The centennial at Cowpens was quite a AMccess in point of attendance and in the speeches. Sonaor Hamp. ton weade one of the best efforts of his Mb, and Colonel Bigginson, of Massa. cbusetts, made a scholarly address. The-military parade was quite offeO. time, General Hunt especially compli. menting the Palmetto Regiment on their line, which he pronounced as line as he had ever seen. This is the greater compliment as the Regiment had never drilled together before. The monument was unveiled by a number of young ladies, relatives or descend. ants of Morgan and Piokens, among thorn Miss Hattie Brown of this plaqe. The jam was soietilng extraordinary, as ulay as fifteen thousand porsons being raporteA as present. Governor Jarvis, of North Carolina, was the only visiting Chief Magistrate. Chief Justice Christian, of Virginia, headed a committee from that State, and Senator Francis one from New Jer sey. The hotels were over-crowded and provisions were scarce.

The collapse of the deadlock has abated all interest in the contest be. tweeni the two parties, and the contest has boon entirely between the two wvings of the Republican party-. Gar field refuses to withdraw IRobertson, and Conkling is at white heat. In *a two hours' speech in executive session he is said to have charged the Presi' dent with being treacherous and mak lng promises and not fulfilling them. The Now York Herald denounces Garfield and Blaine as bitterly as it ever denounced John Kelly, and has two special Washington correspond ents, one of whom seriously charges Gar3eld1 with voluntarily bartering away all his omices during the cam paign for money to buy up Indiana, and systemnatically breaking every pledge afterward. His whole career for the past six months is characterized as teeming with fiischood and deceit. The other correspondent just as effect ually ridioules Garfild and his "chums," as lie calls a certai set of alleged private advisers. Garfield organs charge Conkling with writing the serious letter, but this is deemed by the correspondent, who makes the point, that Garfield's friends are try. ing to discover the writer instead of denying the charges. Notwithstanding the newspaper boom for Conkling, Garfield is said to be ahead, as only eight Repubiicami and a dozeni Diemcrats are expected~ to vote against Robertson. Stanley Matthews was cotufrrmed ai Associate Justice of the SuprenH Oourt by a majority of one vote ir a session in wichl there wer. only forty-three Senators presen out of .eventy-slx.

C., May 14.-I have long since returned to toy old home stoad from a sojourn of some seven months at Jalapa, Newberry county, at which villa I have been "teaching the foung idea how to shoot," and may give your readers a few more reminiscences of ye olden time, as I am too aged and feeble to labor much, and most be doing something, regard Ing an idle life worse than no life. I noticed In your journal questions to several farmers of our county for solution as to Its prosperity, and If not prosperous-the remedy. As I am on the eve of four score years 1i life, and was a plaiter for forty-fvo years, per mit mne as an old fogy, to drop a hint or two as to the remedy in the premi ses named. I think it can be contain ed in three words-labor, economy, ski. As to the first, we have nsot enough of white labor. If every able. bodied white man and boy, not ot-er wise useftilly employed, would labor on our tarms, or supervise when not needed to labor, our furms would no doubt be more remunerative, -by say ing the expense of much hired labor. Our farms would improve and enhance in value also. What sane man can de ny it? As to the second remedy economy-- Why, it is potent to every one, that we are the most extravagant and wasteful people on - earth. When I was a boy and even a young man, our people'did not expend one half not a tenth-of the money they do now, and I well know we lived as well esto the, comforts of life; and genetally 'U" hbetterttkap-in -the pres-. ent age. - efavagance and idle neus are t.two. greatest hindrances to prospeiyiour county and State. These are undeiaile and unansewer able' ts. c ieo-la;osu as rep will be certaini to grind Wq dust teTrr#er, by being compelled to pay from twenty-flye to fifty per uet. more for every article he pur. ~ees thiAn its ca*l 'ralue Even if l~borro'o money, he cannot afford to pay more thian seven-per cent. and re afle an income. As to skill In ihrm 1 we all know it isesential' to re miuierative crops, as well as to the Im proveinent of oMr *ferile lands, and this it only to be acquired by long ex perience and arduolts toll. Some can acquire it much sooner than others. But the old adage "Experience Is the best teacher," is a true onie. We should sow down a greater area of land. Besides, all our lands require a rest. One-third should 'be in fallow every third or fourth year. Planters say they cannot spare so' much. Bet ter do so than lose your' lands, which will inevitably le the case if tiie pres ent system be continued. Our late blighting frosts have left us a small erop of peaches, pears and plums, and I thiuk nearly a full one of apples, in this vicinage. We have a fine stand of cotton of the early plant ings, and it looks vigorous, a well as the youtng corn plant. But a limited area was sown down to wvheat, but it, as well as oats presents a f1avorable as pect at present. .Somne -planters are choppieg our -cottqn and a foW yet plantng. Gardens are looki~n well. OUR PUBLIC BOHOOLI. | Thoughts on the Defect. of the Presnt System, With their Possible iBemedy. NO. I. Mesars. Editors: I purpose noticing some of the evils growing out of' our system of public schools, and then poipting out some of the moans by which these evils may be remedied. While I am not ini favor of taxation for the general education of our chil dren, (i. e. for all elasses and condi tions promlsonously,) yet, living un der such laws, with the probability that they will remain In force for years to oome, it becomes us to make the best we can of them, by so dis bursing the educational tibd as to do the greatest amount of good, and thus secure the object designed by the ap. propriation. It la sometimes wiser to correct certain defects growing out of, or attendant upon, a new system, than to throw the whole concern away on account of theta. Robert Fulton in vited a number of persons to witness the sailing of his newv boat, propelled by steam, up the Hudson. The spec tators assembled, the hour came, the signal was given, but the boat did not f move I But the boat wais nt,' thrown away nor the inventor dilscouraged. liHe urged patience upon the specta - tors. Ils busy brain soon discovered - Its defects and in about half an hour a the proud boat moved off grandly a amidst the cheers and huzzas of those s who had just before thought only of a fi~lure. It would hardly be wise te , throw away a new carriage because one Iof the wh eels happens to be so ti gt as a Ito slide instead of turn, or to trow a away a set of nw harnes bec...a SO with ,ur po lo sehool system.i: Let us st least try to correct existing evils o nl r present Jaws rernu in O' Legislatrns, in the. propria, i.4IpIf,300W,00 for educ pIP certainly never, ta ldo aThdinit shoulid a 1a thai csary to be doite -br tb n of the childrhAn of our State, - e I~ 4bexle'h that body was It std Pas tos. that '.the ave r5of per- antima is sufR clent give to- the children of the State All the educatiop necessary.

