The prominent position whioh Mr. D .
Wratt Aikcn hnlda in the agricultural
societies of the State entitles him tobe
regarded as their representative, and
gives to hie views an importance which
they might not otherwise possess. S >
long aa he d|?e>oor*ea on topics connec
ted with the interest to which he has
devoted his lahors. we confeas n?r ig no
ranee and listen aa to one speaking with
authority, bit when, exceeding those
limits, he lectures an finance and proau
gee a code of morals for his constituents
we are at liberty to question his ability,
and dispute his instruction, although we
never held a pi ugh or handled a
he.
We do not prr.pr.i? |.i disc its Mr.
Aiken's peculiar views of finance a?
expressed in his Cokcabury letter. We
would only suggest tu him to inform
himself npon a subject before he ventures
to write un-vi it ^.-i'V //1!. for th* ? U
hardly a statement in It's lelt?r which s
not an error, hardly a condusi?n which
is not illrogically d ana fr?.?* his state
ments. We hate nit time to rericW
thea all hot one example nlle*.
Speaking of the circulation of the Na
tional Danks he says it .is I'gaily rest net
ted, "but "who ever examin s Co mam
whether thoy issa- one hundred thou
sand dollars ur one "million ?" Is it
passible that Mr. Aikcn does not know
that ?v?ry bill whioh a National Bank
isMie* is furnished to it firm* Washing
ton, is signed by the Treasury officials
at Washington, sad that the amount
of these bills is rw^aUtol by th - amount
of bonds deposited* in the Utited States
Treasury by the Ifenmf An I did it
never occur to Mr. Aikea that if His
statement aas correct, and the isvue of
bills was unrestricted that not one of
the suspension he complains of would
haro occured? The banks suspended
because thsy had no kills and could get
none. Mr. Aiken's statements and his
conclusive!, like the famous Kilkenny
cats cat each other np.
It seems als-? to Kar? entirely escaped
Mr. Aiksn'sattentioa that the most
extensive and disastrous Gfnaneial revul
sions hare occured when there were no
national banks, when ..circulation was
based on gold and silver, and when there
was, practically, no limit to the pewcr ef
issuing bill*. Hut, as we said befwro,
the financial riews of Mr. Aiken, how
ever original; do not interest us, that
which does excite in a i feeling of
alarm?and hs will paadoo us for sayicfr
a feeling also of indignation?is lite
new ends of morals which he peeks to
instill into the planters ef ths State. It
is but justiee to Mr. Aikcn to nay that
acquit aim of all intention to do Wrong;
but the errors ef ?reo good) men often
produce iooalcnlable mischief. Wo are
willing to believe that Mr. Aikea does
not pieeeirs th* logical consequence of
his own teaching; hut, diaguise it from
himself as he may, his remedy fer .tho
eril begins and ends in sheer dishons*
ty. If his instructions were reduced to
practice, the agricultural interest of the
State would be irretrievably landed in
bankruptcy, moral and material* This
we do not state this too strongly let ?j
examine the Instruction. What is th*
ad rice, whioh Mr. Alke* given to tho
planters? To hold, their cotton.
Admirable adrioo if th* planter was
froe of debt, and hi* cotton free of lien,
but the planter ie indebted to the factor
for the very money which raised the !
crop, and the factor is indebted to the
bank for the money loaned to the plan
tor, and has put up, with the bunk, hie
collaterals to raise the money advanced.
The factor owes the hunk and the plan*
tor owes the factor, nod has the cotton
to pay the debt. Now what is common
law and common honesty ? Why, clear
ly, that the pi inter ahew^i send his cot
tor, forward to pay the debt when it be
comes due. Y\ hat ia the advice which
Mr. Aikeo gives? To hold it, snd
"fo ratal the execution ofilt\e lien by any
meant at hand." 'We giro it in his awn
word*; for nothing leas can render sj
shocking a proposition credible. The
factor, asking only that the planter
should perform what he has promised, is
according to Mr. Aikeo, "a Shy "look
who knows no one but hiaself," but th e
planter, according to Mr. Aiken, is to
be et liberty to break his promise.
