In another coiuiun will bo fount] *i\ article from Columbia sigtn tl "Democrat." Tho writer lias ovi dondtly misconceived tho article in THE APVEHTISKU to which i:;- re fers, and certainly lie did not rt .ul the editorial of '.he Xews and Cou rier carefully. Tn the first pince, tho object of bur article waa to sho w tho falsity of Senator LOGAN'S charge, that South Carolina favored n property qunliflcation fur voters. Lou AN based his charge on an article i:t editorial columns of the Xe irs and Courier, timi if that nrticlo btu! been the truo sentiment of tho peo ple of this State, we would most assuredly have concluded Hint the ;tiharge Mas weil made. While it ls true, as "Democrat" says, this nrticlo advocated thc apportion ment of representatives according to population and wealth, i; also went so far aa to favor property qualification for suffrage. Wo have no desire to sm tain thc charge of Senator LOWAN. It i? unjust and not sustained by facts. But we mus? say. If the article referred to bc tho trite criterion by which to determine the sentiment of this State, then Lot:AN bad strong grounds for charging Hint Routh Carolina desired n properly qualification. Tho Jury System. Tho English speaking people have come to look upon the Trial by Jury as tho greatest : ;t!'e-;;ttard 'gainst oppression ever instituted -the bulwark of liberty. At a line when tho crown hoads of in land wore despots, when tho cor uption of tho day reached ov< n he judicial ermine, thc righi to n trial by ono's peers was tho -ole champion of liberty. Because <-f its antiquity, wo look with rever ence upon this institution, and wc must confess it possesses advan tages which no system yet devised can equal. Bul to-day, when wc see the guilty offenders brought before the bar of justice and liber ated by their countrymen; when wo soe others branded with crime upon insufficient evidence; when, in the civil side of the Court WC see personal friendship sway tho minds of jurors, then lt is tho dis advantages of tin system arc made evident. While it is with shame wc acknowledge it, yet it is a foci that a non-resident plaintiff goe> into our Courts with but little as surance that his rights will bc pro tected? The laws of our State tire not unequal, yet when a negro i brought into Court for trial td' tho simplest offence, unie.-- Ito can prove beyond the merest stu picton that ho is innocent, ho will find himself condemned. These are facts, however unwel come they may be. So far as Trial by Jury in civil matters is con cerned, unless it bc in actions ol torts, ve unhesitatingly pronounce it a humbug. Wo behove a Circuit Judge far mort; capable of deciding ordinary questions that arise in civil actions than ti jury. Friendship. What a volume this word speaks! Some would fain believe it tm emp ty shadow-a dream that is only known in tho poet's imlglnation, ortho ingenuous romance of tho novelist. He who undervalues the worth of truo friendship and thinks it ; \|A chnrin that lulls to sleep. /..shade that follows w rath Ol' ftwno, And 'Uni vos the wretch to weep," has neva* formed r just conception Of life. Mon ts :t social bel hg, and no man lives to himself alone. Wo must rid ourselves of the false idea that in this busy world, no time is given for the cultivation of those tender tics and sacred relations Which are expressed in tho term friendship. Much that passes to day for friendship, Is counterfeit, and only tho intrigues of selfish minds; yet, in our own day and time, wo have illustrated occa sionally, the strength and worth of the gonulne article. When wc como to face the dari: side of life, when the rude hand of poverty is laid upon us, when disenso renders us incapable of earning tho nc ?aries of lifo and wc arc left to the cold charities of a hard, unyielding world, then it is that friend-hip shines forth In its truo character. A word of sympathy will (dieu drive away despair, lighten tho burden of afflictioit, ami bring comfort to tho drooping sphit w)mn all ciso has faded. up .?-????jw ini???HH-J-JMP' H' II I i~TT nrv-v-tvMV Terracing Farm Lands.
