Injustice to the Poor.

The present management Of school fund in
this school district works manifest lnJuS.
tice to those who have not the means to edu-
cate their children. Although every citizen
under the age of 60 years, pays annually a
tax Of one dollar for free Schools there has
never heen free school In the town OF La,l-
rens The fund that is raised for this pur-
pose is applied to all schools in the town: ac-
cordinG 10 the number OF pupils, and those
who can afford to pay tuition fee OF from
$50 to $3.50 per month get the ADVANTAGE
of one dollar per month from this fund,
while those who cannot pay the tuition ices
cannot get any advantage from the fund
The rree-Srhool money should be applied TO
one school and that Shool should be free and
open to al white children so long as the
money lasts. The very object OF the tax is
defeated under the present management

The above paragraph explains the beauties
of the school system whereby the poor
are taxed to support schools for the rich, and
from which schools their own children are
excluded.
Another matter. The people in the towns
are always provided with one or more
schools, while people who live in the coun-
try may often be deprived Of school privi-
leges, because of the sparseness of the settle
ment, but no one lives at too great distance

Upon the breaking out of the late civil war,
he promptly raised Il company OF Volunteers,

The augusta Chronicle has much to say
about the extra train which the Ne1Os and
Courier has employed to carry its papers to
the city of Augusta. 1t is no funeral Of ours,
but if the train Is run at the expense of the
.Ne,cs and Courier the railroad should not be
criticised 1t is perfectly right and proper for
the railroad to run train for anybody who
will pay for it, The South Carolina Railway
Company, no doubt, will run an extra train
1or the Chronicle, il 1T offers money enough.
The Ne,r York Herald, we believe, runs extra
trains. The atlanta Constitution did the same
Thing several years ago.
In connection with this, we would refer to
the extra mail which is run daily from Yer
derry 10 Abbevilla. The Nc,cs and Courier and
the Augusta Chronicle have each mail car
rier, which brings their respective papers to
town about three hours before the arrival Of
the train. The Chronicle is Immediately dis
tributed by carrier, while the Nears and Cou-
,.ier is laid on the counter in the post Office,
where its subscribers call for their papers dur
ing the evening. Often the papers are left In
the office until the evening mail is opened,
and some times the paper is forgotten when
taking the other mail from the offi:e.

WHEN will the newspapers cease to ere
gret- and when will they fail "to be glad"?
1t seems TO us utterly impossible for stme
newspaper writer's to drop the use OF such
phrases as: 1--WE are sorry to learn &c
ave hope that" &C. ave regret to be under
the painful necessity" &C.
We contend that the printers personal
likes or dislikes, his pleasures or pains, are
matters OF no conceivable interest to the
public and that 1t is out Of place for him io
be professional weeper, or chronic re-
ioicer, over matters which in all probability
do not give him thought II a death occurs

itor or correspondent to undertake to tell the
state of his own feelings. Let the writer for

Our Artesian Well.
Mccormick Advance.

Just at the upper end of our embryo city
may be seen Il huge frame that much resem-
beS a Confederate okout, minus the man on
the top and spy glass; This gigantic frame
work of wood, sixty feet high, and the monot'
onous moving of the engine are boring into
the great veins Of the earth In search OF n
stream of water Of sufficient power to raise TO
the top and force the water into the immense
tanks already constructed. The present sup
ply of water is not sufficient for the numerous
huge engines that pull long trains OF cars by
almost every hour OF the day. Its earnestly
desired that the undertaking may be entirely
successful. 1t will be a great convenience to
the railroad company, but q greater advan-
taee to the town. When the trains stop for
water they also get wood, and 1t now takes
ten cords a day 10 supply them. Our Town
can be supplied with water by running pipes
to the we'll; but according to scientific theo-
ries water will be hard to get here. Artesian
water can be found much eusier or nearer the
surface of the earth In Southwest Georgia and
on our sea coast, fer the reason that these is
over one thousand feet Of earth gone or disap.
peared in those places, and with 1t many
strattas of hard rock such as granite ard flint.
The Atlanta artesian we'll seems to prove this
theory correct, Now we will patiently walt
to see what ours will do for science.
