' " WJien. the .news of Garibaldi's movement reached France, the young Duke dc Chcrreusc, who bad but a few months since resigned a commission in the Papal army, returned to Rome and rejoined the Zouaves as a private. He is one of the richest noblemen in France. Tho Monticello (Fla.) Gazette has the fol lowing: "A number of negroes came to town on Wednesday lust and tried to find Captain Knight, who they said was to meet thorn horo to-day for the purpose of distributing to the .\y Jreedracn, who had voted right, their share of mules, land, etc. The Captain, however, was not'on hand./ Li-n??i'J)AMAOE8 BY CoNFRDERATK PfilVATKERS. The statements forwarded to Mr. Adams by :! fi Secretary Seward, in the matter of the claims - ; by tho United States against England for damages done by Confederate privateers fitted out in English ports, exhibit the following ag V legates: Destroyed by the Alabama, $3,005,289.67 Destroyed by the Shonandoah, 3,169,291.10 Destroyed by tho Florida, 2,133,576.51 Grand total. $8,968,157.37 Mrs. Lincoln's brothers, as is known, were in the, Confederate army. The youngest of them started in April, 1861, from New Orleans, as a j-' private in tho Chasseurs a Pied, and being dis charged for sickness at Rich mo ml, in October of the same year, returned to his home; but, though ?tili suffering iu health ho left a wife and two babes to join tho Crescent regiment, in response to Beau regard's call, aud fell at Shiloh. Another, Captain Dave Todd, started with Col. Tom. Taylor of the First Kentucky Volunteers, nnd was also killed towards the endi of tho war. And tho third, Dr. Todd, served; throughout, as a distinguished surgeon. A Washington dispatch. Bays tho prospect of ah immediate repeal*of the Cotton Tax nrc not so promising. Tho true friends of tho meas ure, fcarfuj of a spontaneous opposition to movements originating on. their side of the 1 loose, are holding off, and; so far ovory bill in*, troduccd,' lopking to it repeal, has. a rjder which will kill it or provoke wcoks of discussion. A favorable action before Christ mas is highjy ini probable. The Committee of Ways and Means liavc ngrecd unanimously, in its session this morning, to report a bill for the repeal of the "Cotton Taj. Trial Of Mr. Davis. Mr. Evarts, fur the Govcrnincut,. said the intention of the Government was, to try the Davis case so no day this term. One consider ation in fixing tho any was the time when Chase would attend here, and the Government proposed to name a day, after the adjournment of the Supremo Court, for this trial, when Chase could sit with Uudcrwood. Evarts sug gested tho fourth Monday in March. O'Conor said tho personal convenience nf Mr. Davis would have been promoted if that had taken place in May last, and it would ho very con venient now, but his counsel would agree to tho proposition of Evarts. He thought the pre sence of Chase would bo beneficial, not alone to the interests of tho accused, but to all in terests. Judge Underwood said the arrange ment proposed by tho Government was agree able to the Court, and particularly because the Court earnestly desired that Judgo Chose should sit upon the case. It was due to the defendant that two Judges should sit in the case, in order that an appeal 'might be tu'ken on disputed questions, aud the cuse carried up by defendant to a higher Court. The Judge agreed to fix the 20th of March fur the trial; and, on application'of Mr. O'Connor, to extend Mr. Davis' bail bond until that time; and further agreed, if Judge Chase could not pre side then, to extend tho leave of absence till tho term following. The order of extension of leave of absence for Mr. Davis, and fixing the 22d March for the trial, was entered by order of the Judge, and Mr. Davis' trial ended for this term. Mr. Davis did not appear in Court. Three witnesses, who came into Court, Ex Secretary Seddon, Ex-Govcrnor hotelier and General Wickhnm, were recognized to appear at the next term. Seddon, Lcteher, and several other witnesses for the Government, were before the Grand Jury to-day, which shows that Mr. Davis will be tried on a new indictment at the next term in March. Mr. Davis will remain in Richmond several days. He will not spend the winter in Canada THE 0RANGEBUR& NEWS. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER, 30, 18G7. White we reserve to ourselves the riijht ofilefi ning our own political position by means of our editorial columns, tee will he pleased to publish contributions from our 'fellow-citizens vjxm the grave questions which now agitate the. public mind, whether their opinions coincide, with ours or not. A district newspaper, we consider, should be an index of the various shades of pop ? ular sentiment in the section of country in ich ich it circulates. Our columns are open, therefore, for nny communications properly written, accom panied by a responsible name, not j>r?WHi?