It was most natura l th ere fore that t he Washin gton Light Infa ntry should h ave indulged th e h ope of th e earl iest revival of th e Acad emy, and it has used th e whole of its influence in se cu rin g this end.

T he t ime has g on e to recount t he p ast of the South Carolina M ilitary Acad emy . That past has bee n writt en and has bee n reh earse d . The birth of th e Ac ademy , in r 843; its care er for m o re than on e -fifth of a cent u'ry; its s uspension in 186 5, am id th e flam es, and th en th e shad ows of our defeated cause , all this is upon reco rd . How in th e beginnin g the ripe th o ught of Richard son gav e it inc eption ; how th e ge nius of J a mison mould ed it ; how the ju dg m ent of Jon es sustained it ; ho w t he earn es t lab ors of its corps of t ea ch ers de velop ed t he go odly fabri c; how the car eer of its sur vivin g son s has illu str ated it ; hoiv th e blood of its h ero ic dea d has mad e it in me mor y cons ecrat e forev er : th ese are fact s th at ha ve pa ssed into hi story . Leav in g, th en, unr epe at ed her e th e tr ibut e du e to the rep r ese ntativ es, livin g and dead , of the Academy, passing by the �10 s tory of its rich fruitage in peace and in war, we turn to consider the era of its restoration . Twelve years had pass ed after the disbandment of · the Cadets of the South Carolina Military Academy, Arsenal and Citadel, befor e any organiz ed effort was made for it s revival, It was on the occasion of the first meeting of graduates, resident in and around Charleston, S . C., which led to the reorganization of the A ssocia tion, that the initiatory action was taken which culminate d in the re-establi shment of the South Carolina Military Acad emy. This memorable gathering was held in April, 1877, at the Charleston Hotel. From the of-fic minutes of the m eeti ng, ial signed by the Secretary, we ta k e the following extract : " I n response were present : to a publi shed call , the following graduates J. H. Swift, T. E. Strother, F. L. Pari<er, C. I. Walker, S. B . . Picke ns. B. B. Smith, W . E. Stoney, A. Doty and A. H. Mazyck. . Th e meeting was organized by Mr. J. H . Swift being called to t he chair, and Mr. A . H . Mazyck being requested to act as Secre tary. At the requ est of the chair, Co l. C. I. Walk er stated that the object of th e meeting was for the purpose of endeavoring to effect the re-o rga nization of th e Association of Graduat es of the South Carolina Military Academy, and for taking into consideration such meas ures as sh ould be deemed advi sable, looking to the recovery of th e Citad el, a nd to the re-opening of the Military Academy. Upo n motio n of Dr. Francis L. Parker, it was reso lved that a committee be appointed to corres pond with other graduates 11pon the subject of re-organization, to enquire into the present status of the Cita de l, a nd to consider such measures as might be brought before tho Legisla ture of the State at the next me eting, with a view to re -open the Academy . Th at this committee repo rt at a called m eeti ng, to be h eld at some future day, prior to a proposed general meeting of the graduates, t o be held in th e Fall. �11 The chair appointed tbe following committee under this resolution: P . F. Stevens, C. S. Gadsden, A. H. Mazyck, F. L. Parker, C. I. Walker, S. B. Pickens, S. C. Boylston." It is due to the truth of hi story to say that this was the first step in the direction of the restoration of the Academy. It is due to th e justice of history to place upon record the nam es of the graduates who were p· oneers in the good i cause. The work thus begun was energe tically followed up . The Association of Graduates and Ex-Cadets, upon its organization in December, I 877, addressed itself with earnestness to the scheme of restoration. Some there wer e with faith to project, some with hope to inspire , some with energy to exe cute . Generous friends, outside of the Citadel brotherhood , and yet in hea rty sympathy w ith it, lent their valued aid. And chief among them, that hi stor ic corps, whose patriotism gives rise to this occasion, uti lizi ng the eloquence of a distinguished gra duate of the Citad el, mad e, through him, a public plea for its revival. The Citadel m en, as they were call ed, labored with tact and vim. Tl1ey moulded public opinion. They invoked the influence of the press . They organized victory . The appeal was made to the L egis lature. Here the strong arguments of the le g is:ator der ived increased strength from the zeal ~orn of alum,nat memori es. The re s ult was that the casting vote of the Pr es id ent of the Senate, John D. Kennedy, saved th e bill of re-establishment, and thus, in January, 1882, the re-opening of the South Carolina Military Academy was decreed, The Board of Visitors, charg ed with th e high trust involved, acted with prompt vigor. Making the most of the meagre resources at command, the Board put the Citadel Building, marr ed and mutilated, upon its renovation. The academic organization was effected . The in stitution was equipp ed. By October 2d, 1882, it was made ready for its acad e mic bu siness, and on that da y the enrollme nt of cadets began . Soon the Academy was filled to its utmost capacity. �12 When one hundred and eighty (180) cad ets, re pr esenti ng every county in th e State, had been admitted, the authorities closed the door , and th e work of th e reviv ed Academy bega n. The old Citad el, new born, was its elf again . And thus we are brought to the qu es tion that it is proposed to make the subject of this address : What is th e distinctiv e work that is to be done under th e unfurled ensign of th e Citad el Academy ? \Vhat are th e peculiar fea tures of the syste m that underlies th e schoo l ? Should I succeed in g ivi ng a sati sfactory an swer to this query, then shall hav e acc0mplished my pur pose , which is not to seek oratorical p res t ige , but to ma gni fy thi s occasion by turning it , as far as in me lies , to a purpose use ful to th e Academy, and us eful to the State . \,Vhat is it, and what is it not? As to th e curriculum of th e Academy, it may be rema rk ed th at while this embraces a lib eral course in Mathem atics, Engineering, Drawing , Book-Keeping , . Physics, the Mod ern Langu ages, French and German, Belles Lettres , Et-hies and His to ry, it is conceded that the leading idea is to inv est with supreme im po rtan ce th e scie ntific element. The meaning of words is an important thing, but far more; important is th e m ea nin g of thing s. While, ther efo re , the Acad emy challenges not th e wisdom of other method s of men tal training and institutes no comp<1.risonbetw ee n the severa l sys tems whi ch seek by different roads to reach th e same goa l, it pref ers to accept the sugges tion of a profound think er · on the subject of education, who, at the clos e of an able argument, says ; "Thus to the question with which we set out-wha _ t knowledge is of the most worth ? The uniform reply i~science. Thi s is the verdict on all th e count s. For dir ect self-preservation or the maintenance of life and health, the all important knowledg e is-sc ience . For th at indirect self-preservation, which ,ve call gaining a livelihoo d, the knowledge of greatest valu e is-sc ience. For th e due discharge of pa ren tal function s the proper guidance is to be found only in-science. For that interpretation of nat ion al life, past and prese nt, wit h- r �13 out whicli th e citizen cannot right ly r~gulate hi s conduct, th e indisp ensable k ey is- sc ience. Alike for the mo st producti ve and the highest enjoyment of art in all its forms, the needful preparation is still- scie nce. And for purposes of discipline, intellectual, moral and religious, the mo st efficient study is, once more- sc ienc e.'' Whii e, how eve r, we hold with the same author , that in the family of knowledges, science, though the hou se hold drudge, is really high er in worth and beauty, than any of h er haughty sis ters; yet, after all, it is not its curriculum that mak es the chief characteristic of the South Carolina :Military Academy. It is freely admitted that our math emat ics, drawing , engine eri ng and book -keeping, physics, modern languages, and our literary food in general may be elsew her e obtained, and that we can lay claim to no exclusive monopoly the reo f What, th en, it may be asked, is th e mark ed feature of ou1· system of training? The answ er is, its bu si·,1ess features, its military di sc ipline. Such is th e economy of thi s w orl d, such the Divine arrangement, that th e highe st result s, mor al and m..1t r ial, can be e reac h ed only by busin ess method s~ Th e largest endowments of soul, the richest gifts of min d, the noble st aspirations of h ea rt, can be made available-can be utiliz ed only wh en the means is provid ed to apply them to a practical end. After all, much of ge nuin e success in life depends upon one's adaptability t o what is known as the bu siness of life. In vain uncommon sense if ta ct is wan t ing . In vain uncommon learning, if the man of letters cannot make his bread. In vain the poet's strai ns, the orator's silvery ton es , th e sc holar's flowers of speech; in vain eve n th e log ician's we ighty argument, if, aft er all, he nee ds t he power to fig ht successfully the ordinary battl es of the wor ld . H ence that trainin g cannot be anything but good for the young man, which throws him upon his own resources , and mak es him sel f-helpful and self- reliant; which makes .him syst ema tic , ready, vigilant , prom pt, and devcl~ps in him an abiding sense of duty and respon sibi lity. as well as a hi gh se nse of honor and a cheerful allegiance t o