ding tl?e operation of the Act of 1840, and relicv- ; i
ing the Banks of the payment of fire per cent, t
to the State, was a most egregious blonder, high- j f
ly mischievous in its tendency and effects, and ; c
in 9hort, a stupenduous fraud npon the Common- | i
wealth of Sonth Carolina. I use strong lan- j t
guage, for I foel the troth of what T say, and ! t
I am only surprised at the pertinacity of some of p
those who advocated, or voted for the measure, in u
stubbornly adhering to their first position, when I
subsequent developments can not but have convin- ii
ced any rational mind, that it was an unmitigated
error on the part of the Legislature. I accord to s
"the Delegation who voted for the relief" of the s
Bhnks, all the sincerity of purpose they would fa
claim to themselves in supporting the Bill; v
meekly asking that the same allowanoe may be t
meted ont to the Delegation who did not vote for o
the measure. I did not believe then that the j s
measure was a wise end politic one, and now I f
can say with truth, T know it.
Perhaps, to plaoe before you, the issue in some of t
its important aspects, as presented for the deci- f
sion of the Legislature, and upon which resulted f
the enactment before referred to, it might be pro- o
per to say something of the laws of Sonth Caroli- t
na touching the suspension of specie payment by a
the Banks; and to give a short history of the cir- f
cnmstances by which the Legislature was probably J
influenced to its final aotion. r
Before the enactment of the law of 1840, the il
penalty incurred by the Banks for a refusal to redeem
their notes with coin, was a forfeiture of
tb?ir charters; and consequently, they were compelled
to wind up their affairs and cease to do a
banking business. This appearing to the Legislature
to be a severe penalty, and likely to result
in no great good to the;community if enforced, a lighter
penalty for such suspension was devised
is 1840;-not with a view to punish the Banks for
dereliction of duty, as has been supposed, but =
for the wise purpose of preventing Suspension if
possible. By the second seotion of the Act of
1840, all Banks wbioh refused to redeem their
bills with coin, were made liable to pay monthly D
* in ?in R ??? 6
IBM lilt) puuuc innuiurjr, ill uic ?? vi w jin
owl per annum, on all their notes in circulation
daring the period of suspension, and the Comp- t(
trailer General required to see to the collection, ^
&o. At the opening of the last Legislature, the ^
country was, and had been suffering from a serere ^
financial crisis, superinduced in a great degree, if
not altogether, by a reckless expansion of issues
on the part ofthe Banks for a year or two preceding,
followed by a sudden contraction a few months y
previous. Eleven Banks in this State had sus- c
pended; loud protestations were uttered against &
their abases and corruptions; friends and foes i
of the Banks united in censnring the extravagant
speculations and illicit traffic in which they had iudnlged,
and a number of Bills and Resolutions
were introduced looking to a correction of the ex- ^
isting evils and to wholesome restrictions upon the
banking system. At the same time, however, ^
counter measures were urged by the friends of the
Banks, asking a suspension of the Act of 1840 requiring
the collection of 5 per cent of the suspended
Banks, and alleging that it was a measure
of relief to the country. Thus the issue was &
made. In the progress of the discussion which 1*
followed, the Banks and their friends (I may say a
the Banks, for the House, was crowded by Presi- <1
dents, Cashiers, Ac., daring the discussion) prom- 'c
ised faithfully that they, if relieved of the payment
of the 6 per oent., could and would put out
a sufficiency of their notes, to meet the pecnnia- f,
ry necessities of the country?would furnish the q
necessary capital to purchase the last orop ; and g
resume specie payment in three or four months?
at the same time indicating their very hostile pur- j
pose of withholding their paper if denied the proposed
relief. This sophism, for the time, prevailed
over wiser counsel; many honest members were
cheated and overreached by these specious pre- T
tences, and thus the Banks succeeded in driviDg a
bargain in the legislative Halls of South Carolina, J?
totally eclipsing tne most magmnceni anave, ever
known in the annals of Wall street brokerage.
It most be admitted, that the memorials of the
Banks, which covered the tables of the members,
snpplioating relief from the Act of 1840 ; the
lood asservations of the friends of the Banks that
they could not survive the rigid enforcement of L
this law, accompanied by the strongest assurances N
that, if relieved of its operation, they would sup- P
ply the capital for the purchase of thecotton crop, P
and after all, resume specie payment in 8 or 4 8
months; were well calculated to influence honest a
and unsuspecting gentlemen to vote for the meas- 11
are sought. But notwithstanding the seeming sincerity,
with which these complaints and promises
were made ; it could not but strike the minds of
e
some that they were hollow, inconsistent, and in- g
sincere. How could the Banks have performed ^
these impossible undertakings ? If they could ^
not redeem their paper when they had in circnla- .
tion only seven dollars to one of coin in their
vaults, how could they redeem when they had in- ^
creased their circulation ten, to one ? It strikes j
me that a very slight acquaintance with "Pike"
would have served to detect the faithlesness of
such pretensions. It is true, if the Banks had, ^
after the passage of the .Bill discounted freely, 0
and increased their circulation as they had prom- li
ised, it might have operated as a temporary relief *
to a portion of the State; and it would have pal- ?
liated their perfidy in failing, up to this time, to a
resume specie payment. * Instead of this, however, *
they have in utter contempt of all their sacred *
oledges and high obligations to the State and people,
neither increased their circulation nor resumed
payment in specie. On the contrary, they 6
have designedly contracted their issues, and there- 1
by caused a greater scarcity of money than exist- (
ed before; and more than all, to make a deserved f
mockery of the Legislative drama of last Winter, (
they have declared dividends as high as 8 per cent
This brings me to notice another extravagant
and unphilosophical conclusion of the writer.?
He says, "We find our country relieved beyond i
the most sanguine expectations." Where'are the ^
* evidences of this relief, beyond expectation ? Did ^
it appear to him from the number of cases return jj
ed to the last Court of Common Pleas, for York t
District ? With perhaps one exception?two or *
three years back?a greater number of suits has (
not been instituted at one term in the past fifteen {
years. Has any one ever seen this section of *
country laboring under so great a monetary pres- *
sure, with their granaries so well filled from the c
abundant yield of the last year's crop, and with a i
fair average crop of cotton ? He must look upon (
the financial condition of the country around him
through a greater magnifying lens than any of his i
neighbors, otherwise that happy prosperity which 1
prevails in the favored Districts of York and Chester,
in which so many faithless debtors are behol- ^
den to the humanity of the Sheriffs' would cer- .
jainly greet the delighted vision of others. Bnt '
how can it be said that the country has been re
lieved by the action of the Legislature 1 It iB at j
once evident that relief could be rendered, only j
by increased discounts and loans by the Banks, j
Bnt they have decreased their loans and discounts.
It is clear then, that the conclusion, that relief
has been afforded to the country by suspending the 1
act of 1840, is nothing short of a wild infatuation, j
"the baseless-fabric of a vision." j
To sum up the matter, the Legislature at its J
last session, having in full view the facts that the <
Banks had grossly perverted the objeots of their |
charters?had violated their sacred obligations to ;
the State, and bad acted with vile perfidy to- '
wards her citizens?withheld from the people's |
treasury, the amounts justly due tbaj^from the (
Banks, and which should have beta uaeitMa the
eduction of their tales, and permitted the Banks
o pocket it as a reward fur their violation of (rood
aith and tacred trusts ; and this too as a measure
if relief to the people 1 In my humble judgment, j
t was unwise Legislation. Are these demonstra- j
ions of a money power controlling the council of j
he State, not calculated to awaken within ?3 ap- j
irehensions of still greater encroachments and ;
isurpations from that source in future ? The
SaDks may become as strong as the Government
tself. ?
I hare not said all I desired to a&y on this
ubject, which has become one of so great moaent
to the interests of the oonntry. I mast.
iowever, forbear for the present, and postpone
that I desizri still to do in the way of criticising
he features and provisions, as well as the policy
f the notable act of 1857, entitled "an act for the
nspension of certain sections of certain acts, and
or other purposes."
I am before yon again, my fellow citizens, at
he solicitations of many persons, as a candidate
or a seat in the next Legislature. 1 feel grateful
or the confidence you have heretofore reposed in
ae, and humbly trust that you have had no cause
o regard the same as having been misplaced or
bused. To represent more than two thousand
reemen of South Carolina is no idle boast. 8honld

