from the old world to find III this

the highest degree of religious and
political liberty. The first they
did was to separate church and
state and incorporated it in the
fundamental law, and we should
see that which cannot be done

rectly and this great danger ever

The Republican Revival.

Several hundred colored people
attended the meeting at Barnwell
on Saturday. S. E. Smith of Aiken,
mail agent, was the first speaker.
He has been a candidate for Con-
gress and no doubt expects to be
again. His speech was along the
line followed by Republican speak
ers from '6S to '76. 1t was too bit
ter and extreme for the more
thoughtful ,colored people and
quite number have not hesitated
To say so. They think him large
enough to be a mail agent, but do
net consider him to be wise enough
to give good counsel or 60 to Con-
gress.
Ex-Congrossman George w.

of his speech was pretty mild, but
his attack on thu registration law

What 20 Teach i'm Our Public
Schools.

This week l snail take up the
first query suggested last week.
What shall ! teach in my school
is question which has come to
every teacher. There might be
volumes written on this question,
but we must put what we can in q
few paragraphs.
In the country we want the
school to do for the children what
is done for the stone in changing
it from the rude quarry rock to a
beautiful sculpture, what the ar
tist does for the blank, yes more,
we want the rude and blank
made beautiful and the dormant
made active. To know what to
teach we must have right concep-
tions of beauty in character and
activity of mind. And we know
that the sculpture never excels
the ideal, nor will the character
on1 ,,,ind -a,,"r-ov"nl : ho ;.aco. al,
ter which they are formed and
trained and by which the mind is
inspired. Now let us take Tenny-
sons ideal; be says:
sMy work shall answer, since
/ know the right and do it;
For man is not as God.
But then most Godlike being Host a
man."
Then to have right conceptions
of our ideal we must study God as
the sculptor studies the ideal sculp-
ture or as the artist studies and
compares the landscape. 1t is not
enough to study the ideal only, but
as the sculptor studies the nature
of the stone so we must study the
nature of children. That we may
be able to know what helps we
need. Or in other words what we
need to teach with. Books, just as
tools and all other apparatus are
not all equal in the accomplish
ment of the end for which they
were made.
There has been progress made in
every department of life, improve
ments on all kind of machinery
aud apparatus, so Oh school apa-
ratus the improvements have been
no less great. Therefore it is our
dutv to know what books are most
correct, which teach ideas. and
facts most clearly, and which can
be comprehended by the mind of
children most easily. All teach
ers who fail to picture the true
ideal in their mind, and who do
not use such books, apparatus,
ETC., as will build most rapidly
true character and promote best
the activity of the mind are to that
extent failures.
Hereafter l will give what ]
think to be the natural order OF
studies with which 1 will give the
books l think to be best for teach
ing, each of the several grades of
the different branches, taught in
our common country schools.

WALTER III. BLAND.

On Sunday night of this week, after
a lingering illness of many months
our friend Walter Bland entered into
that house not made with hands, eter-
nal in the heavens" Mr. Bland had
formerly been connected with the Lu-
theran church, but recently placed his
membership with the Presbyterian
church of this place. About year ago,
after having prepared himself for a
course in music, and expecting to
make himself an artist in that direc-
ton, he was anticipating in very
short time "Trip to New York where
he expected to enter one of the musl-
cal conservatories. But just at that
time he developed the symptoms OF the
illness which cost his life, and the doc
tors advised a trip to California.
While there one of the residents OF our
town received a letter from him, In
which he stated his perfect resigna-
ton and trust in Jesus. The letter
was one of great consolation and graf
iticatiun to his friends who read 1T.
After his return from California, he
spent some time in our town, as he had
made Edsetie.d his home for several
wears previous, and in the merciful and
tender goodness of God was spared To
visit his many friends and tell them
of his Western tour, and show them
the souvenirs which it had been such
pleasure to him to collect. Since his
removal to Johnston he gradually grew
worse until his illness reached its
consummation OH Sunday night.
But the grave has not won the vic
tory, and death had lost its sting, and
though the earthly hopes of his young
life have been blasted, yet how much
more ench ;nting to his now no longer
wearIed heart will be the strains OF
those ten thousand harps and voices
which continually ring their hallelu-
iahs around the throne Of the eternai
king, ''for be has Joined the mighty
chorus in hat brighter better cline
And whose is the name that through
all the ages of eternity shall be praised
and exalted by the hosts OF the heaven
ly, and the numberless saints of all ages
who in harmony meet, 'of all nations
and kindreds and people and tongues"
1t is the name Jesus. He is the object
of all alteration and HOMAGE and greti-
tude, in that He has said '"i hey shall
be mine, in that day when | make up
my jewels, and will spare them as g
man spareth his own son, that servetE
him."
"JeSus knows thy sorrow
Knows thine every care
Knows thy deep cOntritlon
Hears thy feebleSt prayer
DO not fear to trust him,
Tell him all thy grief
cast on him thy burden
He will bring relief
