Don't loso au opportunity to visit Charleston during thc few remaining days of the Exposition. The show is worth travelling a long distance to see. Another great trouble about the rhilippippine situation is that we are likely to run short of men for court martial service if we keep on propar ing charges. Our waste basket is being filled these days with political puffs sent us for publication. And that is where they will continue tn land unless the cash accompanies them. _. m m - Mr. Bryan has lit en promoted from thc position ?>f a candidate to the posi tion nf special correspondent ??f a well known weekly periodical. Mr. lilyan should make a good correspondent. Admiral Schloy i> in a p. sitiou to make a very creditable exhibition of silver and other souveniers given him by his admiring countrymen, while those who sought to blacken his fame have received nothing from tho same source hut contempt. - m . -i . Andrew Carnegie, who is trying to give all of his wealth away, has suc ceeded so far in giving ^'(?7,0^7,'.ili^J for public libraries, to schools, etc. Ile has given more to this country than to any other. In the future he will reduce the number of big gifts and increase the number of smaller ones. Col. Andrew Dickens Butler died at his home in Aiken County on Wed nesday, 14th inst., aged 70 years. He was stricken with paralysis of the heart on Saturday night preceding and never regained consciousness. Col. Butler served as Commissioner of Agriculture until 1S'.?2, and in war and peace he was devoted to his moth er .State and served her faithfully. Ile was one of the best and bravest men the State; has ever had. As a result of correspondence be tween some charitable citizens throughout the Stato and officials of the railroad lines running from the several orphanage institutions in this State to Charleston, arrangements have been perfected whereby tho chil dren of these institutions will be given an opportunity ta visit tho Exposition, free of cost, on Wednes day, 28th inst. Thc entire body of orphans will be taken down over the Southern llailway and returned over the Atlautic Coast Line. This is cer tainly a very kind and generous act on the part of these two great soul less(?) railway systems. Anderson County can be counted on to contribute generously toward the Hampton monument fund. The movement to raise a fund sufficiently large to erect a monument worthy of Gen. Hampton is one that has our entire approval, and we shall gladly co-operate with those who have the matter in charge in every way pos sible. We have but one suggestion to make: Do not let the matter lag. What is to be done should be done promptly, and at the outset a time should be fixed for closing the sub scription lists. Twelve months, it seems to us, is ample time in which to raise all the money needed and get work well under way on the monu ment. Wn. P. Calhoun. Esq., of Green ville, has recently published au in teresting volume on the "Caucasian and the Negro in the United States." a copy of which he has sent The In telligencer. Mr. Calhoun reviews the political, social and educational his tory ot' the negro from emancipation up lo the present time, and thinks it is impossible for the two raecs to live together in this country. Ile thinks that the negro should be colonized hy the Federal government ou some of its unoccupied lands in (?ne of the Territories. Throughout the book handles the important subject io a most interesting and intelligent man ner, and is worth the perusal of any man who feels au interest in the sub ject. - -? mi - All the leading Democratic papers in the United States nre severely and justly criticising and condemning the recent speech of Senator Tillman in the Senate chamber, when all the Democratic Senators, being so com pletely disgusted with his remarks, left thc floor. In speaking of the speech, the New Orleans State says: "Thc hemoeratic newspapers all over the country arc making it plain that they do not intend that their party shall he held responsible for the wild outbreaks of Tillman of South ?aroltna, ami this is as it should he.

Ile is a very eloquent orator and we anticipate a tine speech from him. lt is the general opinion in some places that school commencements are altogether unnecessary and should bo abolished. They consider 'th? prepara tions that ate necessarily taken for a good commencement as dine thrown away. However, this is not tin* opin ion of nil. There are some, who take an opposite view, and w ish the scholar not only to improve in mental abilities, but also to be competent to utilize ev ery faculty lui has. If lae scholar cnn speak it will improve him, and if he is timid it will enable him to com?' before the public without fear. Months of training aro taken to increase the men tal capacities of a scholar, but nothing does more to improve, nothing more to encourage mid n?>thing more to give confidence than to allow the child to have his say.