eflex of yours, I will be proud to represent you;

Cotton.?The week closing onSuturday, the 16th

rhis was partly on account of the small supply offering,

ilso the little disposition evinced on the part of
myers to operate. From the small amount offerng,
the transactions of the week have been conined
to about 300 bales; and although the questions

of allowance and somewhat nominal, still we

HOWARD ASSOCIATION. !
PHILADELPHIA. * I
A Benevolent Institution established by special Endowment
for the Relief of the Sick and Distressed,
afflicted with Virulent '
and Epidemic Diseases.
THE HOWARD ASSOCIATION, in view of the \
awful destruction of haman life, caused bv
Sexual disease, and the deceptions practiced upon
the unfortaate victims of each diseases by Quacks,
several years ago directed their Consulting Surgeon,
as a CHARITABLE ACT worthy of their
name, to open a Dispensary for the treatment of
this class of disease, in all their forms, and to
give MEDICAL ADVICE GRATIS to all who apply
by letter, with a description of their condition,
(age, oconpation, habits of life, Ac.) and in cases
of extreme poverty, to FURNISH MEDICINES
FREE OF CHARGE. It is needless to add that
the Association commands the highest Medical
skill of the age, and will furnish the most modern
treatment.
The Directors of the Association, in their Annual
Report upon the treatment of Sexual Diseases,
for the year ending January let, 1868, express the
highest satisfaction with the success which has
attended the labors of the Consulting Surgeon in
the cure of Spermatorrhoea, Seminal Weakness,
Impotence, Gonorrhoe, Gleet, Syphilis, the vice of
Onanism or Self-abuse, Ac., and order a continuance
of the same plan for the ensuing year.
The Directors, on a review of the past, feel assurred
that their labors in this sphere of benevolent
effort have been of great benefit to the afflioted,
especially to the young, and they have resolved
to devote themselves, with renewed real, to
this very important and much despised cause.
An admirable Report on Spermatorrhoea, or
Seminal Weakness, the vice of Onanism, Masturbation.
or Self-abast, and other diseases of the
sexual organs, by the Consulting 8urgeon, will be
sent by mail (in a sealed envelope) FREE OF

SOMETHING NEW IN YORK I
TILTON'S PATENT
IMPROVEMENTTIE VIOLIN!
UNTIL within a few years, there has been no
change in the VIOLIN. The oldest instruments
now in use were made about the year 1660,
at Cremona, in Italy. Musicians have long believed,
that to possess perfection of tone, a VIOLIN
must have age; but this belief has of late
been agreeably changed, even in regard to the
Cremona; by nsing the new patent improvement.
The chief object of TILTON'8 PATENT, is to
obtain a tone at once clear and full, mellow and
round, sweet and powerful. These VIOL1N8 are
, for sale at the JEWELRY 8TORE occupied by
