_ j ^ ; OUBEWVILM^ 8. C. ' wtDiion, oiittittu, i?e? He*tint* or Uu People?8UU1 Tax**. Wf l**t Week published the proceedings of a large aad respectable meeting of the eitlsens tt (Massy Mountain Township, bold tb* 13th August. Tb*/ were moderate, wtae aad patriotic, free from party feeling, aad well oalcolated to tmietwa pehUe opinion oa Just aad prop?r means of rescuing the people of U 8 at* from the terflbV* oppreiilon of fa gll t ixca, that a central board in Columbia ari.I* tTarily doubles or fixes any way they like, and gives to a few mch or to a single man tbe desI otic power of Extorting unjustly money from the oiUtens under tbe fortes of law. The whole system of the taxes in this State is such es no free people ought to bear when they have the power of relisting themselves, easily and peacefully by the biOiot. The oply way the people oan be long op? pressed in this country is by party excitement. henoe we perceive that oflce seekers and office holder* are always striving to get the people to quarrelling about party matters, Instead of attending tcr their true Interest. ' The proceedings of the meeting of the 15th AugUst, at which Join Dili, presided as Chairman, and Jermason Barton aetsd as Secretary, ought to bo preserved by ell our eitisens as frirnishiag the true principles upon which republican liberty must be maintained. The people ought not to quarrel with each other but unite as one man to defeat high taxes and high salaries aAd numerous officials, and multitudes of hungry office seekers that come from far and nehr to eht onr substance and tax us at their own pleasure to a degree never known before since the first settlement of this coun_ iff. Tbe meeting already referred to protests against division and strife, because they feel that tbey must unite In harmony to defeat the common oppressors, and save themselves and country. And they say truly " division and party Strife tend to weaken the efforts of the upright, and put had men In power." Another Meeting in Glassy Moon tain We publish next srftek the proceedings of another meeting in Glassy Mountain Township. We regret that any eitisen of Greenville should have attempted to vindi- ' cate the unrepnblican principle that a minority of voters in this Congressional Die trict should rule the msjority, or that they should complain of the proceeding? of the Grand Jnry in such gross terms. TheU. 8. Grand Jury was composed of some of the best men in the country, and as pure and honorable gentlemen as we kuow ; and sneh men, acting, as they did, out of a regard for the peace and order of eociety, the vindication of justice and genuine republicanism that public Representatives should olsim their post when they receive a majority of legal votes, and not by virtue of a large minority. Sneh men presenting, as a Grand Jury, nothing but undeniable truth andpure republicanism, ought not ta ?bc de. nounced as "degrading themselves and the county." We regret that any of onr citisent, however few in number, ebould have set such an example of attaekisg good and lawful men, that th? presiding United States Judge commended for their faithful and ins ielligcnt conduct, in enforcing the laws of the country under his instruction. It is even surprising that the lion.. A. 8. Waltact permitted his friends, in hie presence, and wiih his apparert sanction, to denoonce the Grand Jury and County of Greenvillo as degraded. We have supposed that he was desirous of keeping on friendly terms with the peoplo. It may be that he never ex I'wva w uc vitcvcu try u wtijurivj ui wvfD, and ia coatont with a minority. W? are sorry for another thing connected with the meeting of the 10th of September: That any body in Ihia District, knowing that A. SWallace was defeated by several thousand voter, ahonld yet style him " member elect to the United Statea Confrere." We observe some views expr??sed in the proceedings that are approvnble?all that aims at reducing the taxes and expenses of the State and Connty. But it will not do to lay the blame of high taxes on the proceedings of the former Legislatures, or to say that because the State owed a moderate debt before the war, that the increased debt should be excused, end the extravagant taxation And bigli salaries and appro priationa palliated.

The work of tho American Bible Society it vast snd liberal, corresponding with ths sontrfbOttons. It was organised in 1818, and has auxiliary societies In every State and regular agents. The sum total of issues and circulation during the your ending 13th May, I860, Is 1,388,811 volumes, and the entire number of Volumes issued in 53 years (to that data) is *6,141,731. The Board.of Managers had the pleasure of reporting the restoration of tho Society throughout the Southern States. Ths agents occupying every one of these State, report 881 auxiliary and branch soeiatiea. The receipta from ! these and branch societies last year were $75,589.74. Plans are on band for enlarging the work of the Society at home and abroad. The publication department exhibits a notable increase. Tbe circular itsuod by the American Bible Society immediately after the war, erineed a most Cbristain spirit. In 1881,11th July, th* board of managers resolved, " they saw no cause to make *07 alteration la their preetloe or policy of supplying auxiliary societies/' and accordingly the board, in a noble and true Christian spirit, continued to sead Dibles Booth during the war as opportunity offered. We annex tho following extract from the olrcolar issued from the Bible House, August 1863f specifying some of the work done in carrying out the resolution we hare quoted. " Twenty thousand volumes for Gen. Joseph B. Johnson's Army, before the fall of Yicksburg; 25,000 to the Southern Baptist Sunday School Board ; 50,004 for Gen. Bragg's Artny> after the battles of Chattanooga and Lookout Mountain; 100,000 for North Carolina troops and people, donated to the Board of Army Colportage of that State ; 50,004 to the TransMississippi Army. Added to these at various times were miscellaneous grants of many thousands of volumes to the Kev. 2>rs. Sampson, Stiles, Taylor, Leyburn, Moore, Rot.