law . �When, in truth, the philosoµhy of genuine mil ita ry training is considered; wh~n its spirit is fairly interpreted, it will be conceded that the military and business training that marks the system in the South Carolina Military Academy, furnishes a strong argument in its behalf. And her e we do not wish to be misund erst ood. We do not propose to invest arms with undue significance. The profession of the soldier is a sad nec essi ty . Th e man , we concede, is ever to be regarded as high e r than the soldier, since soldiership is but an incid ent of manh ood. And yet, oniy a rosewa ter philanthropy would elimina te the sword as a factor in th e unso lved problems of State, with which th e world stands confronted . However much we may _ deplore it; however desirable to shun the bloody cost of war, and to throw into economic channels all the forces of th e Commonwealth, it is vain to close one's eyes to the fact that the world has not yet so far advanced as to do away with the arbitrament of war. The legislator may well magnify the po licy of peac e. ·\Nell-merited honor belongs to him who stills the waters of angry strife, and contributes to th e era of good will. And yet, well may that statesmanship be deemed uns ou nd and premature, which would, in anticipation of the mill en nium, beat all the swords of the country into ploughshares. Looking squarely into the face of the disjointed times, we may well accept the propo sitio n that no education is complete and generous, which do es no t fit one to p erfor m, skilfully and magnanimously , all the duties of the citizen, both in peace and in war. And yet, he who announced th is doctrine was the pen, and not th e 5word, of the Puritan cause in England. It was not the soldier, Cromwell; it was Milton, the scholar. As a proposition of the science of wealth, it is tru e that if the mon ey expended in the costly armaments of nations could be dire cted to man' s moral and religious elevation, we might dispense with war, and inau g urat e a halcyon era of uninterrupt ed peace. "Were half t h e power that fills the world ·with s01-ro'<v, vVere h alf the wealth best0wed on camps and courts, Given to redeem the hnrnan mind from error, T here were no nt ·cd of arse nal s and forts." �15 But inasmuch as enlightened humanity prefers thus far to contribute comparatively little to redeem the human mind from error. it may be conceded that the world is yet far from that millennial period when there shall be no need of arsenals, or citadels, or forts. But it is not as a war measure, that we bring military training and military discipline to the front in connection with the advantages of a system of education, such as the South Carolina Military Academy illustrates. Necessary as military discipline is to meet the contingencies that lawless men and lawless communities may at any time originate, it serves a nobler office when employed as an instrumentality in institutions of learning organized to prepare its members for the ordinary duties of civil life. When the military element is used as a means to an end, to give strength to the civilian, rather than to make the mere soldier; when used to form good habits, to establish sound character, to develop genuine manhood; then it is that, challenging criticism, it vindicates its utility. But closing the mind to its · nobler features, how prone are some men to associate the military only with the pomp of the parade, the roll of the drum, or the blare of trumpets! Let us , therefore, bring this question to the test of a fair analysis. What, we may ask, are military methods after all but efficient business methods? The man of business habits does his work promptly, systematically and thoroughly. What are promptness, system and thoroughness but crowning military qualities? Take the kings of business, the uncrowned, but sceptred monarchs of the mart, and you will find in one the prudence of a Fabius, and in another the daring of a Marcellus; in one Napoleon's power of rapid combination, and in another Wellington's well-balanced judgment. And in all you will find the head prompt to conceive and the hand quick .to execute. But coming nearer to the point at issue, the question may be asked, what are the elemen ts of this military discipline whereof we speak? It is not mechanical, as superficially alleged and charged. If the habit is mechanical, the principle underlying the habit �16 is moral and int ellec tual. Wh en th e tru e soldi er instinct ively mov es at th e word of comm a nd, th e sprin g of action may be found in the re ady reco g nit~on of leg itimat e auth orit ymakin g him find a dignity in obedi ence . Nor is military di sciplin e sla vi sh in its cha ract er. It is no .h ang man 's whip to hold th e w retch in ord e r. Found ed upon a sen se of duty , it mak es it s appeal to th e consci ence , and finds its respon se in a se lf-resp ectin g manhood . If , then, not mechanical or slavish, what ideas do es it involv e ? On e idea is self- contr ol. Th e military stud ent, as the s ubj ect of law , is call ed upon , from the nature of his obli ga tions, to practice "a prud ent , ca utious , self-control, " apt ly called, " Wi sdo m's root.'' To train h im for th e ex er cise of rul e over oth ers, it is esse nti al th at h e sha ll acquire se lf-command, since h e only can worthily enfor ce ob edi ence who ha s first learn ed how to obey. Anoth er idea is that ot eutire £m art£al£ty. Th e soldi er w ho p would com e up to th e full m easur e of his duty mu st do his part without fear, favor , oi: affection; reco gn izin g neith er friend nor foe in ca rryin g out th e mandat e of t he law. Another idea is that of courtesy and courage . Th e mili tary m an, in the stern and resolut e ex €cution of hi s tru st, is not requir ed to foreg o th e g race s of th e Chri stian gentleman. H e might well k ee p in view s uch a ch a ract e r as th e ga llant and acc ompli sh ed S idn ey, of whom it has be en said th at hi s lo ft y car ee r sugg es ts th e not ion of " hi g h thou g ht s sea ted in th e h ea rt of co urt esy. " On co.ming down to mode rn tim es, he might take for hi s mod el on e, call ed by an E nglis h writer, " ideal sol dier , patt ern Chri s tian, se lfless man and sta inles s ge ntl eman,' ' th e pee rless L ee, wh ose mod es ty, truth , and Chri st ian gift s, have mad e his p rai se to b e so un ded 111 " mou t hs of wises t censure.'' Th us we wou ld lift t he mili tary idea ab ove th e pla ne of wa r's pr ide , pomp , a nd circ um stan ce. Maki ng duty, self -control,just ice, cour tesy, a nd courage com p onent part s of mil ita ry disc ipline, it follows th at it s eftect upo n h uma nity is to str ength en th e will, to refine th e manner s, to ele vate the m oNrie-to promot e a ch aracter ;.it onc e gra ce ful, robu st, and �17 efficient, and to consummate a vi gorons and enlightened manhood. This, as we interpret it, is what military discipline effects. And this is what the South Carolina Military Academy proposes, in part, for its objective point. Th ese are the principles that the Citadel of old sought to impress upon its sons, and these same · true and tried maxims the new Citad el seeks to make the law of its b eing and the rule of its action. While it proposes to train its cadets to arms under a sense of what is due to God and country, yet it recognizes the fact that its main office is to prepare its graduates for the civil duties of life-to the end th at they may do yeoman's service in developing all the resources of the State . Leaving it to an institution like the United States Military Academy to mould soldiers proper, it is, as -we hold, the special mission of South Carolina's Militai-y School to make use of th e military element in order to effec t civ-il results-to rea r men more especially qualifi ed for the varied employments of civil life-qualifi ed to elevate the sta ndard of the publi :::sc hool system-qualified to direct our industrial deve lopm ent, to manage our farms, factories, and workshops, to carry efficient business habits into the liberal professions-qua lified for affairs of State-men equal, through the aid, if need be, of s upplementary training, to any of th e callings oflife to which their . aspirations may lead. Hence, while the military feature in th e South Carolina Military Academy has been urg ed as an objection to the Instit ution, both theory and practice declare that therein lies its chief strength : a f<:> ature adm irable in its effect upon the physique of the cadet-adm 'ira ble for the honest work it secures , for the scholastic aµplication it promotes, for the high standard it compels, and no less admirable for the authority it wields, and the whole some restraints that it ex ercises. But the South Carolina Military Academy is not to be viewed only as an ind epend ent in..,titution of learning, sta ndin g upon its special mer its. It is furth er to be co nsidered as a part of the educationa l system of the State. Th ere is no �18 part of the Academy more suggestive than the beneficiary feature . In selecting from each county in the State two meritorious youths , and op ening to them , without cost of any kind, the opportunities of higher education, South Carolina has placed herself in the forefront of the States. There is in every community a class of per sons, how ever aspiring , who can not ava il themselves, of the advantag es even of the free tuition that may be afforded in schools of ad vanced educ :: tion. 1 Where no provision is mad e for this el ement , th e Stat e fails to provide for her needy , but not le ss deserving childrenlonging for the waters meet to slake th eir int ellectual thir st . But it has bee