% For the Times. LETTER FROM CHARLESTON. * { Charleston, S. C., May 1 '2. , This has been a gain week in the "City by the t Sea." W? have had the most delicious weather y, and a variety of sensations. A big excursion 0 parly from Ueorgiaoueday overflowed the whole B city in search of pleasure, and some got more f, than they contracted for. j Then we hi d the Press Association, with Dr. t| Bagby's inimitable personal illustrations; theu Cantatas and Mrs. Jonley's Wax works at night <1 %y theyuvenRes^^l Regattas in day time by ? the' ^^^^fkooiS, Episcopal Con- ^ ' vention, and Memorial Day, crowued by the B1 satisfaction or knowing that tho old Btato is tl once more free under "Hampton and Homo P Rule." The Bankers, Brokers and Factors have been <1 wonderfully exercised about the Usury Law, ar-d s| die "Chamber of Commerce," as usual, has ^ besn called on to scotch if not kill the snake.? " There is a grim humor in the whole proceedure, and the poor farmers ought to feel very thank* ful for the iutorcst those gentlemen take in their ^ affairs. Of course their only wish in making 8( money plenty and cheap is to benefit the bor* si rowers?the poor farmer. There is one difficulty in the solution of this problem, however. If money can be borrowed fc in New York or anywhere else for 3, 4, 6 or 6 Si per cent., it is suro to become dearer when it ' gets down here. The risks of transportation are ^ so great, we guess. ft lid. Wo arc told by the Banks and Bankers 0j that they have millions lying idle in their vaults. The trouble is, not the scarcity of money, but of collateral*. Any man who ?an pile up the col- gl laterals, and is willing to pay one per cent, a to mouth, can get his note cashed. ti 3d. When the Usury Law was about to be 8' f abolished, these same Bankers and Brokers assurcd us of the most beneficial effects which Co must follow. The benefits did not come to the y< class which most needed help?the money went into the Banks; the Banks declared large dm- ^ dends, and the poor people paid the peualty. d, We are not taking a "political economy" th view of this question at all. We don't deny the right any man has to sell his money at the high- ^ p. est price he can get for It. We don't wonder at the opposition of Bankers to a Usury Law. They know where the shoe pinches, but wo do object to their basing their ]|( opposition upon false grounds. The other party Wi have a right to try the experiment?particularly in as they are to be the sufferers. We reckon the |? Bankers can stand it as long as the borrowers j)( have stood the other experiment. cu The Legislature seems inclined to give the d< questiou the go-by for the present, and during the recess the subject will be ventilated in the J,* press and on the stump. Well, when the crop su is laid by the people will need a little stirring up. w Times arc in danger of growing dreadfully ^ mm. inure are uviucni signs 01 improvement in business in the City since the new regime be- n< gan. The old houses are being repaired, new cc houses built, new fences and fixtures are going 01 up. Tho whitewash brush litis been brought into J.( requisition and a more cheerful look is given M to everything. Although trade cannot improve I" until the new crop couics in, there is a hopeful- w ncss about the peoblc, a feeling of security and g, an assurance that times must grow better, that is ol quite cheering. iVages arc better and men work with a better heart. The health of the City is very good. Tho market gardeners have been enjoying their ,| harvest. Immense quantities of fruits uud veg- K etables have been shipped North, we presume ^ with profit. Green I'eas, Snap Beans, Beets, Turnips and Asparagus, arc now so abunduut 0| that any body can afford lo indulge in such lux- si uries. Strawberries arc abundant and cheap, al and Blackberries arc being ding-donged about the streets at low down figures. ? The war news still continues to he startling, tl The position of Great Britain is critioal. If ' that power should become involved there is no s calculating how or when it will end. n, The true policy of our people is to plant less E cotton and grow more provisions. Will they do P it? It is madness to plant a large crop of cot- n ton, under the present aspect of things in the old world, with a knowledge of a full supply on }; nand. NOUS VKRKONS. ; . . . lux WicKKnsKss.?During the discussion ic mn.it.-. ' S Mr. Wells, from Richland, moved to add an '' appropriation of $1,108.67 for the support of '! tli? Normal .School to dune 1, 1877, and spoke in f' favor of his motion, urging it on the ground that *s the Normal. School was doing much good in the a preparation of teachers. Mr. Simpson?It has been said that tho Democratic party is pledged to provide educational ,c facilities for tho colored people. Well, sir, we have fulfilled those pledges in appropriating large sums for tho public schools, and we have ni Appropriated nothing for the education of the white children. We intend to keep our pledges, (| hut we do not intend to foster every institution .that has been gotten up here in the last few ^ years. In those years the white people have ' been almost entirely excluded from education by Mr. Shcpp&rd?Tlio constituents of the gen- j ilematy from Richland (Mr. Wells) do not pay 1-10 of the taxes, while they get 0-10 of the ben- ^ efits of educntion by the State. What rccogni- t|( ition have the white people had upon this floor 1j| for the last ten years? Our pledges are more ihan redeemed by the appropriations we have ||( already mndc, and my only apprehension is that ca pur constituents may not sustain us in them.? As far as the character ef the institution is concerned, I would tell this House about it, were it J net for circumstances which at this (noment surround us (the presence of ludies in the hall.)