According to announcement a meeting of thc citizens of tlie surrounding coun try was held at Gilgal Church, in ridge field County, on lu?t Thursday, for the purpose of considering the railroad in terests ot that section. There were also n number of the citizens of ridgefield, Abbeville and Anderson Court Houses present. The meeting was called to or der by Col. Callison, on whose motion Hon. M. C. lintier was elected chairman, and Col. JamesT. Bacon secretary. The point of the meeting' was a conten be tween thc Atlantic A French Broad Valley Railroad and the Savannah Val ley Railroad for the sympathy and sup port of the people of ?dgcfield. The in- ? terests of the Atlantic & Trench Broad Valley Railroad were ably presented by : Messrs. Bonham, Cary, Graydon, Hemp- [ hill, Bradley and Wideman, while the ] Savannah Valley line was advocated by Messrs. W. W. Humphreys and L\ R. Murray. Both lines were aili?- !.ted by Messrs. Butler, Callison and Norris, of ridgefield, and tho following resolutions adopted : Resolved, That tho chairman of this meeting appoint a eommitteoof live, who 1 shall correspond with the authorities of ? rho Atlantic and French Rroad Valley Railroad and tho authorities of the Savan nah Valley Railroad, w ith a view to pro- 1 euro information from both Companies, as to thc ir ability to complete their roads 1 respectively-tho length of their respec tivo roads-arni their proposed connec tions. Rcsutccd, That said committee take tho necessary t-tcps, in addition to what has already been done in that respect, to havo a sur voy tnad?oh both th o proposed routes connecting ?dgcfiehl c. ll. with said two 1 roads, the fluids already subscribid to l>o applied to tho purpos'o for which they were subscribed respectively. Resolved, That tho people in the Western . ido cf lodged ld emin ly urn fully nroiisoil to the importance of Itali road communica tion connectingEdgefioldC. H.and Aiken with tho t wo roads above mulled, and that they are willing mid ready to hear their reasonable part of tho expense of ibo work liv taxation, or otherwise, as may bo found most practicable when tho routo is located IUHI the charters amended. Committee-E. II. Yonngblodd, James < .allison, JomosStrom, A. J. Norris, John ll. Hollingsworth. Tho meoliag was well atondad, and 1 the uttf rm-c lurte*)1 and harmony pre va i I od. At thc concludion of thc murn ini.' speaking thc visitor- ?ero regaled Kith .i sumptuous barbctucd dinner. The meeting WAS :I great soeces?, and though neither ruad ?ecured a committal of thc people of ridgefield to ito particu lar lino, the advocates ;>f both nore satisfied with tho action of the meeting. Those pre.-ent will always entertain with pleasure the recollections'ol their recep tiou ?nd hospitable treatment during the day.

The meeting in Savannah township, i:i this county, wa- the first that undertook to act upon the subject, and the result ut their action wa* tho adoption of liv? r?s olutions, which may h- sumtnari/.ed ;> foi lows: )-t. That it i- their duty lo pre serve unsullied their honesty, integrity and ?elI'-re-pe? t. .'url.

