The consensus of opinion here seems to be that the majority of writers opposed to the union of the United Presbyterian and Associate Reform Presbyterian churches appeal mainly to the prejudices and war memories of the people.

Tillman of ICdgefield has created quite a sensation amonir the people of our State, in his effort to organize a farmers convention, and while we do not endorse all of his ^ sentiments, yet we feel bound to give to him all the benelits that may originate ^ in his scheme, and while Mr. Tillman, may not himself he able to rally the farmers of our State together in convention, yet some one may come forward, ^ and taking up, and carrying into effect ' the ideas put forth by Mr. Tillman, < thereby gaining for himself all the \ honor. We can see no plausible reason h why such convention should not be organieed, purely for the aihan*ement of the agricultural interests ?>i the State. 7 It is surely a mistaken idea that our .v fnrmers should not be enlightened, they ^ are not to plod along in the same old path our forefathers did. They are to grasp new Ideas, in order to make farm- jj ing a paying, instead of a losing busi- s ness. We?should.inako every effort to Ji climb to'th'e topmost^Tound of-the lad- | der, introduce new plans, away with the old logy ideas of a century ago, use improved implements, raise your hog and s hotninv at home, reduce your Ii acreage in cotton, and what cotton you ^ do moke have it as a surplus, thereby ? making yourself independent of the cot- jj ton factor and merchant, and then, and not until then, will the farmers of our county and State be looked upon as an | intelligent and progressive people. \ Moke Axon.
