TIE CERTIFICATES

Washington, May 25-The secretary of
the treasury says he has received several
letters inquiring Why he does not advance
the price of refunding certificates, and to
secure t. the government premium on
them. He calls attention to the fact that
the law authorizing the issue of these Ger
tlhcates expressly directs him to issue
them 10 exchange for lawful money of tue
United States. and thus fixes the rate at
which be is compelled to sell them. The
original draft Of the bill sent to congress
simply contained authority to sell these
certificates. but congress. like every one
them. adopted price, and manner of ex-
change for them at par was directed. II
these securities, the secretary says, could
only bs sold to actusl investors 10 limited
sums. II would be wise disposition of
them. 1t Is believed that great many do
get into the hands Of such people. but post
masters aud other disbursing officers can
not distinguish between real investors and
those who buy to sell again.

A Sad Amiction.

In the last few days the yellow
fever has visited the family of Gen
j. Is. Hood, ut New Orlcar.s, viii
terrible havoc.
2lIs Hood was the first victim.
Then the General him -elfwas sticken
down; and, II few days after, their
little daughter Edith followed the
mother and father to the grave. Two
more Of the children have since been
attacked, and il is impossible to say
what will be the suit.
Gen. Hood was known during the
war as gallant and dashing soldier
and since the war as Il quiet ant
cstimahlc citizen, and the sad in
telligence Of the afIlctiDn to his
household will be received through
out the country with deep and heart
felt sorrow.

Cur nblic School System.

An address delivered at Able
Vile by Mr.. w. G Ecnct on the
above subject has excited consider
aHlc cOmmcnt on account Jf its ori Il.
nalily independence and power.
l'c reviews very frankly the dc
itcts as well ms the advantages OF III e
system.
Among the defects he mentions
the cMcling o! the s,anlari Of cdu-
cation, !hc loss ofin,liviJuAiiiy, anl

Ia regard to our STATE system he
thnls lLat it is moi Il 'ap,cd TO tic

l'c ilinks tlat.thc Public ;c!.ool

AL, But rs a supplementary fund, to
Et clt"intd on c,mlliunce W th Ger
tain conditions, and he thinks that
this fund shou;,! be used only ior
uosc who. are not able to pay.
AS - means Of having long sc c.looi
sessions, and o! increasing the pay OF
teachers, he recommends Il change Of
the scholastic age 50 that it may m

formidable ol stacles TO the perfection
Of cur Public School system is the
difficulty Of raising an adequate sum

.,si'irnL Of the United States which
is II feat no other Democrat has ac,
complished since 1857. That he was
coun'cd out, was not his fault, but tn G
fault of the Southern Democrats in
Congress, who consented to the EIec,
toral Commission. If Mr.. Tildcn is
not the right man for the Democratic
nomination for ncrt President. which
may be true, let us oppose him on
this ground, but we don't think i,
justice to abuse him for what he is
not responsible.
The truth, so far rs we can observe
is, that Southern Congressman crca-
ted or helped to create the Electoral
Commission, and the gray headed
Judges of the Supreme Court, who

immigration.

We have always thought that we
have been too Indifferent on tL, suh.
lect OF immigration. During the
days of Radicalsm ~ it was frcuu emily
spoken OF as means of political
rcllct, but it seems that we were too
htlp'c,s to carry it out, and havinr
no con,!ol in public affairs, we could
get 10 aid from the State. But now
VIC lave the rcigns Of government
and we seem to be satisfied with our
condition, and make no effort for our
Improvement in this direction.
lnln:isratin would benefit us in
two ways, "grculturalIy and politi-
cally.
Agricnl'urally we have plenty of
room for the stranger to settle
amongst us, and we need his presence
to help us utilize our waste lands AMI
develop cur incxhaustibic resources.
Materially his occupation will in,
crease cur produces, and enhance the
value Of our lands. Railroads, good
schools and other advantages would
so,n follow the settling up Of the
country.
Politically, immigration would ben
eft us in increasing the chances Of
good vcrnmen.
During the reign Of Radicalism it
WAS looked TO in this light, and we
rcmcn bcr distinctly that in one small
section IN Orar gcbury County, hun
drcds of acres of land were willing
ly subscribed by the farmers to ad-
vance the cause. 1t is incorrect to
sly that the Southern people don't
know how to treat strangers and i'm
migrants. The characteristic Of our
people is exactly the reverse of this.
We I. ko up the new in preference to
The old, and strangers are ALWAYS
taken Ly the hand, and arc hcIpeI
UP the hill Of lie it seems more
zealcu:'y tlon Tic Old inhabitant.
AS TO the mode Of encouraging
immigraiinn we have, like them ews
and Courier and other writer's. no
well defined SC! cmc to present; but
we think that our emocratic State
government, while it has power,
ought to establish 4 bureau of immi-
grafton with efficient means and fl i.
oiiitics TO induce immigration by com
pcicnt agents, and the publication OF
pamphlets, showing our advantages,
with the lands that may be attaina-
bic, either by glit or purchase.
Tie Legislature ought to take
action on the subject for our future
rood.