One of the oldeqt aud beat scholare of our countv said- the writer not long since thai he did not see that "our educational position -iow is in advance of what it was fifty year. a." iThe outlook is certain enore oony.. Perhaps it would be difficult to co'ceive of a plan for the disbursement of the pub lie funds in which it would do as much harm and as little good as our present plan. But of the evils I shall speak In: my next article. This paper- is Only prefatory. 13, F. COLETa. MORAL NEW ENGLAND. Governor Perry Givon a Few Comparative FActo thaL ToU at Utory. The recent debate in -the Senate of the United States has been a terrible exposure of the boasted land of moral ideas and free suffrage. in Massa chusetts there are 130,000 adult males disfranchised on account of illiteracy, failure to pay taxes, paulerism and crimes!i There are, in prisons of Mas sachusette 4,650 convicts for every variety of crime-ndulerv 45 males anit 18 females; drunkenness 650 males and 241 females; idle and disorderly con, duct 76 males and 100 females; -larce nv 858 males and 76 females; robbery, 12 males and 2 females; vagrancv, 205 males and 5 females; arson, 95 males and 8 females; murde", 21 males and 3 females; rape 16; forgery 47 males; and some of every other crime known to the law. South Caiaolina has near enough the same population - as Connecticut for comparison, (the population of this State being whites 891,224, colored 604,275; nnd that of Connectient whites 610,884; colored 11,428,) and has.otily 1,413 males over twenty-one years who are not voters by law, while Connc'tieuttab 22,916 who arn not voters. And yet Northern Sena tors are talking about a fiee ballot and a fair count. In Rhode Island about one-half of the:adult males are dis franchiped on account of foreign birth, want of property, illiteracy and other causes. In all of the Sopthern. States thdr.e'are few adilts 'who are- -not - en titled to vote; whilst in all of the Northern States there from 20,000 to 189,000 in each State, disfranchised citizens over twenty-one 3ears old. Not one half of the voters in South Carolina would be allowed to vote in the Northern States.- #A'nd yet their Senators are traducin'- and abusing the Southpt'n Stateeoannot . having a free balloh.ndra fail-ediilita'they are stanedra~tboSou.th,.tp.o, on tieount of b64~s~e-ad ot~ages ;*commnitted here, whilsttheV have in their -own States three times as many ppiLtipal, as we have. -- There is another. ea utitful specimen of freeballot'iindalticountt in the Re. publican States, by means of gerry-. muandering their election districts.I the city of 1?hiladelphia-it is arranged so that it takes 76,000 Democrats to elect one member of Congress, and 94 000 Bepublicans ard" allowed to elect fouritimbers of Uongress. In the whole State of PennsylvanIa 407,428 Democrats ar' re'presented in Coni gress by~ eiglt members, and. 444,704 Republiceans are represented by tine teen members. In Connuecticut Demo cratic towns with a population of 30, 000 inhabitants elect two members of the Legislature and Republican towns with.a popoolation of 1,000 inhabitants elect also two meinbers of the Legis lature. This is all fair with the Re publicans, and is "a free ballot and a Nothing .can be more disgraceful in politics that the fraudulent and cor rupt bargain-mnade by the Republicans in the Senate with th'e renegade Demo crat Mahone. It is to be hoped that Senator Butler will prove to the American people this corrupt bargain, as he has pledged himself to do. .The Republican par'ty have professed to be horrified at the repudiation of public debts, anid fet they have sold out the offices of the United Ntates Segnate to a reptidiationist, a .1ebel ba:igadier and a renegade iocat,-to mlAkdirgin Ia reptidiate her ptiblic debt and . lect a Republican Senator, Will. the. peo ple of the Onited States tolerate .suchi barefaced corruption and fVd their Senators? And will they boutnue to support the Repitblican panty ? It is to be hoped not, by every hontest, re flecting mlan. And -it is - also to be hoped that "the deadlogk"' in. the Sen ate may continue till December, rath er than delivel' as a Sonitor' said "the stolen goods" bargained for~ by Ma holie. B. F. PERRY.
