THE FAIRFIED HER ALD WINNSBORO, S. C. Wednesday Morning, An. 27, 1869. D)pr s, Williamsiu; & Ca., Props Invest, and Don't Hoard,-It is Folly. Thousands of dollars, which could be most usefully employed, aro oow lying idle i the South. The want of confidence in the futura of tle coun try, considered politically and social ly, has a great dcal to do with this State of things, but want of informa tion uponi politicl economy and the principles of finance has much more. Now we kn)w how absurd it is to hope to exhibit, to the comprelhcnsion of the Agricultural class-, the truth on this subject, (one of the most diflicult in tihe world) and we beliove that the only remedy is time dissipat ing fool ish fears. The lorsses sustrined by the Southern people, through the Con federate cur renlcy, are too rcevnt, and too feelingly remembered, for thenm to put. faith in flinanciers or in Govern. nIITst paper, and are the argument by which they will a nmswer any :appeal to them to buy U. S. seenrities. And, i ndeed, in this there Is somo good, foi it will lead to other mnd better in. vestimonts for the good of our peoplc in their preseit state. But a panic and distrust of this sort goes further it its effects an(] leads to boarding, th<t most wvorthaliss use to Which- Imione) can be put. ()ur realers will hav< seen1 tllt several mn urders iiave boer colilnitted inl Georgia, to get posses sion of boarded funds. The evil iss< great, that the most enlightonod Itiem bers of society are endeavoring to ox pose the folly of hoarding in the pa pers of-tlat State Wo wvill conten ourselves to-day by quoting the bes articlo we have seon on the sul'jct from the Augusta Constiltutionals0 promising our readers a view on thi subject, inl our noxt issule, which possi ly they havu not soen advaneed else whore. The article from the 'onsli tution'ild is entitled "Gold for Cot toil;" 11and reands as follows ; "We donot know liow' much influ enco the cry of 6'oldfbr Gtlon,' ha! had among producers ; but we are no of those who sympathizo with tht movement.' The planter who sell, his orop and invests tihe pronced i gold, inl nearly every instance, will be Coio a miser on the the instant, [nt instead of being a friend to industr booimes its indirect antagonist. 1I tbn. onnifoinlt.tin of hi i in ot ,41.01i1 compass of selfishliess, and progres. for lin has no mean iig and whole some trade no charm. We thought tle day of hoarding fl preCious metals inl old stoick ings an eracked tea-pots had passe(d away Are we mistlaken ? In the maidst. of unew epoch, are we to have a revival o ancient folly ? Idle capital is fatat to the best interests of any conaniunity and -a treasure secreted in the lius< is a perilous and uncomfortable guest If planters have money in som11 abun danice, let thiem iprove thai r farams embellish and beautify thlir dwol, l ings, liberally educate the ir ehildrem andl (d something for civilization, If, aftev these matteors have bent at. tended to, there still remains a sur plus, how much better to invest it. ir factories, good railroad stoeks or in any euterprise whluich tends to th< common weal. lIf arding is th<4 least worthy thing that cani be don< with it ; and we are suirprisedl tha journals whose prosper'ity depend. upon notivity in business shtould ad vise a course which is cenlanted h< injure traflie, beget miorbidity ti tuaind and stag~nato every faiculty thia should eunole and not iaampa ir, ,We learn that sonie of thle lantore imanginec that a trip to Augusta Is no. cessar in order to paiy the mostitri. ligindebtedness, and that their per s mnal presenco is imiiperat ive to go' mioney out o'f bank. We arie relia bly informed thatt some are not perf'etl cogiziant of the power of a cheek. 1 this be correct, the commission mour. ohant can do mueh to enlighten thos< who need enlighten ment. 80o parties have a dhistrust of banks in general, and National Banks in particular, Strange as this piarados may be, the old ten-oup anad the old stoekinig are conaidored more secur< than the bolts, bars and responsibili, ties of a publio institution). Rleally whiatever- mayv be the faults of th< National Bank, we consider it a mucla better depositor'y than a privatt "dwelling ; and if-.norvous p~erson~s ob. ject to a corporation boeause founded on paper, have we not thae Georgia Railroad Bank wvhioh offers nasceourit3 a magnificent and sub-stantial proper. ty ? Surely it is bettor to confide in these pt rpnghaolds thtan to rely. upon the defenses of somo. treacherous ves, sel or some crazy cupboard. Thie miseries andl vikeissatudes of. this pri vate hioarding are many, aind wo would not live in an isolated distriat with ooncealed gold--no not for'Veniee."' Self-Education-Two E~are Not One. We rieturri 'to' this" .ul.jeoet one l'~mor. Hwho hathi enra to hear, lot gisrom~ tselI1 ntjhpt the object dEslgpeyov-j~enee in bestowing 't wo oars on mani is, that the imnpree, ea mad. upbD otno,' ?IEt) ke correct ed 'o *~1 ros on or t~ie oth r Thr uip, said to the editor of this paper, that, "with his eyes shut," owing