n reserv ed for South Carolina, in her rnunifi-o cence, to do, in th e Citad el scheme, more tha11 to g ive free tu1t1on. Hers it is to disp ense her gifts rig ht royally, while making it th e privilege of her favored son, aft er graduation, to make compensation at least by two years service in the Public Schools. In this country, happily for th e people, public education has become th e settled policy, In a governmental fabric like ours, the very foundation of which rests upon int elli ge nce and virtue in the mass es ; in a land wher e suffra g e for all is consi stent only with education for all, it would be strange were it otherwise. Whil e, howev er, no sound legislator denies that school houses are cheaper than jails, and less costly than the Penetentiary; while no int elligent man in public life arrays himself again st th e common school system , yet to th e appro priation of th e public mon ey for high er education, oppo sit ion certainly exi st s'. I s thi s con s ist ent? I s it wise? We think it is not. What is good for th P pa rt is good for th e whol e. What is high e r educati on but a part of prim::i.ry education? Shall South Carolina not provide for prim ary education to run under certain conditions into high er education ? Shall th e m eans not be p ro vid ed wh ereb y th e lower education al battalion s shall be rec ruit ed in lead ership from th e high er? �19 Shall th e rear rank of the long lin e of her primary scholars be deni ed the privilege of reachin g th e front rank , even when som e gifted minds become inflam ed with a noble ambiti o n to ri se to a high e r plane? Sh all S out h Carolina cr eate in th e mind s of h er youth a des ire for hi g her knowl e dg e, and th en close to them the opportunity of g ratification? W e hold that to shut th e door s of Public School s of hi g her education to our ambitious an d de servin g y o uth of limi te d · m ean s, is to br eak the symmetry of a wis e sch eme of public in struction. What would be th ought of th e ma ster build er who w ould lay the foundation and stop at th e s up erstructur e ; or of th e smith \Vho would for ge the plo ug h, and omit the point, o r of th e armor e r who would make th e sword and leav e th e edge un sh arp ened? And thus he wh o leaves a common sch oo l system, uncrown ed with the turr ets and tow ers of hi gh · education, leave s his work p ointless-incompl ete . As we underst::incl it, the low e r a nd high er sch ool s of ed ucation that the Stat e ha s, for wise ends , und ertak en to fo st er, are parts of one harmonious w hol e. W e ho ld t hat th ey act and react upon each other , and t ha t you cannot assa il any part of t11e goodly fabric without imp airing th e int eg rit y of the entire structure. Di stinct as the billows, these institutions of Public Education in our Stat e are yet, in fact, on e as the sea . War is waged upon th e expon ent s in Sou th Carolina of the ~chem e of h igher pu blic education . South Carolina has been called upon to abdic ate h er high st and on thi s qu es tion . It may be well for th e su gge stion to b e h ee ded, that th e public man wh o strikes a blow at e nt erpr ise s 0f hi g h er education by th e Stat e, actually wouod s the ve ry sys tem of primary education that it is his sp ecial purpo se to fost er and dev elop. That th e policy of economy a ncl ret renchm ent sh ould ever cha ract eriz e the adm ini stration of public affairs, is free ly conceded; but equall y obvious is it, t hat '' Education , '' a s Burke say s, " is th e cheap defe nc e of n atio ns. " S ur ely So, 1th Caroli na, if she wo uld re-es t abl is h her pow er and ret ain he r pl ace in th e siste rho od of th e St ates of th e �20 i\m erican Union, mu st maint ain an educational sys tem wisely adapted to th e wa nt s of h er peo pl e, a nd so arra nged as to brin g out int o effective play the best men tal forces of the Commonwealth. It ha s been sa id that no ma n can tell where ge niu s may lie dormant. Ju st as the rliamond is found am id rud e s urr ound ings, so. great natural g ifts of sou l are often di scovered in the humbl e cotta ge - g ifts, which it ne eds only the fosteri ng care of th e Comm onw ealt h to develop, in order that they may become th e so urce of public goo d, and adorn th e public service. Such was th e good work do ne in past, by th e Academy whose rec ent re-establishment has prompted th ese reflection s. Such was th e benefice nt part th at it played in the sc heme whi ch th e wisdom of th e State sanctioned and uph eld from 1842 to 1865. But it has bee n said th at, goo d and great as th e mission of th e Citadel may ha ve been, it has bee n fulfill ed. Is this so? The an swer is contained in the numb ers that gathe red aro und th e flag as soo n as was h eard the first tap of the acade mic drum. T he popular instinct is wiser and true r than individual judgment. No! Not fulfill ed i,s the mi ssio n of the Citadel. Th at mi ss ion is but resumed, after the healed wounds of war. And that mis si\)n will remain unfulfill ed until, in South Caro- , Jina, from mou nt ain to sea, th ere shall be no need for th e light . of intelligence to be tun1 ed in to humbl e h om es; n o need for th e good work that the Citadel ha s heretofore done ; no nee d for the patriotic so ldi ership it has fashioned; no need for the robust c itizenship it has m oulde d. \!Vhatever the divergence of views on the question, the State ha s closed the debate. The rev ived In st itutio n of Arts and Arms is an accom pli shed fact . Starting into life at the magic touch ofher faithful children, the Citadel re-enters th e are na of learning in Sou th Carol ina. . The saiutation of her elder sister, at th e Capital, as rece ntl y extended through one of he r sc holarly alumni, is return ed , a nd to all h er other compee rs in the State, the Aca de my exte nd s a cordial greeting; as she hea rtily unites with th em in th e common, fer vent aspira ti on, that th ei r joint labors, put forth in th e nob le ca use of lett ers, �21 may strengthen the bands of relig ion, lift our people to a hig her civilization and, in general, promot e the honor and welfar e of the State . Though shorn of her symmetry in form, with one fair limb fire-blast ed and shrunken, yet th e Citadel still iives in he r vigor . Neither war nor fl:1me, nor e nforce d inactivit y has impair ed h er force or quenched her spi rit . As sh e looks today upon th e well-fill ed ranks of her post-bellum sons wh o from all quarters of the State h ave at her call ra llied around her standard, her proud soul mounts into her eyes and she renews her youth. H er care er in the future is what thes e younger sons shall mak e . Let them see to it, that rising to the hei g hts of solid character, th ey at all times guard the honor of the flag . And as for tho se charged with h er present fortunes, God give them str ength speedily to r eclot h e th e Academy in h e r robes of state, and to replace up on her chasten ed brow th e crown of her glory . Gentlem.en of the Washington Light Infantry: In obedi ence to your summons, which cam e to me invested with authoritativ e power, I hav e a vailed myse lf of your anni. versary to set before th e Sbte th e a ims and ends-so far at lea st as I may be deemed at lib er ty to interpret them -- which the custodians of the South Carolina Military Academy have in view. While every sec tion of th e State has received with more or less approval t~1 rehabilitation of the Cita del, no where else has e that rehabilit at ion been gree t ed ,vith such interest as in thi s community. In thi s case th e rule that a prophet is without honor in his ow n country see ms to be reversed Surely it is a good s ig n that where an iustitution of education was best known, it sho nld be most highly prized. As the Executive of the Academy, it gives me pleasure to b ea r public testimony to th e high consideration, municipal and personal, with which Charleston greets th e advent of the Citadel. Th e Cadet, ev en as he has thus far pr ese nted him- �22 sel f, ''wit h tender pi ni on s sca rcely fledged,'' has been m et wit h th e ra re cou rtesy t hat m arks t h is " city by t he sea." T he re was, inde ed, o ne ma rked feat ur e co nn ected wit h the re-ope ning of the sa lly-port of the Citade l, well calculated to exc ite atten t ion. Th is was th e sce ne at the initia l evening pa rades. Again, near the setti ng of the su n , the b reeze, that sweeps th rough t h e wc>llremember ed rotunda, could be seen playing wit h the tresses or fann ing the cheeks of the city's rosy g irlh ood, and again brig ht eyes beaming from the bal ustrade of the galleries poured down thei r rays upon the quickened 1ine of grey. Encouraged by the manhood of this refined community, che ered by its t ender and g raceful womanhood, surrounded by all th e ennobling memories that cluster around this classic city, which, in the late war received, without flinching, full in her front, the bolts of war, well may the Cad et be inspir ed to the high es t rea ch es of the so ldier student. \Nell may he pro pose to hims elf a loft y st ,rndard of soldiership and scholar , ship, and seek to make hi s Acade my of itself '' a true poem that is, a compo sition and pattern of the best," epic in character, in tone, in subs tanc e. To you, comrades of the \tVashington Light Infan t ry, is the Acad emy under speci .d obligations for your unvary jng acts of friendly int eres t from toe tim e, when you gave the Colors und e r which the Cad et Battalion now marches, to this day which symboliz es our'' clasped broth erhood.' ' On behalf of the Academy, let .n e tender my warm ack nowledgments for your consideratio n.

