FREE EDUCATION.
The subject of free education, s
seems, at this particular time, to W
occupy and absorb to a considera
ble extent, public attention. W
This election year seems to call
forth, in an eminent degree, the A
philanthropy of all classes, more sa
especially that of politicians man- di
ifesting itself in the eager desire sI
of those persons to elevate their
fellow men of all classes, colors ti
and conditions, in the scale of in h<
telligence and consequent pros- ci
perity. in
There are some views of this free g<
education which appear enconrag- AN
ing and others which asaume a s
questionable character. All laws of
enacted are supposed, by the enac- p4
tors, to conduce to the public weal
Of the country for which they are ti:
made. At this point the question ac
presents itself, what is the good a
which is to he derived from free ed
ucation ? There would doubtless
be different answers to this ques
tion, from different individuals,
some sincere and others biased hw
circumstances. w
There are, in every well-governed
country, three great principal in
terests lying at the foundation of
its prosperity. viz: the commercial, at
political and agricultural. Any- at
thing done to advance these in bt
terests, will assurely advance the at
interests of the whole country, and
anything done to the detriment of or
these interests will assurely result in
in injury to the whole country. To lii
look at this question intelligently, (
it is necessary to take into conside- p
ration, the peculiar condition of the in
country which it is intended to ben- g(
efit. Otherwise there would be no gi
question about it, for it is not an to
experiment, but an established fact,
tried and proved over and over d<
again, that general education, has
conf..rred untold benefit wherever it
has been tried. But such an ab
normal state of affairs has not pre
sented itself where benefit has ac
crued from this system, as now o
presents itself in this country. The a
ill feeling which was engendered ca
by the late unhappy strife between
the two great sections of our coun- nE
try, has nearly or entirely been
swallowed up by a better and more gc
ennobling sentiment, but the rubi
con now to be crossed is the color
line. What docs this mean, taken
in all its bearings ? Does it mean
in the indefinite future, the indis- o
criminate commingling of the races,
following Fred Douglass the pio
neer ? Does it nean ultimately the
political ascendency of an inferior tv
race over a superior one ? Or is
the history of the aborigines of tl
this country to be repeated in the of
history of the negro ? C
The political relations of the fe
races are antagonistic. This is the
troublesome barrier in the way of C
political purity at the south. How is A
this difficulty to be eliminated from
our political horizon satisfactorily ~
to both parties ? W~hen this is B.
done we are ready for free educa- N
tion. It is claimed by the advo- am
cates of this system, that it will G
give us an intelligent suffrage. Is ~
M
there no dloubt, as to the direction Ci
this intelligent suffrage will take ? s11
These considerations give point to S
the question, will the system bene- N
fit us politically ! It is also B
claimed that it will give us intelli
gent labor. The trouble is that the Ti
two mill's tax alone has proved E
sufficient to make some of our col N
ored friends too intelligent to la- 1
bor at all. It is a fact that those of B
H
the negroes who think themselves B,
educated, are, as a rule, worthless M
as laborers. There may be isolated P
exceptions. I have seen none. So C
this is the way that the agricultural ho
iterests of the country are to be th
advanced. If we are to be di
vorced politically, it would be well l:
for us to do so in all other rsspects.
Let the freedman have the benefit
of his own tax, and the white peo
ple of theirs. Or give him if you
please, the national donation, if WX
there is to be any, and let its have
the entire benefit of our two mills
tx. The white people of the
south are able to educate their own
pople, if they wish to do so, with
out calling on the general govern- p,
ment for help. This disposition of am
the matter may not be p)racticab)le, fa
but it is certainly desirable. am

