AN UNCONSTITUTIONAL SrATUTE.-Du-
ring the Sessions Court at Charleston on
Monday, says the Neos and Courter,. it
WIS announced that the bondsmen Of q
colorcd man named Dennis SmalIs had
given him up. Upon inquiry Judge Mackoy
learned that the prisoner was held for
violating contract, 10 not doing the
amount of work reasonably expected of
him. The Judge ordered his discharge,
declaring the statute under which he was
indicted to be clearly in violation of the
terms of tho Constitution. | believe, tho
Judge said, that no court will ever sit in
South Carolina while the present Consti-
tuition is in existence that will hold a
prisoner for violation of contract under
this statute where no fraud is alleged, nor
any appropriation of the crop by him to his
own use. The State of South Carolina is
too poor to exercise supervisory control
over all the agricultural aborers of the
State to soc that they do full days work.
AS complete as would be tho slavery under
this statute, yet it was passed in 1869 by
those who profcssed to bo tho special guar
dians Of the civil liberty and rights Of the
colorod mau. 1t was enacted 10 the primal
period of Legislative barbarsm in South
Carnliua, aud would have appalled, the

JoURNEYINa ON FRIDAY.-Conducto
William Coulter, of the Pennsylvania Rail.
road, has been running on trains between
Jersey City and Philadelphia, for about
forty-iye years, and he seems to have
twenty years Of work in him yet. Ono Of
the thousand Of travellers that he knows
remarked to him tho other day that his
train vas lighter than usual. "Oh, WE'LL"
said Conductor Coulter, sits Friday you
know"
"What difference does that mako" asked
the passenger.
"Why, there is always q falling of of
travel on Friday. It may seem strang, but
the old superstition that Friday is an un-
lucky day to mako journey on, still keeps
many at home on Friday. Any railroad
mon will tell you that"
Captain Dennis who runs another train to
Philadelphia, Conductor James Fields, who
takes night train to Washington, and
Conductor Thomas Gallagher who runs to
New Brunswick, arc the oldest conductors
on tho Pennsylvania Railroad. They all
confirm the veteran Conductor Coultcr's
avermcut about the falling off in travel on
Friday, and share his opinion that it is
oouaed.by the popular superstition that
Friday is an unluoky day to start on jour.
ney. Superintendent McCrea, of New
YORK Division of the Pennsylvania road,
was disposed to disbolieve the theory of the
old conductors. He thought if there was
auy falling off of travel on Fridays. twas
explanablc by the fact that Friday falls late
in the week, and many people return to
their homes on Saturday. Superintendent
McCrea, however, courteously procured
from the general Office series of tabulated
figures showing the number Of passengers
carried on each day Of the week for two
mouths. Tho figures show that there is
probably some slight ground for tho theory
Of the old conductors. Of the passengers
carried on the six week days, Is per cent.
are carried on Friday, while there is an
average Of II per cent. carried on each of
the other five week days. In other words,
there is falling off on FRIDAY of nearly
oue.eighth as compared with tho average of
other week days. The days of heaviest
travel (givirg the figures approximately
Monday with 10 per cent; and Saturday
with l8 per cent, there being many persons
going to aud returning from business on
those days. Tho percentage shown on
other week days are: On Tuesday, 1926
per cent; Wednesday, 1915 per cent;
Thursday, l6 per cent, and Friday Is per
cent.

Tho Superintendent Of Public instruction
gives an encouraging view of the condition
of common school education in New York
during the last year. A few facts will be
of genera! interest. There are now IL 1858
school districts in the State, which is II
less than last year; but tho number OF
school houses has increased within tho year
from 1852 to 1880. During the last
ten years the State has spent for school
houses, sites and buildings, fences, furniture
and repairs $l6,345,0 ,054, and the aggregate
value of school houses aud sites is S30,747,-
500. The whole number of children be-
tween S and FL years of ago, as reported,
was l,64l ,l73, and the number of pupils
during some part of the year was l,O3l l ,593.
The average daily attendance per teacher
ranged from II, in Hamilton County, to 43,
in New York. The whole number Of
teachers was 1892 males and 22,738 fe-
males, making total of 30,73O. The
amount of teachers salaries was 81 $685..
92l, and the average salary was 1860 Sc.
The actual expense Of maintaining the
common schools during the year was
Sl0,296,977 26. This enormous sum is
equivalent to two dollars paid by every man,
woman aud child in the State.

THE FUTURE GREATNESS OF THE
SoUTH.-Mr. Edward Atkinson, in charge
of tho cotton production department of the
census bureau, being asked bya correspou-
dent whet opinion he formed of tho South
10 his late tour through it replied as
follows:
81 only confirmed the opinion 1 had long
had. Let q line be drawn from point on
the Ohio river on the Western edge of the
blue grass region, around the Western Sor-
der of that district to Chattanooga, Tenn;
thence around the Southern end of the Apa-
laohain chain by way Of Atlanta, Ga ;
thence Northerly on tho Eastern edge Of
the Piedmont region 10 Virginia; thence
BY way of Linchburg to Harpers Ferry,
and thence by way Of the Potomac and
Ohio to the point Of beginning, aud you
have included IN area equal to that of
France, and nearly double that of Great
britain. 1t is not too much to soy that
in all agricultural and mineral resources it
exceeds Great Britain and France combined,
aud is possessed of the finest climate to be
found East of the Rocky Mountains. Tho
blue grass section alone could raise enough
wheat without manure to feed Great Bri-
tain. 1t is grand section, but has been
until lately railway desert, occupied over
half its area by sparse population clad in
homespun garments. The curse of slavery
having been removed from it and capital
pouring under general Invitation and in
inducement, it's future fills us with amaze-
ment The cotton expedition will, we hope,
give an impetus to development in the
South and systematize and improve the
vast energies now working within it,"

How CoNoREss PASSES A BILL.-ln
reply TO correspondent, who esks for in
formation on this subject the New York
Journal Of Commerce says: One branch
of Congress passes a bill and sends it to
the other. If the latter adopts it precisely
as it is passed, then it goes to the President
for his approval. But if tho bill is
amended or changed on its passage in the
other branch, it is sent back with such
changes to the house in which it originated.
II these amendments are there adopted, it
then goes to the President, but if adopted,
or adopted only in part, it again comes hack
to the second branch, where the vote is to
reoede from the amendments or to insist
upon them. If tho body insists, then
committee of conference is appointed, and
notice being given to tho other house, a like
committee is appointed, and these two com
mittoes meet :i If they agree on report
then the bill, as reported, is voted on again
in each house If they disagree, each
reports, and sometimes new committee is
appointed and sometimes the bill fails. But
if it passes both houses, thon tho President
signs it, if he approves; if he disapproves,
be returns it within ten days to the house
10 which it originated, with his objections.
If that house passes it again by two thirds
vote, it becomes law. There is no arbiter
between any of the parties.

Hard work, self dependence and personal
responsibility arc just as necessary to tougher

young man bcgins life in the roll of aimless
wealth he is apt to end it in tho role of q
vagrant. Ho may bo a trump for whilo,
but after that he will be tramp. The
