid of the Democratic vote, will doubt. Sk as be abl.e to defeat any such appli cation of the public money. It is > wisely feared that the application of the moneys as stated would establish a system as extravagant and glaring in corruption as the defunct Freed man's Bureau." The Herald. THGS. F. GRENEKER, EDITOR. fir Cc - to NEWBERRY, S. C. WEDNESDAY, DEC. 16, 1874. A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE. an The Herald is in the highest respect aFam- sb ily Newspaper, devoted to the material in terests o! e people of this County and the co State. It circulates extensively, and as an Advertising medium offers unrivalled ad- to vantages. For Terms, see first page. bu The Baptist Convention. In a notice which appeared in the last issue of this paper, relating to the recent Baptist Convention, which con- ar vened in Chester, there were some iu accuracies, for the setting right of is which we are indebtad to a reader of h the HERALD. -,9 follows: The recent Convention of Baptists do at Chester was not the Southern Bap- de tist Convention, which embraces all the tai Southern States, but the Baptist Con- YO de vention of South Carolina. de The endowment proposed to be no raised for Furman University, at Green- an ville, S. C., by the Convention, is two mi hundred thousand dollars, of which h sum one hundred and eighty-five thousand has already been given in bonds, but as due allowance should be made in so large a sum for doubtful t bonds, it is proposed to secure fifty th thousand dollars in addition to what has already been given, by the Ist of January, 1876, so that the University may have a bona fide endowment of th at least two hundred thousand dollars. b The commodious buildings (erected before the war) and the real estate of as the University are considered well A worth fifty thousand dollars. ed In addition to the above we have he been informed that it is proposed, if R the endowment fund can be raised, to throw the University open free to sku- fo dents for a period of ten years 1 U[ The Promised Reform. qu The fair promises of reform made st before th. election, and the subsequent 4. promises of Mr. Chamberlain in his hi inaugural have been gladly received. w, Hope has sprung up in every heart, h and there is a disposition to extend H to him that sympathy and kindness of h feeling which was not accorded to his A prede,cessors, and the withholding of pe which was constantly made a subject ti< of complaint by Ex-Gov. Scott. His D eminent abilities are conceded by all, di it is thought that he not only seesel where the reform should commence, cc but has the disposition to commence t and carry it out. This is what the at people stood ready to believe after o reading his admirable inaugural ,and a still hope to realize. The question now is, will all these fair promises be carried out, or was his first speech a mere show of words only intended to make an impression for a brief time. We trust the latter may not be experienced. It is said H by some that he cannot go back on the party which elected him, and that those men who worked the hardest to o put him in office are those who will be appointed to positions of trust and profit. This is a dangerous principle, and one which cannot be executed honestly and with justice to the peo- t ple whose interests are at stake, and to who to some extent at least should be t considered. We trust this is not the e principle which will govern Mr. Chain V berlaiu, but that he will endeavor to e do that which will subserve to the h greatest good; a course which will gain him the respect and good will of cB the State and the gratitude of her c cemzens.

The di ews says : of The sad event was not unexpected, L( he had long been in feeble health. a native of Massachusetts, he was Pc ucated at Harvard College, where an graduated in the class with John itledge, Edward Everett, Alfred uger and Dr. Samuel Gilman. In 11 he removed to this State, where, th e a brief period, he taught school. fo the war of 1812 he served as aid an on the staff of Gen. Alston.
