. Greenwood, December 16, 1874. Mb. Editor: At a meeting of the Abbavills County Ooanoil Patrons of HuBbandry, held in this plaoe on the 16th instant, during tho dieeuaaion of the subject of "Farm economy, as ap: plied to the kind of produce grown, the extent of operations and quality of the work done," it was Restlced, That the attention of Pa? trons in Abbeville Oounty be earnestly invited to a consideration of the ne? cessity of sowing a large area of their lands ia grain, with a view of dimi? nishing the area in cultivation, thus securing a diminution of expense?a higher, more thorough, and remune? rating return for labor?a renovation of their lands?an abundant harvest without daily expenditure and a com? parative exemption from the annoy? ance and burden of a large number of laborers. Resolved, f urther, That we, as agri? culturists, think that we have oeoaBion to cheer up under the brightening prospects of the fnture, as indicated by the statesmanlike utterances of his Exoellenoy the Governor in his inau? gural address, and earnestly hope that as he has the power, he will see that the people are relieved from oppression and misrule. These resolutions were unanimously adopted, and the Seoretary instructed to send a copy to the Governor, and to the Oounty papers for publication. The subject of "Cheap Transporta? tion" was discussed, and a petition sent forward to the authorities of the Greenville and Oolumbia Railroad, re? questing a reduction of the present tariff on ootton, and a modification of their entire freight list. "The expenditure of public funds, ss exhibited by the late report of the Oounty Commissioners," was freely discussed, and elicited the following preamble and resolutions: Whereas, in these days of general demoralization, individual credit in measured alone by individual charaoter; and whereas individual repudiation in any form whatever is immoral, illegal and wrong; and whereas the tone and character of the oommunity is equally dependent npon the honesty and faith with which it defeuds its credit; there? fore, BS Resolved, That we, the farmers of Abbeville Oounty, do denounce the policy of our public servants, hereto? fore adopted, of creating a debt or debts, and subsequently repudiatiug the same when presented for payment. Resolved, further, That we appoint a oommittee of three to investigate this matter and employ legal counsel, if neoeseary, to test before the courts the question, whether the debts of tho County cannot be regarded as a legal tender in payment of County taxes. Adopted unanimously. A vote of thanks was tendered to the members of the Grceuwood Grnuge, No. 9, and also to the citizens of the town, for their cordial reception and generous hospitality in entertaining the Council. Coonoil then adjourned to meet at Due West on third Thursday, 21st January, 1875, at 7 o'clock P. M. A. M. AI KEN, Sec. A. C. C. 8tate of South Carolina, Executive Chamber, Cotatmbia, December 15, 1874. A. W. Aiken, Esq., Secretary A. C. C, Greenwood, S. C.?Dear Sir: Yours of the 14th instant, containing a copy of resolutions adopted by the Abbeville County Council, is received. I consider myself fortunate to have been able to deserve the commenda? tion expressed in your resolutions. For the agriculturists of our Stute, as for all who are engaged in producing the wealth of the country, I have the most cordial respect. If my adminis? tration shall command tbeir approval, it will be a BOuroe of great satisfaction to me. Of course, what I have marked OQt in my inaugural will be carefully followed by me, unless better modes of reaching the desired ends shall be feinted out to me. In all this I trust shall continue to receive your ap? proval and support. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, D. H. CHAMBERLAIN, Governor. LeoisIiATIVS.?The Union-Herald says: The cost of the session of 1872-78, so far as known, was 82130, 000. There are now on tho market an unknown amount of certificates issued in excess of the appropriations. The salary aud mileage of the members, pay of subordinate officers and at taohees and incidental expanses were all inoluded in one general appropriation, so as to make it impossible to obtain the relative cost of each. The appro? priations for tho session of 1873-74 aro specific, and in that respect at least are an improvement on the year previous. For instance, for salary and mileage of members, 8103,000; joint orders, $12,000; pay of subordinate officers and contingent expenses of House of Representatives, 845,000; pay of sub? ordinate officers and contingent ex? penses of the Senate. 830,000; con? tingent expenses, $25,000; total, 8215,000. Session of 1874-75: Salary and mileage of members, 8103,000; contingent expenses of House of Rep? resentatives, 83,000; contingent ex? penses of Semite, 810,000; pav of sub? ordinates, &c, 831,000; total, 8150,000. It is well enough to notice that iu the legislativo appropriation bill tho piyment of membeis oomes first, Officers second, nttachees third, and contingent acooants last. The tax levy for the payment of legislative expenses will scarcely produce enough to pay the first three, and, therefore, contin? gent accounts are likely to bo left among the deficiencies, payable, if a tax is levied for the purpose, in Janu? ary, 1876. BY J. A. SELBY. CO Turkey.?A special says that the Poite ia pushing forward the work of strengthening the defences. The nu? merical strength of the army is to bo increased, additions already having been made to the artillery and infantry. Large quantities of rifleB have been ordered and era arriving at different military depots fo? distribGtion among the troops. The canso of the present warlike activity of the Porte is not as? signed. FataIj Accident.?Bernard Kirley, David Murphy, Martin Bullivan aud James Burns, employed in tbo new tunnel of the Delaware, Lacknwanna and Great Western Railroad, near Jer? sey Oity, were precipitated down a shaft sixty feet deep, by a bucket giv? ing way, and were instantly killed. Some of the men threatened to lynch the engineer, who was blameless, and a force of police was detailed to protect him. The store of Messrs. J. S. Derrick & Co., at Leesviile, was entered by thieves on the night of the 22d inst. They made their entrance by foroicg the front door, and carried oil goods, &o.?amount unknown. They also broke open the money drawer, and robbed it of Its contents, and carried off the United States mail key. A conference of nearly 1,000 Eng? lish, Episcopal and Catholic clergy was recently held in Manchester, to con? sider the question of drunkenness as affeoting religion and morals. The resolutions passed are said to have I been of a very moderate and well con? sidered character. Funeral of a Congressman.?The fnneral of Hon. J. B. Rioe took place! at Grace Church, on the 23d, and wasi largely uttended. Flags wore at half I mast all over the city. The city offices I were closed, and muuy special murks of respect were shown to the deceased.

Natioual bank notes received to-day for redemp? tion, $1,359.900. $5,000 were paid to Bishop Alemuny for performing the marriage ceremony of Miss Sharon, the daughter of the prospective Senator from Nevada, whose annual income is said to be $5.000,000 in gold.
