AVc Imve oblnlucd Inrormnttuii of a very Important political movement wlilcli tins lately tuken plnco In New York, mid v.liicli 11 likely to cxcrl no small Inlluenrc upnu t lie destinies of this Slulo and the, Union. It teems that a few evenings since n select parly nf bankers, shipping merchants, politician?, lawyers nml editors met In n private room nt one or our hotel!, nml resolvul to orgnntzc a new parly, to be known us" TlieAtitidelu viniu." A prominent merchant observed tlmt, In his opinlonklliliigs liniLbren nnlnj from bud to wnrsc for many ycurs. The encroachments of the i:.ecullvo were becoming Intolcrnlile ; witness the execution of tho martyr Gordon I For his part, lie believed in leaving trade free, niul ir u man choose to Import negroes from Africa, he saw no objection ; It was notorious thul the spiritual condition of the slaves In South Curolinn was fur ruperior to that nf the negroes in Atliuntco or Dahomey. He went In for saving fouls where he could. He thought the legislation of the United .Stales was rotten, and ndvised u recurrence to the old colonial laws, under which his ancestors In liliodc Island hud done uncommonly well for scvernl generation. An editor, In rising, wMird to rny that lie that he wuh In favor of tho prosecution of the war. Hut he wished It prosecuted with romc regard to Immunity, He was npporcd to the shedding of blood, especially of nur brethren In the Hlatn Kittles. Ho could whdi tlmt (ifiicrnt ileClellnn should be directed to lite several volleys with blank cartridges In I he direction nf Richmond, uftrr which n deputa tion should be rent In JelT. Davis to offer him the reversion of the Presidency on condition of pence. His blood bulled when lie thcught of the number or slaves who hud rrcuped from their masters during the present war. He understood that General I.ec, whom lie was proud to cull hi friend, lias lost two valuable slave. Why wcru they not returned? Was the Government n common thief? Ho was ihI u church member himself, but ho hud a friend who went regularly to meeting, und who informed him tlmt In Deuteronomy Here the srtikcr was Interrupted by n boy who en me In with u list of nur killed nml uoundedut I'ulr Ouks, which the editor be gan to copy for his paper. A lawyer remarked that the authors of the war were the eoplo of New Hnghiud, und that lliey were the dlsuulonlits. A popular Impression existed that It wus tho prople or hoiith Curolinn who fired the first gun in the nnr. This wus n mlstuke. It wus .MaMacliii- setts who sought a roveruueo of Ik Union, not fiouth Carolina. He was bound In admit inai mo lormer nun sou a lew troops to sup port the I'rrsMent, while tho latter hud dis patched her volontivrs nguiust S'iiihlnglnn Hir tho wnr us the South. IIu could seo no diffcrenco himself between an Abolitionist and Secessionist a friend of freedom aud n friend to alnvery a defender of thp Government and a traitor. They wero oil ouo to him. With these few rcmaiks, lie would move tho follow ing resolutions : WiiKtiKAu, The rntcally and diabolical con duct of the Knrllrn States, and especially Aliissachietts, Vermont and Wisconsin, have plunged this country into n fratricidal war : and whereas, the bloodihlrty Iteptcsentotlves from these States refused persislentiy to uvcrt the war by ndoptlng the advlco of such pure patriots ns John C. llncklnrldgc, A'uilundig hum and Hunter, and clvlmr un cvervthlnir dvnliindrilliy the Bftilhern people i and where ns, (he Southerners havo n'ready proved their valor, and (he utter Impossibility of subjuga ting them by force of arms : " He it raolvul, 1. That the times call for the establishment of a new Northern parly, consisting of nil the virtue nnd worth, and most of the modesty ol the North, to crush nut nnd keep donu the rascally, Jacobinical, radical fiction. " 2. That tho cardinnl prlucip'c of this parly be the restoration of the Union as it was, with .Mason, Slidell, Drecklnrhlge, Davis uiul Hunter in the Benale; l'ryor, Stephens nnd Ilurksdale in tho House; the Fugitive .Slave I,nw In full operation throughout the North, mid shivery in ull the Territories, pres ent nnd luturc.

As the excitement of the election has passed, mid business has resumed Its peaceful reign, I presume it would not be termed nn electioneering trick to again call the nttcntion of tho citizens of this county to Its financial affairs. Deforo tho elcllon, the .Sheriff was accused fund justly ) of necli gence in his oQlcJul duties, tlmt he hud neglec ted to mako tils ofllcinl returns of the dcliu fuent taxes, as required by law. How far tlmt was truo we will proceed to show. In the month of February, 18C2, the Sheriff nras charged with tho delinquent tax list of 18CD to the amount of S9.:il.1 0.1. Tim nmnrr lima Tor him to settle with the Commission ers was the first Monday In April. And I presume tlmt ncurly every citizen In the county knows that it was not done, nlthough there was n largo amount of funds In his lmnd., thul had been collected, nnd which was not paid Into the treasury until tome time In June, und I doubt not wus drawing Interest Tor his benefit during that time. After two un- siteceMful nttempls to obtntn a settlement. tho Commissioners met again, on the third third Monday In June, for a final settlement with all the county officers; but owing to some misunderstanding were tumble to agree, and consequently could not ccttlo with any oncoxeept the Sht-rlir, he being the only ot.c whoso accounts were examined and corrected. The following being the result ! 'J'hc present Hoard of Commissioners have concluded not to rc-lease the building of Saw yer's as a Court House, with nil lis conveni ences for business und comfort, and more than nil Its quietness (being away from the rum mills of Kcrby., where nolso and confusion rules) and have tensed the old Court House, with all lis disadvantages, with all Its bats and dreariness. In the midst or noise and conuiilon, Will) n wholesale rum mill under the Judge's scat, and a retail whisky jhop In flic rear, nod another on the opposite side of lite street. I presume the change will not be very ac ceptable to Judge IMm, who prefers quiet ness to confusion, especially during busincts I Waldo. hours. llcturned delinquent (ax llt of 'CI Unliuvliilly collected by Assessor. .$3,010 T5 oUI C8 Collected by Treasurer lifter llet given to Khcrlir 2t2 01 Treasurers receipts tu Blicritr. 3,:il I I!)

He would cull upon his neighbor, the bunker, to ventilate his opinions. The banker remarked that the great trouble it tho want of an aristocracy.

At the South, now, the large s'ave nwmrs constituted an aristocracy not so solid ns might bo wished, ho confessed, us many of the young men at the South was apt to gamble uwuy their negroes, lie had him self won a yellow girl at poker, nnd sold hr six we-eks allerwnrds for 2,500 (lia! ha!), but still the South bud an aristocracy, and this was the secret of tho superiority of Southern men to Northerners'. He was decidedly In favor nf the organization of a new party nt I lie N rth based on found feuJal principles. He thought the United Stutc.i required u he reditary aristocracy selected from the ban kers, merchants bankers, lawyers bankers, men nf properly, und to fourth. If n plunk to this (fleet were inserted in tho platform ol the new party they might count him in. A politician congratulated tho meeting upon the soundness of the views expressed by the speakers, uud thu firm front they propoml to present to the precarious heresies of the day.
