Butwhen this ,eeapes to be the case, the rule should not be obeybd implicity. Inl South Carolina, the radical pnr. ty contains Tefy few, adl erenta who are fitted moraly an. intellectually to occupy publio-positions. Their only claim is, fitlelity to party, a party that Loi b1ahkgiupted the en tire South. To jmiko radicalisil int4ad'of a knowledge of bookkeop ing, a- criterion of fitness for the Troasuryship for instance is as absurd as to employ a Ioman CaLholio physician or a Methodist tailor, or a Presbyterian cook. .

They are more fitted for the duties of such positions ;-- for three tenths of the cohibine< tuoral and intel ILetual worth of the State is found in their rnuks. Yhcu too they are Mr. Chamber lain's olliof support in his ineasures of i eformn. In the very first strug glo he made for reform, in the 'judi cial election, he was sustained by only twenty out of over ight.y. re puolicans in th.e ,,egislhtu-e. 9iId the com-erivat,ives noutinated a oan. didate of lieii o*tn instead of rally ing to the support of the adn>inistra tion, Gov.

Mr. C mslierlain ia to-day achiev ing a nat pnal reputation, not by his o.wp inherent strength with his par. ty nor through the aid of the party benefited in common with himself. His honors arebestowed upon him by the Spartan band of Conservatives in the Legislature, who with a sm'ill faction of republicans are auflicient to susta in a veto. e' Mr. Chamberlain mdsi~t acknowi. edge these ser vices, IIe must not climb to the Sum mit "whence IFamoe'a proud temple shines afar," upon thme prostrate bodies of eonser-vatives. lie must, while not forsaking any decent repub>licans, also take the con servativ-es by the hand. TIhere are certain offices whieb have no political char-aeter and can llo filled by coneervatives with crod it, Let Mr. Chamberlain so far modify hi enunciation of his erite ion for office by substituting competency, instead of rep ublicanism as the es sential requisite, and lot him make some anbstantial acknowledgment of the, assistance ren dered by the conservati'v es in enimbling him to elear'Iri. ebaracter of several foul blemnishes, received in ,the heyday of radicalisil whon ' ho .!ooked ,p,om all Southerners as v,1. r andi i~ as.. sisting 1.im to uchieve an honora ble reputation. TJihe App3rtionmnent of Sulhool Moroy. Under the fir.st act passed estab haIhing the p)ublig schools, the State ~apperintepdene of lnstruotion was ordered to apportion the amounts assessedl for educational p.urpgses, ao cordimtg to the number ~of child ren in each cunty betwoon the ages of six and sixteen years. By a subsequent act, howcete. the law was amendedh so that the school innds are tal'We hpportioned ncord idig tb thme number of children attend ing tcehool inl echL/ county. Tlio object of.th.s amendment is to inorq'nbo the sehooI'atttida.no,e, it be. ing known that thme nionebt fecoived are proportioll to the number of regular pupils in,enchm district.' We believe, however, that" this change should not have ..teen iade, as the disadvantages arialig fromn it more thani e.uL.terbalance its advan tages. Trhe object of the free school sys tem is to enable every ohild, wheth-. er rich or poor, white Or' celored, to obt'fin a practical edation, In theory, a suln of Wqpy, is set apart yearlyfor,.t'he tui&iou of thin child to bg' paiI out whenever claimed by .)int. ,Jut under the present law, money is appropriated only for those children who are atkqnding sacoole already) while no provision is made for the poor liti.o outgasts that are 'g;ro,wing up in ignorsancd., Suppose one of them uppliot for adnittaneb to a sblo I. l1 lmy be told that ,there is no provi.iun uado for lifmi, that so tiuuh per heiad bia been appropria;ed for th,.so ohildreji that have alwn3s been inl utti tdput'e, aid. that his admianioi will deprivo them of their rights. ilo has c el.imII whiatov,!r to the advnrtgg.s of Ai education. He iuu.,t w4it p41til an' appropriationi be aadp fur thoso children iot in atfeneda.i upou 11n13 school. Whenever there js,,an iucreased attendance tlero x,i't boi an increase in teachur'sipalarie3 aid a correb. pouding diminution of the duration of the tchool term. TlIhi.4aWyeqdmient works injustice. t-t us 34ssum0 that l Wv t,wnsl ij,s have each 500 children within the bchool age, qnd are each entitled to $>00. To. truttees of the arst district be. jug careful in the discharge of their dutie, organize four schools with '25 pupils each, and run thea ive months, keeping their expenditures within their receipt. Tho trustees of the seo,nd di,triot, on the other hand, are cRreless and extravagant, and organize ten s"houli of 30 pu. pils each, which they run for five >nitlis at a cott of $1,500. While No. 1 pa3s up all debt, No. 2 sad-. dies $1,000 of pny certicrt's on. the county. A -d ti bucaeo ho' had three tioi m s. .anny ,. pupils ,iu attendance as,. her sister di4trict, she will, the recond car, . recoeivet $750, to $2f,0 for the other, Th1e next year, No. I neust .eurtail, hei p,3hool attenidicoe by .pne. lal(, or olso run iuto,det e.nqrnip,usjy to re g an equa'iky in the thir.d appor tiounent.. This is pqtting a premi. un upon that very ex-ravagahncu inl onitracting sohigol debt, which is .ow the bane of Ifq yztem. Againjp selious disadvantage in the systeil is that the scl-oo! year jbqgina in October and the school fund is not apportioned until March, by which time the di.triots have already run into debt. Now whei the school fund remains the same 'from year to year, and the, to 4a1 population varies but li.ttle, it if comparatively easy , for 1, t:--1st,ees to make an estimate. of what will be due them. But 'wln ,bo apportion menit is baped., upou the echool at tendangp throughout the state, the gut for each coun,y necessarily 'Iuctugtesgrea.ly.fromu yeur to year, arnd no approximate estimato of it can boa,for,med. TPr ut,tees gro eng tirvly 4t seat ap4 are lipblo citiher to chose the sohools too soon, or to run largely into debt. ,Last year, the quota for ,Feir fild was,adhout 45,500,wben there was tuo largo r.pajtendance for the money duie. Thia g,ear the trustees are rt a ducjng thennumnbir of s..hoolsg so as to avoid .any delioienacy. Now if other,oourt4ies are purguing ,theo.uime extravaggnit ,eo,aree asr befjro,,and are running lay.gely into debt, their proportion'atepn~hool attepnrc wpil be larger thani tat,.of h odsn they will receive tphe li,on's nrrq ef the fund, our coury being rewa.rded. for lher economy by receiving o.nly two or three thiou.sand dollars, instoad of live or six thousand as he,retofore. We trust that this .aanpd.plent will be abolished, andI that the-schoo fund will be appropriated according to the scholastio popu!ation in each ounty. ' Another Disturbane in Edgefield, , Tel.gramrs state that arnothier dis - tur banre occurred in E~ L:.<eld County on Tuesday last. It twill be romp,:nl.ered that last week tho re) donc(oQfi,Uqp. M.

