THE bIAGIsTRACY.

The presentment of the Grand Jury of Chester
District in relation to our Magstracy system, pub
lished recently in our paper has attracted atten-
ton in several quarters, and called forth opinions
both for and against the proposed reform. We
give specimen of both sides.
The Edgefeld Iformer says: If we may be
permitted, here in Edgefeld, to speak our honest
convictions, we most cordially approve this pre-
sentiment, except that our notions, as to the ex-
tent Of Magistrates jurisdiction, would fix it OF
Fifty Dollars, instead of Eighty-Fire Dollars and
seventy-one cents. This would give more impor-
tance, dignity, and character to the office, and
while it would be sought after by reliable and in
telgcnt men, it would greatly facilitate business
in the higher Court, by relieving the Dockets OF
the thousand and one petty Sum Pros. We are
unqualifedly in favor of giving the election Of
Magistrates to the people-letting each Beat elect
its own Magistrate.
The Newberry Mirror says: The Grand Jury
of Chester District in their presentment at the
late court for that district, recommend that the
jurisdiction Of Magistrates be increased to the
extent of the summary process jurisdiction Of the
court, and that the Magistrates be elected by the
people. Such procedure would free the court
of many small cases, which consume time, but
perhaps the good of the people at large would not
be enhanced. officers Of justice should never be
dependent upon the people, hence their appoint
ment should remain with the Legislature.

the Empress Josephine, by her first mar
riage. In noticing this fact, a recent writer
remarks that there is one circumstance con-
nected with the fate of this family, which
historians have not yet observed, but which
is we'll worth mention. Napoleon the Create,
set aside his own best friend and counsellor,
Josephine, to abtain an heir to the throne Of
France. He married Princess of Austria,
and by her he had son. That birth was
the eliminating point of his power and dig.
nifty. From thence he did nothing but de.
scend. He died an exile-his son also
Who succeeded to his name, his fame, his
power9 The child Of Hortense, who was
the child of Josephine. In the person Of
the Emperor of the French, we find not the
offspring of Napoleon the Great, but the
offspring of his discarded wife. What an IL
lustration of the truth of the adage, "That
it is man who proposes, but God who dis
poses %

ScALpISG DEAD INDIANs.-In the account of
the Indian difficulties in Florida, which publish
today, says the Savannah Republican, there is
one fact mentioned which, as public journalists,
we do not feel atliberty to let pass wthouta word
of comment. It is stated that after the killing of
the Indians by the Florida Volunteers, two of them
were scalped, and the trophies thus taken were
carried into the white settlements and exhibited
to all persons having the curiosity to examine
them" Now this is absolutely shocking and in
the name of Christianity and civilization, we pro-
test against so barbarous aprocedure. hescalp-
ing knife is the legitimate weapon of the savage
the hntutored child of the forest, into whose
mind has never been reflected the light of civiiza
tion and humanity it has no place in the hands
of the Christian warrior. Let the savage be as
cruel and merciess as he may, it does not become
US to retaliate by initiating his barbarities. We
had hoped that the page in our country's history
which records the fact that an American soldier
had mutilated the dead body of his fallen foe,
would never be written. Such On occurrence is q
disgrace to us as people, and we trust We may
never be called on to chronicle its repetition.

OUR COLLEGE.

We are gratifed tolearn, through correspond.
ent of the Greenville Patriot, that the affairs Of
the College are in condition much more hopeful
than the most sanguine friend of the Institution
could have anticipated. We look to the action Of
the Board at the approaching meeting, for per-
manent adjustment of the many points which have
been made matters of discomfort; and, as the sky
is always The purer for the Storm the College may
then 90 on harmoniously in its career of honor
and usefulness. Says the Patriot:-
We received letter, last week, from friend
in Columbia, who says: 81 would merely add that
the College seems to be as quiet, studious and
well disposed, as could be desired. This is say
ing good deal, but certainly such is the external
appearance Of things. The Lew Professors, DR..
LeConte and Mr.. Rivers, are winning golden opin-
ions from all. The interest felt in their depart,
ments is very gratifying to the friends of the Col
lege. The number Of students now in attendance
is about one hundred and fifteen" We sincerely
hope and believe that this College will now 60 on
prosperousy and harmoniously. The Faculty
will be on the alert, and the young men on their
good behaviour.
