The End of Suspense:
Congress has put an end to the
suspense which has. for many
months, injuriously affected busi
ness enterprise in eyerv section of
the country, by not only establish
ing Governments for the Southern
States, but by passing a law look
ing, in the end, to the reconstrue
tion of the Union, and the restora
tion of the present excluded States
to their properplaces in that Union.
We take it for granted. that. with
or without the President's assent.
the "Supplementary Bill," as it is
called, will become a law; and
thus a painful suspense is ended.
and with it, we hope. polities and
parties throughout the South.
The people of the whole country
now know definitelv the term of
reconstruction, and the people of
the South know where they stand
and what they have to do. Under
these circumstances. it becomes
the people of these States to
promptly recogn ize t,eir con d it ion.
and go at once to work in all the
avocations of business and indus
try which tend to retrieve their
shattered fortunes and restore
their section to its former pros
- perity. Our political status is fix
ed, perhaps for years. although
we had no participation in fixing
it, and there is now nothing left to
us but to go to our i'rm-, work
shops or places of business, and
attend strictly to our duties as
good citizens, rendering obediense
to the laws, and uniting in the
preservation and naintenantce of
order in the communities in which
we may resiue.
Political discussions will here
after be profitless; regrets for the
change in our condhit ion worse
than vain ; and all attempts to
institute party discriminations or
array oneC portion of our people
ag'ainst the other, is the m->s1
suicidal to our well-being,j~ soeially,
politically and otherwise. ll we
have to do with politics is to aid
those entrusted with the carrving
out of the late lawv of Congrecss.
honestly and sinceerely. Our d utles
as a people are plainly defined and
pointed out in its provisionis, andl
there is no use debating or ca vill
ing' at its reruiremnts. So longr
as this law remnainas infoc-ni
we are admittced into the Union
we must remtember that we are
residents of a "military district."
and that simple obedience to the
law will be more beneficial and
productive of good results .than
any fac-tiouns opp)osition to the pro
grs cf reconstruction under it.
The terminat ion of the long~ and
we believe, will be speedily follow
ed by a revival of business, both i
North and South. The capitalists
of the former section nlow kniow

investmlents among us. an}d our
own peoplie. lbeing2 fully awar'e
that nothli ng they can do can

will, we hope, take a lng fatrewell
to more profitale pursuits. If
the machinery of reconstruction
runs smoothly--and we have no
reason to doubt it, if we concien
tiously (discharge our duties as
law-abiding citizens-we shall soonl
realize an improvement in our
conditi on in cev respect. Trade
will revive, confidenec be restored
and the ciredit of the business me
of the Southi re-established in theC
markets where cr-edit is needed.

made in this paper. We quote
from the icr''ld's letter:

Property of Married Women
Protected in Georgia.
The Georgia Legislature has S
passed an Act, which has been ap- b
proved by the Governor of that
State, which secures the wifti's p
property, real and personal. from h
the debts, contracts and liabilities n
of the husband. This just, hu- tl
mane and politic measure was p
voted down in the State of South tl
Carolina, at its recent Session. ir
Now, that negro property no N
longer exists in this State, (it was w
liable to become an ineumbrance, cI
and an expense to the husband. es- p]
peciallY where there were many tt
women and children) there remains
not a shadow of excuse for contin- Ii
uing the old. harsh and barbarian w
laws. siihjectinlg the inheritance c]
of the Wife. and property however 'T
acoi red by her, to the (I)ts rc
of the husband. No good man tl
e:ai desire to have his wife made a s
legar because he is 1un1frtinate.
and una)le to pay his debts, and :1
no heartless husband ought to t,
have the power to subject his 1n
wife's property to pay his liabili- fo
ties. or to Spend lice:tiousil. b !it c
the laws of South Carolina compelh
alike the good and bad fallen into r1
pecniary embairasslmets, and to
there are not a few. to sacritice o

Unique Marriage.
A few (lays since a singular mar
riage occured in the private house
of a Presbyterian clergyman in
New York, the circumstances of
which are as follows: The bride
groom was what is styled a sport
ing man, and was on his way to
Albany with a brother blackleg,
who possessed a very dangerous
piece of'property in the shape of
an extraordinarily' pretty wife.
The married gambler had not been
long on the boat before he observed
something in the conduct of his
spouse to induce him to suspect
that she was more fond of his
friend than was pleasant to con
template, or prudent to permit.
He kept his own counsel, however,
and made excuse for leaving the
pair alone. They pronted by his
absence ; and, just before the
steamer reached the capital, he
went suddenly to his state room
and forced open the door. ie
found the twain within, and at
the point of the revolver, but calm
ly, made the lover swear that he
would marry the falke wife im
mediately on returning to New
York. "You say you love her,"
he added; "prove it in the way I
have prescribed, and I shall never
trouble you or her. Fail to make
her your wife and I'll pursue you
to the ends of the earth, and take
your life. so sure as there is a God
in heaven. Have no hesitation
about the legal difficulty. I shall
never make my appearance on
your domestic scene ; and few will
know. and no one will disturb vou
in your connubial relation. I
have loved that woman better
than my life-I love her still. But
after what has occurred I cannot
take her to my arms again. She
has transierred her affections to
you I believe. Do not abuse them.
Cherish and protect -her; and if
von ever need a friend apply to
me. You have sworn to marry
her. If von have any regard for
your lite keep your oath ; for I
have sworn, as you have, to kill
you it you dlo not redeem your
sacred word."
