If You occupy these relations now, or are
about to do so, study well your constitution.
If you have acquired or inherited Scrofula or
any disease which may be transmitted to your
offspring, it is your solemn duty to eradicate
it. Thousands of children are now suffering
from the effects of poisonous disease transmit

terrible. You can save yourselves much sad

much pain and unhappiness by the timely use

D% Judge 0zr made a speech in Columbia
last Thursday night, on his return home from
the Philadelphie Convention, in which. heeu-
logized Grant to.a considerable extent and de-
Tended the President for appointing relatives
to- office and accepting gifts. He thinks. the
nomination of Greeley at Baltimore will insure
Grants reelection, as he believes that many
Democrats would prefer to vote for the latter:
Our limited space prevents any further synop-

South Carolina Democracy.

We give brief synopsis of the proceedings
of the State Democratic Convention, which was
held in Columbia last week. 1t win be observ-
cd that only nineteen counties were represen-
ted. The Convention seems to have been char
acterized by greater moderation and less dis
play of oratorical talent than has been the
custom among such assembages since the war.
Next to refraining altogether from partieipa-
tion in the Presidential canvass, which we
conceive is the true policy for the white people
OF South Carolina at this time, the Convention
acted very sensible in plsdging its support to
the CincinnaH platform and nominees at Balti-
more, In preference to urging Democratic
nomination for President and Vice President.
We regret to note the action of the Conven-
ton in one particular, however. A resolution
was adopted, as sort Of compromise, which
authorizes the President 70 select State Exec
utiYe Committee. This is the initial point TO
an organization of the Democratic party in
this State, and to- this organization there are
many and serious objections. The disintegra-
ton Of the Radical party in South Carolina is
now progressing. Every day there are eviden-
ces that this will be accomplished; unless indis-
cretion and impatient conduct on our part de-
stroy the prospect. The incongraous elements
are at work, and without being disturbed, there
is every indication that sixty days hence the
rupture will be open and irreparable. Then
comes the opportunity for the Democratic ole
mcnt to.aet as balance of power, aud choose
between the factions, taking sides with That
wing which promises most in the way of local
reform, regardless of national issues. In con-
sideration of these points. we are opposed to
any Democratic orsanization, as tending to
heal the disAeasiens among our political oppo-
nents-

FREE SCHOOLS.

The free school system has been 81
successful throughout the Unite'
States that It seems ridiculous Z
advance any objection to it at this late
bour. The existence of state of pub
liz mind favorable to the free school sys
tenn must be taken for granted, at least
in Shelby county, where the public
schools are the pride Of every intelli
gent citizen, Notwithstanding the disa
ereeable drawbacks to the perfect de
velopment of the system, originating in
our School Board, where " self" is too
often placed in opposition to the public
welfare. There are many heavy tax
payers who pumble because they
fail to see what good is produced
b. free education. When you
touch q mau's pocket, you touch him
IN q tender spot. All taxes are neces
sary evils to the capitalist, who reasons
that TO pay for educating your poor
neighbor's children is, il q good, sore
mote that it is difficult to observe it
How often do you hear the protest, !
educate my own children-iet my poor
neighbor educate his brood; | am under
no obligations to educate them Is
this correct reasoning from the point OF
public welfare7 Is it a maxim thai
common schools by educating all
classes become a commop good, and
skilled laboris more productive than 10
skilled labor9 is unnecessary to refer
to Dr.. Adam Smith to support these
truisms. The wealth Of nations
rests exclusively on these two
propositions. Education creates in
telligence and develops into the best
social system, thereby preventing crime
and relieving the State of the expense,
as well as the disgrace, Of supporting a
horde Of criminals. The testimony of
manufacturers is that as q generalrule
educated workmen are worth twenty
five per cent. more than those who are
not able to read and write. even in com
mon work" The report Of the Commis-
sioner of Education is full of such in
dorsements of the good effect of public
schools. The State, without schools, is
but little removed from semi-barbsrism,
and in such State crime is rampant
The school.tax may be heavy, but bet
ter investment for capital does not exist,
because protection is necessary to the
very existence Of capital and this
protection is developed through the pub.
lie school system of the State.