Uh. i hal any 111.111 who at tempt- to collect bis debt!? hy (aw, other than upon t!.o/."< intti plan, is a public enemy, ''th. That they will gi\c their colored laborers the beni tit of whatever reductions they secure. Tho citizens of Savannah town-hip have suffered as severely fruin the drouth a.- any section wc know of. and their mis fortune is no great as to entitle them lo the sympathy of ?ill our people, for they have been singularly unfortunate for sev . TM! years past between drouth* und de vastating hail sturm-. They ure, how ever, not the only section which has suf fered this year, und their movement looks now like i*. would become general over thc upper portion ?d' the Stan.-. Indeed, our whole people have been carried to ibo verge nf a very fearful calamity by the unprecedented > rop failure, but we must be allowed lo suggest lonni readers that their troubles cannot lie remedied by public meetings und resolutions. The Iuds which -tar.- u- in thc face are that wc tire in debt. Wo have obtained icr tiiizcis und supplies under lite promise lo pay for them. There was no condition in the contract which allowed them to be reviewed and .-culed ?it thc end of the year according to the crop yield, and the law holds the crop-and ali uthcr prop erty of thc di btors above thc homestead liable fur these debts, and they can be enforced by snits if tho parlies are dis posed to press them, lt i-. therefore, impossible for the debtors lo arrange what they will pay without the consent ol' tho creditors also, and in our opinion the only practicable road out of our pre-ent circumstances tx for each larmer tu go to bis creditor and make the best settlement with bim that Iiis crops will permit. P.y paying all that he can he will discharge his present ability and duty, -o that any reasonable merchant would willingly extend thc time l"r pay ment on the balance- due. bi 'MS way our people will preserve their credit and most easily overcome their present mis fortune.*. Any other course will produce a very serious condition of adair throughout our country. Any combined effort to .secure a compulsory reduction of the debts due by thc farmers will in duce innumerable enforcements nf liens, and, w hat w ill bc worse for many farmers, thc chattel mortgages upon their stock will also be foreclosed. This general siloing would entail great co upon the debtor-, and would greatly cripple the agricultural interests of thc country. Thc worst feature, however, would bo tho destruction of all credit at homo and abroad, for if such a state (if things should arise this year tho merchants would refuse to sell next year on credit, for they would fear a similar action the ensuing Fall. This would bring every body lo a cash basi-, and thc country in ?ts present crisis could not stand it, Clreat numbers of our people would then l>e ruined, indeed. Hut thc injury would not stop even there. The credit of tho merchants themselves would ho ruined, fur tho wholesale merchant would bo afraid to credit the merchant whose cus tomers did not pay him, fur such a mer chant would be liable to break at any moment. Wo cannot be too careful of nur credit ?it this time, for it is credit that will have to be relied upon to carry us through thc coming hard times. There is another trouble in thc way of avoiding tho payment of these debts, ? it were otherwise right to do so, and that is that the greater pan of the indebted ness for (iuano and supplie? it secured by mortgages or liens, and thc debtor sannot -ell his property covered by :i:hcr a mortgage or a lien without lay ing himself liable to prosecution and im prisonment. It is against the law to sell :rops or property with alien on it, other wise than by tho cotisent of the party holding the lien. As thc law now stands, rent baa thc first lien, and then thc lien tor supplies or guano comes next, so that it is impossible for tho far mers to carry out the third resolution of thc Savannah township meeting, with out running tue risk of conviction nm! punishment in the courts. Tho crop will have to be applied to the debts according to the security given lo secure them. It is important for our people to understand this, for without it many good men, thinking they were doing right to pay =omc on all of their debts, might for Lh cir mistake be sentenced to imprison ment ami fine. Now, we have no idea thal ihc present trouble cannot bc survived and overcome. If we bravely moot the m our people will 'ion by economy and energy recover what they have lust To do so, however, wo must keep up the confidence anti credit which Smi been established be tween our people, and tho way to do this is for each mau who owes a debt to go squarely to thc man bc owes and tell him bis condition, pay all that bois able,and arrange to go forward next year in order to make nj? thc misfortunes of this sea ion. Wo have no idea that any man who docs this will lind any trouble lher.d of bim. and by doing so he will perform n? act which >yill increase svlfrespict ;ind thc respect of his neighbor* for him a-.d <-r ". hi- children ti ftc h;rV. v-ill have reason ttl tc proud.

