many neighborhoods. limitations of
the secret societies of Europe during
the middle ages, they are withou
their excuse of justification. In those
days their power and their yeneeapce
were directed against the stgrbuIent
mobiles and barons, who deded The

not the acquisitionof political power.
Their victims were not the law-abid-
ing and the lowly, but the bold, bad
men who trampled on right and out
ragged humanity. Their symbols were
the dagger and the cord, fit emblems
of their terrible authority and their
mode of exercising it. But even in
those days of rapine and murder,
the responsibility of this dangerous
power was deemed SO questionable
and hazardous. as to lead to its sup
preston.
In the present condition of our
State, the existence or formation of
secret political societies is greatly to
be deprecated. They will be objects
of misgiving and distrust and centres
of irritation and excitement. Secresy
Is but too frequently the covert for
crime, and responsibility an inceu-

tions will beget counter organizations
and dissensions and disturbances will
be fomented and perpetuated to the
interruption of the peace and pros
perity of the neighborhood. I trust
that every well-wisher of neace and
progress will discountenance the fur
ther continuation of these secret po-
litical cliques.
Trusting i'll the benefi cent protec-

Universe, in whose hands are the
destinies of nations, and who has
vouch-safed us such abundant evi-
dences of His loving kindness, let us
invoke His blessing on all our de-
liberations and proceedings, and to
this end that they may be guided
and governed by that wisdom, whose
ways are ways of pleasantness, and
all her paths are poace.

The Governors Message.

We publish this morning, the mes
sage of Gov. Il: X. Scott to the Le-
gislaturc. He makes several most
excellent recommendations and sug-
gestions, which it is hoped will be fully
carried out by that body. We ex-
ceedingly regret, however. that Gov.
Scott SO misunderstood the letter of
Mr.. Aiken-to which he evidently
refers-as to consider it in the light
of q threat of further difficulty. The
community in general understood it
as referring. to legal redress. The
Governor evidently is unacquainted
with the character OF MIR. Aiken, or
he would never have construed the
letter in the light he does. The
reflection on the newspapers for pub
fishing the document is, therefore,
undeserved. The assassinati ons were
generally regretted, and nearly every
paper in the State passed severe CEN
sure upon the matter.

Mr.. EDITOR: Happening to be ut
the Presbyterian Church last Sab
bath morning, I was profoundly i'm
pressed with the ideas 30 eloquent1y
urged by the officiating minister, and
while listening, the thought suggest
ed itself to my mind, does not the
subject, viz: "The study of the Holy
Scriptures, and the practice of its
precepts." apply to the temporal af-
fairs of life, as we'll as to the reli-
gious? We read in that Word, 'For
there is no power but of God: the
powers that be, are obtained of
God" 1 then remembered, that dur
ing the past week, we were invited
by the President of the United States,
also the Governor of this State, to
open our churches and all assemble,
and there devoutly thank the "Giver
of all Good" for the mercies of the
past year; and while Legislatures
and courts adjourned, while mer-
chants and mechanics closed their
doors, and cheerfully responded to
the invitation, some of our churches
were unopened, and by the leaders in
religious matters the invitation was
ignored and treated with silent con-
tempt. AS people, have we not
been blessed with unusual health,
with good crops, an entire exemption
from serious phy'sioa! evils, that have
afflicted other parts of our land? have
we not passed the most exciting cleo
ton in our history, without the ex-
pected domestic trouble, and o gen
eral accord in the ultimate result?
have we no cause for thanksgiving?
no God, of whom he can rejoice, that
He ruleth among the nations of the
earth as seemeth to Him good? Ah,
would not, indeed, general study
and practice OF Bible precepts, heal
many of our temporal ills, and lead
to that "Oharitys that thinketh no
evil?" Is there no need of honest
practice of Scriptural doctrines in
our midst? - -

Loan Bonds are determined to pur-
sue the policy of disparaging the

when it must be apparent to them
that no State in the Union is more
solvent, or has fairer prospect of
promptly meeting ali her liabilities,
they should be compelled to carry on
this litigation at their own expense

questionable propriety. The holders
OF the Fire Loan Bond should be
placed on the same footing as other

should be held accountable for
all damages the State has sustained
