Ml*. Editor:
?Can "worth" bo considered u prop
osition? Yes, by a considerable
stretch of tho imagination; but not
otherwise. The sentence is elliptical.
The only prop*?r way to deal with
Mich is to supply (ho omissions.
? Then wo have, ''That knife is of thei
.value of one dollar."' Substitute
"worth" for "of the value of," and wc
(have, ''That knife is woith one dol
lar." Now, because worth seems to
be substituted for a phrase bcginn'tig
and ending with a preposition, some
grammarians, taking the very broad
.est view of the subject, have consider
ed it a preposition. Hut perhaps in
judiciously. "lie is of a well-thoughi
of family." In tins sentence, ktof n
.well-thought of," may, it is true, i?
considered a preposition ; but it
would be considered vciy injudicious
.Jo do so, except in the highest iU
partmcnts of parsing, in which, hav
ing oursclf for ycais practiced it, wt
are prepared highly to recommend it
as a finishing touch to, but only in con
nexion with, the analytical method.
The same may he said of ail such
phrases, of which there are thousands.
Wc should not, however, derive the
Impression, thatcvciy prepositional
..phrase ending with a preposition
makes its substitute a preposition.
It is only when the whole phrase ha*
by a long and uniform usage become
n single word, as it were, that this
becomes the case. "In-spilc-of" with
substitute "mattgro," will illustrate out
meaning. In the phrase, ''of tin; value
of," this is certainly not Lite case. In
all such,moreover,two elements reside, |
one, an ad nominal; and the other, n
prepositional. If then, we are unwill
ing to supply the omissions, and we
cannot avoid their supplying in ina!i\
cases that need not he mentioned, we
should endeavor to discover which
one of these elements picdominnlcs
in the phrase, and parse the .substi
tute accordingly. Now, clearly and
beyond all discussion, the sdnominal
clement prevails in the phrase, "'of
the value of." This appears from
the fact, that the latter "of" may be
omitted without the slightest modifi
cation of, or injury to the meaning :
as well as from various other facts
deemed unnecessary to be mentioned.
"Worth" should, therefore, be parsed
.ordinarily as an adjective.
Ami now, with your permission, in
.concluding, which shall we use "The
rat is eating, (or being eaten?"
D. B. D.,
Pomaria, S. C.
It is owing altogether whether wc
arc "eating the rat," or the "rat is
eating" us as to which expression
wo would use. Our correspondent
, knows that grammarians diil'er in the!
use of this "Progressive Form" of the
verb, and the parlicip e. in "ing" used
in a passive sense. Some of the very |
best authorities, and numerous wri
ters and orators of the best reputa
tion favor such expressions as "The
(house is building," "An attempt is]
making," and the like. Wc oursclfI
incline that way, but in sentences
wheie an ambiguity or awkwardness
is likely to arise, we prefer hstny
some equivalent expression that will
clearly indicate our meaning. What i
'does "D. B. ?." think ?
A MONO those who received first
grade certificates were several colored ?
teachers. Wo are gratified at this, aal
jt shows that the colored race among
us is making a strong cllbrt to gi t
the benefit of an education to their
children, and that loo by employing j
native colored teachers. Hight here
we will say that so lung as wc all? v
Hie education of the colored race t< .
be entrusted to the care of foreigners,
with foreign feelings, foreign inter
ests, and foreign prejudices, so long!
will the negro continue inimical to
the whites of the South. Allured by
the bait which our common school
Bisten) oilers, they come down here, i
and in a few years, lill their pocket-.!
with the hard earnings of our people,!
and then return to their native roost !
'to misrepresent the condition of our
institutions, and to anathematize our
citizens. -To this fact wc attribute the
cause of the great amount of trouble!
we have had to encounter with the
black man since his emancipation.

.Tub touchers of ICdgofiold County
have established a column in the
Uatesburg Monitor and Kdgefiehl Ad
vertiser. The actions of these papers
arc appreciated and we expect much
gootl to result therefrom. Wc need
tliis powerful engine, the press, to aid
Iis in building up ihe standard of ed
ucation in our land, for there is i o
icfluence it cannot counteract, no
ivull of prejudice which its power can
not demolish. The good of our coun
try, the prevention of vicious and the!
spread of virtuous publications, call
aloud for tho giant strength of tin;
press. May the lite and Spirit of pa
triotism which glow in the bosom
of these cona of Kdgefiehl in the po
litical urena not bo dimmed when
they are called upon to battle for lib- j
City sane tilled by enlightened hearts.
