Judgo Maokoy ou tbo Ilog.
At tlie l ite State Fair Juilgo Mackey was appointed
Chairman of the committee on Swine,
itti'l everybody expected a characteristic report
from hint. The Judge appears to undcrstuud j
an l appreciate the advantages of the native hog, t
to the Farmers of this State, over the sleek, fat (
improved breeds, and at the close of his report !
sets forth those advantages, ns follows: ,
While your committee recognize with satisfaction
the commendable etfort displayed in the
introduction and culture of thoroug-bred and
liiib grade swino of the most improved breeds,
yielding the largest weight of meat and lard in
proportion to the amount of food, which is the
true cconoiiiis principle in raising edible stock,
they profoundly regret that no spcciincu of our
native slock was placed ou exhibition.
We hold it important for ethnological reasons,
that the native hog of Sutth Carolina shou! I be
widely cultivated, ile is to our people the

very iniporhnt business will have to be acted
upon, and vliilc we are not of that class who 1
advocate hs.ty legislation, wo would remind the [

tumidness of the work accomplish'd. If the ;
"gag law' Ji id been applied to a number of
members ay tsic last session, a vast amount of

ilic people Would have been better satisfied.
One thing ivc hope the Legislature will attend
o?tbc payment of State 15.ml; I ills for Comity, ,
Vhoo! or any oilier than actual State taxes.-- '
vo long as those bills arc paid for County taxes,
i) long will tbc Counties continue in debt and
