There are signs of it on every hand. Some of these signs are: 1, The nomination of Col. Thompson for Governor ; 2, The reopening of the S. C. University ; 3, The re opening of the Citadel Academy; 4, The Normal Institute. Are the practical resalts commensurate with all these outward signs of interest? Is not the free school .system in this State theoretical, rather than practical? We believe it is. We believe, farther, that the children of the State do not derive one fourth the benefit from the free schools that officers and teachers do. Look at the results, and see if we are not correct. The school fund may be roughly summarized as follows: Constitutional Tax.......$300,000 Poll Tax................ 175,000 S. C. University......... 12,500 Citadel Academy......... 15,000 With this large fund of over half a million, has there been that general diffusion of learning and that ad vancement among the children that would rightly be expected?i Where are the fruits of thisgrand system? It is a grand system-in theory ; but in practice it has been, and still is, deficient. The people should not be satisfied with glittering gen eralities about free education. Fine speeches,- high-sounding eulogies count for naught. There is no doubt that a thorough reform is needed ; and the watchword of that reform should be, the greatest pos sible good to the children. The school system is managed honestly; but in too much of a slip-shod style. We need fewer and better schools, as a rule. We need only so many schools as will give all the children chance to'attend. We -need the w out of all teachers who are Snot fit morally. intellectually and by training to teach zaccessfully the free school system shotzld not be made an infirmary, nor an asylum for men and women out of a job we need competent teachers. We need a Superintendent of Education that will overlook the whole field; will post himself as to every portion of it, and will know It as thoroughly as a railroad Superintendent knows every mile, every trestle and every cut and every employee on his road. and who wlll see that every teacher is competent and that he does his duty, and that there are no more of them than necessary. There is no sense in paying ten men to do work that five men can do. We need, as a general thing, a better class of School Commissioners throughout the Counties ; especially do we need School Commissioners who will see to it that there are not too many schools and that no unfit teachers are employed. We need, as a rule, a better class of Trustees ; men * who know what constitutes a good teacher, and will see that there are schools enough, but not one more than is needed. We need that free S schools should be made in fact as in name free. We ne%d that the free schools should be run on strict principles of business economy. A man who would run his farm in the loose, slip-shod style upon which the free schools are conducted might be able to make very pretty speeches at grange meetings and agricultural fairs and write nice articles on farming for the papers ; but he would soon find himsel.f without a farm. _ _ The Greenbackers are uite nu merous in some parts of Oconee County. ______ The Stat'e Normal Institate in Coluwhia will close Frirlay. Give Us the Camphor. Quick! Editorial endorsements construct ed somewhat after the following style are frequently met with now adays in our State exchanges: "Mr. (or Col. or Gen.) - , the talented editor of the - -- is a candidate for the Legislature in - County. We have known Mr. (or Col. or Gen.) - a long time, and know him to be a man of the highest or der of ability and integrity. If the people of - County do their duty they will send him to the next Legislature." As the people of Mr. (or Col. or Gen.) --'s County do not know anything about him, such endorse ments (when copied into his paper) must be very gratifying to the vo ters. At a meeting of the School Com missioners in Columbia last week tha following resolution was unani mously adopted : "That the Legis lature be petitioned to appropriate annually $300 from the poll tax in each County for the maintenance of County Normal Institutes." The Legislature should do no thing of the kind. The Legislature already appropriates-or has done so for the past two or three years $1,500 out of the school fund for a State Normal Institute ; and to take still further $10,200 for County Institutes would be running the Institute business too far entirely. With all the school fund used for running the schools we have not been able to get free schools yet. If County Normal Institutes are worth $300 a year to the Counties, which we very much doubt, let the appropriation come from some other source than the school fund. Mr. Geo. W. Dargan, Solicitor of the Fourth Circuit, has been nomi nated for Congress in the Sixth District. The nominations so far are: 1st District, Sam'l Dibble, of Orangeburg-lawyer ; 4th, Jno. H. Evins, of Spartanburg-lawyer ; 5th, Jno. J. Hemphill, of Chescer lawyer; 6th, Geo. W. Dargan, of Darlington-lawyer. Geo. D. Till man, of Edgefield, will be nomi nated for the 2nd, and D. Wyatt Aiken, of Cokesbury, Abbeville County, for the 3d-they are both farmers. There will be no Demo cratic nomination in the 7th-in order to give the negroes a chance. The following resolution was unanimonsly adopted at th~e meet ing of the State Grange and State Agricultural Society last week in Anderson: "Reeolved, That it is to the in terest of all classes of citizens of South Carolina that thi, Statute known as the Lien Law be repeal ed." Last year we opposed the repeal of the law because we thought it would be unwise then in view of the short crops ; if the crops turn out~ anything like they promise now we shall advocate the repeal by the next Legislature. The Barnwell People says : "At a midnight convocation of the faithful last week a leading brother explained the Republican plan as follows: 'We will li.e low an keep our powder dry. The Democrats will divide and put two tickets in the field. When they get good mad and it is too late for them to kiss and make up vwe will spring our ticket and put the bottora rail on top again.' "Thiis is no doubt their plan in other Counties besides Barnwell. Hence the necessity for a urnited front. The State Grange Meein~g in Anders6n last week was well at tended, and was an occasion of much pleasure and instruction to those present. Several able and practical essays were read. Newberry County ought to give the State candidates a rousing re ception at the grand mass meeting the 7th of September. Mr. Jacob Miller, of Abbeville, a candidate for County Commissioner, died suddenly the 16th instant, of heart disease. The Columbia boys' school, (yclept the South Carolina Univer sity) is still without a President. A cotton factory wili he built i; Newberry after this year-probably a very long time after. Gen. J. M.

