Financial and Business Manaokh.
Oflleial Paper ol the ?t?te and
of OrauKehurg County.
SATURDAY, MAY 31,1873.
Edneation m Ith Um.
i 'How lamentably many whitg^ men in
this county are unublo to" riteT^tTTfcijfci
names
! Village lifo with its small ?<Jon'
fiue of duties aud itb uarrow world of
gossip shuts U3 out from contact with
the rude ignorance that prevails to an
alarming extent.
In so!iic parts of this County families
and clans of mcu lead lives as savage,
untamed and heathcu as the ludiauu uf
the far Weft.
In other parts, witchcraft flourishes
? and the witch doctor plys a paying trade
out of the credulity, sup.rstitiuu and
ignorance of the ucigbburs.
Of course this is not general. Hut
the fact of such gross and barbarian
ignorauco existing near and around us is
startling.
Education is too generally neglected.
School houses are wautiug or are c'oscd.
Teachers arc out of employment or arc
cling out a miserable life upon a salary
which is not even courteous thanks for
their labor.
The fau!t is with tho people. The
School system is adequate lor the cdu
cation of all the indigent children of the
County. Compulsion is uccded to deal
with the stolid and insensate ignorance
and bullishness that declines to send
the children to school.
Let the School Authorities, let the
pastors, let tho friends of education sec
to it that the law is enforced. Every
boy and girl mast go to school s"
m arty mouths in each year.

??The men of 1770 rose up against'
England .rather tban longer remain the
wretched victims of her 'navigation
laws,' whose sole objoct, in twenty-two
separate acts, was to monopolize the
trade and commerce of the colonies. We
suffor teniold greater Wiong* than tho
colonies ever endured from a precisely
similar system of monopoly; we have
a retnbdy, by peacejiblo revolution at

we seem to luck both tho intclligruco
and the courage to use it."

New8 Summary.
The Russians are successful in their
Asiatic expedition. At last accounts
(hey have not only taken Khiva wit It -
out much loss, pul have also secured the
Khan as prisoner. A London paper
states that there is. talk in St. Petersburg
iinw of the annexation el' Bokhara and
Khokaud as well as Khiva. The Kus
sian press represent that Turkey is tot
tcring with uiisgovcrumctit, and predict
that a tio?e is coming when lier troubles
will culminate, and Ilossia will then be
ubta to viudicato her interests.
One of the leading officers of the
Cuban insu: ruction, Gen, Agram onti,
was recently killed In IUI engagement,
which will prove a serious blow to the
revolutionists. t)ue account BtatCS that
General somtuitied suicide on the liuld

President Thiers has made- several
changes in his Cabinet, aiid has thereby
apparently strengthened his hold oil the
Assembly. The programme of the new
Ministry is to organize the Republiu by
she eoaelmeral of oonsertativc laws, and
wholly reject the Itadiclil [dans.
The fiuaneial crisis in Victim has
resulted in the failure of over one hun
dred firms, eau-ing coiwtcrirationf in all
ibfuncto* of business. The son of a
wealthy banker committed suicide on
account of bis losses, and the citizens
generally arc greatly depressed.
