The Charleston JVevfs cfc Courier
talks oat m meeting after this sort
as to an educational qualification :
"But the eieht box law. thouch it has
served its purpose well, is an evasion after
aiL it would be far better and far manlier,
in our opinion. to eraso the difficult? sau&re-
ly at once and amend the constitution of the

and therefore in the Electoral College, Ad
mitting that this will be so. although other
o tales wnicn impose sucn a qualification
lose no representation of any account, it is
oeiier oy r&r to surrender a Congressman

and give them a bad same abroad, and so
hinder more seriously than the thoughtless

We record with pleasure a recent
act of the President elect. Personal
friends in Indiana purposed to pre
sent him with an outfit for his
stables when President. He firmly
declined, saying:
"Although I have sot a fottuse. I must
refuse to accept it, bt cause I believe that
no man in the position of President of the
United states cn afford to be under pecu
niary obligations in matters connected with
bis office even to his intimate friends.
If true, highly creditablo. Blame
or Grant would have taken all.
Harrison appreciates his friends.
He likes the New York Sun, that
ought not to be allowed to come into
any Democrat's house. A special

No man of sense ever doubled it.
That was a sensible, able commu
nication that "Uivis Privatus" pub
lished in the last Rockingham Rocket.
We shall copy from it. Hosv true
this is:
"In defeat men are apt to become cow-
ardB apologists fcr the wrens."
Character is revealed under de
feat. Men of vasciliaimg principles
and convictions always hedge and
faultfind when they get beaten at the
polls. Stand like an anvil, is the
right way.
The Stab strongly favors a tax-
paying qualification. No tax receipt
no vote. It is an outrage that a ne
gro that pay 8 not one. cent of tax
should have a hand in taxing any
man who does not bear his part of
the public bnrden.

Dr. Battle's Lecture.
The Young Men's Christian Associ
ation being disappointed in securing
the Opera House, will have Dr.
Battle's lecture in the lecture room
of Graee M. E. Church next Tnesday
night. While no entrance fee will be
charged, admission will be by tickets
which can be procured at the stores
of Messrs. Yates, Heinsberger, and
Louis H. Meares, on Monday and
Tuesday.
It is the purpose of the Association
to have all its lectures as free as pos
sible without conflicting with its in
terests, so it has been thought
advisable, as there will be no charge
for admission, to give those so dis
posed an opportunity to contribute
on that night. Still, it Is earnestly
desired that these contributions shall
be perfectly voluntary.
Dr. Battle always t enlivens his
lectures with bright ideas and a
pleasant occasion may be looked for.
