A Grange for Ilorry,
The beneficial results derived to the
farmers of other sections of the State
from their combined action in the union
associations of the Patrons of Husbandry
t hroughnnt the country arc seen
and appreciated by the farmers of
Horry. A petition with all the names
necessary to obtain a charter for a
Grange in this county has been sent
up to the State Grange by the substantial
and leading fanners in this
section of the county. In response
to that petition the State Grange
Lecturer, John A. Barksdale, Kscj.,
writes 1 >r. Norton that be "will make
.trrangements to organize Granges in
Horry as soon as possible," and regrets
his inability to be in Con way boro on
the first Monday in April, as we were
in hopes be would be.
The want, ol perfectly organized
agricultural societies in Hony has
tended more to retard her growth
and prosperity than all other local
Hansen.
The more practical a farmer is, the
more be feels that he is not per'Vet,
and the morn he feels his want of aid.
assistance, council, advice, :uul aiiove
all a competiuv e stimulus to successful
results in his tanning operation. This
is not all; alter the sweat of his face,
the product of his year's toil is garnered
and prepared lor market, he
wants to realize its full value. lie
has not labored the year round to make
plethoric the pockets ot middle men,
and to feed the. drones who sap the
morals of society; his occupation is a
higher and nobler one, it. is the first
given to man after his fall, whereby
he obeys God and fulfills the decree of
nature, hirst of all his family aie
they for whom lie toils and ihey
should enjoy the blessings of the fruits
of his labor, thereby giving to him
happiness ami pleasure in knowing
that his labor is not in vain, for the
good idleds of it in fruition of his harvest
gathering is only sown in good
soil to he gathered in the rich harvest
ot improved, well cultivated moral
society in days to come.
No agricultural association has ever
yet been formed so well adapted to the
wants of the tanner in all ot its practical
wot kings, for his and his family's
good, happiness and enjoyment is that
id' the I'airons of Husbandry. And
now that the halt is soon to be opened
in this township, we earnestly hope
that it will be kept moving, and that
when Horry's agricultural banner is
unfurled and thrown to the breeze, the
name of a grange in each township
may be marked iipmi it. To those
ivho have doubts as to the good of the
society, and are so conscb ncious pane*
ilons that they are aliaid to join a
icoret organization least they should
ommit themselves to evil and a poitieal
heresy, we ask them to read
lie platlorin of the National Tatrons
if Husbandry adopted by the order
n St. Louis, which we publish in
his issue.
The Free Schools.
The effect of 1 'arkerV misapplication
d the school fund lor 1873, has proven
i blessing to some of the counties, if it
s death to tree schools in others.
Abbeville is jubilant over the apmrtioninent
allotted to her; no furth;r
excuse for ignorance to brood over
hat county; the tree school fund is
implc and sufficiont. Hear what the
Medium says about it:

Jiditor (rn ion- llernhl:
Sin? An attempt has been made to
cast the blame upon me lor the failure
of the joint resolution ant horiy.ing
the Attorney-General to institute legal
proceedings against Mr. Niles G.
l'arker, lately tlie State Treasurer, ;
Iroin becoming a law. 1 desire through
your paper to make a simple state- I
ineut. As soon as tin1 joint resolution :
came into my possession, I gave a receipt
lor it, ami, at the earliest oppor- I
tiinitv, I handed the joint resolution :
to the Governor's pr vate secretary*
and took a receipt therefor, which I
hold, dated March lt>, 9 a. m., and
signed by my Iriend Mr. C. J. lionsIon.
More if required.
Very respectfully,
ii. ?l. ma.wvkll.
The points in this matter are plainly
these: It is admitted that this joint
resolution, with other Acts, was ratified
Tuesday, March 17, before .1 p. m.
It is all-gcd that in the record press
dook ol the Governor's private secretary
the joint resolution was noticed
recorded by its title as of March 17th,
1874, and the leaf torn out, because it
was a deficit; error, and the receipt
xvas actually given on the 19th, Thursday.
It is supposed that the private
secretary gave the receipt for the res- ,
olution immediately on its delivery.
And the<pivstion recurs, why a resolution
ratified on Tuesday, March 17,
was not delivered and receipted (or
with the others? Lost, we suppose;
but how lost and by whom?
Since the above was put in print 1
we have received the following letter
from Senator Maxwell:
Jut it or Union-lie raid: i
Sik?I am truly sorry that lam \
compelled to appear in print again coneernin.5
the joint resolution. The 1
Phoenix says that I took the joint res- j
olution to the Governor with a hatch t
of bills, and got a receipt for it. I de- s
sire to inform the editor and the pub- 1
lie that such is not the fact. As chair- i
man of the Committee on Enrolled <
Uill, I have never received at any
time any bills from Mr. John Harre, i
unless he first took a copy of the title, <
which he is always very carclul to do.
Whilst I am charged wit It ihcdelivery i
of Acts, passed stud ratifies!, I sun not j
vise watch-dog of the Legislature, and ! t
sim only responsible lor bills coming ' \
into my | i sse *si??n. My impression ! ^

