THE GRA5GES. All over the state the republican leaders are becoming alarmed at the rapid organization of the Granges. It is their belief that it will prove a powerful political engine in the next campaign. They are aware that the victory last year for the republicans was made easy by the total lack of organization in the democratic or conservative party. Had the granges existed then, bow easily could the sixty thousand conservative votes have been thrown for the bolter's ticket it it were thought best, or for a clean conservative ticket. g Agricultural Laud Scrip Bonds. The agricultural college laud scrip was sold for seventy-six cents an acre, and the money invested in $192,000 of South Carolina bonds. The trustees were too negligent or too trustful. So they never got either money or bonds. In a moment of severe '"pressure" Kimpton hypothecated the bonds to a Hew York Safe deposit company, for the -sum of $57,000, which went "where the woodbine twineth," The bonds -are in that Safe oompany's possession now. By the tern** of the contract between the United Slates and the state, the interest on these bonds will have to be paid in full. No scaling here. ? i?i Blue Ridge Scrip. ..'Since the decision of the United 'Stales supreme court upon the bills of the bank of .the Btate. holders of the revenue bond scrip, generally cajled Blue Ilidge, have determined to nmse a ease by having a non-resident tender it fur taxes this fall, and if refused to carry the question of its legality as a Lender for taxes to the United States supreme court. They think that the -* lha (Viiue ynucpaia ouiwu ?v court io the funk bill case, will secure for tbem a favorable decision. ??2? The Uultcd States um.I S C. Bonds. Two hondred and fifty thousand dollars of South Carolina bonds are held by the United States government in settlement of certain Indian annuities. Can our sapient legislators scale down Uncle Sam's bonds? The Insurance t'o's Bonds. I)o our scalers propose to take the bonds deposited with the comptroller by foreign insurance companies and scale them down to forty cents on the dollar? We rather guess our merchants would soon be unable to procure insurance at all. Every reputable company would withdraw from the state. The bonds held thus in trust by the comptroller amount to nearly a million ot dollars. The bill reported by the judiciary committee 01 me seimse, iu puineu persons for removing, or secreting personal property levied on for taxes, cannot fail of meeting with the hearty approval of the laborers of South Carolina.

Among a very few extraordinary tills given notice of, but not yet reported, is one by John VaMcc (he was elected on the bolting ticket) of union county to fix by statute the voting precincts in that county. Nothing oould be iuore fatal to the interests of the Republican party there; yet, it is not beiieved he or another colored man would puipostly favor a project of that kind; it ouly goes to show how careful all should be, of the scheming politicians who have not lost all hoi>c that the Ib'inoeraey iuay again be in the ascendency in those upper counties, llills have been iutroduocd in both brunches, looking to a provision for the payment of the expenses of the extra sessiou, alto for the payment ot me olaiujs of the South Carolina Bank and Trust Co., the Citizen* Savings Bank, and the Central National Bank all of this city. A hill has also bocn repotred favorably upon by the Senate Printing committee, to appropriate seventy-five thousand dollars to pay for the compilation and printing of the Immigration statistics authorized by the last session; twenty five thousand dollars for publishing the Supreme Court decisions, and twenty five thousand dollars for printing the abstracts, and other tax papers. Of the two last itcas little can be objected, and as to the first, the objection lies mainly in the fact that the state Is in the couditiuu she is. It is estimated the work, which has been prepared with much care, and other thiugs a-ide ut hi-'torically valuable, will c?t, per data, au average of a thousand dollars to the ecuuly; that it will occupy about AM) page*. It may In; a question a* to whether the state can aflWd.it, but thus far hi accordance with lite resolution authorising U, the work has teen done without payment rah g made, it would be a pity to lose the information already obtained.

