NEW ASPECTS
OF THE AMERICAN MIND.
Continued from No. 1861.


When we turn to the active elements
of the American mind, or take the d,Ya0m-
ic view Of its recent training, It's aspects
are quite as memorable. We are see
inc the results of the hcroiSm of their
schooling rs well rs Of lis thinking. We
have been all along we'll aware that our
people were doing a great macy things
with a versatility and pluck unknown be
fore even in America; and that they
have learned to do them, moreover, with
a certain bearing upon The great work
of saving the nation, aNd with much help
from the master motive, the public spirit
or national will that has hecn so marvel
ously drawn out and exalted bat II has
not been clear to Us what the end would
he. or how much of the war hrroiSm
would be carried into the new age OF
peace. What IA vision Of human activity
onens to us in those years Of conflict,
that immense change Of ctfart in our
millions of workers from the arts Of
peace to the arts Of war, and Their return
TO the old paths of regular industry How
much the millions did who worked for the
nation at home, and how much the mil
lions did and dared and suffered who went
to the field Fancy fails TO paint the pic
turc of all the workshops, shipyards,
foundrics, those marches, camps, boSpl-
falls, forts, fleets, and fields. 1t is easier
TO tell what our people have not done
than what they have done for there IS
little within the power Of the human will,
either in its might or IFS mercy, that has
not been done in our America within these
late years. Think Of the Withdrawal Of
two millions of hcn from the eight mil
lions Of industrial workers for military
service and then Of heir rctnrn to the old
ways with so much new observation, cX-
pcr;encc, and incentive. We were laugh
ed at as a people who were up TO doing
any thing and every thing, the universal
Yankee nation, every man a Jack-at-al,-
trades, able to farm or fish, preach or
plead or physic, keep store or school, and
what not. Now that we can do more
than ever, and have done the one thing
most essential, we are not laughed at as
of old, and the nations ofEurope seem to
think that our versatility of fingers really
amounts to something that they would
like to have.

mani ufactu,er, who must have cotton. Don't dis
courage him from buying, for il you do, down

The VIOLATION OF THE PUBLIC PACE
By the statement published in the Columbia
PAoeniir, which we transfer to our columns
this morning, itappears that B. +. Randolph,
a co!ored Senator from the District of Or
auseburg, was assassi.ated in open day. while
standing on the platform Of the rail road
car, in Abbevile District, by three unknown
persons"
1t is on occurrence most deeply to be de-
Iprecated. Whatever may have been the in
cendary cour5e OF r mdolph, it is no justifi-
cation for crime. The act should, and doubt
less will be condemned by the. voice of the
w!lole State. Free speech and the protec-
ton Of life, liberty and property to all. is the
sentiment Of our people, For this act nei.
tber our State or its people should be. held
responsible. II is the act of the perpetrators
alone. And fer this, whenever discovered,
they should be heldrigidly responsible. Our
own justification aud the cause of good or

should make distinction between the acts

are the result Of the universal deprivity Of

attached to the proclamation, by the presence
