THK flTADEL Tba, board of TiaUors of the Citadel Academy have made known their And$ * ; tajfH'"8chinnur cu.se." Cade? promoted to be Serjeant ' by 4ly\^|^erinu?ndc'nt Cul. Thomas. ? TMSfvifDOMf numo?r or cadets refuse-J to o.i f aim and preferred charges against him of conduct unbecoming a gentleman and officer. Upon these charges he has been tried by the board of visitors who find him (*not guilty.-' Yet in the very next sentence tb?*y say he is unfit to be an officer and reduce him to ranks : This is singularly like the verdict "not guilty, but don't do i? again." If Cadet Schirmer was not - guilty of the charges preferred against him then the reasons fur findiug him an unfit officer ought to hove been put in , the form of charges against him, and h-> given an opportunity to ri>fute th?m If the evidence upon the charges on 'which be was *riid w?k in*" ficient to convict lum we fail to s?*? how ho could be reduced t?? ranks Naturally enough Colonel Thorna* has resigned a* Superintendent. He could not well do less upon such finding. And the question in who shall suiceedhim. Rnmor was rife that Governor Thompson would resign to accept tbv position. But the Governor emphatically denies that ho entertain* any such idea. It is a difficult posMior- to fill. Something more is requisite ti fill it with benefit to thr Academy than the having "smelt powder." It requires experience in ti'ichinit, in administration of affair*. i? requires knowledge, learning And plnr*oti-r. flen'l M anigault h?H boen mentioned in iConiM'CtioT) with ike place. But we have no idea that he would resign his present office to accept it. In our opinion Colonel Onward is the right man to bo marie Superintendent. He has hud large experience aa Principal of the military school at Yorlmile, if) * fins scholar and is a gentleman of the purest character. He is in every way qualified lu command the respect and obedience of Aha Cadet, and is possessed of that sine qua non in the eyes of e-'rUin persons ne du -aiUBli gunpowder."

Oar contemporary from whoso columns the above article was taken is indued "slightly mistaken " It wis the tfasspwoSR snd not the Medium that jpiaiie the comment which tho Journal and Review calls a complaint. We assure oar friend that he is "slightly mistaken" if he thinks we don't road his |>ap?r. We do read it coiiaUntly.

If Aiken fotes the subscription, wo will then go to CharluRton with lier stipulation fulQlled. If Aiken does not vote the sub icription it will be a serious Idow. Unless CharleHton should prove willing to qualify her Htipulation, we will hnve to devise some other mode- of supplying the difSciency which she has made, or Hiul some othftr i<knitili?l n-twi i?i ni Itlnu I to take our first mortgage bonds upon the then axpect of our affairs. For it will be observed that the subscription voted along the line, limited an they are to payment upon a completed road, 'vtiile they are valuable accessions to the resources of the rail road as the work progresses. do not furnish the money to begin the work. The money from the mortgage bonds must build mil equip the road, and run a train through the iMtial township before a ilollar is due and can be demanded froni that township, and t>o on throughout the whole. ThU i* why we are waiting on Aiken. Leaving her out and striking the South Carolina Railroad at Montmorencie, is leaving out her subscription of #60,000.

Court of inquiry in the Schirmer eane tliej first investigated the charges whi<ch had been preferred against Cadet ^chirmer by Cadet Kioard, on b?htlf of some of the Cadets, and their decision on the charges was published yesterday. The bosrd, however, also inquired into the fitness of Cadet Schirmer to fill the office of Cadet sergeant, to which he bad been appointed some time ago. . After careful consideration uf the aubject h? following resolution waa adopted by the hoard : Rttolttd, That considering all the facts and -awk:i. ik. i cirvuumi iivxb uctcm^u, nunc iiiv vimru iin acqtiitu-d Cadet 8cbir.iter in the Court of inquiry of tlie charges affecting bin character as a gentleman, yet in ita judgment his originai ap|w>intment wan eip?dienl(in that these facta and circumstances had not exhibited in the Cadet qualifications enabling him to discharge tbi duties ??f an niter usefully to the Academy. Cadet Hchirmer's appointnieut at sergeant of the corp* is therefore hereby revoked. This, it is understood, is the final adjustment of the whole mater. There are aeventeen vacancies in the list of beneficiarr Cadets to be filed br ue*t October. The following are the eouutiea in which tbe vacancies occur: One vacancy ij acli of the Counties of Abbeville, Aiken, Anderson, Cheater, Colleton, Oreenrille, Georgetown, Kershaw, Newberry, Oconee, Pickens, Spartanburg, Hunter, Union and Williamsburg and two vacancies in Richland. Applicants for these positions must apply to Lieut. E. M. Weaver, commanding Citadel at Charleston, for proper blanks on which to make application, and then forward tho same to Ueu. Johnson Ha good, llarnwell S.C. The applicants, after the board has inquired into the facts alleged ou the blanks, will have permits issued to them to appear before ex mining ixiirun ? meir respective counties. The examinations will be held in September, and the beat qualified bo/a trill get the appointments. As Col. Thomas's resignation will take effect immediately Lieu*.. E. M. Weaver, senior officer presnnt at the Citadel, in acting as superintendent. The places on the academic board which hat been vacated by Col. Thomas, superintendent and professor of belles letters, and Gen. Kemper, professor of ehemistrr and pfcyaica, will be filled br the board of Visitors previous to the reopening of the Academy on Obtober 1st. Atkeu sud the Hailruad. As we bar* heretofore stated, a majority of the property owners in Aiken town*hip have signed the petition in favor of a Railrosd subscription. These petitions hsve not yet been preiteutcd to I lie county co>nniis-inner*, for the resson that many of the friends of the road have gone away to spend the summer, and it is thought bast to await t'?*ir return before holding the. election. This is the situation in Aiken aa we understand it, and we believe the subscription will be vot^d when the election takes place. Mr. snd Mrs; John P.