Columbia, Nov. 4. 1?11 i.e. j tie IM'uucu uvm iiiit-.-iiou, rtiiMdn tuner questions, were lost sight of Ihis evening upon the re-convening of the bouse of representatives. The news that was Hashed over the wires la>t night, that the supreme court of the lTnrtcd tate-, had reversed its decision in the case of the batik of the state, which was argued last month was anything hut welcome intelligence. The decision ii reversed upon the grounds that the old charter of the hank of the state (18021 believe) en' tercd into a contract with bill bolder* to rcoeivethe saiue as taxes; i. e. the state, aud that it was the duty of the supreme ' court to protcot the holders of those hills. The bi'li issued ante beVuiu were di stroyed by net of legislature, since reoonstructiou, and the charter of the bank, repealed iu 18W. The 1 ills issued dining the wa^, lvSGO, 1861-6??63 are those in que.-tion, and w.iivh the tout say are leg* tender fur auy ate k?r is. The case wt-ut u;, upon the refusal J & county treasurer to* receive tneoi for tares, t.ie supiciue cour t of the slate nutarniug the view* he took, that they were A. h?, i _j i h'i 11 i - issaed in aid of the rebellion, and there- tl fore unconstitutional. In the first in- n stance the United States supreme oourt sustained the court below, but upon the a reargument, it has reversed that deeis- d ion. o The legislature this evening, it may be & said, was on fire over the matter. The f house resolved itself into a committee of the whole upon the matter, and discus- t sion followed free and earnest. Hurley; u Bowleyand Boston were the principal t speakers. During their remarks it was v intimated that instead of there being six I hundred thousand of the bills now out- a standing there was was over two and one k half million. The fact that all these 1 could be turned into tbe state treasury in e payment of taxes very naturally created t a great sensation; especially as it is a ? very serious matter to contemplate where * any mo^ey is to come from if this calam- * ity had not occurred. Resolutions were 1 introduced, and are still pending to the 1 effect that the highest tribunal of the 1 government has stabbed the repub- 1 lican party iu South Carolina to the ( heart, and that the democrats, by delays, f injunctions, ic., have so laid the track 1 that nothing remains but to walk over it ? and win the next race. However, the i " " * J 1 scare over, something may dc quuu iv dodge tho impending evil. Several modes have already been suggested, one of 1 which, the most reasonable thus fhr, is to levy no tax, but allow the state trees- i urer to issue certificates of indebtedness. I All agree fur once, that if the decision is 1 carried out in letter the party in this state goes to the wall. Judges, courts and ad- i uiiuistrative officers came in for a round 1 share of abuse, and stales rights were i howled by the more unreserved. The i democratic side of the house, viewed the 1 matter with seriousness, but whether from any common feeling of disaster, or 1 from a kind of gratified mulicc, was be- i yond divining. i Many of the officials, state and national were on the floor, and manifested a i deep interest in the proceedings. < Judge Andrews was unanimously seat- , ed as senator from Orangeburg. November 5. Both houses of the gc eral assembly introduced measures to-day, yet to be considered, relating to the bills of the bank of the state. Many projects are on foot. Those that have seen daylight in the legislature, arc in the senate, a resoI lotion which intends that all the bills of . the bank, shall pass through the comptroller-general's office, to be there exauir ined, and stamped genuine, or not genuine, as the case may be, before they can be taken for taxes by any county treasurer ; this would give time as the expert employed would not be likely to hurry over the matter. The resuscitation of the bank by the state; the appointment of a president and directors, and the riming of the institution by the state, is also suggested as a method of getting out o' the fix. In the executive session of the senate to-day nothing came up affecting Beau fort county. Gen. Whipper was refused confirmation as treasurer of Barnwell county, lu the house scarce anything of importance was done, except the suspension of the operation of the previous question, and limiting the remarks of any member to fifteen minutes, with the privilege of speaking but once on the , same subject. This evening a caucus was held in the hall of the house, called c.- ?v,,? "iiHiftia /,f riwpti?fcinrr th? situa lUi IUC jrui |?v/.:v v? 0 tion. It had been given out that it was to be a caucus of republican members of the general asscroby, hut when order was obtained, it was found that a number of gentlemen of the opposite partv were present, beside a very large number of spectators, among whom were judges, members of congress, state officers and so on. Points of order and motions to iuvite all who were not members to leave, oocupied the time until the caucus adjourned, subject to the call of the chairman. Nothing whatever was done in the way of explaining the crisis, and everybody went homo as wise in this respect, as they came. November ft. Tire day has been made gloomier still, l,r h?nl m,!d min storm now in full I force. Little was done in the legislature beyond routine lupines?. In the house a bill was introduced looking toward an adjustment of the debt?as it may he termed?of the bills of the hank of the slate. While in committee of the whole Mr. Hurley made a remarkable speech, it commanded general attention from bo'b sides of the house; he went minutely into the operations aud history of the bink, aud advised careful, but prompt movement in the matter. Timothy, who usua'ly finds it difficult to keep his gravity, rather redeemed himself on this occasion. aud took his place near the head, \ as if he belonged there from the start. 