Whom would the planter, in sneh case,
consider but himselff Does he not do
that eery thing which Mr. Aiken so
indignantly condemns in Jay Cooke &
Co.?suspend, "with their poiLsts
Tul! t*
Moral laws arc general in their pplica
tiou ; there is nothing which exempts a
planter from their influence, or renders
that, innocent in him, which would be
culpable in a merchant. Yet Mr
Aiken a advice is, that the planter, with
the means of payment in his hands,
should break his promise and "resist by
any means at hand"?which of course
meane violence?"the execution of the
lien/' Faith is to be broken, the law
defied, violence resorted to, and the
I whole framework of society, which rests
on Law *nd Justice, rent and shattered
as by a tempest, and for what 7 To
enable a planter to avoid the payment of
' is just debt. We have too high a
respect for the intelligence and charac
ter of the planten ef this State to
believe it possible that they couid be
influenced by counsels so weak and
vi ctone.
It is a little carious that Mr. Aiken
seems never to have considered that if
hit remedy wss possible, and was ap
plied, the only result would be first to
rnin the factor and then the planter. The
factor would be protested b* the bank,
and his collaterals sold out j the planter ,
w?uld eventually have to pay his debt,
and we fancy would find himself at a loea j
to raise the advance for the next crop. |
Bot it ie a waste of time seriously to
criticise a remedy so utterly impractic
able, which begins ia bed faith, end* in
tiolowce, and oan have hat one result,
the utter ruin of every ooo affected by
it.
To the extent of his ability and in
fl- ence Mr. Aiken has made mischief.
He has endeavored to arrary one inter
eat apainst another, when a cordial un
ion and harmony is essential to the pre
servation of each and the prosperity of
the State. At a critical period, when
confidence is needed, he has sought to
sow distrust and excite suspicioa. And
the means suggested are as objectionable
aa the end. We are all mutually and
reciprocally dependent, end arc bound
to each other for the observance of the
purest good faith. Whoever, by, teach
ing or example, breaks down our rever
ence for honor and honesty, or tempts
ns, however subtly, to evade the oblige
tions they impose, merits the prompt re
bnke of all who have at heart the char
acter and future of the State. We have
lost much, but we have not yet had to
blush for the lasa.
All the evils of which Mr. Aiken
complains arise from the planter's want
of capital. The true remedy, theo, is
not to ndd to the want of capital the
Want of credit, but, by punctuality and
economy, to increase both. Thus, in
truth, will the planter be independent;
free to hold or sell as judgment dictates.
It is the position he ought to occupy,
and which we hope ho will soon reach,
for with his prosperity the interests of
all are indissolubly connected j but, to
be durable and benficial, it must be the
result of his own honest efforts, and not
the fruit of injustice to others?-Wio &

In the Couet or General Sessions,
Fall Term, Oct. 10,1873.
To the Hon. R. F. Graham :
The Grand Jury of she County re
spectfully present ; thai ,
1. They find all the Public Buildings
in good repair, and hare no recommen
dation to make on this subject, exempt
that the pickets on the Court Heuse
fence should be secured by straps.
2. That all the County Offices to
whioh they got access arc well kept.
The Treasurers Office was locked up,
and be and bis Clerk both out of town,
but they find front tha Offices of the
County Commissioners snd the School
Commissioner, that he has neglected to
make the monthly returns required by
the 12?h Sec. chsp. 13 of the Kcvissd
Statute?, snd the 6th Sec. of the Act
concerning School Fundc. Many com
plaints were also made about his failing
to pay School Orders, because not in
funds. They investigated one esie to
see if it wss not mere clamor, and
found that the Treasurer in tho siuglc
return made to the School Commission
er, admits having, fur the Township of
BranchvHIe 9530. On this the School
Commissioner snys he has countersignrd
orders for only 8-139.83, and he identi
fied as ons of the orders included in the
?439.83 ono produced by Mr. B. T.
Smoke, who held it for collection, and
says it was presented and dishonored on
th* plea of no funds.
The Jury had their attention drawn
to the fact that the County Commission
ers had disallowed the chsrges of Trial
Justices for more than one recognizance
in each case, and the County Commis
sioners desired an expression from the
Jury of their view. The Jury referred
the matter to the Special Solicitor, who
had been ordered by the Judge to assist
them. He sdvised them tbat there was
no law to restrict the charge to one
recognizance is each ease, but in their
opinion there should be one, and they
desire to see some restriction enacted.
4. Tbcy lastly present that the Trial
Justices throughout this County nre
Tory remiss in neglecting to enforce
what is commonly called tho Tuppor
' Law, as they are required to do by the
16th Section of the 80th chapter of the
Revised Statntcs.
