A Patriotic Suggestion.

To the Editor of the NcivS and Courier: ::
Knowing the public spirited interest
which you have shown in the past in all
matters pertaining to the credit and honor
of our State and people, and believing
that we honor ourselves and stimulate
our youth to noble deeds and lofty am BIZ
ton by honoring our distinguished dead,
/ desire, through your journal, to make
suggestion to the good people of our
State.
Since the home of John C. Calhoun has
through the patriotism of his son-in-law,
Mr.. Clemson, been devoted to the noble
purpose of affording the youth Of our
State the means Of securing an industrial
education, it seems appropriate that while
the College is fitting monument to MIR.
Clemson, some recognition Of the distin-
guished services, elevated character and
colossal intellect Of John G. Calhoun,
should be shown. feel sure that this
suggestion will meet the approval Of ev-
cry true South Carelinian.
While the character and reputation Of
Mr.. Calhoun are too broad to be confined
Cardinals devoted and beloved son, and
hence though every citizen of the United
States should deem it a privilege to honor
him, Carolinians should feel an especial
pride in doing honor to her greatest
statesman.
I Isuggest that subscription committees
be organized in every County in the State
for the purpose of collecting sum suffi-
cient to erect, near Clemson College, a
neat shaft in honor of John G. Calhoun.
I suggest that 900 be thus collected.
I suggest further, that subscriptions be
accepted from all who may feel disposed
To honor themselves by contributing to
this worthy object. suggest further,
that central committee be raised, and
that Mr.. John F. Calhoun, the eldest OF
the name, be made chairman OF this
Committee. j. s. NEWMAN.
