Cl)t Il)tttlottf ObBerotr. CHAS. R. JONES, Editor and Prop'tor. SATURDAY, MAT J.S, 1882. . POPULAR EDUCATION. 1 1 toan'atl lnlthenat id I 6fSc6mmdtt8ciJ;tmoej r i ' LiA k tha MmmAn BC&d&SYStED rrn n ! TV. has been suDDlemented in the W v m y mm House ; by a bill recommended by the committee, on T education which pro- poses to appropri-th4'iufabff 5(Xooa 000, $10,000,000 a year to be expended for five years, apportioned among the ; J 8ereral BUtes h the bash 4f literacy. It differs from Senator Logan's bill in that Logan proposes to devote certain proceeds bf the Internal revenue tax to that purpose, while the House bill pro poses a direct appropriation of 650,000, 000. When It comes up for discussion, while it will have its friends, it will also have its enemies. This question of popular education is becoming an important one, and espe cially to the South. It is a problem that is difficult to handle, and yet one that must be met At this late day there is no question as to whether there should be a system of popular education or not ; that has been settled conceded by all and is no longer a matter of discus sion.' The only question that remains is how it is to be done, and what is the best way to effect it and bring about the results that all desire. In, the. North where the system of common schools has been in operation for years ,the main difficulties have been overcome, and the machinery, un der the direction of skilled managers is working smoothly and satisfactorily. But in the South it is different Here the whole order of things that former ly prevailed wa overturned by the re. suits of the War, which left the States in chaos, their governmental systems ruined, and their people impoverished. In addition to all this four millions of slaves were emancipated, and with out any previous training those of them old enough were enfranchised by act of the government and at once, be came clothed with all the rights, pow ers and prerogatives of citizens. In some States they are in the majority, and in all wield a political power po tent for good or evil as it may be di rected. Deficient as thev are in infor mation it is not nor cannot be expect ed that they should act or vote intelligently on matters of publi policy, and it is no matter of surprise that they are led and used bf designing and corrupt men, to" further their own ambition. Itis useless to talk about elevating politics to the plane of reform that some seek while this powerful mass, in benighted igno rance, stands ready to be wielded by the mercenary and corrupt leaders against it. If they are to continue voters, to decide by their ballots the policy and destiny of the States and country in which they live, they should be made intelligent voters, that they may be able to judge of issues for them selves and have some conception of the importance of the trust vested in them. - It must not be understood that we wish to convey the idea that illiteracy is confined to the colored race in the South. Far from it It exists to a fearful extent among the whites, but if the whites alone were to be educated it would be comparatively an easy mat ter, and could be satif actorily accomp lished by the States themselves with out outside aid, but the number to be educated, including the blacks, makes it an undertaking of too much magnitude to be successfully handled by the South ern States at the present time with the resources at their command. Hence government aid becomes a necessity, a fact that is recognized by thinking peo ple North and South. Apropos to this we conclude this article with an ex tract which we flip from the New York correspondence of the Fayette- Examiner: The editor of this Boston Journal of Education has recently traveled through several Southern States, as I nave heretofore mentioned, and has thus had his eyes opened upon some points that would become plain to oth er intelligent Northern men if they but see for themselves instead of pin ning their faith to the malignant sto ries of party politicians who ride into office upon them. In a long article in its last issue it says "that the ballot without educa tion in a country like ours, is the most hideous mockery of Republican insti tution, the death's head crowned with . flowers and veiled with gorgeous drape ry at our Fourth of July festival of free dom. If the history of the Anglo Saxon race that" dominates the British Empire and the American Bepublic teaches one thing without mistake, it is that such a people cannot be expected to resist the temptation to wickedness and tyranny presented by a great body . of ignorant childish, and feeble people, .whether clothed with the franchise or , left without it" It is easy to dream that the freedman of the South,' having received the greatest boon ever bestow ed in one generation on any race, in the double gifts of freedom and the ballot, will spring up a full-fledged ' American citizen, always bound to vote right We are just now waking up to the convic tion that when such a Dody of voters, fifty per cent, wholly,, and ninety per cent practically, illiterate, is set up to Jovern an American' State, such un ortunate commonwealth falls inevita bly into the hands of a "ring," and gives civilization itself the go-by. The colored vote today is cast with great unanimity against temperance, in favor of repudiation of State debts, and in hundreds of communities, is baffling the efforts of the wisest and the best for the sound education of the children. It is not wonderful that this should be, or any way discouraging or 'specially disreputable, as far as these poor' peo ple are concerned. But it is strange that half the Union, and that the most ' enlightened half, should iust toe wa ' - king up to the' fact that these things will re main until this dense ignorance and incapacity for responsible citizen ship shall be overcome by a vigorous - system of training in good schools, moral churches, and Christian homes. - To this conclusion the upper strata of Southern society has fully come, and now implores" the1 country - to come to the aid of-sudozea of .these great States . in their battle against rj'l the . ower vside -of their society for the uplif tihgof "American citizen ship itself. And then the party or pub- ,:lic man that turns a deaf ear to Hhis " - call, f rom -any-conaideration .of . sup ; f posed political! advantage, will find it- J iseifi-in a time-ttpidly coming;to the . f i grip ? of ;au , outraged; national public : . opinion. -which wifldisposefof every X":" hostile influence that dares to get across tj tLs road and defy the neonle's march to . -j nationalpurirr, instructed liberty ud. responsible party, .w zm ' ' A ( Seriatof Ben Hill i meets rfdd fate re ".: h -is :i ezsapi cosapiauir ju nave uvea juty , and X iUEDOsfl'no' mas erer .Jig SliY& fifty-eight happier yewi It 'xnay oe Deit UM mey oe ?4- AN HONOR WEIili BESTOWEDil C The North1olma3ledical"Assoc tion showed good judgment and a true appreciation of merit in the election of.

