The public journals North and South have been recently discussing the ouostion of tho primary needs of , this Section, and among others the j Now York Tribune offers a suggestion. According to the Tribune, though wo ( may need money, or other capital easily convertible and available, wees- , pecially want the means of making ( available.tho largo ynount of unproductive'capital which is in our posses- , Bion?the hundreds of millious of , acj-es of nnused lands which are cov- ,j orcd with valuablo timber, and ^ abound ip precious minerals? lands | "which might bring now three thous- j and millions of dollars but which are ( really worth much moro. As a mode , . "of bringing theso into market it recommends a system of surveys like ( that which has been applied to the I publio " lands of tho United States, I which would add twenty-five per cent j to the value of. our lands, anfd increase j their sale tenfold?also a?' extensive ( system of advertising which would < bring a knowledge of the location, j prices and* capacities of these lands, hojne to every firoside in Europe and } thia country, and which would likely j effeofc a sale of ten millions of aores i por annum, 1 Tt?.ej:o is doublloss much lorco, in these suggestions.. The South has in- j Calculable advantages, which noed on- r )y to be developed; immense capital j tying unproductive which are requir- 8 to meet the wants of a varied ? industry. With a genial climate, fertile soil, and as many other advan- j tages industrial and social as most 8 other Beotions can offer, we need only thalfthese should be?known to be ap- t prcciated. To devolop our resources t we want more people. With a terri- \ Ann*i in Rtr.fi and doublo in pro- h VIJ ... , 4 ( ductiveness, to that of tho rest of the ( Union East of the .Rocky Mountains, ] ve have only one third of their pop- ' nlat!6n. Give us tho samo population and wo will have the same diver- ' sity of industry, the same entorpriso ; and thrift, and in time tho same ao- . cumulation of capital. We invite im migration, and as a means, we accept . the suggestions of the Tribune) but j that journal must not forget that the most sorious obstacles we encoanter ] arise from tho governments whioh , - have beon imposed * apon us by the , North, and also from the persistent j misrepresentation and abuso which i we have recoived fVom the Northern ' journals. Let tho South receive but ! justice at their hands and be allowed , to work out? her material renovation > tinker tho protection of wise and : cqu&l laws, and she will ask nothing else. . 9 A contemporary, V<t South, urges as means of Southern development ?n limjfnil nroHuction of cotton?di versified industry?cheap and rapid transportation. The experi#nce of every day demonstrates tho necessity Of the .first?we must plant less cot. ton or be reduced to bankruptcy. Tke complete vassalage of tho South in evpry department of indos-v try is shown in the following state- ( nicnt: "A Southern farmer puts a hickory [ helve into his axe, the timber for 1 which was originally cut in the South i shipped North, thero manufactured t and turned .to him for his use. Ho } cuts down the forest with a Collin's axe, turns up the sail with a North- 1 em plough, chops out his cotton with a New York hoe, gins tho staple upon < a gin of New England manufacture, , Loops it with Pennsylvania, iron, , hanla it to the warehouse on a Con cord wagon, and ships it to market] ] upon platform oars, while bis small 1 grains are cat, threshed, and prepared ( for sale bv means of Yankee implements, Nor Is this all. Enter the arena of household economy, ypu 1 find the Southerner cooking with an < Albany Btdve, eating from Boston i eartbernware, cutting his food with j Meriden knives, lading his soup .with . Gorham Company plated ware, by 1 the light of a petrdlenra lamp, made t chimney and alii under the murky t canopy of Pittsburg smoke. Come ( io personal apparel, and our first fam- , ilies are docked out in Yankee masons, with Massachusetts ribbons i? r iheir hair $nd Rhode Island car-bobs t jn their ears, while their dresses are i jiold together by Connecticut buttons, Watcrbnry liooks and eyes,- or Cohoes pins. Thus from shoe-latched to hair-pins there is ft mortifying s dependence upon Northern thrift in- 1 dustry. Should we inquire into the $ higher walks of intellectual life, wo 8 find books and paper, pen and ink, newspapers and periodicals mainly c furnished by the Northern States, t until this btate of tfttcr vassal- j >ge shall havo been radically altered he South cannot hope to assert its o o-equality and maintain its claims, c imidst free aud prosperous comrau- ^ kilies. The necessity or cheap transport^; ^ ion at tiio South is shown by the fjict ,hat the cost of transportation of joods adds some 33$ per cent, to th' - * - - XT.... 1 ' jrune cost iu i>ow 1 mm ? saving of 5 per cent. upon#the 8150,000,000 of goods brought from the North would give us an annual eav* ng of tho enormous amouut of $7.