THE SUSPENSION-COTTON.
*The remarks of the Phmiladelphia Priess, given
in another column, rendering pointedly justice
to the South, will be sustained by the fact that
none of tho Southern Banks, at least those of
any influence and standing, and located at com
mercial points, wvill suspend. If. the New York
Banks stand firm, which is probable, every as
surance may be entertained that the South~ will
remain erect. If however the Now York lnks
suspend, the leading Southerni Banks will pro
bably not follow sttit ; and if they do, it will be
not from inability to meet every obligation, btt
to protect themselves from those losses which
pantie alone produtces.
The Banks of Charlb-ston were never sounder,
and their relative contditidn was never bettor for
meeting a general pressure. The amount of
their imnmeditate specie liabilities, consisting of
circulation and deposites, both of which are at a
- low ebb, is far less thtan their combinmed specie
and exchange, the roady means whiereby any
run is met. It is true that the conmitng forward
of the cottohi crop is later titan usual, but the
time has bee-n renched when a reandy supply maty
be expected, acceleratedi by thme high prices.
Cotton, at this juncture, will be a better equiva
lent for specie thatn even exchangre, anmd the
pressing demand for it will cause its inluenice
in the monetary market to be instanitlv kilit. it
is the inte-rest and ditty of planters to send it
promptly forward, noit only on account of the
unusually remunerating prices, butt to ward off
that general revulsion whtich would depreciate
the value of property and derange all business
relations.
The Banks of South Carolina cannot suspend.
A suspension is made, by law, a farfeituire of
charter, ipo fheto. They must pay through
any run or pressure to the last dollar in th ir
vaults. Before this result coula be reached,
with all its disasters, the people of South' Caro
lina, who were never freer from embarrassment,
-could and would sustain theta with such a large
supply of agricultural prodtucts, equal to specie,
that the resources of the Banks could be real
- ized to any needed extent.-Charleston News.

