Memphis Is taking: steps to.prevent a return of the yellow fever, and among other measures it Is more prob able that a sewer system, to cost not over $225,000, and to 1 be capable oi performing all tha necessary Bervice v will be agreed upon.' An impression is gaining ground that John Bherman told his own re port on the ely to the newepnpei similes In advance and pocketed the money. Mr. Sherman bus grown ilch ou small sahuits in the acrvico of the Government, and It is hardly possible that be would let a chance to pocket 1500 slip by. A movement to present a purse of $250,000 to Gen. Grunt is reported by the Cincinnati Commercial. It is add ed that it is to be the gift cf divers gentlemen in the Last, whjo, placing a high estimation on the public services of the General, wish to make Ula old age comfortable ami relievo him from the necassity of accepting a profession al post for n support. * A temperance crusade is about to bo vigorously Inaugurated in Havan- nah, and a strong effort will be made to render the "blue ribbon” n popular decoration. They have secured the aervlcee of Mr. John W. Drew, of Con cord, N. H., tike great temperance re form advocate, who is creating such a sensation in ^ilautn, and who is be lieved to bo second only to the famous John !>. Gough. A New York letter snys: “There is pretty correct talk here that the parties who made so much on the October ‘corner’ in cotton, (which corner ex tended from Vienna to New York.) are now short of Decembers and otlur months at the much lower figures then current, with the likelihood that t hey may lose nil they mxdo by the October movement. They sold other mouth* as a hedge against Octobers, and thoy find they cannot get them now except at a heavy loss. Some considerable rotton lias been already bought In against the short sales, but it is held that much yet remains to be covered.” to say something about our present sys tern of public schools, hut as wc have no system which, if substituted for the one now in use, or no suggestions ‘(to . offer which, if adopted, would improve it. »c have remained silent on tho subject. The whole .State is behind the age in the matter of education, aivd the coun ties id the middle and lower portion of the State aro almost without schools al together. Before the war South C&ro- lina had a larger number of Collegiate mstUttfioHs 'thtm- wnjrTtber Ivtatw rrr the* Union—liirgcr in proportion to her pop ulation anyway. From these institutions—the South Carolina college at Tolu mb ^Charles ton College and the Military College at Charleatciu, .Euitnaa-.UmTiuafiy^^^- tist), Wolford College (MotEodisj), Due West (Associate Reforin) T -St John (Episcopal), Ncwbei*»y (Luiheral)i, all of them lor males—hundreds of young men were graduated yearly; and per haps as many more of our y'Uing men were graduated from colleges witlioiid tho State. Tho above list of college supported almost entirely by home patronage will give some idea ol tho number of our citizens who enjoyed the advantages of a higher education, and without any statistics to guide us, we will heiitate the assertion, tliatiu no other section o* 1 tho Union, was the pro portion of thoroughly educated men so largo. When they entered upon active lives and. witnessed. the advantages which an education gave them, they were prepared to appreciate every effort of its friends to spread it and to aid in stimulating those of their neighbors, who, not having enjoyed alike advant. nges with themselves, required to ho stimulated before they would exert them selves, and to furnish mcaps for estab lishing schools of marked wo>-k in al- -uiust every nook and. -corner .oLeach. county in the State -■ jgjs I— i «— r hose in limited circunmilAnces to bear. school fund as far a* it will go, *pd then by-yohmtetr contributions from parents and friends keep the schools open for ten monthp in each year, Wc have made this article much longer tHan we intended, hilt will have mor^' to say on the subjeer next wcck. f Our object in writing was not to inform but to open the subject, hoping that it would elicit a discussion which would areuso our cltl- stens and end in stimulatjag them to a a’rong move—a steady move—and a Thov-b altogetlier Ta the deroctipn, of building up common schools. If they wtfi do this, next year vtiil witness a elementary school iu every district in this county*, VJ lio i» Hnyuowd ? The Bnmwett Faortir. Kerstrtw Gsiette, and Kinystree Star have indicated their prefcrcnce-foc, Gen. Johnson llaygood, for Governor. Tu* PiortB’i choice, ve sop. pose, arises from the fact Mr. Hajgood is a- native of Ihirnvyell, for we are somewhat at aloss to ihiugine what real, substantial chums our contemporary would sot up in behalf of its favorite. Why the Gazette and Star have come oat for MjvJlnygood for Gover nor when there nrc so nnyyr-other men in the Stale infinilely more worthy of the posi tion, we have aot beem informed, except ilmt he is a good and able ifian, which qual ities a h.^st of other South Carolinians pos sess and in a much greater degree than thf favorite of cwr centoarporarlea.