Delinquent one quarter : 212, 214, 264, 271, 272, 205, 300 and 364. With sorrow wo furnish the roll of de linquent Granges this week, believing it is more from ne.rligcuce than inability or indisposition to discharge a solemn duty. Brethren, pauso and think what will be come of your interest If you allow your Granges to die out. Already the specu lators ero rejoicing in your negligence, aud aro threatening to make you furnish the bagging and tics on your cotton bales freo of charge. Continue this listlessness and the fetters will soou begin to tighten about your limbs. The National li range. On Friday, nt 7 p. m., tho 30th of No vember, the National Or.mge adjourned its eleventh session, which bad been a most harmonious one, often days' dura tion, at which thirty States . ?re repre sented, principally by Master with their wives. X>n account of the oenth of the Mas: jr of the State Grange of Tennessee, that State was not represented. Sickncts of the Master prevented South Candi na's being represented ; and, from causea that we cannot explain, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana and Arknnsas had vncnut scats on the floor, and the Master of Iowa was absent. Oregon, California, Dakotab, Kaunas, Wisconsin, Missouri, Mississippi, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, New York and Vermont sent new Mastern to Cin cinnati. The personnel of tho body was lint improved, though not materially changed. Tho feeliug was, perhaps, moro fraternal than bas ever existed throughout any former Beasioii. There was no sectional feeling manifested Ht nny time. The purpose of every member teemed to be to legislate, so for ns he was able, for the good of all tuc people. ! Even in '.:.e election of officers there seemed to he no clannishness. There was a strong disposion to re olcct the retiring Master, Jones, of Ar kansas, and it wan only ofter eight bal lots that Adams, of Minnesota, was elec ted Master. Woodman, of Michigan, waa re-elected Overseer ; Whitehead, of New Jersey, was elected Lecturer ; Vaughan, of Mississippi, re-elected for the second time Steward ; Sim*, of Kan sas, a new member, Assistant Steward ; Forsyth, of Illinois, Chaplain, a Metho dist minister of twenty years' standing; McDowell, of New York, was re-elected Treasurer, and bas held that office since the organization of thu order ; and the a?me may bc f>nid of Kellov, of Louis ville, Ky., who was re-elected Secretary ; and also of Dinwiddle, ol' Indiana, who has been Gatekeeper since 1873. Ellis, of Ohio, was elected u member of the Executive Committee; ho bas for Ave years been Master of the State Ornngo of Ohio, is a Methodist minister also, mid has the reputation of having been a reg ular "Freedom Shrieker" in tho days when "John Brown's BOUL went march ing on," but is now as tender and cooing ns a turtle dcvo, and seems to have a soul full of fraternal kindness for all his brethren and^ "the rest of mankind." The writer of this anlclo was again for the third time elected upon tho Execu tive Committee, and the third member of said Committee 'a n Minister of the Gos ?ol, of what persuasion we do not know, f tho strength, purity, co-efficiency of an Agricultural organization is dependent upon the number of clerical brothers there are among its officers, there need bo no fears about the National Grange. Tho legislation of the late session of the National Grange was perhaps better calculated to popularize the Order than the legislation of former sessions. Much complaint has been urged by large ngri cult?ral Statea that they had no more representation than the smaller States. A quietus has been put to this complaint by the National Grange submitting 'a, the Sinte Granges for their ratification or rejection an amendment to the constitu tion, which reads thus: "Each State shall he entitled to two votes in tho National Gffog9; and ari additional vote for every j 10,000 paying members in excess of IO.? 000." This will, if ratified by a constitutional majority of Statea, give an increased in fluence, but not an Increased representa tion, on the floor of tho National Grange. At present Ohio has a paying member ship of over 40.000} if tills amendment passes, Ohio will have, with that mem bership, eight votes on all questions, but fiho will have only two rep re?5 c ii tit t i v ea- - tho'Master and bis wife. South Carolina, with lesa than 10,000 paying member*, will have brit two votes. As the consti tution stands at present, Ohio has two votes, South Carolina has two votes, and Connecticut, with . but twenty-one' Granges, hos two votes, provided the Master and his wife are both present. If either ia absent, each State has nut one vote. We hope the State Orange of South Carolina will, at Its next session, ratify this amendment ; for as nt present con stituted the National Graugo ia n body whose representation is based upon noth ing but the arbitrary