Minerals of jackson Township.
Tothe Editor of the Standard:

TO tTtt 1-ttttUI q INC AotuItttttItt.
In former article to the STANDARD I ex-
pressed the opinion that Jackson township is
well supplied with minerals, and, although n
few doubt it, "fax is fax" and the prospect is
still good. Thursday 1 visited the coal bank
recently opened, south of Raysville. The vein
is 3S inches thick, and the coal is of an excel
lent quality. 1t lies entirely below the great
sandstone and if it provesto be general thing,
fully one-half of Jackson township will be
found to be underlaid with this excellent coal.
Some think it is the same as the Jackson shaft
coal, others think differently; but one thing
certain, we have it.
1 learn that very good ore has been found
upon the farms of William Dempsey, G.. n.
Harper and E. Burns. Also, that a Vein two
feet (2) thick has been discove cred near the
southwest part of the township,

A young man named John F. Wolcutt
murdered his mother at Frankfort, Ken
lucky, last week. He was a drunkard,
and his mother tried to induce him to
lead a better life, when he became en-
ragged, and seizing hatchet, struck her
above the ear, cutting into the brain.
The murderer is in Jail.

The New York Tribune says.

1t was a part of the burden of the South Car
olina complaint that in certain sections of the
reconstructed States the white population, EN-,
bracing all the education, intelligence, and
wealth of the community, was taxed for the
support of Government in which it was not
represented. The inhabitants of South Caro-
lima are divided into two strongly contrasted
and inharmonious races, one holding all the
power and the other bearing all the burdens,
the whites paying the revenue and the blacks
spending or stealing it. Because this is so, the
republican form of government, and they ask
Congress to help them.
That in the paper established by Hor-
ace Greeley How long has it been since
the inharmonious races occupied posi-
tions the reverse of the above? The
whites paying the revenuel What right
have the whites to dollar of any of the
property in South Carolina! They never
earned one dollar in thousand of all
the property in that State. Talk about
the blacks spending or stealing the reve
nue.. Stealing, indeed 1t is only tax
ing what is their own, in the eyes of Goo
and all honest men. By their toll, and
sweat and blood they earned the property
and we pray that they may never relax
their power until they get the last dol
lar of it. Then let the whites 60 tC
work and honestly acquire property O
their own, and then, and not until then
should they be protected in its enjoy

What shall we Teach OUR Girls.

Once recognize the fact that sounc
mind in sound body is main desidera
tum for the foundation of useful educa
ton, and it is of little moment what
branches a girl pursues. Taking it for
granted that she shall first thoroughly
master at least the rudiments of all essen

ed, Is taking a great deal for granted, con-
sldeTlng how many girls fail to do this
she may build thereon any superstructure

with her well-being eve are no here con-
cerned about the question Of expense) !;
with the proviso that she shall always
recognize its special use in every thing
she studies.
1t surely is not necessary to dwell
upon the fact sometimes urged as an OBJ
lection to the study of mathematics, that
they are of no practical use to a woman
through life; their use is accomplished in
the discipline they have given to the
youthful mind, and the study of those

glrl-graduate. But there are other stud
les Of which this can not be said; the
moment she steps into the world from
which the school-room doors had barred
her she Is called upon to make good her
claim to those accomplishments which,
are generally considered necessary TO the
finish of a young lady's education
But we shall never appreciate the true
value of accomplishments until we desire
them rather for use than for show. To
take single example out of many: music
Is the universal accomplishment of girls;
that is, instruction on the piano is be-
slowed whenever it can be afforded. We
will say nothing about the many in
stances where its pursuit is but loss of
time; We will say nothing about the many
instances where its study comes to |
naught; it is quite enough TO say that |
when once girls are made to understand /
that d knowledge of piano-playing is to |
be acquired for the use it will be to her
self and her friends there will be less time
wasted over the keyboard, and fewer
vain attempts at performances above
their powers. When once its use in en-
HANGING the pleasures of home is thor
oughly tested, womer will not so readily
abandon the labor of years for any light
excuse. Not that any girl with a talent
for music should be dissuaded from its
pursuit by any consideration Of the time
and labor that it costs, for talent has a
right to culture, and it is always we'll to
make the most of it at any cost, except
the sacrifice of health or principle but
let her who has talent of any kind take
care to cultivate it for lifelong joy, and
not for the brief triumph of her spring
time, if she would not be guilty of desc