N' S In obedience to the invitation of tho Sup erint endent and Officers of my Alma Mater, it is my grateful duty to make th e address at the close of these int eresting exer cises. , Vhile I cheerfully assume th e respon sibilitie s of the h our, I could wish, sincerely, that th e choice of th o officers had fall en upon some son of the Acad emy who could bring larger abilitie s to h er service, and whose voice might be heard in her behalf with more effect throughout the length and breadth of our beloved common wealth. But whi le I mistrust my capacity to do full justi ce to tho worthy I nstitution I have now tho honor to repre sent, I bring to th e duty before me a heart full of grat eful r espect, and sha ll speak in behalf of the old Citad el and the work she has done in tho past, and th o work I tru st she has yet to do in the future, as a loyal son would speak of a cherished mot her, whose patience had born e with th o follies of hi s youth , and whose wisdom and fostering care had given spirit and purpo se to hi s manhood . In greeting you to-day, young gent lemen, as the first grad uates of tho Acad emy under it s second charter from th e State, I do so with ming led emotion s. Associations , inseparable from th ose exercise s, revive ha llowed memories . Th ey recall the form s and faces of tho se who gr eeted us years ago, and who will m eet us h ere no mor e forever! It woul d be to me a most grat ifying task to spoak to you of t he old Board of Vi sitor s, of J on es, and Jami son, an~ Means, and Hanna, and allace, and ·Wilson, th e fath ers of our Alma :Mater! ,. se faithful , wise and pat riotic rho men, who watch ed with j ealou s care its steady progress, and ,v �4 hail ed from year to yea r the increasing evidences of its use fulness to the Stat e. "With equal gratitude I could tell you of the old P rofessors, and speak of them with abundant appreciation, bu t my duty is to devote my time to the consideration of t hat for which they all devoted their abilities an d accomp lishment s with unfaltering energy-th e advancement of the chamcter and ivorlr, of the Acad emy itself. . , ,Vhy should there be a manife station of so muc h inte rest in the success and stabi lity of our State institutions of l earn ing ? vVhy are thei r friends ever ready to maintain the ir vrnrth? And why should the State extend her fostering hand to shield and pro tect them? I shall attem pt to answer thes e qu estions, and will state, as full y as I can, first, the groun d of the being of the South Carolina Military Academy; and then pr esent some of the mo st cogent reasons, which infl uence th e friends of the Acad emy, to urge its maintenance as an important agency of the State in promotin g h er hig hest welfar e. rro bring th e subje ct before you as distinct ly as I can, I mu st refer to th at part of our history which lies so far back of our times that we are only too pron e to overlook its lessons. And yet we should remember , my fellow-citizens, and we should teach our childr en to remember, that the history of thos e early days cont ains the germs of all our succeeding history . vVe are eating th e fruit of trees planted by those wh o knew full well they would never enjoy them, but they were content to plant for us. vVe are living and acting by princip les and governed by ideas which cost our forefathers the abandonment of th eir homes in th e old world, the peril s of thousands of m iles of sea , and the untold. hardships and dangers of a sett lement in th e wilds of an untri ed land, inhabited only by savages and ·wild beasts. �0 'l"'hey counted not their liv es dear to th emselves and their families if happily th ey might lay safe foundations for their descendant s. 'furning back the pag es of Car olina's hi story, we find th e fath ers and found ers of our State care ful to lay thes e sur e foundations on a rock. "'W ithin twenty years from the remova l of the colony to the site of this ancient city, the Assembly voted to establi sh a public library in Charleston, and the law m ade provision that the books should be loaned out for the benefit of the inhabitants. The first schools establi shed by our fathers were Free Schools, and the act establi shin g th em declares th em to be founded "for th e benefit and use of the inh abitant s of South Carolina. " In one of the ear ly acts of Assembly, 1712, the bui lding of school hou ses and the sett lement of sch ool masters is encouraged, the act authoriz ing 12£ s to be paid from t he Tr easury toward s erectin g each school house, and 10£s toward s paying the salary of each Parish school maste r. Thu s, you perceive, whil e the fi rst generat ion born on the soil of Carolina was yet, growing up; when the frontier s of the State were not mor e than fifty miles away from Charleston; and when th e red man and the Spaniard were plotting th e destructi on of the in fant State, and while yet great forests were to be cut down and cleared away that a virgin soil might produce food for the colonists, and furnish the m aterials for founding trade and comm erce, the founders of the State lai d down th e principle, that it is of vi tal importanc e to the well-b eing of the whole communi ty, that the enlight enme nt of the citizen should be the care of the State. Th ey created a puuli c librar y in Charl eston, and established free schools in different par ts of the colon y, for th e express benefit of all the inhabitants. The accompli shed hi storian who writes the early lit era ry hi story of our State, and tells us that the knowl edge of Gram.mar, of Histor y, of Math ematics, of Greek an d of Latin, �G could be obtained in Carolina at any time after 1712, tells us also, that no State in the Am erican Un ion, afterwards, Virginia excepted, obtained a greater proportion of nat ional ho12or or enjoye d larger opportuni ties of public serv ice ; s. and further, that thi s fitne ss for discharg ing _ er hi gh duties h to a great republic of free and self-governing States, was mainly due to the attention paid by the fathers to the liberal educat ion of their sons. 'l"his attention to education by the State, laid down as a principle of true policy in 1712, has been ever sin ce maintained in Sou th Carolina . · In 1801 the Legi slature gave signal expr_ssion to it by e the passage of a bill founding the South Carolina College at Columbia, and in tho preamb le to the Act uses t he following langua ge: ",Vherea s, th o proper education of youth contr ibutes g reatly to the prosperity of society, and ought al·ways to be tho subject ofl egislativo attention; and, whereas, the establishment of a College in the centra l part of th e State, ·w ere all it s youth may be educated: will highl y proh mote th e instr uction, the good order and the harmony of th e whole commu nity; " "Be it enacted, &c." This preamb le embodi es th e principle upo n which some of the greatest institutions of learni ng in our country hav e been founded. 1e " Harvard and Yal e Colleges o-v, th eir existence to State aid, as well as priv ate munificence, whil e William and Mary College, in Vir gini a, next in age to Harvard, was endowed from the Roy al Dominion, and was at first chi efly supported by the inc ome of a tax on tobacco. "Th e Univers it y of P ennsylvania sprang from a free academy, founded by Frank lin , in 1749. '' The Un iver sity of Vir ginia is an imp erishab le monum ent to t h e wisdom of th e gr eates t of democrats, its immor tal found er, and ha s Leen .for more t han fifty years a perennial foun tain, wh ence have flowed streams of blessing to the State .

Th e greatest in stitu tion of learn ing in the Nor th-west , wh ere the large st num ber of stud ent s assembl e ·of all th e colleges in our land, is th e Free Univel'sity of .L 'lfichigan, whi ch was found ed from the sale of public lands, and is t he boast of that mighty and vigorous Comm onwealth.

