Not quite a yoar ago, I called one day to *<m! a friend on some business; this was soon arranged to our mutual satisfac tion, and, after chatting a while, I got up to leave. As wo shook hands my friend handed me a small pamphlet, at the same time requesting me to read it. “What, is this?” I asked. “Bead it and judge for yours-ls,” he replied. By ref erence to the title page X was informed that this mysterious little book was the “Constitution of the Palroni of Husband ry." “What are the Patrons of Hus bandry? I never heard of them,” I solil oquised. Upon reading a little further I found that this was the name applied to a secret, organization for the promo tion and protection of agricultural inter- ests, which existed throughout the vari ous portions of the United States, in the form of clubs, or according to the Patrons' nomenclature, “Granges.” I also dis covered that there was a bead centre or “National Grange," located at Washing ton, to which all other Granges were subservient, and from winch emiuated all authority, information (and plans of work of any importance. Now, the idea of applying for authority to organize a club of farmers in South Carolina, to a body of men nearly live hundred miles away, and of submitting to t hem, for their sanction, every .plan of work that we devise down here, for the benefit of our immediate neighborhood, seemed to me to imply a degree of subjection to the will of others altogether at variance with my conception of republican free princi ples. This, however, was only my side of the question, and being unwilling to incur the odium a 1 Inched to the two knights of olden times, who, having re garded a shield from different stand points, and seen different colors, con tended, each, that the color he had seen was that of the whole shield, and neither having the candor to go over to the oth er side and see for himself, both preferred to settle the question at the point of the sword. I, therefore, determined just; to step over and see how things looked from the opposite stand-point. And I must say that a good deal of the one-sided coloring I had at first seen, was lost by this little manoeuvre. For instance, be ing subject to the will of the National Grange, which had, at first,, seemed to be so great an objection, began now to look somewhat like an advantage, certainly like a necessity. For any body of men to lie effective must bo organized, and every organization to bo perfect must have a head, with an able corps of subal tern officers. Just in proportion as an organization is deficient, in these respects will it. be deficient in strength, and, vice vorta, the same is equally true. The Patrons of Husbandry is simply a grand Combination of societies, of which the Subordinate Granges are the individual members, the States Granges the corps of subaltern officers, and the National Grange, composed of none but those who are distinguished for pre-eminent merit and ability, the great head. Now, each Subordinate Grange, being only one of a thousand, like individual members of one great body, it is necessary for the good of the whole that t heir several work ings be in harmony with each other, and consistent with the objects of the Order. Therefore, to secure this general harmo ny and consistency, it is necessary that each Subordinate and State Grange should submit its plan of work to the approval of the National Grange, other wise it might enter upon a field of work totally foreign to either of the foregoing principles. Again, the exaction by the National Grange, from other Granges, of an annual due for each of their mcmlers, and each degree conferred on members during the year, seemed to mo to be an imposition a well planned scheme for extracting money from the unsuspecting farmer. Why are wo not allowed to keep all of our money in our own Grange? Surely we can use it to better advantage than any other body of men! When, however, I began to think of the func tions of this Grange, its portion of the work of this immense body of societies, of the vast amount of information, cov ering every Subject of interest to the Order, daily being collected bv it all over the country, to Ih* handed over to the printer and afterwards re-distributed, in a printed form, to the Granges in every section, it occurred to me that to do all this requires at least one office, and one or more secretaries and correspondents. How is the rental of that office to be paid ? These secretaries and correspon dents must !h* paid for their time. How, also, are their salaries to be paid ? And more important than all, how can it pay for this large amount of printing ? Be sides, the postage on all this material must foot up handsomely at the end of the year. Anew member of a Subordi nate Grange, after having taken four de grees has paid into the treasury of the Grange five dollars, besides his regular monthly dues. Os this sum, the Treas urer of his Grange jiays the Secretary of the State Guuige twenty-five cents for each degree the new member has taken; also, an annual due of twenty-five tents for said member, making a total of one dollar and twenty-five cents for the year. The Treasurer of the