BAUNWIXI., August 21, l?St';J. 'l'a tin Htiitor vf thc t'vliiiithiii liegfoten Al itt> late session in Charleston tho I lonni of Visitors of the state Military Academy, with ll full attendance of its members, lout lu deal willi complicated and delicate mailors nlt'ccllng the wcl tare of tho Academy as well as in volvlng tho rights and feelings of indi* vldtials. Tliev acted upon the issues present eil, giving to tho public nt the lime in as brief terms as possible the results at which they had arrived; proposing also to themselves in due course to lay before tho Legislature, in their annual report, :t full statement ol'the tacts ami reasons upon which their action was based. This is the usual course ill obedience lo tho mandate of thc Act of Assembly establishing (ho military Behool, thal tho Hoard shall "in each and every year make a nunnie and lull report ot Ino condition and manage ment of said school io tho Governor, lo ho by Ililli laid before the Legisla ture." Another consideration inducing tho reticence of thc Hoard at tho limo of its action was ti sincere desire to avoid wounding the feelings of individuals .by giving unnecessary notoriety to what had been done in thc conscien tious discharge ol'painful duty. finally-Newspaper discussion con temporary willi Hie exercise of discip lino must, however temporately con ducted, injuriously allccl a military institution. A standing order ol' thc Academy forbids it to otllcors mid cadets while (hey sustain (hal relation; and should the Board voluntarily em bark on such a course and the discus sion by possibility involve these per sons, there would be pt'CSCIltcd thc ungenerous spectacle ol'its criticising in tito public prints those who by it were, forbidden to reply through thal channel. These considerations,in which I fully concurred, were conclusive lo thc Board, and determined thc position it tonk. Since tho adjournment of tho Hoard, communications have gone lo tito press t'rom individual-, atl'ectcd, Ol' from their friends, which, with tho meagre state ment olllclallv made by thc Hoard, have been made (he basis of widespread discussion. This discussion appears to mo to ho based in part upon a misapprehension of facts, and 1 know it to be without full knowledge in tho matter. The Chairman, while thc executive olllcer, is only one member in seven of the Hoard, and they are geutlciUOll ol'individual record and thc habit of individual assertion, lie must carry out it- policy as indicated to him until thc Hoard sitting as such itself changes lt. Thc body necessarily meets lo pass upon applications for the beneficiary vacancies in (ho Academy in about lillee weeks. |( will then be open to them lo decide whether lo retain their ! li rsl position, Ol', under present cir? I eumstaiiccs, lo ?jive to the public, in advance of their report lo tho Legisla ture, u full statement of tho facts and reasons which controlled its action in mattel's w hich have Leen sn goHcrtilly commented upon in thc press of thc State. Whatever conclusion is reach ed w ill bc dictated by thc interests of the Academy as they see it. I Lei mc add, in conclusion, that tho Hoard of Visitors, individually and collectively, fool thc gravity of the duty with which they have been ill? trusted in tho management of ono of (he child' educational institutions of the State: and I hey recognize, lo tho fullest extent, their responsibility to tho peuple ot' S? ) ii I li ('andina for the wis dom and fidel 11 y ol'thai management. In reporting lo tho Legislature they obey the law under w hich they aro ap pointed, and reporl lo Hie people through their representatives. They shrink from no crilism. If just, it mu-i redound to the beiiotlt ot thc Academy, which with them is above personal consideration ; if unjust, they have confidence in thc sobriety of second thought lo make reparation, ll !- liol lllC first time as sons of tho State that they have been called upon lo do their duty duly to her irrespec tive ol'consequences to themselves. JOHNSON IIAUOOD, ( lliuirman. .Gen. Walker Given Ut? Koftsonl for Hilt Keals; nnt lon. CHA ULKSTON, August 22, 1885. To thc Kif it ot' of Thc News mut Courier'. Tho resignation ol' tho un dersigned as a member of tho board of visitors S. C. M. A. having become know II, and having been mistakenly construed into n reflection on the hoard, I desire, in justice lo tho board und myself, to have my position tully understood, and (hcioforo ask your publication ol'this letter. I tendered my resignation becaaso Hie work ot the board has recently taken up ami would probably in ibo immediate future consume more of my lime than in previous years, and more iban I could give, consistently with my duly as president, of thc Charleston Manufacturing Company and other business engagements, i w as render ing a voluntary public duly,so when this interfered with business obligations, the business not so much of myself, bul important interests of others con lided to 1110, I Wsis necessarily forced to re linquish what I have always cherished as a most honorable public trust. I have since authorized the chairman of tho board, through whom I for warded my resignation, to withhold it for the present, with thc understand ing that I tun to be relieved of any duties Interfering with my business engagements. Inquiry of the chairman of the board reveals tho fact, which I might ns well stale, that no other member of the board has resigned, nor has he any reason to supposo that any ono con templates doing so. I heartily concur in thc recent iuds of the board of visitors, w hich arc thc present subjects ol public criticism. I assume my full responsibility for my share in (hose acts, nil being tiie unani mous notions of the hoard. 1 believe thom just, politic and who, in thc ill reel lino of the maintenance of diss cl pli HO timi good order in thc Acad emy, that, they will bo of ultimate beni lit to thc Academy and put it in far better condition for its high mid noble work ; and I have thc firmest conviction that if tho facts were known, thc public, including our pros ent critics and oven our onomios, would join mo cordially in this opinion.

Thc Caroline islands are a remarka ble group of eural format ion- in the Northern Fat Hie. They are, perhaps, of no great strati L-?<- Importance, sima! they lie on ibo load to nowhere in particular; bm, from the point nf view of tin- arehtcologist, llmv are interest ing in the extreme. Certain Duich navigators, who visited them nearly a generation ago, returned io Fat ropo with wonderful stories concerning tho gigantic ruins that had been discovered on some of the smaller islets at the eastern end ol' the archipelago, but it was not until 18811 that uti yt hi ii^ ap proaching io a systematic survey ol' the group was uuderiakeu. In I hat year her Majesty's -hip h'tpieyle touched at many ol' Hie ??hinds, and those ofilecrs who went ashore found thai the magnificence of the ro mulus had liol been oxnggemiod. Thc most imposing ruins are at Mctalauim Harbor, in Po un po, amt m Chabrol Ihlbor, in Ktisalc, andan idea of their grandeur may be formed from the faet thal some ol' lin: stones of the build ing- measure a? much a- thirty-five feet long by twenty feet broad mid tineen feel thick.

Several years ago when it was difficult to get a postmaster nt tim small olllees, the people about Camp ton secured thc appointment of Miss Lizzie Camp. Mr. Bray was In busi ness lhere and be took charge of thc office and attended to the business-. Squire Camp and Dr. Dean went on Miss Camp's bond. The reports wore made out regularly and Dr. Donn always attended to these to see if they were correct. In 1K79 Miss Camp was notified Hint, ber office was in arrears something over f(>?.\. This was a sur prise. Dr. Dean went over all the ! reports and veri lied them and ascer tained Hint tho ofllc? wa? owing the department only three dollars and a few cents.

A few days ngo Miss Camp wns notified flint there wns an amount placed to her credit, in tho Depart mont and that if sho could send on a statement of ber innnngc mont, the money would bo paid. Tho papers lind all neon kept and copies of tho reports forwarded nud pronounced satisfactory, nud Miss Camp was notified that ?ho would soon recoivo a check for the amount due. Tho ox plnnation of tho transaction is that Miss Camp wns nssessed $20 for olec tlon purposes, and not responding with the money, lt was charged up to bol and taken out of her salary.
