Of all M:s. Porrin's auuter>as brothers an I (sisters, twelve in all, only one survive?.? our veuerable townsman Mr. Kobert II. Wardlaw. Mrs. Perrin's noble qualities and b&uuties of character shone inosl in her magnificent home, where surrounded with all tiie luxuries that wealth could be stow, and with a large and devoted family around her, she discharged to the uttermost the duties of a Christian mother and wife, and was an humble follower of that Savior, whose teachings she delighted in, and whose service was her chief pleasure. She was one of a generation ol old men and women whose lives form the history of Abbeville a generation that is fast disappearing and whose places it will be hard to till. Her funeral services took pi.iee in the Presbyterian Church last Saturday morn ing, aud thereafter her numerous family j followed her remains to Long Cane I Church yard where repose the allies ol'j several generations of her kindred. DuPro's Insurance Agency. \V/? a.?I1 Iaii ok^ivhpt'n fii h'w> ui\- i vertisetnent of Mr. DuPre as Insurance Agent. Mr. DuPrehas been in the insurance business tor years and i.s thoroughly conversant and fjiioiii'ir with the details of the business, lie represents none I but tiie most reliable raid Is.ir dealing j companies, and as an evidence of their popularity, and the confidence of our people in the companies, for which he is I agent, we refer to t he gross premiums as returned by the different Companies and agencies, to the Auditor for the year end ing 1st Juiie '81 by which it appears that the five companies, represented by Mr. ImPre have returned as gross premiums ?2,250 bv far the largest returns rendered by any other agency in the county. The law requires each agent t<> make return of the premiums collected, and they are taxed as personal property, and it is also demanded that each agent, and each company shall take out an annual license to do business from the otliee of the Comptroller General, and agents doing business without such license are subject to a penalty, and the policies issued by . them are void. If you want your dwelling bouses, gin houses, or outhouses insured eail on Mr. DuPre and he will give you a good policy, m a good company, and at the lowest rate of insurance. Fnrmau University. The friendsof education in Abbeville county wiJl he pleased to hear of the reopening of the Furinan University in Greenville, under tl.e Presidency of Dr. Maulv. That honored institution in the j-ast lias done much for many of the young men of this county. No better institution than Furinan was ever established, and no better man ever took chaise of a College than Dr. Maniy. Greenville is the growing ci'.v ofthe State, a healthy resort lor our people, and head (potter* for the edueaii in of many of ur young men and maidens. The advertisement of this College appear* ehewii- re in the Press and Maimer, U> wiiich attention is asked. New York Store in Abbeville. Mr. Charles Auerhack will open on Saturday next at Abbeville a superb stock of new goods in the new store room recently built by Mr. Knox, where customers will find itgreatlv to thoir advantage to assemble. His stock will consist of the largest variety of general merchandise, and a full line of notions of evey conceivable kind. lie will present a large advertisement next week, .vhich will more fully show the a Wantages of trading with him. The L.terarv Club. The Abbeville Literary Club will meet on Thursday night at eijiht o'clock at the house of J. Fuller Lyon, Est). The Club will be honored on this occasion with an essav on George McDuflhe, bv Hon. A. f$urf. As no living man knows so much of the illustrious statesman am) orator as Mr. Hurt does, the essnv will certainly be valuable and interesting. As it has been claimed that the people of the State?that is a majority of them ? arc in favor of the repeal of the lien law tlFAIl M it Lil < *{?* In Lllluoit > III. /> II <\L> _ lion to the people and let a vote he taken on it at the next election.?Darlim/tnn Southerner. We say no. Any Legislator who has not independence enough to vote according to the convictions of his judgment, should not beallowed to take refuge under a plea of submitting the matter to the people. The people elect Legislators to make or unmake laws ami they should attend to the business or resign. Mr. William Maoxi.l. who lives between White Lick and Long Cane, says that he has a splendid prospect lor a crop this year. He planted all of his cotton in bottom lands, and he thinks the vield will be far greater than last year, ami that the price of the staple will be higher this 3'car than last. This with plenty of corn to do him, hogs to kill Ac., renders it unnecessary for him to ask indulgence from the merchants who have advanced to him, and he attributes all of his success to hard work, and to practising the strictest economy. Somk of the young gentlemen of the village speak of organizing a (ileo Club. We wish them every suceos-t and trust they will succeed. There is good material for forming such a Club and it can be m.ule the source of great enjoyment to themselves and friends. We suggest first that they learn some new songs and ehorises, as wt> ;.re most heartily sick and tired of the old hackneyed songs of "See that my Grave's kept green," When Gabriel Blows his Trumpet" "Golden Slippers" <fcc., Messrs. R. M. IIaddon A Co. arc now receiving their Fall and Winter etock, which will be complete by the 20th instant. This enterprising firm, by their close attention to business and liberal dealings with their customers can now be ranked among the first and most fashionable establishments in the State. They spare no pains or expense to meet the wants of their customers. An energetic man owning a saw mill could get a profitable job by taking his mill to White Hall. Good white oak lumber is worth {M0.00 a thousand feet in Augusta. On Hard Labor Creek there are untold numbers of the best trees in the country, which the owners want sowed. The timber will be sent off by the new railroad, which is so soon to" run near. Mr. John Wiljckrbon, of White Hall, one of the bost farmers in the county, and who owns five or six hundred acre* of land is now busy sowing oats. He intends to sow nearly all his land, and reduce his plow animals from seven to two. He will plant com on his bottoms, anc send bis mules to market as soon as bis oats are in the ground. The family of the late Col. James M Perrln are about to erect a handsome monument to his memory, <t Long Cam Cemetery. No man ever deasryoel more than Col.

