Deo. 86. if ADDRESS a tl OF THE TAX-PAYERft* (0\Vi:\T10\ ^ P TO THE j, PEOPLE OF SOUTH CAROLINA * CI In the Taxpayers' Convention on Fri- ti day, Gen. J. Ii. Kershaw, chairman of j, the committee appointed to prepare an t] address to the people of the State, read a the following, which was unanimously h adopted: ti Fdloic Citizens?The representatives of p the taxpayers to whom has been entrusted t( tho high and solemn duty of recommeud- d mi; uii'douiio ui inumviiuu d^aiiiov vut u corruption and rapacity that rule the or- c ganizcd band of wicked and unscrupulous ti adveutarers who, under the guise of gov- tr ernnicnt and in tho name of party, have n persistently despoiled you of your proper- st ty and outraged your most sacred rights, T deem it becoming and proper to lay before ir you in this form certain considerations in ir connection with their action and delibera- p* tions, which they suppose worthy of your ai earnest and thoughtful attention. bi It would be unnecessary and painful to 111 recite your wrongs ; the sense of these is CI not the least poignant of the sufferings ^ you have been called to endure these ,s liyo years of unparalleled outrage upon a CJ! refined and Christian people. We would ^:1 have our words speak ol courage, of hope, of faith, of work and of duty, lie who has rightfully pondered the dealings of an all-wise and beneficent Providence t(l with the affairs of men, cannot fail to have ai disco 'cred ;ui unvarying and inevitable 1,1 social law, that all great wrongs tend to w their own correction, and work out in the a end a sure compensation for the ills they ar indict. Thus the ebb and flow of huuian ft' ideas, obeying the divinely implanted ar principle of perpetual gravitati hi towards b; the right, always returns from the widest 1" deviation, and recoils most violently and with accelerated velocity from the greatest 0,1 errors. This truth has impressed itself C(upon the thoughts of the world with the b tbrce of an axiom upon which may be based the. soundest propositions of the 0' statesman. It has been aptly styled "the fanaticism of justice, which the stars in ni their course sustain, and against which C1 no attribute of the Almighty takes part." to It is vain to suppose that the enlightened h< American people are exempt from the ap- l'! nlicntirin nf t.bi>i nnivprs:?l gonial 1:iW. \\ e at feel justified in stating our conviction -1 that, breaking throuuli all the barriers of P< prejudice, political strife, and tlic resent- fi< meats of internecine war, the reflux of the great tide of opinion and sympathy is t'i already moving with overwhelming force. '' bearing with it the prouiiso of a restored C( nationality, based upon the broad and enduring principles of liberty, justice and *' truth. We would not be understood as hi encouraging the thought that what has It been swept away in the past can never be al restored. This great country has taken a new departure; has engrafted upon her P( system of government new principles, and v deals with new elements. The returning tl sense of justice will find its task in the t< adjustment of these new factors of power 1" into harmonious accord with the true h principles of republicanism, and in providing ample protection fur the rights and d liberties of the people. It will probably h deal not with organic laws, but with faithless, corrupt and oppressive administrn- tr tion. ti liile we present these cheerful anticipat inns, wliieli we feel justified in doing c< by many and great changes in sentiment 11 and opinion, manifested among even die '' uio>t extreme of tho great political leaders al and high officials of the country, and still more recent popular movements, it is st intend'd to invite to earnest and hopeful m effort and action, rather than to lull into ti u lalv security. No help can ever reach ai a pi pic who suffer themselves to fall into la apatliyor despair, f lie energies of m o at seeking relief from wrovsg aud oppression el toiisi be vitalized, organized and unite t. hi Kvcry accessible position of power must tc he seized, held and utilized, and the fight tl carefully, vigilantly and faithfully fought from idaeo to place, until the citadel ho at won and (lie right restored The Convert- C tion looks (o your action as the imM re prominent and essential element of the v< sin s-to be achieved. In order to pro- w cure a restoration of an honest admini-l i a- ei tion of affairs, the reins of honest govern- m merit must pass into the hands of honest ot