Not again . upow the-field of battle, nor.ior.the present in the political arena ?<-must the white race assert its preroga tives, hut upon the intellectual calibre depends the issue of the antagonism that may exist, between the two races living in the State. But we do not mean to theorize and speculate upon this question of education, but-would wish to bring the -subject practically before tho people. All feol tho importauce? coeducation, the only questiotiJshow to u??W it prac ib.w To" get up a system, xncnp enough and convenient enough for all to enjoy this advantage. Now at tho Court House, and in the villages in our County, the quest ion. set tles itso.f. Teachers, (he best teachers are there, and scholars arc plentiful and conveniently situated to attend school everyday in tho year. Such is, of course, not, the coso in the country, and it is to propose a plan for those who live iu the country, by which their children can he educated, cheaply and conveniently, that <fe bring the question of education be fore our readers. Now sonic plan like this ; how would it do ? Let different neighborhoods, of | a convenient oztcnt, unite and engage the services of* a competent teacher, pro vide a sohool house', let this be as cen tral in the neighborhood as may bo, let those living near the school house, board the children of those not living near enough, lot the teacher be boarded by eno or more of the families living near the school, and let the families be assess ed in proportion to the children sent to school, allowance being made to those who board the teacher, to pay his salary. If forty children constituted the school one dollar per mouth for each scholar would bo a reasonable, nay, a good sala ry to the teacher, and would not bo felt by the parents. And at this salary the very best teachers can be secured. Let the' families organizing the school ad vertise in tho County and Charleston pa pers and tho very best tcachcr.i will he glad to ttome. In some neighborhoods it may suit only to have a wintor school?from Sep tember to February or March, perhaps five or six months. This could be ar ranged, of course. This or some similar arrangement is feasible and practical, and could bo in augurated this coining fall. For one dollar per month, and tho additional ex pense of boarding, or the inconvenience of taking a child or two to board for the winter?the advantages of a first class edo/tttiou quit be .secured. The ..alary of the teacher for the five or six months would he two hundred or two hundred and forty dollars, which would secure thc%eryicca,o? the very best toachors. l?yeu if lr,ss.scholars can be organized into a school--the }>ay vl. the teacher would bo less, but as many capable per sons would bo glad to accept the situa tion, this arrangement would certainly be better and chetper thau the periodical efforts that are made to start schools, cer tainly better than having to engage a teacher or governess in the family, and fur better and cheaper than Bcndiog your children away to school. Let the people take this matter into consideration. Let the different Town ships entertain the suggestion. Oue, two, or three schools perhaps in each Township, would be about our estimate, and this number could be settled ac cording to the convenience of different neighborhoods. Wo certainly think that the people of the County are waking up to tho impor tance of this matter, and by the organi sation of somo such plan as the one pro posed, the blessings of a good and thorough education will he brought home to all, brought down to suit the means and tho convenience of every one \ic shall speak more of this matter anon, and would be glad to receive and publish communications on the subject. A Eflirospeci. Four years ago our future was dark ' and terribly discouraging to contemplate. < Everything arouud and about us boro the impress of desolation, of the down fall of our effete.and decaying system of civilization ; from the mazes of the won derful histories to come, we could not glean the day of our doliverance. In a word, our situation, our condition seemed one of utter hopelessness. Surrounded by nothing that was inviting or encourag ing in its nature ; nothing to inspire us with hope and aider to press on toward our Mecca. Like some way-worn trave ler in tho vast desert of Sahara, we felt dcsolato without one green spot, or oaris upon which to regale our eyes, or relieve the dull monotony of our lives, with no bird near to carol or warble forth a hymn of cheer mid encouragement Upon this burning und arid desert we were shipwrecked, as it were, hy the mis "vvcT[T(^FT]^^ tain a cooling drink; no dove-like messenger to extend to us the olive brunch of pence. Our whole beings were troubled with heaving emotions of fear for the futuro of our beloved coun try?like a half pent volcano thoy con vulsed our hearts, our day-star was not veiled behind a penumbra shadow of mists and darkness, but was absolutely overclouded, and if there lay any pros pects before us, thej' were occult, we couldu't sec them. In the midst of these trials, and the seemingly utter hopeless ness of our lost condition we forgot that courage, energy and fortitude combined could overcome, could work out for us an eud, a success in our lives which despair aud despondency would ever