The first, matter considbred is THE PUBLIC DEbT, ityhllch is now $6,522,188.54, co'usisting of Brown consols, valid Green consols, deficiency bonds, and agricultural land scrip. THE UlEVENUES OF TUE SrATE. The total revenues.of the State and counties for the fiscal year commenc- t ing November 1, 1883, n as about $2, 089,000, of which about $1,936,000 was raise(d by taxation, and $153,000 from phosphate rQyalty. P'he collection of the taxes was unusually full and satis factory, nearly 98 per cent. of the assessed State tax having been collect ed, and nearly 86 per cent. having been paid into the treasury. The net re ceipt for each mill Nlvied was $145,000, being an Increase of $4,000 over the preceding year, and $25,000 over the year 1878-'9. The taxes for the fiscal year 1884-85 are now being collected, and the result cannot, therefore, be reported. The levy amounts to $1, 8:31,494, divided as Iillows: b'or State, - 841,526; for counties, $677,148, and for schools, $312,820, not inlcluding polls. ( .It Is eatimaled Ihut it will reunire $403.000 to meet the ornliarv ex penl&es of the Governtnent for the fiscal year 18885-80, and $391,000 to par ihe linterest on the public debt. 'these amounts will be increased by such additional appropriations as inny be required by legislation, and will be decreased by the phosphate royalty and1(1 alny surplits that may remai'n in the trcaurv. As these alinonil aIre rontimgent, ai consequent ly :n nknowI he necessary levy can only be deter-' mined when the eiieraI Assemlbl v prepares the ttnnlual supply bill. T'IIE '11(SISIIA'TI ROYALTY. The phospl)hate royalty for the yera i enin g 3() Septembi er, 1 885>, amwoin t ing to $176,241.11, has b)teen colleclted in full- being the largest sum yet cov- I ered into the treaury from this source. I The y-ield for the year en(mtinr 30 Sp tenher, 1886, will probably not exceed $150,000. 1)ISAInEI) SOLDItS. Coinnenting upon the recoinenda tion ofthe Coinptroller, tlnt $30,0004an iually be app."opriatedt 1or a pension of $30 each to disabled soldiers, the GoVernor says: "h'le State can never fully discharge her oblibrations to the brave men who, in obelience to )ler call, have sulivd permnln(ellt injury in health or in limb; but she should con t.ribute, if possible, to the alleviation of the waits of such of them as are without the means of supporli, and are Incapacitated for milantal labor by reasoni of diStalbililies incurred1 in th'e dtischlarge of ditty. While those who can claim this recognition of services to the State (iminish in unber each year, the infirmities of the survivors andl their nieed for help, conistanltly ii crease." TrIrE TAx L.aws.

The length t of thie school term wvas three andl a I half months, a decrease of half a mno:rh. The total amount of funidst available for school purposes dlurinig the year 1883-84, the latest p)eriod fib- c whi'hl reports are at talinable, wast $P16,580.38, of which $441,599.:I7 was collected durinig the y-ear, and $73,..

The Governor nrges the adoptioni of 5 some measure by which thie school I Iind may "'catch uip" f . ti.e "lost year*", and teachers be puid.

Vhen a Northern farlate- passes Itliough the Southern Status, he is sur- p prisec, and pained-if of a sensitive nature-to see so many keemingly bar- co ron fleld,; bare, excepting when cov- al cred with the prevailing brown sedge al of the various, exceedingly poor, f Creeping ilants called Japan clover, which includlc several.kiuds of Lespe- n dcza. These old fields are scarred with gullics, or washes, caused by the heavy ralins, which loosen (the fin~c red b clay and carry it down the slopes. Naturally, a stranger thinks these bar- ltr ren fields to be worn out and worth- w less. This is a g.teat mistake. They at are turned out t(, rest, while a pieco of c new ground is cleared and cultivated, di, ald aftler a time takes its turn of rest, and the old field is plowed up and 1 cropped again. This is the Southern C1 substitue for mlanure, an(d is rcal l b ab method-an exceedingly poor one, i is true--of fillowing.
