Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 10, 1874.
It seems to l>o tho test of a good legis
lator, at tho present session, to be to
insert some comma or change n sentence
in tho Code, expound some gramalicul
discovery, introduce a dozen or more bills
regarding cross roads groceries, and play
a capital game of poker. Wo have too
many members, and the grade of intellect
is too low. Besides, there are too many
gas bags. If the nurnbor was lessened
tho result would be better legislation.
The ability lo have a number of individ
uals invited to seats on the floor is anoth
er prerequisite to sound an able legisla
tor.

Washington, Feb. 17.—The Secretary
of the Navy to-day received a telegram
from Commander Braine, commanding
the U. S. steamer Juniata, dated Savan
nah, saying that ho parted company with
‘rn* Convention—Forcible
cut of tlie Situation —
Appeal to Congress.
Columbia, S. C., February 17.—The
Tax Payors’ Convention met at noon.
Nearly two hundred delegates are present.
In his opening address, President Porter
said that tho bad faith of tho State Gov
ernment and public corruption and ex-
travaganco made a reassembling of tho
Convention necessary. Tho tnx payers
are in despair ; they have no civil free
dom, but are tlio subject of a plain and
naked despotism. Tho preponderance of
political power is in the bauds of non
tax payors, who refuse tho tnx payers u
fuir representation for tho protection of
their proprietary interest, roprepreseut
iug $170,000,000 of property, which is
taxed ad libitum, without its cousont, by
those who boar no burden, nnd enjoy the
spoliation.
Gov. Porter showed by facts and fig
ure,that while the taxable property hud de
clined from $500,000,000 lo $170,000^000,
the taxeH line! risen from $400,000 to over
$2,500,000. The people are virtually re
quired to pay twenty times ns much ns
beforo tho war. Tho bonded dobt is tre
bled; the amount of floating dobt is
unknown ; iho Legislative expenses have
risen from $10,000 to $800,000, and the
public printing from $5,000 to $380,000.
lie suggested that the Convention should
encourage immigration, organize the tax
payers in every county, and memorialize
Congress lor a redress of tho grievances
by resolute words and acts. Tho Federal
Government can do much to improve our
condition, for tho Government is tho
only power the wrong doors fear.
Bancroft, the historian, had said that
South Carolina founded tho Union under
tho load of Gadsden and Kutlodgo and
Lyiuh. She was tho first to answer tlie
call of Massachusetts in 1705. Without

been Lol 1. One thing the American peo
ple may he disposed to remember against
South Carolina, but there are many things
they cannot afford to forget. Lot us ap
peal to the Amotican p ople, aud if they
have nature iu them they will heed and
hear tho rail.
Tho address was received with much
applause, especially tho reference to im
migration aud the part played by South
| Carolina in tho war of independence.
DoBolutions wero adopted for tho ap
pointment of a standing committee, and