? I have information in relation to the conduct of that institution which would justify this Regis- *-'fl lature in wiping it out of existence at once, for be it is a disgrace to tho State and to civilization. Against the good that is done there 1 can show that it does ten times the harm. It is a den of pi wickedness and a hotbed of infamy. j The motion to amend was laid on the table. Faiikwp.i.i., Fatty.?-Old fraud Whitlemore ha< ( r left us. Rebellious, Ku Klu* South Carolina was too hot for the old firebrand, and the burly "Duke of Darlington" will be no more among us forever. The old thieving mush tub sudden)y discovered yesterday that the salubrious cli- j i nu ui otiiiui i uroiina nan oeen inaiie verj -m?i?-kly for him by the investigating conimittco, 8n nml asked for an indefinite leave of abseneo in 0,1 consequence of "sickness in his family." God ' forbid that we should deny even a condemned In< murderer such a privilege, if ho rcnlly required VVf it, but, from sources which wc could not doubt, we learn that thu old cadetship-scller, seeing the penitentiary in the distance, and not disease and death in his family, concluded to pretend the on- and avoid the other, and so "got up and M g I;" like a good, little, fat llndical thief as he t i<. Good-bye. old buy. South t'nrolina has spi been cursed with no greater v ;inp than the sir Senator from Ibirlinglnn, who made his start in foi South Carolina by marrying the emancipated <0 bl.mks at a dollar a head in gang*- >d' fifties and hundreds, -^ofnmhiir /{r<ji*(<r. BM&. I<ast week wo stale J that tho Tax for Itnto purposes, as reporte<l by the committee, vould he only five mills 011 the dollar. Since lien the Committee have added a section to the ill. providing for the pay me at of the interest n the public debt, which increases tho tax to even mills for State purposes and three mills or County purposes, or ten mills in all, against 8 mi.ls last year. Tho s:ction providing f?r ho interest oti the public debt reads thus: "That the sum of three hundred thousand ollars, or so much thereof as may be necessary, nd the same is hereby appopriated, to pay the anuary and July, 1877, interest upon the con-i 1 olidated bonds and certificates of the State isued uuder tho provisions of the Act to reduce he volume of the public debt ; provided, that 110 incicui aniiii ui" applied Jo tlie paymeut of lie interest upon the said consolidated bonds nd certificates of State stock until the holders jercof shall have submitted the same to the inpection and scrutiny of a Commission raised ?r the purpose by the General Assembly and ntil said Commission shall have determined the line to be valid and bona Jide." Mat. Hkno Hun Out.?Washington, May 8.? t the Cabinet meeting to-day, the court maral case of Miyor Kcno, 7th Cavalry, was pre sntcd to the President for final action, and relltcd in the promulgation, at a late hour this Tternoon, of the following order : War Department, May 8, 1877. The proceedings in this case, having been irwnrded under the 100th article of war to the ecretary of War, have been most carefully condered, and havo been submitted to the l'resie?t, who approves the findiugs and sentence, at is pleased to mitigatcthc latter (osuspcnBion oin rank and pay for two years from the 18th r May, 1877. Mtyor lleno's conduct toward the wife of an went officer, and in ustng the whole force of is power as commanding officer of the post to *atify his resentment against her, cannot be 0 strongly condemned, but after long dolibcraon upon all the circumstances of the case, as town in the records of the trial, it is thought iat his grave offenses, grave as they arc, do not arrant the sentence of dismissal and all its insequences, upon one who has for twenty ;ars borne the reputation of a brave man and inorablc officer, and has maintained that repuDn upon the battle fields of the rebellion and 1 contest with the Indians. The President has, creforc, modified the sentence, and it is hoped iat Major Reno will appreciate tho clemency iut shown him, as well as the very reprchcnsie nature of the act of which ho was found lilty. [Signed] Geo. W. McCreart, Secretary of War. Plant Corn.?How many farmers may bo iard to sav naxt. .viiimr 'It* t lio,t linnwn '" iir between Russia nml Turkey was going t? volvc balf of Europe, and run provisions up so high a price, 1 would have planted no cotn at nil, but put all uiy land in corn, peas and itatocs, to raise bacon,'' . Well they enjj j^ilj rry out a part of this plan, and if"th? mjir >cs not involve t half of Europe, Russia and jrkey, aggregating one hundred millions of :ople, are sufficient to raise the prices eonsid ably; and if the prices were not raised at all, ich a provision crop would far exceed in value lint the farmer can do with cotton. Corn can s planted until the middle of May and make !ry good crops, especially if the season is wet, i it promises to be. If half the cotton fields, )w planted, were plowed up and planted in irn, the result would be all the better for the vners and for the country. If the other great jwers of Europe should become involved in the niggle, what then will you do with your staple, Ir. cotton-planter ? Hold it ? Well, if you avc no debts to pay, you may do that, but it ill require the sagacity of a Philadelphia lawcr, and he to be looking through the most pow ful perspective, in order to discover tlio ghost f a chance for better prices.