" To a prec eding Legislatur e, Gov. Ri chard son h ad pu t th e argum ent for Stat e aid, and State in terest, in a single sentence : "Th e benefits of a single year, t he attainm ents of a singl e class, th e acq uir ement s of one, onl y, of it s rip e scholars, the fruit of a single one of th ese g reat mind s, whose energies it ha s developed, would not onl y compensat e for all th e patr onage whi ch h as hith erto been exte nd ed to it, but is imm easurabl y mor e valu able to th e State t han the r esul ts of all h er oth er benefacti ons to adv ance her in terests. " Th en , should it not be the hon orabl e prid e of every Carolini an that hi s State, in h er corp orate Cf. pacity, h as ever sought to elevate h er citizens by exten din g to th em t h e benefits of th e broadest cultur e? Sh ould it n ot be a cause for general rejoicing, wh erever learnin g is appr eciated and ch aracter honor ed, th at Carolin a may poin t to some of h er most emin ent citi zens in th e past, and some of h er most honor ed and useful citi zens in t h e present, to whom th e bounty of her generous h and extend ed th e coveted blessin g of a lib eral edu cation ? Imbued with such sentim ent s, and from a hi gh sense of �8 hi s duty to the State, Governor Rich ardson took the first steps toward s lightin g a new beacon oflearning in Carolina, in 1841. At that time the State needed, as I believe she now n eeds, a military establishm ent for h er safety and protection. She maint ain ed two companies of enli sted men: and emp loyed accompli sh ed officers to command them. By this means two garriso ns were establi shed, one in Columbia , and one in Charlesto n, at the Citadel. At these point s arms and mun itions of war were stored and kept in ord er, ready, in case the •state should need them for the protect ion of the lives of her citizen s. These garri sons cost South Carolina annually, $24,000. No one complained. of this expe nditure of the people's money, because every one readily und erstood that it was for the general good; for the State's phy sical protection, in case of a possible insurrection. Not a cent of this expendit ure came back to the State in the quickened intelligence of her sons; not a dollar was returned to h er in th e well-being of h er indigent youth, trained to dut y in h er serv ice, and tau ght to appreciate th e opportunities of life. The physical benefitof the State was t he only end sought, and for this our people willingly spent $24,000. Governor Richardson conceived the idea making this sum yield a nobler return to the State, a more enduring benefit. Ho would guard her arse nals and maintain h er disciplin ed soldi ers, blij he would conve rt each arsena l into an Acad emy of learning, and each soldier into a loyal, cultur ed citizen, and return him to the commonwealth after his term of service, "animis opibnsqiw parati !" To excite public interest in so noble a scheme, hi s attention was directed to certain poor young men who, fired with th e ambition to learn, stood bound by the cold hand of poverty at the foot of the ladder th ey ,vere more than anxious to climb. Of hi s own authority he sent them to the Arsenal in �9 Columbia , to be the first ben eficiary Cadets of t h o c:omrng South Carolina Milit ary Academy. In Decembe r , 1842, the lam ented Jn,mison in troduced t h o bill to give th e nobl e concept ion of Gove rno r Richanlson legi slat iv e r ecognition , and th e Act was passed whi c: seh cured to Carolina th o guardian ship of h er arm s by her yo ung son s, who, serving h or as soldiers , ,rer e to become educated and useful citi zens . Under this system the matemal hand of th o State extend ed a liberal edu cat ion to her poor sons, but, none wore to receive it wh ose 'tir cum stanc es ena bled them to e;o enmp sate tho State for their edu cation. A Boa rd of Visitors, to vv'l1 the Legi slat ur e wisely gave om the arlpointment of tho State Cad ets, exe r cised a discr im inatin g judgment, an d each coun ty in South Carolina sen t it s repres ent atives to tho Academy. Many of he r most distinguish ed gradu ates \\·ore ben eficia ry Cadets , and some of the se, in aft er yea rs, became h er accomp lish ed Prof essorG . Thu s it will be seen that the Sout h Caroli na Milit a ry Academy was found ed in th o pra ctica l t h ought , tha t while edu cating h or son s for duty, each son mu st, l>ocome her servant a nd soldier, an(l by a fait hful ser vice en n ol>le the intell ect ual labo r t hat sec·ured h is ec1ucat,ion for life. "It would be en ough," says Governor Ric h ardson , whil e urgin g hi s sch eme upon the L egislatur e, '' it would be enou g h to determin e !,lie ad nt nt ages of th o altora.t,ions proposed to contr ast the usefulne ss of more th an fifty of our most promi sing you ng men, ed ucate <l in th e ser vice of th e Stat e, with th e enn oblin g conscionsncss of having paid for their edu catio n by t h eir ser vice; goi ng ab road und er the first feeling of a pr ou d and maul y independence, to occupy their pl aces in society, imbn ed wi th a Stat,o patriot ism, ~1s the nu rs lin gs of her i11 itnlio ns; eomb iHiug the entc rpri ~e st and decision of a - ilit a ry e; ara c!,er \\'it,h the ae;<uirome nt s m h 1 of th eir schola st ic opp ortu ni ~ies; clisp ensiu g knowl edge all<l int elli ge nce through a ll tho vocations of life, which t hey are destin ed to :fill; and , perhap s, most u sefull y diffn sing them as the in stru ctor s of succeeding gen era tions . �10 '' If the success of these instit ut ions,'' continu es Governor Richard son , " should form tho basis of important impro vement s which ma y be extended to our free schools; if th ey should supply better teachers from their Alumni; if they should suggest hi gher and bettor systems of morals and tuition ; or if th ey sh ould only awaken greater ardor in tho peopl e, and n war mer in terest in our rulers to advance the cau se of odu cntion, th ey will achi eve m ore for t he weal and honor of our State than all the ot her labors and app lia n ces of governm ent could in auy oth er manner confer." Such \Vn tho lan gun,ge of tho found ei· of our Academy s addres sed to the law makers in 18..J:2 .

"\ h en an eloquent son of Charle ston, "\ illia.m Crafts, was V V pl ea din g for common schools in th e Legi slature in 1813, he referr ed to tho work the school s had done in the two yea rs of th eir existence, and estimated th eir va lue to th e State in thos e word s: '' \Ve raised," said he, " an infant corp s of future patriot s, and tho se years were fruitfu l in childre n for th e Stat e. Learn in g n ever prod uced ingratitude, and from those children thus adopted, patriotism may look for orn am ents and sacrifices. '' In the course of two yea rs six thousand poor chil dren have been parti ally in struct ed, and th e State expends $30,000 ! "No w, sir, if only one of those six thousand should , in the day of peril, defend this nation and , like Pe rry , cover thi s country with the mantle of his own glory ; if only one of th em in th e hol y offices of religion should ill um in e the path of virtu e and purity ; if only one of them sh ould ab ly advocate in th e Senate the liberties of the count ry and the ( ' . �13 rights of th e people, for one such individua l $30,000 would be a ch eap equivalent, to say nothing of that more numerous , but not less important class, ·who would be hereby fitted for tho un ambiti ous but useful offices of private life." 2. An oth er cogent reason why the State sh ould mainta in h er Militar y Academ y is found in tho syste m of tra inin g, and th e pra ctical c·haract er of th o in struct ion it offers our youth. 