Ol It ITHM( Nt'IIOOLN. ith the lest intentions possible, our legislatures and public men have erred in their eilorts to establish a system of pub lic schools m North Carolina. 1 They have started at the wrong end The whole weight and force of public opin : 1 1 . . ion ouui 10 nave own concentrated on the University.. Michigan built a univer- .. : t .. :.. 1 '1 .1 . ... 1 ! . Mi in 1 iic niiutrriit'Hs ociore mere was a single public -school 'of- lower grade. She pivo it lands and money. It grew and be came L'nat. This is recent. (Jo back. Massachusetts Colony started' Harvard, and Connecticut began Yale at Saybrook before there wus a system of schools. He gin at the fountain. The University is the fountain whence healing waters flow. The University is the Pharos giving light far out over the dark waters of ignorance. The University is the training school. Kducale the teacher first. Nothing worthy and abiding cau be accomplished with in--efficient instructors:. We but perpetuate ignorance. The University is the great Central Sun of the educational universe. .Make the University what it ought to be, 'and the schools will be what they ought to be. This is our faith, but 2. Even with a great University it will be slow work getting the school system in to shape unless public opinion broadens suf ficiently to admit of large measures re quiring (1) better men and (2)' more ex penditure. Hotter men come with better pay. The people have been educated by timid politicians into believing that they cannot stand an increase of taxation for educational purposes. Sound policy dic tates a liberal course as regards the schoobv Hotter reduce the salaries of State officers and give the. difference -between the old and the new salaries to the common schools. North Carolina cannot .afford to be nigard in this matters For the sake of posterity the State must do a great deal, more for her children than she has ever done. Organization is as necessary in schools lis in anything else. There has never been system enough. Up North, in the brisk current of life, the schools are not forgot ten, but are looked after with the same care as business matter?. With less money we naturally can accom plish less. Uut we ought to do the best we can with the means at command. We ought to have a school government in this State, located centrally, which would put new life into the schools now in existence and as rapidly as possible start new ones. 1 ts care should be over every county, and over both races. It should have power given to. it to organize schools wherever they may.be needed. A Board of Public Education separate from the political gov ernment a small, compact board, com posed of three gentlemen of culture, judg ment and experience, two of whom ought to be teachers or ex-teachers and one a sound headed business man would do wonders for education, we do not doubt, in a comparatively short time. The chair man might be General Superintendent of Public Schools, with a salary equal to th (JovernorV,. In addition to the State' Board we would suggest the appointment of county boards of three, the chairmen of which might act as county superintendents with salaries about equal to the average of 1 the teachers' salaries. This machinery after it has been started by the Legislature should be kept perfectly free from politics. In the second article on this subject which we purpose writing objections to an enlargement of our school operations will be considered. SOCIAL. EQUALITY. jiiK ou iias witeu paneiiiiy siuce Friday morning: for Judge Russell or some one authorized to speak for him to attempt an excuse or a palliation of his language employed on Thursday evening last at the Market House, in this city. Of course vie knew that "thoughts that breathe and words that burn" from the pit below, like those ut tered in that harangue were not uncharacter isticof Daniel L. Russell. His record as Judge and politician show that he has been all the while in full sympathy with the social ' equality theories of the worst men in his party. In hjs decision in the Opera House cases he went out of his way to parade these views in a manner offensive to his race irrespective of party. Bqt Inhere was a feeling entertained by some over-charitable souls that Judge Russell's nominal connection with the so-called National Greenback party in dicated a change for the bettor in his senti ments. J It seems, however, from his own explicit utterances on the stump that he is m o 1 : i 1 : 1 1 : . as socially and politically radical as he ever was. Indeed, when we consider the cir cumstances, we are ted to regard Judge Russell as more obooxious to the white men of this District and State than hereto fore. Remember that this speech was sot delivered in the heat of a! political cam paign, but