, We are satisfied thai the people are Dcgln-
Mtg TO believe that tfts point has been reach
ed beyond which forbearance. ceases 10 be a
virtue. The property-holders and the intelh-
gent men for the country are calling aloud for
remedies to the evils by which they are sur
rounded. When these speak they are worthy
of attention. If unheeded, the storm, which
has been heard mutterlng along Our mountain
,goEges, will, sooner Or later, sweep in fury TO
The sea.
1850 From the UheraSs Dennocrat
/ From the seaboard to the mountains great
ieXeiHmepe exists a1nongthe people. In regard
10 the corruption exhibited by the Leglsla-
ture, the s~qusndertng OF the public money,
andIhe heavy BURDENS OF taxation imposed
upon the people at the late session OF that
body. These taxes canno be paid, and II
forced sales are made. the property In lhe
Estate will not brin. enough to meet the de-
'mands Of the Legislature. Reputation Of the
State debt and resistance to the collection Oh
tthe taxes are strongly urged in many quarters.
From the Beaufort Republican,
It Is not the duty Of the press to counsel re-
~sistance TO the laws, but under then ircum.
stances we believe we are justified in opposing
the payment of the exorbitant axe thai have
been ordered by the State. Every paper That

the administration oil Governor Scott and his
host OF lickspittles. If these Augean stables
could be cleaned, and o set Of men put In
power who have intellect enough TO discern
between right and wrong, and are beyond the
pale Of intimidation, the taxpayers would
have no reason 10 complain, and until that
millennium arrives, we snail light this gang OF
thieves to the end.
From the Union Times.1
/ We can assure the thieying officials Of The
State that The people have determined not to
allow that last pound to be put upon their
backs this year. We solemnly warn the
authorities not to attempt to enforce that law.
The people cannot aud will not attempt TO
meet 1t. The suspicion Is already aroused that
the military force called for, and now being
stationed among us, ia q shrewd device OF The
Stale officials to enforce the collection OF The
taxes at the point of the bayonet. Another,
aud more probable, suspicion is that, feeling
the cold hand Of political death crawling over
the Radical party in this State, tue officials.

grab into The treasury q profitable one, and
then tor their native homes flushed with
Radical ~victory-full pockets.
From the Barnwell Sentinel.l
We proposed hast summer to reform the gov

his shoulder to the wheel, and did yeoman SER

suit? While Ransier, Chamberlain, Cardoza,
Whipper and Delaney, all admitted that ~
form was NECESSARY, yet they put up as candi-
dates, and supported by their. voices, the very
men against whom complaint was nude. and
