Our readers generally are a.-are, that by invitation of Governor Scott, several gentlemen had a confe-ence with him on t Monday evening of last week. Among those present it is said, wcre Col. Fair, ot Newberr, Gens Me(owan, of Abbe- g ville, Mr. Hemphill, of Chester, Gen. Kershaw, of Camden, Gen. Easly, of Greenville, Cl's. Wallace and Connor, of Spartanberg, Mknsrs. Sim-tns, of tl Charleston Courfer, UarpVenter, of the Union, and Pope,tbh's and &ell, of (;olumb!a. The olject of the meeting being a solution of the caunc of the "troubies," a free discu!ion touk place, and it would have been strange mded had the conviction not bee,n pretty gen eral. that the pritne "ause of them all was the organitation :nd artmivg of one race ngalnst the other. The "Ui'll" Ie marks "that It was further urged-and not without some show of reasi- that tbe arming of the coior(d iiitia w-s re garded by the whites as dangerous to peace and good order ; and, n hereas, he- t fore such arming was done, men could go to bed in peace and secLrity, uiithout fear of mnlrstntior. no-w they were com- k pelled to go a: med th- n ves as a m: a sure ot seLf p : 1 i. Tie debate on . this subject wa, log l-I exhaustive, but the conc-lu.i-n icached by all was, that the ariii-g .f the coloredi militia was at least an in% i. C ImeasuIe." One of the iots nf the e% il, and a Ireat one, was ar;;ue to be the present status of the L gi.lai u-v, : profligate and irresponsible bWdy, and a represntation I without taxation, a body representiog only a small portion of either the wealth or intelligence of the State. The Union concludes: "Many of the gentlemen admintted that the per centum of taxation was not ex horl-itant, but the assessments were out rageously disproportionate antu unjust. amid that taxes were, in many instances, ten times as high as they oupht to C-c This arikes from the incom,,etetcy of thle issessors,rew of whom actually know any- i thing about the value of property, .i :mHany more being governed more by per sonal spite than by a desire to do j:s r tice. This is no doubt true to a great te extert. "That there are certain abuses in tht Legi.lature which must be corrected, there is no one foolish enough to deny Iand, so long as these abuses exist, therel I isl always be a fruitful e.use for com Tlaint. "These were the two principal pnints discussed, although others were inciden tallv mentioned. "The meeting had no political signifi cance whatever, for polities were no: mentioned, except incidentally, du'i i the entire conference. That the meting I % ill result in good, there is every rt ason to believe, its these geidlemnen can re S turn to their homes inipre.,sed %% i th tie , belief that the Governir really de:ires t d protect the interesti of all classes of citi zes, irre'pective of party lines Another planting season is upon us, and we feel constrained to a.,k the ci-ts e tion', what is to be done this ye-ar? hJav-e our farmers thought on the suiject I--king to their past experi-nce? D. o they intend again repeating~ the same course, or have they yet b camrn- con inced that the all cotton principile is a e ruinous'~ one ? It is about time that the_i were awaking to the immprtance of th,. suject. Valuable time has been lost,.e debts incurred, stock depreciated, and ntold inconveniences and deprivationas experinced in the abortive attempt to aake up losses by putting everything in ctton. It is in rain to expect any: others r. sult from such a policy than trouble ad pecuniary loss. In the daiys of the0 ancient regime, before the surrender, in nevr paid, with labor at command, and which could be controlled. Fuumters I r-v rich then it is true, but not so i:ch by cotton as by the increase in that othier property, and by a moure di r versilied system of crops. Now-, alas. the whiole energy is concentrated on cot ton, with a labor almost entir-ely unre e iabe, and which costs about as much a the cotton brings in mar-ket. Iiow S can they expect or hope to be better of hani they now are, or recover from their: nml a: rasments, if the-y c itinue the b: samne policy. It is absurd and idle, and not until the planters of the S,mth de- g~ :e:moiine to devote less time and breat' 4~of miotn to cotton, and more- to f.ou. er is, and the raising of meat, n ill t' ey s :et out ,if the slough of despor,d. Om of the excuses when talked to about their curse is "we can't raise corn, col t-in is h he oilyv sure crop." This is altogether in take. With the proper care inb ploginig, manuring and planting, corn enin he successfully rai'ed,-evidences suf 'p bient being shown every day in agricul ural paprers to convince the tnost wilful n blind.