I The Lien Law. jKeoiven Cuuriir.] I Tn order to determine tiie wisdom or policy of the lien law we must look not to the mini- j her who ileiive credit under it, but to the ( lencth of time the law has been in existence, i i i he object of its passogcand whether the mini-; j ] tier who avail ttiem-eives of its provisions aie j |; j Increasing <>rdiniinishin_'annually. The law i j { was passed in is>;?ias a temporal^ measure to j ' relieve our people from : lie <! sohtt ion of the t I war. It lias been in force for sixteen years j | I and its merits as a ba*c of credit and a means j K jo! recuperation has had ample time to b'come j known. Have we grown richer und< r il.??r: r I has the iiuinhcr who cet ciedit under it in-11 j creased?

If any one, then, can show us t j that the lien law is likely to correct its own j . i evils by becoming \ early lessa necessity, then | j we will advocate its continuance. Until, as ! i ! we fear, tiie evils ot the system are extending t | in the number* it feeds and the amounts se-ij ! cured by it, then it can only lend to g- neral 1 i poverty. Is not this the ease? l>o not the ' ( I number and amount ol liens consiunty in- , | crease? I, i The law is one which specially concerns the [ | | farming interests and as the present Legicla- j t tore is coinpo.sed largely of that class, they ! will have its decision. As matter of self in- !, terest professioniil men would oppose the re- 1 peal of the lieu law, us it gives their tenants:, ' credit for supplies without risk to them lUid at the same time secures their rents, but we | lo 'k to the general welfare. If. In the public | judgment, this law promo'es it, then we are i ; satisfied, otherwise no consideration of per-1 j sotial benefit should control any one. lleliev' lng the law unwise we advocate lis repeal, | I leaving toal! their free privilege to entertain | i | and advocate other views, Weall want toS'C : j | the hulk of our population become prosper-'' j ous and independent.

We have tried the lien , 1 law sixteen years and If this class has grown s, I poorer and the law thereby become more nec! ossary, it is evident its influence is not whole- < i some. j i j .Should the law be repealed to take ellect nt i j once? In view of the present short crop all J" ] will agree the law should not be repealed at |; jotice. To repeal it absolutely at- the end of i j one year might be hazardous, but if the pres. I ,[ont law should be repealed to take ellect a | i! year hence and an Act passed tl at for two I, : years thereafter a lien for supplies might be j given on some definite proportion ol tliecrop,! II say one third of the corn and t wo thirds of the ! '' cotton belonging to the lienor, the effect would ! i j be to enable each lleuor to retain some money l' . | and corn for future use and would limit his, j cietilt to his necessities until he made a start. | The system has been In operation too long to 1; cut It oil' suddenly, especially at this time of I, I general disaster: but upon stftncarrangenicnl I of the kind referred to the law would disap?I pear gradually and without, injurious cotise> j qucnce to any one Senator Butler wrote a letter about educa- I i tloti in the State, and advocated a plan to "in- ( , j sure" the success of the schools.