MIK MIN l>ISCt.'V?t0> ?Mit- strange fuvt connected willi thc I agitati '.. of the repeal of the Lien law is ti.at we hear of no men ?ho give Liens ! asking i /r * !.r repeal of tim- law . The clamor . onie- entirely from men who do j no? r. M- them, and who, therefore, are not so well prepared to -ay whether the law j. a necessity or no', a? th?.se wini make I ii-, ol' ii to secure Uni' necessaries. The law will nu! bc- ri p?ale 1 until the parios who use it ask its abolition, or until those; who favor ?Ls repeal show | that thu law injures them, ll will not do j for on?-j irtion pf the community to show that they could make ui"re money under ! some other system >jf agriculture. I ii0 j qu< -'.?on i?. will the repeal of the law give j tho great...... good to the greatest number? j If it cad beshowii that it will, then we j would favor its repeal, hut until wc can : see some reaso' 'o suppose that it will benefit the greatest number of mir eiti? j rons wo shall oppose tito effort t<> -.'euro j a repeal. Its repeal ni the close ??l a j disastrous '. r ip year would be great hind- ? ship upou the poor.-i tenants and small ! landowner* who have no other means j of cicdit. It would injure tho largo landowners who rent thc lands and do not wi-h to personally supervise the man agement of labor. Lt could only benefit tho-?* wbo have the means and the in clination to hire labor for wag? - and work their laid- themselves^ Thia cl.ii* i- in the minority, and could only bc benefited liv reducing wag' s ami making th" laborer entirely dependent upon th? in The land owners can em ploy laborers for wages now unless the laborer prefers to work otherwise, and il lu does prefer another mode of winking, and can lind -onie other landowner will j ing to rent him land, he should have that privilege, li the landowners would re fuse lo rent lands they could force tho laborers to hire lo them for wages, but the law should not force the landowners to hire labor for wages if it t uits their pur poses better lo rent their lands. Lach landowner should be enabled to man ago his lands as he pleases, ami each laborer or tenant should be entitled to make the best contract bc can. Hy this means energy and thrift are encouraged, ami the most general prosperity will bo diffused. lu order to reach this end, thc simplest, cheapest and safest means ol' credit should be given lo all classes. Such credit is a benefit to the laboring class, and a protection to those who give them credit. Those who urge the repeal of tho Lien law have not given us any idea of the system of credit they would establish. Tho fact is, they virtually w ish to destroy credit. This would causo greai hardship to all poisons who have not a year'- sup ply ahead, or tho moans ol' paying cash for them. It would make hired laborers ol' over six hundred white families in Anderson county, aud would embarrass some live hundred small landowners. In addition to this, there are many own ers of large quantities ol" real estate w ho cannot work their lands directly, that in consequence of the inability of tenants to secure credit would be unable to rent out tl eir lands, and even where they rent them out they would have no secu rity lor their rents. Jn urging the re peal of any system, it is not enough to show that it is a bad system. Those who advocate repeal should be able to give n better system. This the advocates of repealing the Lien law have not done. Tho Abbeville Medium some two weeks ago published as a rumor that Col. Fish er had given President Latimer seventy five thousand dollars to complete the Savannah Valley Railroad to Chatta nooga. The Netts mid Courier tried to ascertain the facts as to the rumor, and j found nothing to sustain it. l here has been no gift to tho Savannah Valley Railroad, and we imagine our contem porary, the Medium, was merely endeav oring to draw out a statement of thc aims and purpoiesof the parties controll ing this enterprise. There may have been a great many rumors, but the fact is tho Savannah Valley Railroad ba? a gixid prospect of an early completion. Re youd this, nothing has been published, and our friend cannot make any discov ery by tho adroit system of pumping he has adopted. The only answer wo have io make to the publication in the Medium i-, that wo had never even heard of such a rumor as that published until we saw it in the Medium. The Engineer corps are still at work in the re-survey of the Hine Ridge Rail road. We have been unable to learn anything definite a- to thc intentions of tho Clyde Syndicate, which owns the mid, but we hope th.- prospect for ?is completion is good. The Clydes own a continuous lino of road from Charleston to Emory (lap, on the Cincinnati South ern road, which would be completed and in running order by the building of thc Hine Ridge, in addition to the link they are under necessity of building, by tho terms of their purchase, from Knoxville to Emory Gap. The b .'liding of the Hluo Ridge would give them the short est through line front Cincinnati to Charleston and the Atlantic Ocean. Its completion would develop a magnificent property and tend greatlv ..> build tip the whole State. No ,rcater blessing could come to us in ti o railroad line than tho cotnnletlori of the old Blue Ridge. Thc Clydes have "gobbled up' the Virginia Midland Railroad, and left all of U3 who were expecting another great through route from tho North to the Southwest out in tho cold. The Clydes arc fast cutting off all possible lines which may hereafter become competi tive.

The nilieers must bo General Carr. Captain Iiemig, Lieutenant?'Carter, <?onion, Stanton and linns and Or. Mt-Creevy. Tho White Mountain Indian reservation is located about one hundred and sixty miles north of Wilcox, near the line of New Mexico. The trihe numbers about liftecn hundred in all, ?ind they eau muster four hundred warriors. This is the- only tribe of Apaches which have not been whippet! ii' o subjection. They were moved in IS7o into tho San Carlos reservation, hut were recalled and returned to their old hunting grounds, where they have been ever since. WASUINOTON, September ?.-The fol lowing telegram was received at the war department this morning hy Acting Ad jutant General McKocver, from General Mc lionel I, tlated September -d : "The following has been received from the commanding general of the department of Arizona, (luted to-day : Tiffany tele graphs a report from the sub-agency, that an Indian named Mickey, brought* word that a number bf chiefs aro coming in with their bands, hut that Pedro with all his hand and others arc on thc warpath.

