commnittees.
Nothing of muichf interest' has as yet' been
brought before eitiecr 1Monste. The comnmittee
tappoin ted to look inttt the dontditaon of the
Bank, haave madhe thleir report. They repre
sent the Banik as highly unsound, and greattly
inisnaged, anid recomtmend thnt it be put in
commission forthitih:se, os:iIly to close its op.
erations withinu fiur years. This report, how
ever; is-not likely to elicit debate, as, that por
tion of the Govet nor's Meassge,' tonichintg the
Bank, has beeti referred to a special joint com
rnittee from both HiDnses, which is expected to
report-witlrin a f'ew datya; when the whole sub
ject, doubtlcss, will undergo warmand full dish
cussion.
Ther advocates and- opaponents of the Dank~
are prceparing themiselves;- it is thought, for a
hard contest-all e<pitally sanguine 'of suecess,
The Banik men, i t is said, are rallying ini gieat
strength, and already see ini p ospective ta glo
rious victory swaitinig their effortas.' We are
unable to say-yet who will be the rt-spective

allowed-our conjecture, the days of the Bank
atre' numbered. The Anti-Bank party have
the poter to crnsh it-and it is reasonable to
suppose they. w,ll scarcely fail to uise that power.
The Bane amen fancy they have a strong
weapon' of5 defence in a "p~rotest," obtained
from thetate Creditors in Europe, against

her debts ? Aiid is shte not as competent to pay
as the Bank?7 The Baunk, any way, is only
collatrlLsecurity, and woutld' only be resorted
..to in case of failutre by ahm State to pay. And
when has the State ever refutsedJ to pay her
jmist debts ? Besides the assets of the Banik
.may be taken to pay these very debts. In a

the bill at the presrut Sessitn; which they
have accordingly done through their Chair

the Bill ; but really we are unable to divine
the true purpose of the Bill, or to under
stand the political economy of the report.
To suppo;e that South Carolina without
the aid of the other States of the union
could effect so serious a change in the cum
ritercial policy of the country, or to s,ty"
piose that the chaonie, if ttrought, would be
of practieal utility-are conjectures the
wildest'and' most fanciful. A little better
liowledge of political economy would
teach, that trade and currendy are not the
idle spoits of fanciful legislation. There
are laws which govern theni. superior and
beyond the influence of a local Legislature,
viz': the great piaciples of tmde and com
ne-rce which work their results despite the
che-ks and restraiuts- of Legislative acts
and res lutions3.

COLUM BIA, Nov. 29, 18-19.
Ma. IEDIToR:-The Legislature has before i
at this session, several matters of grave impor
tantce, and which will create interesting disetu
sions. The great Southern Question, has bce1
well presented in the Governor's M'essage, ani
will commitaind the earnest attentin and receiv
the most profound consideration of the repre
sentatives of the people; in some form, dek
.aates will be appointed to the Southern Con
vention recommended by Mississippi. On thi
question there will be no division. The Ban
of the'Siate you will have seen, the Governo
recommends- should be put in liqidation, th
message onthis subject was referred, in bot
Houses yesterday to a special joint coinmitte
of the two houses, the proposition to give
that direction was warmly opposed by the ad
vocaies of the Bank, but it was carried by
close vote. Neither the annual Report of th
President of the Bank, or the reports of the in
vestignting comnittees have yet been present
ed: The present seetns to be a favorable time t
commence winding up ant institntiotn wit
which the State ought never to have been coa

known principles. she ought, ra soon as practi

~ness. bothl houses being earnestly:n t work.
Ysterday te Governtor sent in ' his Messag
J'io. 2, ont various subjects, armontgst others, ht
recommends that the Legislature take measure
to insure the reptresentatinn of thtis State in ti
Southern Conivenmion, proposed by Mississippi
to meet in Nashville in .June, ui-bich will b
done.
Thte Governor alluded in this message to tht
Burnley 'ddb, anud initimates that it will be
clear loss to the State. Yotr readers imay rut
nmemiber that Governor Johr.sont in his messagi
of last year protnunce this whle-tafinir, a gros
irmpositioin ott the State, and they wvill dutnbtles
also recollect that your Senator, Mr. Griffin ii
1848, exposed the clairof turley, as utterly
unfounded. I rementbertoo, that .Mr. Griffin
oppo3ed the claim-oi its passage through the
-Senate, and the result, has vindidated his'sagas
ity, and attention to yot:r interests.
To day the deports of the special committees
to exanitie'the lank of the State, or at least
some of tlem were read in both houses. The
one in reference to the Branch of the Bank in
this place,-p-odnced quite a sensation, it shows
the niost palpable violations of the charter;
great' favoritisn in some of its loans, mary
debts- of long standing and no interest paid,
notes on which the officers are indorsers and
principals protcsted and not in snit, and other
matters of like natur e. It appears that Welt
land has half a million of money borrowed, and
Fo irfield a large amount-the remoter districts,
not much. The result of this eiamination,
which has been more thorough and searching
than usual, show. thit a State institution
will always he abused, bec.use it is next to im.
possible, in the usual and ordinary uiodes, to
ascertain the true state of things. The'detet
mination of the people to separate Bank and
State seems to be growing, and that sneatwill be
tle result, no calm observer can now doubt.

sorry to add, resulted in the death of
Samuel. Pinckney. immediately gave
himself up to the proper authorities ; and
the ne.t made an application under the
habeus corpus act, before two Magistrates,
to be admitted to bail-which was granted'
in the sum of two thousand dollars:
The facts of this case, as elicited on the
application:forhail. are as follows-viz:
Snie ditliculty had arisen between the
parties, concnroin; the ineasuremient ol'
wheat--when Samuel Wnrinen pr'esented
a loaded and cocked gon, at the breast of
Pinckney Pinckney was standing rear'
his brother, with a comhion pocket knife'
open in his handil. n ith which he was tiim=
ming a stick, to scrde as a tiilly for the
wheat-and when Sitmuel presented the
gun, he strek him two hlows.on-ihe neck
with the knife, one of which seVering the
carotid arterv, c aused tlfu death of Sarnuel
in a short'tinie.
All the facts in this case, we learn, tere
not fully developed before the Magistrates

cnoclusion that the case was one of self