[ Kemcee Courier.] The Abbeville I*resK unit Ilnnner regards tli present constitution of South Carolina a without an "eoual in these United Stales, nut opposes all changes and amendment; While we care but little about the tenure ?. :?illceof the Governor, members of the i.egii lauire, Ac., or whether the sessions be annul ui biennial, we think there are defects in on organic law which should be remedied. W desire no change in the bill of rights or i uny thing of a political cast,and while thepn vision for electing Judges every four yeai does not meet our approva'.yet this com I siand without much detriment. We do ol )ect, however, to those provisions which a tempt to define tiie junsdiction-of courts < inferior jurisdiction and tne election of Ju tiees of the Peace and Constables by the pet pie. The question of the true Jurisdiction < Probata Courts has cost litigants thousands < dollars In this State and we do not belicv there is a lawyer or Judge iu theSlatewh properly understands it today. W'beiht Trial Justices are properly Invested with tii Jurisdiction given them by statute has bee olteti litigated, and as to Constables there not a lawfully appointed one in the Stale, the Constitution bad designated these cmiri and officers and given them such jurisdlctlu as the Legislature might confer by law, the 110 conflict between the Constitution and sia utes would have taken place. We think general provision as to the creation and Juri diction of inferior courts would have been be ter. 'J here are mauy amenduients, which, o examination, might Improve the Instrumeu but. as we stated before, we arc not williug I advocate a cou ventlou at tUls time.

[A'citi attd In some parts of the State there Is a tllspo, tlon among li.e farmers to ask for concesslo trom the sellers of eomiuerciul forillizt-i The farmers used fertilizers liberally an.l e peeted in make a big crop. lu consequence tlie drought, the coitoil crop will he u four less than was counted on. I'lic farmers fe ) that ihey will lie unable to pay their delds full and Want to effect a compromise. The Is no evidence that this desire is general, ai the only place in which readjustment h i.iken practical shape Is in sjiivauiiiili Tow ship In Anderson county, where lifly or six tanners have solemnly resolved. 11> that the ?i tlrst duty Is to preserve unsullied their ho esty, integrity and self-respect; (2) that thi o call on the merchants and dealers in tcrli - zersto make such discounts as their profl e >\iil Justity and as they may leel willing - ivc; < >} that what money the farmers ha' it -dial I be divided out jrro riUtt among all thu i- creditors; ( I) that any man Is a public eiieii r, who attempts to force the collection of deb o contrary to tin; pru ruin plan; (.">) that the ei i- ored laborers shall have all benifits that tl whites can secure for themselves This Is r d adjustment applied lo merchandise and fert e lizer bill*, instead of the St ite debt, and tl tilth resolution brings "Africa into the war d as ('oi. i'ameron has done in Virginia. ; The Savannah Township resolutions arc tv :t likely to tlnil much backing, for il is impra tieablo, on the face ot it. to square the lir 1- resolution with the other four, or tli secoi I, with the third. There 1* some danger to hot il esty and integrity as well as sei:-respcet, whe a person who has the right in lawand moral to enforce his demand for the payment < y what is due to him is branded in advance t n "a public enemy." Suppose too that the me >0 chants and ileaiers In fertilizers say that the e protlis will not justify them in making an discounts, ami that they are, therefore, ui 2- willing to makoany. Is it proposed, then, I defiance of the third resolution, which leavi it to the creditors to say what they can an will do, to proceed under the ttroroht and pu lie enemy clauses in the third and fourlh re olutions? The Savannah Township farme spoke in haute, and will do theinsives moi harm than good. " I There Is no copartnership between the den 0 er In fertilizers and the farmer. General! ' the farmer has the lighl to p.iy for the fertil ' zers in cotton at a fixed price per pound. tills price he can settle for Ihe fertilizers eve 11 the market price be twoor three cents low l* er. while if cotton goes above the option pri< | ihe farmer sells his cotton and pays the stipi * I laled price in money. This is ceriainly an a dj vaiitageous arrangement for the farmer. H r-1 yond the option described the farmer takes It *' chiinees. When heimikesa tine cop and scl " ; it at a lilsh rate he does not dlv hie Ills protl ' 1 with the dealer in fertilizers. Tlie dealers d ;l! not then liol>J a meeting :mil resolve that 1 ''I vl?W| of full crops and Inflated prices, tl * farmers should pay a premium overanu ubo\ 'J! the price agreed to be paid for the fertilize ' j in the Ilrst instance There is no Justice in <*: v | peeling dealers to divide the losses wit hot s | sharing in thy profits They will not do It. !

