Newberry We wish destinctly and i?^alT'^ciWQor and earnestness to show our renders tho benefits of Newberry College, recently removed from Newberry to our little village Mnny of our citizens do not understand or appreciate tho advantages of the College, und wo doubt whether nny ono can fully estimule the bone fits whioh such un Institution confers upon the community. Besides thc educational fa ediths it offers-besides the pecuniary udvun tiges gained-the social and moral influences are beyond otlc.ulttion. Cf our readers will indulge us, wo will endri vor to present n few of these advantages for their consideration This "Institution gives to the citizens ol' Walhalla und tho surrounding district. cv< ryJ advantage necessary to n btu iu a liberal educas timi, equal to any tfoh ml of tho kind in tho Southern states, without tho necessity of se d^ ing their sons from the parental roof, or the expense of boarding them ut a distant Col lego. This advantage is realized by those Who wish to educate their children. Institutions of this kind in any cotnmuni ty inoreaso the value of property. As like Causes produce like effects, real estate must be more vuluablo now then twelve month! ?go. Many w ll seek n home in our midst' whose rescotfrscs, wealth und moral ii?^We would have been lost, bad no oduentiiurariid vuntages been offered. Every inducement that would load worthy men-'mon of sooiul and moral worth-to purchase property und to secure a homo for theniHolyes und children in any community adds materially to thc val ue of real estate There is another great advantage which those who understand Political Ecomy will readily admit, an advantage in dollars and cents. Suppose there were now one hundred students in thc College, from tho neighbor ing Districts und States. Euell student, on an average would leave in this community two hundred dallara per year. Hence 20,000 dob lura would bc thrown into circulntion.' Would not tire yearly circulation of twenty thousand doliavti he an advantage to this town and tho immediate neighborhood ? would not ovary ono bo. more on ress hench! ted ? Tho sooiul and tuoral advantages aro by for tho greatest. These "blessings can never bo csti ma ted by dollars und cents. Give us these blessings and the prosperity of this commu nity will bc scoured. Every employment or profession whioh tends to elevate tho commu nity in morality aids making tho place prospe rous and happy. Tho citizens of this place should vie with euell other in giving to tho student a comfor table and pleasant homo the few years ho re mains in-our midst to complete his education. The building ought to be completed at once L? by a united effort, yea, made beautiful and if floceftwy enlarged, so that these may bo at? tractions to this school from a distance. We understood that the Synod, under whose fos tering ouro tho college is placed, supports the Professors; thon surely this .community, wliioh enjoys particularly its advantages, , should ofter syitable buildings in whioh to curry on their educational enterprises. Wo ahull, us time nod circumstances admit,' keep our rendors informed, of those enterprise? in our midst c deniatrd to make us a prosperous And happy people N ?no*?.

