The State Agricultural and Mcchan
ical Society, at its recent meeting at
Columbia, determined to organize rs an
auxiliary, Joint Stock Company, for
the purpose Of placing the whole mat
ter upon an easy and successful 6nan-
c'aI basis. And for this purpose com
mittces wcro appointed for each county,
to take up subscriptions 10 the stock.
Messrs. j. s. RICHARDSON, j. b
MoORE and GILBERT " FLowIRs were
appointed the Committee Tor Sumter.
The plan and the prospect for carry
ing IL out successfully, as more pariicu,
lnrly sci forth in the circular which la.
been Issued, as follows:
A' present. the expenses 81 the Nn
nuaI lair. proceeding from the prem.
nm list 0nd other sources, are met by
the receipts at the gate during the
Fair. and the payment oflilc aud annual
members. These sources are contin
gent and uncertain. A rainy Fair week
might render the society bankrupt. A
certain, reserved fund is essential to
supplement the receipts of tho society.
Hence the Joint stock feature was
adopted. and inasmnch rs the present
State Agricultural and Mechanical
Society. holding property as such, did
not feel authorized to change its legal
character, II wss, ss we held. wisely

= As natter OF ofinformation fot our fea-
i den, ws give,!ia srteaso, in. our present t
.inse, the Apdual Message Of Gov.
sSoorr 70 the Legislature of the State
now 10 session 80 i'.sr, =
Its tone is is.tepperatc and oonciliatory,
aud ip ,striking contrast with his former
State papors. !. has previously been
his habi. to:seise the opportunity which
such papefs afforded, to abuse aud de-
nounce the responsibility and iutclii-
;gencs of the State, the inspiration find.
!: ing existence, no doubt, in the fact that
all that class of our people ignored and
condemned his administration. Aud this
action aud feeling, ou the pnrt Of tho
people, was inspired as the very
natural result Of the course pursued by
him as Governor Of the State. The
whole, course ofhis administration, up
to this time. has been in violation OF the
feelings and in hostility to the rights
and interest Of all that class of the peo-
plo. One class or race was fostered,
petted and upheld, even to departure
from the spirit aud letter. Of the law,
whilst the other class, which held the
mass Of the property, and was tn
source from which the State Govern.
ment was financially sustained, wus
trampled upon aud discrimiuated
against on ali occasious- Aud, to cul-
inmate and enforce this extraordinary
discrimination, arms were placed in the
hands Of the favored race and denied to
the other. This, more than anything
else, probably, was calculated to excite
burning indignation and bring constant
irritation aud collision. The effect oi
such course, as must have been ex.
pected by Gov. Scorr, have been to bring
the State to the very verge Of civil war
And that it did not, in fact, burst out
in every part of the State, was duo en-
tirely to tho forbearance and cxtraordi.
nary patience.of the whites. Such a
course of oppression aud discrimination
against a particular class, and that the
better class, in auy State of tho North
or West, would have lighted the fires OF
civil strife and blood, aud o righteous
vengeance, would have been visited
upon tho usurpers.
But Gov. ScorT now proposes DIFF
ferent course. He promises to be the
Governor of all the people, and to know
no class or party in his administration
Of the Government of the State. He
also calls upon tho people, from the
spirit Of his words, to forget the ami.
mosities Of tho past, and to inculcate
peace and harmonious CO operation for
the general good. He also poiEts out a
number OF tho abuses Of Government as
now administered, recommends economy
and retrcnchmont oftaxatioD, aud reform
in several special departments. If he be
in good earnest, and second his words by
acts which carry them forward, to all of
. this, we doubt not, the better class
will respond, and day Of more law and
order, and peace and harmony and
prosperity muy dawn upon the oom-
mOnwealth. In his hands and those OF
his party, is tho Government. Ii he
and they wish peace and seek to attain
it, peace will no doubt prevail.