men. Hitherto, political issues have p controlled all elections, and the great in- h ten Ms of the State have been subordina- h ted to the schemes of corrupt and o\il n men, \vhose insatiate avarice and rapacity u have brought us uiore of ruin and desolation, of wrongs and sufferings, than the ft fiercest ravages of war. The coming ideas p will sweep away party lines and destroy p the trade of hungry political adventurers. c< Government will be tuade once more the b gent of the people, not their master, and lie great industrial interests of the coun v, commerce and agriculture, become the rime objects of its protection, rather than :s prey. To participate in these benefits 'c must be placed in a condition to reeivo them. There must be an organizaon upon a basis wholly independent of olitical parties and issues, based upon lie fundamental principle that the rights nd interests of tho people require an onest, faithful and economical adminis ation of public affairs. Nothing but reineditated villainy, blind ignorance or )tal depravity can prevent this self-evient truth from controlling the governient. Our work is to meet and overcome very influence that would bar its recogniion. Public opinion is created by agiition, and no community can long >sist the pressure of a great truth, conantly, earnestly and honestly urged.? 0 do this, association is essential. The idividual is as powerless as a single twig 1 the faggot, but nothing can resist the I ower of combination. Let tho honest id well meaning citizens, one by one, be [ ought into the Taxpayers' Union, and ado to work for the cause of good gov tiuient, until the State is redeemed.? lie cclat that attends the clash of arms wanting to such a struggle, but no inse can bo more worthy of the earnest, ithful and patient labor of one who ves his people and his State. A triumph kc this is not to be woo by u single jcisive battle, nor it may be, by many ilsome campaigns; but patient, enduring xl honest work, sooner or later, will ing victory to your standards. No laurel rcaths may cr<>vrn the fetor's brow, but ransomed Carolina, aHYee. prosperous id happy people, will jttest to future mentions, that, worthwof your ancestry id true as they to dti^* and honor, you ! ive taken up (lie Gglit in tho darkest >nr of adversity, and faithfully and sucissfully fought it out "'to victory. Wc injure you. then, at once to organize, impact and work" up the Taxpayers' nion. until }*ou anchor the State safe in ic harbor of assured peace and prosperif In e nnccti'^a with gfga^ moveenf. it is desired to appeal to our follow tizcrts. who, despairing of relief are conmpluting the thought of abandoning the J inics of their childhood and graves of icir fathers, to seek in other lands and nong strangers a more hopeful future, tand by the old State. Desert not your j ?opie in llicir extremity. Leave not the ' ;ld while the battle rapes. Take new i mragc and try again. We believe this j i be the turning pnint in the fortunes of 10 State. Stay with us and share the nning good. The same energy, labor | id means that would suffice to establish j io emigrant in a now home, would reabililato the old in abundant blessings, appears to us that duty and patriotism ike demand that the citizen remain at is post, unless called away by more imartant and exceptional considerations, 'henever it can be done, wo urge upon ic people to offer such aid and assistance i any citizen whose necessities may iuid him to leave the State, as may induce iin to remain among us. To retain our d citizens is of more value than to intro- j uce new. Kvcry effort should be made , i this end. Those who have left tho tale in these latter years of adversity and 11 4 ni>Acrti)i'n/1 Mnnv l?li UUt |/i v/opua %.\m, j :ivo returned to their old homes poorer ; kmi they went out, and many, disappoint- j 1 and ruined, look back in vain regret, ! poll a fata' n i^ake. Let us remain at nine and he buried in the tomb of our 1 leestors. A fertile, salubrious climate, valuable a pies, mines, soil, water powers, a kind el hospitable people, commercial facili- j es, railroads and telegraphs, and vast i eas of unutilized and most valuable j lids, denied and ready for the plough, j , prices greatly loss than the cost of j earing the primitive forests, present1 ere the most inviting field ever offered ' i the immigrant. Our people yearn for J le coming stranger of every land and I lti-iii. We will introduce him on his I rival into tlio midst of nn advanced hristinri civilization, witli an assured turn for industry and thrift. This conLMitiun ha- in-titutcd certain utv.des by hich your earnest desire to attract hith the people of America and Kuropc may lost readily be gratified Kroin these and her agencies to be established the hapicst results may be expected. Let your party and liberal support of these schemes e con.