THE SOUTHERN ELECTIONS.

Our accounts from South Carolina are most
gratifying. The new Constitution seems to be
adopted by a majority of many thousands.
State officers. members of Congress, members
of the Legislature, and local officers have been
chosen, and within few days-after a self-ex-
patriation of more than seven years-the fore
most Secession State will return to her place in
the Union.
The new Constitution is liberal and Just in
its provisions The Convention that made it
embraced many excellent citizens of ample
qualification for the work. and in spite OF the
ceaselcss food of vituperation poured upon its
members by malignant and unscrupulous
press, its work was calmly, carefully properly
done
We are glad TO feel assured that the white
men of South Carolina have at least acquesced
in this reconstruction. If the indications given
of the vote IA far as received hold out, it must
show that, while great many whites stayed
away from the polls, a very creditabe number
came up and voted squarely for the Constitu-
ton. We are also glad to say that we have
heard Of no serious attempts to coerce poor
men either to vote in the negative or to refrain
from voting. The tactics of the Alabama
Rebels found no favor in the Palmetto State,
and We are encouraged to hope that she, who
went out of the Union because she really and
honestly believed in Secession, will be the
most earnest and honest in her good faith in
restoring her old connections.
Adyices from Louisiana are less favorable
The Republican party are somewhat divided,
and the Democracy are making a desperate
effort to defeat the Constitution. In this they
are encouraged by the action of the military
authorities, whose appointments of officers of
election have been mainly of the Hancock
pattern. At this writing we cannot judge
whether the Constitution is carried or lost.
Georgia began to vote yesterday. Our friends
are hopeful but the Opposition are making a
strong fight.
North Carolina begins to vote to-day, and
there ought to be no doubt of the success of
her new Constitution by vote of at least
three to two

Of its battlefield monument and cemetery. and the

We are surprised TO learn that Gettysburg has as
yet no great. commodous, elegant hotel. 1t should
have several. The managers of the Theological
Seminary and grounds mediate their sale. with a
view to removal TO some more retired location. We
trust they may be melted to do SO. and that some
shrewd capitalist may them the nucleus Of

Such Board should be composed OF mer-
chants of experience and integrity, whose lives

Senate might accomplish the desired reform,

There seems to be no good reason why the
Senate should not pass this bill.
Either this wharf and pier property should
be improved in this manner. under the super
vision of men in whom our people have conii-
dcnce or the whole property should be sold to
private individuals, to be improved as interest
might prompt, with few governmental restrc-
tions other than those to which all private
property is subject. At any rate, the Legisla-
ture should not authorize the city authorities
to squander any more money in propping up
our broken down piers. The city's manage
ment has for many years been infamous, and
should be ended at once.

WHARHES. PIERS. IND SLIPS.

Following in the wake of his predecessors,
the Controller of this city recommends half a
million of dollars to be expended Gin 1868 in
patching up tho wooden structures fringing our
city, called wharves and piers. For 1867 the
Controller recommended $331 900 for putting the
Corporation wharves and piers in repair, and
for dredging the slips. The Legislature appro-
priated but $4,000. In addition, there was a
balance of $4,000 to the credit of this eIpendi-
ture. In 1867 the Street Commissioner spent
but SS7,459 OF of the appropriation on hand Of
$4,000. On December 81, 1867, there was a
balance of $4,000 to the credit of the appro-
priation. The Street Commissioner in hB esti-
mate for 1867 gave list of piers needing re-
pairs.
The estimated expense of repairing these
piers in 1867 amounts to $20l 900; yet Tor re-
pairing 10 of these same piers in 1873 the
Street Commissioner asks and the Controller
indorses $161,5OO. Why was not the $4,000
on hand in 1857 spent for repairing these piers I
As the Street Commissioners estimate for
1858 contains the amount necessary for
putting the wharves and piers in repail and
dredging the slips, why does not the Controller
subtract from this amount the balance of $l40,-

is $357,0O0 The system of frittering away

THE EDUC.

THE EDUCATIONAL NEED or NEW-T ORK.
We have freely criticised the project of
spending half million of dollars in revamp-
ing the New-YOrk Free Academy, and the
Legislature has, we think, very wisely con-
demned it, But our antagonism to this project
results from no apathy in regard to the educa-
tional interests of this city, and having op-
posed one scheme of alleged amendment, it is
proper to point out the true direction which
improvement in this matter should take.
According to the recent report, the number
of pupils in attendance upon the schools under
the charge of the Board of Education is $4,000.
The work of instruction is carried on i'll 1877
establishments, and through the agency of
2,206 teachers. These are the elements with
which we have to deal, and the real question
is not merely how TO finish few score of
advanced students in an ambitious collegiate
cOncern-a work for which our city has already
abundant provision-but by what means shall
the whole system be raised in character and
efficiency, so that its benefits shall reach the
great body of pupils from the time they first
enter the schools, what are the defects. of the
system, and how shall effort be directed
for its improvement? The fundamental
vice of the prevailing system is that 1T
occupies itself so literally and exclusive
ly with it's implements as to forget their
purposes. 1t is SO absorbingly busted in forging,
grinding, and polishing its tools, and in fitting
up tool chests, as hardly to give a thought to
the higher work beyond, to which the imple-
ments are forever subordinate. That interest
in the tools Of culture which is just and proper
lN..l aV.N1 into
reverence, and reverence into superstitious
worship. From this utter inversion of values
and sinking of ends in means we have no
right to expect anything but its legitimate con-
sequence, and that is lamentable deficiency
on the part of students in real education. We
teach the pupils of our schools reading, writing,
arithmetic, grammar, composition. and rhetoric;
but so far as the real knowledge Of things--of

with but five dissenting votes, and the bill is
now left TO the Governor. The suddenness of

view of the widespread and unscrupulous

Mr.. Editor, -Having visited the towns and
cities of Richmond, Petersburg, Lynchburg,
Alexandria, Washington, Baltimore, Norfolk,
and Portsmouth, for the purpose of obtaining
funds for the erection of a Presbyterian church
in Charles City county, hereby tender thanks
to the contributors of money in those places, and
many other kind friends for the generous hos
pitality everywhere manifested towards me.
May Heaven richest blessing rest on them all.
Preparations are now in progress to erect
this house of worship and to organize church,
in part of the country, where there has been,
heretofore, no Presbyterian church.
We are still in want of few hundred dol.
lars to accomplish this important enterprise,
and further contributions from the friends Of
Zion, will be thankfully received; directed to
the Editors of the Central Presbyterian or the
Christian Observer. Many thanks are due to
the editors of these papers for their aid in
bringing our cause before the Christian public.

About seventy-fye members were present

On the second day Rev. Dr. S. R Wilson,
of Louisville moved that the reports Of the
Secretaries of the Presbyteries on the pro
posed organic Union of the Kentucky Synod
with the Southern General Assembly be read.
The Presbyteries then reported in substance
as follows:
EBENEZER PRESBYTERY.
Rev. Mr.. Scudder reported that this Pres
bytery deemed an organic union with the
Southern Assembly inexpedient, but would
concur in any action Of the Synod.
LOUISVILLE PREsBYTERY.
Rev. II. Morrison reported that action had
not vet been taken by the Louisville Presby-
terry.
WEST LEXINGTON PREsBYTERY.
Rev. w. Jones reported this Presbytery in
favor of the organic union. and that it would
acauiesce in the action of the Synod.