/ in their character, nor absolutely injurious in their ' tendency. Negro Bonds. . . Our esteemed contributor "Paysan" has, ; with his usual acumen, and in his fluent and 1 graceful style, advocated in our present is*.ue the "Repudiation of Negro debts." We disa gree in opinion with Paysan on this subject, in toto. The sacred obligation of a contract does not depend merely on "honor," (if it did, that would be n good foundation) but it rests upon the sure basis of justice. Calamity to the debtor cannot free him from his duty to his creditor, even if it be by the act of God, and |not of man. Suppose a strong ease : A man purchases on credit a home for his family, and in that home collects articles of comfort for his wife and children. A stroke of lightning falls upon it, and it is reduced to ?sLe.??aa it were?by firo from Heaven. Thoi'O is the act of God, by which that man has boon reduced in fortune. Shall his remaining property be taken by his creditor to pay for that house aud its furuituro, and the unfortunate debtor bo re duced to penury I It is a hard case; but our friend Paysan wouid say with us, that the de struction of tho thing purchased is no absolu tion of the ifcbt. The risk is in the M owner. Suppose again : A and R, two broth ers, rcccivo oach n legacy of fivo thousand dol lars, gold. Each buys negro property before the war to the amount of live thousand dollars. A pays for his purchase in full; B buys his negroes on credit, and purchases a fine planta tion with his legacy, giving his bond for the negroes. Now, repudiate negro debts, and' where is the equal justice iu the case ? A has lost his negroes, nnd his legacy: while B has lost nothing, having actually made the value of the services of the uegrocs until their eman cipation. Again : as to guardians and trustees. If the guardian or trustee uses that fund for his own purposos, (which he has no right to do), ho must suffer the consequence of his own fault. If iu the course of his duty, he makes invest ments for the actual use and bencfiit of his ces tnis <nw trust and which were proper at the time, but afterwards turn out badly, the guar dian or trustee should not suffer. But a guar dian or trustee is only authorized by law to make certain, kinds of investments ; and if he makes others,, ho dues it at his peril. Wo hasten on> ami find, that Paysan wishes to change, tho Constitution. Wo would say, this is dangerous ground. TUo argument of Paysnu is the very argument of the extreme Radicals j and if his theory be correct, the Radicals have a right to establish Negro Su premacy iu tho South. A constitution is tho sacred bulwark which in times of political ex citement is to protect minorities from the en croachments of triumphant majorities. J,t makes no difference whether that majority be a party of rampant Radicals, or a party of un fortunate debtors,?tho principlo is tho samo. ? Wo wish wo had time to onlargc f>n. this subject. It is one of great interest, and wc sympathise deeply with the unfoftuuuju tu tors in our community. But there is nobility, there is sound philosophy, there is honor (real, and not merely so-called) in the maxim :?Fiat justitia, coelum ruat. The Gauss. The long looked. for ship, containing the first band of German Immigrants to our shores, arrived in Charleston on Thursday list. The whole number of immigrants is 152, and ample accommodations had been arranged for their reception. We clip from the Charleston Daily News, the following appropriate words of welcome. Cordially, heartily and earnestly docs the State of Carolina give greeting to hor German children. Sho has known,?in war and peace, ?tho thrift, the courage, the patience and the solid strength of those whose fortunes have long been united with her own ; and now she welcomes others of the same race and blood as warmly as she has cherished those who havo already been trusted, tried and proved.

The Court adjourned over until Friday. [roa t/ie onANGEiirno news, j Repudiation of Negro Debts. Mr. Editor :?I do not desire to write anything that would havo a tendency to create demoralization, nor would I hope to encourage a spirit of insubordination by presenting plain ly and openly before the readers of your enter prising journal a **ew remarks upon the indebt edness of our citizens, which though humble in style, nevertheless, I think to be true'. Of the same opinion with yourself, that a district nowspaper should bo an index of tho shade of sentiment of tho people among whom it circu lates, and that anything properly written and accompanied by a responsible name should not be suppressed unless productive of evil, there fore I have concluded to venture a few senti ments, which I think are typical of those en tertained by a large class of our citizens. Now, I do not wish to be understood in the premises as offering an excuse or begging license for any and everything that I may see fit to indite, for if what I write is not fact, the subject is open for discussion aud refutation. I know, that there