provision of the Constitution, which for no reason says that any State having fifteen subordinate Granges may ?end a alaster and bis wife to represent thorn in the National Grange. There la no representation based oitber upon property or autnbers. The 40,000 members of Ohio pay annually *2,000 into tho treasury, which supports the Na tional Grange. Tho 600 Patrons of Con necticut pay but 926 annually into the samo treasury. Reason, justice, equity, everything demands that those 40,000 ohould have more power than that 500 in the Notional head which they reta lively susta'D, And as Increased repre sentation would mako tho body unwieldy and too'expensive, it was thought most advisable to simply increase theiafluehce without adding to tho expense. Another amendment was submitted, which, we doubt not. will be ratified by & large majority of Staten, to-wit : ' The * minimum fee femembership in a subor dinate Grange shall be : For men three dollars, andior wome-i ono dinar, tor the four Negroes." At present, the charter-mo robers, or those who organizo a Grange, pay : Men three dollars, and women fifty cents ; but, when a Grange is once organized, cn in itiate pays five dollars ff a male, and thurn dollars if a female. Tho proposed amendment makes it uniform, and makes the charter-members pay the same that is exacted of the applicant for initiation. We have often been told by farmers in Mouth. Oarolinn that ther desired to jcis the Grange, but it cost? too much." If this amendment is ratified, tbcro caa cer tainly b? no such excuse offered by any man who wishes to be forced from his Isolation into the social, intellectual, moral and^ material association of bis friends and uo?g?ibo?*. I? ?sracr -nd his wife cannot see a pecuniary benefit of four dollars in such a step, he must be an Ephraim indeed, (ind should be let severely alone. The Constitution ot the National Grange saya that every a> * rication for ? charter, for a Subordinate Grange must . bc accompanied by a fee of fifteen dol li in. At the recent session, of tho Na -? j*M?? tinuura the. executive committee' BKHH^hstructcrl to arrange to roturo to th? 'treasury of the t?tate Orange seven loUtswi and a half of every auch fifteen. charter. Of coursa, a list of nil newly organized Oranges will be kept by thc secretary of the National, and thc execu tive committee at their meeting next Oc tober will estimate Ibo amounts due to each State Orange, and neild a check for ? each amount to the State Grange trean" (II. i. Should South Carolina organize one hundred new Granges by next Octo ber there will be paid UtirrO into her treasury. Would \>, not bc wise for the Slate Grange to put a lecturer in the field, and pledge him a portion or all of thia money for every Grange he organized? There aro Patrons in South Carolina competent to do this work most satisfactorily, und who would revivify the dormant Granges and resuscitate the Order all over the State. There is nothing that to-day re flects more severely upon the far mei s of South Carolina than the fact, that they are so unorganized ns farmers. We have, perhaps, 40,000 farmers in the State. These men, with their wives .uni chil dren old enough to be eligible to mem bership in tho Order, would perhaps number over 100,000 souls. We nave far leas than 10,000 in the Order. No other occupation has tried so hurd and succeed ed so badly at organization, and why ? This is a question we have often tried to answer, but bave never been able. Farmers are intelligent but not grega rious ; they seen) to love isolation, ?nd this is perhaps from their necessarily iso lated life. And South Carolina (armers are more difficult to move than the far mers of any other State in tho Union. There was no other legislation of im mediate concern to tho Patrons of thin I State. The National Grunge determined to memorialize Congress upon thc necea* j sity of making thc Commissioner ol' Ag I riculture a Cabinet officer. They ?Un I resolved to ask Congre** to m> revise the I Patent Laws as io prevent lin- extension I of Patent*, and to protect the parties buying patented articles from publie ven dors ; also to remove tin; tax on tub.teco so as to allow the producer lo sell a cer tain amount on his farm, und also to open up the (juif ports ami increase tho postal and commercial facilities with Mexico and thu South American Slate*. Singular as it may neem, hills upon nil these questions have latterly been intro duced into Congress, by parties coming from States largely agricultural. Did they snuff the blowing storm or thc taint ed breeze ? If HO, it was organization that did it, and why would not organiza tion in thc agricultural State of South Carolina produce the same effect? If the farmers of the United Slates were as organized as they should be, Congress ional und State legislation would he quite another thing to what it is. Hut we are not organized.-/>.
