If the public schools teach our children
to accord due consideration to sound cyl
dence, to appreciate the scope of Natures
laws, to distinguish between that which is
asserted and that which is proved, cannot
the churches do the rest within their proper
sphere? It would seem reasonable to
suppose that all they required was such a
general development of the growing intelli-
gence as might fit it for the reception and
appreciation of the truths they have to
impart. As they are thoroughly satisfied
of the stability OF their beliefs, and as they
hold the evidential arguments in support of
them to be complete and convincing, it
would appear natural that they should
prefer to instruct mature rather than I'M
mature intelligences. But whatever the
grounds of their apprehension it Is clear
that the State cannot help them in this
matter. The policy of absolute separation
between the State and the church, which
was adopted by the founders of the re-
public, of necessity entails the exclusion
of sectarian religious teaching from what
ever educational institutions are established
by the State. 1t is of course always open
to the churches to found UNCONVENTIONAL
schools and colleges, and most if not all
of them have already done this. The
freedom which they exercise, however,
they must accord to those who differ from
them. 1t is quite useless for any of them
to kick against the public schools, for the
introduction of sectarian teaching in those
schools is out of the question, and it is
equally impossible to convince the Ameri-
can people that they can afford to abandon
the public school system. If the majority
of the people do not agree with DIR. Platt
in his structures on the plan of education
pursued if they do not believe that it is
better to forego the advantages the public
schools afford to their children, than to
lose the benefit of such instruction as he
thinks indispensable we do not see what
help there can be for him under the cir
cumstances. Obviously if the Churches
fear the decline of religion from such a
cause as this, they must have less conf
dence in the force and stability of their be-
liefs than they usually profess. Otherwise
they would rest assured that simple pre-
sentation of the arguments on which they
repose was sufficient to convince all intelli-
gent persons of their truth.

SELECTING Public Servants.

We heartily endorse the sentiment
of the Palmetto Tcomun that in Sc
lecting our public officials it is Il mis-
take always to take up the Generals
and Colont Is in preference to the
private soldiers who fought in the
ranks. The Confederate army WAS
different from most Of the armies Of
the world.
Intelligence and worth hero we're
not measured by rank. Men enlisted
not for mercenary purposes, but in
defence Of ali they held dear. There
were just as good aud able men in
the bitches or keeping sentinel on the
picket post as in the military councils.
Influence, fortuitous circumstances
and accident often put the stripes on
the arms. Having gone through the
war ourselves we know whereof we
speak.
We are not opposed to rcwarding
men who have attained Office or rank
from meritorious services, but we
never biind!y Tcgari Office Or high
position as certain badge of worth.
In selecting n public servant we
want the most worthy, no matter
whether he ~cre sword Or carried q
musket.

meat. This is to be regretted as
every pound of bacon saved is eight
cents in the pockets Of the consum-

the demand will be less; or if Tn e

outright, let it enact law that will

There is II great cry for farm
'aborers. The rise in the price of
cotton accounts in groat measure
for the increased demand. There has
been no exodus, aud yet farmers find
great difficulty in getting hands. The
deficiency in the supply seems to he
greater, and the demand larger than

Charleston.

We have been noticing with 10
small degree Of interest thc hshJ q"
the Railroad kings, and il is a source
of much comfort and qualification to
know that the latest combinations are
tending to the prosperity Of The Oil
"city by the sea-" The pros perity Of
Charleston is the prosperity Of the
State. Every citizen of the State
feels al interest in her welfare, and
many Of US are bound to her by
stronger ties than those of material
considerations. Her sons are scattered
every where, and however .paratod,
their hearts throb for their venerable
mother. Her grand old history is
the pride of every South Carolinian
whose purest desire is that its future
pages should be as bright as its past
has been honorable. We trust the signs
of the times are correctly interpret
ed, and that the wheel of fortune has
truly turned in favor Of this good ol d
city.

The Extra Session.

The Supreme Court has reached a
decision OH the supply act. A ma
jority of the Court reached the con
cusion that the error OF substituting
Al for A mills is fatal to the vail lity
of that section; and all the juds dses
agreed that the section which makes
provision for tn sChnries ION military
is without force Of law. In accord
ance with this decision Governor
Simpson will issue his proclamation,
and the General Assembly will con.
vene in extra session on the 10th of
next month.

Unfortunate.

The difference between Gen. Gary
and Senator Hampton we regard as
exceedingly unfortunate for the
Democratic party and the State, and
decidedly injurious to the reputation
of both tho distinguished karlici-
pants.
The agitation of the question just
now has the appearance Of political
maneuvering.
1t is known that Gen. Gary is
spoken of by some of the papers for
Governor, and that Senator Hampton
and many prominent papers are op-
posed to him.
The people are divided in opinion
as the merits Of the controversy, and
the more that is written on each side
the more probably will the truth be
envelored in mystery.
One thing is very certain, the State
and the Democratic party is more
important than either Senator Hamp-
ton or Gen. Gary, and we would
thank them both if they would keep
their personal difficulties to them
selves, and cease burdcning the pub
lie with them

Letter from tho Fork-A Murder

FORK OF ED1sTo, Jan. 27, 80.
Ed'tor Oro"gcb'uy Times:
On Saturday night last at the Mil
house place serious and fatal row
occurred, in which number of tur-
pentine and farm hands were eppap-
ed. 1t seems that OH that mig ht
party was given at the above place
by some colored folks, and it was that
which drew the crowd together. And
while playing what is known in coun-
try parlance as "steal partners"
dusky Lothario snatched all ebony
damsel from laborer on Exom's
turpcntine farm, at which the latter
became cnragej, and drawing his
knife said, "You d-n O. b.,
you stole my partner" and went at
once to cutting his supposed rival.
AS soon, however, as the colored man
thus endangered realized his situa,
ton, he adopted shakespeare. cYua-
let which runs

Nlii live 10 hgnt another dav;'
but the hope here held on, was not
realized in this instance. Death fol-
lowed close tho first stab given. As
the wounded man was climbing IL
fence about twenty or thirty yards
irom the house in which the trolic
took place, with the hope Of making
good his escape, he was hit in tn G
back of the head with two pistol
balls, producing almost Immediate
death. 1t seems as he left the house
ten or twelve turpentine hands pur-
sued him, with what purpose the sc-
quail proved. But the shooting of
the man to death was not all. After
life WAS extinct, the infurinted mob. I
understand, fired ten or twelve balls
into his dead body.
Six Of the guilty culprits have been
arrested, and while l write this all
are underg, ing an examination before
Trial Justice Ehney. The well dis
posed colored people of the community
are very indignant n; the outra ge,
