the readers of the Sfnr will agrc" with us hal
the above card carries on It's face considerable
check.
No one will deny thai the State press die
much IN 1876 to redeem the State from wanda

its establishment, IT has not failed on amy &C

The practice of duellng flouriShcs only
| where there Isl lack of moral courage. y re-
cent writer, speaking of duels in France, said {:
"rhe French ilre exceedingly afraid of being
afraid: the who'll reason OF nearly every duel
i'm France is somebody's slavish dread Of the
impntation that he dare not fight" If public
opinion condemned ducling, and respected n
man who declined to accepta challenge, there
would be no duels. Very few people care to
risk their lives on what is called tie field of
honor. This risk Is taken becaus Il barbarOus
public opinion insists that 1t shall be taken.
Fear and not omnge, Is the cause of nine
tenths of all the duels fought. 1t Is asserted
that there Is a finer sense Of II where
ducllng Is pvncticcd. This Is Il mistakc. In
England duclS are unknown. The English
are as brave, generousAnd honorable as any
pcople in tho world. Once they were duellsts.
They have, however, reached a higher plane
of civilization, Dueling Is al obstacle 10 pro-
gress. and the sooner 1t Is suppressed or abOl-
ished by force OF public opinion the better II

Proposing to Look into Matters.

Our correspondent "Saluda," makes
some strong assertions in another column
in reference to public trusts, about which
we acknowledge that we know very lit
tie, The Boise fund we believe has
about vanished, but we know nothing of
the large estate left by DR.. De La Howe
for the benefit of the poor children Of the
County. Our correspondent asks the
grand jury to look into the matter, and
we have no doubt that those most direct
ly interested will give them all the infor-
nation they want. The complaint about
these public trusts comes from one of Il
best and most reliable citizens, who is
willing to give his name if necessary.
The public are entitled to all the facts, and
it is the duty Of those in charge to give
the information, and it is the duty of the
grand jury to make an expression OH the
matter, so that Unnecessary fears may be
set at rest.

Colonel Wallace Replies to Colonel Al

At tho request of the author we repro
duce the reply of Colonel William Wal
lace to a letter which Hon. ID. w. Aiken
had written to the Lexington D1Spdtch.
We see little good to be derived from the
controversy, but as the letter of Colonel
Wallace is couchcd in respectful language
and as his language is clear and unmlS-
takeablc, and calls for clear II explicit
MYERS, we reprint it. We arc 'nctlned
to the opinion, however, that the blum
ders Of an intelligent compositor has iur-
nished Colonel Wallace pegs upon which
he has hung much of his letter.
In reference to the controversy we
would say.
In the first place, We think Colonel All
ken's great victory at Lexington should
have been sufficiently gratifying to him,
without applying to his vanquished ad-
vcrsary, after the battle, such words as
"puerile," and "dcmagogical." These
nre strong words which Congressman
should use with care. We should
like to SEQ such expressions en-
tircly disappear from the columns o:
the newspapers of South Carolina hen
used in connection with any man who
aspires to the dignity of Congressman.
AS between Colonel Aiken and Colonel
Wallace, we are for Aiken first, last and
all the time. But still for all this, we are
IN favor of giving Colonel Wallace JUS
tice and a fair showing. He was as sig
nally defeated at Lcxingtona as it was pos
sible. For the victor in such a case to
throw mud at his fallen foe is not III ac-
cordance with the customs of South Caro-
lima Congressmem We are sorry that
Colonel Aiken felt called upon to say an
unkind word Of his defeated competitor.
Colonel Wallace had a perfect right to
run for Congress, and after the people had
expressed a preference for Aiken he
should, in our opinion have remained 81
liant,

Shall We Elect Treasurer and Auditor

Our correspondent Gone Of the Poo
ple," asks the County Convention totako
the matter under consideration. There
are two sides to every qucstion-and this
question is no exception to the rule. II
We are TO have a foot race for these offices,
it is only just to the people and the candi-
dates, that they should know the fact al
once, in order that tho coursers should
have time to prepare themselves for tho
race. We presume that the present in
cumtcnt, Captain Perrin, could beat tho
world for Treasurer, but the office o.
! Auditor will be made vacan! by the re-
fusal Of Colonel Robertson to serve fol
another term. y very interesting race
could he made for this Office, if we could
only get a sufficient number of candidates
for the position.

