Columbia, '’arch 18th.—State Super intendent of Education J K Swearin gen gave out a stalement ton Uht touching hi* vi-ws on the compulsory education qne-tlon. Mr. Swearingen said in part: ‘TVhile compulsory edu- ca ion i* neither needed nor desired in manv li-caiules. in others It I* eminent- li desirable School districts, county and Incorporated towns should be al lowed So decide the question for Itself. The pa*sage of a law allowin' each school unit to decide this question for itself will soon show whether the peo ple wish compulsory education.” -— PLANTING A FOREST. An interesting news item appeared in several papers recently. It wa* in effeet an announcement that President Hickman, of the Graniteyille, 8. C cotton mill would soon have the work of “sow ing a fore*t” started on two thou-and acres of land belonging to the mill. “Sowing” wa* used advised ly, for an expert landacape gardener, or forester stated tnnt the quickest growing tree* ftere our short-leaf pine, old field pines, and that sowing the seed, tne cones, would he better, more practi al. than attempting to transplant the young pkie.a. I he pine d »os not bear transplanting well. This Is a novel scheme of President Hickman Its a good one too. He »«y* the land will not produce much now, will se 1 for around ten dollars the, acre, but If covered with tree*, pines, in a few years it will be worth much more to the country It will not bring much in the way of returns to this generation hut will yield reve nue to future stockholders of the com- pa nv, he savs. President Hickman knows he will die soon or late He knows that Mws mill w ill run right, along without him He know s that ordinarily in a year’s time after his death it would be a rare tiling to have his name mentioned in coiiversatton, and never in print He doe* not allow these certain conditions to influence him at all. But then going hack to the first proposition and considering It In a ma terial way only, it’* a good thing, .some of our farmer* would better fol- fow hi- example, W« are cutting down everything in sight now a days and we will need timber and fuel later. Our abort leaf pine gruwe very rapid y and some of our waste land* could well be utilized by sowing to pities.— Greenwood Index. ONE REPUBLICAN RIGHT. Representative McCall, republican, to Harvard student*; !Ve haye been passing through a wild orgy of extravagance, in which very touch has been couttumad in hre work* and fustaln, and great burdens *d expense have been unnecessarily fastened open the country. Now, as * result of it all we are to hare tax ation of a sort such as the country has usually known only as a result ol war ami the people will have an opportu nity of paving the bills. - cGur national expenditure hM dou bled in a decade, and the expense of government during that period has in creased more than four time* as fast as the population. We have been a-ims tomed to point to the Wilson tariff act as standing for a great deficit in na tional floance. and yet the aggregate of deficits during the whole thirty 8ve month* of the life of that act was $105,000 000 a* compared with more than $140,000,000 of deftcleney during the last sixteen mwtith* of the admin Duration which has Just coded.’* Thf proceedings of the court since last week report are that suBiiaarlst-g ; To the Indictment charging High way Robbery, Larceny and asaanlt and battery with Intent to kill Quincy Bunyan pleaded guilty and was sen tenced to pav a One of $H0 or serve a year at hard labor.

(Springfield Union.) It is a well known fact that good di gestion depends on a favorable con dition of the mind and nerve* wbetr one’s dinner is eaten no less than on the quality of the dinner itself. The doctrine of good cheer at the table rest* not merely ou a moral or sentimental basis, but on one distinctly physiolog ical. Confusion in serving a meal, haste in eating it, the discussion of household tiouble* or business worries or the consuui. tion of the repast in sullen silence—any or all of these tend to produce the evil that engages the attention of school authorkie*. The atmosphere of the dinner I* determined largely by the adult member* of ihe family, but exiends inevitably to the children, w.ho frequently suffer in con sequence both in disposition and gen eral health. And the lack of the right atmosphere at the dinner table i* quite likely to lead to indifference in pre paring the meal, so that the result is the abominable state of things pre sented when a dinner is poorly cooked, badly served and eaten in a mood of peevish discontent. lii>to be feared that “wible enthusiasm” is indeed a lost art in too many home*. - e we —— ABOVE FOUR SCORE YEARS.

(Judge Story at Harvard, August 31, 1828.) One of (he most striking character istic* of our age, and that needed which has workeu deepest In all the changes of it* fortunes and pursuits, the general diffusion of knowledge.

ADVICE TO A YOUNG MAN, (From the Lexington Dispatch.) Remem'mr, my son, you have to work. Whether you handle a pick or pen, * wheelbarrow or a set of books, dig ditches or edit a paper, ring an auction hell or write funny things— you must work. If you will look around, you will see the men who are the moat able to live the rest of their days without work are the men who work the hardest. Don’t foar of killing yourself by oyerwork. It i* beyond your power to do that on the sunny side of thirty. They die sometimes, hut it’s because they quit work at ti p m. It’s the interval that kill*, uiv aon.
