They are well expressed, pointed and brief. The plan is an efficient one for fusing the people togethor for the protection of their property and for the detection and punishment of the plunderers of the oonntry. We very much need to learn the lesson of oo-oporatiou. If the honeBt people of the 9 tu to were united and would work together faith? fully, they could very soon produce a salutary ohange in their condition. The one thing they stand most in need of is faith in right and in themselves. The immediate duty is to form Unions where neighbor may meet with neigh? bor, and a common standing grouud be settled upon. There is much to be done. There is a part for every citi? zen to perform. Now is the time to form Unions, and to organize for the work that is beforo as: Whereas, the enormous increase of taxation, and the misapplication or embezzlement of the taxes, when col? lected, will reduce both the proprie? tors and laborers of the State to ruin, the undersigned do agree to form a Tax UnioD, for the purpose of restor? ing an honest government and an economical administration of State and County affairs. To this end vre adopt the following rules, and earnestly invoke tbe aid of all honest citizens, and especially the active co-operation of the young men: 1. This Union shall be known as the . Tax Union. 2. All tax-payers of this township, without regard to party or race, are invited to become members. 3. The officers shall be a president, secretary and treasnrer. 4. The Union shall hold segular monthly meetings. 5.

The president shall immediately oau8? such report to be forwarded to the president of the County Union. 8. The president, or any two mem? bers, may call extra meetings. County. Unions. ? L. The Couuty Unions sball be composed of two dele? gates from ouch Township Uuion, and shall meet at the Court House, o-u the first Monday in every month. 2. There shall be elecled ot tbe first meeting a president, secretary and treasurer. o*. The president shall cause all per? sons reported for uuy violation ot law, extortion, misapplication or embezz'.e meut of public moneys iu his Couuty to be presented to the grand jury, witti tue u a rues of the witnesses to support the charge, lie may also em? ploy counsel to assist the solicitor in the prosecution, when, in bis judg? ment, tbe same oe necessary. State Union ?1. The State Union shall be composed of three delegates from each County Union, to meet in Colombia ou the fourth Tuesday in November, uud at suoh other times and places a- the executive committee may appoint. 2. The officers shall be a president, three vice-presidents, secretary, trea? surer aud executive committee. 3. The executive oommittee shall be composed of two from each Congres? sional District and the President of the State Union. The delegates from the Counties comprising the Congressional District to uotninate the members of the committee from that district. j 4 Each delegate to the State Union shall huve his actual espouses paid in attending the meetings of the Uuion, to be paid by the Couuty Uuion of which he is a representative. 5. The executive committee shall elect its own chairman, and shall meet at the cull of the chairman or any two members, at such times and places as he or they may appoint. Their actual expenses shall be paid by the Unions thejr represent. G. This executive committee shall have power to cause nlll State officers, accused of any violation of law, to be diligently prosecuted, and may retain counsel for that purpose. 7. The treasurer shall deposit all moneys received from the Couuty Unions in some bank to be selected by the president, and report the amount so deposited to the executive commit? tee. 8. All moneys expended by order of the State Union or the executive com? mittee, shall be paid by a cheok drawn by the chairman of the executive com? mittee, and the treasurer shall report to the State Union, at eaob meeting, an exact and particular account of such expenditures. 9. The treasurer shall receive a com? pensation of five per cent, on all mo? neys thus expended. ? ? m* When asked by a friend at tbe Fifth Avenue how sho liked her new name, she was able to pucker up her pretty mouth enough to say that "It is Sar toris-faotory," and her friends feel a calm confidence that after that sho can? not be sea-sick. Library Agency fob tue Purcua.se of Books.?Mr. P. B. Glass, of this city, who is possessed of ample facili? ties and experience, makes it an im? portant part of his business to fill orders for books of all kinds for public or private libraries or for individuals. Orders for American and foreign books of every description, whether for whole libraries or siogle books, will be promptly and carefully filled at the lowest publishers' prices; and works not published in this country will bo imported from abroad.

Article 2 of the By Laws was so amended as to allow all landlords to become members upon puyiug the small sum of oue dollar as initiation fee.