-lantly accorded, and .South Carolia will soon achieve a career of prosperity tterly unprecedented in her history. This Convention has not taken counsel om despair, nor heeded that voice of the ast that would awaken the passions and rejudices engendered amid the storm of (intending issues buried on fields of lood, which staudai mouumsnts of Am* ' rican valor, devotion and faith. Whatever may have been the range of its discussions, its results are before you, evincing a spirit of self-restraint, forbearance and conservatism. To the emulation of which J they would earnestly commend you. They have left nothing undone that promised relief, or that any can say should have been done. While they have memorial ized Congress on the subject qf your wrongs, in language of simple bnt burning eloquence and emphasis, they have not omitted a proper appeal to the State Government for necessary reform. In ' this they feel assured that they will stand justified by your approval and the enlight-" ened opinion of the world. We shall not in detail attempt to recapitulate the entire action of this body, but earnestly invoke attention to all the j --J ' imioauiCD piupuscu, aim a uuncu avviuu am their support, from the mountains to the sea. In conclusion, imploring Almighty God to bestow upon all the people His best blessing. His wisdom to guide, and His strength to achieve, we commend you to this noble work of duty and patriotism. J.

Responsibility op Common Carriers.?The Merchant's Dispatch Company was sued by R. Krause, of Davenport, Iowa, for the value of goods lost at the time of the Chicago fire. This company claimed that Chicago was the end of the route, and after they had placed the goods in their waiehouse their responsibility ceased, and they became liable only , as warehousemen. But the court held that the defendants were responsible an til some one else became responsible? until they had placed them in the hands ^ of the connecting carrier. Taking them ont defcndaM's cars and patting them in ^ their warehouse did not shift the liability, in the judgment of the court, who gave a verdict for the plaintiff. If this opinion is contirmod, the Dispatch Company will ^ have to make good a large amount of losses accruing at the time of the great fire. The Validity of Cotton Liens.? ! An important case, showing the binding character of cotton liens and the absolute j necessity of planters complying with the \ strict terms of their contracts, has just t been decided at Anderson, S. C. We | quote from the Intelligencer of the 12th i ult.: ''The State vs. Hiram W. Majors, ] - t!A _ V __ selling personal property on wuicn a ucn existed without giving uotice to purchaser. This was the first case of this nature that has couie up, and uiuch interest was manifested. The judge's charge to the jury was clear and explicit on the law points, and the jury found Mr. Majors guilty. In sentencing, the judge gave the reasons fortius statute, why it was made an indictable offence, and the necessity. and sentenced the prisoner to pay a fine of fifty dollars, and serve twelve months in the State Penitentiary at hard labor, saying that he intended to have the people to understand that when they made a contract for supplies furnished under the Acts of 1S66 and 1872, they had to stick up to thein or bear the consequences." Homestead Decision of Judge j CooKE.?In the case of Hull & Thompson, administrators, vs. Gray, Sheriff McGukin was ruled to show cause why he haJ not made the uioney on plaintiff's judgment. This was a test case to try the validity of the homestead Act, and the Sheriff answered the rule, that, in view of the penalty for selling the homestead, he had declined to levy his execution on the property of defendant given him as a homestead. The whole proceeding was simply a matter of form to bring the case before the court, and Judge Cooke announced his decision to be, that, where judgment was obtained before the passage of the homestead Act, the property i ? " ' ? L- L..i ,L.i was name lor tnc ueoi, out tout iiu uwow> < would he collectible off the homestead, i unless secured by a judgment or mortgage ] obtained or given before the passage of 1 the Act. 1'nder this decision, no home- i stead holds against judgments anterior to i the 16th day of April, 1808?the date of < the adoption of the new Constitution and of the Act in question. Anderson Conservator. While our ships are sounding the Pa- < cific for a cable rouU) from San Francisco i to Japan, the enterprise of the European I and Oriental managers has at length, by 1 completing connections, brought that [ country in tolegraphic communication with : | us via the Atlantic cable. 