Thc duchies trantcd to bc takun, but also wautod to becume independent stales. Prussia baa no idoa of this, but openly aspires tu make them hers.

(JKXTLEMKX: In compliance with your o and thc repeated requests of other gentium et the District, I avail myself pf thc first moil of lei. urc, after the arduous-.labor of Court, devolopc the o?ly plan that has-suggested it tamy:miud for.thc- relief of oin* present po'u ary embarrassments, i Wo'rarc aurrpund'ed with jicrils greater tl those pf war,/arid it ls true that we can Le livered-fr ira them only by -wisdom,: thought ; action. The Legislature has failed-'to cxtrk us, plunging vf ereil deeper still in the "6ei nia* bog," a?i?wo must endeavor HOW to extrh ourselves. Our Representatives must bo insiri ed by their constituents, and tho faithful ser Vii sustained,-the unfaithful condemned. The Court of Appeals bus pronounced thc S Law unconstitutional, as infringing that clansi TM Constitution, which declare!; that " No Si -hall pass any er post fact') law, or law pairing the ol ligation of contracts," and ii vain to look any longer* for suceor from such e.xpediont as that. If y*u give me your ni payable on or br-furc the first of January next the sum of one hundred dollars, and tho Legh turo, or the State Convention, should after Ya make an enactment, providing that you di pay mo, at the time agreed upon, or prorid that you only pay me onc-tcnth of thc ntnoi stipulated, that would seem to be a law \' ?upi iog the obligation" of our contract but a Homestead Law, and a hvw exempt certain property from levy and salo, is reit an " ex post facto law," in the sense conteni?la by the Constitution, nor a law impairing tb : o galion of contracts. It is clearly not thc lat and r think most legal minds will conclude t it is not subject to the objections of thc form The patriots who framed our Constitution, ia p riding that no State should pas. an "exp facto law," had reference particularly to a BIM making that act, which, wbon done or coracuilt was HO offence whatever, to be doemed subsuquc ly n crime or misdemeanor, and subject to pani ment, as such. It is possible, that in this port of thc clause, the idea of contracts and letal i ligations never entered into th ; minds of tb wise men, who conceived a great system of gi eminent and called an Umpire into existence. I Tt is the latter part of the clause thou, that have to consider, as presenting the only nope mcnt to the law we would have enacted tu sn thc Commonwealth. A Homestead Law tiiou) and a law exempting certain property from le and salo, to eperate in thc future alone, wculd inadequate, and unequal to tho ends requited, mutt have a retrospectivo action. Otherwise, t old judgments and executions would sell Ue II ger portion of the proporty in the State, and t evils wo suffer would only be partially rcmedii Nuw the lieu which the statute bas gi\en t creditor, after judgment is obtained, on thc prc erty of his debtor, is no contract. It is morel] provision for the regulation of trade, lile a other act for the protection of commerce, and t Legislature can repeal, alter, or amend it, in its parts. Having submitted these views of its coostil tionality, I next proceed to state more explkii tho scheme I would adopt to allay uppreb^nsii to restore confidence, and to re-establish credit tho State. Ordinarily, it is best that no ?slr (ions whatever should be put upon trade, a that all of a man's property should be Hal for his debts. But "wo havo fallen upon e times,"-u t?mpora nwtautur, et non, in Ulis, nuit mur,"-and desperate maladies require her: remedies. An act exempting from levy and sale the Hun stead and two buodred and fifty or three hundr acres of lind, four or five head of boms, and few cattle and hogs according to thc size of 1 family, boridos the supplies for each year, a rt sonable quantity of household and kitchen fun ture, and the necessary implements of husband; of the farmer tho house and lot and work-sh and samo supplies, ic, and tools of his trr.de, tho mechanic ; the house and lot and store ai warehouse, of tho merchant,-and the house and 1 -offiuo ami Liu ulm, *ir??i a?.l4w xnrvf-^Wotirtl minister of thc gospol, suggests itself tu the rail as the only practical solution of our difficult.* and the only corrective of tho evils which La' already arisen and will continuo to arise, fir from the passago of the stay-law, and thtn fro the sudden announcement of its uncoiistiii::ional ty, and from the almost universal insult ern y thc inhabitants of the State. It would disappyic tobe sure, a few men in each District, whose eui duct has deprived them Qt" tbe sympathies nf tl community, but it would scarcely disturb the r talion? between debtor and creditor, fur th? would soon adjust themselves to thc altered ci cunistmce. It w.?uld prevent a wide sj.n ?id an geueral ruin, and it would bring joy and glin ness to thc hearts and the hearlh-siooes of thoi sands of those- brave men who perilled all f< country, and who, bearing aloft your sacred bar ncr, and immortalizing your r.amas in histor] sacrificed their health, and left their limbs, som strown on tho plains of Manastas, und in th Wilderness, about Frederickiburg, nnd other scattered on Malvern 'Hilly mid in the blood; tronchos around Petersburg and Richmond. Let us con-iider, for a moment, the partie whom this law would inconvenience, ami; thon whom it would benefit, and save poih ip. fron "despair und desperation.'' It would, no doubt, worry thoso who remained at home, and speculated in the tears and inner, ings of our women and children, whijsl. ws wer? baring our bosoms to thc blighting storms of war. It would annoy those, who contributed notting ta tho great struggle, in which thc chivalry and manhood of the South, during four dreadful years of privation and hattie, ?lontonded, in thy field, with five times their numbers, and won an La mor tality of- tame. And it would distress most sorely thoso sordid son; of avarice, who, loving money more than their country or their Gol, could ad vance no aid, and foci no sympathy for'a cause, which bad rallied all the spirit of the nation, tho young and the old, the nblo and thc infirm, and even boys fresh from the nursery, into the terrible arena of conflict. Those who employed all strata gems and devices to keep themselves a nc, their aons out of tho war, nnd to protpot their property and gather in more, whilst tho mm were flinging nway their wealth, and lavishing their ona blood, and the blood of their children, on an issue which was to decide forever the fate of the South, and the destin y of the Republic, will be disquieted, mortified, and chagrined by tho enactment of a Homestead Law. But to that other moro numerous daas, who forgetting interest, and looking alono :o principle, rushed (oto the pontcst, and neglect ing their farm? neglecting their wives anc: their racking babes, iuvoiyed their pecuniary Sifb-irs in nextricable embarrassment, it will bring hope, incourogcntent, comfort, security. Why, ob re .urning home, occasionally, on short leave, buring he war, from the absence of youngmen, from thu inforced industry manifested by the old men, and >y women of every age ond degree, and by tho tonstant roar of tho spinning wheel in-thc Louses if my neighbors, I felt like I was transported lack to the olden time " When Adam dclvod, and Eve span." Tho propositipn is indisputable, that wbon a anner or.j hinter fails in bis crops for force or. our years in succession, he is irretrievably rnjned. Vhat must be '.he condition of our Pistri:t thou, rhoro three-fourths of the men under fifty years 1 f age, and many over that age, were actually 1 ngnged in our:cc?nt struggle from tho begin- - ing to tho end thereof ? It uiust be insolvent, I 'hreo-fourths of ?ur cilUeim are not wopth a d"l ir, and those three-fourths constitute the men ( burp all others iihoni thp law should prottot-tho ? icn who ?'ave their mean?, und fought, and b]od >r oijr rights.