was the matured product of his brain. True it was his cry of victory, but a cry not raised until passion had an op portunity to die out and reason to resume her throne. Deliberately he tells his audi ence mostly composed of negroes that he desires to see established in this country "absolute and eternal social and political, "equality among the race" II is asser tions that he stood by the' Greenback plat form faithfully go for nothing in the face of the avowal of such infamous Radical doctrine as this. The little game between himself and the other Radical leaders might as well be stopped. Nobody is de ceived. Those who place confidence in a man who says he is in favor of absolute and eternal social equality " pay ' their money and take their choice." They know what their man holds politically, and if they can swallow him we and everybody else ought to be satisfied." A DIHTIXGfjlHIIKD HOREIIEAD Mr.stephe ns, of Ceorgia, about as near ly represents Southern sentiment now as he represented it i during the war while he was paralyzing the arm of the adminis- ! tration. He has intellectual power, and this gives him weight in the country. Rut his greatest prominence is due to his men tal idiosyncrasies and his physical insig nificance. MrStephens is fond of notori ety To be considered uu original man, Mr. Stephens would discuss questions of celestial polity with the Archangel Oa briel if he could meet him. The great Georgian poses on his breadth and altitude in politics. He is a Grant admirer, be cause he thinks it is a magnanimous chin..-, for a Southern Democrat to speak good words of his enemy. He is a Hayes inai.i because most of hi friends are anti-Hayes men. Mr. Stephens is never so well pleased as when his friends censure and his ene mies praise his conduct or -opinions. Of course he is always right', whether acting with the Democrats or with the Republi cans. He is the only infallible man in the country. Nobody except Stephens is a statesman nobody but Stephens loves the South nobody other than Stephens is a full-habited patriot. In all this teeming land Georgia only produces a wise man. Great is Alexander II. Stephens, of Geor gia. - - PERSONAL. PARAGRAPHS. Wendell Phillips, who declares he is the champion of the poor, loans tliem money at twelve per cent, interest.

Respectable People Accused of a Triple Murder. Wilmington, Del., Noy. 21. Accounts of a murder . perpetrated yesterday near Middletown, in tiis county, have jast ben received. Early yesterday morning a colored man, bleeding and covered with mud, and with two bullet holes in his head, dragged him self to a house near Vandyke's on the Queen Anne and Kent railroad, near the Delaware line, and told a horrible story, the substance of which is as follows : At Chestertown, Md., lives a woman named Dodsou, who is in good circumstan ces, and has two attractive daughters; who have received cousiderable attention in so cial circles. Some time ago the daughters became the mothers of illegitimate children. The lat ter were killed and the. colored man mentioned above (James Jones) buried them, and threatened with death if he ever reveled the crime. A few days ago, how ever, he told the story to a colored woman. On Tuesday two men, 'named Vincent and Newcome, cousins of the girls, caught Jones, and locked him up on the Dodson farm, promising to do him no harm if he would leave the State forever. This he agreed to do, and Tuesday night the two men, accompanied by Mrs. Dodson, started with the negro in a carriage for Delaware. About midnight, in a dense woods near Vandyke's Station, this side of the Dela ware line, the men took Jones and prepared to kill him. He begged hard for life and promised never to return, but the women told the men to kill ' him, and done , with it. They fired, both bullets taking effect in the negro's head, and then dragged him a short distance into the woods and left him for dead. He revived, however, sufficiently to reach a farm house, when a magistrate was sent for and his declaration taken. He cannot live. The two men have been arrested and the women will be arrested to-day. The above dispatch was shown toapt. W. B. Bnrchinal, of Chestertown, Deputy Collector of the port of Baltimore, who says he does not now a family of the name of Dodson at or near Chestertown.. He knows two meiv named Newcomb, who are farm laborers at Chestertown, and also a colored man named Jnes. He thinks the wounded man or those taking his state ment have mistaken the locality of the al leged outrage. Baltimore Bulletin.' A youig gentleman of Sheen, near Man-" Chester, offered, with her mother's consent, to help a pupil teacher with her lessons in the morning. He said she would not be awake early enough, and she offered to tie a string to her foot and let the end hang