oppressive man. but not so with a dangerous corporation. I know, sir. that the hanks have a power over every man in the community?that few ever escape their hostility. Thrv reach all, either individually or through friends. It is useless to disguise the truth while we have banks, we have a privilcdged class, and the effect upon the community is to make the many live and labor for the few. Sir, the rate of interest they acquire is enormous when we look upon their issues.? But of that hereafter. If the corporation itself is so objectionable, this formation of its capital is more so, for that only goes to show, that notwithstanding the great privileges they enjoy, they never begin to discbarge their own legal and moral obligations to the community by establishing themselves, as individuals would be compelled to do. 2. The maimer in which captil is formed.? Our own acts furuish the examples. A bank is established by legislative enactment, and commissioners appointed to receive subscriptions: the ' shares are $25 each, and five instalments are required to be paid of five dollars each, iu specie paying bank bills, aud after the first instalment ; shall be paid, the bank shall go into operation ; I but of this fund, a bankinghouse. engravings, &c., j are purchased, aud with the residue it begins to i discount notes and circulate paper. Customers I then begin to deposit, and on this fund they extend their line of discount?the time arrives for | paying the remaining instalments, and a call is j made on the stockholders?some borrow from the bank on pledge of their stock, some on their notes endorsed, some pay in real money, but generally they pay in the notes of the bank itself or other banks of the city. This is the way in which the $1,000,000 of capital is paid up. All pap*r, all credit, no cash, and this monster to feed from the vitals of the community, living only by its toler- | ance, and liable to be closed up at any momeni for want of specie, takes its place upon the privileged orders of the laud. This institution, then, liaTingits capital paid up in its own bills and the bills of other banks, proceeds to invest its capital to the best interest of the stockholders. State or city stocks, or the stocks of other banks, are purchased with one-half of the capital, upon which they receive the same interest as any individual would receive ; and with the residue they enter into the field and commence banking, not upon $1,000,000, which they said the necssity of the community required. The community are only secondary. The watch-word is 10 percent, dividends?no matter how much more. We should never forgot, "that money is the root of all evil." A Valuable Medicine.?During the present week, no less than six of our friends, who have been induced to try Professor De Gbath's Electric Oil for rheumatism, in consequence of having seen this preparation advertised in our columns, have called upon us to state the result of their experiments. These persons assure us that their rheumatic pains have been entirely cured by a few applications of Do Grath's " Electric Oil," and they recommend its use to all who are afflicted with any of the diseases which it is designed to cure.?Prov. Advertiser.?It can be had of the agents here. See advertisement in another column. Columbia Market. December 8, 1857. The week ending on the 5th instant was a very unfavorable one for the sale of cotton. The news from Liverpool which came to hand on Wednesday put prices down a full cent on the low and middling grades, and ^c. on the better qualities. The sales of the week foot up about 300 bales, at 9J ? 9Ac. Yesterday there was but little done, and the market is still laboring under a heavy depression, and 9 ? 9A seems to be the offering prices. In the grain and provision market we have no material change to notice, and therefore we continue to quote corn 70 ? 75. No oats offering. The flour market has been quiet but steady and consequently we continue to quote $5.50? $6 for common to superfine brands ; extra family flour $6.75 pi bbl. No change in the price of fodder. We still quote 90c. ? $1 V lOOlbs. Married?On Tuesday, 1st instant, by Rev. J. D. Hall, Mr. JOHN" L. WATSON, of York District, S.

THE PRESENT YEAR is drawing to a close, and with it ends the THIRD VOLUME of the YORKVILLE ENQUIRER. So far, its career has been prosperous, and every effort trill be made to make it still more deserving of patronage in the future. It shall be our endeavor to commend it to the intelligent of all classes, by making it the medium of sums mmaitos ; To the moral portion of the community by instilling tiie most elevated sentiments; to the philanthropic by advocating well-matured measures of social or economical reform; to the Humorous by the infusion of SELECT WIT; and to the patriotic, by making every possible effort to advance the political and material ijfsiasm o? ?hb mm, and to give permanency to her civilization, and new life and energy to her kindling genius. A NEW FEATURE FOR THE FOURTH VOLUME, will be SKETCHES of Revolutionary Characters and INCIDENTS, in this and neighboring disrricts. Many of our readers are descendants of ti e heroes, whose noble deeds and dauntless bravery we would chronicle, and to them, such sketches will have a personal interest. We have invited all who possess information of this kind to contribute it, and we hope they will do so without delay. The Agricultural Interests )f the State will receive more special attention :ban we have yet devoted to it. Regarding farmng as the meaus of producing at the South, it tssumes a paramount importance, and an effort is leing made to enlist the services of practical farners, and induce them to give the beneficial results of their experience. SEE MSSSI mm, foreign and Domestic, shall be carefully culled ind condensed, and on the plan of "MERE-MENriON," we will give multum in parvo. As soon is trade begins to revive, we will give weekly, a nil report of the CURRENT PRICES. Owing to he difficulty of getting a Reporter, as well as the itagnation in business, we have been somewhat emiss in this for a few weeks, but we will make jermanent arrangements for 1858. TEMPERANCE Vill still continue, among other social blessings, o be ndvocated. Our own District is evidence of ts blessings, and we can say boldly, that its mor.1 tone has improved with the progress of the temperance came. Our Charleston Correspondent, "Magnolia," will ontinue his racy sketches of busy life in our Meropolis. QSIGIIAS eOraiBTOIOIS, If there is one thing in which we may justly akc pride, it is in the talented corps of Coatribitors, who, during the past year, have aided us n giving tone and interest to the columns of the Inquirer.
