To those who have been staying iu
Beaufort for the past few weeks it seems
as though there could be no more healthy
locality on the face of the earth, and yet.
we hear of people away from here who1
try to give it a different character. We i
fear that with them the wish is father to |
the thought.
Even at Port Boyal the favorable sea- j
son is coui tnueting the natural (lis-j
advantages of the place and a gradual
decrease in the sickness is becoming j
apparent.
?
In case there should be ny attempt
made to revive business at Tort Royal
we hope that attention will be paid to
the Act of the General Assembly approved
February 23rd, 1875 making the
County Commissioners of Beaufort
County, Commissioners of Health and
Drainage. Their powers and duties aie
defined in a previous Act passed March
14th, 1874 and if necessary an amendment
should be carried to provide fur
the proper drainage of the Battery j
Point location, which will otherwise
continue to be liable to visitations of
fever like the present, and again cause
the sacrifice of valuable lives.
D. C. Wilson Esq. President of the
Port Royal Rail Road, and owner of the
saw mill in rear of the town of Beaufort,
had consigned to him the schooner J. J.
Spcnocr to load with lumber at Port
Royal or Beaufort. The captain refused
to take h;s vessel to Port Roval owing
v * w
to the prevalence of yellow fever there,
and after days of delay proceeded to the
mill where the vessel is being loaded.
The lumber after being discharged from
cars at Salt water bridge is rafted down
several miles to the mill to be loaded.
The additional cost of handling
lumber, delays and demurrage would
almost have paid the expense of laying
a track to Beaufort river where good
water aud free wharfage are offered.
Upon the appearance of some new
cases of yellow fever, Mr. G. S. Harrison
of Port Royal, as chairman of the relief
committee, telegraphed to the Medical
Society of Charleston in order to have
"?a ap imm nf their number sent to take
the place of physicians who had returned
to their homes, believing their services
no longer needed. A meeting of the
Medical Society was held at oocc nnd
after the proper deliberation the followrcsolution
was unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That the Medical Society of
South Carolina are not in condition at
present to send a physician to Port Royal
aud that the Secretary of the Society be
instructed to notify Mr. Harrison, Chair 1
man of the Port Royal Relief Committee i
of this fact. <
A certain class of people, the habitual
fault-finders, arc disposed to* berate the
medical gentlemen of the Society for <
, their action in this matter, but we think 1
it wholly unreasonable after the devotion !
that has already been shown by phvsi- <
eiang from Charleston an 1 other places 1
to accuse the profession of being deaf to i
the appeals of humanity. i
t
For the benefit of the citizens of the t
upper portion of the county whose spirit c
of enterprise has lead to the talk of a i
narrow guagc railroad from Lawtonville 1
to connect with the Port Royal Railroad, >
we would make mention of a roau of this t
sort just completed between Billcrica and i
Bedford in Massachusetts. The length \
of the road is about eight and a half t
miles and the gungcofthe track is only 1
24 inches. The ties are 44 feet long, i
4x0 inches square and the rails arc 30 ft c
long and weigh 25 pounds to the yard.
The locomotive has engine and tender
combined in one and cost 8 >,500 and
consumes but 5 JO pounds of coal a day. t
They use a combination car, which has J
two-third < of its space for passengers and v
the residue for baggage, mail and,'express s
matter, costing $1,800. Box and flat ( f
cars cost from $260 to $300. From thirty-- j c
five to forty miles an hour can be made j o
over this road and the whole expense ofj a
1 1 enroll in o,\m. i

The Republicans of France speak \ ...
i y
boldly their opinions in the Paris news- j \
papers about MacMahon's recent proela-1 v.
luation. 31. JiCmoinne in the Journal lu
Jot Dc/xrfs say.-: "After so much blood ' ^
and so uianv tears have been shed over j w
France over the whole world, after so . j(
many generations have died in anguish to t|

EDICAT10N.

The strikes of last summer teach the '
necessity ot universal education as never ]
before. An educated common sc .se i
would have saved the millions which
mad ignorance destroyed. We have J
nourished and brought up this hot head- ?
ed ignorance and it has rebebed against
us. We have sown the wind and reaped !
the whirl wind. Now it is very plain to |
be secu that this ignorance will he our
ruin unless we educate and enlighten, or
govern it.
A knowledge of what the laboring
man's rights arc, is the result of educa- j
tion. Because a man's hands are grimy
with toil, 4ocs not give us thereby a right
to reduce his wages. But if the employer i
is so ignorant as to violate the lights of j
tlio.se whom lie employs, the employed I
are not thereby justified in violating the j
rights of the employers. One wrong !
never makes another wrong right, nor
docs it make burdens iess easy to bear.
The work of the world must be done,
and only education can teach us how it j
may Le accomplished most efficiently, j
with the least waste and the greatest i
ease. A vast amount of unnecessary j
work is done. Education will show how '
it may be economized, how the burden of !
toil maybe lifted iroui the workers and j
the burden of loss from the capitalist, j
Education teaches that there is the least i
injustice on the ?de of law, even though |
its operation maybe very oppressive to us.
It also shows us that capital is not the
enemy but the friend of the working
man. Ilow can wages be paid unless j
there is money with which to pay them?
Unloose the tigers of destruction, nrd the
millions lost will surely come back upon i
the people in almost unbearable taxes. I
The rich may stand up under the burden. '
but, in the mean-while, what is to
become of t lie poor? It is
supreme folly to deploy the source
from whence bread comes,"and then complain
of starvation. Capital and labor j
ought to be fast friends; neither can j
prosper alone; they are partners in busi- j
ness and it is the worst possible policy for
partners to quarrel. It requires confidence
in both to make business profitable
and payment of wages certain.
The permanency of government rests
nn thn intpllicronce of the neonle. and
without this wc must inevitably be ruined.
Every lover of his land should
promote education. An enemy, vastly
more powerful than ever before is at
work, undermining the foundations of
the republic. This enemy is ignorance,'
thrust upon our shores from abroad and
nourished and imposed upon ?s at home.
In our nation ignorance should be a crime
for the first duty of the state is self preservation.
We are reduced to twoalterna
tives?death of ignorance?or death of j
ourselves. Which shall it be?

