The i! r aid printed illustrations, maps and statistics to show that there w< r< \ more negro than white citizens in the Charleston district, and the up i pointment. was a recognition of the , negro race alone, although most of of the negroes are hopelossly igno rant and cut no tigure i i busii ess or at tho polls.

Against Toy Pistols Anions the bills in trod uoed in the Senate Friday was one in which every small boy in the State ; is interested. Senator StnnhiuU, of Dorchester, is the author of the bill which aims to prevent th?> sale of toy pistols, caps and toV pistol cartridges. There is already | a law preventing the sale of tire j crackers 3 inches in length, and last year there was very little violation of the law. Cap pistols were used, however and a lar^e : number of deaths from- lockjaw j were reported from various sections of the State from injuries received from cap pistols and other toys supposed to ho harmless. The bill provides a heavy penalty for violation of the law. - ? Heywnrd Will TacKle the "Tigers." It ia said that the liquor situn ; tion down in Charleston is acute at this time, which in <111?? to tin? fact that Governor Hey ward is | determined to have the law en- j forced. Grievous wrongs will be righted, the friends of the governor declare, and if there ia no power by which the city court can convict, sflch jurisdiction will be given to other courts in the city. Charleston ia losing a revenue amounting to nearly $">(),000 annually from the operation of the -dispensary law. With the present method of doing business, the I dealers escape all licenses, and the illegal sales are so heavy that lit tie trade is left for the dispensaries which pay a port of their profits to the city treasury. "Post Check Currency," Cue of the measures now pending in Congress is that which ptovidea for what ih known as "Post Check Currency," which is intend td to furnish a practical and con veuient method "fcf sending small auuia ui money uy mail. 1 he I "post cheek currency" is in effect, u greenback in denominations from 25 cents to five dollars, which passes current like any other jI money until the holder writes in r. I space on the back the mime of a person to whom he wishes it sent by ii.ail, it then becomes payable i to the payee only, and on his en- ! doraemeiit is deposited in the bank and gets back to Washington I through the usual channels and is ! destroyed as "mutilated currency.'* ??? ?

In many enses the usual foviegn outlet for jjrodncts was, force, pegie^ted by the American I prodm-ons, who confined 11 ?->r of ! forts to eupplvinj* inaistmit doute?[ tic demands, while in < there 1 i | ei^n production v.m t I!oil upon to | reinforce dome-tic out pit, \vi i h the revolt ihaf new euro ntw nm! ;h?u 1 rtols w<?re created in out* foruipi trade 1*' x i ?it trade, Ihcofore, shrunk, while our mi *? >"ln espand ed to upprtvedeuted I'.* .

Oruhc'n Children. Too ninny people lmve mislaUcn ideas hWont an orphanage. Some seem to think it the name as the county poor house, but ri^ht thenis where they make u hi^ mistake. | For instance, one charitable-mind- ' <1 man will say, "I guess t might j us well send these brown peas to some orphanage, for I know I eannot sell them, and if I should be nble to sell them, 1 would not yet h decent price for them." Another says, "Let us cither send that old piano to the orphanage, or use it for kindling tires; it is no good J now, hut I know the little orphans will enjoy its tin pan music, and will never know but what it. is a i grand, melodious square'" Yet an i other says, "I always give my old 1 oBt. clothes t?> 11i?^ clem* little orphans, that is, what 1 do not give to my cook.'' Do not orphan children have intellect, refinement ami feeling-, as ; well as the most wealthy man or: woman? Does not the orphan linve an eye for,the beautiful, and ; a taste for the highest culture as well as anyone? Of course, wo dej not mean to j make heroes and heroines of all the orphans, nor are they all per feet by any means, but they are j I due more consideration than is sometimes given them. I The above examples are only some of the exceptions to the general rule of unselfish love toward God's children. There are many, ; many God-like men and women * who are really interested in the education -physical, mental and ; spiritual of the chilbren of their one King who is in lleaven, and may the loving Father of all re- \ ward thein justly and doubly. In J faot, we, ourselves, have so many . rich blessings, wo should not stop J to harp on the injustice and sol i ; fishness of the world, for that only | tends to make on? bitter and l scornful, but there is more than one earnest-mimiod Christian who! wishes some of the world was very much otherwise.

Its school system is carried on ns if it were some large college. French, Latin, Greek,German and Stenogrnpy are taught just as in college; nil'extensive library is at hand to be consulted by nny who dosire; there are the same bright, happy spirits, the same quarrel*!, the sau.o love affairs, the same loving hearts, and last, but not least, the same sweet religions ox- j ercises which draw their hearts, closer together in the realization of a gracious Fatiier in common. Let no one ever shun the orphan on account of its "living on charity," no some say, for when Christ j comes to make up his jewels, "the last shall be first, and the first shall be last." Mae E.
