How to Feed the Model Man.

A curious theory has lately been broached
in regard to the effects OF diet upon charac-
ter, the supporters of which put forth state
ments, apparently facts, which certainly
give color OF plausibillty to their arSu-
ments. They point to the fact that nations
differing essentially in their respective diets
have marked mental and moral as we'll as
physical differences. For instance, narrow
ing the parallel to individuals, let man be
confined to strictly meat diet, and In pro-
cess OF time he becomes animal, coarse, SEN
sual-the physical predominating over the
moral and mental. Take generation OF
such, and gross unintellectual posterity
would be the result. Let them, to continue
the argument of these theorists, continue the
Same diet, and the third generation will
rank yet lower In the human scale. Their
habituai food will send infamed blood to the
brain, weakening it and rendering 1t less
perceptive OF moral claims, while at the same
time it will unduly enlarge the merely SEN
sual nature. Let the bill CT fare be re-
versed, and let the present generation be-
come strict vegetariaus, and the result will
give increased brain capacity and clearer
moral vision; but at the same time there
will be such diminution OF force OF charac-
ter that race Of dreamers, not workers,
would be the result. By a judicious indul-
1onca In veoptahlas saV enough TO give q
man good moral character aud sufficient
mental capacity to enjoy good joke and
make a sharp bargain, with now and then
sufficient meat to enable him to get round
about his business and keep him in good
physical condition, without rendering him
dangerous. happy dietary mean might be
established, which would OF course have its
effect upon. the generation to come, and
thus the model man might be at last ar
rived at. Seriously speaking, there may be
more truth ia the theory than people will be
Wiling until further proof, to acknowledge.
Like all new doctrines, its propagators and
adherents are prone to run into extremes in
their statements, and to give utterance to
many absurd things. 1t is very doubtful,
even IL it should be proved to be oil that is
claimed, whether people in general will be
willing to make radical and inconvenient
changes In the matter OF eating and drink
ing, merely to accommodate or benefit
pOsterity.

On the Mend!

A calm and careful review OF the session
OF the General Assembly, which has just
closed, satisfies Us that in legislation, as 10
almost everything else in South Carolina
we have seen the worst, and that, to say the
least, things are steadily, if slowly, improV-
ing, That the ruling majority in the pres
ent Legislature has been venal, stupldly ig-
norant and outrageously. partisan, NOBODY
who has watched it's proceedings can serl-
ously deny. But with all its rascalltles ana
shortcomings, thanks to the tact and unity
OF the handful Of Conservative members,
seconded by the independence and Vigor OF
a few honest and fearless Radicals, ito
whom all honorl) the hody, as whole, has
been decidedly less shameless in its course
than it's predecessors under the new dispen-
salion.
The failure OF the Charleston water bill
and OF the burnt district bill has wrought q
direct and serio us injury, not only to thls
city, but to the whole State, for which there
is not shadow OF an excuse, even from q
partisan point OF view. For this great
wrong, the responsibility rests exclusively
upon the Senate, to which body the people
had locked for q more considerate regard
for their welfare. The House, In respect to
these measures, ut least, did its whole duty.
Now that our legislators have gone home'
it is to be hoped that the new State Admins
tration will at once and earnestly address
itself to the task OF advancing and accelera.
ting that Improvement in our public affairs
OF which we already hail the dawn. 1t is
pledged 10 the most solemn manner to the
cause OF Reform in the interest OF The Peo-
pie, without regard to party. We gladly and
admit that the State officers have
already done much. both by their acts and
their Influence, In The direction OF fulfil
ment OF the pledges which their party has
given. But much-very much-remains for
them to do. Let them remember that, II
they fail or talter now, the excuse OF igno-
rance, which might have some force in the
case OF the legislative majority, cannot be
offered 10 their defence.
