NATIONAL AID TO EDUCATION.

in vbi«U tko poverty »Bd •elfish
uess of its various communities
in regai d to educational matters,
could be overcome uutil resort was
bad to national aid tor education
as a suppleiueut to local eflort. In
the ) ear 1884 ao less than 130,000,
000 was takeu out of the Freneti
treasury tor the puriiose of national
education, while during the same
year the Italian government, one of
the very poorest in Europe, expend
ed 10,000,000 in the same cause.
Statistics show further that the
same liberal spirit is adopted by all
the leading nationalities of ibe
world, and a learned American au
thor in oomtnenting upon this fact
•ays: M If these coautriea continue
to advance as rapidly for the next
ten years as during the last decade,
and we move as slowly, we ahull en
joy the sweu viable distinction of bo
ing the most ignorant of the great
dvilixeti nations. May Ood avert
the day I”
Fully twenty five per cent, of the
population of this country ia classed
as illiterate. Just think of it I If
this illiteracy were equally distribu
ted throughout the Union it might
he*vercome,for the influence which
three educated persons in a com
munity would gradually » exert
over the fouitb who Is illiterate
would be gradually felt; but the
trouble is that this monster of illit
eracy Is to • very large extent
eoooentrated in the South—so much
lathis the esse that it is useless to
hope that the small leaven of educa
tion will have any appreciable effect
upon the whole lump of evil.
Much if the opposition which
the South has to the Blair Bill is
das to the feeling against anything
which aavers of national control
of Stats affairs. If anyone who
teals this way would take the trou-
ble to read the text of the Bill
which is now before Congress he
would Immediately perceive his
error. The United States goveru-
meut does not propose to interfere
ia any way with the mouey appro
priatsd after it has been turned
over to the various States. The
aaly provision is that, in that event
that a Stats shall in any year dis
tribate this fanu contrary to the
law, the new appropriation lor the
followtag year is te he withheld
llrom the State so offending. Is
then any ground for fearing Fed
oral interference when the t.rw is
like thief
Wo have do idea that the Blair
Bill will pass Congress; there are
too maay selfish interests pulling
against it, and It will, in all proba
bility he smotheiedin the House
Oommittse before which fair mind-
ad body it bow lies for considers
tloa; bat if it should have the good
fcrtaae to escape the snares and
pitfiails which its enemies have dug
§0t It, and should finally become a
law, it will prove the best law for
the Sooth which has been passed

Ha rd on the Pension Robbers
On the 29th ult., Senator Vest,
of Missouri, made a fine speech in
Congress in opposition to tbs Bill
to Pension Union soldiers which
was pending. Among other pithy
remarks, he said:
lu (his city is a corps of men en
gaged in inventing legislation to
t ike more money out ot the Feder
al treasury. The teport of the com
missioner of pensions shows that
when ihe Arrears-of Pensions Act
of 1879 was passed there were some
30,000 applications for pensions
p nding. The very next year the
number of' applications jumped to
110,000. Claim agents invented
that law and pat a limitation on it,
and the number of applications for
Iiensious jumped in one year from
30,000 to 110,000 amPthe emount of
disbursements from thirty millions
to fifty-seven millions.
Senator Ve.<t went on to say that
of t he 2,300,000 men e irolh-d as
soldiers during the font years of
the w»r th ro were applioatioi s
from 1,200,000 for pen-dons on ac
count of disability. Such military
execution has never been known in
the history of the whole world
The Contetlerates had thought tiiat
they bad bad powder ami ordnance
st< res, and yet, making due allow
ance for the effect of climate in
prodneing disability, it would ap
pear that one Confederate soldier,
halt clothed and half fed, had disa
bled three ot his adversaries. There
had been no such destruction in
military annals since the Children
of Israel marched through the
wildernessdestroyiug whole nations
in a single day.
The marksmanship of the Per
sian Prince in the Arabian Nights,
whose arrows crossed mountains
and rivers and despised space in
their light, bad been noihiug to
that of the Confederal soldier. His
bullet must have hit two or more
at the same time and struck where
it was not aimed. Fifty per cent,
of all the host of the Union army
were applicants for pensions en ac
count of disabilities. Who, be ask
ed, believed th it they were honest
Applicants f Who believed that
these pension bills hail not degen
erated into a political abuse which
cried alond in the faces of all hon
est men for redress f
had a great regard for manv
of his friends on the opposite side
of the chamber, and in the words
which he had spoken be had wish
ed to give an opportunity to some
one of them who hod lurked back
in the contest over the bill to throw
his shining lance atnoung “the Con
federate brigadiers," and try to car
ry off the Republican nomination
for the Presidency. Th^ recent
dispatch from Paris hail caused
Presidential candidates to become
as thick < ‘as leaves in Valutuhrosa.’’
Before that dispatch bail come un
der the yeasty waves of the ocean,
the Republican party had been in
the condition of a man, who having
gone home some hours before his
usual time in the morning and hav
ing been asked why he had gone
home so soon, replied that every
other place in the town was shut
np. The doors of the Republican
party were now open and Presiden
tial candidates were coming to the
front without limit astoqiiMitityor
locality. The Senate had been en
gaged for some (‘ays past in a po
litical auction for the soldier vote.