ION. JEFF. DAVIS, AND THE ADMaINIS
TRATION.
Perhaps there is no man in the South, to whom the
>eople of our section look with more confideneO and
-clianco than to Jarpprson DAVIS of Mississippi. 11e 1
s alike esteemod for the soundness of his democratie
irinciples and his devotion to the causo of Southern
Rihts. Besides this, his prominent connection with t
he late Administration has given him ouch facilities 3
af knowing the men and measures of his day, that
what he testifies in regard thereto may almost be said
to procced c.e cuthedra.
And what doos the Ilonorablo ex-Secretary give as
tis belief concerning-Mr. Buchanan and his Adminis
tration's Kansas policy? 4
In a speech not long since made by him at Holly
Springs, Miss., we find the following passage having
reference to the appointment of WALxER to the gov
ornorship of the disputed territory:
"It was needless to say. that so far from the South's
foreseeing any cause to complain of his appointment,
she had every reason, in viewing his antecedents, to
congratulate herself and to expect him to pursue a
satisfactory course. There was nothing in his past
history to rouse a suspicion of his unauthorized inter.
ference there, and the character of that interference.
Honceo his appointment was at the time satisfactory
to the southern people. Col. D. said he was personal
ly acquainted with Mr. Walker-that very friendly
relations had existeI between them-ho thought he
knew Gov. Wnlker's views when lie was sent to Kan
sas; and he was never more surprised than when he
saw his Inaugural Address and Topeka speech."
The attentive reader will discover in these few
sentences several points of importance. He will see
in them a flat denial of the position taken by heated
journalists of the South, that Walker was unfit, by
reason of his character and principles, for the post in
question. "The South," says Mr. Davis, "had every
reason, in viewing his antreedento, to congratulato
herself, and to expect him to pursue a entisfactory
course."-Again, that gentleman's testimony will be
observed to be not only distinct, but emphatic, to the
effect that the Southern people were (and justly so)
satisfied with his appointment.-It furthermoro ap
pears that the speaker himself, knowing RonT. J.
WALer. intimately, was, tip to the period of the lat
ter'# being 'sent to-Kunsa," entirely satisfied with
his views pertaining to the state of matters in that
territory. What else is to be inferred from the , ex
treme "surprise" expressed as to his "Inaugural Ad
dress and Topeka Speech."-Add to these points the
igniGeance of the expression-" unauthorized inter
ference there"-nsd we submit that the paragraph
quoted shadows forth a defence of Mr. BucHANAN,
not only in his appointment of Walker, but also in
respect to that functionary's presumption in abusing
the limits allowed him so far as to do violence to the
declared principles of the Administration.
But the high-toned statesman of Mississippi goes
further, and explicitly declares his belief that WALIC
En went "beyond his instructions," beyond the "line
of non-intervention, a doctrine to which Mr. Bu
nasx.tx was pledged." And then, with a dignity and
candor truly; admiirable, lie accords to the President
the tributo of his warmest confidence. After announ
cing that he had good authority for saying that Mr.
BUcn.iAtN would not suEtain Gov. WALER's policy,
ho adds:
Besides, tie (Col. D.) knew LMr. Buchanan well
had been on t-rins of intimacy and confidence with
him. both when ihe was a public man and when howas
a private citizen. Their relations were most confiden
tial when .tlr. Buchanan was in private life. They
had interchanged opinions freely upon the subject of
the constitutional rights of the South in the Territo
ries, and lie thought lie understood Mr. Bluchanan's
views well enough to say, that if the Kansas conven
tion arlopted a pro-shivery Constitution, and sent it
to Congress, the President would favor its admission,
whether it had been submitted to a vote of the people
of Kansas or not."
Such are the views of a most devoted Southerner ;
of one whose attachmnt to the Rights of his State
and the iterests of his Section are far above suspi
cion: of one who (of all others) is perhaps the mian to
whom the South would look as a leader, shouldl cir
cumstanes necessitate a -dissolution of the American
Cohfdoracy. This sentinel-statesman stands calm
and composed, and sees no issue in the Kansas im
broglio to excite alarm, or to call up the array of any
new political organization to meet its dangers. Hie
fels and expresses his reliance upon the Administra
tinin power. He sa conservative in theprsn
unture, that hiis voeo may be the mere heeded should
real perils close around us.
As is JmEmE~oN DAtI's, so are the conservative
Sutihern flights Democrats of South Carolina. They
do not visit upon the President the faults and follies
of WAI.mcn. They do not believe that he has ever
sanetionetd that agent's interference in Kansas affairs.
If he has nut recalled the offender, it is yet clear that
le has enforced upon him a line of coiiduct confornma
ble to the pioticy of non-intervention and equal justie
to all. The governor's late proclamation is sufficient
proof of this fact. His positive reenll has perhaps
been avoided from motives of policy ; and doubtless
thse motives ar'e entirely consistent with patriotism.
We are wilting to think them so in time case of Presi
dent Buchanan. So too, we believe is JEFFEnsoN
Davis. So too is thme great bodyv of the refleting
Deiiocrats of thea South. Somec arc still dissaitisfled
ad claumorsus. But they are generous spirits at bet.
tum, antd will soon conmo to see the A'hniinistraition in
its true colors. Once ennmvinccd (as others o'f us arc),
that its pturposes arc olva~ted :and pure, they will be
its 'juick to recaint their suspicions as thecy have been
iiipetuous in expressing them. And] sho'uld Presi
lent ]Bt:cu.ix.is have occasioni, att any time during
ii term, to call aroimd the governument the pride anmd
piit andl worth of the land, these will ho aimong the
[irst to answer that summons, forgetful of thme doubts
which late!ly tmarnmed their jealus tdevotion to their
Liomes and their honor.
JURIES.
Wihilc otur mode of triiil by Jury is certainty among1
the most important adjunets of justice, like every
thing else it is not free from its defects. Smnollett
nakes his Lieutenant Lisamahago diseoturse upona the
mhiject in the following strain, which, white less true
f our American Juries than of any other Juries on
arthi, is iiot even here altogether barren of applica
bility:
" Juries are often composed of such men as are
pt to be mistaken, easily misled, and open to sinister
nfluencs; for If either of the parties to be tried, can
ain over one of thme twelve jurors he lias secured the
rerict in his favour ; the juryman thus brought over,
will, in despite of all evidence and conviction, gener
ly hold out till his fellows are fatigued, and harassed,
in starved into concurrence ; in which case the ver
lit is unjust, and the jurors arc mitt perjured ;-but
ases will often occur, when thu jurors are really
livided in opinion, and eatch side is convinced in op.
losition to the other ; but no verdict will be recieved,
iness they are unanimaous, aiid they are all hound,
act only in conscience, hut by oatth, to judge and do
:lare according to their coinviction. What then will1
e the consequence ? They must either starve in comn
any, or on one side must eacrafieo their consciene
to their convenience, and join in a verdict which they
elive to be fntse.-Thiis abasurdtity is avoided in
Swedenm, where a bare mnjurity is sufficient; and in
Scolandi, where two-thiirdls of the jury are required
o concur in the verdict."
NOT BAD.
The editor of the Knickerbocker, in his gossip for
eptember, puts forth the subjoinetd anecdote, which
ec declares is printed verbat i as lie roeeived it from
UnJIkel, Wisconsin:
SThme 3Methodists are having a great revival here ; I
m3among the late converts is a man whose profession 1
ns beon ' Three-card)Ionte.' Times being somewhat
hard,' ho tins found littte profit of late in his legiti
nate ' practice,' and recently becaiie 'hopefni/y con- I
ertd,' as the eldcrs esy. Night before last lie rose
'rom his seiit, at thme suggestion of the elder, that he
should like to hear any one's experienee,' andI com-.
nnced: 'Brethren and sisters, the Lord has blessed'
n very munch. .1 never felt so happ~y in at! may life:
getting embarr'aaaed.) I say, I never felt so happy :
more emnbatrruseed.) If any omie thinks I ever did,
hey can yet a lirely ber out of me l' There was a very
mall snicker then, and the older followed with somic
omarks on 'human depravity.'"
Ily way of comment ulpon which, 'old Knick' thus
overs his retreat:
" Let no one suppose that the fact above recorded
militates for one moment against the large and ros.
moctable denomination with which this individtual had
onnected himself. Where is there a'retigious, a po
ial, or a philanthropic society, inito which so~me ut
erly unworthy members do not intrude ? The only

