THE SOUTH CAROLINA LEGISLATURE IN SEES
SION.

CHARLESTON, Nov 23.-The annual session
of the Legislature opened at Columbia to-
day. The message of Gov. Cham berlain was
read. 1t is an elaborate paper, insisting
strenuously on perseverance in the reforms,
and is hopeful in its tone throughout. In
conclusion the Governor says: The mea ,ures
which I deem most essential to the present
welfare of the State are:
l. The prompt passage of a supply act,
which shall impose the highest possible bur-
den of taxation.
2. The enactment of law which shall re-
quire all all disbursements of public funds,
except the interest on the public debt, to be
made upon warrants OF the Controller Gen.
officer and permanently recorded in his
office.
3. The keeping of all appropriations within
the limits of the funds actually provided for
by taxation.
f. The immediate and large reduction of
the scale of all public expenditures.
5. The equitable ad ustment of the floating
Indebtedness of the State upon plan en-
bracing the rigid scrutiny by impartial agen-
cies of all claims and the gradual payment
by taxation Of the valid claims.
G. The intiexible observance of exact good
faith respecting the public debt the work
anu spirit WHICH, couuonueu 10 you b year
ago. l commend with increased earnest
ness to you now the work of correcting
abuses and restoring good administration, the
spirit of integrity and fidelity toward those
whose trusts we hold.
Some gratifying results have been reached,
but the future has heavier tasks than those
already achieved. l might urge these things
upon my political associates as essential TO
the life and success of their political party,
for so they are: but / choose to urge them
upon the common unassailable ground of the
public welfare.
He will be blind politician who is not also
a patriot. The truly wise public man in this
State to-day will labor and pray for the peace
and honor of South Carolina, for the increase
of official integrity, for the confirmation to
every citizen of all civil and political rights,
for the establishment of government which
shall protect all and Cypress none.

STARTLING FACTS.

There is more gold in the old fields of South
Carolina, than has ever been dug out of the
mines of California! Every acre of South
Carolina will yield, annually, if its surface is
broken six inches deep, fifty dollars clear of all
expenses. Wear out every acre ofland in the
State, and let it lie for fifteen years, and it
will be as good as it was when the virgin for
est was first cut down. The farmer has fewer
difficulties with which to contend in South
Carolina than in any other State in the Union.
Never, since the State was first settled, in 1870,
has there been a total failure of the crops. If
it was too dry for the up.lands, the bottoms
made tremendous crop. If it was too wet
for the low-lands, the uplands brought forth in
handfuls. This is fact which is often ig-
nored.
1t is worthy to be remembered, that it has
never been known that an Irishman ever came
to South Carolina who did not accumulate a
considerable fortune, provided he was not a
drunkard. 1t did not matter how poor he
was when he came if he would abstain from
whisky he grew rich.
Another startling fact is, that nine-tenths
of the farmers of South Carolina do not work
more than eight months out of the twelve ;
and that they spend more during the four idle
months than they make during the eight
months that they work. This is one cause of
the hard times With farmers, as with other
men, the devil always finds some mischief for
idle hands to do. 1t is fact to be deplored,
that South Carolina farmers do not, as class,
think much about their occupation. They
are not fond of making experiments.

WRONG KIND OF SHIRT.-It was a re-

"Yaas, sir; she commonly always gives

"Wel," resumed the young bachelor, in
his blandest and most insinuating manner,
"you can tell your wife that I esteem her
very highly as one possessing many womanly
and Christian virtues-a domestic gem and
household ornament, a social luminary and
moral beacon, an exemplary Christian, gen.
