Sunday Morning, July IL. 1859.

The meeting of the citizens, to be held
on Monday next, at the Court House, at
II NJ, is of such signal Importance that
a full and earnest attention is heartily
recommended. This meeting is for the
purpose of considering the subject of
State taxation in its entire bearing-a
subject in which every one is Interested
1t is apprehended that the statements
pronounced by Governor Scott in his cx-
traordinary letter will be thoroughly
sifted and analyzed at this meeting; and
acting on this presumption, we shall al-
lude only to few of the salient points
of this wonderful tissue Of insolence, ar
rogance and falsehood of Governor Scott.
He says in paragraph 2:
"The course provided by law in such
cases is for the complainant to appeal to
the County Auditor, with q statement of
his case, who will forward it to the Au-
ditor of State, who has full power to
make any abatement or correction which,
in his judgment. is just and proper. AS
to the general charge, which is inferrible
from your note, that the taxation is too
heavy, l have to say that the amount
provided for is required by tho necessi-
ties OF the State, and must be collected
to meet its exigencies. and to fulfill eff
cientiy its engagements and responsible
ties.''
The Auditor of State, by this process,
being resolved into the final Court of
Errors, and beyond which this ingenious
adviser does not care to go. Suppose the
Auditors do not correct or abatc, but
confirm the acts.of the assessor and board
"a way of thinking which we believe is
normal with the now auditors of this
State-Gov. Scott reasons that the un-
fortunate taxpayer has gotten to the
end of his road, and completely ignores
the existence of such institutions as the
courts of justice of South Carolina.

HOW GOOD FARMERS SAVE MONEY.

They take good papers and read
them.
They keep account of farm opera
tions,
They do not leave their implements
scattered over the farm, exposed to tho
rain, snow and heat.
They repair their tools and buildings
at the proper time, and do not suffer a.
subsequent threefold expenditure of
time and money. They use their mo.
ney iudiciously, and they do not attend
auction sales to purchase all kinds of
trumpery because It is cheap.
They see that their fences are we'll re-.
paired, and their cattle are not found
grazing in the meadows, or grainfieIds
or orchards,
They do not refuse to make correct
experiments, in small way, of many
new things.
They plant their fruit trees we'll, care
for them, and of courage get good
crops.
They practice economy by giving
their stock good shelter during the VIM
ter, also, good food, taking all that is>
uhsound half rotten, or mouldy, out..
They do not keep tribes of cats -or
snarling dogs around their premises,
who eat more in month than theyare
worth in their whole life time.
Lastly, :hey read the advertisements
know what is going on, and frequently
save money by it.
Successful farming is made up by at
tention to little things. The farmer
who does his best, earns his money with.
best appreciation, and uses it with best
results. Such men are the salt of tho
earth

STICK TO THE PLow AND THE PLANE.

Don't come to the city my boy.
Your chance, in the long run, is better
where you are. Hundreds, indeed,
make fortunes there, but thousands
live weariSome and even suffering lives
in the city. Clerks have larger salaries
than young farmers, but then their ex-
penses tor boarding, clothes, and
amusements, are so much larger, that
less is saved at t.e end of the year.
When the temptations of the city are
so strong and SO constant that few
young men resist them. Not many
young city clerks, even il they avoid
bad company are abe early in lie to
have Il home of their own. a yOung
man in the country, soon after his time
becomes his own, can secure capital
enough, with al economical vile, to
Set up housekeeping for himself, aud
have a quite, comfortable, and even
beautiful little home OF his own. One
of the Wealthiest men i'll the vicinity of
Roostoon "hn died u few years since,
said the happiest years of his life were
passed when he was gathering. very
slowly, the beginning OF his fortune.
When he married, he and his wife were
worth, each, twenty five cents, and
they labored lovelngiy and happily
together. This was certainly very
small fortune for two to commence
upon. but they were worth hundreds of
thousands when they died, gathered by
economical labor. The writer knows
an excellent young man in this city
who is now nearly thirty. lie has long
been engaged to 4 yonng lady of fine
talents and good temper. 1t would
be great cominrt to both to be inarfi-
ed; but then, his salary, although quite
large, would not support them in the
style of life to which the young woiaan
has been accustomed i'll her own home.
Besides, the position OF clerks is very
uncertain. BY the failure of what was
considered one o. the strongest houses
in the city, this young man was thrown
out of place and salary for six months.
Stick to the pillow then, or rome solid,
Wholesome trade. You will then ke
sure OF u comfortable living. You can
earlier have home OF your own, and
you will be less exposed to the constant
changes in business, which destroy at
one blow the earn;r 4 OF years -Amsri-