Confed?rate Transnotion?. Tho Legislature hus under consideratloo " A Hill to deteruiiuo the vuluo of contractu made in Confederate States notes or their equivalent." The ohjeot of the Hill ls to es. tublish a uniform basis of settlement for nil chums H rising upon contracts made during the war. After reciting io the preamble tho de precated valuo of confederate. stu tea .nutca^l that they were Used us a medium of exchange | iu tho transfer of real und personal property during the wnr und that payment of debts arising frpui contracts made during that timo ?snow sought to bo enforced tu lawful money, it enacts us follow*: That tho vuluo of all debts nod obligations, whether under seal or ' not under seal, orcnted or contracted io cou. federate states notes or with rofcrcm.e to oou federate states notes us a basis of valuo, is sued by tho so onllcd ounfederuto states Gov eminent, or iu or by nuy bills, bonds or notes usscmiluted or mude ?quivulent, in valuo to confederate .Slates notes by nuy law or custom of trade, during tho years 18G1 to lbG5, shall bo determined by the value of said confede* rate states uotcs iu tho lawful money of thoso United States at tho timo such debts or obii g?tions wero created or coutraotcd." This section constitutes tho substratum of tho whole Hill, tho remainder being a mere declaration of the vulue cf one dollur in gold snidcoufed- j orate states no*os, dering every month in the four yours of tho wnr, deduced and averagod by mathematica! calculation from vatious ta bles of valuo kept by different banks in tho South. It was drafted by Senator Corbin and must hnvo cost n good deal of time and labor. It differs materially from the ordi nance of thc convention of 18G5 under whioh our courts have been heretofore deciding such contracts. That ordinance permits tho Plain |ff to provo and rcoovor tho valuo of the lerty, whioh was tho consideration of thc tor obligation. So do this the Plaintiff | hst go behind tho written contract which in legal point of view, is a questionable right. This Bill on thc cor.trary sustains the written coutract and requires tho debtor to pay the value of the money. It is based on the sup position timi confederate states were never money but a commodity issued us a medium of exchange and possessing a value varying from time to time That parties contracting with it ns a basis of value hud un eye to its real value and should only be required to pay that amount. While it fails to give ex act justice in every i ns ttl noe, it certuinly hus some redeeming foti tu res. In the first place, it sustains the writ top contract und buses the settlement ott its provisions ; secondly, tl c furnishing, by legislative enactment, tcstimo oy us to the true value of this money or com modify, during every month of thc w -r. it ? nubles parties to settle such conti, cts with mt "appealing to the Courts mid lastly itu\o'ds IV of hu ni an tcstimo no Soul?. would ha Vi per con tr ?nd.r this view dSSWho ordinance or*n>b\"> afford pei feet justice '( does it not give un unfair nd vantage to the seller by shielding hint from bia own bid speculations ? No plan of set tleinent eui bo derived, which will mete out full justice in every caso and the Hill under considerat ion fulls fur short of it. Wo confess our own predilection* ure on rho side of thc ordinance of 18G?? us niorc likely to give jus tico in n generality of cuses. This Hill, io mony inst j noes, operates op prossively for the MK) wi it g reasons : Firstly, all contracts during the War where the written instrument is i3 bu paid in coin, cannot, be sealed however exorbitant tho prioe may ho Secondly, as the white labor of tho country wt is sent to the front during the war, and M large portion of he real estate, of the country Was thereby left untenanted and un ti I led, it brought by the provisions of this Hill, much loss than its fiotuul, inherent vulue. There was no demand for it, and whenever forced into market the price in Confederate money on time wis often but littlo a ho ve its real val ve ttl tho lo-wfal money. Thirdly, ns the la bor of the country- wa? redtacod while the con sumption of the produots of labor was in oreuscd by wq?te ar?d destruotioo, as a tnilitu ry necessity, provisions necessarily rose above their actual value, and ill? necessities of ;|?? people forced thom to promise prices \;hieb by this Bill fur exooeds what suoh articles have evor beforo or sinoo brought. The Bill has passed tho Sonate, and we havo little doubt bat it will pass the house and become the law. Railroads. The different railroads of tho Sta to have re solved ead asking tho endorsement of thoir bonds by tho State to the extent of eleveu million of dollars. Tho Bill granting aid to tho Blue Ridge lt tilro td to tho amount of four million dollars in bonds guate.aced by tho State ha? huon already pissed, also tho Bill granting nearly one million to the Green? trille and Columbia lind. Wo hoi ?eve both >f these Aots to bo honda in good sense and mund ju lirmeot. Tho Chatham road which sra* chartered lust sunnier, und which con '.nets Cullimbin with Portsmouth by mil, has now H Bill in tho l.ogi?ltittire to authorise tho ssueof three milli??? of bon ls of tho flt tte I o be exchanged for bonds of that road.

Tho Fort Royal road is asking the Stuto to take ono million of dollars in stook in thut road and tho Charleston omi Savannah road has a Bill to postpone tho first lino of tho ' State oa thut road to the amount of Qvo Hun drei thousand dollar* so a? to enable tho road to raise money to refit and put it in operation. Tue dobt of tho state is already six millions of dollars and though these roads aro expeo ted to redeem their bonds und save tho stuto harmless, yet in oaso of teeir fuiluro tho state oeoupies tho position assurety and will ho Ha blo as snub. Is thero not danger of bueom ; ing too gonorous for our public credit and : general prosperity. Removal of Political Pliabilities I Congress hus under consideration n Bill to provide thc manner of removing politicul dis. I abilities. This is n step in tho right direction, ! lt is the only load to pcaoo and u harmoni ous union of the States comprising thc federal government. There may be a forciblo con nection of the States but their union can only bo established and preserved in the affection of the citizens, while Congress maintains to. wards the South, the position of a conqueror ! towards a subjugated people, tho old feeliugs of bitterness and resentment engendered in tho past will smoulder, and prevent any union from common interest. Observation upon position of England towards tho Irish peoplo j teaches U3 this. Being always treated ns a ? conquered people, their just rights denied them, they havo never suffered their resent ment to give place to a feeling of common interest and affection towards tho English government. Thc welfare and prosperity of thc country requires porno general action iu this matter by Congress. Tho Northern press is gradually assuming ground in favor of such a course. Thc present system of petitioning a partisan Lcgisluture to request a partisan Congress to remove the politicul disabilities of Mr. B. wears too much the semblance of partisan favor. Tho "New York Times" in this connection concludes an article on thc subject of the removal of political disabilities, as follows ? '.If thc time has come, when disabilities may bo safely removed, tho better method ol I procedure would seem to be the adoption of ' I general measure, bused upon n just and intel ligible principle, and obviating all suspicioi .?f invidiousness or partiality. The prereni plan may not be designedly partial, but i l< oks so ; and the ittip&tfcioii updn the Smith ern mind is not favorable lo the fairness o ircuerotdty of thc Government. Hy eueetinj a comprehensive measure, thoVnnly rcmainitij ?iouree of irritation in the reconstructed Slat? would be removed, und thc imignanimou promise ot thc Chicago-Convention would b Killed lt would be better te except firer |f thc 'men who bad gone from thc Senat mi her to organize rebellion'-whose con red exclusion from office Mr. Trun.bu; demands-than to adhere to a process b Whioh thc removal of disabilities is maa ro wear the semblance of partisan favor." lu view of this Bill now before Congre? the State Legislature bus suspended all actio .MI petitions presented for that purpose. W received and presented several such petition! f >r friends in the counties of Ovoucetllld Piel e ts, but they were ordered to lio over to nwai tho action of Congress on the Hill before it. WASHINGTON, March 1. -In thc Senat? a bitter contest occurred over n motion 1 cruse the Name of Geo. Asa Bogers, Audit? .d' Virginia, front thc disability bill. Nil slid V- ells bad decided to sell Virginia's it terna] improvements nt a sacrifice. Auditt Rogers was un obstacle to the job, hence tl desire to retain bis disabilities, which woul r-'uiovo him. Trumbull said of the Grant un Colfax clubs which remonstrated against Roj ors' relief, that if the Senate is to bo govert el by Grant und Colfax clubs, the Senate lui better dissolve. Thc discussion wits interru] ted by the regular order. The- House is considering the tight of tl Secretary of thc Interior to restore tho WOB ington relics to General Lee. Thc .Indicia Committee of the House has closed the ci dence in the Bustccd ease, and the bearii of the r.rgument has commenced. The ir pression is strong that the Committee ha1 agreed to report a bill removing political di abilities without atiiendjiiQut. 'libena a threo hills pending-tho one on which tl the Reconstruction Committee passed SB abo is the ono which contains the nomo of Jud Parker, of Virginia, and General Moorina of Miss issi rmi. . . .T ff Logan offered a resolution of inquiry, I garding the restoration of Georgo Washin ton's property to Gen. Lee, and forbiding restoration, pending congressional inquiry a! action-passed-119 to 86.