'I'h e prim e object of tho Academ y rs NOT TO UAKE SOLDIERS. \ 'rl1is is strikin gly evid ent from th o fo,ct that not one of h er graduates ha s chosen tho profession of arms as a callin g in life. Her mi litary discipline and in struction arc inciden tal featu res of h er tra inin g. She ha s employed these means to enforce the great and essen tial lessons of order, obedience to 1 ·ighiful authority, respect for our betters, and that self-control whic h youth ever need s and never more th an now. For some n atures such a tra ining is th e sine qua non of t h eir su ccess. However irk some it may have seemed to the Cad et, exa ctin g, and at times, perhaps, irrita tin g, to th e gra du ate in life, his milita ry discipl ine follows h im into bu sin ess, regu lates his habi ts of order, enters and organizes and di scipl in es hi s home, constantl y reminds him of hi s own obligation to law, and is a silent, all-p ervadi ng force in hi s character, subord inating him to his rightful place in society. Th e positi ve effect of a mi litary tra inin g to develope character and form habits of attention to duty, finds an evident illu strat ion in those high and nob le characters who were trai ned for the place they fill ed in our country's his tory at our ~ationa l l\Jilita.ry Acad emy . ~o man sin ce ,Vash ington h as been so much admire d as Genera l Lee, and no cha racter in Amer ican hi story is so thoroughly th e proquct of a mili ta ry traini ng. I do not advocate su ch a cour se of education for every yout h , but I believe for a large proportion of our young �1.4 m en an d boys, in this precocious age of universal manhood and universa l freedom, par ent s would best serv e the high est int erests of th eir sons by subj ecting them to a military training. Th e reins of famil y governm ent are h eld mor e loosely now than they used to be. Self-indulgence and self-will are cursi ng our youth . Parents in South Carolina hail ed the establishment of h er Military Acad emi es, and so rapidly had the y grown in public favor that the bu ildings ,, ere doubled in capacity within seven years after their founding. In 1857, the thir teenth year of their history, the numb er of pay applicants for cadets hips so far exceeded th e ability of the Institution to accommodate th em, that for want of the nec essary quarters, twenty-eig pay appli cations were rejectht ed, and th e Board recommended a third enlarge ment of the bui lding at th e ar senal, "to gratify th e desire of a larg e bod y of the peopl e of the State to hav e their sons taught at these schools. " In theirreport to th e Govern or, shortl y after th e experi ment had been well tested , t he Board of Visitors give the secret of the popularity of the Milit ary Academy in these words: "The mili tary training of the Cadets facilitat es th eir in struction in oth er br anc hes of study by the habits of order and discipline which it promotes, and, in the opinion of the Board, appears to solve the difficult problem of the mana gement of a numb er of young men gathered in one institution of learning and scien ce. ,i By r equiring th em to account for every moment of th eir ti me, it pr events them from acquiring vicious habit s, by withdrawing th em from the allurements of dissipation." A practical and scienti fic ;ourse, embracing "History, the ~rench lan guage, every department of Math emat ics, Book-k eeping, Rh etoric, Moral, Menta l and Natura l Philo sophy, Architectural and Topographical Drawing, Chemistry, Geology, Min eralogy, Botany, Civil and Military Engin eering, the Constitution al Law of the United States, and th e �15 Law of Nations ," gave to each Cadet tho opportunity to :fit him self for the busin ess of life, or for the hi~her pur suits of learning in any of th e great professions. Hundred s of Carolin a's youth embrace d this opportun ity. From first to last more than 2000 of our young men hav e beeu train ed and tau ght at the Acnclemy, to a greater or 1ess extent. If our Alma Mater could to-day collect th o nam es of Cadets ,rho left h er ,rall s, after receiving one, tv.:o or three years of h er government and teaching, and if she could do for them what Col. Thomas has_clone for h er graduates- ·writ e opposite to th eir names a hi story of their work in life-what ampl e ju stification it would afford my argume nt! \Vh o could estimate by a money standar d tho Yalue of tho Academy's stam p upon those 2000 yout h? \Vh o conld sa,y how far they Juul cxto nclecl h er bene fits to society? Into what nooks and corn ers th o light h ad sho ne whi ch they h ad kindl ed at h er a,ltars? Wh en th o accompfo_;hodPr esident of tho great Un iversity of Michi gan ,ras recently presenting th e claims of tha t in sti tu tion upon tho State, ho urg ed tho thought I am now pre senting, in glowing lnng uage : '' Tru e education," saicl P resident Angell, ' ' is luminou s, outgoin g, diffosive, reproductive. " It is by this diffusion of educated men, and by the dif·fusion through t hem of t he di rect and indirect advantages of edu cation among th e in hnbitants of every town and ham let, that a great school oflcarning does its hi ghest work, and ju stifies its claim to supp ort by th e whole people. "It is not true that a State institution blesses only the man who receives its Dipl oma . " In a larg e sense it is true" t hat th e ad vantages of th e high er edu cation cannot be selfishly monopolized . '' An edncatior, ca, no t 1e truly enjoyed; it can hardly be n used in an honorable "·ay, without conferr ing ben efits on others. '' You might as reasonably taik of the sun monopolizing l~ 1r l II !

'' Th e mom ent the sun shin es, tho wide uni verse around is bath ed in hi s life-giving beams " The Graduates and Cadets who have gone, and who go forth to-day, from this State Academy, go forth bear in g a light ed torch! 'rhey go forth bearing pr ecious seed, with the purpos e and comm ission to sow by all waters, and in all fields, and th eir fellow-citiz ens m,ust share with th em th e harvests. L earn ing and character cannot be convert ed in to secre t treaS11,res, which men may hid e away in the ir homes, or their commun ities, as tho sordi d miser hi des hi s bag of precio u s gold! Th ey go with tho man whereverh e goes; they do the work h e und ertak es ; th ey pl ead the cau se he advocates ; th ey fulfil th e tru sts h e assumes ; th ey serv e the State he serv es ; th ey multip ly, a hundr ed fold, all hi s efforts to good in t h e world, and consecate his example I r Let th e day be forever remote when South Carolina shall withhold a great agency in form in g the charactersand training th e 1ninds of h er sons. 3. Anoth er consideratio n which, to my mind, offors a weigh ty reason for cheris hin g our Military Academy is, th at with th e University at Columbia, it is a unifying age ncy, 'uniting ou1 people. Th e State in stitutions arc centres · of unity, as no other in stitu tions of learning can be. The very prin cipl e upon whi ch th ey arc fostered by th e State is that they belong to her entire people, without distinct ion of secti on, class or religious belief. H ence parents of all section s, all classes, and of every religious denomination, arc free to commit th eir sons to th e care of the State in stitution s. Being i bere, what is tho effect of their association as fellow-students? Fri endly contact with those ·who differ from us, conscientiou sly, teaches respect for the ir sincerity, and in the de- .. �17 gree that men are fait hful to th eir con victions, considerati on for th efr con victions. ·wh en a youth for th e first time emerges from th e narrow limit s of th e township in whi ch h e was born , and find s himself in daily association with repre senta ti ves from every qu art er of hi s State, some of wh orn will h old religious beliefs, and practi ce, it may be, religious customs h e may h ave been tau ght to h ate, while others will belong to a politi cal creed h e had n ever consid ered, that youth has ent ered a n ew world and mu st make h appy discoveries . H e will learn tol eration, consid eration for th e ri ght s of oth ers, and th at independence in holding one's opinions, which is nobl e, only when it is dignified by a becom ,ing respe f or the ct opinions of others. \1/atch ed by the matern al eye of th e State, and nurtured by her care, h e will earl y feel th e bon d of hi s citizensh ip. A sentim ent fo r the whole Slate will grow in close associati on with friend shi p's so strong, so cl ar, that distance, n or e difference of opin ion, 110 opposing State poli cies, nor th e clash of rival interests, n or th e ambit ion of aspirin g m en, nor mount ain, nor seaboard, nor any oth er creatur e shall be abl e to separate h im f~om th e cat h olic spirit of hi s Academic life. Thi s is a great gain to the Stat e, and a nob le en d to be achi eved by her Sta te institutions of lear ni ng . Th e th ough tful stu dent of our hi story, from th e revolution to th e pr esent time , must see th e deadly tend en cy to section alism which th at history r ecords . How ever that feelin g ma y bo a natura l on e, it is ruinou s to th e ha1· mony of th e State, ma:rs its character, and must affect injuri ously its legislation. · A m ere part isan for h is section, or h is sect, may be th e emb odim ent of in tell ectual ability , earnestness , and hon esty of purp ose, bu t h e cannot be a j ust law-make r. No cataract wh ich afflicts th e human vision, distor ting th e lov ely ol>j cts of nat ur e into h ideous sh apes, an d mi se leading th e steps of man, is a greater blinder th an tradit-io nal prejudice. • ii l ' �18 Let the kindly offices of friendly association, like the healing art of the skillful optician, gent ly remove the confusing obstruction, and men and measures stand in their proper relations, and the light of justice and truth pours • into the mind as into a temple swept and garnished. " '\Vould you make a commonwealth a unit? " Educate its sons together." This was the counsel of the great and good Thornwell. Having devoted a large portion of his life to the business of instruction, says Dr LaBorde in his sketch of Dr. 