The same charge rill be made when it is so enclosed that it can* lot be examined without destroying Mae wrap* >er. The same applies to any printed matter rhioh may be sent at loss than letter postage.

A handsome open carriage, drawn by tiro pair of fine English grays, l iddon by pos? tillions in faultless tops and loathers and jack Ota, waa drawn .up at tho steps, and the Prince of Wales stopping in, took his seat with his book to the horses. The Princess of Wales followed. Then came tho Viceroy, who insis? ted on the Prince changing his place and sit? ting beside the Princess.

Thc Bill on Public Education TO THE EDITOR OF THE HEWS. The bill lately passed in tho Senate of the St ate of South Carobna, on public education, is now beforo the Legislature, and it is to be hoped that the Legislature will amend it so as to render it effective Tor tho promotion of both mental and physical education. The prominent feature cf that hill, as pass? ed in tbe Senate, is to secure a Rood salary to the superintendent of education and li in oounty commissioners, but no action is taken to ad? vance education. It establishes a board of ex? aminers, composed of tho Superintendent, the Seoretary and the Auditor of the State, having ohorgo of "giving certificates of quali? fication for teaching in the school to all per? sons who pass a satisfactory examination.'* Tb is, aocordmg to us, is not satisfactory. For where is the programme" for that exam? ination ? What proves that those thrco officers are, or will bo in the future, competent to perform the important duties of examiners ? Why compel teachers from every part of the State to go to Columbia to pass their examina? tion ? In every State whore public schools are in existence, there is a normal school where per? sons aro trained to teach lu common schools. It was BO in this State before the war. if our legislators intend to dispense with' a normal school, at least they must take measures for scouring gool teachers; otherwise tbe intended reforms will never take place, and abuses will be more flagrant than ever. Public schools are supported by publio money, and tho publio is entitled to know how teachers are appointed and remunerated. Why, then, not prescribe that the examination of teachers shall bo made pnblioly, as is done with the doctors and lawyers. This should be dono fer every branch of education. Tho pub he would be satisfied that merit, and merit alone, only presides st tho appointments of teachers, now that it hos turned fashionable to bo a teacher. Nepotism, favoritism and po? litical influence must bo excluded from public schools. Teachers must bo appointed and paid according to (heir own merits and quali tications. But at any rate their salaries must bo sufficient for their own support; ot her wiso tho profession will be confined to a class ot per? sons who have other means, for their living. Thia would be creating a monopoly for the benefit of persons in good circumstances. If ladies are entitled to be teachers, this must not be to tho exclusion of gentlemen. Bnt whero is the gentleman who will be willing to teach in publio schools, if he cannot make bis living by it; when his salary is not equal to half of the wages of the lowest laborer, whoso habits and living aro not expensive ? In the said bill not a word is said about the physical education of the children. Will the superintendent and bis commissioners ever think of the development of youth, both in body and mind? Will they look for the devel? oped muscles and rigorous frame of the body, ?ts the precursor of support and actual aid to a well balanced intellect ? Will they prepare the young girls for future ?vives and mothers, and the boys for muscular und well developed young men ? Mens sana in corpore sano is an axiom whioh has hitherto been ignored, especially in the Boxamon schools of this country. Too often bbe intellect is stimulated at the expense of the body. Modern physiology teaches us that every intellectual effort, every emotion of the heart, depends for its perfect healthfulness upon the minutest parts of our physical frame. This is true especially for what is termed the nervous system. If put out of order by over-stimulat? ing it at school, soon the frame of tb o child ?oes wrong, and see the consequences. The child, if eager to learn, becomes the favorito of the teaoher, who stimulates him to vin the prisa at the examination; his parents, gnorant of the physical laws, allow him to itudy till late hours. They are proud to see he name of tbe child in the local papers as laving gained the prize of his class. When bo child awakes his first ?bought is not of his nomin sr prayer, but of his lessons. Hesw.il ows his breakfast, and off to school runs the roor victim, half tired and weak from sleep d is urbod by dreams of lessons lost and Rained. There tho children are crowded in large bulld? ogs generally not sufficiently ventilated; the brenoon is spent man atmosphere entirely un? it for human beings to live m; alternately ex? posed to a stifling heat or chilled hy open windows raised from time to time, in order that * achers and pupils migbt momentarily breath vitli comfort. How do they spend the short