Rembers, Nov. 29.-Today is Thanksgiving day, but few of us are abie to celebrate and enjoy our Thanksgiving dinner this year, as the short crop has left us with little money to spend. In former years "When a good crop was made we could buy plum puddings, oysters, celery, olives and such things that go to naake up a good dinner, but this year we will content ourselves with a ?imple repast, thanking God for His blessings and protection over us dur? ing the past year. Our farmers have abou? finished planting oats, and a good stand is re ?ported from all sections. The acre? age is about the same as last year. The labor question is the greatest * disturbance at present in this com? munity, and all agree that the pres? ent existing lien law has caused it all. Most of our farmers hire and employ our farm laborers for ten months, giving them so much in money, also two acres of land. As soon as they commence work in Januarv they go at once to the country merchant, say Mr. A, and give him a lien, also a la? bor contract for tabout $10 on his *w:> acres of land, in a few weeks his lien is taken up. '/hen he goes to Merchant Mr. B. and repeats th? same and as soon as that lien is out he goes to Mr. C., repeating the same thus giving three liens and three la? bor contracts. If he has a good crop year he comes near paying out and whoever employes him the next "year has to pay the merchant $10 or $15 to get him, but this year he makes a complete failure and rather than go to jail or the chaingang, he leaves the county, and many have al? ready left and gone out of the State. "Now, if the next legislature fails to abolish the lien law, it will only be .a question of a few years longer that labor can be had on the farms. It is true if the lien law is abolished many of the small farmers will feel "the effect the first year, but as soon as our country gets on a cash basis you will see every line of business .prosper and not until then.

Camden, Nov. 28.-With the past two weeks of fair weather all pro? gressive farmers are making prepara? tion for another crop. Our advice is to run two-horse plows as long as ground is dry. With everything equal land that is plowed deep will make a third more than with shallow break? ing. Turn over all land that was in corn and peas, and let the vines and stalks rot We will get 15 bales of cotton to the plow, this year where some of our neighbors won't make the rent. The only difference we make thorough preparation. -In place of resting all the winter, we plow every day that is dry. We are breaking 40 acres of land this week that a few years ago made a bale per acre. This year the place made one bale, or a bale to 40 acres. Work is progressing on the Her? mitage cotton mill dam, that broke some time ago. Every few days we see some mer? chant pass with an old plug mule to pay a several hundred dollar lien. There is a certain class of farmers who get advances that should be on some good man's contract. Every time we see a man lose on such a liener we have no sympathy for him. The lien law is a curse to South Carolina, and should be.repealed. We have heard it said that we would have, better laws, - but . for the-*--fact that the lawmakers are sometimes a3 dishonest as the public and make laws lo dodge their own debts. At the last quarterly conference of the Rembert and S?. John circuit the following resolution was offered and ordered published in the Item: Whereas our presiding elder, Rev. H. B. Browne, having closed his quadrennium with us, therefore be it resolved : 1st. That we have been uplifted by association with him and benefitted by his wise counsel. 2d. That we fully appreciate his labors among us; he, by his zeal and energy having made the Sumter dis? trict, in every particular, among the first in the South Carolina conference. 3d. That we pray that God's rich? est blessings may rest on him and family in his future fields of labor. (Signed) N. S. McLeod, B. M. Hudson, j L. A. White. ' Reception.