give over as lost. We were like Rachel of old, ''we wept aud would not be com forted." Hut. the astute observer of all thiugs had not forsaken us in this hour of our affliction, and shipwrecked upon the shoals of despair, His strong arm was at the helm, well and truly able to help and guide us safely through the storm-clouds and breakers which stared us in tho face, and launch us triumphantly in the middle of oightcon sixty-nine. Four years wc have suffered, four years wo have groaned in poverty, but from this onr country has partially recovered, and our Commonwealth will soon have regained her former flatus, only on a firmer and surer foundation. It is pleasing, not to say cheering, to tho unprejudiced mind to contrast the present with our past condition. It is true, there is not. much of an analogy left ; but still the pails of the likeness gone ?s cannot say we regret. Our peo ple are now becoming reconciled to things as they exist?beginning to realize tho truth of the maxim, "That every man is tho architect of his own fortune." But. this was not always tho case, men were once too much accustomed in sub mitting themselves to be passively drawn and pulled about by partj loaders to ever nriivo at positions of trust and im portance themselves. Humiliating as it may be to acknowledge it, yet wc can not deny it and speak the truth. Men may cant about tbo tyranny of the pre j sent, or ol the past lour years; but if they will examine closely (he aspect which things presented 1qu*j anterior to that time, thoy will desory \i spectacle bearing a closer resetabluuc?Mo tyran ny than aught we have seen sioctr-^he advent of the now order of thing?. Why tbo time was once, when certain men's opiuious expressed, was tyranny The poor men of this country (and it is to thorn we are writing) have seen the time whon they would prostrate them selves in senseless homage aud obedience to the will and opinions of those whom tho world called rieb ? those whom wealth constituted leaders?this was ty ranny, this the only despotism we have seen, and it has passed away. The degree of confidence the man of this country have had in the importance of their own individual capacity was too meagre, was insufficient, and hence the loadership rccoguitcd in others. The time was?and we blush to sny it?whon men were afraid to make known their opinions, the courso which their con science?the "Oracle of God," pointed out to them as the right ono. They would Btiflo the dictates of this wise counselor?prefer tho direst penanco, rather than express or advocate a doc trine which thoy knew would be antagon istic to the notions entertained by the above mentioned class. But tli2 school of experience, which some one 3nys, Byron we believe, is the bcsl of all possible schools, has taught, and is teaching many to no longer depend on those old leaders for guidance?they are becoming conscious of the truth of their "own immense importance in the realms of space," and the wisdom of fol lowing at all times and under all circum stances the courso whichever sccmeth right to their inimTs, to ever submit again to the impiety and uuuinnliness of recognizing in others and not in them selves, a leader. Men will hereafter be their own judges iu matters, whether it pleases Mr. This or That or not. Four years ago our country was at u standstill. In the couiinctcial aud finan cial world there was an era of retro gression ; the energy of every depart ment of our couutry was para listed and inert?now witness the difference. The J^m^^Mnej^tf^nniJe on eve^^mnd?-tho | commendable and praiseworthy system of household economy substituted for our former ones of brulcr cc chandcllc, pur les ti< ux touts. Aud who is it can say that our couu try, in every resjx-ct, is not prospering more than she ever did, aud on a more solid basis. Let us bo patient, and ere long our land will be able to boast of a brighter and more durable prosperity than she has ever seen before?a prosperity that will gladden the hearts of the poor as well as the rich, the publican as well as the pharisee. The New York Tribune says: "Our Government must be republican or des potic, and that a rule based on the pro scription of a full third of the adult males? this third comprising two-thirds of the property, with a very large share of the natural ability, experience and in telligence, which arc presumed to fit men for a responsible participation in politics ?is questionably republican. It may do?nay, it must?in the immediate pre sence of a formidable rebellion ; it nan uot be maintained indefinitely after that rebellion has thrown down its arms. Our Southern Repubicans arc quite free in telling us what they must have, and how impossible it is that they should live un der rebel rule ; we tell then!, in turn, that it is impossible that we should por pcluatc a rule over the South, in which the people of the South,or any consider able share of them, are denied a voice. If we should attempt to do it, we should simply sacrifice our ascendancy in tho North, and they can judge where - this Would have the Republicans of tho South. We can do und dare much here for equal human rights. We are a shorn Sampson whenever we shall undertake to arg'to and insist that a part of tho South ern people ought to be disfranchised and powerless evei inoro.