1 Sensible Words. Maj.-Calhoun, of the Columbus (6a.) Enquirer, has been lecturing the'Grangers of Seale, Ala. He told some very homely yet wholesome truths. We quote \ few of his remarks : "If the Southern soldiers worked onetenth as hard for themselves as they did for the Confederacy, the sun in his twentyfour hours course would not shine on a land more glorious or successful." He goes on to show t^e people that it is not the low price of cotton that makes bard times, but the want of energy, business management and forecast. Men are the architects of their own misery. He tells the people that King Cotton is a tyrant. "Yes, Cotton, be is the tyrant king that lias too long lived on the life-blood of his iubjecte, who has impoverished them by Jazzling dreams ot wealth, and sioxenea ;he hearts of the people by hope long deferred. I will not, however, throw the whole blame on King Cotton. He bad, tnd still has. allies nearly as dangeipns. One is extravagance, the other false pride; ind still another called inconsistency, which, while catering to the spirit of paxiotism in the planter's heart, gives him, ; in the other, a perfect contempt for South* irn enterprises, Southern manufactories, ndeed, for everything Southern but King Cotton himself, and, then, this King is fed by a food called fertilizers, whioh he lemands from his subjects, and the more bey feed him the thinner the old King ,rets, and the thinner he gets the more inatuated become his subjects, and to feed the King on fertilisers they rob themselves of food." He tells the people to make their own iread and meat, and be more anxious to ie happy and oomfortable than rich.? l he means he points out clearly. Organ * ze as farmers; improve your homestead, ,nd count improvements as capital laid ip; tickle the subsoil by deep plowing; nake farming honorable by being intelligent and independent; beautify the homeitead, as a means of cultivating taste and efiuing life; and, above all, get out of lebt. Calhoun is a Northern man, and here is w*hat he says : "My faith in the future of the South I bave tried to show by casting my lot with ber. I see, in no distant future, the South freed from the thraldom of New fork, and her planters freed from the daverv of debt and the bonds of igno rant culture. I see a Southern port obtaining the money our section now gives to the great metropolis, and foreign ships . whitening Southern ports with their sails, is they come to bear us the produce of their lands or the labor of their shops, ind take back in exchange that fabric for which the civilized world opens its purse?cotton. But the day is nearing, if we be but true to ourselves, when, instead of shipping to foreign or Northern ports the raw material, we can send them with profit to ourselves the manufactured articles. I can see the time, though I may have passed away, and you and your descendants, when this State and the cotton States of the South, will be the reoogoized home of every kind of manufacture; ind when, instead of cotton being King, cotton will be our subject and the whole world our tributaries, for the world needs nothing that, with intelligent labor, we cannot produce. The day of dreamers, the day nf demagogues and politicians, is passed; ind tho day of honest, earnest workers, has come, and it is for you, the farmers, within the hearing of my voice, to decide whether you will live to see it or not.? Follow out the course you have been pursuing. and your last hours will be troubled by visions of mortgages and liens. Pursue the pathway of honesty and common sense, and you will live to see the South prosper; her mines worked; her factories smoking with tho incense of indus;ry; her fields well tilled; her people eat* ng homo-made food and wearing homenade clothes, while their hearts in charity ire open to the world." Duelling in Virginia.?The following endorsement shows what was the rejent action of Gov. Kempor, of Virginia, upon the application for pardou of W.