^- ^ - . The above ja from tho Georgetown Times and CoU'et, ‘mid wc Lave copied it in order that put* friends may 1?e abio to tell its whpthcr it wc who have been drunk or crazy fo»' tlul fast two months or the Times and brother. If there is a man in BarnweJl Hon. George D. Tilltnnn, our rM<- representative from tills District, spent a few days In Columbia on his way to Washington, and freely express ed the opinion that Mt. Ttlden would be the next Democratic nominee for the Presidency, or that ho will name the man. He does not think the old man of Grammacy Park shelved by any meant? on account of tho recent New York election. He thinks Senator Dayard U a preposterous candidate, because he comes from such a llttl* Htnte, and beciiiise he Is too much of « Southern man to.oppo8c'’the bloody shirt issue. We are still belling, how ever, on Bayard and McDonald, and believe, in spite of the strong reasons urged by Mr. Tillman, that_it is the strongest possible nomination the Dem^rutie pat ty can make. . The New York Herald says a genu ioe sensation was created in that chy Monday by a rumor that there was .every r*ason tA believe that Mr. Clark-, eon N. Potter, Democrat, would re ceive the certificate of election to the offle of Lieutenant-Governor, and Mr. Hoskins, Republican, be left out in the cold. Tho facts appear to be that no certificate of election has ye: been awarded. Mr. Hoskins’s appa rent majority, Instead of being from 1,200 to 1,500, la la reality less than 300, whilst it is asserted that consider- vbly more than this number of votes intended for Mr, Pottec were returned ns being defective, some being cast for Clarkson M. Potter, nod others foi Clarkson N. Potter. The Board ct State Canvassers is Democratic, and consequently it is argued that any mere technical quibble will be decided I favor of Mr. Potter, who, If he gets the certificate, will at Bast Lave the better of the situation on the score of /fettstselon being Lino points of tbr law. Tha Board meets to-morron. While at that,time we had no system of »pubfic schools, the place was more than supplied by the private schools from which no boy or girl was ever excluded on account of the inability of tho parent to pay the tuition. If the taitiou was required to meet the demands of the school tho trus tees or teacher could draw from a State fund, raised and set opart for that pur pose a sum sfBcicnt to pay tha tuition of such iudogent scholar or scholars. But as wo al! know, when the war ended, al most every man lost his last cent. No war of modem times resulted so disaster ously totbe vanquished. In the strug gle for the means of sustaining life and of paying the heavy taxes, which our imported officials required to keep them up, our schools wore suffered to go down and tho interest in education, once so wide spread and deep, Innguishod and gradually died almost entirely out, and tho mass of ottr people seemed to feel that they had done their duty to their children when they had sent them to the three months public school. There has been a rnpiil growth of in terest in education, however, in the past two years in the upper counties of the State, and if we will stop depending en tirely on tho public schools as the means of educating our children, we will wit ness alike progress in the lower coun ties, The public school system of South 41 Carolina was not intended to benefit tbe people, and especially the whites, Had such been the case still it would have been a failure. For two reasons the system of public schools as they exist in the Northern States cannot succeed with us here—one is is found in the spares popula tion, tho other.tbe two races. At almost any point in the North, a section of three miles square contains a number of chil dren sufficient to make up an interest ing school, and the property is so valu able in that square, that a tax of one mill will be sufficient to run the school for ten months. Is this tho case iu the middle and lower portion of our own t^tatc ? Any man who knows anything about tho State can answer the question without a moment's reflection. Take a square of three miles almost anywhere, *aud wc will find about four children in the square, trb of whom will be white and two colored, which of ■» . ’ course will necessitate two schools, one white and one colored. But suppose but one school ii opened. In tho square of three miles there are 1,920 acres of laud which, 'aT'$B peFacre, will be worth $;),760. It will require a tax of ten per cent, on ail tbe land iu that square to pay a teacher even the small pittance of,$50 per month. Wc will uot enlarge bn this point, as it is familiir to every one, and one which is cutoff the power of any man or body of men to remedy. 7 | But arc we to give up schools because the public school system in this State ia a failure? There is no one, it makes no difference bow little interest he may feel in educational matters who would be williug to see our schools closed up. But owing to the fact that our territory is thinly settled and our people poor, it is impossible as a general thing to keep our public schools open for a longer tinic than three months in tho yearwith- out io'posing a school tax to« heavy fur I^eaUlatlre Proceedlaffa. We give below a synopeU of the proceeding* of the Legislature tn wntch our reader* are InUareetod. As the bill* are act«d upon and approved we will publish them : - The committee ou Ways and Means have agreed upon an appropriation 1 bill, the piiocipul Item* of which Are; ;£,xectitive aqd ,Judicial offleere’ sal aries, contingent expecses, etc., $104,- 594; expenses of collecting taxes, $’22.