Thme withdrawal of the Peabody Fund from the schools in South Caro l ina has caused serious emubarrassmnact in certain quarters. The trustees In their wi'sdom, Instead of helping schools, are maintaining a tbw pupils ini the Normal school at Nashville and at H ampton, while whole schools fomeirly aided by them are inm troublhe. The Howard school, in Columbia, with seven hundred colored pupils1, Is complled to close after tour months unless the citizens support it by pri vato I\amds. While we hope aid will bo given cheerndlly by the people of Columbia to this institution, we c'annmot but think that six hundred dol lam's coul be much bet ter invested in this school than in sending a do0zen colored pupils to Hlampton, Virginia, to learni how to teach. While new mneth*ods are needed, it is nevertheless true that good schools will always se eureogood teachers, and It is muich better to equip a school and then trust to securing a competent instructor thani to spend all the money on one teachdrw wIth no special assurance that lhe will get a tirst class school, or be - competent to teheh one when lhe l(eaves the Normal schmool. There are thirty county towns exclusive of' Charleston, Columbia and Gireenvihle, and It is ~j;V; needless to say that a teacher of' ac knowledged ability can be ibund to Pedeover agraled - colin each town, Three thousand, dollars oftthe'Peabody Fund, in .tho fbrmn of ten premiums of tigeo hundved dol. 1' eac fr the b'ost schools, would grat aspir'it ofe einlitio and rival. wybtween the towns tlmt- would do upc nQro to hutprotw tho' standard school. What South Carolina needs is money, not tealters. Leaving out other Institut:ons, wo vont,nrue f1'eely to say that the theory of practico antd teaching can be learned as thoroughly In the schools of Charlestoo as in simi Jar schools in the North, while the only way to turn to practical advant age money set apart for teachers, is to open a Normal school in this State. A Normal selool in Columbia would he tomect.hling pranctical, because it might. educate teachers by the 11ilies or hun. dreds. But to spend the mnoney in sending a dozen or so pupils to' i Normal school in another State is a waste of money. It will take two years to graduato at pupil in tho Nash ville Normal school, and then he will not have tho experience or abilit.y of tutube's of teachers who have been plrotmiletlt in the pro'8fSion for years. Or, to put these tlfleent graduates, assuming that they are experts, to teaching country schools at thirty dol lars a month For three monlths in the year, would be another instniiee of yoking l'egasus to the plow. Since the Peabody trulstees are determined to devote the fund to the preparation of teachers, Ihero should at least be a Normal school in the State, or, until that. is totlcled, the tlonov should he applied to the establishlot ot' teach ers' Institutes or training schools in the dilli'rent cuttntis firl at hiast, a month during the suttmer. Winnsboru took the bull by the horns and 1evi'ed a local tix, so that. tIhe withdrawal of the Peabody Kund did not cripple her schools, although to sontme extent dimlilshing the futid. But in ot-he' loclaliit's this withd awal has dlone more harm to the system than can possibly be counteracted by the establishlent" of i few scholarships in Nashville and lampton, Virginia. At present, we are sdrrv to say, the l'eabody Fund is not doing South Carolina much good. It is true that Dr. Sears, in behalf of the trustees, Very generously otlfered substantia' laid to a Normal school in this State. But his ofier has not, been acted upon. The fault. rests somewhere. In the meautitne we trust the Hloward school will get some money to contiuio its session. 8L.tIXT OolAiI). The Large in th World- H istory nasi 1)o ec'ri,tion of (ho Work-A Magnlficent Un tirtaklug.

In 1874 It is on record that 66,000 tourIsts availed thiemselves of this mecans of reachinag the land of the olive and vine, while but 28,000 crossed the Sipion and Spiugeni pas ses. The v'ast mass of rook and ice, towerinug to a hieight of 10,600 feet, which bears the name of St. Gothard, is situated in a cenltral and commnand lug position. It may be said to con stitute the heart of the Alps.

VONT CUNIS AND ST. (IOTHIARD. For several years .the Victor Em. manuel Rtailway, .by means of the Mont C6nts excavation, has placed Italy and $ranee in direct otnment. oatitng That gteat work .oztpncde be' twoon a nointnaac anna ' -rno F'riJu about eightoon miles west of the actual Mont CGnis, and is ahnost eightj a miles in lenigi h.

'he work was rapidly ilished, and is ( now In full oplerattion. The p)relimi- t nary esl inate of the cost was ?2,600,- 1 000. II, is believed (hlt the actual ex penditure was ?3,000,000, which was equivalent to ?224 for every lineal t yard of its Surface. The St. Gothard I unnel, which is now so nearly aip- e plroahing Coinipletion, was desiginied to c effoet a connection bet ween the Swiss systet of railroads ani (hose of Upper Itatly.

A :reat curve will, how ever, be lbrmied at. (lie soul Ii mnd. This c laid will be nearly 476 feet long and will be a portion ofa curve, wvith a radius of 98-1 feet, which will lead fromt (1he station at Airolo to the monuth ' of the bting. The entire distancee fromt Goeschenen to Ai1rol0 is 19,335 fret, or nearly ten iniles, and the lengtht of the tunnel will be 16,295 yards, or about nine and oe-foturth miles. For facility ot' conrtruction,I however, the tuirel was cut straight from end to en d, involving an addition. at labor" oI'ex a:., t'nig abt. ut '541 feet. at the Italian extremity. Airolo station is about 1,252 yards above the p1ltte of the sea, and Goeschenen 1,103, making a ditlerencebJet.weet the levels of the I two places of 344 ytrds. The railroad will be constructed to rise from both to a sulutlnit, level within the tuinnel of aliout 1,260 . ards above the sea. This level will be situated alost midwav between (lie stations and will be 9,5'O I C'et in length. This plan will make the northern gradient about one toot. in 171, the southerni 1 in 1000, and the t 1tturp ose of the elevation is to secure at uulllow of all moisture that may make Its way into the tunnel. t HiSTOnY oTH T Ii 1 woli. .et ween the years 18 I0 and 1850 the c project of co nstructiig a railroad t thriough the St. Gothard was first I mooted, but it. did not take permanent I form until the next decade, when the t, ( entral Swiss Railroad Company as- t sned charge ot' it.

In 1869 Germany, Switzer'- e iland anid Ital" entered into a treaty Volw d the coustruct ion of the road, and, in c' 1872, a coipany was fom'tued and bids t' for the work were called for.