The foregoing is a dian:,th recently recived in

wise than as a pecrfect litles gem of telegrarn ? While
failures and rumor.< of failures, suspensions an. ru
mors of suspenssionit. are crowding the news colunns
of our city cotomporaries every succeuding issue, the
solveney of our Carolina Bunks is thus briefly andl
anergetically recordel in a cool, Sstuestered corner
of the Augusta tContitutionuliatt Thaiiks to the wis
lo of our legislators, who caused our banks to be
built up on a reasonably broad specie basis ! Thaniks
to the omieers of those banks, for their consecntio~us
bservane of thme laws which cheek and regulate
their issues ! Thanks to the geniia loci, which has
thus far inspirel Sout'h Carolina with an aversion to
altlunnecessary increase of these institutions! Thainks
to the aigricultural preferences of our population,
which have heretofore disinclined them to the game
of speculation! It is to these united causes, that
oar currency mainly owes its condition of soundness.
Long may those causes prevail amongst us! We
now have good banks and banks enough ; and--with
uut the fear of even the future " Edgefield Bank" be

we "say it boldly :" Dnnk us no more banks, unless

An instane of this sort now occurs in the return of
uur friend, J.usns C. Duooucs, who huss just purchased
a~plnee in Edgefseld with the design of spending the
rest of his days at hsome. Perhaps there sire a goodly
number who would follow suit to this movement, but
for some little feeling of prido which prevents their
admitting that they hsavo been deceived in their san.
gine caleulations sof Western fertility. And then, on
the other hand, we are aware that there are very
many who could'nt be dragged basck, if the condition

PEN ANIA DEMOCRACY.
Our reder requested to read the manly and
ble resolutio 0 Keystone Club of Philadelphia,
rhich we pu the first page. They set forth
riefly the pri es and pledges of the sound demo
racy of the c tf-. It will bo observed, how broad
y and boldly tlv.y express the fixed determination of
he Democracy is respect to Slavery and Southern
lights. The trWpet of the Keystone Club gives no
ineertain sound pon these vital questions. Its tones
re palpable, plain and unmistakenblu. Unquestion
bly, the Domoebtic party of the Union is 'the party
f the Constitution. And the manifest policy of
he South is to frork with that party so long as its
>bjects are such the Pennsylvania Resolutions set
orth. The polleg of South Carolina is identical with
,hat of the Soutr.
But the hint c&ns from a most respectable source,
hat it will be beor to form a vietv Democratic party
rhich shall be rined from-the impurities of the old.
[Iave the authofs of this suggestion reflected upon
he difficultie4sn the way of effecting this change ?
have they considered that it would produce distraction
n the South and In the North, in the East and in the
West, and that to among the conscientious patriots
f all those sections? Have they weighed the chan
:cs of Black Re pblicanism gaining a complete tri
imph amid tho eonfusion thait would necessarily
anue ?
Is it not far botter to stand by the Democracy as it
.xists, to avail . olyes of its good, and help to ro
rorm its evil ten ncies ? Is there any other course
by which we can _e certainly protect our homes and
institutions in the Union? Is there any surer way,
ot only of protecting ourselves, but of reforming the
buses of the General Government?
Wo ask every man to scan carefully the resolutions
f the Keystone Democracy, and then answer these
uestions as his own independent judgment shall do
ide, always remembering that any course of political
action, to be wise, must also be practicable.
THE REMEDY.
Mr. JAMEs G. HoLMcs addresses a short note to
Col. Jous CUNNINGnAr, of the "Evening News," on
:losing certain items of advice to the Banks. We
know not how far the wisdom of Mr. HoLmEs is to be
relied on; but in the present instance he certainly ex
presses himself like a prudent and a good man. This
is what he says to the Banks:
Ease the debtor.
In all cases where renewals will not endanger lot
them be granted. .
Let all collection paper for domestic account wheth
or notes or acceptances be likewise extended.
Let collections for foroign account be examined, and
if payable within the month, and there be no danger
incurred, let the collecting banks assume the power
of extension, and render themselves responsible to
the owners of such paper. If such owners agree to
the extension, well; if they decline let the banks
redit the owners -and hold the extended paper on
their own account.
If business is suspended the evil will be temporary,
lose than one month, and it will be more healthily re
sumod and we shall prosper.
An opposite course to that roemmended may and
probably will produco mercantile failures and im
measurable distress-reacting with terrific force on
banks who are debtors as well as creditors of the com
munity.