in the Senate Judiciary Committee s
room. Mr. l>unn and my sell could c.
find no trace where any copy of the t;
title of the said joint resolution u as ^
taken; hut the one relative to Mr. p
Kimplon proved to have been the one l s
presented. Nor could Air. John Ikirre j p
iind where any cop> of the titles was, j
ii any was taken. 1 immediately pro- i ,,
corded to have a certified copy en- 0
rootled. went in seaich of the 1'resi ,,
dentol the Senate and the Speaker H,
of the House and Mr. Joseph Wood- n

1 he bill at 8 o'clock, and took a receipt ;
i therefor. After Mr. ( . .1. Houston
| went to his office, he wrote another
; receipt, and the proper date was put
in at my own request.
Sincerely I do hope this will sot at

The act ol Cov. Kemper o( Virgini:v,

excited great ill reeling against him

government of t hat citv in the baud*

dI i In' whites. In Petersburg the
black* have a majority oi voters, while
the whites owned by far the greater
propotion oi property. There liavo
been great extravagance and incapacity
in the municipal administration;
the citizens who j>ay the most of tho
taxes being rendered powerless
to regulate the extent and character
of expenditures. To remedy
this the Legislature passed a bill ippearent
1 v modi-lied upon '.lie plan of
governing N ew York by commissions,
and it is I his bill which Gov. Kemper
has vetoed. In his message returning
the hill to the Senate, the Governor
says that ils prmisions are in his opinion
such as would subvert the principles
of popular government in theii
a| plication to tlm municipality of
IVtcrsburg. Its enforcement would
withdraw irom the voters of that city
a great propotion of the power to control
its government-, and lodge it in
the hands ul officials created by legislative
act alone. It proposed to transitu*
such power lrom the people to
a Hoard ?>t Commissioners deriving
their authority solely lrom the bill
itself, and w hile it retained the usual
city odices it stripped many of them
ot important and essential functions.
'I he hoard was to appoint and govern
policemen and the engineers and assistants
ot the Fire Department, and dispense
other official patronage, and to
disburse public moneys through its
own orders drawn directly upon the

would have inflicted upon Petersburg

Farmers to tho Front?a Convention of
Farmers Proposed.
To the Editor of th a Union Heral:
Winxhboko, S. O., March 21, 1 tt74.
^ni-To the farmers and all other
gentlemen ot the stato ol South Carolina,
I address these few lines, in order
that wo may know how to redeem
our State. Out; first object is to feel
each other's care, and, necoud, for
white and colored to unite, lor wo
have been divided too long, and as
long as w<* arc divided our State will
he iu trouble. Our State will in a,
nhori time own nothing if white and
colored citizens do not come together.
Have you ever read the I'.Ydd psalm,
which say$: "Behold, how good and
pleasant u is lor brethcrn to dwell to?
gether in unity;" also, read the 5th
ihapter of Duteronomy? I shall uot
quote it. Yon will see that every
word calls us to come together. Ia
tact, all the Scriptures invite ua to
Dome together. It' the white and colared
citizens would come together,
;>ur State would lift up her head ami
Dur wives would rejoice and our ehil1
ren would sing the song of Zion.
Will the farmers hold a convention
for that purpose in each county, and
then in Columbia? I think this would
io more good than rebuking the pubic
officers. It is simple in ua to turn
swine into our corn-fields and then rebuke
them loreaiingour corn. Neith?r
one can redeem the Stale in a .bad
condition, Wo lound it bleeding, and
irooping, and dying. Shall we leave
t?
No! no! for the Lord is great. He
s above all other gods, and will help
is in the hour o! danger. A house
livided against itself cannot stand.
May tl,? L. >rd bless white and colored d
vhoaro crying for bread. Help ui ?
>oly Israel, together! Let us sweeWf*
ive together. Let us die, and each a
tarry crova receive, and reign abovd
he sk'es.