recessesallowed ?0 them? Bo we find in our common -schools uiy gymnasium or exercises conducir e to the leveiopment ef the body, os is done in Europe? the Grecian and Roman Republics ware more irise than is the modem Republic et America. There children wore compelled, not only to earn how te read and write, as provides onr nil on ?ducation-, but girls and bovs had to tppear in the Agora and partake of bodily ex jrcisee. Let us not forget that common schools are ttt end ed hy children of good families, and lhere are many in that category now a days ?vhocaanct afford to supply their children with ;ho implements required for the ph v sic al edu? cation of their children. Upon the State there s inoumb int the dnty to provide for them, if ne new order of things is true" to the mission t proclaims to have to protect and advance the ho matter. L. DuBos. Charleston, March 4,1869. Salt as av Fertiliser. TO THE EDITOR OF THE T?HW3. Some time ago, when in England, I was laesing through Lancashire,and noticing all the louis to bo White, as if covered with a hoar rest, I inquired what it was, and was informed hat it was common salt, whiob. the farmers ?sed as their most important fertilizer. Hfif ravelling in the interior of' Pennsylvania I jeroeived the same thing, and was (here also nforraed that -the article produced the moat >enefioial results. I desire to suggest the use of this article to ?ur -farmers in the interior, where marah mud s not obtainable, and the fields suffer from Ironght. Salt has a remarkable 'effect in re? aming moisture, and even in that reapeot done is very valuable, as in a great measure t prevents the parobing of the ground hy he intense heat df the summer sun. Tbe best quantity to be put upon land in the nterioris about ene sack per aere, and, in apt, from close observation I oonsider a oom >iiiattou of fertilisers will produce fifty per tent, snore per acre tban anyone hind used klone. The best sorts and proportions for or Unaryland I oonsider to he about, guano one mndred and fifty pounds, poudrette two hun? dred and fifty pound?,'land plaster ona kundi od rounds, and salt two hundred and twenty rounds; in all. sere* hundred and dwenty rounds of fertilizers per nore, costing about lift. This, with good cultivation and an ordi mry season, should give six hundred pounds >f cotton? in faot, there ia no reason why any and cannot be made to produce two bales per ?re. I hope soon to see the article of mit Idly appreciated by our fanners, and take its dace among cur regular fertilizers. F Annexa. ?. -???-?.,..

A. WILLING WITNESS. The Libel of the Governor ot South Cere linn upon the People of South' Caro? lin?. Wo make some extracts from tho sworn tes? timony of Governor Seott in the Third Con? gressional District contested election case. In reply to a question by S. L. Hogo, Gover? nor Scott says: I am Governor R. K Root*. Governor of tho State-was so In July. August, September, October and November, 1868-inaugurated 9th July, 1808, and have boen Oovernor up to the present time. During that time the political condition of Newberry, Abbeville, Anderson and Edgefleld was ono of great excitement. 1'he laws como not be enforced, and were net enforced m tbese counties. The obstruc? tion of hw oaoae from the fact tint political organi? zations set at defiance the offloeis or the law. The organizations were the Republican and Democratic parties. The Democratic organization w s ar-dyed aga mut tho law. I received the infonmtion as Oov iVuor tbst the Democratic party waa organized fer the purpose of preventing the officers of tho law from ec f?>r 'ing the law against any ot' their partisans, sud for the purpose of controlling tho olect ons to take place on the 3d November, in the interest of that party alene. These political organizations armed themselves in order to carry out the objects and purposes of their organization I was informed bv men who claimed to belong to Democratic clubs that they wero providing themselves with 'sixteen shooters and Winch? ?ter rifles, with tho declared purpose ot first controlling tho election by beeping the negroes away from the polia, and ir resistance was made they would shoot the negroes down, and thereby pre? vent the more timid from attending at all. Thev did with my knowledge bring into tho State the 'Winchester rill,?a in accota ?nee with' these dec'arattons. Th ro was no election for Con? gress in Edgefleld County, Third Congressional District. The reason why is this : Tho law made it my duty to appoint tute? commissioners of election in each county ; two of those I first appoint? ed wore white men aud one a colored man, of that county. The white men objected to serve because that particular colore J man was a member of the board. I acoor Jingly appointed three other commis? sioner!, oue of whom was a Mr. Rout, a memb?r of the present Mouse of Repr?sent?t!vc.?. He replied to me that lt waa impossible for the board to Borve because it required all of his time to save his life. That ho had boon shot at twice ia bis own residence, had escaped front his house under cover ot darkness, and was .then writing to me from his place of concealment in the swamp. It was too late then to