to be ing dealf in one ear, 'ho could not tell from what direction any sound came, whether from behind, or from the P'ight, or the left, or from hi front." Now we go further and assert, that what is physically true of more sounds, is mentally and morally true of beliefs of every kind. If but one ear be used, reader, it will be impos sible for you to know where your neighbor stands. It is essential to a right judgment of any individual or prinecile, that two cars be uised, and a heariig I o given to both sidev of any etiestion. Observe that earnest conscientions uniolufond ing man. Ilis strongest de sire is, to avoid strife and attend quietly to his own business. But lie is a positivo character. lie has con. victions and purposes of his own, Suppose now that somo miserable fol. low, say a born iiggard for example brings himniself in contact with him and tries to shake him from the plIai course lie has mtarked out for himself and is completely foiled by his quiel determinat ion. H1e feels his rebuf and tihe moral superiority of the mat who has simply hold his ground Unconsciously perhaps to himself, h< dislikes him, and then easily miisun dorstands or purposely misrepresent him. Reader, your course is plain Listen, wo would havo you listen al ways, li.ton with your left car, bu then turn and liseni with the eright ne Your judgment, will then be correct. Again, observe tho peculiarities o that man's manners and charaotor .Examniio them in themselves, and to chances to one, they nro really inne - cent. Perhaps when in earnest hi I tone is qutrolous I his josture abrupt his wit or humor flashes and takes yo by surprise ; his candor amuses you , Withal, yort perhips can porceive lofty tone, a purposo higher than you own. Beware, beware, beware of th - green-eyed monster. Ile is a man'< - mtore power, of greater fearlessness o - character, than .yourself. Don't r< vengo yourself upon his infirmitio. What know you of his early histor' of tle long sickness perhaps of Ii childhood, of the solitude perhaps< his early training, of the overwholn ing aillietion petrhaps that almost uin - seated his reason (for you can see th 'warmth of his affection) of tihe bittc disappointn.ent perhaps of his ambi tion. Ili short, "who knoweth th m1tan that is it; him 1'' Are you goini to listen, with one oar, to flippar coimmnient s upon that man's ontwork and not listen, with tle other, to th strong, firm beatof his manly heu iwiti in / Again, it sometimes hatipplens thi Isilly people imiagine absurdly that a innocetut man's plans are antagonisti .to thte plants of themselves or of somi old cronty. They are foolishly stirroi up. Just in the niok of time, an as brays, or which is the same thing some stopid biped starts a slander s absurd, a lie so patent to peoplOeo ordinary capacity, that ntone but th tnilfully prejudiced will believe it "hlow strange I" they itmediately os hltimn, "lfow eccentric I IHnve you heard it ? Well, I can hardly tin)m it, but stranger things have htappenot they say"-and out comes the lie, ant to ey roll it as a sweet morsel undo their tongues I [loader, rotmombo the dloetritne of TwO EA11s. It is th doctrine of Jlesus Christ. "lie wht hath ears to hear, lot him boar. Listotn with your left car, but bofor you fmnish, be sure to -listens with the righi one. There is nothing more impor tant in self-edutentionei thtan this. The doctrine of -rWO E~ARS is thu stated classically, by Or'id, if we r a membonbr arighat, " Audi sulteri part.' "From the habit of bearing the othe1 aide." A concluding eaution, andi wi will pass on, when next we take ni this~ subject, from '"the ear, the socia organ,'' to "t-ho eye, the intolloiua organ," Bome people, reader, hav< been largely endowed, by a benevo lent Providence, with ears grand anm mnagnificent. It by no means require a mti.oscope to see the extraordiniar' extent of their Creator's gift. Thoil ears aro'not only very large, but the2 carry t'hein pricked up and ready foi use ; nevetholosg, a closer obsorva tion deyglops the interesting fact, thal despite all of.this magnificent audito fy appatatus, they ire inoapa'llo 01 hearing anything but what they desir< hetforehiand to hoar, and are deaft< the simplest correction. 'We know of but one really good fortune for thest people of eubhirnely extensive audito, ry apparatus. It is that they shouk voltuntarily put thtemsolves across th<i path of one naturally gifted, by th< same Providence, Wth a ricb vein 0: hbumorous sarcasm. To hear such ar one in the freer moments of privat< ~ohypsatiqn, exhmibit lis keen eye fot rii~t rnenncotisms and pecnliari 1~. tie., his acute .porception of the ab. surd, and pour out flood a tor flood of sarcasm and wit, exhibiting, in strik ing lights, the large cars of the largely endowed individuul that lias atteipt ed to make him the butt of his clumsy ridicule, would cure you, reader, and cure you completely, of the habit, if you ever had it, of using but one car, or of using both cars, though larger than the ears of Balaam's ass for but one nurrow minded purpose.

