SPREAD OF. .REPUDMoANIsM IN ECRopE.
The result Of the recent eleotions to
the Spanish Oortes. was the return Of
80 Federal or Ministerial Republicans,
19 Radical Republicans, and 60 Mo.
anarchists. The Government has nm over
whelmiug majority over all factions, and
the Republicans still greater majority
over the partisans Of monarchy. The
federative republican idea OF q CASTELAR,
and Figueras, is sustained by the people.
In the light OF these results, it is difficult
to see what present hope Don Carlos has
of governing the Spanish people. Should
I. his arms prevaii-a very doubtful posi-
bility-he would hold his crown by con-
quest, against the wishes OF seven-eighths
OF the people. Queen Isabella and King
Amadeus have found ont how difficult
that is. It will be observed. that where
republicanism has once had q chance to
flourish, monarchism has afterward been
sickly plant. The king returns, but
he does not stay long. France. after its
first taste of republication, has cont.
nually returned to Its pleasant cup.
Every time, it has, returned. republican
ism hos been strengthened. It is stronger
now in all France than it was in 1893
and in 1s4s. The idea has, this time,
permeated the peasantry, hitherto the
bulwark of the monarchy. Whether
Henry Y, or Louis Philippe II, or Napo-
leon Nv, or Dictator MaoAIahon reigns,
republicanism will grow in France.
When monarchy is overshrown again,
and the republic is set up for fourth
time, it will be still stronger. Some day
its roots will have spread SO that it con.
not be overthrown. The tendency of
France and Germany towsrd perma-
nent republican system Of government,
is one of the most manifest signs of the
times. We see evidences Of the existence
OF the republican idea in England and
Italy, but little yet in Germany.

struck tree under which Mr.. knight
and his two sons, having in charge six
mulas, had sought shelter. Both man
and beast were prostrated to the ground
by the stroke, and it was thought that
the two boys had been killed, but we are
pleased to learn their full recovery is
hopefully anticipated. One of the mules
WAS killed outright; the others are re.

The CoLoRED M1L1T1A.-The lovers of
peace end order throughout the State
will regret to learn that steps are being
taken in various sections to organize
colored militia companies. So preposte-
rous does the measure seem, that when
first we heard such movement was on
foot. we we're 10th to believe it, and only
credited the story as an idle, sensational
rumor. But our doubts. we regret to
say, we're unfounded. and while compa-
nies have already been organized in some
localities, ~o learn that the effort is
making to form company in Yorkville.
We deprecate this movement, and hope
our colored citizens will reflect before
taking step which cannot confer the
least possible benefit upon them, either
as class or individually. while it may
possibly involve them in trouble, to the
detriment of both races, and cause O
| repetition OF the troubles of only two
years ago, from which this immediate
section has not yet recovered. Surely,
neither the whites nor the blacks desire
recurrence of those troublous times.
| We do not speak menaoingly. We are
| only advising what we believe for the
good OF all. Let as profit by past expo
rience. Any of our colored citizens,
upon the least reflection, cannot but see
what will be the effect of arming and
| organizing their own race to the cxclu-
sion Of the whites. The result will be Just
as direful in the future as it hos been in the
past. Here, ell is now peaceful and tran
quill. Never were the whites and blacks
IN this section moving along more ami
cabiy together, and it behooves all of
either race, for the welfare of both, to
do nothing to mar the present good feel
| ing. The colored people cannot urge
means OF self protection as reason for
this step, for no citizens were ever more
fully in the enjoyment of their rights
thnn the blacks of South Carolina to-
day; and we feel fully assured that it is
not the wish or desire of any white man
to molest them in the proper exercise OF
those privileges. As to tho whites them
selves, even though the opportunity
we're given, they do not, as body, wish
to be organized into militie, for the
simple reason, that there is no necessity
Tor such organization OF either race.
Our country is virtually at peace with all
the world, and if trouble were appre-
hended, the trampoosipg of fow de-
tnched militia companies over the conn
try GOULD effect nothing in maintaining
the military prestige of the Government
We fear that scheming politicians, work
ing for their own promotion and aggran-
dlzement, are at the head OF this unfor-
tunato movement, and we warn tho
colored men to beware Of tho dangerous
trap to which it will surely lead them.

