is doubtful, for several reasons.

The State Robbed.

About the Goth of June Gov Simpson,
being informed of some irregularities in cons
necton with the funding Of the bills of tho
Bank Of tho State, sent for Commissioner
Colt and informed him of tho fact This led
to recount and examination of several
packages showing that from several n con.

this discovery q warrant was sworn out
against Alexander Laughin, tho clerk who
had counted, cancelled and sealed the pack.
ages, upon which he was arrested, and o
preliminary hearing had before Trial Justice
Tickling. On this examination proof was
adduced of tho missing of several thousand
dollars from the several packages counted.
A recount of the whole is being mado to
ascertain the exact extent of the robbery.
Gibson and Gambril, brokers, testified that
about juno they had bought four o. moro
thousand dollars each of bills of the Bank
of tho State from Laughlin. who stated they
had been sent to him from the country.
These facts 60 to show tho guilt of Laughlin,

in default Of which Laughlin has been
lodged in Jail. Laughlin was for number
of ycars teller in the Exchange Bank at
Columbia and has always borne high char

somo for carelcssress in putting it within
the power of clerk to rob the State.

The Weather and the Crops.

Thus far tho growing crops are all any one
could desire. Not only are they clean, but
tho cotton is from two to three weeks earlier
than last year, tho stand good and the weed
largo with the prospect of heavy fruiting. Tho
corn is generally not large, but looks healthy
and will doubtless yield wsll, unless cut off
by drought. The seasons havo boon good,
and until now no cne has felt tho want of
rain. All our showers havo been moderate
and perhaps nowhere has the land been heat
or baked. At this time there is pretty
general want of rain, though light showers
have fallen several days the past week. We
have not been blessed with good orop year
for several years, and we soroly need ono to
repair past losses. If we have good rains
from this time on thero con bo no failure.
Our people have planted largely and worked
we'll. They deserve to succeed and we trust
thoy will The wheat crop having been q
failure, thore is creator need Of good har-
vest of corn and cotton.

Walhalla and it's Colleges,

MEssRs. EDITORS: We're VIC at this day to
undertake 10 prove to our people that education
is great benefit to any community, VIC should
show ourselves capable of attempting tho de-.
monstraton of the most common axioms of
mathematics. IL may not be amiss, however, TO
say few words in regard to the educational
advantages offered by our institutions, in Tho
hope that oil of our citizens may be induced TO
labor for tho upbulding of our schools and tile
consequent progress Of the whole region lying
around us.
During the last commencement (said 10 be the
best ever held here) gentleman said to the
writer: III have been attending commenccments
Mt Walhalla for several years and have been
noticing the people and place for ten years, and
am to day forcibly struck with the immense
improvement that has taken place in that time.
The audience looked upon to day shows
hundred per cent. more intelligence and refine
ment than when first visited the place and no
one can fail to ascribc This great change to the
influcnce Of your literary institutions" If
Walhalla is to advance in the future sho must
look to her colleges and schools as tho proiectle
force. Many cities throughout this land owe
all they are to the literary advantages they Offer
Now that our people are fully alive to the ncces-
sity Of educating their children, and thus plac-
ing them upon IN equal footing with the adyanc-
ing world, no town can hope TO mako progress
and secure immigration unless it can offer tho
best educational advantages. Very few people,
natives or foreigners, are willing 10 consign
thoir offspring to lives Of ignorance and vico.
To meet this enlightened demand os tho ago We
must build up our colleges, support them to tho
extent Of our power, and furnish them with all
tho apparatus and appurtenanccs that go 10
perfect tho organization of tho best institutions
Of learning. So that If wo look at the subject
from financial point of view alone, tho invest
mont will bring tho highest returns. If, then,
our town holds back in this matter, or deals
out with niggard hand tho necessary support,
thereby choking out tho new life that is bcgin-
ming to bud forth, she must soon write upon her