appoint any other commission? ers of election, as th* law required a no.iee of twenty days before an election could be held The general condition of political affaira in that county.as far as the Bopublioan party was concerned, as regards their safety, I can only state my opinion, based upon resorts of citizens living in the county.. (Bar. Pope objected to the opinion based upon such informa? tion.) 1 think there was scarcely a mail received In the Executive Department dosing the months of September, October and November, 1863, that I did not get one or more letters, i sporting the murder of citizens of the county, and claimed in th-se letters to be murdered in consequence of their political opinion, or other outrages committed on them, and begging of me io send a military force to the county to give protection against lawless men. Q.-What waa the condition in Abbeville as to out? rages; also, of Newberry? A.-Tho same as in Edgefleld. In Abbeville Coun? ty I have rep rt on nie of nineteen murders Those murders were also committed before the November eleotions. Judging from the former election ia A ril, and making due allowances for natural chai ge s and influences that might legitimately have been brought to bear.and judging furthermore by the statements of men fro tn tho county of both political par-iee, it is my opinion that the Republicans would hare carried tho county by 1800 or 200S v.tes. I ffi?ta bJ Bepubl can, Doge's matoj-Jiy for Congress. As to Newberry County, lu a fair election, f ?an Only lodge of it ft om the same Information I had as to Abbeville. The majority in Newberry could have been from ton to twelve hundred, same as f ir tb* Legislature. Tho violence bi Newberry was not to tho same extent as in Abbeville as to mut der, but the same-intolerance existes as to colored men voting. 1 here were two oa-es of murder in New berry-Lee Nance and a saan by the name of Johnson Qlassgow-prominent colored men i nat I now recol? lect.

It was a matter ot 11 difference to sae whether I was voted tor by white or colored men, no.' did I regard it aa impor? tant to the result, so long as there wasa talr elec? tion, ano the voters bid the right to exercise the privilege guarantee ! to them by the laws of the country. Q.-That may ba true, but was it net the fact th'it you were elected by colored voters almost eui ?rely ? a.-I have no means now of knowing the relative humber of white and colored votes cast for me, bat I kno v as a matter ot necessity that I received near? ly all the colored votes cast in the State, as they were Republicans from necessity, and voted for the Republican (acdldatea. Q--m lag tho canvass for Congress were you at any thee or times, and how often, in the Third Con? gressional Dis trie, o?t of the County of Richland? A.-I was never out of the City Columbia to visit any portion of the Third Congressional District dur lng the canvass. Q -Were yon in any of these cou ties before the canvass ? A.-I never was. Q.-Have you been since ? A.-I have not. My duties hare have rendered lt almost impossible to leave the capital. Q.-Your information, then, is derived from others ? A.-Yes. Hy information is derived from informa tion ol citizens living in these counties, from civil officers of the State government, aud military offl eera who were on duty in these counties. Q.-You say that the reslstauoo to tbe laws was en? tirely by Democratic Organization?. Who gave you this Information. Damscrats or Republicans ? A.-Roth. Many men of the Democratic pan y were opposed to these Democratic orgauis ? tiens for ihe purpose of resisting the law and setting at de? fiance the authority of the ?tate government. Q.-Pray na i e some of these Democrats who gave you this informationf A.-I am not at liberty to nama them, as they en joined coufldence. claiming that it it waa knowu that they t. ava the information whereby tue par ies might be brought to justice, their own lives and properly would bo io daugor.

Q-You spoke ??white men being armed. Do you not know thatthere w*re armed bands of negroes lu Edgefleld and Abbeville, and were you not applied to frequent by te prevent their ute of these arms f And what did you.do to prevent lt ? A.-I de net know that there were such armed bands ia these oonnrtos, nor oo X now recollect of any report of such armed bands being made to me from Abbeville, lt may. however, have been made, as there was a general anmox of armed hands of ne groes. Q.-Do jpou know that the importation of arms into the State waa brought about by Ufo met that every negmaaaain the State was the owner ot a fire? arm, and the white man almost entirely unarmed? A-On the contrary I knew to the reverse af that' Yo? would scarcely meet K white man who did not have one revetver if not more, and a double barrel shot gun. It is true that many of the colored men were armed ?Uh shot guns aad oki muskets, bat net more than a lar;e. minority oithetn had even these arms. I wish to Say that I gPe the white of the Mats th* credit With more intelligence and knowledge of the negro character than te believe that it was necessary Jo any emergency to provide themselves with the d?struotiw weapons m a tl sae of prefour i nasos.

