These figures athlcd to a total of voters show 19 4,400 persons incapable of writ ing their names in 1870—a littlo over one-fourth of our entire population. To carry this calculation a little further, suppose the avmge period of life in South Carolina tc Im* forty years. It necessarily follows that one fourth of the people of the State must be under ten years of oge, unless the population is de creasing.

Ear better to build school houses with the tnonov thus r * ~ squaudured—fill them with children, placed under the charge of efficient and well paid teachers—than to fill our jails, asylums, penitentiaries, and furnish vie tint after victim to the gallows. “Would you destroy intemperance, empty jnU, deplete penitentiaries--tlicn educate the people ? Would you destroy the moloch of rum shop nnd gunbliug house—then educate the people ?’’ Education, like every yood and use ful enterprise demands self-denial to in sure success. ftuuday Mcbool Ontemiiiil. I Report cl f->r Tho t’oofle.] Throuuhout the United States, and doubtlcfsiu England also, as well as in other Christian countries, this year, will be celebrated ns the centennial year of one of the- noblest and greatest works ever undertaken by man, the spiritual training of the young in Sunday Schools. One bundle 1 years ago, the pious and faithful Robert Rnikcs, of Gloucester, England, conceived tho idea of gathering the unfortunate waifs whom he saw up on the streets, on God’s holy day, descr- cniting the Sabbath, and spending its sacred hours ia vicious and criminal practices, into a school, where tic y might receive that instruction which would direct their minds into a differ ent channel and train therein for lives of uacfulua&s- This movement had pcrlmpi progress of the Bunday School .work. He then proceeded to show its influences and power, notdydy socMlIy as the grant moulder of t l^oUgfitantl moral sentiment, but as the elevator of human action in nil the business relationships of life. The speaker “did not believe in carrying politics ini) religion, but was a firm ad vocate of carrying religion jnto polities.” He* closed with an earnest appeal for nio*v thorough and faithful effort in this noble Work. • . .wr The Rev. Mr. McMillan slid that the lateness of the hour would preclude his doiag otherwise thnii briefly referring to oney»r two suggestive thoughts in con nection with tho subject. lie adverted to the so-called great works undertaken by human minds and executed' Ly-lm*. man efforts in the past history of the woTfiT.^ 1 Kingdonfs.^said tho speaker, “Lave been established only to decay.

But here iUa monument, eroctcd by every faithful Sunday School worker, which shall end urc throughout all time.

Eilitor The People : The following thoughts have oceufrcd to me by reading the hcws*bf the flay, and the presentments of several grand juries in our State, all bf which point to, au evil, and recommend what they, think will do away with much crime, but no one as yet has struck the key note fo permanent reform. I( is pro posed to increase the price oCiinnase to sell whisky, to do awoy with trequent pistol shooting, and this is about the amount of remedy which, our grand juries propose Orangeburg proposes to set the license at 81,200, Barnwell at 87?). Now one-half of the trade ofOr- anwriiurg will cross the river to Williston, Blackville. Grahams, Bam b.-rg and Midway, which towns would reap the benefit of a trade which other. wIm) would trade at homo. The truth is, that the. license system is a blot, upon civilitatiojii-, which cntinot be reconciled in any way with order and good govern ment. If there is evil in sclfing whisky • “troir can ^Tt(»TiW”T7W»Jn“Si*1re _ Tr right ? Would not a drunkard do as much mischief if be drank in a liesusc shop os in a no license shop ? Now,- there is this to. hope, that the grand Repty.^1) This question arises from confounding tho two terms canning and bottling. We have used these , . terms as meaning tlTe same thing, buv ITT? R £ un H in , t properly, canning should be applied .only to tho process of putting up fruit in tin cans. Our people first became acquainted with fruit preserved-at the factories iu cans, aud afterwards, when in domestio operations glass vessels were used for fruits, they were still called can bed fruits, though 4>ut up Iu bottb-a.—When a word gets Into common use, it is ver flcult to change it, though its.appli cation, as iu this case, may not be precisely accurate. In- factories,' the fruit is put into the cans, which have the covets sealed on ; tliase are then heated iu-p vat of water^F by steam, and Lhe-fruit cook< (I in the c iqh. A small hole is then punc-lmd, in tue tin —not so much to let out the steam a* to let out the air ; th's h.do i* then closed by a drop of Solder. When bottles are iHed the cane is entirely different ; the fsult Is first cooked, aad put |ict Into the bottles with its syrup. If the fruit Is filled in care fully, and the syrup fills all the spaces amoqg the fruit, nnd If the bottle Is wejl filled,TfTere is no rfianT'e for tlie air ami no steam to be let off. r ~—' r (2| We know of no treatise on the •ui'Ject, except an old French one. now useless.

The occa sion was befittingly celebrated at Black ville on Sunday, 27th ult. f'ndef tij e supervuion of W. II. Bellinger, Esq., the scholars of the Blackville and other Baptists Sunday Schools assembled at an early hour. The exerciaos were attended by so large a eoucourEe of parsons that it was needfulT*.place chain iu the aisles of the church for the aecerataodstlon of those who were unable to obtain scats. The programme was excellently arrang ed, cousutiug of respensee and reciu- tiom, and reflected credit not only on those who managed the order of c«er- riaes, but upon thescholara who acquit- ted themselves admirably. Addresses woro also delivered by Revs. J. G. NVll- liafais and W. T). McMillan. The former gave us * lursory view of the rUc aud the drinking sh >ps, or perhaps stop them altogether. Now, here is my proposi tion : Rcc.mimead that the Legislature pass a piohikit'wy law, furbidding the sale of intoxicating dtiuks in the State. The chrrge which might be brought against the'intelligence ani patriotism of our grand juries is that they arc un able or tiDwi.ling to undcrstaml the trat character oi tho danger with which we are threatened. The peril of aoeiety and the State at large, from the pre-'cucc ol druukenneae. and tho eauw-s which psoduec drunkeii’iosa, is not as it seems to me that ivdi viJuuis may mi (Ter, or families may be broken up, pcrsou.il suffering, however ncuU’, or an over throw however disastrous, can guage this this evil to society. The dauger is that the tr-ffle iu ardent spirits is at war with every legitimate business, aud fattens on ihs loss of a 1 other trades and pursuits, aud feeds with an omnipresent supply every evil temper of the human heart. This, iu my o|>iniun,. is the charge which can be brought against thi.s traffic and forms a platform broad cibmgh for all to stand upon and battle for human rights. If appetite, prejudice and iiTilution carid ho la d addc, aud the question put, stripped of all personal predilection to the businc's men of the country, whether a tpiffle at war with all other trades and brruchcs of ex change should exist, there can be no d"ubt iu any one’s mind whut the verdict would be. Where, I ask, as I remember the laws of cause and effect, is all this to end. Is it creditable that a govern ment resting solely on the ballot, c-tn long endure when virtue, iuHigencv aud morality arc gone? Whatever tends to lessen tho tone of public morals to debauch the mind, to comist the manners, aud lessen the sum total of its industry, is dangerous to -the State. These causes operating slowly, and often unnoticed are, none the less, causes producing evil aad only evil. The as sertion that no icprpseutative govern- ment can Jong population are addicted to' drunkenness, carries with its utterance the-force of a AlnniQUatiatiqu^ aLijji qn^duAna ia every I? ,r—t. -wj " rr r ■r—rr J AL VERTISEMKNT. j ~ i - j_.