The rains descended and the
winds blew, and when the flood q
arose the streams did not only beat ni
vehemently but overflowed. My hi
house was on a rock, like a wise c

cold not grow without some earth, thi
oats, corn or cotton, on the rock, cl
hence great was the wvash away of th
all my living (in prospect.) So we g
had to address ourselves to the t
Herclean task, of regaining what m
we could, plant more and cultivate j
the little that had lodged on the fa
flats. Thus it was utterly impos- m
sible for me to engage in the can- el

help of a kind providence I will
soon be able to take myself and one
horse out of the farm, and will visit

death and its sombre shadows so pain
fully affected the common heart of our
community as on the recent demise of
MR. T. EDWARD GRENEKER, the
eldest son of Mr. T. F. Greneker, of
the Newberry HERALD, who departed
this life at 5 o'clock on the morning
of July 18, 184, in the 19th year of his
age, and after an illness of three
weeks.
A few brief months ago, while yet a
boy, all unconscious of care, he came
quickly to realize the feeble condition
of his father's health, and bravely and
cheerfully took the burden of business
from his careworn mind, assuming
himself the responsibilities of the
office. To the gentle, frank and court
eous bearing of the boy he added the
firm, energetic self-reliance of the man,
and at once began a bright and useful
business course. He entered as fast
and so far as he could into all the
business and social relations of the
community, identifying himself with
its interests, zealously discharging
his duty in their behalf. and drawing
towards him an host of true-hearted
friends. Like a many-sided jewel he
was rapidly unfolding beautiful traits ;
but, alas ! they are all extinguished.
Yet, as the youngest journalist in the
State, his career was brilliant as it has
been brief !
His last form is made up and pre
sented to the Master Workman. Will
He not pronounce it justified ? No
longer the music of his footfall breaks
the stillness of the home he loved so
well, for he hath mounted the golden
corridor that leadeth to the land of the
leal, where his splendid talents, his
virtues and his graces shall have full
play In that perfect life beyond !
Thus has he passed away ! In the
vigor of youth, handsome, happy-heart
ed, in easy circumstances, surrounded
by devoted friends, to whom he
was loyal, and with no regrets and
no blots upon his life's ledger, he
stood In the beautiful vista, and, beek
oning the pale boatman, said : "I am
ready to depart."
He was followed to the grave by a
very large cortege of sorrowing friends
to whom, as the silent years roll by,
the memory of his glad young life shall
be fragant as ointment poured forth.

THoMAS EDWARD GRENEKER, old
est son of Mr. Thos. F. Greneker, of
Newberry, died Friday morning, the
18th instant, of typhoid fever, in the
19th year of his age.
We have known few young men
who have started out in life with brigh
ter prospects of a useful and honorable
career. Nothwithstanding his youth,
he had already shown decided talent
for business, being industrious and
energetic, and was looked upon in
Newberry as one of our most promis
ing young men. Since the first of May
last he had been the sole manager and
one of the editors of the Newberry
Herald-his father, on account of ill
health, having turned over to him its
entire management. This trust he was
discharging in a manner that would
have done credit to one of riper years.
and was especially gratifying to his
father and his friends. Socially he
was a favorite with young and old:
his happy, cheerful disposition made
him a pleasant companion among those
of his own age, and his uniform cour
tesy and gentlemanly bearing won for
him the respect of all. - The death of a
young man of such character and such
promise is a publiec calamity. The
bereaved family, in their sad affliction,
have the profound sympathy ef the en

his wisdom and power, removed from
the midst of us our associate, T HOMAS
EDWARD GRENEKER ; and the esteem
which he won from us during his con
nection with the Lotus Club, prompts
us to give expression to our high re
gard for him, as well as to declare our
acquiescence in the ways of Provi
dece, therefore,
RSOLVED: That we cherish the
memory of T. Ed. Greneker as a young
man of high tone, of unblemished

his manner, discomforting himself for
the pleasure of his frieinds, though

without negligence of parental duties,
of untiring industry, rewarded by pro
gress in his business, and yielding to
te claims of religion.

warning for us to regulate our con
duct with cauticus propriety, humbly
acknowledging ourselves liable to mis
terious dlispensations under which we
are helpless:
R ESOLVED: That a blank page be se

end the publishers have engaged
the work a corps of skilled design