1 His remarks of list evening, that he had uot always been in the legislature but hai ! been around it agood deal, was strengthen ed by his knowledge ofthe working rings j iu the past, which showed that he had 1 been no stranger to their plans. A good- < ly proportion of the member* are of the j oj>iui<.u that it u too soon to "bulla," and are prone to wait until the decision hoc been received, before they act in the premises. !, There is up to this time no settled line |, of action, and iu fact but very little pro- | LT?"<* has teen made towards any. ' Private caucus*?* will be held, and the I matter fully considered during the re- < tuaiiiiug utghfs oS the week. , November, 1^. 1 The debt puzzle, and the auprciue o >urt dtcition, have sent the brains of the general assembly a wool gathering. It is not a singular fact in this dileiuuia, ' th it where over a hundred and fifty men re at a loss what todo, they should pitch ' upon souie one thing they know how to , d> to perfection. In this instance, it a|>p.!ars to be to abuse toe stale officers, I Whatever their sins ofl omission or com- | uihtfiou may have been the tirade against i X hem isso conducted, that one feels acwit- j essiugit, in the same mood that the irishman did who observed two men sawing log; thinking the large man was eueavoring to pall the saw away from his o-worker, he plumped him in the eyes, t the same time asserting he would sec {| air play. r Poorgtate treasurer Cardozo, (or he of * he poor state treasury) comes in for an tnlimited amount of rapping. To listen 0 o the harrangucl against him a stranger t rould be led to believe that he had ' olketcd half the appropriations. It j cenis, that it is a handy subterfuge to r itve some to load down with blame, r tecause unlike the Great Miracle woikir, baskets full of loaves and fishes cantot be gathered up after all have had a , quare meal. It would indeed be as easy < o drive that camel through the needles 1 iye, as it would to pay two and one ha[f nillions dollars, with appropriations of a i uilliou and a half. That's what's the ( natttv ; aud some people appear to be n a disposition to cast obloquy upon the , reasurer because he cannot do it.

The city Ls rapidly filling with visitors j to the state fair which commences on t Tuesday. Forty race horses, and a large irnount of stock have arrived. The , prospects arc that the occasion will excel t>y far any heretofore held in this city. ' The Granges arc here in force. T^ey , ire almost as much a puzzle as the debt < problem, when anything is said, convey- 1 ing the idea that the organizations arc in any manner political, the members manifest a good amount of sensitiveness. As we understand the matter, this Grange movement originted in a growing conviction among intelligent husbandmen that the agriculturalists are merely "hewers of wood and drawers of water" to the rest of the country. They discovered that, by various combinations in the great cities, tbey were deprived of the proper profits of their industry; that the transportation of their products, by railroad and otherwise, to the seaboard, left them nothing in return for their labor. In many parts of the West, for this reason, eoru was cheaper for fuel than coa' or wood. Millions of bushels of this valuable product have thus been consumed, when, under an equitable adjustment, it would have cheapened food?not only in the form of bread, hut also in meats of various kinds. So that the farmer is not the only person injured. Every man of every city or town is injured, for the cost of transportation is, in a duo ratio, paid by him. It increases the price of his bacon, and makes flour and potatoes', etc., dearer. But in this respect, perhaps, we have no right to complain, for, in all these essential elcuiAts of subsistence, the South should be entirely independent of every other section of the country. So far so good, but when, as actions appear to indicate will he the case, the main purpose rhail be lost sight of, in the political raugling of two fuel ions, they will become an eye sore to the country ; wor.it' than any of tlio political leagues, the day of the necessity of which has gone by. It is quite plain that the motives that inspired tlio western granges havo been lost sight of here, or are being sadly perverted. It is true that the colossial fortunes enjoyed by many have been dug from the soil by the farmer who seldom boa-ts of hut a scanty sufficiency. It is true that but few wealthy farmers arc found, while those ignorant of the produets of the soil roll in wealth It ig right that there should be a leveling down of this great evil, but in the attempt to do it the innocent and inexperienced farmer must not, by any political chicanery prove himself a si If deluded victim.