Thc mas sacre then began, thc Indian scouts tir ing on th?? white troops, und nearly every white waa killed. Three compa nies of calvary ami a company of scouts under Gu orton arc on rout" us reinforce ment. No courier has yet como through and all aro supposed to have been killed.

Those wdm escaped are lighting theil way to l-'.->rt Apache, tint their success is doubt ful. 1'cdm's baud attacked Fort Apache, hut the commander of tho department thinks he must have boen repulsed, and that bo now holds tho canon through which the road from Camp Thomas to Fort Apache passes. At the town oflico of the United Suites army no definite information has been r.[ved regarding the reported massacre of Gencrnl Carr and his cominan.I. but the officers infer that tho report is essen tially correct, nnd that an outbreak on a Beri?us neale haa taken place.

The tenant i- satisfied ii he makes colton enough to pay the lion, ?md is indi li?rent to truck pat?nes und improvements . f any -ort. A nd this lo iiigs us to tho fourth olijectioit tu tho lien law, because it luis established ?ind perpetuate- the all-cotton theory to the hazardous neglect ol' provision crops, 'l ins suicidal [ioliey, together with tho short erops. i- likely to tiring tho wolf to the dont of immy a household hitherto strangers to want. 1 .ustly, we come to consider thc remedy or substitute tor the lien law . Wo say uiihesiiatinlv cash vs. credit Pay ?is you go is the philosopher's stone that turns everything to gold that it lonchos, hut ho?? .-an tho poor man without money , and i redil practico this beautiful iheorv? , We answer, he has a nevi r-failing minc ot' .. redit in the bono and muscle uf his i brawny arin-, couplet! with a bravo ami willing heart, which will command thc money anywhere. 'The demand for Tann laborers this year could not ho met, ?md to-day there is a erv coining up from every quarter, send a* aide bullied labor ers. They ;. < wanted in tho (arms, work-shops, itinting-rootns, railroads, factories, evi p when- thor- is un increas ing demand '"or malo and female lahore:-, at remunerativo cash prices. Hero is a HUMUS of credit that w ill novel' tail so long as timi gives health and strength. Hui it' tho farms aro deserted for theso j otlu-r avocations, is there not ?langer that many of our farms may lie- idle for tho w ant of cultivation ? Not likely. Tho ocetip.itinti of cultivation of tho soil pos sesses attractions for tho average laborer hoyond other occupations, heneo tho va cant farms will be hrs' occupied Hut how is Hie poor mau to run his farm I We answer, nguiu, by Iiis labor. luau average family of six childreu, niuo limos on: of teti, one or more of those who aro able to plough can hito out. ?ind, by th- monthly stipend, pay cash for tho bread tor tho entire family. Indeed, thc landholders are ?low offering to women and children u share of one-third C. ono tilth in as much hind ns they can culti vate, tho landholder being at all the ex pense, except tho hoeing ?ind gathering of tin- crop. In this way th" weakest labor of each family (run be utilized, ? hi;-Hie moro able-bodied can make a .support for tile lamilv by hiring. If, however, tho tenant desires it, ami lim labor of tho whole family eau li- best utilized at home, tho interests nf the landlord will biinur him readily to Uif> assistance of ids tenant ill procuring sup plies at a very little ?idvanee on pash ?.ricos, where the cash cannot he bad. Usually, tho money can ho lind on good personal security at tho lawful interest. Hm- savin- to tho tenant, ?it tho very least, ?itty per cent, on his purchases. Wim is so much entitled to this saving as th.- man who digs and cultivates tho soil ? Nono ! none ! One other view of the matter ?md wo have done. When hard pressed the ad vocates for a lion law say, well I would he in favor of its repeal, ii' tho br.mostead law goes with it. 'lhere is this dito-roneo betw een tho two : ono is a legislative ?let, which can be repealed at any limo by the enacting body, while tho other is coi bed ded in tho Constitution, and cannot bo changed except by a chango in tin- Con stitution. And wo notice that the Judi ei <iy Committee, appointed by tho last L gtshiture to revise tho Constitution and suggest auch changes as tiiey think best, docs not proposo to interiore with the homestead law. Nor do wo think it necessary or desirable. According to Hie construction of tho Supremo Cuiirt of this Stato, tho hoad of n family can waive his rights under tho homestead ii' ho sees proper, and tho waiver will be enforced li*' the Courts. So tho argument thal Hie I ii law and homestead have a necessary connection falls to tho ground lt is high time that we should, as a Stato, return h> tho old beaton path ot our lathers, make our suppl io? al home, spend loss than wo make, an i pay as we gO.