Xn.-All well?
W.-Yes;-what yeu got aboard ?
Man,.-Four of the nicest kind of little water
millions.
We.-Whew! too cold for watermelons. Give a

By this time a cold chill commenced running uip

thing we heard, as we were shutting the door, wan'
"~ You better buy 'emn; they are nice if they are-" The
bang of tine doocr prevented our bearing the last word

THE LAW.
A aparkling writer, in thne last numbor of tine Dub.
lin University .Jagnine, thus touches off tine fate of
unior barristers in the present condition of the legal
profession in the United Kingdlonn:
"Thne law Is up-hill work, without interes't or thne
luck of opportunity. The pnrospects of a junior coun
cl are annually becoming muo aind mnorer hazy. Fonr
he first dreary decade he is getting into debt: for thne
uixt he is struggling to pull uip arrears ; and after
that ie may lay in store-if he happens to lie fortnn
mate. As Murphy pleasantly says, in olne of his come
lies, " a good, agieeable life is the law ; you are for
nver hirinng out yotr lungs; in a perpetual pasaon
hout other people's affairs ; andl at the end of tweinty
ears, provided you work hard, you hnavo a chance of.
oeing considered a promnismg young mnan."
Even as applied to our own proseperous counitry,
hero is some truth in this esetinmato of the dolaiys amnnl
lifficultios usuailly attendant upon a lawyer's life.
But these once surmounted, with a name acqiuiredlby
e perseverinig hue~irationea riiti an,,orum. nand an
reen hag perpetually crammed with briefs, the road
ieones as smooth as beart can desire. And yet what
ntionce, what labor, what self-deninl, are to be exer
ised before thant eminee is reached ! A genius.

as native eloquence leap at undo into the front rank
if the profession. Bunt lesser aminds must work, work,

ie dedue the corollary, that a good lawyer is always
orthy of his hire.

intense conviction of sin, from which the unhap

could obtain no relief. Medical men could dis
cover no trace of physical disease, and the effort,
of faithful clergymen to lighten the burden from

a future state.

OBITUARY.
an
DIED, on Sunday the 27th Sept. of Typhoid
Fever, FRANCES, daughter of Capt. F. M. and
Mrs. Mary Coleman, aged Feven years. c<
Thus lovely little FA-SNi has 1been rudely torni TI
from the parent stemn, and transferred to the realms co
of eternal happiness and bliss. No more on earth
will that sweet and merry voice make glad the
hearts of its bereaved parents. Yet, in heaven it O
will be heard singing praises to Him who " docib qt
all things well."
Weep not afilicled friends under this sad be
reavement, for it is the work of a trite and just
God, who hath said " suffer little children to oome
unto me and forbid them not, for of such is the
kingdom of heaven."
"God in His wisdom has recalled,
The precious boon his love had given,
And though the casket inoulders here,
The gen is sparkling now in heaven !"
R.
DiED, on Tuesday the 2d September, MARY
ELEANOR, infant daughter of William and Mrs.
Missouri Lott, aged seven months and eleven days.
Thus hath God in his inscrutable providence,
permitted this innocent babe to bud on earth, to be
so early transplanted in his kingdom triumphant.
"As the sweet flower that scents the morn,
But withers in the rising day,
Thus lovely seemed the Infant's dawn,
Thus swiftly fled its life away."
"Ere sin could blight or sorrow fade,
Death timely came with friendly care,
The opening bud to heaven conveyed,
And bade it bloom forever there."