>00,000. But our primary need aficr all is population. Give us this and the others will come?capital, diversified industry ? cheap transportation?industrial. social and political independence. * ^ 1 Republican Taxation. I General Morgan in a Into speech mado in Ohio.shows that instead of the . taxes having been rcduccd as claimed by tho Republicans, they have been largely increased; absorbing now one-half of tho annual profits of the productive iudustry of tho United States, which amount to one billion, six hundred thousand dollars. The ^ Radicals claim, that sinco tho close of the wan, they have paid off three hundred millions of tho public debt, but General Morgan establishes the ^ fact that in this period they havo colIn Jnvolinn iwn hillions. SCVCn IVVUU i U VMAI* W.v.A w?, 9 hundred millions of dollars, or moro than enough to have discharged tho tvholo national debt. "The othor day, says he, when adJrossing my fellow citizens in Lancas-or, an intelligent and thoughtful gentleman in* the audieneo called out ind propounded this pertinent qucsion to me. He asked :?'If it takes 52,700,000,000 to reduce the debt $300,>00,000, how much will it tako to pay )ff tho wholo debt?' [tho whole debt s a little less than 12,400,000,000. The calculation is not difficult. To jay off the dobtat the rate and in tho nanner ib has been paid during the 5ast six yoars, in proportion to the imonnt-of revenue collected from tho jcople, it would roqnire 822,600,000,)00 to pay less than $2,500,000.000." Gonoral Shorman declared rocentrfy, hat Congress had roduced Internal r oventio taxes of the people fifty-six mil i ions of dollars, but General Morgan o hows, that whilst New England has t ?eon in a measure relioved of its bur- v lens, additional burdens have been j mposed upon tho far Wost, and otiior ( cctions of the country. J no says: "It is true, my friends t hat in certain parts of the conn try he Internal JRevenuo tax has been rcluced. In 18G8 tho six'New England I States paid an amount of Internal 1 Revenufo equal to 125,000,000, while 3bio paid $12,000,000. New England . laid $18,000,000 more Internal Keve- ( riuo taxes than were at this time paid by Ohio. But how is it to-day? "Ohio ( pays over $16,000,000, while Now England pays only $6,500,000. That i.?, Ohio to-day pays $0,500,000 more , Internal Rovonue taxes than all of the ; Now England States together. The iaxes.have been reduced in the New i England States about $18,000,000 and j ncreased in Ohio $4000,000. , "In 1868 thoStatoof Massachusetts ' r?aid $17,000,000, and Ohio $12,000,000. i?o-day Ohio pa}'8 $16,000,000, and Massachusetts only $4,400,000. llence, 1 you sdo, my friends, that instead of | tho peoplo of tho west having obtained relief by tho change in taxation, their burdens have been increased; their ' Laxes havo been largely augmented. * * we must prepare for one of two things; tho total overthrow of our ^ Aliw AV/il?

Webster's Quarto Dictionary has passed through various editious, each . an improvement upon and an enlarge, mont of tho preceding until it ha ( culminated in tho present magnificent . literary and linguistic fabric. The reputation of this work is not confined to America. Wo find it stated that in the Alexandre case, tried in the ( Court of Exchequer at Westminister Hall, under purely English law, no sthor dictionary,English or American, was quoted or alluded to than his. The Lord Chief Baron, in his dccisions pronounced "Webster's Dictionary a , rcork of the greatost learning, rejearch, and ability," Besides the numerous illustrations with which tho rolumje is interspersed, thore are at the j md sixty-seven pages of the most finshed Tectorial illustrations, represent- ( ng almost every conceivable object n nature, science, and art. It would >e unnecessary, if we were com potent ,o the task, to subject this work to a J iritical analysis. Its reputation is J irmly established. It is built upon a J ock, and can bid defiance to any pet- i y storm that the critics can raise.? < Richmond Whiq, 1 - -p . The Charleston Ntxoa ondorscs k suggestion of tho Now.

