AN IMPOUTANT SCHOOL MEETING.
The County Board of Examiners
has issued a call for a meeting of
school trustees; and it is hoped
that all the trustees will attend. It
is notorious that many defects have
heretofore existed in the system of
free schools. These the State
superintendent is laboring earnest.
ly to remedy, and he requires the
co,uperation of the county school
officials. Entirely too much laxity
has heretofore prevailed, both in
the examination of teachers and the
conduct of the schools. The pres
ent State superintendent requires
the strictest conformity with the
provisions of the law. He has
issued orders that' no teacher's
certificate shall be granted without
previous examination ; and indi..
cates that the examination shall be
mostly a written one, on questions
prepared by himself and forwarded
to the County Boards. The object
of the proposed meeting is to have
a full and free conference among
the trustees, concerning the number
of schools to be opened, the salary
of teachers, the means of increasing
the efficiency of teachers, and of
popularizing the system of public
instruction. The State superin
tendent has promised to attend the
meeting, unless some unforeseen
contingency prevent; and he will
give some very useful and interest
ing information. Every one con
nected with schools should become
acquainted with him. It is sincere
ly hoped that all the trustees of
Fairfield, by attending the meeting,
will evince that zeal in behalf of
free schools which should charac
terize competent officials.
L. Cass CARPENT ER.-The trial of
L. Cass Carpent er for forgery be
gmn on Monday morning. The
State was represented by S.>icitor
Abney, of the fifth circuit, and the
defendant by Mr. R. B. Carpenter.
The jury consisted of six white and
six colored persons. In substance
the indictment charged Carpenter
with having altered a printing bill,
on the 20th day of January, 1872,
from $720 to $1720, and with having
procured its payment at the State
treasury in the fraudulently altered
form. The witnesses for the State
narrated very fully the circumstances
of the case, and their testimony clear
ly established the guilt of the accused
Carpenter testified, in his own be
half, that he had never altered or
changed a single figure or bill
whereby tihe State was defrauded of
a cent ; the custom was to ask the
treasurer how much he had, and to
make the bills to conform!; sometimes
from twelve to fifteen thousand dol
lars were due him, which could not
be paid ; $2,4G9 was due for sube
scriptions of members and clerks
and their -friends. Parker testifiedl
to having advanced Carpenter from
his private funds until the State
could pay. Experts and practical
printers were then examined. Thme
whole examination took a wide 1nold.
The evidence elosed on Monday
evening, and the argument began on
Tuesday morning. WVe are in
formed, by a gentleman who camne
up from Columbia on Tuesday af
ternoon, that Carpenter was found
guilty. On the annoneement of
the verdict he w6pt bitterly. Judge
Carpenter, his counsel, stated he
would not make a motion for a new
trial, buj would implore 'the mercy
of the court, for the sake
of the prisoner's wife. and
children. This is all well enough,
,perhaja. ButCass'Carpenter never
once thought or cared for the wives
and children of the white men of
South Carolina, wh-n, day Jfter day,
he was inciting tho nie-rooa . in
condiarism, violence and crimo. The
day of retribution, we rejoice, is
come at last. And the vile, cowardly
villain, the infamous and malignant
incendiary, L. CasS Carpontor, should
suffor the extreino ponafty of the
law.
