The facts arr, briof. as follows : In
1857 a citizen Of Schlcswis Ifclstcin,
n Johann Rabsamcn, wasthc owner of
an A No. / Siolin--a Creinona of the
superbest description. That II was a
genuine Crcmona there could be no
doubt, for the fortunate proprietor had
purchased L from Mr. Cremona himself.
"a the Fall Of 20, this violin uns
sold under an execution against Rubsa-
mon, for taxes claimed by Prussia. 1t
was bought by a Prussian nobleman,
who shortly after removed to Paris,
where it was again sold for taxes, as
sesscd by the Board of Equalization of
the French Capital.
On this occasion, the violin in ques-
ton was purchased for the small sum of
$4,000, by a gentleman from South
Carolina, then on ii visit TO Paris, andi
now one of the most prominent OF our
citizens of Orangelusg.
AS our readers will see, difficult points
of municipal and international law are
involved in the question Of the owner
slip Of this wonderful instrument.
Tho latest kilograms assure us, that
Sehlcswig Holsteih claims the violin for
her citizen, Rubsamcn, on the ground
that the sale, for taxes claimed by Prussia,
was illegal-Irussia at that time cxer-
cising no jurisdiction over Holstein.
Prussia claims the instrument for her
citizen, on the ground hat Napoleon
was not in law, Emperor of France, aud,
therefore, tho sale in Paris Was void.
France contends that Louis was Emperor
de .Eacto, and that the sale gave n
good title. While the United States, OH

M. Editor: Your Columbia CORE
%spondent. in your issue Of February
25th, spcaking in reference to the Com
mittce sent to Washington by the House
of Representatives, to procure aid from
the United States Government in SUI
pressing Ku Klnx outrages ia South
Carolina, after abiding to their rai.ara
to procure IN fhfcrview with the Presi-
dent says:
Surely the authorities in Washington
were aware Of the coming of such Il
deputation, they surely knew the very
important mission or which the Com
mittee had been sent, and yet the doors
of the Executive Office would not open
for them, the Chief Magistrate would
not hear them. This action on the part
of Grant, admits of two definitions, either
o fwhich may be the true explanation.
First, the authorities at Washington do
not recognize a Committee sent on the
part of the House Of Representatives
alone, as a true representation Of the
people Of South Carolina, and therefore
refuse to listen to their plcadings, or,
the appointment of such a Committee
has offeudcd our Representatives in Cou-
gross, aud they have used their infu-
ence to PROSTATE the plans Of our envoy.
This latter proposition seems to US, al
most, the more reasonable of the two"
Permit NC to say that as far as this
paragraph reflects upon the South Caro-
lima delegation in either house of Con-
gross, it is q gross libel. Ii this Com-
mittee ever applied to any member Of
the delegation for aid in this matter, 1
am very much mistaken. There are at
least two or three members of the dele
cation, including both Senators, who
would and could hayo obtained an inter
view with tho President or any other
rficer Of the Gc-asn;maa., ua this sab.

presence of the Committee III Washing.
ton. 1 viii not say ;hat the Committee
failed to do their duty il the case, but
know that they neglected the most
obvious means of accomplishing thoi,
mission; aud l have reason to believe
that tho presence of such a committee in
Washington was first made known to
part of the delegation by an occurrence
little likely to rebound to tho credit OF
the,,Committcd, or of the House which APP
poia.ed it.
Every mcmbcr of the delegation from
South Carolina in each house of the
late Congress, held himself ready to give
any aid in his power in the matter.
If the failure to obtain an interview
with the President arose from the TACT
that the Committee did not represent
both branches of tho Legislature, that
could have boon easily remedied by q
.tclesraphic dispatch, or by a letter, in,
dicating that tho Senate concurrcd il
the action Of the House. But il is al

ABB 9.
March 18th,

In his admirable address at the Coop.
CIR Institute Mr.. MuNDELLA praised
very warmly much that he had seen in
this country; but he made some valua-
bic criticisms. Thus he said that in
general u system of education was the
best in the world, but that it needed one
thing to make it perfect, and that is,
Ella. education should DO made compul.
sorry. This remark was received with
applause 10y the audience, and it is one
10 which the people Of the country must
soon be accustomed. The coincidence
of tie universal Prussian education. and
the amazing advance Of Prussia to the
leadership of Europe, is too significant
not to be remarked. The fact that in
this country electoral corruption is most
prevalent among the most ignorant class
IS one that suggests to us the remedy.
Indeed, the chief reliance of American
liberty is an intelligent public opinion,
and that is impossible without education.
10 maintain that opinion, and constant
~ to elevate. it, the State must not only
provide education for every child, but it
must insist that every child be cduca-
ted.
The condition of hat enlightened
opinion, which is the true American
conservatism, is education; and it is the
highest duty, therefore, to insist that the
people shall be educated. Look Mt tho
Prussia Of to-day, aud at that of the
father Of FREnERIcK the Great. They
arc both called dcspotisms. But the
vital difference between them is that to-
day there j. a public opinion. while then
there was uone. Aud to that opinion
every thing is really referred. Bisrnark
is n Tory of the blue blood. But he
comprehends the spirit of his age SO we'll
that he const antly refers to that final
tribunal. 1t is a painful f,ct-and one
that should be startling to the degree
OF inspiring a nationa resolution that it
ahall cease to be q fact-tliat we are no
longer the most generally educated peo-
pic ID the world. The Statistics prcpar-
cd and published by the Bureau at Ed

facts upon this subject. And among tho
grave labors to which Congress should
devote itself this is certainly one of tho
Ghetto devise some method ct COM
alling eysry stassssio It's duty to the
citizens OF the Union by making the
most ample educational provision while

already made, as in New York, the duty

tago of it should be stringcutly incul-
Gated.
IL should be uncandid," said Mr..
Mundclla, "if ] did not frankly tell you
that North Germany and Switzerland
excel you in the thorouehness auI uni
versatility of their systems, and this, l
believe, is entirely owing to the fact that
in those countries the parent has not the
right to deprive the child of the excel

ded. When the parent fails in his duty
the state stands in loco parents and
this is what you chiefly need to perfect
your educational system" Lnlprys
