THE PENSION LAW INJUST.
The pension law as passed by the
last legislature, is entirely too unjust
and too discYiminating in its nature
to give satisfaction. Furthermore, it
was rushed through with such a haste
and a thorough disregard of its re
sults, as should characterize none but
the careless and headstrong. It is a
law, to say the least of it, that adds
little honor to the State of South Car
olina.
We believe in a pension law, and
wish'the State was rich enough to
give every man who served in the war
(and there were few old enough who
did not) a liberal pension, but the law
as it now stands savors too much of
supporting mendicancy. We could
cite a number of cases of honest hard
working men, who lost a limb in the
war, but who, nothing daunted, return
ed home and by hard and persistent
labor have accumulated some little
property. They had too much man
hood to sit down idly and pose on a
lost limb. They have acquired five
hundred or a thousand dollars, or pos
sibly even more, and they are yet
working hard and constantly to sup
port themselves and family. On the
other hand, we know lazy, idle, shift
less men, and some of them immoral
in their character, who are unwilling
to work, but loaf around the country;
who have accumulated no property,'
but go in debt whenever they can,
and never pay a debt if they can avoid
it; who are unworthy the confidence
and esteem of their fellow men. Ac
-cording to the law, the first class, who
are really deserving of assistance, be
cause they are willing to help them
selves, must go without one cent of
aid; while this second .class, the lazy,
good-for-nothing fellows, are the ones
to receive assistance. We do not be
lieve it is right. If the pension is to
be given, give to all alike; or else re
strict to the few, very few, in each
county, who are really unable to earn
a support, and who ought to be assist
ed, if not by the State, then by their
neighbors. There are men, wounded
Confederate, soldiers, who, we care
not what sentimental gush may be
uttered in their favor, are unworthy
the support and sympathy of the
commnnity. Because not a few are
poor and do not support themselves
is not because they served in the war
and lost a limb, but because they are
too intolerably lazy and worthless to
work. They would never have been
of any account, even if they had nev
erheard of a war.
The bill was rushed through in a
great hurry, and $50,000 appropriated
or paying theso pensions, but by the
way the applications are pournng in,
this amount will not be suflicient to
pay one-fourth of those who would
be entitled to receive its benefits.
There will probably be a hundred
clamants from this county alone.
The Pension Commission see the dan
ger ahead, and have issued instruc
tions that no more applications are to
be sent to them for the present. Bot
the law is passed, and what is to be
done about it ? The Commission will
have to do some close thinking and
inancenvenng.
The February number of the
.Ecectic is on our table replete with
ejellent articles on a variety of
subjects. The spirit of Darwin's
work and life is presented with
graphic force. It will be read with
irstby those who are followers of
t evolution doctrine. The Eelectic
is published by E. R. Pelton, 25
- Bond Street, New York. Terms $5
per year; single numbers, 45 cents;
trial subscription for 3 months, $1.
Jef ID. Lawrence, of Sumter
county, James Tozier, of Sumter, As
bury H. Perkins chairman board of
County Commissioners of Lar'caster
county, and one Dr. Prior of Union
county, have each recently been
gaining considerable notoriety by at
tempting to buy counterfeit money to
pass off on their neighbors. The
New York police, however, caught
-up with each of them, and stopped
their little game. We had intended
giving particulars last week, but oth
-er matter of more importance crowd
ed it out last week and this. We
will publish it next week.
The saw mill of Mr. John T. Bryan,
at Cleveland on the Georgetown and
-Lane's Railroad, was burned on Jan
u ary 29. Loss $800: no insurance.
William and Vincent- Fulinore both
colored are in jail at Kingstree charg
ed with the burning.
The six children of Lester Single
lary, a colored man, living on Mrs.
Margaret Lee's plantation, in Claren
don County, near the Williamsburg
line,were burned to death on the
night of the 26th nit. Singletary and
his wife locked the children in their
house and went to church. During
their absence the house was burned
to the ground and the children
perished in the flames. Their ages
ranged from thirteen years to sixteen
months. The next day the negroes
gathered all the bones that remained
- and buried them in one grave.
It a lbe remembered that the old
bell in the Episcopal Church, in Sum
ter was taken down to make cannon
for the Confederate Army. Last week
Capt. T. B. Johnston, who fought
against us as a Union .soldier, sent
his check for $50 to aid in buying a
new bell to supply its place. Truly
the bitterness of war is passing away,
and Capt. Johmston's gift is duly ap

:o:
The course of instruction embracing ten years, is desig ed to furnish a lib
eral education suited to the ordinary vocations of life, cr to fit students for
the Freshman, Sophomore, or Junior class of colleges.
PLAN OF INSTRUCTION.
The most approved test boons are used. The blackl oard is deemed as
essential in the class room. The neani;9 of an author is invariably required
of each pupil. In all work done, in whatever departmert, and whatever th
extent of ground covered, our motto shall always be Thoroughness. T
this end, we shall requite that every lesson he karnd, if not iu time fog th
.lass recitation, then elsewhere. No red progress can be made so long a
the pupil is allowed to go on from day to day reciting onl half-perfect lesson

LE DESIRE ESPECIALLY TO URGE UPON PARENTS AND
E Guardians the great importance of having their children at school
promptly the first day. The student who enters late labors under serious
lisadvantages, and seldom takes that standlin his class that otherwise he
would have taken.
The Principal feels much encouraged at the hearty support given the
school heretofore, and promises renewed efforts to make the school what it
should be-FIRST CLASS in every respect.
