Lkoxakd Williams, *u? of our honored repreeen(Hires in theLe,(is* lature, for hie interesting tetter. It will < peruacd with eTldlty by el) of onr reed* 1 re The Usury Law. Wt are pUued to mc ik?i Vauu O. Wilem, bq., OhilratB of the Judlolary Committee In the House of HiprjmUlitu of Booth CtrollM, ho* Introduced a bill to repeal th? mt of IBM, *hich vh t repeal of lh? old low* prevailing usury. The bill trill lueceed, ii oar opinion, as it oOght to do. All moo engaged in industrial puteulu, planters, farmers, menu foot nrer* and mvniDMi, ana id* common laborer* of lb* country, will U benefitted by the restoration of tho old law. Tbons few oiticeoa having money to land, and apeculativa bor rower*, mora or laaa, will favor lbs unlimited interest on money. It should ba remembered that th* speculating claeaca ad<l nothing to'tha Wealth of the State, aad prevent capital from being invested in productive pursuits. There is no safe and legitimate business in the State that esn return a good profit to the man that carries it on, and pay over and above seven per cent. on borrowed capital. But, It ia aaid, why not lat every man get aa much interest on hie mon*y as ho can get people to agree to give, the same aa other people get as high prices for their property, as they can obtaio f We answer, that high, usurious rates of interest, (if we may use the terms,) being manifestly da* struclive to the productive business of the eountry, the public good requires the re' tralute of lew to be imposed upon them, ne nil experience has shown In tbe history of civilized Steles. Every othor State, we he ieve, in this Union, besides South Carolina, Kaa limit *<1 iKo 1*.? * ? .-V? >? isi^irn UII aunocy, or, 11) other words, here laws against usury. The set of 1866 was an experiment, upon the theory that it woold aid in bringing oapi tal into the Stale This has proved utterly fallacious, and always will. Capitalists like profits, but like security for the principal as well, aod do-large capitalist will lend money on long time at extravag-u'. . avcs of Interest, where the loan is to individuals.? But those under the necessity of so borrow Ing cannot possibly secure their confidence, and confidence is indispensable to move capital. If a borrower has safe collaterals to insnre a loan, he Is not going to pay high ioterest, for he would prefer to dispose ol them for the money, rather than borrow and pay for a year or two more high rates of ioterest. Besides, it is perfectly aatural that u capitalist io New York or Boston would lack confidence in al! the citizens of a State who would try and tempt them to loan tnoco/ by promising eztravagaut inter est for it There is another reason for the law to fix limits on the interest of money, and not on the price of oilier property. It is impossible lo regulate tlic pnoe of cotton and corn and manufactures, and the wages of labor, by law ; and therefore the law does not undertake It But it is possible, as well as necessary, to regulate, or to have a fixed standard for the interest of money, and this is done all over the world. The money lender, or debt bolder, therefore, in every State, has the assurance oi law that lie shall always receive at least a certain profit on kit money, varying In different Slates.? With us ?t is seven per cent But the la borer has no such assurance of profits on | his lsbor, or the producer of any certain profits on hie produce. Ttie lender or the debt holder has in this an immense advantage over the producer, or owner of any kind of property. If he takes advantage of the distressed condition of the couutry, or of pari:.c-l_r individuals, to exaot more than 'he lawful per cent, let him be diecour oged by the risk which the usury laws provide. It is very true that there are exceptional cases, where a person may borrow money at a high rate of Interest, and protect themselves fiom greater sacrifices ? But the general good, and the general policy and welfare of the State should never be made subservient to the interest of the few, or to sffotd occasional benefits to par licular individuals at the expenss of the masses of the people We repeat what we have said on former occasions, that the repeal of the old usury laws bp the act of 1866 is doing damage to the State, and will continue to do damage, by confining loans of money to speculators, or to men in desperate circumstances, who will seldom benefit themselves or any one else by the use of it; and, paradoxical as it may appear, the big rales of interest prevents the circulation of capital. It keeps up the expectation in the holders of money of receiving extravagant rales if interest, so much so that they will not loan it without making such contracts, and very often ib uiua iioaru.u ana Kept GmcK lron> circulation because do one will give m l?ri^e p.-r cent. Whereas, if the law made the taking over eeven per cent, hazardous, they would place their money in the hands of those who would circu'ate It In bueimM ep orations, or they would invest it In manufactures, or in some kind of property. We shall not make much progress is manufacturing whits* the- act of I860 remain* in force. The real bueiueea man, be he manufacturer, fermer, mechanic or laborer, cannot compete with the speculator or rate man, who may offer more than seven per cent. f?r the use of money. Seven per eent. interest is enough, and its accumulations on dehta appalling tDough. The law should not give the fortunate possessors of money to lend the power sf tempting the speculator or the unfortunate to contracts for high interest, nor should cspilal be driven or withheld from productive pur uita. We hop* thr bill of Mr. Wii.ku will toon put into en Act. ? - Mont Outrageous Cm*. Mr. ffv, Hoott, who resides in the neighborhood of C*l. Jambs McCuLLOUen, in the lower pert of the County, having lor a week or ao mimed one of hia moat value ble work mulea, had a notice inverted in the " Knterpri*e." proceeding *!eo t?? ex mine and anarch the eoniiguooa neighborhood.

