and did not kill an Iudan. The mon fought as
brayely Us possible, but such Q country you
cannot even imagine. The lava-bod, where tho
fight occurred, ia made up Of rocky chasms,
from Which tho Indians would shoot, and then
disappear without being seen. Mon who were ere
wounded, oven, Raw only tho smoke OF their
rifles and the accuracy with which they shot
was fearful. To illustrate it: Worry fow were
shot below tho waist, and almost all in tho left
silo or arm. Two officers wero wounded,
and several had bullet-holes through their
ctothes LII attempting to get wounded man
away, I had the litter -bearorn shot down at my
side, then placed him on tho litter; but, as
llo died almost inatantly, and tho Indians
prorsed me 80 closely, was obliged to abandon
tho body. There 30 only about 100 Indians

from what l saw: OF course, it was worry dis,
oouraging to both officers aud mon to bo shot
down, and not to havo tho satisfaction Of re-
turning the salute occasionally.

Its prosperity are least observed or

which the paper derives from the en-
terprise, the vigilance and the watch

rived from the skill and care of the
foreman? We feel the blemi'hes ef

We eat hearty dinner. but do not

The Disease and the Remedy.
GFrom the South Carolinian.

The Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, in tho
New York Ledger, has short article called
"More M nhood Wanted" He calls atten-
tion to the evil of the hour-viz: The cor
ruption of politics and fragrant immortality
of legislators and parties, and takes the
ground that these can be corrected only by
a course of general public education. 10
this all right minded men will assent with
this suggestion that the EDUCATION needed is
more of the heart than of the head-more
of the moral and religious sense than of the
merely mental faculties. Mr.. Beecher himself
asserts that the men who are bought and sold
like meat in shambles at Columbia, Albany.
Washington and other capitals, are men Of
intellectual culture-are intelligent enough,
and yet they stumble and fall most shame
fully. IS the Rev. gladiator well expresses
it: "They sell their country they sell their
manhood they sell their honor; they sell
that trust that is put upon them by. their
fellow-c citizens they are traitors" And yet,
as he remarks: These are the men that are
among the most erudite. tried in Academies;
practiced in Colleges and finished in the va
rious professions"
What, then. do we want? Mr.. Beecher
says we need public sentiment that can be
created only in universally educated com.
munity. Hence, he says, the point is to ed
ucate, educate! But he lays no stress upon
the kind of education that is needed. Hs
says The great object should be to bring out
more manhood in the masses; and thus make
it perilous for public man to sell his State
or country for mess of pottage. We SUBJ
init that the point is to difuse among the
masses a sound education. and that the in
fuence We want is to come from the school,
the college, the press, and, par ercllenee,
from the pulpit We want tho highest
ethics to be inculcated. We want principle,
honor and genuine godliness to be masnifed.
Whatsoever things are true, honest, Just,
pure, lovely and Of good report, let the cdu-
cation of thu masses involve these things, and
we shall find public sentiment that will hold
public men and government officials to a
strict account.
But Mr.. Beecher, in the full appreciation
of the lessons of his own personal experience,
will assen to the proposition that no educa-
tion is complete, is sound, is calculated to
develop true manhood. which does not purify
the heart. out of which come all the issues
of life The brilliancy of intellect must be
melowcd by the radiance of moral feeling,
and no people can long remain prosperous
and incorrupt who do not set up their ban
ners in the name Of Divine TRUTH and PU-
RITY. s2s.------

WHAT A MILLION WOULD Do.-A million
of dollars would erect forty frst-class cotton
factories in South Carolina.
To run these, from eight to ten thousand
operatives would be necessary, the larger por-
ton of whom would be brought from aboard.
Estimating the operative element Of popula-
ton at one third at least twenty five thousand
souls would be added to the present inhabi-
tans of the State Concentrated, in the con-
nection contemplated. they would constitute
a CITY. second in size in the State. But
merchandise, industries, churches and
schools, g., would inevitably gather up
around them, adding, in short time,
probably one-third more to their number,
and we would soon have city Of thirty or
forty thousand inhabitants.
These factories, estimating 1900 bales each,
would spin up 100000 bales of cotton, per
annunl, which, five estimate at IS cents per
ID (4OO lb bales) would be worth s11 ,52O,-
000.-Supposing this cotton to be manufac-
tured into cloth that doubles the value Of the
raw material, and we have S11 $40, 900 add
ed to the present value Of the products OF the
State from cotton alone. How long would
it be, with these forty factories running, be-
fore South Carolina, impoverished and tax
ridden, would become wealthy and populous

base this calculation $50 900 there would
