This was deter- h J'led in the homes and in "the hearts tl lne people. When men come to ii le same conclusion in regard to law- 'I ssness that men must, slop carrying w stols and loading themselves with a mi. and. above all, must stop tak- f human life-when public sentient demanded il. it would be stopmI.

The reliable gentleman 'oiii whom he had secured the statis- j cs noted that thciv must be some istake, because tht figures for U)< snowed a decrease in enrolment | mler 1 SiKS, ten years ago. The aver- j ue atitondanee of white children this , ear, he said, was only 1 S(?.'t. It ought j ? be four times as great. Seventy- j ve per cent of the children of New- j erry county were not in the public iiools. The amount paid the teachrs was ..f'Jd.OOO and the school term as seven months, the .average pay to lin lte?aeheis being' a|bout' $-1-2 per ' loirtli. The cash balance on hand i duue. 1!M>7. was .$10,000. The main 1 liing to which he wanted to direct tlent ion was thai in Newberry couny only one-fourth of the children of ehool age were in the public schools, 'nless this thing was remedied out ivili/ation would be defeated. Hi lid not believe that, education was 'verything. lie would ralh\>r have l true man and an honest man than r educated man without those lualities, but above all he would ather have sterling manhood and >ducation combined. When a people became ignorant thev were un;\lb|e to take care of themselves. Taxes were levied and leachfrs paid and the children ought to he in the schools. Reports were merely perfunctory, but he wanted the grand jury to meditnitv upon theso things. Judgo Gage then charged the grand jury in regard to the particular bills handed out by the solicitor.