'rhornwell, he had occasion to examine for himself the great question of education, and his matured conclusions are to be found particularly stated in his letter to Governor Manning, written in 1853. In concluding that letter he thus speaks of the unifying powers of a common education and the need of a common centre of instruction: "There ought to be some common ground on which the members of a State may meet together and feel that they are brothers; sorr.i.ecommon ground on · which their children may mingle without confusion or discord, and bury every selfish and . narro-:v interest in the sublime sentiment that they belong to the 'same family. " Nothing is so powerful as a common education, and the thousand sweet associations that spring from it, and clu ster around it to cherish the holy brotherhood of men. "Those who have walked together in the same paths of science, and taken sweet counsel in the same halls of learning; who went arm-in-arm in that hallowed season of life when the foundations of all excellence are laid; who have wept with the same sorrows, or laugh ed with the same joys; who have been fired with the same ambition, lured by the same hopes, and grieved at the same disappointmentsthese are not the men in after years to stir up animosities or foment intestine feuds ." 4. I would present one other consideration . Our State should preserve her Military Academy as the complemen ·t of her public school system. To-day, you graduate fifty-three Cadets. Of this number • • • �19 • thirty-four are to b~ teac her s in our common schools in their respectiv e counties for th e next h vo yea rs. 'I'his servic e they owe to the State as the recipients of h er gen erou s bounty. And what has th e acade mic traini ng of th ese thir ty-four teach ers, for the cour se of four years, cost the taxpa yers of the Stat e? $40,800. 'rhree hundr ed dollar s per annum for each beneficiar y ! Thi s has · increased our tax ation about twenty-nine hv,ndredths of one mill, for the four year s. Our taxpay er$ hav e paid TWENTY- NINE cents ON E VER Y THOU SAND DOLLARS of taxable prop er ty in four year s, or SEVEN AND A QUARTER cents on th e thou sand dollar s, PER AN N UM. The edu cation of these thirty-four common school teachers has cost the poor man, who pays a tax on $ 100 of prop erty, two cents and nine mills ! It has cost hi s n8ighbor , .vho pays a tax on $10,00() of prop erty, two dollars and .ninety cents ! It has cost the capitalist, who pays a tax on $100,000, twenty-nine dolla in four year s, or seven dollars and a qua1·t · rs e1 per annum! The enti?'eapproz ? J ·iation to the Citadel Acad emy for the past fou1· yean , in cludin g, of cour se, th e $40,800 I hav e been discussing, ha s onl y added about one-half o a mill to th e f rate of taxation for th at period of time, or a littl e less than one-ei_qhthof a mill per annum. One eighth of a mill will raise more than the pr esent appr opri at ion to th e Citad el, and will impos e upon our people a tax of 1¼ cent s on $100 of property, or 12½ cents on $1000 . And for this tax each county in the State may gradua te two. ben eficiari es every four y ear s. If education was a luxur y , which th e Sta te could dispense with , her people might ju stly complain of thi s small tax; but when the tax is levied to enlighten her poor sons, and prepare them fo1· good citizenship, ought h er people to complain? • f{ �20 One cent and a quarter levied on the poor man, and twelve and a half cents on hi s more pro sperous neighbo r to sustai n sixt y-eight beneficiari es of the State! And Sou th Carolin a too poor to bear the burd en ! Unwilling to bear it for her own childr en! South Carolina, th at poured out the blood of the fathers, lik e water, on the battle field s of fifteen States, unwilling to h elp their poor sons! Believe it who m ay, I will not think that our State will repudiate her ben eficiaries, an d do such dishonor to h er past history. Never, for the savi ng of a paltry sum of money, will th e Palm etto State turn h er h eart away from h er poor boys, and open th e doors of h er high schools only to the rich and prosperous . Tlii s, my fellovv-citizens, is no-~th e Carolina of our father s, nor will it ever be the Carolina of their sons. A numb er of our citizens, recentl y convene d in Columbia, to represent th e farming interests of the State, and, as I believe, uninformed, or misinformed, in regard to the Militar y Acad emy and its work, have resolved that it is a useless expense to th e taxpayer, and have gravely recomme nd ed it s destruction. Well , my friends, if the record I have atte mp ted to present to-day goes for nothing in the minds of our assembly; if th e policy of our State, from its Colonial history to th e pre sent, was erron eous and unwise; if our fathers have blu ndered in the ir·patriotic efforts to elevate the citizens of the State; and if the Legis latures of Carolina} from 1712 to 1886, h ave been perpetuating, in the sacred name .of learning and enlightenment, a great wrong, then, indeed, let th e Pa lm etto ensign be haul ed down from yonder flagstaff, and the Citadel and the College go! We h ave witnessed the torch and the rude hand of war bur n and destroy ·what most we loved and prized! It may be before us, fellow-graduates, and friends of the old Citadel, to witness the hands of our own brothers tear th e crown from the honored brow of our Alma Mater, and I • •I �21 . . in voking the same authority that gave he r being, depri ve her of the State's commis sion to do good in her day and generation; but unti l I witness the catastrophe, I will not believe its consummation possible in a Legislature of South Carolina, composed of representati ve South Carolinians. Gentlemen of the Board of Visitors, I have the highest pleasure in congratulating you to-day upon the present cond ition of our Alma Mater. In behalf of the friend s of our State In stit utions of learn ing, in every part of South Carolina, I exte nd to you ou r warm.est acknowledgments for the fidelit y and ability with which you hav e discharg ed tho imp ortant trust committed to your care. Equipped as the Citadel now is, I confidentl y expect for h 8r a long career of usefuln ess to our whole people. Under the charge of tho gallant and accomplished gentleman who fills the office of Superintendent, assisted by an able Faculty, th e "O ld Citadel ," as we are fond to call our Academ y, will regain the confirlence of our entire State by prov ing her self a blessing to our yout h . These young gentl emen, whom you have gra duated to-da y, will be your first wit nesses to the Sta te. On th e testimon y they ·will make you may confident ly rely, for Carolina ha s never dishonor ed su ch testimony-the testimony of an enlightened and ilsejul citizenslvip. To secure this grea t end our Academy ·was founded, and unti l she fails to answer the purpo se of her being, our mother State will not be unmindful of her past, or indiff erent to her future . · �# , I ) � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Lucas – <br /><br />referred to the Chairman by the Supt. were submitted by him &amp; considered – <br /><br />The simultaneous resignation of so many Cadet Officers together with unofficial information obtained, caused the Board to fear that some serious trouble existed in the ranks of the Corps of Cadets – <br /><br />Conference was asked with each member of the faculty, the surgeon &amp; qr.