In this first article I wish simp to speak of what I have lately ase P tained in regard to the increase of fis Sin my ponds. - - In January , hI received fro Col. A. P. Butler twenty young Gel man Carp., which I suppose woul, have neasured at that tine thre rines in length. I have managed u a to this date, but not without trouble to save eight of this number from b< ing killed and eaten up by their ete ones. Last summer these fish did no spawn, as they were the but one ye t old. I have recently drawn the wat< - fro-n the small pond in which the - narp were placed and I was delighte e when I found some three or four but dred little fellows from two to two an a half iches in length in a health i and growing condition. This numbe e may seem to be quite small to some o e your readers, but to one who has bee ftyn oriefs o i reg t years ars not succeeded very wel tand especially to one who has had fear and hopes as to the successful natc s ing and raising of ecarp in our cou s try, the number, though small, i nevertheless gratifying. The eigt old ones are perfect beauties, meas e uring in length some fifteen or eigh teen inches.

Cotton is as promising as we could wish. A sufflcient amount ot this crop has, doubtless, been, planted , to defray all expenses, if it coutin:e as it now proniises. We cannot say r as iauch in favor of cotton as eorn, for when we raise "the statf of life" at r h,:me we are not so dependent on the f "Great West" and other places. The s smaller crops, such as potatoes, peas, &e.. are very fine. Watermelons have t been abuudant. Frnit has been ex n cellent. The largest peach we have 11 seen this season was taken from Mr. y Thos. Crosson's o:chard. But we I must not forget the crop of paramount y importance to us all-the grain crop. >, The yield of this crop was as good as ever known, even by old farmers. It g could never have come at a more suit. able time. Messrs. Singley & Schum i- pert have threshed this season 12,960 L bushels of grain. f Three of our enterprising farmers d are oy making preparation fur the I erection of new dwellings. s We have a very fine school at this d Academy, consisting of fifty-eight bright-eyed boys and girls. These childreu are never better pleased than when they hear the sound of the bell, calling tbern from play to engage in r the more weighty duties of the day. Who, after becoming acquainted with little ones, can say that it is not a ' delight to labor with and for obedient b and dilligent children ? We are al ways highly pleased to see a scholar poring over yet unknown lessons, while others spend their recess on the play dground whether lessons are prepared or not. Now we do not object to play, but rather encourage it at the proper p time, but we love to see the old max im, "duty before pleasure," carried out. These children have before them a certain point for which they are r aiming, and a particular day which they they eagerly await-especially e the larger ones. This day when fully decided on shall be known to the Ed tors of HERALD, and if they will be pleased to favor us with their presence, both or either of them, they shall have ra warm reception. Now to sum up. We have been wonderfully blessed this yeaa in every respect. Therefore, what manner of persons ought we to be ? Should we not attribute all the praise and honor to Him who has preserved us from evil, while others have suffered many calamities elsewhere ? Whether we t have a day of thanksgiving appointed or not, is it not our duty to send up an offering of thanks to the Giver of all gifts from the altars of our own r hearts for blessings received ? N.

SENECA CIT, August 17.-I had aan interview with Mrs.W. W. Russell this evening about the condition of the Greenback party and its plans. rHe sai; "In Oconee County we have nine clubs, organ iZedor abot to a be organised, of which one is a colored sclub. This club was organized with e twenty members, but I learn that its e membership has been increased. We ,expect to pall from one-half to two thirds of the white vote of Oconee County-this much has been conceded by some of the Democrats. We have not yet undertaken to organize these people, but have so far only orgized the disafiected throughout the State in order to hold them in hand until after the State nominations are made, when we propose to put a full State rticket la the field and make a canvass of the State from the mountains to the jseaboard. In our State nowinations we will make our seleetoin from the Demoerapie State ticket and that se lection will be Cal. J. N. Lipscowb. -The rest of the Greenback ticket will be selected from the best material we can get in the State, men, if possible, who have not been connected with politics in tihe State, and young men if we can tget them. Circumstances tvill have to direct us in our choice of a nominee for Governor. - Unless we can nomi nate a man who will promote the best. and truest interest of the people, so far as I am concerned the position of Governor on our ticket may be left blank. I think very well of Mr. Campbell's nomination, but do not know any thing abog it. The basis of representation in our State Convention will be one delegate fr,m each club. No estimate of the strength of the clubs can be given, but we have organizations in every county in the State, with the exeep tions of A bbeville, Newberry, Laurens, Union and York. e vwill nomnnte a candidate for Congress in each of'the Congressional Districts. Mr. Baskins will probably get the nomination in the Black Dis trict, Col. Cash in the Fifth, Mr. J Hlendrix McLane in the Fourth, Cal. D. Wyatt Aiken in the third. I hiave not Shougt of who tha'caiiiatei way be in the other districts. I asked Mr. Russell if there was any truth iv the story that he had re ceived $30,000 with which to make the Greenback canvass in South Car olitir. He said : "No, there is not one syllable of truth in suiob;a epor.t. 4t is altogtheffalse. If youi Want to know who is furnishing the money to conduct our 0ght I can tell you that it is thirteen Carolina farmers. Ask the National Bank at Anderson and they san tell you how much I am giv iug to the cause. I only wish some body would give us $2,000, for with this a'mount we could organize the We will make a vigrous, active, en ergetic campaign. The nominees on our State ticket will make a thorough canva-is-a regular 1876 an,p:tign. - We hope to have aid in speakers from outside the State. and will divide time with the Demucrats if they will allow it. My impression is that the Demo crats cannot affol to divide time be cause there is a bulldozing set in every county who can't tolerate opposition." Mr. Russell is in a very comfortable frame of mind, and seems to think he is in earnest. The Greenback clubs in this county are weak in numbers and re- ] source. and the Democratic leaders say that the new party will not be able to vote more than one hundred and fifty white men at the November elections.
