riority of the Turk, be attributed this
condition to the fact that they never
drunk wine. There could be no. ques-
ton that the Turk could not be beaten
by an equal number of Russians. The
speaker dwelt upon che tone of the
American press regarding the cause of
the present war, and said he was aston
ished at the almost universal sympathy
with Russia. The American press claim
ed that the Turk, although 500 years in
Europe, has neither country nor
home. He would have had both had
the intrigues of Russia, prompted by her
insatiate ambition, left him to institute
reforms in his own way. The Turk nev-
er excluded any man from his service
because of his race or religion. On the
contrary, every adventurous spirit,
whether Christian, infdel or Mohamme-
dan, who was skilled in war or in politics,
in art or in science, found refuge beneath
the flag of the Sultan.
The causes which led to the present
war, which are familiar to all readers,
were taken up, and he referred to the
present attitude Of Turkey as that of
plucky little fellow beset by ring form
ed by bullies, and the lecturer predicted
that Russia, if not th@arted, would in
sist on the disrnemberment of Turkey, as
in the case of Poland, and then, the en-
tering wedge secured, the Muscovite-
would soon find pretext for finishing
his conquest, and the slow, horrible work
of subjugating a naughty and gallant
race to hated yoke would be begun,
andcarried to its brutal and disgusting
termination.

consolidated under the act of 1873.
In Section 5th of the Act of Congress,
viz: And be it further enacted, "That
the grant of land scrip hereby author.
lied shall be made on the following con-
ditions, to which, as we'll as the provis-
ions herein before contained, the previous
assent of the several States shall be sig
nifed by legislative acts: First, If any
portion of the fund INFESTED, as provided by
the foregoining section, or any portion Of
tie interest thereon, should by any action
or contingency be diminished or lost, it
shall be replaced by the State to achich ii
belongs, 80 that the capital of the fund
shall remain for ever undiminished, and
that the annual interest shall be regularly
applied without discrimination to the
purposes mentioned in the 4th section of
this act,"-it would seem that the State
has the power to protect herself from
this grand fraud, as the numbers of the
bonds can be ascertained, and as she will
have to pay the interest on these bonds
if they are not thrown out by the Cen
eral Assembly, and she would have the
right to issue bond in the place of those
that have been fraudulently disposed of
or lost.
am opposed to giving this fund or the
annual interest, which amounts to SILL
900, to the Claflin Institute. One of the
provisions of the act of Congress pro-
hibits the expenditure of this fund, or
the interest arising therefrom, in the
purchasing of lands and the erection of
buildings thereon for the purposes indi-
Gated in the act. 1t was expected that
the States and Territories would pro-
vide for the same.
In Massachusetts the State has added
not less than 100000 to the fund re-
ceived from the government. In Yer
mont and New Hampshire the fund has
been connected with institutions pre-
viously founded by the State. Connec-
ticut added the fund to the scientific
school connected with Yale College.
In New York it was added to funds
amounting to two millions of dollars.
Pennsylvania, Michigan, Maryland and
Iowa have adopted similar disposition
of the fund. Michigan expends thirty
FIVE thousand dollars annually on her
agricultural college.
To recur to the system of education
that have been pressing upon the at
tention of the Senate, would not have
you overlook the development of the
moral and religious principle in the
youths of the land in our schools and col
leges. Teach them to be patriotic, hon
est and truthful; energetic, brave moral

Teach them the great truths of Chris
tianity; impress upon them that true re-
ligion is catholic sentiment that finds
its home in the hearts of civilized hu-
manity. That the church is but the ex-
ternal representation of the religious
faith.
Instead.of teaching them to read the
absurd theology of Hesiod, the supersti-
tious epics of Homer and the lasciyious
.odes of Horace, teach them to read and
understand the grand epic written by the
finger Of God upon the strata OF the

