The South is turning its attention towards

most every system of domestic industry, be.

s,nno,t of lpuislatiyc protection, Her interest
was NOT connatihIe with sucl, q system. and

For the Camden Journal.

Mr.. Editor: had the pleasure, amongst ma
ny others, Of attending the examination, Of the
Young ladies III the school Of the Rev. S. K.
LEGAnE, in the village OF Orangeburg.
The several classes were examined alternately
by Messrs. Legare and Lafar, in all the various
branches of thorough education. The course
Of studies pursued by the young ladies were
spelling, and reading i'll prose and poetry, par
sing and grammar, both English and French;
algebra, with questions and examples; arithnie-
TIC including fractions; natural history, phoso-
ply, &c., &c; astronomy and French. 1t would
Je invidious to name any particular pupil, as all
exhibited the strongest marks of having beea we'll

After the examination of each Glass; the audi
ence was favored with music on the Piano in
Duets and solos, by Misses uarh and Hammer
SKIOLD, accompanied by many of the young Ia
dies of the seminary Miss Harh and Miss Ham
merskold appear to he emincntly qualified as
teachers OF music.
The examination occupied the 2Sth and goth
days of June, and it closed with musical soiree
on the evening Of the 29th, much to the graft
ticaton Of over two hundred persons.
If there is. consoling thought, it is in the
contemplation of the progress Of the youthful
mind, and especially in that of the softer sex,
inasmuch rs they have been neglected to an un-
pardonaJle extent. We all know the Influence
Of the mother il early life, and often through
time. 1t is tn" mother who should be the tutor
OF at least all the primary classes, and why not
educate them us thoroughly as Fathers giving

Which the educated will ever confer. need

believe the school numbers about seventy
pupils, and for the short time since the com
mrnccment, it bids far to rank with any like
institution. The locality is a good one, both Oh
account of its heathtulncss, and being accessible
by rail road from all quarters Of the State. Much
more might be said, but as do not share in TIE

this is not intended as a pg6. but simply to tell

Calhoun Monument Association.

Mr. EDIToR: Will YOU allow the following
appeal To- the citizens of South Carolna TO he
made through the medium Of lnur wldel ' cir
culated journal. The next Aun vcrsarv of
American independence is nearat hand Hun
dreds-thousands Of the people of this Repuh.
lie will then assemble to rejoice in the enjoy.
npnt of regulated constitutional liberty the
only true freedom upou earth Above all 9th.
ers this serms the fit time to do honor to the
memory of an illustrruS statesman and there
fore | respectfully suggest the propriety of
adopting that memorable day for the com
mencement of a general and united action
among the citizens Of Snnth Carolia On the
4lh of July next let each district, which has
done 81. fora, CalhoHu Monument ASsncia
tinn 1t may not be generally kaown that
there are six Calhoun Monument Associations
now existing in the State. This is mentioned
to show what has been douc. These Assoeia
tons are now waiting for and expect such pro-.
ceedings; and they require MD properly to &C.
complish the design they have undertaken
This is not the occasion to make any sunges-
tions as to time and place. when AMI where the
Monument shall be built.
Co-o1cra,ion may afterwards he arranged
by meeting Of Delegates from these District
Assocatinnstn t. be held at such time and place rs
may he hereafter sclectrd-and all these mat
ters shall then BE- discussed and no doubt salts
factorily adjusted. 1t is certainly time (more
than three years simce the death of Calliounj
that some general manifestation Of this kind
should he made. The neglect To do so has
excited the wonder Of strangers and the mori.
fcaton of friends amongst us who revere the
memory Of Calhoun. Let the people ofSoah
Carolina thus offer ;hc;r willing tribute and
the event of that day snail meet the appro-
baton of all patriotic citizens of the whole
country and above all it shall command
the best approval ofour hearts and minds
Let US then no: neglect that which it is, indeed
our high and honorable duty to Go.
Such other papers as may approve the suG-
gestion now offered will please publish the
above.

Hon. DANIEL WALLAcE.-We take this nv-
cason to expresses our very high appreciation Of
his services in the position from which he has
withdrawn. Our State has had in her delega-
tons few who have equalied him in all those
requisites which go to constitute an efficient
and useful representative. The interests of
his constituency have ever been present to his
mind, and in the discharge of all matters en-
trusted to his care, he has manifested willing
prompsAess, which few occupying the position
are found ready to exercise. Although it was
our lot to differ with him in the late important
political issue in this State we have never qnes-
toned the purity Of his purpose, the honesty Of
his convictions, or the sincerity of devotion 10
the best interests of the State. We extremely
regret his withdrawal from public life, and trust
he may yet again enter the field of usefulness
for which he is so eminently fitted. In his re.
tirement we hope that the blessings of peace
and prosperity may ever attend him.