aro many whose conscientious scru ples aud high sense of honor have been culti vated to such a nice degree of discrimination] that such sentiments as I may ndvanco in the following spacrt will bo condemned at once as the croation of a depravity of soul. But Mr. Editor, there is no use in trying to concoal tho fact. You may talk about your honor?this is indeed a very pretty and con venient term?it covers a multitude of sins. I do not mean to reflect lightly on this term, for its principles are ac sacred to me as any other man on earth. The idea I tneau to convey is tho enormity of abuse that hns been made of it. It is very easy for some people to "strain at a gnat aud swallow a camel." Abstract ideas concerning certain principles, have a pretty theoretical bearing with same, but do not work so well in the machinery of practical application. Well! what of all this ? Nothing at all, further than to show tho inconsistency between interested and theoretical and practical h?nor, and to try to^&satrose the 'ttindifpf ?tmioj; people of the iuea tbjit "till that glitters Ss notj gold? nnliS that prcfvlmrs do jiot at all time*' ?\1 j-*t SP- F "?' * ? ' 3' i * practice what they"preach." The peoplo of South Carolina are sufferers ?a calamnity has befallen them from which it will probably tako a century to recover. Tho pen and the sword {have "rpduccd them to j condition, which compared to tho position they occupied, before tho war might be placod in the ratio of one to fifty. For this comparison wo can have no exact and tangible method by which to arrive at tho correctness of its truth. But everything considered we do not believe it nn exaggeration. The federals destroyed our dwellings, our granaries, corn houses, gins, mills, plantation fences,, burned our cotton, carried oft our inules and horses, also our hogs and cattle.or shot them down in bur yards and pastures, and by its final achievement reduced I our curreucy to naught. By the, Northj our slaves have been emancipated, which resulted in the loss to South Carolina of two hundred million dollars. Mauy of these emancipated slaves have died siucc the war. many have emi grated to othor countries, and those left be hind are so completely in tho bauds of party power as to be rendered of very littlo benefit as an clement of labor." The only property left .us is our laud.. This without tho. means to work it has reduced in value from an Vivcragc of ten dollars an acre to three dollars and even as low as ten cents an acre, Tho peo ple who couldvhave paid thier debts when they owned property, nnd money was plentiful hut were provented by the existence of a stay law, which strange to say, was allowed to remain in force as constitutional theft, but which since that time has been adjudged of a different na ture, are now more deeply involved than ever by the accumulation of interest, with not the one-tenth part of the means for satisfying the de mands aguiust them. Since the war they have made overy exertion to pay out.1 But instead of nccompliohing this object J^hcy have only got farther from it. Generally they have been barely able to make enough to subsist on. But what are they to do ? It would not do to fold their arms to their situations, and yet every effort seems only to increase their embarrass ments. "Were they out of debt, they could make enough by their own labor to the exclu sion of the negro to subsist on. But how aro they to get out? "Would that some wiser head than mino could suggest. ProbaTdy you who gkjpow nothing of tho character of ?tho labor with which we have to contend will say, work out. Wu have tried it, the plan dou't succeed .under existing circumstances. It is as impossible for the laud owners of this State to pay their old debts as it is for them to change the course of the Sun. 1 do not make this assertion to discourage those who have any desire to make the attempt nor to promote my own intorcsts as I do not owe a single old debt in the 'world. /Talk about paying old debts?it is absurd. There is no use iu trying to conceal the fact? Jit is impossible nnd the people know it. "Blootl cannot be extracted from a turni]>." You may throw open the courts and sell their property, but this will not pay the debts. It may be a satisfaction for Mr. Creditor to bid iu 31 r Debtor's lund and thereby gain an addition of a thousand or two acres to his already large and uuwcildly body. C is very littlo better effb)" ?his change of ownership, while D is rendered penniless. Tho war was a general calamnity. The losses and misfortunes it entailed upon us were unavoidable and we should not be held responsible to make them good. Nearly every ono in the State are involved iu debts contract ed during and boforo the war. I owo B, C, owes D and D, E, &o. In order for me to pay B what I owo him T must sue A C, in order to pay D sues B, i&c, probably the sucing con tinuing down to the seventh or eighth man. "Wh:u the last man has been sued