The th ef also carried sway with him some ten or tw-lvo dollars' worth of cutlery, obtained from the show case. Before leasing, the tliivt took a holt of drill ing and wrapping up a chunk of lire, which it is supposed he carried into the store with him, left it to burn, selecting a place the most ignitahle. Fortunately, It was discos ered and put out by tome of the students of ilia Theologicil Seminary, who occupy rooms albs# the-store, before oat citing further. The atore was eery full of smoke when the fire was discovered. Strong suspicions are entertained as to who the guilty party Is, and the matter is being looked into. We hopo he will be caught. Budrten Death from Heart Dlaeaae. On Thureday last, Mrs. M. M. O'Neil, a lady wme sixty years of age, residing with the family of Col. J. B.

President Grant's Message. The Message reached Oreenrill* last evening. There is not much in it. The most pleasing part is, that bo gives into the idea of revenue reform, so as to noalry provide for actual Government expenses, and the payment of the interest on the national debt, and seems to abandon the schease of paying off at onue any part oi the principal. Wo will present our readers with the Message, or a full synopsis next week. -4 ___ ksropu&a News.

The delay may hare b??n due to the Speaker'* desire to form the eomraittaaa with reference to the capaelly and fltneaa of member* for their taep?etice a**fgnmciita; but there are aoma who think that poMibly the United Siat'i Senatorial election, to come off next Tuesday, may hare had something to d?? with the eompoeition of raid committees. Certain it ia that the members of the Reform p>?rty hare bean aligned to tha least Important eommilleea. Several Mils have been introduced look* Ing to economy In the administration of public affairs. Dr. Doyle, o* Oconee, has introduced resolutions instructing the Judi? ciary Committee to icport a bill providing for the assessment and collection of taxes by one man, with a salary proportioned to the labor reaulred. Col Crittenden, of Greenville, also introduced a resolution in* structtng the said Committee to report a bill to reduoc the salary ot County School Commissioners and the pay of County Commissioners to a sum proportionate t_ the services performed. Col. Crittenden supported his resolution in a forcibl" sp-ech, and achieve i what I have seen no other s|>eaker do?ha commanded rtlenee and the respectful attention of the House These resolutions, looking to retr*nehmeot, I think were received favorably by many of the Republican*, and. taking inloconsid eration the Oovernor i recommendations in this behalf, there wem? to be a reasonable ol simplifying end cheapening the in ichiuery for carrying out the laws Notices of bills base also been introduced to reduce the pay of the members of the General Assembly, and also the salaries of aevsral State officials. All ibis is In the Tight direct, on, but whether we shall succeed in getting iliem through l? yet a problem?ll depends upon the amount o| conservatism and good sense hereafter lo be developed in the Kadioal parly. It is rumored here today that the Ulna ltidge Railroad Company, having failed lo find a market for their bonds, have turned over to Mr. Steers, the contractor, $2,000.u00 worth of the Company's bonds, endorsed by lha Stale. Mr. Steers, on Ida part, engages to sell the bonds, and has given security for the faitlr ful deposit of the procec Is of sale. As the work progresses, he is authorised to draw on these deposits, upon certificate of the engineer. K the leading officials of the Road Anntit mil a?

A 111 Ibe Speakers, ao far, are colored, and they hare shown extreme raneor and vindietireness ; they aaetu to ignore the fact, that there are two sides to be considered in regard to the prisoners from Laurens.

They took il as an eridenoo of sympathy on tbo part of respectable meir with evil doers; apparently, never suspecting that the parties might bo innooen t?as I have uo doubt they are. The election for United States Senator, eomes off on Tuesday next. There are some half doicu candidates, Cardosa, Whinper, Col. DcLaney, (colored,) Chief-Justice MLses, T. J. Robertson, Col. Pcsrce, of Rhode Island, and Chamberlain. 01 these, Cardosa and Moses are natives, the others carpet-baggers. It is rumored, fabulous amounts of money win iMs orougm to near upon me election, ana the result it tberofore very doubtful. The l>ucnncratic members will meet Monday night in coucu* to determine upon their course of action. There have been several other matters of public interest brought beforo the I.cg> isluture, of which I shall give you an account next week. Yours, respectfully, W. For the Greenville Enterprise. Metmrt. Editor#?In view of tho Eleccion to fill the vacancy existing in the County for Sheriff, and in order to secure success to the Anti-Radical party, it is suggested, on the part of many ot the best and most influential citizens, that a County Convention be callod to meet on the first Monday in January next at the Court liouse, to malts m suitable nomination for said office, and to which Convention each Township in thn County is requested to send three delegates. Let every Township hold a meeting, say on Saturday, the 24th inst., for the purpose of electing said delegates, who are to meet at Greenville on the first Monday in January, and then and there put a man in the field who will command the strength of our dominnnt party of Greenville County.
