Senator Gary's Position in State
Polities.
Senator Gary. inl response to a
serenade tendered to him ii Charles
tonl one eveniig last week, made a
lengthy speech on the Issues of the
day and upon his record. Ilie had
nothing to say ilabout his Conltroversy

bad taste of proposing three chleers
for Wade 1llampton, Iin tle midst of

reviewed his past course in the

a lecemitly Ipl)blii;he( interview. 1Il

In his opinion it is needless to draw
the line onl Ohe const iiti ion. It is

lieves in imaking National Banks an

divided oi this question, and if we go
back to (lhe constitution, General
Gary's alternative of soft-mnoniey is
utterly opposed to 1te letter an)d spirit
of that inst rumtiient. IH uld imoniey was
the Democrat ic slogin t hat brought

Thrice have (te Dentoerats thrown

quite a relief. Still it would have
been much better for the State to pay
a 11f'audilent debt thaln to repuldiate alt

who wished to sweep off tle iladical

But. there are dliflerenet ways of secur

to establish socchti, initellect tul or
moral equaiility. Give (lie two racees
civil equality, and if the C'aucasiaun

down to (lie tult imate amnlysis, Senator

Senator Gariy speaks B very kind

samte timte tells how st renuouzsly he

ment was the crownhtlig featuire of the
*Democratic admiinistration, and it
wvill be so acknowleded1 by all ere
long. Opposition to this t wo-mill tax
* is iiot a card that will win wtith (lie
bone and( sliew of (the country.
We regret exceedingly to read Sena
- eo Gary's aspersions of the South
Carolina College, which ho stigmatIzes
as a burden on the poor z'.an for (lie
benefit of the rich. Senator' Gary
himself' was at stutdent of' that lnstitut
tin. If he was a poor boy lie himself
Is a praetleal refhtation of his argut
m ent ; if a rich one he should be prle
*eluded fromi dochtrinig himself to have
beeni an infringemnent on the pootr
*man's r'ights. how was this college
* burden on the poor? Thle property
of the State wvas assessed at five hun
dred milliona dollaris before the war,
aind was worth mtuch more. Of this
priniehly fortune. a pitiflil twenty or
thirty Itousand dollars, or even less,
was doled out of the treasur'y to the
college. We have not the data at
)and1, but ventutre to ray that the ap
propriatlin was even loss thanm this.
IRich inen's sons went there, butt they
paid their own way and( paid the way
of poor men's sons too. The State
had beneficiary echolatrships, a the
- Literary Societies maintained students
out of their finids, while by the
sounifdeence of priv ate individuals
other poort boysa were allowed an op
por-tuidty of aitting At the feet of the