Present: the whole Board, except Mr. Gaillard. <br /><br />The report of the Superintendent on the suspension of Cadet W. Walker was taken up and the following resolution adopted, to wit “Considering the question raised in this case by the cadet as to the rule adopted by the Academic Board, as to inflicting demerits for neglect of study, the action of the Academic Board is approved as within their powers under the regulations and the suspension of the Cadet is confirmed. <br /><br />The report of the Supt. on suspension of Cadet Courtenay was taken up and the same action taken as in the case of Cadet W. Walker. <br /><br />The Board then adjourned at 530 P.M. <br /><br />Citadel, Charleston, S.C., <br />Aug 4th, 1885 <br /><br />The Board met at 10 A.M. All were present except Mr. Gaillard. <br /><br />The following letter was received from <br /><br />[Page 21] <br />Wm. A. Courtenay: <br /><br />“Dear General: <br /><br />I have been informed that the request contained in my recent letter in regard to my son, has been refused by the Board. I would be obliged to you if you would state the ground of such refusal on the back of this letter and return the same to me. <br /><br />Very respectfully <br />Wm. A. Courtenay <br /><br />To Gen. Hagood <br />Chairman Board Visitors. <br /><br />The extract of the minutes covering the action of the Board in the case of Cadet Courtenay was, in answer to the request of Mr Courtenay endorsed on the back of the letter and the same returned to him. <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">with the additional endorsement: “Same action as in Cadet Walker’s case.”</span> <br /><br />The following report of the Committee to examine charges against certain officers was received: <br /><br />To the Board of Visitors – <br /><br />Gentlemen – <br /><br />Your committee appointed by the Chairman to investigate certain charges made by the Supt. against Professor Kemper, asst. Prof. Mazyck and Q. Mast. White, would respectfully report – <br /><br />That the Committee met at the Citadel July 15th, 1885. That Col. Thomas was invited to make a statement; the purport of what he said is embodied (by his request) in the paper marked #1. <br /><br />The committee then visited the section rooms of nearly all the faculty, to avoid appa- <br /><br />[Page 22] <br />rent discrimination, and with the same intent, required all the faculty to drill before them, executing certain prescribed maneuvers. The committee recognized the insufficiency of the tests, but could not, under the circumstances do better. <br /><br /><span style="text-decoration:line-through;">Col.</span> Maj. Kemper having resigned previous to this report it is unnecessary for the committee to report in his case. <br /><br />In the case of Prof. Mazyck the committee found nothing either in the section room or on the drill to sustain the charges of the Supt. His statement is submitted herewith, marked #2. <br /><br />The committee then visited the office of the Q. Master, and examined his books, records &amp;c., and found them all in good order. The fact as reported by the Supt. that July 1st 1884 the Academy owed over $4000 and to-day nothing bears ample testimony to the efficiency of the Quarter Master. <br /><br />They visited the Mess Hall and found the fare good and substantial. No evidence was presented other than that of the Supt. as to the charge of being under the influence of liquor and the Committee believe, that if his continuance in office is made contingent on his sobriety, that no further cause of complaint will be found. <br /><br />Committee <br />C. I. Walker <br />Sam B. Jones <br />H. A. Gaillard <br /><br />(Copy) <br /><br />Charleston S.C., Aug 3. 1885 <br /><br />Ordered that the charges against Prof. Mazyck and Q.M. White be dismissed and that a copy <br /><br />[Page 23] <br />of the report be furnished Q.M. White for his information. <br /><br />In the case of Cadet Townsend, suspended for desertion, - ordered that he be expelled. <br /><br />In the case of Cadet Gibson, suspended for deficiency in conduct, - ordered that the suspension be confirmed. <br /><br />In the case of Cadet Glazener, suspended for entering a bar in uniform, - ordered that the suspension be confirmed and the cadet dismissed. <br /><br />In the case of Cadet A. D. Boylston’s application for honorable discharge, the application was granted to date from July 1st, 1885. <br /><br />In the case of Cadet Easterby’s application for honorable discharge, the application was granted to take effect July 1st, 1885. <br /><br />In the case of Cadet Keels suspended for deficiency in conduct, - ordered that the suspension be confirmed and the cadet be dismissed. <br /><br />The case of Cadet Aiken was considered and he was granted an honorable discharge to take effect July ist, 1885, demerits received after that date being considered by the Board as under the circumstances, not to be <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">attributed to</span> recorded against him. <br /><br />The case of Cadet Guess was considered. Cadet Guess who, while under suspension for having received over 200 demerits and before leaving barracks did assail a cadet officer who in the discharge of his duty had made the report which brought his (Guess’) demerits above the limits – is expelled from the Academy. <br /><br />The case of Cadet Wroton was considered charged with being present at and as-<br /><br />[Page 24] <br />sisting in an assault upon an officer for a report made in the discharge of his duty. Also with insubordinate words to the Supt. after suspension and further, in violation of orders publishing without permission a card in a newspaper in relation to an academic matter, Cadet Wroton appeared before the Board and was heard in his own behalf. The Board decides that his suspension to date be confirmed, and that the Cadet be restored to duty upon the following conditions: to wit – that for violation of orders in publishing his card in the newspapers Cadet Wroton receive five demerits marks upon his record for the ensuing year; for his insubordinate language to the Supt., he receive ten demerits upon the same record, and for his presence at and resistance in the assault upon the officer he be reprimanded in orders and be placed in arrest for one month commencing with the beginning of the next academic session – On this resolution Gov. Thompson desires to be placed on record as voting against the restoration of the cadet. <br /><br />It was ordered that section 3 of the Regulations be amended so as to read: <br /><br />General duties of Superintendent: - The Superintendent will have the immediate government of the Academy and be held primarily responsible in every Department, all Professors, Teachers &amp;c. (to <br /><br />[Page 25] <br />end of section) <br /><br />Also ordered that section 42 be amended so as to read: - <br /><br />Each Professor and Instructor at the head of a separate Department, shall be the judge of the proper mode of conveying instruction in his own Department and shall be held responsible to the Board of Visitors, through the supervision of the Superintendent, for the correctness of that mode. <br /><br />The resignation of Col. J. P. Thomas as Supt. of the Academy was received and accepted by the Board to take effect Oct. 1st 1885 and the following resolutions were adopted: Resolved that the Board of Visitors in accepting the resignation of Col. J. P. Thomas, Supt. S. C. Military Academy, desires to express its sense of the zeal and earnestness with which he has discharged the duties of his office and that in retiring from the Instruction he carries with him the best wishes of the Board for his future welfare – <br /><br />Resolved: - that the Secretary be instructed to furnish Col. Thomas with a copy of these resolutions. <br /><br />Ordered that the Q. Master be instructed to put up a gymnasium in the West Wing or such other part of the premises as the Superintendent may direct and under the Superintendent’s supervision at a cost not to exceed one hundred dollars. <br /><br />Cadet Mathesons application dated July 3rd 1885 asking for the creation of a clerkship in the Supt’s. office <br /><br />[Page 26] <br />and his appointment thereto was read. – <br /><br />Ordered that the Board decline to create the clerkship suggested. <br /><br />Cadet Matheson’s application for honorable discharge was considered. The Board conceiving that the reasons given for the application are not sufficient to abrogate the contract with the state ordered that the application be declined – <br /><br />Cadet Parker’s application for honorable discharge was considered – ordered that the application be granted and that for facts shown the dues for two months already paid in viz: $50.00 be refunded by Quarter Master – <br /><br />Capt Halls application in reference to ventilation <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">referred</span> considered – Ordered that Q.M. investigate and report to executive committee who shall have power to act.

Having discharged this duty, Resolved: that considering all the circumstances &amp; facts developed, while the Board have acquitted Cadet Schirmer in the Court of Inquiry of the charge affecting his character as a gentleman yet, in their apprehension had the Academic career of the Cadet does not exhibit qualifications enabling him to discharge the duties of an officer usefully to the Academy. The Supt. is therefore directed to revoke Cadet Schirmer’s appointment as a Sergt. of the Corps <br /><br />Saml. B. Jones <br />Sec – <br /><br />[Page 29] <br />Charleston S.C. <br />Aug 5th, 1885. <br /><br />The Board met at Charleston Hotel at 930 A.M. Present: Gen. Hagood, Col. Croft, Gen. Walker, Gov.

Visitors S.C.M.A. <br /><br />Sir: I have received the order, of the Board of Visitors directing me to revoke Cadet Schirmer’s appointment as a Sergeant of the Corps. <br /><br />Without entering into the question of the legality of the order, I have the honor to decline to be the instrument, in my official position as Superintendent, for doing what I regard a serious injustice to a worthy and deserving Cadet, by inflicting upon him that punishment which, by the regulations of the Academy, is specially appropriated to the case of a “Cadet officer who neglects his duty and betrays the confidence reposed in him” – neither of which offenses Cadet Schirmer has committed or is alleged to have committed. <br /><br />I am, <br />Yours respectfully, <br />Jno. P. Thomas <br />Col. Comd’g. Supt. <br /><br />Minutes read and, as corrected by [illegible], confirmed. <br /><br />On motion the order of Board of Visitors meeting Aug 4th announcing decision of Board in Schirmer’s case was reconsidered. <br /><br />Resolved, that the said order be reformed as follows: <br /><br />[Page 30] <br />Cadet Schirmers case. – When the recent Court of Inquiry was convened the Board of Visitors reserved to itself to inquire beyond the charge and specifications presented, into the fitness of Cadet Schirmer for the office to which he was appointed. Having discharged this duty resolved, that considering all the facts and circumstances developed, while the Board have acquitted Cadet Schirmer in the Court of Inquiry of the charge affecting his character as a gentleman, yet, in their judgement his original appointment was inexpedient in that these facts and circumstances had not exhibited in the Cadet qualifications enabling him to discharge the duties of an officer usefully to the Academy. Cadet Schirmer’s appointment as a Sergeant of the Corps is therefore hereby revoked. <br /><br />On motion the action of the Board relative to Col. Thomas’ resignation at the meeting of Aug. 4th, was reconsidered and the following substituted therefor to wit, - the resignation of Col. Thomas was submitted. Resolved 1st. that Col. Thomas’ resignation as Superintendent be accepted to take effect to-day. 2nd. that the senior officer present for duty is placed in command and will discharge the duties of Superintendent until further orders. 3rd. that the officer so acting shall be entitled to draw extra pay at the rate of fifty dollars per month. <br /><br />C.
