The County Road*.
Id the article published in the Chronicle,
over the signature of “Tax Payer,” we have
been assured there are only five mis'akes
altered.
1. The '*bridge recently pieced over
Spirit Creek” was built by tho road bauds
employed by Judge UvY, uuder the super
vision of Mr. Rhoocs.
2. “When the question of letting out the
roads was agitated, the Judges of the In
ferior Court decided adversely to letting to
contractors’’— why T Because of “the high
price demanded." That is true. But the
assertion of “Tax Payer” that “the highest
price demanded was 14,000," is untrue. We
have seen the bids—-one for SIO,OOO, and
the other for $12,000.
S. “The Court decided to hire tho hands,
overseers, and Superintendent, and appoint
one of their number as Commissioner.”
There are no overseers. Mr. Johnson was
appointed Superintendent, at $2.50 per diem,
actual working days, bo feeding himself and
furnishing his own horse.
4. “Judge Levy, as Commissioner, gets
$1,000.” . Not so. He is paid at the rate of
SI,OOO per year for managing the public
roads, attending to the relief store, and
looking after the poor-house aud paupers
generally—which consumes all of that
gentleman’s time.
5. "The contractors consolidated their
bids and agreed to furnish everything, and
put the roads in good order for $3,000.’’
This has already been denied as above, aud
the dental is reiterated—tho assertion of
"Tax Paver" that "Judge Levy was placed
in possession of the bid,” to the contrary
notwithstanding.
Mr. "Tax Payer” is very much surprised
at his own estimate : "thus we have a total
for working the roads of $8,000” for a
whole year. What will be his unutterable
astonishment at the assuraneo that "work
tng the roads” from June 6, 1866, to Jan
uary 7, 1867—only six mouths—cost the
county (as the records will prove) $lO,-
734.66!
As the Chronicle published the article vs
"Tax Payer,” of course it will be fair
minded enough to give its readers at least
an abstract of this rejoinder.
Our Public School-..
The best interests of the public require
the payment of sucli compensation to
instructors ol youth as will form an induce
ment to competent persons to make Teach
ing a profession for life, and to qualify
themselves for it in the best manner, in
stead of being, as it is with many, a tem
porary resort until something better turns
up. But great care should be taken to
secure the best Teachers which these
salaries will command, instead of continu
ing and increasing the pay of inferior
ones—otherwise there will Ire no increase
of efficiency.
The common idea that almost anybody
who has learned to read passably will do
to teach a primary school, has been ex
ploded. Other qualifications than those
of a merely literary and scientific charac
ter are required for the successful manage
ment of a school, and especially of a
school of beginners—of young children
just commencing the unfoldment of their
mental and moral powers. There must
be not only a knowledge of what is to he
taught, but an aptness to teach—a ready
ability to adapt one’s self to the childish
mind, so as to lead it on, step by step;
and withal, a power to interest, direct,
and control young minds; to secure and
hold their affection and respect; to make
the school room, notwitstanding its tasks
and restraints, the most pleasant and
attractive place the child is acquainted
with. There must be predominant over
all a love of children, a ready sympathy
with their thoughts and wants, and an
ability to take, for the time being, the
parent’s place to them.
As we Predicted.
We find the following in the Macon
Journal & Messenger —which speaks for
itself:
“ The Metropolitan Record. —Our people
will have an opportunity, during Mr. Mul
laly’s stay in Macon, of SUBSCRIBING to
this staunch and sterling journal. To say
any words of recommendation for it now
is entirely superfluous. Its record is well
known, and thoroughly appreciated. Mr.
Mullaly can be found to-day at Byington’s
Hotel.”
doing on a Visit.
The Savannah Republican , of Saturday,
contains the following:
The Vigilant Fire Company of Augusta
some time ago, notified Captain Charles J.
White, Secretary of our Savannah Fire
Department, of their intention of visiting
this city and participating in the l, parade of
the 22d ” Captain White answered the
letter, stating that the Department parade
was not until the first of May. To this the
Secretary of the Vigilant company returned
answer that his company would not visit
the city. Within a day or so Captain
White received a letter from a Committee
appointed at a meeting of the Augusta
company, staling that his communication
was perfectly satisfactory to the members
of the company, and that the action of the
Secretary was taken altogether on his own
responsibility, and without consulting the
company.
The Vigilant will probably visit this city
on the first of May, and be the guests of
our Savannah boys. We are glad that the
entente cordiale between the two depart
ments is thus restored to its former footing.

Chronic Catarrh,
A Clergyman in a neighboring village had
suffered for many years, from an obstinate
catarrh, which had resisted all attempts for
a cure. The obstruction and discharge
from the nose was constant, destroying
both taste and smell; anil at times even
interfering from the change of voice, with
his public ministrations. Almost in des
pair, he commenced the use of Humph

THE CONVENTIONS.
GEORGIA.
Atlanta, February 15.—A motion to
reconsider paragraph fifth, seotion first, of
tho Legislative Committee’s report, whioh
was adopted yesterday, was defeated—yeas
62, nays 62—the President casting in the
negative. It provides that no person hold
ing offico under the United State or State
Executive, Justices of the Inferior Court
or of tho Peace, aud officers of the Militia,
shall be eligible to the Legislature, and
that no member of the Legislature shall be
appointed by the Governor, or elected by
the Legislature to any office ol emolument.
The Finance Committee was authorised
to negotiate for a loan to pay tho expenses
of tho Convention.
So much of a section, passed yesterday,
as disfranchises persons convicted ot lar
ceny, was reconsidered and stricken out.
General Meade left for Florida last
night.
Mississippi.
Jackson, Miss., February 15. —The Bill
of Rights came up as the special order. First
section referred to a Select Committee. As
submitted, it guarantees the right of suffrage
to all persons, irrespective of race, color
sex, or anything else. Seven succeeding
sections were adopted. They embody no
new ideas.
The member sent to Vicksburg to confer
with Gen. Gillem in regard to taxes was in

delegates were in Convention to-day, large

be appointed by the. Governor, to be con

attended, who proposed measures of con
ciliation—not agreed to. Two of tho minori
ty joined the body in session
A mass meeting of negroes held this p. m.,
in Capital square, addressed by colored and
white speakers ol Billings’ faction. The
speakers seemed to have given up the
struggle for the mastery of the Convention,
and propose to fry the issue at the ballot
box.
VIRGINIA.
Richmond, February 15.— 1n Conven
tion, the oyster question was tabled, and
also the Georgia resolution asking Congress
to loan the South $30,000,000.
Nothing else of interest was done.
Judge Underwood, to-day, remanded
Churchwell Combs to the custody ot the
military. He decided that Congress, which
was the war power, has not yet declared
peace; and the country being in a state of
armistice, the civil courts have no right to
take prisoners out of military custody.
The case goes up to the Supreme Court,
General Schofield issued several orders
to-day about registration. One orders a
new registration in Richmond March 2d ;
another provides that where voters in the
State have changed their residence since
the last registration they may register in
the district where they reside. The third
is for the guidance of registration boards,
and directs that where a person has held a
United States office and then voted volun
tarily for secession, he is disfranchised.
The holding of an U. S. office is defined as
having held an office to which the holder
was appointed by the President.
Courts of law or heads of departments
those who have held county or town
offices, “created for the administration of
justice”—are disfranchised, but not tlieir
deputies. The Executive pardon does not
remove disfranchisement..

down,
The use of die house for a lecture was
objected to by negro and white delegates,
on the ground that on a former occasion

ilege of the same floor with the whites.
These are regarded as declarations in favor
of social equality as well as political.
SOUTII CAROLINA.