Yet th?y mnsl?lower their crests-they must depart, in sor row andjin shame, unless the Lcgiilalure afford iji'tm sjtjipor ond relief, and that speedily and ef fectually; When they aro deprived of their lands and reduced to naught here, they can not brook ti) live amid the scene? of their former affluence, and they will seek a kinder sky, and a more gene rous soil for tho struggles of their declining age. That they .-hall hc.driven away under color of law, and that the lawyer and the sheriff shall divide with the credit or, their little possessions, will not palliare their distress, or staunch the wounds of " the broken soldier." I confess, that ? am frequently oppressed with sadness, in tho eonteuiplatiorj)of this_subject, and can realize, in imagination, the vivid.picture drawn in Gold smith's " Desert, d Village," ; " Down where yon anchoring vessel spreads the sail, That idly waiting flaps wjtb.eitery gale, Downward thur. move,, a nicla??holy.hand, I??** Troiii thoishore-'and'darkeW h)l the.strand. Contented toil, and hospitable care, And kind cunuubial tenderness, are there; And piety, with wishes placed above,. And steady loyalty, nod ?afthTuriove." I have already seen, in Charleston, the wives and daughters of planters, who bad previously owned from one to seven plantations, and also of those who were formerly merchant princes, (for merchandise shares the fate'df agriculture and lives upon it,) so reduced in means, as to be com pelled to live at ordinary boarding houses, on the precarious earnings of their husbands, sons, and brothers behind the counters, and in the pnblio ofiices of the city, while courtesans and the wives of adventurers were flaunting in their faces all the finery of Paris, and London and Now York. These husbands, and sons, and brothers are the men who iitood so bravely to our Flag at Jlon?y Uill, who fought, shoulder to shoulder, with Elliot and Walker .at Pocotaligo, -with Qimlliard and Lamar at Sbc?'ssi.oHville, with Simkins and Ramsay at.llattery lV?g0^-who consecrated the ruins of Fort Suinter, with their blood, and il lustrated by their valor, the ensanguined fields of Walthall Junction, Drury's Bluff, and the Weldon Road. No Knights of the age of chivalry ever displayed moro self-sacrificing courage, or devo tion to honor. Must those men too be driven away ? Il cannot be so. The State cannot af ford-it. We could part with a son or a brother, with fond regrets, indeed, who had perished, like a hero, battling for a righteous cause, but wo cannot afford to lose a whole virtuous- and mag nanimous population. " Princes and lcrds may flourish or may fade ; . A breath can make them, as a breath has made : But ahold yeomanry, their country's pride, When once destroyed, can never bo supplied." I would even extend the benefits of the law to .tho widows of our glorious dead, so as to retain, if possible, within thc bosom of South Carolina, all of her sons, and all of her previous jewels. JOSEPI? ARNEY. THE FENIAN MOVEMENT.-Mr, Stephens, the Irish Head-Ceutre, addressed a large Fe nian meeting in Philadelphia, on Tbursdsy evening last.

General Sweeny, President Roberts, and all others in favor of attacking Canada, would not be safe for six hours in Ireland, where it was absolutely necessary that ti^h'ing should take place this year, or the organization would dissolve, never again to be re-uuited. In Ireland there were ready 50,000 Irish men, brave, traioed and disciplined, and ?0, 000 men were partially tr tined, and 150,001) more bad been sworn into the order.