The present census would ShUw Il gain of
65,WN In the half decade. or some per cent.
for that period. Doubtless the Radical state
census was an exaggerated one, but rs 1t now
seems WAS much nearer the mark than any
body supposed. AS fur as we have seen ana
heard, the present census, is being taken with
Il care and accuracy which II has never hrcll
before. Our people themselves are surprised
ut the present enumeration of Orr population.
There are manifest reasons why our popula-
ton should grow rs it. never did before tho
war. These reasons Rave escaped everybody
until tho facts Of the return show ~ result
which is clearly one Of the unexpected results
Of emancipation. We cannot pursue this
subject further this morning, but will EcrCaf'
ter discuss 1t.

Butler and Cash.

Contrary to a previous determination
We have admitted still another article iu
reference to the Cash-Shannon duel. We
see little good in the interview. and feal
that it will call forth another letter from
Colonel Cash, and the talk about tho due
NAV thus be continued indefinitely. We
are perfectly tired and thoroughly dig
pusted with the whole subject, and trust
that the good Lord may save us any fur
thor infection Of letters from Colonel
Cash or any more interviews with Cen
eral Butler. we have had enough OF it.

Kind words are ever grateful to the car,
aud to know that ones efforts to perform
a duty faithfully are appreciated by the
public is truly gratifying to the newspa-
per publisher. In the discharge of the
responsible duties of a newspaper pub
Usher an editor will often unint ntionally
give offence, and as frequently his course
is expected to run counter to the senti-
ments and feelings of others, and if he

Tnlal averagc percentage Of increase, M.G}9

There IS manifest error in three Counties
VIZ: Orangcburg, Marlboro and kcrshaw
stated respectively Ms having Increased lt'.4
9n.i and Sd.2 per cent. There Is either grave
error in the census of 1870 or In tnc prrsenl
one. If the statement we get from the Rcpt"'t
be correctly given. The population in Or
as given In the census OF 1870 was
10. 1856: in lss,, 1886: In 1850, 23!S2. we can
see no reason why there should have bccn Il
decline of 5000 in Orangcburg In 1870 In com:
parison with it's population in l&G. We Find
the surrounding Counties of Rarnwen, Edge
Held, Lexington and Clarendon maintain INC
following relation In population IN lS.ot Ihai
of 1850: Barnwcll increased i,3Sl; fIgchc,d
$50; Lexington decreased 2.Ml
increased 9i3. We therefore con.
clude there was q slip in the figures OF 1870
and Orangcburg, instead OF being stated n,
! 1866, should have been stated AZ N',SIGo, nlld
field and Clarendon. This would make tho
gain 1869 on 26,SG5, sOmc 81 per cent. or , per
cent. less than Spartanbur. with about the
same populatiOn' Ornngchurg is one OF the
ties in the State, as the manifest improve
mcnt in the business of the County seat In
dirates. as to Marlboro, 1t was steadily main
tanning up to 1850 an increase Of 1000 TO tht
decade; yet We find It stated IN lS.o IT. llfSir
lington, it's adjoining County, Is stated ut 70,
213 in 1870 and 20,3il in 1850. showing mn In,
crease of 5,SS2. We conclude. therefore, that
there was Il slip in the nHurcS again III tnt
census of 1870 as to Marlboro, which should
have been stated ISL instead of ii SD. This
with present enumeration at 22,fN, would
IN increase Of 7,SGS or some % PER cent
increase. -,
Now, as to kcrShaw. we find the sanc conui
ton of things. The cnnSlso of 1870 made n dc
cline In the population of this County In III
on 1860 of I,332, whilst Darlington, alongside
of II, increased nearly G.NN. We are inclined
to think that the same crrGr occurred here
again and that Kcrsiiaw should have beer
stated ut li.75i instead of ll,75i. This. on pres
ent enumeration of 2l,lSl, would show IN IN
crease of 6.Iy7 on li,75I, or some % percent: In
crease IN the decade, or about the percentage
of Lexington. 49,
All this, however. will not materially
charge the percentage of increase OF Tho
twcnty-Srven Counties, which We find reach
cS the average of 1901 per cent.
The returns Of the six following counties
have not yet reached us. Their population, as
stated in the census OF 1870, Is ns foilows
Chesterfield, 1854; Clarendon, li,GS; George

average rate or increase OF the rest OF tht