- 200; South Carolina University, $2100; penal and ohuritable institution*. $107- 200; health department, $5,500; Agri- eultuial College, $7,500; Catawba In dians, $800; Agricultural Society, $2,* 500; Fish Commission, $800; civil con- tin Kent, JlJBOOj claims (special) court. $3,19I; pubnc printing, $.554; Interest on consolidated bonds, $09,600; inter est on deficiency bonds, $35,000. The Ways and Meams Cotnraittee re ports in favor of a bill to reduce the pay of the A. and L General to $1,000 per year. By the same commIttee,report8 ad versely to the bell punch bill. The committee" e* af-rleultuf* ro commended tbe extension of the stock law to all counties (he delegates from whletf naked for it.-- , The bill to prevent th* carrying of concealed weapons elicited leugUthy debate and*much opposition outlie grounds that it was necessary to carry arms to protect life. i— A bill to prevent th* inter-marriage of races. - * Senate.—Mr. Bradley, by unanimous consent, introduced a concurrent reso lution which was immediately consid ered and adopted. Resolved by the Senate of South Carolina, the House - -of - Repreocotativoa concurring;— c , the Comptroller-General be and he is hereby requested and authorized to extend tho time for tho collection of taxes without tbe 15 per cent, penalty ia the various counties of the State county by tbo name of H n-^ good wc have not tbo honor oi las acquaintance, —wc certainly never in our sober lu$id mon cuU indicated our preference # for Gen. Johmon H-ay-good, Mr. II-a-y- good or uny other of tho H-a-i/.good family for Governor or fur anything else. On the contrary wc assert m*|t emphati- cally that he is uot our pre fore rice for •Governor—remember we are now Sober and in our right minds, 6r wc ihink we nrc, and if we ever did "indicate” any such preference wo are not responsible for it, and we take it all back. Whether there are other men in the State infinite ly more worthy than Jtkr. or General II-a-y good or not, wc can’t say, uot knowing the man, but we will go so far as to say that we believe that there are plenty of ineu who have done more to merit the elevation referred to -than he, for if lie, the aforesaid Mr. or General H-a-ygood ever ha* done anything to merit promotion, we have not heard ot it. And we again say that if we ever indicated a preference for him it was when we were non compos, for at all other times Gen. Johnson Ilagood— the soldier who Hiked his life on a score of hard fought fields ia tho service of his native State, the statesman to whose clarc, strong judgment and keen fore sight South Carolina is deeply -indebted for the freedom she now enjoys, the man who, whether as a public official or a private geutloman, lias yet to commit an act that will bring the slightest stain on tho name—is our choice for Governor. Not ours only,jior the Gazette’s, nor the Star’s, nor the score of other papers in the Stale who have come out for him for Governor, but he is the choice of the people of South Carolina, The Owtleok In WanhlnKton. [FhUadHplila Time*.] Wariiixgton, December 2.—It scorns reasonably safe to assume that the present session of Congress will not distract the country by financial tinker ing . It is ascertained that the Admin istration’s prnpoJtion to retire the green backs will meet with very general oppo sition from the Democrats and find little favor with the Republicans. In short, it may be regarded as a dead measure already, although it was invented as % party issue for 1880. It is quite prob able also that Price’s resolution, declar ing against any legis'ation ou the finani ciul question, will r , will pass tho Houso, and thus nssnre the country that its now prosperous business is not to be threat ened by Congressional folly. For so much the nation will be thankful. •About tho only thing developed here in Democratic circles is that Tildcn and Hendricks aro mutually against each other in 1880. Ti’dcn is authorita- lively quoted as calculating on Demo cratic success *cxt year without Indiana, as ho counts New York, New Jersey and Connecticut as secure if tBe party can cut loose from Western financial heresies. Hendricks, wh* is now here, is authoritatively quoted as peremptory declining -to-tiux on the ticket Tildcn, althouuh ho is not positive in declining to take the, second place with Seymour. In Republican circles there are no developments beyond a growing feeling that tbo Stalwarts mean to strangle Grant and Grantisin because of his conswvative attitude toward the South. The entire administration is in the most candid sympathy with anything to beat Grant in the nominating con vention, and there is now great confi dence felt among the Stalwart leaders th£t can be done. Meantime, the South is quiet and likely to be more quiet this session than in the past. What are called tbe tropical rhetorician of Con gress will be less fruitful of campaign battle cries for their enemies this ses sion than ever before. For so much the country may also be thankful.