A patron of a certain newspaper once said to the publisher: "Mr. Printer, how is it you have never called on me to pay for your paper?"

"Why," said the editor, "after a certain time we conclude ho is no gentleman and we ak him "Oh-ah-yes-I see. Mr Editor, please give me a receipt,' and hands him a V.

HUGHES' ENTERTAINMENT, on Tbursday nigt, in the new Hall, was all and more than was proui-ed in the bills, which is not generally the case in public entertain ments. His powers of ventriloquism are very good, while his feats of magic gave ev idence of an acquaint.Mnce with "presto change" accomplishments of considerable ability. Mr. Gus. Frank, as a delineator of* the 'peculiar" character, is not to be beaten, and we pronounce him first rate. Gaylord, of the celebrated Skiff & Gaylord's minstrels, "ho runs on a big reputation, cannot touch Mr. Frank in his role of a half-starved dar key. Our sympathy was much excited, and we fancied that a good sqare meal going through his capacious mouth, would have been a sight worth seeiti, and have de stroyed the feeling of ' goneness" so much complained of. Take it altogether, it was an excellent and mirth-provoking show.- k Prof. H. promises to return next Summer, and if he comes we promise him a full house. In this connection we would suggest to the lessees of the new hall, that a suffeient num ber of comfortable chairs or benches be pro, cured, as early as practicable, and that chan deliers he suspended for the purpose of light. A seat for a couple of hours ou a rickety board with a nail projecting throdgh it, is far n from agreeable, added to ahich a darkness 8 almost felt, wtlich the dt.zen or two candles did tiot materiality dispel, might have given rise to restlessness on the part of the au dience, had the entertainrncut been less than ( The impromptu episode of the little black dorg 'vas better as goar."

Besides whieh, if the five lists be gotten up, we will give a grand entertainment, in which music, mirth., and good things shall abound, the like of, which has nevr been seen in the old city of Newberry.

GaEAT ExPECTA'r10Ns.-Th1e lamented Dickens wrote hundreds of' pages in making up his famous ttovel, "great expectations" no doubt he had nothing else at that time to do. Not so in our case; we propose just one brief paragraph on the sub'ject, and beg the very especial attention of the ladies while the attempt is made. One of the John's left this town on Thursday last. They wi'l all be sorry to know this. HIe took thae downt passenger train, ad all the moucy lie could get his hands on, and it was no inconsidera ble amount. Had there been a telegraph line in operation John might have been stopped, but there is none, and he was aowdto proceed. Ilis destination no doubt is N'ew York and other important cities, and his principal business to get rid of the money. Had he taken a lady along, how quickly he could reduce his pile: but he didn't. Perhaps he was wise in going a!one; had be taken one, all the rest would have been envious and discontented, and the oh ject of his mi-sion frustrated. That object is to lay ont his mioney in dry goods, dress goods, trimmings and such ottier notions as ladies delight in, and it is with much p!cas nre announced that he will shortly return, and "great expectations" are entertained that his coming back will fill the gentle .sex with delight. This John is the agrreeable and obliging representative of the firm of Messrs Mathias Birre & Son, atid knowing that he stands Hitat in the public estinma tion, we a:e glad in being able to say this much for the general benetit. Newberry, sinace the mietm->rable fire of '66, has been without a suiltaly-appoinit ed hall, but that want is to be s.appli.ed. A hall Si0 odd feet deep by sotnethinig over 40) feet wide, over the new store of the Messrs. Mayes & Martitn, is bei' furtiishied by the lessees for all the pur poses w'hich obtain in a cultivated and progressive busintess community, chief arong which are those refinied in tellectual and social enljoymnents which sprinig from a proper appreciation of the legitiniate drama atnd the tmuses getne rally.