It is said that the amount of sawed lumber received last year at Chicago would girdle the earth at the equator with a floor one inch thick and fourteen feet wide, and that the lumber sawed in the three States of Michigan, Wis consin and Minnesota, in 1881, would make such a floor fifty feet wide. Chi cago is entitled to the floor. 'A writer in the Greensboro News, over the signature of J ustice, nomi nates Hon. D. F. Caldwell, of Greens boro, for congressman at large. Mr. Caldwell is one of the purest and most devoted of North Carolina's sons, and would make a faithful and zealous rep resentative if elected to that position. There are many able and deserving men in the State who would nil the position well, but none more earnestly devotedLto the welfare of his State nor more deserving than he. CONGRESS YESTERDAY. SHORT SESSION IN BOTH HOUSES. The Senate Passes the Intermediate Appellate Court Bill, while the House Passes the Geneva Award Bill and Winds Up with a Little Filibuster ing. Washington, May 12.

Valentine submitted a conference re port on the agricultural appropriation bill. The differences were slight and had been compromised. The report was adopted. Upon the question of precedence for bills a controversy arose and when the votes were taken no quorum voted. A call of the House showed the presence of more than a quorum, but the Demo crats refrained from voting and showed a disposition to fillibuster. This was kept up until a motion to adjourn prevailed.

THE BAPTIST CONVENTION MISSIONARY .WORK. ON The M. E. Conference Considers Re ports and Refuses to Legislate on the Use of Tobacco and Prohibit Wine in the Sacrament. Gkeenvtxle, May 12. At the mass meeting of the Baptist Convention last night in aid of. mission work in New Orleans, addresses were delivered by Dr". Landrum, of iNew Orleans, and Dr. Lansing1 Burrows, of Kentucky. At the close of his address Dr. Burrows made an earnest appeal for contribu tions to lift the church demands and succeeded in securing $5,000, a large part in cash. The convention to-day was opened with prayer by the Rev. W. B. Elkins, of South Carolina. The report of the committee on for eign missions recommending renewed diligence in this field was adopted. The usual devotional exercises were conducted at Jhalf-past 11 o'clock with H. K. Ellyson, of Richmond, Va., in the chair. Senator Brown, of Georgia, was pres ent, and at the special invitation of the convention made an address urging the great importance of the missionary work, and especially in China, and re ferring to the present as an essentially missionary age, with all the discoveries of science, the commercial intercourse of nations and the facilities for speedy travel and transportation, contributing to the great opportunities of the church in spreading the gospel, The report of the committee on the mission to the Chinese in .California, recommending increased appropria tions for work, was adopted. The afternoon session of the con ven -tion was consumed in hearing reports of various committees. The committee on European missions recommended increased appropriations. The committee on the home missions board recommended the removal of the board from Marion, Ala., to Atlanta, Ga., and the report was made the cial order for to-morrow morning. The night session of the convention was devoted to the subject of foreign missions. Nashville, May 13 The principal part of the day was spent in the Metho dist conference in the consideration of reports from committees. The question of electing six addi tional bishops was discussed, but no action was taken. The committee on temperance sub mitted a report, which was adopted, touching the ue of tobacco, in which they said: "While recognizing the (act that much evil grows out of the intem perate use of tobacco, yet we would recommend no special legislation on the subject" A paper was referred asking that this general conference take such action as will prevent the use of fermented wines in the sacrament of the Lord's supper. The report wa3 for non-concurrence, but would at the same time recommend to the people everywhere to be careful to procure the purest wines for this holy sacrament. The verdict of the Alabama confer ence, suspending Rev. A. J. Briggs in 1879, was to-day reversed by the general conference.