Particulars of the dithiculty h&vei rnot been reepiyed.,' Judge ;,Magh'ey was sent4 by Gov. Chamberlain to ra store order. . ; ' Thoese riots in Edgefield are but/ a legitinyate result of the radical policy of reconstruotion. When the war ended,itMe whites and blacks entertainedl frdndl relations toward each other. Thle radio#1s.began the work of reconstructionr by u.isfranch Is ing the whites and enfranchising 'tho blacks, and this too, in a miajner en.. tirely uncotistitutional. This~ - atue' had.the blacke been tapable of hon eat an4 economical governmept, the whites would in time, have quietly accepted the sit.44tion. But the reconstructed -governmcnts were .huge 9.qginqs gf, opprestion. The whites saw thbir'prdperty and their .liberties wiested from them in"viola. tion.of thl qonstitation. , This in creased .'t)eir niger. Failing after every coiceiv. ble effoit, to induce ti, bla1s to inti;.urato iefor:u, and flinding thir appeals for honest -'gov rnsoetA Ilet with stolid at, pidity or sollen hottility by the blacks, they inaturally believed that the oily way of presering their righta which were impelillcd lay in weec ing forde by force.

E. AIKErN THE GREAT REMEDY FOR CONSUMPTION which can be cured by a timely resort to this stand ard preparation, as has been proved by the hlundreds of testimonials received by the propi'ictors. It is acknowl edged' by many prominent physicians to be the most reliable preparation ever in troduced.for. the. rdlief and cure of all Lung complaints, and is offered to the public, panctioned by the experience of over forty years. Wh6nl resorted to in season it sel dom falls to effect a speedy cure in the most severe cases of Coughs, Bronchitis, Croup, Whooping Coigh, Influenza, Asthma, Colds, Soro Throat, Pains or Sore ness ini the Chest and Side, Liver Complaint, Bleeding at the Lungs, &c. Wistar's Balsam does not dry up a Cough, and leave the cause behind, as is the case with most prepar'ations, but it loosens and cleanses the lungs, and allays irritation, thus removing the cause of the complaint. .REPARED DY ETH W.