State Grange then pars to the Secretary -of the National Grange ten etc it * tor each degree con- ferred upon this member, together with an additional ten cents, as an annual due for him, or a total of fifty cent* for the year. Thus of five dollars and over, paid by anew member in the treasury of his Grange during the first ear of his membership, only fifty cents is claimed by the National Grange, and after he has taken all the degrees, it claims only ten cents os his annual dues. The woman membership feature, like wise, appeared to be a very objectionable one. “Woman's proper sphere of ac tion,” I repeated, “is the fireside; when she leaves that to join societies, etc., she takes the first stop towards woman’s rights.” But there is no more danger of her becoming a woman’s rights woman at the Grange than there is of her be coming one at the fireside, for at each place she is in company with her husband and brother. Moreover, the woman’s rights movement is a political abortion, (conceived in the diseased brains of a few dissolute women, the mere suspicion of any connection with which would bring the blush of shame to every pure woman’s cheek,) while at the Grange all political discussions are rigorously pro hibited. As to the importance of wo inan’s aid, 1 thought, of the numerous instances afforded by history of the powerful influence she has always exer cised over the destines of mankind, but a stronger proof of that, importance ex. ists in the mind of every man in the United states, who is blessed with a faithful and intelligent, wife. But where is the necessity for secrecy ? Wliy can not the workings of the Order he open to the gaze of all men ? Men wlm do good only, are never afraid to have their actions scrutinized. Certainly not. But wise men keep their own counsel, and of what ihey do the world knows nothing until it is done. ' The general who con ceives a great straget.ic movement, con fides his plans only to a few trusty fol lowers, and when any business of great moment comes before Congiccs, it sits in secret, session. The general does not conceal his plans, nor Congress its delib erations, through fear of tho world’s scrutiny, hut because the safety of the interests involved demands that secrecy l>e observed. In like manner, then, the I’atrotis conceal their deliberations, be cause by so doing they insure greater security and efficiency in their workings. Thus, also, are bad men prevented avail ing themselves of the advantages of the Order to impose upon tho credulity of mankind. Secret societies, too, have always been more permanent than others, and will flourish where the latter die out . When, however, l had got this far, 1 suddenly remembered that wo had an agricultural society in our County, and I began asking myself why it would not answer all the purposes of this secret Order of farmers r After a little reflec tion upon the objects of such organiza tions, I found that agricultural societies are limited in their application to fin ishing information on tli ajiractice of ag riculture, horticulture, etc., ou the nature of soils and manures, to the establish ment of shows for produce, stock, etc., and the promotion of agricultural edit, cat ion. Here, then, were the most im portant objects of agricultural societies; unless the Patrons proposes to do more, it was unless to think further on the subject of joining them. But, on turn mg my attention to tho objects of the Patrons it soon becuinc evident that not only did they propose to do all of tho above, but. also a great deal more. Be sides teaching the farmer how to practice agriculture after the most improved methods, they, likewise, protect him in the act. They are over on tho watch to detect and warn him of impositions, to prevent his intrusting his produce to fraudulent agents, and to bring about a reduction of high freights for his benefit. They enable him to purchase his supplies cheaper, and his tools and machinery at from ten to twenty-five per cent-, less than ho can by any other means. They prevent cruelty to animals, nurse the sick, assist tho poor, instruct the youth, establish libraries and reading-rooms, and aim at elevating all classes both so cially and morally. And while agricul tural societies in general possess no com mon bond of union, each being wholly independent of tho other, the Grange's are but so many “parts of one stupend ous whole,” which whole is a body firmly united in substance and intent, guideil by one head, striving for the achieve ment of ono end, namely : Tins gisnkhai.

I chan ced to be a listener. “In a small town below Shreveport,” he said, “I wasjgoing around with my samples, when I met a green, gawkish, country fellow, with two fancy red strings, hanging down on each side of his boot-legs, which I supposed, were .drawer-strings, not knowing that they wore red strings arounk their legs in that country for ornament. In a spirit of kindness, I said, ‘Stranger, your drawer-strings are hanging down.’ He gave me a savage look, put his hand on his pistol belt, and drawled out, ‘Look-a here, mister, are you running them strings?” 1 have great hope of a wicked man. slender hope of a mean one.
