Praise for tho Citadel.

CHARLESTON, July 11.-Ono OF the
issues in recent political campaigns in
South Carolina has been tho education
nj institutions which have been sup
ported by tho State. It was feared al
one time that in the general work ol
reconstruction, the South Carolina Mill.
tary Academy might be upset, but Gov
ernor Tillman and the Legislature have
not withhold State aid from this institu-
ton and as the report of Lieut.. Col. G.
II. Burton, inspector general Of tho
United States Army, declares, they
have acted with rare good Judgment.
In this report, after setting forth in de-
tall the physical condition ofthe acad
envy, Col. Burton says:
The discipline, military instruction,
bearing and general appearance of the
cadets; the general caro- and condition
OF arms and equipments, and the entire
military aspect Of tho military depart
NIT of this academy, admit of no com.
parison to any of the colleges with which
| have had experience. 1t is 80 superior
in nll it's methods, scope, appointments
and Its distinctive military features, that
1t must be classed alone, and can only
DO compared to our national military
academy. In the military bearing, cohe.
sion and drill Of all kinds in the infantry
tactics, this battalion equals any organiza
tlon in the army and is but little short of
thatsuperb excellence generally believed
tobe possessed by the national cadets.o
After extolling tho work and merlts
of Lieut.. jenkins, the military instructor
assigned to tho academy by the war dc.
partment, Col. Burton saya: "The col
lege merits the best support tho govern
mont can give to the most advanced
of tho civil institution where the art of
war is taught, for the reason that the ma
ton receives from it results correspond
ing TO Its 9reRtest demands."

Gives HI. Home to the Poor.

A dispatch from Waverly, Ia, says:
To the INDECENT people of Bremen county
the prospects of a journey "over the
hills to the poorhouse" will h~enceforth
be robbed of many of its %terrors, for,
through the generosity of Mr.. Abraham
Simmer, those who are SO unfortunate
as to become public charges will dwell
in marble halls. Mr.. Simmer TODAY
dropped into the county auditors office
while the board of supervisors was in
session and pleasantly surprised that
body by presenting it with a deed Of
his palatial mansion that overlooks the
city from the west, and which, with the
beautiful park surrounding it, is valued
at $50. 900. The only condition of the
transfer is that the dwelling should be
used exclusively rs Il home for O per-
sons, and the donor fakes it upon HIM
self to pay the expenses Of the establish
ment till his death.

Major II. ID. Whitcomb, the resident en-
gineer of the James River Improvement,
had issued invitations to members of the

nent business men TO accompany him on
a trip down the river TO Dutch Gap. The
object Of the excursion was 10 discuss
the improvements to the channel at Ran
dolph Flat Shoals and other places. in
the presence of Colonel w. Il. Craighill,
who IS in charge Of the improvements
made by the Federal Government.
Major Whitcomb had sent TO the wharf

Norfolk Colonel Craighill had gone down
the river early in the afternoon in a
steam-launch, TO inspect the work exc
cuted since his last visit.
Major Whitcomb and party therefore
decided TO steam down the river and
meet him on his way coming I'd. The
steamer had only gone little way when
the lduDtn tOibiANl aidiSllii
and Captain Carter, chief engineer Of the
Lawrence River Improvement, came in

cuses for not coming on board of the
Pocahontas, for he had to go up town
at once to take the evening train for
Washington.

to continue the trip without him. The
steamer went as far as Dutch Cap Civ

spect the improvements made during last
winter Mr.. II. j. Weisiger the popular
agent OF the Virginia Navigation Com
pany, and Colonel c. p. +. Burgwyn, of

TO make the trip as pleasant as posi-
bic, and were exceedingly successful in
their undertaking. 1t was shortly after s
o'clock last evening when the steamer
returned to her wharf.

comb on the trip consisted Of the fol-
lowing well-known gentlemen. Mayor j.
