The Winnsboro Ners remarks:

eve give the PHOENIX to-day the
benefit of printing in full, in another
column, its comments upon late cdito-
rial of the Winnsboro NeuS Contro-
versial writing is the easiest in the world,
so we will avoid it, remembering Gold
smiths humorous Characterization of the
school master as one who 'e'en though
refuted, he could agree still. Truth,
without controversy, will more effcctu-
ally prevail.
The Ne,cs cannot have less taste than
we for controversy. But we have way
of seeking to corret what we deem erro-
neous, and of insisting unon what we
deem right, and this does sometimes
lead to controversial writing. We nci-
ther invite nor decline anything OF the
sort.

To THE EDITOR OF THE PHOENIX: Our
citizens would doubtless be far more intc-
rested in the recent appearance Of the
Fourth Reader, of DR.. Reynolds-th last
of his series-if they knew the character
of the book. 1 mean as to its literary
character, apart from its use as q school
book. 1t is certainly something of inte-
rest to hive volume containing, as this
does, prose articles from the pens of men
who have lived in our midst; such rs
Maxcy, and Henry, and Thornwell, and
Preston, and Palmer, and Simms, and
LeConte, and Sachtleben; and OF writer's
still among us, rs Gen. Preston, Mrs.
Martin, DR.. Howe, DR.. LaBorde, and
Dr. Woodrow. We have also poems by
our young friends in the past, Caldwell,
and Martin, and Timrod; and, in the
present, Mrs. McCord, Mrs. Stratton,
and Prof. Rivers. Besides these, there
are articles by about $50 other writer's,
mostly Southern.
This Eon.M Rsn.le,' concludes the nd-
mirable series of Readers, prepared by
DIR. Reynolds, of the University of South
Carolina, and published by Duflie IL
Chapman, of this city, within the past
year. am confident that our people
will not withhold liberal patronage Of
these books, when they are once made
aware of their true merits.
