A Communication from Joe Thompson.

WeSsr8. Editors:
In your issue Of the 25th inst, l
am sorry to SEQ that you in your
editorial, and Major Woodward in
his letter, misrcprescnt my position
and sentiments, and being as claw
abiding citizen" as Major Wood
ward, I trust that in fair play you
will give the following u place in
your most valuable paper.
You (tho editors) say that the
"negroes under my 1ea0 held q
meeting at Simpsons, to protest
against tho change in tho fence law"
Mcssrs. Editors, I assure you that
you are laboring under mistake,
as / did not convene any such
sneoting. InformH:lon was sent me,
to attend u meeting ut 5. II. o.,
convened, as l. understood, by the
achite men, and on finding out that
such was not the case, L never even
got off my horse, but urged my
colored friends to quietly disperso
and await events. They complied
with my first request, and arc com.
plying now with the second.
J. have always been law-abiding,
and opposed to any extreme meas
urcs calculated to cngender bittor
feelings between the two races. In
the name Of my colorcd friends, l
repudiate any intention Of war
either with tho whites or amongst
ourselves. "Conciliation," on both
sides, ought to be the watchword,
in lieu Of "straightout policy"
Therefore did We support the
"Citizens' Ticket and therefore
will we support to the best of our
ability any conservative ticket.
And now, rs to the "Notico'
posted up at Simpsons. J. never
saw it, and did not know that any
such notice was posted up; and
further, do not think that it
emanated from any Of our party,
but strongly suspect that it was the
work of some mischief seeker,
whether white or black. Xct the
author of it give us his namc, and /
warrant his signature will prove my
assertion true.
JosErH THOMPSON.
[IfJoc really favors "conciliation, "
his best course is to advise his
colored friends and followers to
support The Democratic ticket.
Will ho do it?-Eps !

The Public. Schools.


Free education is acknowledged
by most thinking minds to be the
paramount need of the State, and
how to secure it has caused much
anxious thought. Maj. II. S.
Thompson, our State Superiutend-
ent, and one of the most accom-
plished educators of the State is
devoting much attention to the task
before him, 80 that he may present
his views with forco at the next
session of the Legislature. In order
to secure tho advantages resulting
from the attrition of the ideas and
experiences of different persons
who have made the subject study,
he proposed some weeks since q
conference, to be held on the Dist
of August. The gentlemen invited
were Prof. Carlisle, Of Wofford
College, r.. w. Boyd, Esq, of
Darlington, Mr.. Archer, of the public
schools of Charleston, Prof. Charles
Petty, of Limestone Springs Female
College, and Chairman of the
House Educational Committee, Mr..
Hood, of Abbeville, n member of tho
samo committee, and Mr.. r. Means
Davis, Of Mount Zion College,
Winnsboro. Mr.. Archer could not
attend on account of illness, and
Mr.. Hood was busily engaged in
the arduous duties of investigating
tho public Indebtedness The other
gentlemen held free and satisfacto-
ry conference with Superintendent
Thompson for three days during
which the whole subject Of educa-
ton was thoroughly discussed.
The result os the conference will be
embodied in the report of the
Superintendent to the Legislature.
1t seemed advisable to retain the
present system, with certain amend.
ments and alterations to adapt it to
the peculiar condition of our State,
and with provisions requiring the
rigid enforcement of the duties now
prescribed for school officials, and
to prevent the accumulation Of
debt. 1t was also resolved that
efforts should be made to rouse the
people of the State to the necessity
of incorporating public instruction
into our system, and to persuade
them to give it fair trial, such as
it never has yet had
We trust that the Legislature wiR
manifest q spirit of iberality. The
amendment adopted by tho people
should be ratified by the General
Assembly. Not only does public
policy demand it, but tho Demo-
cratic party is pledged to it. Bo>
sides, the people of tho North are
already casting the eye Of adverse
criticism towards us, and any
mistake we mako will be mduly
magnifed.
Thousands of children are grow
ing up in worse than Cimmerian

pure rays OF knowledge, the next
generation will mark retrograda-
ton in every pursuit in South