out of the window, so that if she over slept herself he might pull it. He was up the earlier and pull tne cord, and the Rev. T. E. Heygate, holding that this was an "act of impropriety,'" refused him the sacrament.. The Bishop of Lichfield declines to inter fere, as" it aoes not seem that the case ad mits of any authoritative decision. A correspondent in Land and Water lately maintained that tobacco will serve as an' antidote in cases of strychnine poi soning.' He relates the case jof a dog, poisoned with strychnine, whose life was saved by forcing a plug of tobacco down his throat A Judge Unseemly Condstet- A movement is on foot among certain members of the Washington Bar, the ob- j ject of wich is to collect evidence and pre- j pare charges against Jndge Hnmphreys, of the District Supreme Court, with a view of procuring his impeachment daring the next session of' Congress. This will not j be the first time that the impeachment of this Judge has been urged upon the House ; of Representatives. Two years ago . the i judiciary Committee of the House, began an investigation of the case, but nothing j was accomplished. No complaints affect- ing his integrity as a magistrate have been j heard, but the general sentiment of the j community i$nkx a man who almost daily appears on tbebench in an intoxicated ! f condition is not - fit to occupy a judicial position.

Louiftiana Recreants. Charges affecting the official action of!! several of the prominent federal officers in j the State of Louisiana in connection with the late elections ha verbeen made. Among those mentioned as implicated are the col- ; lector of the port of New Orleans and the ; United State marshal. The charges with reference to these two officials have te some extent taken formal shape, and are understood in substance to be that both j their passive and active aid was given to ' nromote the success of the Democratic 1 ticket, aud iu the case of the marshal that there was a purposely lax administration of the Unfted States election law It Js not known that there is any provision of the Revised Statutes -which makes it a punishable offense tor federal officers to support Democratic candidates in the same manner as other citizens may do, and it is doubtful if even so much as this can be proved against the two officials named. The intimations as to the neglect of duty in the cae of.the marshal will be invests gated. It seems as if the country at large is never to have a respite from the inces sant Louisiana squabbles.

The State Executive Committee congratu lates the Democratic-Conservative party of North Carolina upon the result of the recent' Congressional elections at the North. These elections clearly indicate three things which are of consequence to us : First, that the pec pie of this country are dissatisfied with the Republican party and are unwilling for the Republican leaders to afflict us longer with thdr ruiuous measures and fraudulent prac tices. 8econd, that the National? do not meet with popular favor, and, as a separate organi zation, have utterly failed to impress them selves upon the country ; and lastly, that the star of the Democratic party is still in the ascendant, and the people are looking to that party as the only one capable of restoring, prosperity to the country, and able to admin ister the government on those Constitutional and ju6t principles, which are essential alike to the happiness of our citizens and to the perpetuity of our institutions. Thus in the elections held in eight States the Republicans have lost twelve members of Congress; the Nationals have elected four ; and the Demo- -crats have elected twenty -three, aud have gained seven. These facts demonstrate that the people' in tend to invest the Democratic party with the full control of the National Government. The Senate of the next Congress will be Democratic by a considerable majority, and it is only necessary for the Democrats of the South to remain steadfast in their allegiance to eur or ganization, and our triumph will be complete. It is for us to determine whether the banner on which are inscribed Reconciliation , Home Rule and Financial Reform, shall trail in the dust, or shall be borne on to victory. Every consideration ;of interest, ot policy and of patriotism then urges us to prepare Imuiesiately for the approaching political struggle. Be assured, fellow-eitizens, that without preparation, it will be impossible to achieve success. Let us i.ot by our apathy, our luke warm ness and indifference postpone the accession to power of that party Which alone has been able to check Republican corruption and to arrest the progress of oer government towards a centralized despotism. Let us be steadfast in our devotiou to prin ciple, true to our organization and endeavor by