Hon. W. E. Chandler, Washington, d.
c.: Before considering the subject mat
ter of telegram received this day, per-
porting to he signed by w. E. Chandler.
dler who, as Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury, travelling through the South in
1865, corruptly participated in the spoil
gathered by supervising treasury agents,
engaged in robbing their government and
in defrauding the distressed people Of
this and adjacent States? Is this the
Chandler who, as Secretary of the Re-
publican National Committee, with GER
tain Republicans from Louisiana, at a
conference or conferences at the Fifth
Avenue Hotel, New York, concerning
Louisiana affairs, about October, 1872,
secretly and corruptly conspired to take
advantage of the absence from Louisiana
of the Governor thereof to assemble Sc
cretly the Legislature, impeach the Gov
ernor, seize the government and all its
machinery to carry the election of 1872?
Is it the Chandler who earned andre
ceived fee from Kellogg of $4,000 in
1873, and the encomium "You hare done
more for him than any one, except Attor-
ney General Williams" in maintaining
his foul and infamous usurpation of the
Office of Governor of this State? Is it
the Chandler who encouraged, abetted
and conspired with Infamous allies in
this city to rob 10000 citizens of New
Orleans of the franchise and drag them
before the Federal courts on or about the
cay of the late electiop-who, in Novem-
Der, 1876, by telegraph guaranteed Kel-
logg that the whole power of the govern
ment would sustain the returning board
in counting the vote of Louisiana for the
Republican candidates, and then has
tened to Florida to manipulate the frauds
of that States count? Is it the Chandler
who has of late been vainly seeking to
stir up the hell broth of sectional hate
and befoul his political nest to the dis
gust of decent citizens, North and South +?
If yea, permit me to say, in reference to
the inquisitorial powers of the political
tramps to the South in March last, that
such persons are subjects of iuquisjtion.
If nay, the impertinent telegram shall
have such consideration as it deserves.

In Northern China people of all
ages are dying of actual starvation by
thousands. The famine extends over
district which includes at least 5000
villages, aud it is said that at least 500
die daily. Houses are pulled down in
every village to sell the timber and
thatch in order to get food. Those who
can get husks and dry leaves, ordinarily
used for fuel, are considered well of.
Most of the poor young girls have been
sold; old men, middle-aged men and
young men, and children die daily of
sheer starvation and others freeze. The
dead can not get burial they are too
many, and none can afford the expense /;
so they are cast daily into large pits.
The people at Shansi are said to be liv-
ing on the corps of their fellow-beings
who die of ofstarvation. And the strong are
killing the weak for the sake Of obtain
ing their flesh for food.

to be found in various portions of the
State is being utilized by the erection OF
cotton factories, which affords employ
ment to thousands of our population, and
which will enable US to retain within our
borders immense sums of money, which
has hitherto gone to enrich Eastern mill
owners. All of these factories, whether
located in the middle or up-country, pay
good dividends. The goods are of fine
quality, and many of the mills have or
ders months ahead of their production,
and they always were on full time. It
would open the eyes of some of those WHO
think that every one down this way is
asleep, to walk through the Graniteville
or Langley mills, of Aiken county, and
see the beautiful system and order that
prevails, and examine the quality of the
material produced. The Graniteville
Company is building at the present time
another factory on the site of the old
Vaucluse mills. When this is COM
pletcd, Aiken county will number three
large cotton factories, besides a paper
mill, chalk beds and pottery works.
At Greenyille, Spartanburg and other
places the same spirit is manifested.
These mills are run mainly by home
capital, and consume great deal of cot
ton direct from the hands of the pro-
duccr, and are a matter of pride and
profit to the State. The day is not far
distant when the Eastern mill owner will
find he cannot pay freight on the raw
material to Boston, and then successfully
compete with Carolina or Georgia goods
in price. When he realizes this fact he
will need no additional inducement to
bring his mill to the cotton fields, and
thus involuntarily assist in the work that
we ourselves have commenced. But
aside from the facilities afforded by our
splendid water power for the erection OF
factories, various other fields of labor
present themselves to the entcrprising

that is, the natural resultant of scientific
and practical education. What practical
education is to ornamental education, the
root and leaves of the rose are to the
flower in full bloom.
I am opposed to the 10th section of the
bill, that "all property, real or personal,
rights of property and credits belonging
or appertaining to the Agricultural Col
leoe. shall vest in and become the abso-
lutte property of the University of South

On July 2, 1862, the Congress Of the
United States passed an act donating
lsO, 900 acres of public lands to the sew
eral States and Territories which may
provide colleges for the benefit of agri-
culture and the mechanic arts.
The State accepted the provisions Of
the act of Congress above named, and
agreed to the conditions specified 10 said
act of Congress. See Revised Statutes,
Capter XLI, Sec. 3, page 254.
The South Carolina Aricultural Col
lege and Mechanics Institute was lncor'
porated March 18th, 1872, for the pur'
pose of carrying out the objects OF thi;
donation of the General Government.
In accordance with the provisions Of
the act above cited in Revised Statutes
pape 254, in Sections 8, 4, 5 and 6, the
then Governor, Secretary of State and
Attorney General, placed the land SCRIP
for the 10000 acres of land in the hands
of the State financial agent in New York
He sold the 1S0, 900 acres OF adscrlP al
| 724 cents per acre, which amcanted te
$3.50, 500. This WAS invested in SIX pei
cent, bonds of this State, and purchased
bonds TO the amount of $lS6, 40: ihese
bonds were hypothecated by the imam,
cial agent, without authority OF law, anc
were sold in default of payment in New
] York, and brought seventeen cents on
