A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.
The Ierall is in the highest respect a Fam
ily Newstaper. devoted to the2 nIterinl in
terests og the eople of this County and the
State.' -It circulates extensively, and as an
Advertisig medium offers unrivalled ad

The Tax.
For the week past there has been
little else talked about or thought of
outside the enormous amount each tax
payer of this County is expected to
pay into the Treasurer's office. The
figures are startling, and men are sick
at the exorbitant demand made upon
them. The tax has been swelling
gradually for years, each gathering
being heavier than the one preceding;
with that' experience the tax payer,
growing accustomed to it, and expect
ing nothing else, paid up his tax with
as good grace as possible, but now at
one fell swoop the amount is Dou;tE,
and men who had prepared themselves
to pay according to the levy made by
the Legislature, fUd to their bitter
disappointment, to their consternation,
that their assessments rendered ia. on
oath, have in nearly every case been
made twice as hit.. The amounts
which they expected to pay and had
laid by for this purpose. out of their
scanty earnings, they find is but
half enough. With many thiL will
invol,e rali, and more especially com
ing in a time of stringency like the
present. If the oaths of the people
are not considered. why we ask were
they called for, why should they make
a retari ? It would have been as
well, or better, for the Assessors to
have gone to work with their books
and the lights b-fore them, and fixed
up this gross fraud without troubling
the people at all. The result then
might have been anticipated, and the
tax payers woul' either have prepared
for the worst by saving all of their
money; or have consulted together for
the purpose of testing it. The thing1
is monstrous ! We have even heard
it said, but know not if 'it be ti-tie.
that the Comptroller General acknowl
edges that the demand upon Newberry
is excessively large. ~We give him
credit for saying so, and hope that he
did. It looks very much now as if
the fable of the goose which laid the
golden egg is to be rehearsed-that4
the insatiable greed can not wait the
slower if not surer process of the past
few years, and that now the exaction
is for all. We gave the Republican
party credit for more foresight, andI
that they would have instructed the
army of assessors, 'arbitrators, gather
crs, &e., to have been more careful,
and not to seare the prey by making
too rash and exorbitant a demand.
But we are mistaken, and wi doubt
not they will find themselves mistaken
also, for thelle is a point beyond which
endurance ceases to be a virtue, and
it seems as if that point is reached
now.4
Treatment er Im.migrant.
Every thinking man is aatisfied
'that immigration is one of the most
imnportant subjects that can engage the
at-tentioj of Southa Carolinians. The 1
people are b3comuing alive to its ium-1
pprtznee, and are beginning to put a
forth efforis to induce an influx of
foreign labor. -We need it in the town
in the country, in our workshps,1
and at the plow. The efforts to inducet
ilurigration are now being crowned<
with suecess, anid no one who has the
good of his country at heart will fil
to assist or knowingly do anything to:
imnpede the work. But there is so':ne
thing different from the course here- 1
tofore pursued that is necessary to re
tain foreigners aifter they have comre,
and, through their representations, to
mal:e others eager to come, an d that1
is a ehange, a radical change, in the
manner oif treating them. They must
not be expected to be satisfied with
coarse fare and poor accommodativus.1
They musit have neat and comfortable
ctta~Wges, and such fare as they have
been used to. They shguld be paid
promptly and- liberally. They should
be treated kindly and courteously, and
not in a harsh and unreasonably dieta
torial manner. Those who were once
accustomed to conmmand must learn
to give their orders as to equals. Pa
tiencee, too, must be brought into
requisition.' They are not to be ex
peeted to adapt themselves immediate
*iy to our manners and customs. They
most be instructed in our modes of
cultivating the soil when their own is
different and inferior. They are not
to be made the objects of insulting re
marks, nor the laughi ng stock of sense
lss idlers. They must not be inter
rupted in the observance of their pe
culiar customs whe-n not illegal. If
ayare desirous of purchasing la.d, it;
ould1,e isoil .o them on reaonable
Sw.-nder they go from one p!ee to
LmoIther, 1.ping by cleang tu bptte!
heir -urrva::dings. If hunect. ar'
hey should be supposed so until found
it to b. otherwisc,- they are equal
; their honest employer, and superior
o thi~r dishonest employer, and there
,re should be treated with oonsiders
ion. I
if oupOPle will thui deport then
4elves to the stral.ger itmigrant whet
-ke Com, he will feel that he has
Alund a home, and he would not bt
human, if he did not desire antd 'er
coarage the friends he left over t! e
water to c>:ue and labor among a Ieo
ple so just and liberal to himself. In
addition to the dictate of humanity
md honesty, policy requires us to act
toward the immigrant in an equitable
nanuer. 'Honesty" in this inStance
is the best policy."
It is very true the immigration
.ovenent is no work of benevolence
o foreigners. Self is the most promi.
ient figure in this, as in everything
.lse. But the very best way to serve
elf is to extend the hand of friendship
;o the strangers, and not to withdraw
t as soon as they have accepted it
d come here on the faith of it.
We give the land owners of South
arolina the credit of having suf
:ient shrewdness to seize upon the ad
rantage now in their power. We
xope soon to see an immigration so
iety in every county of the State, and
determination to m*ke s friend of
very foreigner who sees fit to east his
et in South Carolina. Let not this
novement be a bubble of caprice, a
nushroom notion, a thin whiin,.to be
>rsted, smas' ed and,dispersed at the
irst blow of difficulty, but a resolute
leterrination,.the -effaing .of neces
ity, unalterable and wdeftigable.
Brier Keutios.
A number of the tax-payers of
darion County had a meeting on the
tinst., to consider the avessmest
f the Board of Equalization, which
hey unanimouny resolved was- enor
nious. They resolved not.to pay the
axes nor to bid Oeach others pro
erty if sold for the same.
The army of Grangers is growing
-apidly in forces. A report dated
Deceber 16th gives the number of
odges as 9,297, aggregate member
~hip, 697,275, of whomi 350,000) are
oters. At that time 194 lodges were
n South. Carolina. What good may5
lt this mighty organization of sturdy
eomanry be able to -accomplish
Judge Cook, at the complaint of
Fohn Bauskett, on< the 7th inst.,
panted an injunction restraining the
tate Treasurer from issuing and the
anty Tresrers from receiviug the
ertiioahe of indebtedness for taxes.
But after giving the subject a more
areful consideration, upon his own
notion, last Saturday, bhe rescinded
he order upon the ground that the
-omolaint did not state facts sufficient
o constitute a cause of action. Had
he injunction not .bein quashed it
rould have gane very hard against
hose who exchanged greenbacks for
he certificates on the faith of the
tate. Even as it is some have suf
ered.
We notice that three more of the~
en sentenced to confineemt in the
lbany penitenatiary under charges of
u-Kluxing, have been recently par
Lned, viz: Win. :ltamsay, of York

