SOUTH CAROLINA.
Terror and Confusion I'm the Upper
Counties.


CHARLESTON, October 27.-Advces
from the upper portion OF the State
report increasing terror and confusion
in the proclaimed counties on account o.
the numerous arrests made under the
Presidents proclamation.
The Yorkville Enquirer, received TO-
night says: The wholesale arrests
made by the military in this county
have hal a very depressing influence
on business and industrial pursuits
generally, and we presume such
will be the case throughout the entire
section of the State embraced in the
proclamation Of the President.
The crops remain in the field unhar'
vested, aud on account Of the general
feeling of insecurity. business is nearly
at a stand still, while large lumber Of
persons have left the country rather
than to incur the unpleasant and uncer'
tain consequences ofarrest. The future
of orr State is now more gloomy than
it has been since the close Of the war.
The Grand Jury OF Chester county,
composed OF Xix whites aud six negroes,
have made a presentment embodylng
the re,ult of their investigation OF the
alleged Ku-KIux outrages there, and
conclude as follows:
We, the Grand Jurors, upon our
oaths, are compelled to say, from the
testimony which we have taken, and
from our own knowledge OF the differ
ent parts OF the country, that the allie
cations contained in the proclamation
of the President of the United States
are without foundation, and must be
the result OF falsehoods communicated
to him by persons equally regardless OIL
the good order and peace OF society.

The Work of sorting out and arranging

at the United States Treasury in Washing

ployed in counting chance packages of
currency, which seem ready to crunsble at
the touch. Bank notes, treasury bonds.
gold, silver, nickel, all are so Scared and
blackened as to demand the most care full
overhauling. In some cases three or four
hundred banknotes are found melted tOgetl-
or Ike postage stamps on hot day, and the
greater care Is necessary to avoid destroy
Ing the faces as they are separated. Every
note which isaSecipherable, whose value

IHE NoBLEA1AN AND THE CATECHIsM.-
In a certain ecclesiastical house in France,
a retreat was given every year to secular
persons; and to assist them in performing
the holy exercises of the retreat, various
books of piety were given to them. Among
the books handed to each person was in-
variably catechism. A distinguished
nobleman, who, with others, had arrived
at the house to go through the holy exer-
cises, seeing that q catechism was present
cd to him by the superior, felt no little sur
prise: Smiling, he raid: "What! a
catechlsm Are you setting me down to
my A: b CT was not more than ten years
Old when had every word of the cateclsm
oy heart" Let us see," replied the su-
Perior, " whether or not you recollect It,"
he Mt once proposed some questions to
him, at which the nobleman became en-
barrassed, confused, and unable to give a
satisfactory answer. "Know, my dear
colonel" said the superior then, "that
among persons in the world, not even ex-7
cepting those who are very we'll learned in
worldly sciences, there are very few who
and, as proof, you will find that many Ca
tholics who write on religious subjects, ex-
press themselves very inaccurately,. and
often advance propositions that must be
condemned. They would not assert any
thing against faith if they knew their cate
chism we'll. This little book, which you
seem TO under-value, is an abridgement of
theology. Every Christian should have
one, and those who have learned it young, |
ought, when they grow up and advance in |
years, to read it over, from time to time, |
that they may never forget what it CON
tai1s."

So that the whole number of Catholic chill
dren attending school in Glasgow is 47O3
II we add to this the boys and girls be-
longing to Glasgow in our Male and Female
Reformatories, amounting to about $50, ant
IL orphan children in the Orphan Institu
| ton, we Will have very little more than
5000 children accounted for out of Catho.
lie population of at least 100. 600 within the
Pal liamentary boundary of Glasgow. Now
sir, II 1t be correct, as many able writers
on the education question assert, that one
| sixth of the population is at the school age,
that is, between ak and thirteen years OF
age, and ought to be at school, then there
should be attending our Catholic schools in
Glasgow about IL, 600 children; so that we
have only 5000 Catholic children receiving
education, and we have $4,000 Catholic
children roaming about the streets, learn
Ing every kind of vice and wickehness.
Now, this is q fearful state of matters ::