Tho Senate adopted, a bill for the rel h f certain, companies of guides and scouts in i abam?. After n sharp debate on remov? political disabilities, the Senate resumed t army appropriation bill) and disQUS8ed.it recess. Brownlow, with sn escort of twenty p sons, arrived hero to day.

Tho Ooinmittee of Five, fi um Mississippi, representing thc cstfCino radicals, are much discouraged with tho course of events. Grunt, it is stated, will not resign thc Geo* erulship. Ho considers his office of Gene.al of tho Anny termin?tes with bis oath nf nil.co as President. It is allou?t impossible to move through tho Capitol, on account of tho crowd. Every tm i ti brings recruits. Gen. Grunt opposes unseating tho Georgia Representatives, und tho postponement of Goorgia matters by tho Reconstruction Com* mutee is attributable to his influence. Youiitr, member of Congress from Georgia, who has warm personal relation? with Graut, hud an interview with him lust night regard* : ing Georgia matters. General Grunt said Congress could not get around recognizing Georgia us u State in tho Union, nnd that be himself was opposed to interfering with her at all. G runt's visit to Routwoll this morning grew out of this interview. O ommunioations. VOR T1IK KEOWKK CO ll III Ul Public Meeting.

Also, that the unct|ual distribution of tito water course over thc county, and tho more numerous cross ing places in sonic Townships than others, und us n general thing, the whole public ?tte neat ly equally interested. Your memorialists feel and believe that it is unfair mid unjust to burden such Townships with heavy bridg tuxes, when they ure-?ot, in many instances, iblo to bear moro than their proportionate part of brid^o tax than when the whole Coun ty assisted in tho building and keeping up of these public benefits. It is also, in their opinion, unnecessary to have so many officers in tho Townships. Therefore, your memorialists would most re spectfully subni.it) fortdio consideration' of your honorable body, That, considering the num ber of publie roads, and the thin population of the County, tltut you continue that portion of tho old road law which requires every able bodied malo citizen botwecn the ?gos of 10 ind 60 yoars, to perform, when necessary, twolvo duyslsboror. pu??C f?*?-8? or pay $1.00 por day in lieu of work for tho time neces sary to koop tho public roads in good and suf* Soiont order for safe traveling. Also, that tho timos for working roads bo loft to tho cit izens of the Townships ; and that tho publie bridges be built and kept up by tho County it large, as heretofore. * Your memorialists would respectfully sug gest that tho ofttoe of Township Surveyor bo liscontfnuod, and that tho dutica of that office bo pcrfoftned by tho Seleotmen and Town ?lork.

CoMPitoMisiNO Ob? DBUTS.-We think i* duo to a groat many creditors in this and oth er parts of tho Stiito, (says tho .'Greenville (S. C.)
