Largo petitions, with delegation
bearing them, huvo como to tho Oconee
delegation praying the passage ofa stock law
in the Southern portion of Oeonee. The
bill proposed is to begin opposite the line
fence of Piokons, on Kcowee River, aud run
to olIIalps muster ground and thence to Jar
rats Bridge. This bill passed its second
reading IN the Honse Monday night. by the
unanimous vote of the members from Oco-
nec, believing that they thus represented
the sentiment of the people below said line
Tho samo bill provides that no cattle shall
be driven above said line between the 1st
of February aud tho 10Th of October in any
year for herdiug or grazing purposes, under
q penalty. This was also asked for by peti.
tions from. tho citizens 10 the mountains.
This law goes into effect on tho lst day
of March, 1881.
Tho above ore the only bills of impor.
tanco acted on during this week up to tho
present. Tho Assembly is working day
and night to.got through by the 23d instant.
I am afraid, however, that the work is
done too hurriedly aud that many matters
of Importance will be neglected in this
hurry. Legislation ought to be done with
care and consideration, which the limited
timo forbids. Yours, &c.,

Gov. Hagood on County Expenses

great deal hos been written and said in the |
past few years about the extravaganza Of county |
expenses and the pressing neod of reform in
this department of the government. Governor
Hagood in his excellent inaugural refers to this
burden tho tax payers and says, while tho
expenses of the State government have been
rigidly scrutinized and strictly curtailed, until
they have been reduced within the limit of ante
bell,tna days. county expenditures remain about
as high as they wero under Radical rule. lie
advises moro strict surveillance of these mat
ters and recommends tho publication, some weeks
before court Of oil accounts audited and allowed
by the County Commissioners and their inspcc-
tion by the grand jury Of eaoh county. This
might accomplish some good, rs in the confused
state Of tho law the commissioners may honestly
err as to what matters arc properly chargeable
to the counties and what not We arc satisfied
our commissioners have at all times cndeavored
to do their duty according to their bost informa-
ton, but by bringing these matters Of doubtful
accounts before the grand juries they would bc
submitted in their prescntments to tho judges,
whose decisions would govern. In this way
somc items Of expense might bo cut off and o
uniform rule bc established, which would govern
MI future boards
While this is truo, wc cannot see how county
expenses can be materially reduced II may bo
that some advertising is done at the expense Of
counties which properly should be borne by
officials. It may be, as claimed by tho Charles
ton Ne,os and Courier, that the fees for dieting
prisoners ore higher than they should bo and
that they should be reduced and it may BIO tha
on rigid scrutiny Of tho accounts Of tria
Justices and constables for services in crimina
casos their accounts would be reduced and othc
items Of expense cut off, and that o little her
and thero being saved would aggregate CON
elderablo reduction Of expenses. If this wer
done, we maintain that county expenses woul
necessarily remain high under our present sys
tom Of government.
Tho fact is, Governor ITagood, in spoaking o
the relative expenses Of the State and countie
now and before the war, hns fallen into q gray
error, as he ovcrlooks the fact that from one
half to three -fourls Of the expenses now pal
by tho counties were before the war audited an

Solomon said there was nothing new under
the sun, but if Solomon knew that his name

ored rs tho ace of spades, was to have been
arrested for the theft of n coat and breastpin
and committed to jail here on Saturday last,
it was his duty to have had nineteenth cen

the point ms to whether Crowder was the gen
tleman alluded to in that sublime passage,
"See the lilly OF the field. they toll not,
neither do they spin; yet solomon, in all his
glory, was not arrayed Ike one of these"
Seriously, though, It twitted on facts Crow
der, it is true, was adorned with see-more
coat and a brea,tpin, while the lilies went
back to the primitive dsysof Adam and Eve,
and simply wore leaves. We will yield this
point, however, and contend that if Crowder
had been arrayed simply in white
ntcktie aud u pair of spurs he
would have crowded the lilies little for
the first premium. 1t must be admitted that
Crowder was even, in that he "toled not
neither did he spin" but he was simply
scant in HIS wearing apparel, and that was
where the lilies got away with him. He was

The Democratic Union in this city has nov
taken hold of business in earnest. Its Com
mittee Of Conference met yesterday anC
adopted resolutions concerning n plan fol
the reunion Of the Democrats of this city
and chose Messrs. II. Il. Anderson, Juhr
Hayes, John Hardy, Nelson Smith and Rob.
crt A. Van Wyck to call on the two Demo
cratic erganizstions.with a view to obtaine
ing their cooperation. The specific plan
proposed by the committee, like that
offered by Judge Flanders may be criticised
and amended in detail. Governor Sew
mour was exactly right when he said tho
separated parts of the party would come to-
gether rs soon rs they wished to do 50. TIL
first thing to accomplish is to create gem
uine desire for union and cooperation.
This desire unfortunately does not exist
among the active supporters Of Mr.. Tilden.
They voted down the Flanders call in the
State committee. They will veto and defeat
any and every plan of union proposed to
them unless it provides some way by which
Mr.. Tilden's candidaturc can be assured.
But union on such basis is impossible.
The new committee has our heartiest good
will. Keep the olve-branch waving. We
want the union of all Democrats for the sue
cess Of Democratic principles and the DEM
ocratic cause in the coming election. Union
by all means, on broad, national ground,
where the Democracy Of this State can
stand by the side Of their brethren of every
other State in the nation. And il such a
union Is impossible the blame of its failure
will fall where 1t belongs.
