Tho best way to repeal the cotton tax is to stop planting the cotton. '"'It's very poor business, as times go and as they promise"'to go. When , the news of Garibaldi's movement -" reached France, the young Duke do ChcTrcusc, I who hhd but a few months since resigned a commission in tho Papal army, returned to Rome and rejoined tho Zouaves as a private. He is one of tho richest noblemen in France. Tha Monticello (Fla.) Gazette has the fol lowing : "A number of negroes came to town on Wednesday last and tried to find Captain Kpight, who they said was to meot thom hero to-day for the purposo of distributing to the frecdmcn, who had voted right, their share of mules, land, etc. The Captain, however, was not on hand.' JJamagbs by Confederate Pbivateeus, The statements forwarded to Mr. Adams by Secretary Seward, in the matter of the claims ? ; by ;the United States against England for ? damages dono by Confederate privateers fitted out in English ports, exhibit the following ag $ gregates : Destroyed by the Alabama, 83,065,289.67 Destroyed by tho Sbenandoah, 3,169,291.1? 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 private in the Chasseurs a Pied, and being dis charged for sickness at Richmond, In October of the same year, returned to his home; but, though still suffering in health ho left a wife aud two babes to join the Crescent regiment, in 'response to Bcaurcgurd's call, and fell at Shiloh. Another, Captain Dave Todd, started with Col. Tom. Taylor of the FirBt Kentucky Volunteers, and was also killed towards the end of the war. And the third, Dr. Todd, served- throughout as. a distinguished surgoon. A Washington dispatch Bays tho prospect of an immediate repeal of tho Cotton Tax ore not so promising.

A favorable action before Christmas is highly im probable The Commit tee of Ways and Means liave ngrecd unanimously, in its session this morning, to report a bill for the-repeal of the "'Cotton Ta^. * ? ' ' V ? ' "? - Trial of Mi-. Bftvis. Mr. Evarta, for tho Government, said the intention of tho Government was, to try tho Davis case some day this term. One consider ation in fixing tho day was the timo when Chase would attend here, and the Government proposod to name a day, after the adjournment of the Supremo Court, for this trial, when Chase could sit with Uuderwood. Evarta sug gested tho fourth Monday in March. O'Conor said tho personal convenience of Mr. Davis would have been promoted if that had taken place in May last, and it would bo very con venient now, but his counsel would agree to the proposition of Evarta. He thought the pre sence of Chase would bo bcucficinl, not alone to the interests of tho accused, but to all in terests. Judge Underwood said the arrange ment proposod by tho Government was agree able to the Court, and particularly because the Court earnestly desired that Judgo Chase should .fit upon the case. It was due to tho defendant that two Judges should sit in the case, in order that an appeal 'might be taken on disputed questions, aud tho ca?o 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 b}* order of the Judge, nnd Mr. Davis' trial ended for thiB term. Mr. Davis did not appear in Court. Three witnesses, who came into Court, Ex Secretary Seddon, Ex-Governor Lctehor and General Wickhnm, were recognized to nppoar at the next term. Seddon, Lctehor, aud 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. lie will not speud the winter in Canada THE 0RANGEBUR& NEWS~ SAT?11DAY, NOVEMBER 30, 18G7. White ice reserve to uiirselves (he right of defi ning our own political position by means of our etlitorial columns, w. will be pleased to publish conir ibid ions from our fellow-citizens upon the grave questions which now agitate the jntblic m'ind, 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 which it circulates. Our columns are open, therefore, for nfiy< communications properly written, aecom pumed by a responsible name, not personal in their Character, nor absolutely injurious in their tendency, Negro Ilonds. Our esteemed contributor uPnysan" has, with his usual acumen, and in his fluent and graceful style, advocated in our present is?ue the "Repudiation of Negro debts." >Yc disa gree iu opinion with Paysnn 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 htm from his duty to his creditor, eveu if it be by the act of God, and |not of man. Suppose a strong ease : A man purchases on credit a homo for his family, and in that home collect? articles of comfort for his wife and children. A stroke of lightning falls upon it, and it is reduced to ?sbe??-AJ9 H were?by fire from Heaven. Theft) is the act of God, by which that man has been reduced in fortune. Shall his remaining property he taken by his creditor to pay for that houso aud its furuituro, and the unfortunate debtor be re duced to penury ! It is a hard case; but our friend Paysan would say with us, that the de struction of the thing purchased is no absolu tion of the debt. The uisk is in the owner. Suppose again : A and R, two broth ers, receive oach a legacy of fivo thousaud dol lars, gold. Each buys negro property before the war to the amount of five thousand dollars. A pays for his purchase in full; R buys his negroes on credit, and purchased a fine planta tion with his legacy, giving his bond for the negroes. Now, repudiate negro debts, and where is the eijual justice iu tho case? A has lost his negroes, nnd his legacy: while R has lost nothing, having actually made tho value of tho services of the nogrocs until their eman cipation. Again: as to guardians and trustees. Jf the guardian or tiustcc uses that fund for his own purposes, (which ho has no right to do), ho must suffer the consequence of his own fault. If in the course of his duty, he makes invest ments for the actual use and bencfiit of his ces tnis quo trust and which wero projwr at the timo. but afterwards turn out badly, the guar dian or trustee should not suffer. Rut a guar dian or trustco is only authorized by law to make certain. Vi?ds of investments ; ami if ho makes others, ho docs it at his peril. Wq hasten on, aud1 find, that Paysnn wishes to change tho Cc institution, Wo would say, this is dangerous ground. Tho argument of Paysan is the very argument ?T the extreme Radicals; mid if his theory he correct, the Radicals have a right to establish Negro Su premacy in tho South. A constitution is tho sacred bulwark which in timcB of political ex citement is to protect minorities from the en croachments of triumphant majorities. It makes no difference whether that majority be a party of rampant Radicals, or a party of un fortunate dobtors,?tho principlo is tho same. ? Wo wish wo had time to enlarge jon; this subject. It is one of great interest, and we sympathise deeply with the unfortunnto .de ters iu our community. But thero is nobility, there is sound philosophy, thero is honor (real, and not merely so-called) in the maxim :?Fiat ju8titia, coelum euat. The Gauss. j _ ? rf f: The long looked for ship, containing tho first band of German Immigrants to our shores, arrived in Charleston on Thursday last. The whole number of immigrants is 152, and ample accommodations had been arranged for their reception. Wc clip from the Charleston Daily News, the followiug appropriate words of WELCOME. Cordially, heartily and earnestly docs the State of Carolina give greeting to her German children. She 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 have already been trusted, tried and proved. Caro lina rejoices in Ibis new accession to her strength, and wishes to each and cvcryTono a heartfelt God-spcod! - .i ?! ??

Tho Court adjourned over until Friday. [for the oR.vsoEnrno newh.] 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 tho readers of your enter prising jourtin! a ^cw remarks upon the indebt edness of our oitizons, 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 the 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 hove concluded to venture a few senti ments, which I think arc 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 ond evorything*that I may see fit to indite, for if what I write is not fact, the subject is open for discussion and refutation. I know, that there aro many whose conscientious scru ples aud high sense of honor have been culti vated to such a nice degreo of discrimination; that such sentiments as T may advance in the following space will be condemned at once as the croation of a depravit}' 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 aud con venient term?it covers a multitude of'sius. I do not mean to reflect lightly on this term, for its principles arc as sacred to me as any other mau on earth. The idea I mean to convey is the onormity of abuse that has been made of it. It is very easy for some people to "strain at a guat and swallow a camel." Abstract ideas concerning certain principles, have a pretty theoretical bearing with soma, but do not work so well in the machinery of practical application. Well! what of all tins ? Nothing ?v ? * , . i at all, further than to show the inconsistency between interested and theoretical and practical honor, and to try to disabuse the ttindgof s^njei, peoplo of the idea that "rill that glitters Is' not* gold" and that' prentJicrs do riot ,at all times' practice what theyiprcach.*' v ?: The people of South Carolina are sufferers ?a calamhity has befallen them from which it will probably take r century to recover. Tho pen and the sword lhave [rpduccd thero-^1 to j condition, which compared to tho position they ^ccupie?Vbefore the war nrigty bp placedin the ratio of bhe ta fifty. For this5 comparison we can have no exact and tangible method by which to arrive at tho correctness of its truth. But everything considered we do not believo, it an exaggeration. The federals destroyed our dwellings, our granaries, corn houses, gins, mills, plantation fences,, burned our cotton, carried oft our mules and horses' also our hogs ? - :-. .,; . to* ft 1 and cattle or shot them down in bur yards and pastures, and by its final achievement reduced our currency to naught. By the, Northj our slaves have been emancipated, which resulted in the loss to South Carolina of two hundred million dollars. Many of these emancipated slaves have died since the war. many have emi grated to other countries, and those left be hind are so completely in the hands of party power as to be rendered of very littlo benefit as an clement of labor. The only property left us is our land. This witLout the-means to work it has reduced in vajuc from an pvcrnge of ton dollars an acre to tlircc dollars jand even as low as ten cents au acre. | Tho peo ple who could'have paid thier debts when they owned property, and money was plentiful but were prevented by the existence of a stay law, which strange to say, was allowed to remain in force as constitutional then, 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 *lic de mands agoiust them. Siuce the warthoy have made overy exertion to pay out.1 But' iiistcad of accomplishing this object ^hoy have only got farther from it. Generally they have been barely able to make enough to subsist on. But .what.arc 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. Wore 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 mine could suggest. Frobably you who ?Jiow nothing of tho character of ?tho labor, with which we have to contend will say, teorfc out. We have tried it, the plan don't succeed .under existing circumstances. It is us impossible ? for the laud owners of this State to pay their old debts as it is for them to change the course of the Suu. I do not make this assortion to discourage those who have any desire to make tho attempt nor to promote my bVn interests as I do not owe a singlo old debt in the world. tfTalk about paying old debts?it is absurd. There is no use iu trying to conceal the fact? {it is impossible and the people know it. "Blood cannot be extracted frov* a turnip." You may throw open the courts and sell their proporty, but this will not pay the debts. It may bo a satisfaction for Mr. Creditor to bid in Mr Debtor's land and thereby gain an addition of a thousand or two acres to his already large aud uuwcildly body. C is very littlo better off tj *V\b change of ownership, while D is rendered penniless. Tho war was a general oalamnity. 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 beforo the war. I owo B, C, owes D and 1), E, &c. In order for mo to pay B what I owo him I must sue A 0, in order tp pay P sues B, Sic., probably the sueing con tinuing down to the seyenth or eighth mau. Whsn the last man has been sued tho proba bility is that not more than one dollnr out of every (T?ven or eight of G's claim is satisfied. Thus A, B, C, &c, arc all sold out to satisfy the claims of G, who is very little better off than be was before. The same is true, iu re gard to securities. Two or three or more men are all sold out to satisfy the deniauds of one man. But say you, what will become of the minors and wards ? Without wishing iu the least to reflect upon these wards of public sym pathy, wc would state that since tho war, these too, havo boon very convenient tools in the hands of those who wishing to plead up their own interests havodono so in behalf of minors. Wc confess that wo broach the subject of minors with somo degroo of delicacy, for wo kuow that we havo only to touch any point re lating to their interests, to touch the chord of public sympathy. Wc will venturo a tittle way, however, route quk come, Gunrdiaus, who hiivo invested tho property of liiinurs or wards in lands or other properly (excepting negroes and Coufudoralc bonds.) shonld of o^urso, bp bold responsible. This, though not exactly fair, the advantage beiug in favor of the minor*) cpuld not probably ho arrived at any ju^rbr, ?copt that in caw of investment in lan^Priii?tcad of holding the Guardian respon sible tor what tho Limb? sold for .before^ tho. war, let the same revett back to mittom Bot suppose the minors' property was all invested iu negroes ? Let them be tho losere of coarse1 fbrjif ^he Guardian js held responsible lit is a double loss on him. He has lost the negro**, and then has to make good their emancipation, which is equivalent to holding him responsible for what the United States did and which it is impossible fdr him to undo. ,f-* j Suppose he had invested tho property in Confederate bonds ? The law provides in this, case that the minors and wards shall be the losers. The 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 bondB. But neither the one nor the other are just, therefore why not abrogate both ? But how can we arrive at this ? Any. act that "impairs the obligation of contracts" is contrarv 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-day, fifty or a hundred years hence would possibly be productive of o tl and opposed to its best interests. A law that works for the general good at the time of its enactment docs 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 ?fe to suit the circumstances of the people, whose welfare it is intended to promote ? AY hon this instrument is an uupediment 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, the Consti tution of the United States says, "uo,. State shall pass any act impairing the obligation of contracts. 'Then lot the State call n Conven tion and uicmer.i'.lize.Congress fur an amend ment to the Constitution. It is a 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 bo met. Then say you, that every man will trnusfer his claims to citizens residing beyond' the limits of the State. AVc think not. Every community knows very well the extent of the in debtedness, and to whom of each, member who composes it. Beside when if could be proved that the party transferred his claim out side of the limits of tho State to avoid having it re pudiated, let such transfer ho illegal and* void This would prevent foreigners from abetting or accepting claims of doubtful 'tendenoy upon citizens of the State. These remarks have 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 all old debts would, no doubt, strike a heavy blow to' a groat many persons, but on the other band, we believe its consummation would ward off a great many more that will occur if it does not take place. ^ Leaving general repudiation out of the question, howover, wo believe that tho people of South Carolina would bo doing hcmselvca and their posterity an injustice not o repudiate, at least, negro debts, if such lies vithiu the range of practicability.)