Mr.. EDITOR: BY invitation kindly ex-
tended to mo through the courtesy Of
those in charge, had the good fortune
to be present, today, at the first annual
examination Of the children attending
the Catholic school. conducted by few
OF the ladies of the Ursuline Convent,
of Vale Crucis, near this city. The
examination, which was thorough and
searching in all the branches taught,
was conducted by the worther pastor,
Rev. James Fullerton. The readiness
with which the pupils answered the most
difficult questions propounded to them.
considering the short time the school
has been in operation.) reflects great
credit on the teachers, whose only re.
ward here is the consciousness Of doing
good.
Your correspondent would here re-
mark that one great want was apparent
to all, namely, sufficient room to accom-
modate scholars and teachers, and be
trusts that the Catholics of this city will
have provided. by next anniversary,
larger and better accommodations for
their school.
a public exhibition of the school, is is
said, will take place some time towards
the end Of this month. G.

A NOVEL suit has been brought against
the ex-governor of Vermont in the su-
preme court Of that state, to recover a
large amount of money alleged to have
been lost by false and fraudulent represen-
tations contained in his rose-colored report
of the financial condition of a certain rail-
road. The plaintiff alleges that he was
thereby induced to purchase large num-
Der of shares of stock, to his damage, the
pretended statement being untrue, and the
corporation then owing millions of dollars
that were not stated. The case is invested
with additional interest by reason of the
fact that, whichever way it is decided, it is
proposed to appeal it to the supreme court
of the United States. In these days OF
cooked reports and fabricated figures, the
question as to the legal responsibility OF
their authors for damages incurred by
those whom they may have succeeded in
dipping, has become a matter of general
Importance.

THE New York Graphic truly says
"the genius of Journalism consists in know
ing what not to print, and the silence of a
paper is oftentimes more helpful to the
community and more servceable to justice
than anything it prints" There is a great
deal Of truth. in this, and it is frequently
more difficult to decide what not to say
than what to say. No quality is more es-
sential to the judicious and successful edi-
tor. No newspaper should load down its
columns with vicious sensational matter, if
it seeks to go into the family circle, where
the impossible minds and hearts of the
young may be tainted with viciousness or
any sort of impurity. Vice Of every sort in
the community should be obliged to hide
its head and never, in fact. be allowed to
tlaunt its hideousness through the columns
of respectable Journalism.

school superintendencx.

TIE Wheeling, West Virginia, board of
education some time ago addressed inqu.-
ries to the school superintendent of our
chief cities concerning change in the
school system which would substitute in a
great measure female teachers for mascu-
line ones. Many answers were received.
New York city declared a change inexpe-
dent, although it did not doubt that women
could be found who would be able to con-
duct the schools efficiently. Baltimore
thought that the efficiency of the change
would depend upon the difference in the
salaries paid TO male and female
principals. st. Paul, Mimi, didn't believe
in the change at all. Cincinnati had been
seeking to make it, but not quite with sue
cess, and generously added that "a less
number of male principals may be some
times necessity, as an economical meas
ure; for as society is now organized a
woman of superior abilities may be had for
much less money than man of cores
pending talents, and / hold it always better
policy to employ woman of first-rate abil-
ties rather than mediocre man." Spring
field, Ohio, with brief experience of the
proposed system, pronounces it good, and
thinks it will be best to enter fully upon
the plan at the next election Of teachers.
Syracuse has six male and twelve female
principals, with one superintendent,
and finds the system working well.
Buffalo thinks this the better plan,
and is working up towards it. The work
of the supervising women principals in St
Louis is excellent. In Columbus, Ohio
there is lady at the head of each ward
school, and the schools are successful
Cleveland, Ohio, has tried the experiment
of female principals, and since 1869 has
reduced the number of male principals
from eleven to two. The schools undel
this administration are thoroughly efficien
and much less expensive than formerly
Detroit has employed for many years tn
new system, and finds it success, no
meeting, from the commencement, with
| single failure. From all of which it j
seen that women make certainly as goo
teachers as men.

the auspices of the government, by one Of

statistics about alcohol that temperance
advocates will read with incredulity. 1t is
shown that there are only l,4l0 deaths
annually from alcoholism in population
of nearly forty millions, and that accord

country it takes about thirty-five thousand
gallons of pure alcohol to kill one man.