every means to discountenance those inde pendents and disorganizers who .oppose' our worthy standard-bearers freely and fairly chosen by the Democratic party in Convention "assembled. In particular do we desire to repeat what we have so oiten urged the necessity of i 7 His the town thorough local organization shp committees who are charged with the most important of all party duties. To them is committed the duty of supervising the election, and of devising means to bring out every Democratic voter to the polls. They oughtto meet frequently and advise and take counsel together how best to promote the for tunes of that party, ou whose success depends 60 largely the prosperity of themselves and of their posterity. Jn every township, in every neighborhood, ther ought to be appointed a committee of active, efficient, and prudent party men, who will undertake to see that every Democrat in the precinct comes to the polls and casts bts ballot for our nomlneee. We, therefore urge this upon the township committees; and If in any township it is ne glected, we appeal to our Democratic friends there to send their conveyances for all their neighbors who otherwise might not attend the polls. Let it be clearly understood in every locali ty that he who fails to vote tbr our nominee, gives half a vote to the Republican party, and that the Conservative who easts his vote for an independent Is taking the surest means to break up and destroy the only party which can give relief to our afflicted country. We warn our fellow-citizens that great ends can not be accomplished except at the costof some inconvenience, and oiteu-through the sacrifice of our personal preferences ; and we appeal to every man who has the good of the people at heart to give a portion of one day to his country, and subordinating his individual preferences, cast his ballot for the nominee of the Conservative party.

(Nrw York World.) Desrve the support of all Southern readers. (New (York Scn.) Wc wish success to this interesting enter prise , (WeldonNews:) It is a magazine of merit aud we wish it much success. (Chronicle and Constitutionalist.) It richly deserves the cordial support of all our people. (Biblical Recorder.) It is printed in large, clear type and is a credit to the State. (Greensboro Patriot.) It Is ably edited, handsomely printed, and gives promise of being a very, very interesting publication. (Elizabeth Citt Economist.) Altogether creditable. - Its contributors are firat-cla6s and its mechanical and typographical execution excellent. (Billsboro Recorder.) Its list of contributors is an an able one and if sustained, will ensure the permanent success of the enterprise. (Wilmington Post.) It is a first-class literay magazine, and one that the people of this city should be proud of and patronize, as well as the people of the whole state. (Raleigh Observer.) It is needless to say we wish it sucoess, and that we look forward with pride, as well as pleasure, to the r -.suit of the enterpise as one that will reflect honor upon the State. (Oxford Torchlight.) The typographical execution of the magazine is very fine, and in point of appearance, con tents, and indeed in all respects it is a publi cation which must commend itself to the public. - (Graham Gleaner.) It gives promise of being eminently worthy of public patronage. No commendation of A ours would equal a simple statement of the 1 ... ifi. .- r .v. contributors, which ,we give as an evidence of of the 'worth of the periodical. (Farmer and Mechajoc.) Here we have a rich bill of fare from South ern writers, catered by a Southern lady and printed by Southern' printers, on Southern paper. Ye who bewail the lack of Southern literature, and home-fostered talent, shall this enterprise live, and expand i (Wilhov Advance.) The magazine isVell gotten up. The sub ject matter is varied and entertaining, while its typographical appearance is a model of neatness, and reflects the highest credit upon the ezqulkhe taste . and excellent judgment that suggested and diverted Its consummation. (Norfolk Virginiax.) This publication appeals to the people of the South for a staple support. It richly merits it aud we feel will receive it. We know of no , Southern literary venture that has exhibited so much merit, united with an evidence of management that must win for it a position in the ranks of magazine literature and hold it (Petersburg Index & Appeal.) The South-Atlantic has this merit over any of its predecessors In the same arena, that its contents are solid, though not heavy, and that no room appears to have been intended in it for productions of a trashy and frivolous character: While it continues to adhere to this rule, it will hae every claim on Southern and general support, and we sincerely trust it will receive it.