A word of explanation, therefore, miay not he amiss. I There are in Fairfiehl Distrid, rens oning from the mineir of young li - dies simiultaiseisly ednieneAl , before war, at Monticello, Dolko. Winnsboro and else wh ere, over two iunidred young ladies, whoso eelin tion has r been, during tie pnst few wretched years,grossly neiglected or impe rfect ly attended to, wlose parenits alc noe , - by reason of ite presont crop,fit// s aible to be economeel and smve nmney by sending then to a well v-cnd u.ted ai school.

I\owrr r alme f ble the town patroia age Imay be nioV, f and may becoime hereafter (for Winnsboro is certainm to grow) the pa 1. tronage froi the sut rro'nl d iig country , is far higher game. If Mir. Stuirt at s tracts a portion of it, he will have in f jured no one, and will heo content. - Just so, to', ill fixiiig upon rates of tuition, Mr. Stu art looked furtler 0 than Wiinnsboro anud its execelleit r schools. His j udg meit being con vinced that a chango of social condi e tion called for a change in the rates of g rates of several other tehools similar t to the one he designed to estallish, , and after a caroful com Pa risol alnd tn 0 exercise of his-owin ju dgiment approv - ed by that of two most sober and judi cious friends, ie published his rates. t Let the continility recollent that h ri took the in iteative in lessenin1g the o price of tuition, to sut their poer1ty. a Whether voelunta rily or by comnpul I sion, every otlher school, inchlutling Mt. s Zion Institute, has followed ms mExnz , PLE. Mr. Stuart, from long expeiicneo as f a teacher, has returned tothec good old 3 practive of a morning and an evenming session, so miuchi bet ter for the I onslt h -of the teahoe.m and progssc of the pn I pil. Let the conimiunity remember that HET JIAs tN'fnODUCED this whole I sonme reform, andlP pi t~y-thirough his I example and earneust advice, it is not, r improbable that his warm friend, the Principal of Mt. Zion Inst it ute, may return to the good old enstoui. ) Lastly, when it is dlesired andi reruest 'ed, but not of hesr wise., Mr. Stun rt will teach either Lamt in or French without C extra chavgo. Hie is surprised that a gentleman .hould have asserted, thmat lie had refused to teach his daughter, Sunless allowed to teach liar French, Latin or Greek. What an unmitigat ed absurdity ! Iliw thick must be that mnan's skull I How munch tough. or than shoe-loather what passes in psido of it for his brain, who does iiot totally dIsbelievo it.! Is Mr. Stuart Iinsane 1 Has lie tanght fourteen years, and not kinow how wretched the - spelling, bow disgraceful the writing, I how abominable thme punctuation, how confused and jnmbled thi a matheimati cal instruction-, how incorrect the grammar, mn these deplorablo (days ? And does ho propose sulocido at thme start, by nogleotinig thceeessentials,~ and cramming a brasin unfit for it with Latin, Greek, anid Frenchi ? And lies Mr. Stuart shown so little public spir it, that any Inhabitant of Winnsboro could hoar such a mnisrepresentation, and then cirCuIthIe it / I f his dlog had beon so misrepresented, Mr. stuart would have said, "Sir, this is a is take. I cannot believe oven my pup. py such a fool. I must hoar him bark out the absurdity, before I be. hieve him oapable of it,'" But though hoecannot but take this view of this misrepresentation, Mr. S. It not irritated overmuoh thereby, and has no little resentments to fosteor, but calmly and confidently gonmm'its his reputation for manners, character and ability to teach, to the ket ping of thosO young ladies who have begun to give him a fair trial, and his on terpriso some little encouragement.