Of the newspapers on om exchange list scarcely any two seem to agree in views of tho inaugural address of President Graut. We make some extracts from theif comments : I From tko Baltimore hun.] The inaugural address is inax'ked by the sim? plicity, conciseness and dircotv.ess of the man of action, and of one who ia mare accustomed tq, express himself through (he medium of deeds than of word-). Ita utterances aro calm, frank and deoidod. It is .encouraging to hear him deolare at the outset that he commences the duties of his offioe untra nimelled. [IT:om the Ballimore Cosette.] To undertake to pass any decisivo judgment upon the inoomlng President, or to venture to forecast the character of his bduttstration upon the solo basis of the address in question, would be premature, if not unfair. His, language will probably be differently interpreted by thoso who merely read it as it runs, and by those who oonoidor it in connection with his previously recorded acts and opinions. Timo will ?oon ahow conclusively whether General Grant is to be tho chief of a party or the hope ot a nation. [From the Richmond Dispatch.] The inaugural is a very plain and unpretend? ing document. ?t^ propositions are general und national, affording little room tor obj action or oritioism. With reference lo the South there is only one passage which bas an espec? ial bea ring, and that is what ho tAys ab.mt suf? frage, viz : "Th? question or Suffrage is one which is likely to agitate the public BO long as % portion of tho citizens of the nation aro ex sluded from its privilleges in any State." This may be fairly understood to include disfran? chised whites; but General Grant coup los it witli a sentence recommending the adontion by the States of the Fifteenth constitutional amend? ment, which is a mere "negro" amendment. While we have no doubt that Gone ral ??rant meant to include white men in the passago juotcd above, we think it unfortunate that he lid not separate it moro completely from that ?vhich followed about the "amendment.," aa it frill give "oolor" to a construction whioh will JO placed upon it by-some. [Frota the Richmond Enquirer ] If the Senate refrained from repealing the reiiure-of-offioe act iu order to seo President Inuit's hand, wo do not think they have made nuoh out of him. Thero is in general a stu? bed retioence about tho inaugural that be? trays a good deal of thinking on Ute part of the President, while it avoids any committal upon frbioh the Senate can lay bold in the way of apology for refusing still longer to remove the .c jib-bit" from tho mouth of the Executive [From the Richmond Whig.] The inaugural will be read by tho people <8f Virginia with unalloyed satisfaction. One has july to consider what sort of a manifesto there would have been, in its stead, if some real representativo of the Radio 1 party had been elected President-some'.genuine expo? nent of the fierce and malign ??>iri t tbat has swayed the two last Congresses-aomo Sum? ner, or Wade, or Butler-to appreciate propei ly tue animus of the new President, as illus? trated not more in what ho says than in what tie so significantly forbears lo say. For how tong a timo hos it been that we bavohada President either from tho nox?x or the South, bofoio this one, who, in a formal avowal of his sentiments and programme of action, has ig? nored tho negro as a political' issuo, and avoid sd sectional allusions altogether 1 And how strange it seems to have tbeo&otof a party whose spit it toward^ *Rio youth -has seemed little less than Satanic, presenting his views of the nationaffituation without making one or? te us. ve refer enc J to tho recont past, or apply? ing ooo insulting epithet to those of whom it aaa been the custom of the favorite loaders of that party to speak only as *. rebels," " trai tora>r and M telons." Jit was' W^ > inadver? tence that these pregnant omissions occurred. [From the Macon Journal.] President Grant's inaugural will disappoint many of bia supporters, but to the South it apoaka with no uncertain voice. We have no? thing to hope for from tho new administration. The affaira of the government aro to be admin? istered, not, perhaps, in a way to please tho extremists of the Radical party, but cortaiuly with no reference to the wishes or interests of the Southern States of the Union. Under a show of brave words, and an assumption of in? dependence, there plainly runs a current of Buoserviencv to party behests, and an assur? ance to its leaders that their wishes and ~>un sels will not be disregarded. Grant is a radi? cal, and a slavs of the bondholders at. that. [From tho Na donal Intelligencer,] On yesterday President Graut announced in a brief, concise and energetic speech to Uie American pe opio the general principles which would