Tho Facts In the Case Of the South Carolina
University.
ANDERSON

ANDERSON, S. c., May rs, 1873.
Mr.. EpIroR Some parties maths County
are endeayoring to get up feeling Of dissatisfac
ton in reference 10 the action Of the Legislature
in regard to the South Carolina University. Il
will, therefore, state the facts, SO that parties
may make up an intelligent opinion, and not be
misled by misrepresentation.
1. ArticlNa0, section ., Of the Constitution
eof th<>staSg sSyss-ssfhss0 General AssemSay small
provide annually for the maintenance OF the
South Carolina University" This every men,
Der of the General Assembly took solemn oath
to do when he was sworn into Office.
2. Section IA Of IAN act to provide for the
organization Of the State University" approved
March 22j, 1873, provides "that the Board of
Trustees be, and they are hereby, authorized
and required swhenever they shall receive ex-
press authority from the General Assembly to
do SO, as may be practicable, TO organize each
of the said branches of the University, by estab,
fishing such schools in each of them, and pre-
scrbng such course and mode of Instruction
therein as they may see fit" &C., &C. No such
authority has been granted, nor will there DO
until the State is able to afford it

tion bill "The sum Of two thousand one zhap-

Tho Weather and Crops.

With the exception of where the storm of last
Monday visited, rain is needed all over this
county. The corn is not suffering much, yet,
but it begins to draw up during the heat of the
day Gardens are suffering greatly for rain

has been properly worked.

Rock Hill in Ashes.

On Tuesday night last fire occurred at Rock
Hill, in York Co., which destroyed nearly all
the business portion Of the town. 1t is thought
the fire occurred from kerosine lamp, which
young man left burning on top of bed post
which had been sawed off. Whether the lamp
burstcd or fell on the bed is not known.

Another Great Race.

We sec it announced that four mile and re-
peat race, between the celebrated horse Ten
Brock and Molly Mccarthy, California Mare,
for $4,000, will come off on the 4th of July,
Mt Louisville. The Californians feel confident
and are backing the mare to large amounts,
although her fastest recorded time, in the second
heat of four mile and repeat, is 1881, while
Ten Brock has done it in 7.l5.

s16rn4,l ~ - tU0 Uo1a0y NV dUr0fidn OF the
South Carolina University, five hundred dollars.
3. For repairs on University building, six hum
dred dollars" Hence, you see the wonderful
outlay. The buildings cost many thousand dol
lars, and common sense requires that they should
be repaired and kept Insured The library is
Que Of the most valuable in the South, and must
be protected.
1. There was one other important reason for
The passage of this Act. The Clafin College, ut
Crangcburg, was founded since the war for col
ured students, by Northern people, and by the
sale Of lund-scrip, given by Congress to the diff
icreut States for educational purposes. By the
Act of Congress granting this nd-sCri phe State
j. made responsible for the interest on this fund
and has to pay it annually. This college had
been the hotbcd Of Radicalsm in former times,
aud it was necessary that it should be put in
better hands. So by this Act it was put under
the control of our own people, and property of
the value of twenty thousand dollars was ac-
puired by the State without one cents increased
liability, for the interest on the land-scrip had
10 be paid whether we controlled it or not.
These are the facts of the case. The univer-
sity was not opened, nor did the bill seek to
open it, but simply TO rcorganize it. The am cunt
cr taxes spent on it is tho pitiful sum of TWEEN
ty-one hundred dollars, and all goes for insur.
ance, repairs of the library roof, which was
leaking badly and damaging the books, and the
salary Of librarian to preserve these valuable
works.
simply make this statement that o proper
understanding may be had, and misstatements
corrected. Respectfully,

NEwBERRY FOR CovENTIoN.-We learn from
the Newberry Ueraia that the Convention of
that County, on the 25th ult, reconsidered the
vote by which the primary election plan was
adopted at their previous session, and rescinded
their former resolution adopting that plan, and
adopted the Convention system. The sober sec
ond thought is often n safe plan Of action.

SOME curious experiments have been
made in England for the purpose of
demonstrating the value of infantry as
opposed to artillery. The result was
not such rs was anticipated. A half
battery of artillery was represented by
three logs of wood painted black, each
supported by a couple of trestles. The
guns were at full intervals and placed
on a shelf Of the target butt, about
twelve feet above the level of the range.
In rear of each gun, at a distance of
some four yards, were placed, resting on
a slightly inclined position against the
target butt, a brown blanket on a frame
eight feet square. These represented
the limbers and their teams. The
gunners were supposed to be kneeling
in shallow pits, giving some slight pro-
/. lection, and were represented by black
boards four feet high by twenty inches
broad, the top diminishing like the
summit of a tombstone. There were
five gunners to each gun, one gunner
to each timber, and IN officer. In order
to give an air of realism to the expert
ment, a fire of wood and straw was
kinkled on one side of the guns, in or
der that the latter might be partly
sbrouded in smoke as they would be in
action. Opposed to these guns were

New YORK, June "A morning paper says
We call attention to the fact that Mrs. Har-
riet Noyos, of Boston. writes a letter stating
that the home for wOrkingw0rnen in that city
has restrictions and regulations similar tC
those in operation at Stewards WOmen'e
Hotel, and that, where they differ those at
the Boston Home are more strict No visitors
at all are allowed on Sundays until evening,
and boarders are required to obtain permits
sion OF the superintendent if they fail to
attend church.
Tho charge for single boarders is SIS 80 per
week. At the WOman's Hotel the charge was
S. per week, and certainly New York living at
that price was much cheaper than Boston
living at fifty cents less a week.
The homes Of the Ladies' Christian Union,
in this city, are governed by rules more
stringent than those of the Womcn's Hotel
and hence we can see no justice in the com
plntnts of undue severity made against Judge
HLtOn's management Of the WOman's Hotel