Quiet for one Year?Wo are pleased to Icarn that tbo Charleston New, the Edgefield advertiser, and >ther journals are taking a decided jtand against tho suggestion which ias been mado, to hold a political contention or conference tho present rear. Tho noxt year is tho timo for )ur periodic agitation, and wo ruay well devoto the present to our matcriil interests. It is prematuro now to brecast tho political future or deternino the elements which shall control loxt-year's issues. They will all derolop themselves ia good time, and >oint out the pa.th of duty as woll as if safoty. In tho next year wo will lave doubtless agitation enough vithout anticipating it now. Let us lave poaeo for ono yoar at least. Dn. J.

The Associate Reformed Synod. J JIr. Editor: Allow mo to furnish 3 0U with some items respecting tho proceedings of the Associate.lieforined Synod of the South. This Synod met at Long Cane church in this District on tho 14th inst., and proceeded to business. More: tlian sixty delegates and licontiatesj were present. Among theso was a! delegate from Pennsylvania, one from Kentucky, two from -Arkansas, two l'rom Virginia, ono from Illinois, and the rest from Statea not so far away. Rev. Jolin Wilson, of Arkannaswaw chosen Moderator, and Rev. J. L. Hemphill, assistant clerk, Dr. Boyco being the stated Clerk. At the stand in thegrovo, sermons were delivered by the brothron, Grior. Ilo'mphill, (J. L.) Peoples, Lathan, Bolts, Sanson, nnu others. Matters relating toErekinoCollego, to the Missionary work of tho Synod, to Union with the Presbyterian Church, to an improvod revision of tho Psalms and other things occupiod tho attention of tho Synod. A President of Erskino College was clectod, which, after five ballottings resulted in tho choice of JRev. W. M. Girier, tho son of Iho late President. Mr. Gricr is a young- man, not much over thirty years of age. Ho is possessed of fino talonls, fine address, a good preacher, and no doubt will prove a worthy successor of a worthy father. | Ko action was taken on tho subject of Union with tho Presbyterian churches except to decline tho overture. This overturo came up from a Synod in Tennessee and not from th * - %t \ r'. 1* Scneral Assembly of the Prosbyte ian church-, and it conjd hardly be ixpected that the A. It,' Synod Would igree to lot one of its Presbyteries I eavo otir communion a'nd unlto with i inptholr body. i Pisgah near Crowdot's Mountain was choRen as the place lor the next meeting of synod. XUvita urged in its favob that 'it Would be iSftsy of access when ibo Air Lino Railroad is com-1 plcted, that thoro is abundanco fineHvatcrin the vicinity of Pif?gnh,J fine scenery, and the good people propose to entertain, livo near the church. It was in vain to urge the claims of Mount Zion iu Missouri agaiust such considerations! Sumptuous dinners wore prepared every day, and all wcro invited to partake. On Sabbath a very?*largc audienco came up to tho Sanctuary.0 The occasion was one of great interest aijd good order was maintained. "On-Monday, tho re-endowment of Erskinc Collcgo was up for discussion. It was resolved to ruiso a fund of ?100,000. This amount was to be raised by apportionment among the Presbyteries. After dinner on Monday a very agrecablo episode occurred. About a hundred years ago, ilev. Thomas Olarft, M. D., ministered to tho congregation of Lower Long Cane, and it ? ? -i.i?1 ? was rosoivoa to ceiuimuu mu wunHilary of tho organization of tho congrcgation. Drs. Boyce and Hemphill, and Iicv. A. R.