The Wa.r. on tile Tiiieves ?The Grand Jury of Clarendon County, "after due examination and strict in? vestigation, have found official mis? conduct, habitual negligence, corrup? tion, fraud and malfeasance in office to have prevailed to such an extent on the part of the oSicials of that County," that they felt constrained to present them. Tho three Commis? sioners are accordingly presented in six counts for defrauding the County out of a sum of money aggregating $T,476. Along with t!&e Commission ere are presented Y. N. Butler and J. T. L. Thames, on a charge of larceuy and fraud, foi haviug bribed the Com? missioners to- sign warrants on the County Treasury in their favor, with? out having rendered any services whatever. Tho present Commission? ers and their predecessors are both in? cluded iu the presentment. Their names are Moses M. Benbow, Titus Mellett, W. P. McKnight aud Syfax Melton. The hut named was a mem? ber of the last General Assembly. The Grand Jury of Williuiusburg County have presented William Scott, Robert T. Scott and Ambrose Tisdale, County Commissioners, for official mis? conduct iu mukiug coutracta with themselves and drawing drafts in favor of themselves, based ou such controls. They also present Philip Heller, Couuty Treasurer, for puyiug out the Count v funds without sufficient orders, j uud W. W. Ward, the Sberiil' of tho , County, for fraud and corruption in { office, to wit: For perjury and for offering bribes to "certain executive aud judicial officers with intent to in? fluence their acts and decisions in the discharge of their official duties." Money Abundant in England. ? Tho uucrring indicator of the state of the money market in England is the rate of discount ut the Buhk of Eng? land. We learn by telegram that the rate tixud ut a meeting of the directors was three per cunt. The rate for mo? ney at the Stock Exchange, on Govern? ment securities, was two and a half. This shows that there is an abundance, of money, and that there is nndraiu of specie worth speaking ubout for fc 1 reign countries. Tho vast accumula? tion of capital und the favorable state of exchange in England, result chiefly from the ability and prudent foresight of her statesmen aud capitalists. Financial matters are managed well there, and always with a single eye to British interests. With us, ou the coutrary, there is a lumeutable want of statesmanship and foresight, aud everything is oonducted iu a slip-shod I mauuer.?Netc York Herald. Tue veuuo has been changed in tho case of Arthur A. Glover, indicted for tho murder of Willie Gomillion, aud tho case goes to Newberry for trial. Wbeu the application for the change wus made by Glover's attorneys, at the Edgefield court, a few days ago, Judge Carpeuter granted it on condition that the case should go to auy other court but that of Aiken, because ho thought that public sentimeut had been as much manufactured here, perhaps, for Glover, as it was represented to have been against him at Edgefield. Our readers will remember that Glover wus acquitted of the murder of Lovett Go million, the father of Willie, at the last term of our court. As the killing of the two took place at the same time, and tho same evidence will be relied on at the trial in Newberry, Glover's acquittal there is almost absolutely certain.?Aiken Tribune. Since tho beginning of the present year, diphtheria has been epidemic in New York and adjacent cities. Tho mortality from the malady has more than doubled for the same period last year. The health board records show sinoo Deoember last, 403 persons have died of diphtheria, against 203 for the corresponding period of last year. Among the oases last week, there were those of fivo of the family of the late Lewis Benjamin, residing at the cor? ner of Canal and Broadway. Some years ago there whs a worthy German io Baltimore who took unto himself a fair daughter of the Father? land. In about a year Haur* better half presented him with a fine heir, when be exclaimed, "Yell, Katriue, dat isb goot!" When, iu a year after? ward, she presented him with a pair of twins, be said, "Veil, dat ish petter dan de oder time. I tricks more ash ten glass o' beer on dat." But when, a year later, she preseuted him with triplets, he cried out, in ugouy, "Miuu Got in Himmel, Katriue, vat ish de matter of you? Petter you ah top dis pizue8s fore dere ooines a village here!' It haB beeu ascertained that the co? lored man, James Walker, who stabbed and killed Uiram Cochran, colored, at Anderson, three or Jour weeks since, is ' the party who was in the custody uf Mr. Mitchell, the internal revenue of? ficer, when he was waylaid and killed in New Pickens. Walker has cou fessed who tho parties were who mur? dered Mitchell, and they will be ar? rested when they cau be found. Walker has beeu eeot to the Pickens Court. It is enough to make the mouth wa? ter to read iu the latest California pu nor to hand that strawberries are arriv? ing in San Francisco at the rate ol thirty ton* a day, aud that the choicest varieties are to be had there at four cents a pound.

The Congress of European Powers which is to meet ut Brussels. July 15. will consider the subject of interna? tional law duriuig a time of war.

In a short time, Mr. H. came on the scone, and seeing the clothing of the party, and none of them, thought they were drowned; but what a change, when one man in red jumped from a tree and two from the bushes, shooting war-whoops and brandishing olubs. With the rapidity that fright will urge, Mr. H- ran to town, swearing that he had been attacked by Indians, and barely escaped being scalped. But when Mr. M- oame to town and told tho joke, somebody came near being scalped. LlBUABX of the good TeMPLABS.?

To all, particularly iuvalids, spring is a trying season. Indications of sick no ?s should ut once be attended to. Fatal diseases may be caused by allow? ing the bowels to become constipated, and the system to remain in a disor? dered condition, nntil the disorder has time to develop itself. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of care, is an old aud truthful suying. Therefore, we advise all who are troubled with the complaints now very prevalent?head ache, indigestion, disordered liver, wsut of uppetite, nausea, or feverish skin, to take, without delay, Schecck's Mundruke Pills. We know of no remedy so harmless and decisive in its action. It at once strikes at the root of the disease and produces a healthy tone to the'system. People never need suffer from any disease arising from a disordered condition of the liver, if they would take this excellent medi? cine when they feel the first indica? tions of the malady. Families leav? ing home for the summer months should take three or four boxes of . these pills with them. Tbey have an almost instantaneous effect. They will relievo the patient of headache in one or two hours, and will rapidly oleanso tbe liver of surrounding bile, and will effectually prevent a bilioos attack. They are sold by all druggists.