Tiie South Carolina Seats in Congress.?A
Washington telegram to the
Baltimore Sun says: "Three colored men
Messis Rainey, Sural Is and Cain, were
icclarcd elected members of the House of y
Representatives by the South Carolina
eturning board,, and Mr. Chamberlain
ssucd certificates of election to all of
hern. The scats of all three are contescd
by the Democratic candidates who
opposed them, Messrs Kichardsoii Tilluan
and O'Connor. These gentlemen
lave arrived with papers, which contain
statements from Governor Ilaiupton and
he secretary of State. Thtv Fau*
so doubt of their admission on the
ucrits of the cases, irrespective tf
hat all three of their competitors
lave been discovered as disgracefully
nixed up with the frauds and robberie f
the carpet-bag regime."

It i3 exceedingly unfortunate that the 0
Coast Survey will be obliged, for the want
of appropriations, to eall in ks surveying j ^
parties and suspend outside woik. There I
is no Government bureau, where scicnii- '
fie labors and knowledge are required, !
that has been* doing better and more ) '
practically serviceable work. The pro- i
duets of that work have met the most 1
unstinted praise abroad and at home, i
So far as they go they, are the best of,'
their class. But in the great portions of j
our domain where these accurate surveys [ 1
have scarcely been begun, the United 1
States are far behind cveo the most petty j!
European powers, in the matter of map- '
ping and defin ing local boundaries. 1
A bill has been introduced in Congress
by Senator Withers, of Virginia, for the
relief of owners and purchasers of lands
sold for direct taxes in the insurrectionary
States. It is, in its main features, a
copy of the bill introduced by him last '<
w?uter, amended so as to conform to the
terms of the measure as passed by the
House of Representatives and reported i
favorably by the Senate committee on
the Judiciary. The bill has also received
the approval of the department of justice.
It is designed to remove various clouds
from the < titles of many tracts of land
in the Southern States, especially in
South Carolina, where the sales for taxcs
were particularly numerous.
WASHINGTON LETTER. ,
[ Fr jin Our Special Correspondent]
Washington ]>. C. Oct. 20th. 1S7T.
The Capitol at present is a busy
place. Here beside the men looking after
the affairs of State, are many more
looking after positions, patriots of both
parties, who would consider themselves
and the country fortunate, could they
secure a position where their valuable
services could be utilized and who are
ready to state that the Govt, really must
appoint them in order to make the
Administration Policy a success.
As usual tlie vacancies arc few, and
there are ninety and nine disappointed
aspirants to one successful one. When
will American citizens learn that honest,
manly effort in some legitimate catling
will render them more return than a
position under "Uncle Sam," and yet
every winter hundreds , collect here to
spend their time and earnings, following
political phantoms, resplendent with
promises, hut full of disappointment.
The Speaker, Mr. Randall has had to
go to his home in Philadelphia because
he could have no leisure here to prepare
his committees. Meanwhile the House
has taken a rcces-, and the ommipie.s- !
ent lobbyist improves the shining hours. |
Though the Louisiana question has I eon
so long before the public, and the arguments
consist only in ringiug new change?
on the old topics, the interest continue.and
the Senate gal'eries Iwvo been well
filled, though doubtless a curiosity to
witness the predicted split in the Republican
parly has brought many. Yesterday
the Senate was occupied with rh ; Enstis ,
case; the scat Mr. Kustis claims has been
vacant since 1873, and in consequence ol ,
the troublous times which followed, the
famous committee headed by Reproscnta
tivc, now Vice President Wheeler wore
sent to New Orleans and seemed a settlemcnt.
The legislature of 187 J and '
1870. knowu as theAVhceler Compromise '
Legislature elected M/. East is. Mr. j
Morton before Piirchback's claim was <:
settled expreased himself satisfied that '
Mr. Eustis's claim would be a valid one ,
i' there were any vacancy. Mr. Thurman t
yesterday reminded the Scuate of this 1
and that Mr. P's claim was rejected,
leaving a vacancy. Mr. Edmunds con- tended
that as there was no vacancy a*
the time of Mr. E's election, P's case tint
being determined, it is now a matter o?
Law; after some further discussion it
was referred to the Committee. This i6
an especially imp.rtnut question now, lor "
as there arc 37 Republicans and 33 Pcm- a
ocrats, the addition of two Senators from s;
Louisiana and one from South Can/ina i:
it Judge Davis votes with the Democrats
would make a tic, or if Morton,should die j,
and a Democrat succeed him, and Davis if
rote ith the Republicans there would sl
still be a tie, as Judge 1). is considered h
