a STEP IN THE RIGHT D1RGcrloN.-An
attempt is making to organize free schools
for the children Of the poor whites at
Richmond. This is a step in the right
direction. Every child in the South should
have good education, if possible. In
communities where free schools spread
their enlghtening Influences, there is less
crime.

The urgent necessities Of this institution
require that should, in the most public
and expeditions method. call attention to
its condition, and urge upon all having
friends within it's walls to come forward
promptly and cancel their Indebtedness;
and to the benevolent and the humane
throughout the State, to contribute to-
wards the support and comfort Of this
unfortunate and afflicted class of the COM
munity. For the last ak months, it has
been upon the borders of suffering. None
Of the luxuries few Of the comforts and
scarce the necessaries, Of life have been
within reach. Owing to causes apparent t
to all, my appeals to the Board of Regents
and to the late Governor for aid. have met
with no response. My application to the
command ding General Of the Department
was promptly answered by an order for
rations and medicines" but the demand
upon the supply at this post has been go
great that only five days rations have
been furnished. By my own personal
exertions. the Asylum has been so far sus-
tanned and actual want aver,ed But nv
resources are now exhausted, and [ have
only to look to those whose duty and in
terest 1T Is speedily to bring succor and
aid. Communication is now complete, or
being rapidly opened. to every portion of

inmates of the Lunatie Asylum, after the
publication Of the simple and unaffected,
but impressive, representation Of DR.. Park

the families personally Interested; of those
citizens who have the means of succor nt
their hands; of those authorities which
possess the necessary power and resources:
to be prompt in their efforts to relieve this
institution, dedicated to the relief Of the
most cruel forms of human suffering. We
learn that the ratiors Of yesterday, with
all the efforts of the superintendent have
partially failed, and unless relief is very
sooD provided, the rations must altoretber
fail. There was no meat wha tsoeyer for
the inmates yesterday, ard if the morrow
shall bring forth no succor, the next day
and the next will have such painful reve.
lations to make as no good citizens will be
quite willing to hear. He who giveth to
the poor lendeth to the Lord; and these
are the poorest of all the poor and mise.

Friday Morning, July II, 1866.
Provisional Governor.

Provisional Governor.
Taking for granted that Mr.. Perry will
accept. or has accepted, the appointment
Of Provisional Governor of the State, We
may reasonably assume, from his known
habits OF business and energetic industry,
thas he will proceed ct an early day to the
reorganization of the State. This i'm.
plies, in addition to call for a conven-
tion. the adjustment of the popular vote
and the appointment Of general rnagis-
tracy; the reconstruction of our educa-
tional system, which includes the common
school, the Military Academies and the
South Carolina College. For the due
establishment of these, and on the best
footing, much preparatory inquiry, much
philosophical thought, are required; and
we take for granted that our comnlcn
school system must take in the children of
the newly made freedmen. OF course, the
freedmen are subjects of taxation for this
purpose, the same as any other; and the
sooner we adopt tax on every poll
black. white and "promiscns," the better
able shall we be to arrive ut solution of
the question in ways and means. During
the continuance of the Provisional Govern
ment the officers of the State will receive
their salaries from the United States Trea-
sury, which is now the general receiver of
all taxes. The salary of the Governor is
put down at $4,000 per annum-a sum
quite too small. wish such duties on his
hands, and in a community like ours, whera
the freight alone nearly reaches the mar
ket prices of the article. The population
of the State before the war was fraction
above 100000 Down to comparatively
late period, the amount of our annual en-
penditure was some 100000. How easy
to adjust the taxes to the exigencv, by
making every citizen, of all complexions,
pay single dollar on his head! and Hca-
ven help himl what is his head good for, if
he is unwilling to pay dollar for its
credit The tax is equal-all heads, full
or empty, are complimented with the same
liberal estimate Such tax is honorable
and complimentary; it disdains any con-
sidcration OF your wealth and how YOU
came by it, aud only rates the man him
self as worthy of the consideration of the
assessor and the treasurer, in his own per
son rather than his mere chattels. 1t thus
puts the man on his dignity. Elan, woman
and child, black, white and equivocal, can
thus walk the streets, able to cry aloud,
There is a price upon this head" And
where price attaches, value is supposed
to attach also. This is not unfrequently q
mistake, but the rule holds good in def
ance of the exception. What says Burns
IN confirmation of this idea2
"The rank is but the guinea stamp,
A mans man for a that"
And yet, it might not be bad idea to
make men pay for the degree of their
ranAness. An inodorous people must te
made to commend themselves more con.
siderately to the community. and the pro-
cess of coercion will be best found in the
pocket nerve. But we leave the Proyi
slonal Government for future develop.
