'Wo pifbiish on our first page the Memorial of tho Tax-payers Convention to Congress, which presents a ( I ,clear aDd full exposition of tho grievances nuder which wo aro suffering tfrom heavy taxation, and makes a iCalra and temperate remonstrance .against tho evils which have brought ^his state of things about; and we ynow mnko some extracts from the .Counter-Momorial, prepared by the ^Republican Committee, which want of space precludes our publishing in 'iiull. The Counter-Memorial makes ' ?tbis statement: toThe statement that "the annnal /expenses of the Government have ratfranced from four hundred thous. and dollars before the war to two 8 millions and a half at tho present p time" is entirclv incorrect, and the f. .items of expenditures given to illus- r .ifcrato And -provo this statement are ^wholly 'inaccurate and untrue, and a skillfully selected to deceive. c Tho yoar 1865 66 is given in such fi a manner as to convey the impression ^ .that tho expenditures under its head ^ .arc for two years, especially when ,?873 only is given at tho head of the c lother column, so as to show that it is unquestionably for one year.

A largo meeting of our citizens was held in the Court House on Monday last to receive the report of tho delegates to tho Tax-Payers Convention. On motion of Hon. Armistead Burt, Hon. T, C. Perrin was called to tho chair, and W. A. Lee and J. C. Homp hill requested to act as secretaries. Mr. F. A. Connor, ono of the delegates, was first called upon, and responded in an earnest and interesting exposition of the action of tho late Convention. Ho said that tho Convention called for the samo purpose three years ago was thought by many to havo failed, but according to the statement of President Porter, its defeat of the Funding Bill was enough in itself to vindicate it from such a chargo. To judgo of the spirit of tho late Convention, it was ncccssary to have been present. Some hasty and ill-advised utterances were made, as might have been expected, bui the action of tho Convention was cnlra, temperate and dignified. It met ! without distinction of party or race, neither as Democratic or Republican, white or colored, to deliberate upon tho best means of rescuing the State from ruin. A committee had been appoiuted to memorialize Congress, and the memorial which-had been prepared by that committee and sub- 1 milted by the honorable chairman of 1 tho Abbeville delegation, he characterized as calm, temperate and dignified and as conclusive in its statements. A committee had been appointed to j address the people of tho Slate, and J i lioii* nhlfi nddresa und resolutions in- ' voked curliest effurt and thorough j organization iri the several Counties. ] In this matter the colored people ( were equally interested with the < whites, and needed onlj' to bo in- ( formed to cooperate heartily. A comniittcc] on Immigration had been J appointed, and this coinmitttco in j their report recommended the ap- t pointmcnt of State and County Com- ( niissioners, as well as the establish- 1 ment of a New York Agenry. The * subject was one so much at the heart | 3f the people that it required no ar- v *ument to enforce its claims. A a jommitteo had also been appointed to \ iiemorializc the Legislature to amend s .ho tax laws, and a memorial had ^ jocn sent up. The Convention had ' ?ounsclcd no violence, and in this its { vetion met with the hearty endorse- v tnent of the speaker. He hoped that s pcaceable remonstrance would have ' .he desired effect. IIo was listened s Lo with much attention, and was 1 liearlilv applaudo Tho Hon. Armistcad Burt, the ^ L'hairman of the delegation, next ad- ^ Jressed tho meeting with his accus? a loraed force and eloquence, giving a j rery interestm" review of the action J B a )f the Convention, and presenting a ,'ery hopeful prophecy as to tho re- i suits of its action. The Convention it the outset of its deliberations dis- ^ ;laiuicd any political interference ^ iv ho lever. The U. S. Government was uiiy recognized by it, and the Stater government as established by the Jonstitution of 18G8. It was our a iuty to obey, and we -had no design ^ ;o attempt a change in the civil and i & 0 political rights whicii were guaran.eed by the Reconstruction Acts and j( .he Constitution of 1SG8. Our pur- ' )ose was to reform, not to destroy, md it was to the interest of our pco- ^ )le,-both white:nnd colored, to unite . ' ' li n the effort to sccure lelief from op- e >ressivo taxation. The bitterest de>unciation of the evil of Republican ule in the State comes from Rcpubli- y :an papers, and the colored people tl hould know it. He quoted from the t| 7nioit~f{erald and other llepublican u ournals in support of theso statenonts. lie adverted to tho fact that ^ ho payment of the tax is always re- ^ uired beforo tho abatement will be g, onsidercd, and compared it to hang- )r ig beforo trial. The credit of tho g tate was gotio, and in spite of heavy jt ixation and its onorous penalties, v tie money was swallowed .up in the ^ icrbenian bog" of Radical rapacity, ? laving tho honest creditors cf the tate unpaid. Lands to the amount gl f several hundred thousand acres rcre sold, but in quantities too largo irft poor man to buy. Tho counter- 1>e lemorial admitted the principal ft atements and charges of the Tax'a}'ers memorial, but only excepted ) the aggregate amount of tho sums p, barged to have been taken. Being jtl barged with grand lai'Cony, tho lie- su ublieans plead guilty of petit lar-' 5^. :ny. They do not deny guilt, but!yC lead only in extenuation. The Dcaker real from a lute speech of [on. R. B Elliott, which used much L ronger terms than were to be found nr 1 the memorial. With regard to the Ti iterfcrcnce of Congress, he thought nd mt if that body had tho right to II ut us in our present condition, it w< >ultl not bo questioned that it had ic same right to relievo us?It had le same power now as in 18C8. It sc ad been chargcd that we had brought Lj ie evil upon ourselves by our refusal th > participate in the work of rccon- an ruction. This he thought highly T1 iijust, as the great body of our peo- Rc lo were then disfranchised and could co 5t participate. He entertained Ban- au jine hopes of tho result of the ac- as on of tho Convention, and tho Re- Ci lblicane of tho Stato themselves are ol] J , ii ' Ti ?I ; - * beginning to fear tho withdrawal of the President's support. Public sentiment at the North had been aroused, and the corruption here was a stench and offonco to' the honest men of the party elsewhere. It wou-Id require something mofe than a magician's wand in the hands of Elliott to reform tho parly -by any efforts within it.- Reform must come from without. After an earnest appeal to men of all classes tO unite in the work of reform, the speakei4 Con eluded amid much applause. On motion of Col. J. S. Cothran, the following resolutions were adopted : Resolved, That this meeting has heard with much pleasure the ahle and interesting report 01 the Delegates appointed to attend the TaxPayers Convention. Jiexolvtd, That we heartily endorse the action of the Convention,' and pledge oursolves to carry out its objects. On motion of W. II. Parker, Esq., the meeting adjourned. Til OS. C.

The women's movement against the liquor dealers in Ohio and Indiana has met with encouraging success, and has stimulated similar efforts in other States. The liquor traffic has been almost entirely broken up in the small towns, and like results are hoped for in the larger cities. Prayer meetings are organized on the side-walks, and in spite of wind and weather, of closed doors and obdurate hearts, the religious exercises are kept up, until the patience of the liquor-dealer gives way and he is forced to succumb. Some of the religious journals are discussing the moral phases of the subject, and doubt the legitimacy of the means used, and the permanency of the efl'eets. They say that whether the traffic be lawful or unlawful this is not the way to put it iown. In the latter case, let the law be ?nforced; in the former, let the law be F?
