The subscription to tho Walhalla College ed

>, COUNTY Treasurer II. s. Porchor up to
Tuesday evening, July Oath, had collected
tho following amount Of taxes; State tax;
$l,83l.4S; County, $7s5.9s, poll, 500; total,
$2,7lO.46. Oconee. we believe, is the banner
County in tax paying, 80 far az heard from.
Sunday night, after attending church, wo
saw and heard three young gentlemen of our
town on their way homo singing, as loud as
their voices would admit, that familiar old
plantation melody, "Old Folks at Home.h
Young mon, be moro careful of whdt kind Of
songs you, sing, especially on Sunday; and
that, too. just after coming out of church.
Major Bon. Sloan has consented to aooept tho
Professorship Of Mathematics in our college.
Ho is graduate Of Wost Point with high dis
tinction and Is we'll known to our people, Wo
are satisfied no moro fortunate or acceptable
selection could be made, and his acceptance
gives us double assurance OF building up first
GLASS college at Walhalla.
The Changers of this county must not
forget the meeting of the State Grange at
Anderson, on the 9th of August. A large
attendance Of patrons and agrioulturists
from oil parts of tho State is expected, and
both pleasure and profit may bo reasonably
anticipated. Observing men never fail to
learn something useful on such occasions
and We hope many Of our people will find
time to attend.
We publish communication from Rev. w.
W. Sanders In advocacy Of our college which
| will repay careful perusal. Mr.. 8. received
! tho unanimous recommendation Of the commit
tco on professors for tho chair Of mathematics,
but for some unaccountablo reason was not CON
frmed by tho stockholders. His ability and
fitness for tho position was amply attested by a
number Of prominent men In Alabama, who
were familiar with his past life and standing ae
o student and teaohor. Under these oiroum-
stances his rejection to us was moro than sur.
prise, and to his friends, through whose inlu.
enco and pressure he permitted the use Of his
namc, it must have been painful defeat. In
| the communication Of Mr.. 8. he has exhibited
the spirit of truo manhood, not only In advooat-
ing tho college, but in using his great influence
with those personal friends Of his own donomi
nation to take no offence, but to work unre
mittingly for On enterprise which In importance
to our town aud county rises superior to the
personal claims and feelings of any individal o,
class. Mr.. 8. has exhibited spirit the praotio,
Of which would mako mankind better and more
tolerant.

In 9 Pennsylvania town recently, fot thB sdp.
measures proposed aud reserved for fdtthct
consideration was the appdlntth Of police
patrol of fourteen men, ten Of whom are TO be
mounted, dnd the employment Of vsgrants
who are arrested in repairing public roads.
Several of the Pennsylvania journals warmly
advocate this method of utilizing the labor Of
tramps. It would not seom difficult to devise
means for enforcing it, and If this could be
done every community would be in part at
least reimbursed for the trouble aud expense
involved in suppresslng vagranoy. Most Of
the rural thoroughfares, especially In tho
Southern States, are vastly in need Of im.
provement, and If the tramps who use these
thoroughfares so much could be compelled to
put them In something like good order it
would be great benefit to the community,
and render what is now an unmixed evil q
source 50 S Of practical good; Food supplies are
the necessaries Of life could be provided with
little cost for oil the tramps who frequent
country neighborhoods during the summer
months.

The LOUISIANA RETURNING BOARD CAsE.-
Mr.. Finney, tho District Attorney for tho
parish Of New Orleans, has written to the
New York Herald on explanatory letter in
reply to the comments of Mossrs. Wells, An
dorson and their associate members Of the
Louisiana returning board in regard to the
charges preferred against thom in tho Supe-
rior Criminal Court Of New Orleans. Mr.
Finney states that it is true that tho grand
jury did not find, as was originally reported
q bill of indictment against the mombors Of
tho returning board. But they did what
most persons will consider equivalent to it,
On the'27th of Juno, just prior to tho adjourn
mont, tho grand jury authorized their fore
man to make written request to the court to
instruct the District Attorney to flo tho
proper information aginst tho members of
tho returning board "for perjury, forgery and
altering the roturns of Mount Vernon Parish
and other parishes of the State." Eight days
afterward, acting in accordance with these
instructions, Mr.. Finney said ho flcd, in
modified form. tho information upon which
Wells and his colleagues must appear for trial.
lilo declares further that neither of tho politi~
cal parties has had tho least concern in
procuring tho prosecution. His object in
what no has done, We arc told, is simply to
bring guilty mon to justice, this being what
no is sworn to do, and mono, he adds, shall
escape punishment if he can prevent.