tho proba bility is that not more than one dollar out of every soveu or eight of G's claim is satisfied. Thus A, B, C, &c., are all sold out to satisfy the claims of G, who is very little better off than ho was before. The same is true, iu re gard to securities. Two or three or more men are all sold out to satisfy the demands of one num. But say yon, what will become of the minors and wards ? Without wishing in the least to roflcct upon the.so wards of public sym pathy, we would state that since the war, these too. have boon very convenient tools in the hands of those who wishing to plead up their own interests havedono so in behalf of minors. We confess that wo broach the subject of minors with somo degroo of delicacy, for w j know that we have only to touch any point re lating to thoir interests^ to touch the chord of publio sympathy. We will venturo a little way, however, coutc one conic. Guardians, who have invested the property of minors or ?Ward? in lands or other property (excepting negroes and Confederate bo-ids.") should of . ' ' ? e 1: , ' ? '* . course, bp held responsible. This, though not 'exartlysfuir, the advantage being in favor fifctho' |biinors| could mit probably bo nrrivetl'at any ic^rjjr, except that in case of investment in iaiiilsrinstead of holding the Guardian rcspon sibio for what the l.m?b? sold forfbVpre. thQ( war, let the same revert back to minor?. But Hupposo the minors' property was all invested iu negroes ? Let them be the losers of course' ftViif the Guaroian js heldiresponsiblevit is 4 double loss on him. He has lost the negroes, and then has to make good their emancipation, which is equivalent to holding him responsible for whot the United States did and which it is impossible fdr him to undd. ' Suppose he had invested tho property in Confederate bonds 1 The law provides in this, case that the minors and wards shall bo the losers. TJie. same power , that destroyed the validity of the bonds destroyed the validity of a bill of sale for the negro. Then why ex empt him in the one case and not in the other. The same right that applies to hold him re sponsible for investment in negroes applies with equal force in the case of investment in Confederate bonds. But neither the one nor the other are just, therefore why not abrogate both ? But how can wo arrive at this ? Any. act that "impairs the obligation of contracts'' is contrary to the Constitution of the State and of the United States. Constitutions arc framed in order to "estab lish justice to promote the general welfare" and to suit the exigencies of the times at which they arc made. "What would promote the wel fare of a people to-duy, fifty or a hundred years hence would possibly be productive of evil and opposed to its best interests. A law that works for the general good at the time of its enactment dues not guarantee that it will do so always and under all circumstances. ' If ad hering to set principles in the nature o^ our Constitution is inimical to our best interests why not change that. Constitution, and adapt it to suit the circuinstauccs of the people, whose welfare it is intended to promote ? AYhon this instrument is an impediment in deciding a question of moment that concerns the general good why not submit the desire for its change to the test of the people ? True, tho Consti tution of the United States says, "no,.State shall past'any act impairing the obligation of contracts. Then let the State tall n Convcn tum and memorialize.Congress fur an aweud meat to tho Constitution. It is d matter of little concern to Congress, whether the citi zens of South Carolina, pay their individual debts or not. Of course all obligations con tracted with citizens residing beyond the limits of the State will have to be met. Then say you, that every man will transfer his claims to citizens residing beyond the limits of the State. Wc think not. Every community knows very well the extent of the in debtedness, and to whom of each, member who composes it. Beside when it" could be proved that the party transferred his claim out side of the limits of the State to avoid having it re pudiated, let such transfer be illegal and' void Tliir. would prevent foreigners from abetting or accepting claims of doubtful tendency upon citizens of the State. Thcso remarks havo been advanced in the attempt to show the general evil that will re sult to the country at large from the collection of all old debts. To correct this evil entirely may be impracticable, Repudiation of afi old debts would, no doubt, strike a heavy blow to a groat many persons, but on the other hand, wc believe its consummation would ward off a great mauy more that will occur if it does not take place. ^Leaving general repudiation out of the question, howovcr, wo bolicve that tho people of South Carolina would bo doing hcmsclvcs and their posterity an injustice not o repudiate, at least, negro dobts, if such lies vithiu the range of practicability.)
