Another crop has hoen gathered, and,! with few exceptions, disposed of, and ( you are about to begin another year's' operations. lJefore perfecting your plans,! which, with farmers who have any plans I at -at!, an* generally as unalterable as the laws of the Mcdcs and Persians.; perhaps it would be well to consider ( thoroughly the policy you think of adopt-1 iag?v.hetheror not by pursuing it your condition at the cud of the year, when nil nnn/ nnla It.lVO llCfll SOttlcJ Ulld tile balance sheet made, will be improved. What course hive you followed for several years past ? Very likely many of you have planted every available foot of productive ground in cotton, and a few acres of barren ujdan 1 in corn, j while 3051 have given no attention what ! ever to the growing of small grain or; the raising of stock. If )ou have done tills, your corn cribs and smoke-houses have been in Camden, Charleston, or Baltimore?they have certainly not been on your own premises, where they should j !).>?your cotton has been sold and [ the price fixed before it was; planted and, as an inevitable con-1 sequence, you have found yourselves poorer at the end of every year. Well,; if such has been your misfortune in j previous years, can you, with the low j price of cotton painfully Leluro your I eyes, hope fur any better result this j year, unless you change your course !'> N'o; it is iuipo?sib!o. So prepare t<> grow your own grain, an I to raise your; - own stock, and have your cribs and smoke-houses on your own premises, and keep them yourselves, instead of in distaut cities, where they are kept by \ parties who regard not your interests I except in so far us their own are con-1 corned. Do this, and twelve months hence, ^you will Ituve money ia your pockets, and cuongli provisions on hand to "ruu you another year." Primary Elections. Several of our State exchanges arc ' discussing the subject of primary c!cc-; lion." as the best and west satisfactory mode for making nominations for public offices. We have always live rod whatever plan that would come nearest to meeting the wishes of the voters, and. j as in primary elections evrry voter would have an opportunity to indicate bi- choice of candidates, there i* no reason why the harmony and unify o!'j tSi?t party should tut be promoted there-1 by. Agricultural Supplies. A Liii to enable planters to secure . I advance* for agricultural purposes is now before the I^<-jrij?1at?ii<?, and yeslcr-' day was sot apart as the day for its con- j sidcration. Some provision sliou'd bo made for the teli?,'of farmers, thousands : of whom will be unah!j to op- rate thiyear unhss something is done for them I by I initiative enactment. The Taxes. The subject of another State tax i?i just now a matter that may he discuss-! ed, not by the Legislature alone, but by the tax-payers generally. It is evident to any cue who observes at all that another tax cannot he paiJ by the masses of the people until they shall have gathered another crop; but the State government must nevertheless be sun-1 .?.?i .1.t'limncr What is I mine* uuuiin ?MV . to bi; done in the emergency is the ijucation. We cut from the Wiiuitboro iVtiri awl I/crahl the timely fallowing editorial on the subject: There is no one in the State so insane r.s to believe that another tax can be j paid this spring, yet tt is equally absurd < to suppose that the State government j eau be maintained without money. How to extricate themselves from this dilemma, is perplexing the Legislature 'J'bis suggestion is therefore made to thrill grulitft The levy should be reduced to the lowest possible figure, of couise, and should be inude | -ayaible i.i two instalments?one fourth in the spring and the balance in t lie fall. J lot ad if charging iutcrc&t oil tlie first instalment if not paid, as was the method ad pted la-1 pear, let the fifteen p? r cent, pnjuity 1 mi the iiist installment attach as soon as j the last day for p?yin?r it bans expired;' but the property should not be declared delinquent until after the cxpiiation of the time for pnjiog ilrj other initalinent. It is rather preposterous to rhargc interest on taxes,especially since the adoption of the usury law, and the imposition of the penalty is the tru** theory. The operation of this proposed plan will be satisfactory. There are at number of capitalists who will pay their j instalments to avoid incurring any pen a!ty, and the money thus collected will .support the government during the summer. Tnoso who have no fund.- 1 can let the penalty attach, and pay the I whole amount in the fall. Ttio penalty | of fiftceu per cent, on one-fourth of the tax will be bait one-fourth of fifteen per cent , or three and three-fourths per cent, on the eatiro tax. To illustrate: if the tax on A s property is one hundred dollars, ho is ictjuircd to pay twenty-live dollars iu the spring, and tfbliart In lift fall. If bl ? fails to meet tho first instalment, a pen- i ally of three dollars and seventy-live ; ] cents will be charged against hiin. and j , in the fall he pays his one hundred and ;' throe dollars and seventy-five cents At ten mills, one hundred dollars repre- J sents ten thousand dollars, while the t whole tax with the j?ena!ty attached is ;, but ten and three-eighths mills, the', three eighths of a mill being the price; fixed by the tax payer for the privilege l( of postponing payment /until another! crop comes in. For a ten dollar tax,: | the pjivilege will cost but thirty-seven i and a half cents. Last year the instalments were half ,1 and half, but as a greater number can , 1 pay one-fourth than one-half, the addi-: tioual individual payments may, in the , aggregate realize more than by requiring one half. This is an equitable j adjustment, and it should be accepted 1 by all parties. I Stateburgr. We take the following from tiic bum- , ter TV iie Southron : , The residence of the late James , Caldwell, at Statcburg, was destroyed l>y fire on Monday night, the 7ih it?>t. It is supposed to have been fired by an ; inceiuitary, us u was unocvupieu ai mu. time. We regret to learn of a sad accident 1 in the vicinity of Stateburg on Friday, the 11th ins'aiit, resulting in the instant killing of Adville Mitchell, uran 1 son <>f Mr. Wtn J. Atkinson, lie was with some other boys in the woods, ami, their dogs having run an opossum into j a hollow log. he !aiJ his gun down while ihey were trying to run the animal out. I When it ran out of the other end of the! log, he endeavored, hurriedly, to get his gun to shoot it, hut the hammer i caught on something, and the load was disihargcd into his forehead. Federal and Slate Elections. From the Chester correspondence of the Yorkviile JJmjuim- -co clip the fol-j lowing concerning a bill which seeks to | correct a well-known evil, and which will likely be acted up m at the present, session of the Legislature : Judge Mackey has drafted a bill to be presented to the Legislature, which provides that the balloting for Federal arid ..Tnr.rc cb'ill bo Jinil (lis ?. I KC UtUVViP W . - J - ...... , tirict. To effect litis end. the bill provi les for two Hoards of Manag- rs and i Commissioners?one Jhard to fake! charge of elect ions for Federal officios,; and the oilier Hoard to lake charge nl'j the election for iS'utc officers. The biil j provides that the polling placis for the; two sets of officers slou! ie some d islanco apuit, and not under the same! roof. The object of the bill, it is nppa- i rent, is to secure an tntiro separation of: flic election fir Federal nffic* rs from the diction fo' State officers, so (hat the ' supervisors and marshals who, according to an net of C ingress, have the right! to supervise the <lc?tion for nicmbcrs of; Congress ar.d Presidential electors, will j have no right, or r- ason, or pretext, for interfering with elections for candidates! fo fill State offices. The bill is in the ' interest of home rule, aud will, in ail' pivh thiljtv. rxvivu a favorable ctis:d*i erati "i at the hands of our legislators. Editorial Items. Gen. John S.