guide his administration. Wo were not among those who expected or desired to find in this address great minuteness fend elabora? ting of views; and though his statements are in general and somewhat guarded terms, we find no occasion in this either for criticism or regret. There is a very general disposition among the people, in which we folly sympa? thize, to give the uew President a fair trial as he enters upon his difficult duties, to respect bis intentions, and second every Just and well meant endeavor ho may make for the publie good. And thus,' though this paper may in somes parUcularafall short of, and in oihoi s ron counter to our wishes, we shall feel bound to await a fuller development of his policy, aris? ing from specific acts of administration, hoping that these may oe such aa all patrlotio citi? zens can freely support. t{Mri>n the New York World. ] The only respect in which this empty anc self-confident address is of any importance, it in the evidence it furnishes that Genera Grant doss not intend to have any serious differences with tho Republican party. Witt all ita self-assertion, tho inaugural ls reallj very servile. It endorses all the favorite meas urea and dogmas of the Republican party, ex capt the Tenure-of-offloe act; and on that th< parly is known to bo. about equally divided AU his independence is exhausted in the mer? empty proclamation of it ; he has not had thi real independence to differ from his party ix any particular. Aside from its tone of ill-be seeming self-confidence, General Grant's inau guralia a mero soho of tho tritest common planes of the Republican newspapers. Wi challenge his admirers to point out a singt ides whioh. he bas contributed to tho throad bare stock from whioh he drew the materials o bia address. te ExraKsrvK BOXASTAST.-There seems b bs ?diversity of opinion' about one of Oleo oates's breakfasts.

Within an area of a milo in diameter are some thirty mineral springs-no two of them alike. In rome of the waters, Chloride of Sodium predominates; In others, Iodine, Magnesia, Sulphur, Chalybeate, Ito. The beneficial effects of some of these waters, as medicinal agents, . are known throughout the civilized wo dd. Probably one hun? dred thousand persona visit these Springs annually. Many hundred thousand bottles of tbs water are transported and consumed in the various localities of the country. The SARATOGA "A" SPRING WATER is pro? bably th? moat effective mineral water found on either continent. It will bo observed that lt has ten per cont, greater mineral properties than the cele? brated Congress Spring; four times that of Baden Baden of Austria; Ave times that of Alx la Chap die In Prussia; twice that of Vichy in Francs; nearly three, times greater than the renowned Seltzer of Germany; and eanally over ibo Spas of Bath, Eng? land, and Klsaengen in Bavaria.

SHELL.-Tho office of the stomach is to convert the food into a cream-like semi-fluid, called CHYME. This is effected partly by tno action of a solvent, call? ed the gastric j nico, which exudes from the coiling of the stomach, and partly by a mechanical move? ment of that organ, which churns, as it wore, the dissolving ali ment. Tho CHYMB passes from the stomach into the duodenum, or entrance to the bo wein, where lt ts subj (ted to tho action of the bile, and the nutritious portion of it converted into a fluid called Chyle, which eventually becomes blood. Now, it is evident that if the great solvent, the gastric juice, ia not produced in sufficient quantity, or if the mechanical action of the stomach is not sufficiently brisk, the first process of digest ou will be bat imperfectly performed. It ls also clear that if the liver, which plays such an important part in changing the nourishing portion of tho CHYME into the material of the blood, is congested, or in any nn. natural condition, the second procesa will not be thomnghly accomolishel. Thc result of the two failures isdyspepsia, complicated with biliousness. Th? modo in which HOS TETTER'S BITTERS operate in Buch oreos is this: They t u vi gora te the cellular membrane of rho stomach, which evolves the gastric JIM HO, thereby insuring an ample suffi? ciency of th? fluid to. completely dissolve the food. They also ace upon the nerves of tho stmaaob., caus? ing an acceleration of tho mocha deal movement necessary to reduce tho food to a homogeneous m tss. They also act specifically upou the liver, strengthening it, and so enabling it to produce an ampio and regular supply of bilo, for tho purpose of converting the nutritious particles of tho Chyme ioto Chyle, and prom te tho passage through the bowels of the useless debris. In this way HOS TETTER'S BI i TE RS eura dys? pepsia aud liver complaint. The explanation is plain, simple, philosophical and trae.
