Ve fee that the provisional regulations | for establishing Tax Unions have just beeu | republished in the JVImw^ Courier, and hope j it will have the effect of exciting action in , that direction among our people. The ne cessity of some organisation of those interest m grwai question is absolute, aud the it is done the better. This organiza- | iould be the foundation of a system , would abeord alt that is worthy in our ry>-all those of any cla?s who rexllv tfor right and justice ; an 1 will begin It grund endeavor, which strives for re entution in due proportion to the dnter >es?a involved. Any other basis of govern ment is simply absurd. To talk about any dominant party, such as now rules in South Carolina, riglritig our great wrong, withiu the party, while denying the right of re presentation to the owner of the soil, the seource frotn whence all revenue must cotnc, if the greatest of all wrong in itself, aud ttuui^j the wliole proceeding with infamy. l.Lt the people, through such organization, 1*gun and Wept up in the proper spirit, set forth wiih the pioposition that they are en titled to representation in such proportion, a/,d thriI will ffrt it. CAPT. aEORUE E. TIPPER. Upon the recommendation of a large nutn bor of citizens oT the State, without reference to political persuasion, the Governor ban pardoned Capt. George IS. Tuppwr, convictcd of manslaughter at tho May (1873; Term of the Kicblattd Court, aui sentenced to five years imprisonment. The clrcumstanco* connected with the shooting of Capt. Caldwell, by Mr. Tuppor, is still fresh in tlie minds 9t our readers. We are authorized by General Elliott to Ray that lie hna not vot decided whether or not be will become a candidate for Governor.

I fear Hhat many fanner* arc planting too little corn, *cd may have to buy corn next Summer (*3 many are doing now) to feed their teams on. Too much faith is put in the ootton crop, for the good of many. Farmers hove* ore all pleased with the prospect for good crops. Employees, as a gen eral thing, arc working well, and seem con tented, (especially where the portly mer chant holds no mortgage on the "boss'' and his all. The Tax Assessor and his numerous "subs" arc busily engaged, going the rounds ot the county : and while he takes down the polls, and taxable properly, ho also takes tfce names of all males between the ages of 18 and 45, who are suhjcctto militia duty.

Many hftte, within the past two weeks, departed hen?t for Texas, and are, from all accounts, doing well. This is as fine a coun try for agriculturo, as one could wish ; and though Washington said "the star of Knr pire Mtoftward wends her way,'' I am con tent to be a "fixed star,' and stay where I am ?at least till T am driven out.

Much iutereut is shown in the condition of the cotton crop, Reports from I lie Caroli nas, Alabama and Georgia show that the prospects of the crop are hack ward Con siderable lew acreage has been planted than 1 lost year. The gt.ter&l impression is that I the yield will reach al>out <5,250,000 bales. | Thin is not as good us wo hod hoped, being J 720,000 bales lesa than the crop ui'iaat year. ( Something of this is attributed to the pover ty of the planters, who have not inoaey j enough to buy fertiliiers, and who expevi j cncc mtfcu difficulty ic obtaining ta^ey ou future crops. Tnerc is a good deal of polit ical disquietude urising out of the angry discussions occasioned by the Civil Rights Bill and the misgovernmenl of so many of the States. This, of course, disheartens the people, and prevents that cheerful energy and industry without which a people "can raise ueitlier cotiou nor corn.?-Vttf York UeralJ. THE AURHTLTCRAL CONGRESS. Atlanta. June 1 "The Agricultural Canpicss to-day adopted resolutions looking to a union of the Cotton States in the diiect trade movement, with out expressing a preference for any port. A committee of live from each Sta c was up pointed to incmorialiitt ihe legislatures on the Fubjoct, The report of the committee on immigration was adopted. It favors the land owners donating land to actual sot - tiers. A revolution was adopted urging the refunding of the cotton tax to producers The congress adjourued to meet in Raleigh, N. C., in July, 'Hie masters of the State (irnnges of the Cotton St-Hes to-day I were appointed an executive committee to urge Congress to refund the cotton tax. The reports at both meetings show a large in crease in Die acreage of centals and a de - creased acreage in cotton. TO THE FARMERS. Year after year, as we have seen, nearly the entire proceeds of the cottou crop are paid to the manufacturers of the Jv'orth and the farmers of the West for supplies where with to carry on the farm. We have coun seled and advised that our formers try to l?e more independent by an effort to produce at home, hay, corn, wheat and pork vvl^rh is absolutely n^msite to manage the planta tion. We beuevo their crops should be di vided. If a farmer puts his wholo crop in cotton, as many have douc, and the price drops to ton cents per pound, he cannot real ixe sufficient to meet.the nctual expenses of growing the same more especially when the price of pork and grain is at a high figure, if the farmer would divide his crop so as to grow all th^grain required for hom* consump tion he would be much more sure of realt ung a handsome profit upon the business of the year. In addition to a division of crops, our farmers should see to it that work shop? of various kinds are established within cur own towns and cities for Ihe manufacture of cloth, house-keepiug articles, larmiug uten sils, ic., &ic. This would not only keep much of our money at home but would bring skillod mechanics to our midst, and thus create a better rnarkit for the product of the farm. This is a serious subject for our far mers and should receive their early atten tion. ' THE MANDAMUS CASE. Columbia, June 3. In the Supreme .Cburt to-day, ^.owing to the illneas of Attorney-General Melton, en oitlor was^mude extending the time for tiling the return in the mandamus case to the 17th instant, and fixing tho day of Argument on the 19th. A large number of?persons were present, amongst whom were Woodruff, Jones Ktter, Owens. Hayne, Haynes, Praiee, Rose Cardoito and other interested parties. .Strong interest is folt. in the case. The Moses matter is quiet. The Mock tri al is considered a trick by which his politi cal rivals cornered him. It was known that Jud^c Graham had said a week b?fore that thore would be no trial.
