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.

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

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

grandeur may be formed from the faet
thal some ol' lin: stones of the build

Caroline group, which was discovered
by Spain in I?20, has hitherto, even by
German geographers, been regarded as
a Spanish possession, although for

mintrrHM In Spartanburf.
( bnun tin' Carolina Spartan.)
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. Hut ho mut Squire Camp
! concluded to pay up tho amount claim
ed rather than have a squabble with
thc I'ostoffice Depart meut and perhaps
have their office closed. 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

the money, lt was charged up to bol
and taken out of her salary. This is
dishonest partisanship of the worst
type.

AN INTERESTING STORY.
Mi-s .Minnie Wallace resides with Mrs.
George Ficklin.I, II McAfee street, At
lanta, (Ja., ami from her own lips a Cunnii'
tullun reporter learned the following ap
palling story;
Several months n|<o silo became almost
totally blind and deaf, and could not laste
anything except salt, lier (?ones became
tho BCatof intense pain, her joints were
swollen ami painful, and eventually her
whole hedy mid limbs became covered with
splotches ami small sines, lin appetite
failed, and stie gradually hist tl. sii ami
strength, and had hut little uso of herself,
un her limbs and muscles were paralyzed.
Sile, as well US hi l' friends Ulai tlio.se with
whom she lived, despaired of her recovery.
Her sufferings, combined willi loss of hear
ing and taste, ami blindness, were truly
heartrending.
All treatment from physicians ami the
usc ni' medicines seemed powerless. Uer
disease was blinni poison ami rbeuiii.1tism.
As ?he now seemed well ami hearty the
reporter asked wlr.il wrought such a won
don ni chango,
"1 used a medicino recommended by a
friend," she replied, ' and before one bullio
hail been taken I began to SCO ami bear.
The second bottle relieved all rheumatic
{laius sml improved my Appetite. When I
iud completed the usc ot six bottles my
eyesight and hearing were fully restored,
sense of taste rei in uni, ali splotches disap
peared, sores all healed, ami Illy Strength
and flesh i.stored 1 now fuel ns well ns I
over (lid, and my. friends, ns woll as my
self, aro astounded."
.'VV'Imt was thc medicino?" asked tho re
porter
.'botanic Blood Maha B. IJ. II.-was the
great remedy that neted so powerfully oil
my disease and cured ino, I never expe
rienced any unpleasant Symptoms fruin its
Use, anti Its action is so quick that it sur
prises all."
The reporter tien SO ll gilt a physician
WllO knew the. case, whereupon be minded
us the. following lines:
"1 examined thc above COMO of blood
poison and rheumatism, before ami niter
being cared. Add certify to Clio fai ts ns
a'ni.e stated, ami must acknowledge (but
thc ll. I'. II. effected a most wonderful
cnn- in this well-known case.