| in oil our schools. 1 rofcr to the arrangements
for physical as we'll as mental development. If
tho discussions Of tho last fifty years havo de-
cided any ono point moro certainly than another,
1t is that tho best and only thorough mental
education is That which trains the ehole mind in
oil its powers and capacities, not an abnormal
and badly balanced growth in one direction.
And VIC think that we can now add another and
almost universally accepted amendment to the
older principle, namely, that the best education
for man is that which most fully develops him in
mind, som and body. The college which fails in
any of these departments will stand condemned
by public opinion. AS most literary institutions
have failed TO develop thor pupils physically,
military schools are receiving tho support of o
large number But there are many serious
objections to these schools, tho most serious
being this. that the pupils are ruled upon
childish Or sayish principle, and not upon that
Of on elevated and exhalted manhood. Leading
strings are kept upon young men, and thoy act
under force aud military rule; whereas for the
development Of the highest type Of manlincss,
pupils should DO taught to regulate themselves
under n high standard Of honor, such as pre-
vailed in the South Carolina Collcge before the
war.
Ia Adgcr College the experiment is being
made, and no far successfully, of teaching young
men to govern themselves by the rules of gcnteel
department, while they arc also undergoing q
process of physical development by means of
the military drill. We are happy to state that
the results are very satisfactory, and the problem
of thorough education in all departments seems
to have found its proper solution. We arc
satisfied that calisthenc exercises will meet the
demands Of our physical nature in fcmulc col
leges, and VIC should yield to natures require

DR.. Boggs~

We recently stated in speaking Of DIR.
W. p. Boggs, that ho was native Of
Piokens District. This seems to be a
mistake. The Pickens Sentinel says that
DIR. William y. Boggs was born in China
whero his father was laboring rs Mis-
sionary. DR.. Boggs' father was born and
reared in this County and has a brother,
Thos g. Boggs, now residing in Piokens.
There is little romance connected with the
marriage of DR.. Boggs' father. When he
made up his mind to 60 to China as Mis-.
sionary he was single man and concluded
to marry before going, provided he could
find wife to suit him. He therefore ad.
vortised for ono, stating that he was going
to China as Missionary and desired a
wife who was entirely willing to go with
him and share his lot. The letter was an.
swered by widow lady, whose name We
have not yet learned, and they met in Co.
lumbia and were married without ever hav.

The Fourth Of July.

This great national holiday, oommemora
i've OF tho Declaration Of independence Of
the thirteen colonies. seems to have beon
generally observed throughout tho South.
II was proposed to celebrate tho day at
"alhalla with social gathering and
speeches, but though tho crowd came, Col.
Aiken, our popular representative, was not
in attendance. and Col. j. S. Vornor, tho
orator Of the day, had weok before received
injuries which disabled him from doing moro
than appearing on tho rosrum and oxousing
nimsoif. we regret that tho pooplo were
disappointed, We tako no blame on our
selves, ne wo were not thoro and did not
oxpeot to DO thore whom tho celebration wos
proposed. Our journal merely gave notice Of
the prosposal to celebrate tho day and pub
ilshed the programme gratuitously. We
cannot say any ono is in fault and the failure
was rathor accidental than otherwise. Sevos
ral short speeches, we hear, wore mado,
which, with good cool lager bocr, perhaps
gave tho crowd pleasure amid day of rost.
Tho Fourth is q legal, and, wo suppose, u
holiday from oil kinds of labor, and tho
coming together Of our people that day was a
PieaSaht rccreatlOn. 3FS
The observance Of ttis nreat anniyersary
should be universal il every county and
State in tho nation. From time immemorial
oil people have observed days commemora>
two of groat events in their history, aud what
people ever had day more sacred to memory
than tho Fourth should DO to ovcry American.
Its Observance is not only duty, but is cals
culatcd to exotic and stimulate tho patriotism
and virtue Of our people, Go back 10 thought
lo4 years and consider the thirteen colonies,
weak in numbers, largely divided in opinion,
without arms, ammunition or other appliances
OF war, and consider tho great military and
naval power of tho mother country and you
Will at once realize tho wonderful nerve and
patriotism required to cause our ancestors to
takc the step they did. Consider further tho
suffering and priVations of sevon years of
civil war, for not o fow Of our inhabitants
maintained thoir allegiance and fought with
the trained armies Of England against their
brethren. and you oan realize tho terrible
oarncstness Of tho patriots of the revolution.
Finally, consider the stupendous government
OF tho United States, the home of tho free and
the brave, which in l04 years has risen from
feeble and Insignificant power to be tho
equal in wealth, intelligence and power of
governments that have existed for eighteen
hundred years, and you can realize what
great results flowed from tho action taken on
July 4th, 1776. Wo arc still in our infancy.
The oppressed from every nation and cline
are annually seeking on asylum in this great
country, adding to its population, wealth and
power. Should not tho 4,h of July be over
observed and celebrated by our people, as
the anniversary of n day big with civil and
religious liberty2 We trust tho comparative
failure of last Saturday will not lessen it's
shadows, but that for generations to como
each recurring Fourth will sec our people
gathered together to honor the day aud iluc
Of our country.