A Case in Point-
[Editorial in the Newt and Courier.]
The letter of Mr. D. K. Norris,
the president of the Farmer-’ As.
sociatlon of Somh Carolina, covers
a great deal of ground, and at one
point, at least, seems to cover rath
er too much for his pu’-pose. Mr.
Norris commits himself in eflect to
the claim that, inasmuch as Con
gress has given certain sums of
money for the encouragement of
agriculture in this State, and be-
cuaee the farmers pay a tax on fer
tilizers, they have thn right, ami
they alone, to determine how the
amount thus obtained should lie
expended, and for what specific
purimses.
This claim will not bear a close
and fair examination. The safest
way to test its merits, perhaps, is
by applying the same rale to other
matters with which the public are
more familiar, and which have not
been complicated by much discus
sion. The State, for example, le-
vise a tax of two mills every year
for school purposes and the poll tax
is applied also to the support ottlie
schools. ' if • be Blair bill (dull be
come a law, moreover, the General
Government will contribute a large
som annually for the encourage
t of Education in the State.
On the principle contended for by
Mr. Norris, the whole of thee*' funds
sbonld be controlled and disbursed
is appropriated. In like manner
the railway companies, which are
mkt-d as sucii, and the telegraph
companies us we I, might claim tha*
they too shot id dispxs* < f so much
of thr general tax tuu i as they con
tribute.
Pu-ht-d lO its final and logical
conclusion, the plan of Mi. Norris
would cut off the taxes altogether,
aa e.tih ui«u would ci.dut the right
to dispo-e of a. msch of the tax
land as he hnn»slf conti ibu’ed, and
his first and most natural uae of
that pi ivilegn would be to decline
to pay iiuy lurtker tax at ail.
Sale of Celebrated Thoroughbreds.
The thoroughbred sales iu Lex
ington, Ky, which begin on Ma> 2
with the sale ot the Fair-view, yeat-
lings promise to be the largest and
mo.-t important ever known in this
country. Over 1,000 thorough
breds are booke t to be stdd, and
Lexington hoiseman count upon
nearly 81,QUO,000 as the aggregate
of these sales. The Ruuuymede
•ale promises to lie the mo-t seura-
tioniU one of tne lot, as there are
brothers to Hanover, Blur V. ing
and Hinds, and full sisters to Oatal-
pa, Wanda, Hindoo Rost', Miss
Woodfoid, Builston, and Modesty
in the 20 to be disposed of. The
fuil brother to Hanover is an espe
cially fine looking youngster, and
Kentuckians count on bis bringing
close to 810,000. There arc also
half sisters to both Racelaud and
Sir Dixon in the lot, and the sensa
tional caret'rs of the two colt* will
make the fillie-t, both of w Inch are
sired by Hindoo, bring a good still
price. Thu youngsters will be sold
on May 5, on which day the Gold-
stream yearlings will also be sold.
Woodburn yeai lings will be sold on
May 3: those bred at Eimeudorf on
May 4; the Dixiaua, McGrutLiana,
and Lake View yearlings on May
7 : Kingston, Iroquois, and Fleet-
wood yearlings on May 8; the
Meadow thorpe and Fdgewaier
youngsters on May 9, end the
Leonatus yearlings on May 10.
The River Gives Up Its Dead-
The bj>dy of Isaac Nettles, the
convict who was drowned iu Broad
River while working upon the
Columbia, Newberry and Laurens
Railroad bridge on Fein nary 9th,
was found last week by two color
ed men odged in a tree near the
Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta
Railroad bridge over the Conguree.
The body had evidently been
brought down the river iu the re
cent freshet and had been left in
the tree when the waters snlisid-d.
A coroner’s inquest was held to-day.
The verdict of the jury was acci
dental drowning. Nettles was 25
years old In 1878 he was convict
ed in Darlington County of arson
and was sentenced by Judge Al
drich to imprisonment for life,—

Dow We Will Ride-
On Thursday evening last a thnll
•f satisfaction and pleasure on ah
si'Jss was apparent in seeing 'he
train pull in with the new passed
ger coach attached. Nearly all of
Bishopville l<-ft their places ot bnsi
ness to meet it at the depot. Presj.
dent Bridgers was aboard and a
number of ladies from Atkins. The
new coach is a neat and convenient-

to Atkins. A regular schedule
went into effect last Monday, which