Wearn, as we learn, was a untive o
the Irl6 of Man, from which place hi
waSIbrought to this country, and set
tied at Charlotte, N. C', with hi
father and family. Subsequently, 6i
re,ided some time in Newberry, bu
has been a resident of golumbia for
perhaps, fifteen years. He was forty
five years. of age. At 10, yeterdaj
morning, Coroner Coleman summone<
a jury of inquest, which, after th<
usual investigation, rendered a verdic
that "he came to his death from a pis
tol wound in the head, inflicted b'
himself, while laboring under a fit o
insanity." The suicide occurred be
tween 3 and 4 o'clock in the morning
The instrument used was a Derringei
pistol. Mr. Wearn was enthusiastic
in the pursuit of his calling. -He wa
a member of the Masonit fraternity, ir
which he attained a high degree. H4
was hi.ghly regarded by his friends
and died without-fos. He leaves ai
interesting family, who have the sin.
eare sympathy of the eommunity in
the sad and sudden bereavement whieb
has befallen then.-P itx.
Mrs Margaret Wearn, wife of the
deceased testified before the coroner'
jury "that he had threatened to kil
himself for some time past. He go
up out of his bed in the dark, and
Pid that he was erazy. Immediately
heard the.report of a pistol; think it
wasabout-three o'clock in he morn
ing. His pind has ba4n affected for
some time previous to ;his. He has
always been kind and affectionate to
his faniily."-Union-Herild.

here, however, anid we Inow -make tht
offer to antie all the difficult knots a
satisfactorily: as possible. - We seled
the following questions .and answers,
from another paper, as a sample t<
show how the thing can be done:
A disconsolate maiden writes: "A

he have ceased to love me?-for I know
he did, though he never said so. If]
thoght he had, it would break m'
heart."

next time he calls take a monkey

of a public nature we never refuse t<

together a different thing. It is a fami

idle curiosity regarding the family af

Blonnt. of Georgia, made an effectual
speech against the Civil Rights bill.
He argued that the Supreme Court had
decided against its constitutionality in
the slaughter house case. He'said there
was no necessity for its passage. The
colered race did not want it. The State
of Georgia had made ample provision
for the enforcement of all rights to which
the colored race were entitled. He pre
dieted mischievousresults*to the colored
people; said the bill would engender
hostilities between.the two races, and
result in denying to the negro the educa
cational facilities now provided by law.
He appeals to the - Republioans not to
impose this monstrous measure upon
the South. His speech was manly and
dignified. and was highly complimented.
It is rumored that Grant will veto the
Civil Rights bill, which causes a flutter
in Republican eireles.
