A negro debating society in Bainbridge, Geor-
gia, have been discussing the question whether
education or money is the most beneficial to
community. The advocates of education car
ried off the honors of the debate and the prize,
twenty dollars in gold. Their next meeting was
to be devoted to the inquiry whether it is for the
interest Of the laborer to work for wages or for
share of the crop. By the discussion of such
practical questions as these, of immediate inter
est to themselves they are setting an example to
societies Of more pretensious, and are educating
themselves for their new duties and responsible
ties.
But two families are known in the politics of
Delaware, the Bayards and the Saulsburys. Be-
tween them they monopolize all the offices that
are worth having, and one United States sena-
torship is an heirloom in each family. Mr.
Blyard, year or two ago, came quietly into
his seat, which his father and grandfather had
held before him; but the succession to the Sauls-
bury seat, which becomes vacant in March, was
not settled so easily. There were no claimants
but Sauls urys, of course. No one dreamed of
disputing the family title, but the three brothers,
Willard, Cove and Eli, could not agree among
themselves. Willard, the present incumbent,
thought 1t his right, as the oldest, and the head
of the fami y, to enjoy the honor as long as it
suited him. Cove, the next, thought Willard
had been in Office long enough, and ought
to retire and give his younger brothers a
chance, and as he, Cove, had been governor
Of the state, he was now in the line of promo
ton. Eli, the youngest, insisted that he could
not afford to throw away his opportunities
while wal ing for the rest of the family to satate
their political ambition. He might live I'M
til his term came, and he had not vet held no
high Office, while one brother had been governor
and another senator, he must do the best he
could for himself. In the legislative caucus
Willard and Cove at first led, Eli having only
three votes; but they stood by him manfuly,
and at last Wizards supporters, rather than
see Cove elected, went over to Eli, and this
curious family rivalry was ended by the election
of the youngest brother.

Attorney General sprigg has written an
able letter in favor of the Convention
We regret that its length prevents our
publishing it entire, and must content our
selves with giving the following extract
1t was directed to citizens of Hardy coun-
ty.
"Our present county and township or
ganization also calls loudly for our attcn-
ton. 1t is by far too costly. A system
can certainly be framed much more effici-
ent aud at least one third less costly. No
system could be much more onerous and
less efficient than our present one. One
can be framed to be administered by one
bali Of the officers, aud thus save sums Of
money annually collected from the people.
Our present county and township system is
unsuited to tho wants and interests Of our
people. 1t is too expensive and complica-
ted. Tam perfectly convinced enough can
be saved in one year, by proper change
in this regard to pay the whole expenses Of
a Convention. To DO convinced of this
fact you have only to examine the expenses
Of your county for the years 1860 and
1870. In 1860 you had as part of your
territory what is now the county Of Grant,
and you were then taxed to pay for the
building Of yours splendid new Court House.
Your county expenses were in 1870 sever
al thousand dollars more, however than
they were in 1860. No county in the
State, | affirm, had more efficient, econ
omical and faithful set of officers in 1870
than We had. The evil is in the system.
1t is the most expensive in the Union
Our interest demand an effective govern
meut, and at the same time cheap one
Such government can only be obtained
through a convention.
The phole people Of State have un-
doubted right to pass judgement upon the
organic law, of said State. The Coustltu-
ton under which we now live never was
passed upon by over third Of the people
Of the State. Its merits we're net canvass
ed by the people-its imperfectl0ns were
not pointed out-the then dominant party
could not afford to permit this. This is of
itself reason enough for a Convention to
form a new Constitution which shall
be submitted to the whole voting popula.
ton Of the State, that all may have voice
in its adoption, and which, when adopted,
fiat all, will reflect the fair and honest
sentiments Of Me people of the State. Let
this be done, and abcttcr state Of feeling
"a more perfect union'-will at once
spring up among our people. All will
feel an interest in the government of the
State, all having participated in its for
nation.

Among the continual developments Of

are paid for, aud the closest scrutiny has.

still, ! cannot SEQ why it would not be as
woA to save it, especially if the election Of

could take place at the same time that it:
