THE ORAN?EBURG NEWS SATURDAY, OCT. 0, im. MALCOLM I. BROWNING, Editor. \ The Homestead Law. There is do question in which moro interest is felt by our people than in i that whether the homestead law is law and will stand. Wo have been frequent ly asked our opinion upon tho question ?ml have been 'requested to express it through our columns. "Without occupying space with apolo gies for our inability and diffidonce to discuss this important logal question, wo will give It our consideration this week. We contend that the Homestead ex emption in n wise and beneficent pro vision of law, sanctioned by a geuerous humanity for the wives and children of unfortunate or improvident husbands aud fathers, and operating for the peace and welfare of the people and the State in preventing the multiplication of pau pers, and the immigration of our citizens, consequent upon the general aud indis criminate sale of their homes, and com ing in with peculiar benefit to our peo ple in postponing tho payment of debts, which the result of the war bad prevent ed their paying, and the payment of which, now at once, would take all, their homes and all that the ravages of war and defeat had left them. We contend that while it confers such vital and in.rinsic beucfit to the debtor it does not defeat the rights of tho credi tor, it only postpones the payment of his claims, aud advances tho public good, the weal of tho State, and "tho good of the greatest number." The Constitution of 18G8, was accept. ed by the Congress of the United States, as the basis upon which the State should return to its right of representation in the Union, as the fundamental law of the State, and the declared will of the people," under which they should be restored to all the privileges of a State. Now this Constitution, Article 2, Section 32, provides that, '?The family homestead of the head of each family residing in this State, such homestead consisting nt dwelling house, outbuildings, and lauds to the valuo of $1000, shall be exempt from attachment, levy or sale, under any mesne or fiual prooee* issued from any court." The Act of September 9th, 18G9, en titled "An act to determine and perpet uate the homestead," passed in obedieucc to this provision of the Constitution, de fines and settles this as the law until overruled by the Supreme Court. The Act of January 15th, 18G9, entitled, "An act to punish Sheriffs and other officers for violating tho homestead," clearly shows the will and determination of the people to carry out and insist upon the beneficial results of this law. But while we contend for the wisdom and beneficent results of this law, and insist that it is tho law iu South Caroli na, now, provided for in the Constitution and enforced by these acts of the Legis lature, still we do admit that there are techuical, Constitutional objections that may be urged against its perpetuation. Judge Krakinc of Georgia in a late decision involving the constitutionality of this lav, aatd that his duty was clear ly marked out that "if any of tho State exemption laws are in conflict with the Constitution of the Uuited States they taust yield." Indeed Article 0, of the Constitution of the United States is clear upon this point. It says, "This Constitution and the laws of the Uuited States? made in pursuance thereof &c., shall be the supreme law of the land; end the judges in every State ?hall be bound thereby, anything in the Constitution or laws of any State to the contrary notwithstanding. This language olearly points out the duties of Judges and in obedienco to their bath of office, they may well hesi tate as to whether this law is not in con faet with the clause of the Constitution of the United States, whioh prohibits any State "from passing any law impair ing the obligations of contracts." Judge Orr, in his able opiuion in the case of Shelor vs. Mason, in Ooonoe County, says that this objection to the law is met by numerous authorities, re cognising the right of State legislatures to pane laws exempting property of a debtor from levy and sale even for aute oedent debts. The learned Judge contends that these exemptions >]n not thorny tb.? remedy for onforcing cuiilruOts, but merely ?od?-1 fies it, without substantially imjHiiriHg I its efficiency, and therefore do not coy Hiet with the provision of the Constitu tion of the United Stutos.' g TIub was the opinion of Judge Douiu of New York, and of^. Judge Putuian of J Massachusetts, and wus the deeisiou of the Supreme Court of Michigan. The Supreme Court of Georgia, . has decided in a recent caso, that the ex emption of a hmne8tead of the value of 82000, authorized by the Constitution of that State, from levy and sale, even for antecedent debts, liens and judgments is valid und does not impair the obliga tion of contracts. Tho Supreme Court of tho Uuited States has admitted that "laws may be passed by tho State legis latures exempting tools or hosehold goods from levy or sale under existing contracts." Judge Orr argues that "if tho princi ple is once admitted that property may be exempted, the enactment is not un constitutional which simpiy cularges the amouut of property so exempt," and "that the Homestead Exemption is as constitutional as the old 'cow and bed* law of this Stato." Tho Statute of Limitations, the In solvent Debtors Act, tho Act abolishing imprisonment of debtors, all these aro upon the samo principle of generous hu manity to the debtor and for the good of the Stuto aud all these are recognized as constitutional ; then why should this homestead exemption whose humane pro vision will cheer aud bless thousands of beggared families, and save the widows and the little ones of our gallant aud heroic dead from poverty, and crime, why should this bo overruled and ren dered null, uuder the plea of its uncon stitutionally ! "All contracts arc made with a full knowledge of the parties that the law making power may modify the remedy." Chief Justico Marshall said : ' With out impairing tho obligation of the con tract, the remedy may certainly be modi-1 ficd, as the wisdom of the nation shall direct." The wisdom and policy and weal of the State certainly directs that this hu mane provisiou should be carried out and enforced. Judge Orr, biso assumes tho position that South Carolina was not under the protection and governance of the Consti tution of tho United States, at the time of tho ratification of tho Constitution of 1868, and the Supreme, Court of tho United States has decided that State laws passed prior to 1798,?the date of the ratification of the Constitution^?im pairiug the obligation of Contracts, were valid, as the Constitution prior to that I time did not exercise any limit to State I legislation. No damage is done by this law to the creditor. By the decision that this law is constitutional, his mortgage is good, is rccoguiscd but subject to the condition that the defendant shall onjoy a home stead, in accordance with the Constitu tion and laws of this State. And this modification of the creditors remedy is for the good of the public, and the State, in the cause of a high, and holy human-, tty. I It is a maxim of general acceptation, Fiat jtutitea, mat roelum. "Let justico be done though the heavens fall :" ut when .Justice can be done in accordance with the dictates of a humane mercy, and for the well being of the community, we say let it be done in this way. In conclusion regarding this law at wise and beneficial, we hope that the technical objections to it will be over ruled, and this Homestead Law will be established, tttprenia lex. Why Thky Don't Advertise.?It is a matter of surprise to many that all merchants do not advertise. Tho sup position is that it they have goods for sale, they want people to know it, and it is a mystery why they neglect the best means of spreading this information. The Marion. Star, however, clears up the mystery. It cays: "We can't con scientiously commend tho stock of those roerohanL who art sshsmod to advertise them. Goods of cheap and inferior quality aro not generally advertised. The shrewd and successful business man, who deals only in frtt cla$$ articles, is very apt to let the public know it. A merchant of this character always soils the cheapest goods in tho end." Tb.? National Danks in South Carolina have U,6G9,85 in fold; ?27L24 insilver, and 13,468,06 in goltichpcks.
