WORK FOR SHARp-sHooTERs.-I is crafty
ing to witness the prompt patriotism displayed
by many journalists in the Modoc war. They
came to the front-of discussion-with great
alacrity, and if the country is not enlightened
as to how Indian fighting should be conducted,
it is not their fault. Their present demand is
for sharp-shooters and for Gen. Sheridan. A
corps of those sharp editorial shooters, under
the guidance of Gen. Sheridan, in pursuit of
the Modocs, would, no doubt, make Captain
Jack ashamed of himself Let the experiment
be tried, i'll the meantime, in order to have the
right men always in the right place, detailing
an equal number of army officers to run the
papers whose editors are running the indians.

The oatlook in South Carolina.

We have never been of those who croak over
the afairs of the South. Nor, in particular,
have we ever Joined in representing South Car
alina as ruined. On the contrary, we have
always been confident thai she will, with Gods
blessing, wear ont all the engines of oppression
which hare been employed upon her, get rid
somehow at last Of the swarms of political
vampires that have been sucking her blood, and
surviving all the hate Of her enemies, be again
herself It is hard to kill State or any other
living organism. Especially is it hard to kill
any body polite or religious, which has had q
. historic past.
There is vitality in principles and sentiments
which are true and Just and honorable. This
Little State is larger than Athens was, and is
weather., and has the same rich and glorious
Inheritance from honored ancestors; and like
Athens she has both done and suffered great
things in days gone by, and has mission and
work to do in the future. These elements
will serve under God to keep life in South Car
o,ina until a better day shall dawn. The only
serious evil under which this State suffers in
comparison with the other States of the Union
Is perhaps her more corrupt State government.
But this is not at present so bad as it has
BEEN. The majority of ignorant voters (by
which we mean black voters) in the State cam
not be over 10000, and the majority is certain
~ on Sne- GecLS2SS LII loOu LHc CELSIUS SuOWeU
an excess of blacks over whites to the number
of 1922 900; but in 1870 the excess was reduced
to 100000, and this during period when the
State lost $4,000 whites by war and many more
by emigration. The restoration of white pre-
dominance is only question of time. A few
thousands of good white citizens from the
North or from Europe would suffice to change
entirely the aspect of affairs in South Carolina.
In proof that there is life agricultural and
commercial in South Carolina, the Chamber of
Commerce iD Charleston lately published an
elaborate statement of facts and figures which
seem to have impressed the public mind, both
Of the North and Of the South, with wonder
and amazement. These facts are not in our
line, and so we do not dwell on them. But it
is in our line to recur to the literary, the edu-
cational, the religious life which was believed
to be in South Carolina when Bishop Quintard
was sent to collect from his brethren and their
friends in this State the sum of $4,000 for the
Episcopal University of the South, which is in
Tennessee. We presume he got it all ornearly
all, and possibly more. The effort was certain
ly no failure, and we are glad Of it. And just
now an eaor. is making for the endowment of
