AFTER all the SANDER and deprecia-
ton TO which he has been subjected at
home. it is a pleasure to General Grants |
friends. though reproof to bis enemies, |
to read the sober opinion of the British
critics. The London Daily News says
He is professionally the greatest soldier
living. No criticism can DO away with
the fact that he was absolute victor i'm
one of the greatest wars known to his
tory. BY his skill, tact, indomitable en-
ergy, and discipline he succeeded where
all who tried the task before him failed.
THE public school question comes to /
the frO..t ili South Carolina. The Legis-
lature now refuses to ratify the constitu-
tional amendment adopted at the elect
ion last fall. anti which provided that not
less than Il twO-inill tax should be levied |
ca year to sustain the free schools.
During the canvass Hampton pointed to
the Democratic support of this amend
ment as an evidence that the Democrats |
were the true friends of the negro. Now
the Democratic journals in the state OPP
pose the Publications and oppose all
school appropriations until the Yankee
books useI in the schools, are expurga-
ted of their i',Radicalo hes," and the
Journal of Commerce says
that before another dollar is spent for
schools the General Assembly shOuld
provide eSotttherit histories and South