They say, tni 1' that they would lose less tiy occasional itiiibi r j ity to enforce payment than they would lo; n by acquiescing In the notion that their bll l* are to lie readjusted cach scanm Unit the cro N less than was anticipated. The profits at not larcc in any event, Imstycar the cost < manufacturing commercial fertilizers wt L. | from S-i "><? to $i>jo more tliau In previous year ^land there is no room tor a reduction in pri< . | if there were a disposition to consent to Jt.

I by proposing or threatening readjustmen | The harder the limes, tin? worse the crop, tl: j I more Important is it thai the farmers sha } maintain their reputation for square ilea I in; .| They will then be aide to go on for auottii ,'year. What chance, on the other hand, wl II the .Savannah Township farmers have of ge d tinu fertilizers and merchandise on crcd t next siason? The readjusting resolution . j will contionl them everywhere,and will fine them to "pay as they no" in a way they di c j not calculate on. Not only this, but tli " movement in Savannah Township will injur . the fanners everywhere. Mcrehants an ^manufacturers will not. if they know it. Ic !> | their yoods go into slppery hands, and th 11 slightest manifestation of the readjustingspi , j It w ill impair the cie lit of even those whom , | hoi imnicmaieiy coucei lieu in 11. niKuraii'i will lose confidence anil grow suspicion 1 They will give less credit, and charge bight . I pries where th<;y give credit at all. 11 The merchants and dealer# win take care f . j themselves. 'J hey are rich and strong. Tn fanners, especially the poorer farmers, arc 111 persons who will ssufl'er. In one way oral oilier tliey have obtained the means of carr,} Ing 011 their operations from year to ycai r and, in most instances, have improved llicl : position, 'ihey rely on the lien law to enah! tliein to farm and live next year. Vet tlie Sr 11 vannaii township resolutions denounce as i* public enemy one who claims what Is due t 1' ii11ii under a lien. Tills splr t. If it. sprcHt s will be a worse injury to tne poorer fanner -'than the repeal of the lien law would be. An i i it will be ol no avail to the farmers who ur . jln better position. A bad name Is n heav, ; | load to carry,and a single heedlosact wil ! sometimes put a slain upon a communit 11 tiial it will take years to ellace. i We have spoken of the proposition of tli r Savannah township tanners sit readjustment - There is no other name that tits the plan s I we ll, from the declarations concerning hoi - esty and integrity to the bait thrown to lit - j negroes.

Carp the Farmer's Fisli. f The Cincinnati Commercial says: Durin h the last four years there has been much Intc: est taken in the cultivation of fish as an hi tide of food.

It Is possible that the future farmers ma 1 raise carp as they now raise beef and pork f?, ' table use and for market. J The Staunton Spectator remark?: ? Wo have frequently called attention to til 1 German carp as h fish specially adapted t . the farmer for raising as a food tish in sma -1 streams or ponds. From the Winchester p.i i j pcrs we learn lh>tt. in April last Mr. K. 1 . Thaeker received from the United States Kis t Commissioners a lot of Gorman carp, the lat 1 gost of which at the time he received thei - was not more than two inches long, an weighed not more than two ounces. He pi; ct'ii them in the dam at his paper mill, an i when the water was drawn otf recently ft * the purpose of cleaning th.s (lain, the targes of the fish was found to he ten inches Ion. and weighed one pound, and not one tish i the lot under eight inches. This extraordim ry ineruuse was made in less than Hire ifiontlis. Mr. J.
