to the Radical party in the North, they do so at the
cost of every Hbeisl rote, both black and white, in
the State; and tide liberal vote includes four-fifths
of the freedmen. Is this course wise for them?
If, while they claim to be in favor of the Liberals,
they truckle to Radical views, then they are
false to the Radicals; and, if they are true to the
Radicals,.they are false to the Liberals.
The gist of what we are saying is this?It is time
for the anti-Nash party to sJicno their hands.
At a meeting of freedmen (to which Nash was
invited) held at Gadsden in Richland District,
"Resolutions were adopted declaring the determination
of the colored people there assembled to allow
no outside interference with their duties ascitirens
of South Carolina, and to select from among
W their former masters, with whose interests their
own are necessarily interwoven, the most able and
impartial men that they can f nd, to represent
them in law-making assemblies of the country."
This meeting was addressed by Capt Anderson,
formerly of the United States Army, and by others
not identified by birth with the citizens of this
State. , * , *
If the Anti-Nash party hold these views, they
are losing the whole strength of their party by not
arousing them promptly and distinctly. Their silence
now gives a presumption fatal to their private
claims. If, in the present attitude of affairs, they
withhold the avowal, the necessary inferenoe is that
they have something to expect for their fidelity to
the Radicals.

HIGHLY IMPORTANT ORDER.
A military stay law.
The following order, which explains itself, will,
we doubt not, give unqualified satisfaction to our
readers. The necessity for a similar measure has *
been patent from the ineffectual efforts made by ,
the General Assembly, on more than one occasion, ]
to stay the execution of judgments for debts, and <
there is every reason to believe that this intervent
tion of the military power will produce a feeling of j
profound satisfaction throughout the length and ,
breadth of the State: \
Headquarters, Second Military District, \
Charleston, S. C., April 11, 1867. J t
[General Orders, No. 10.] i
The general destitution prevailing among the {
population of this Military District cannot be relie- I
vea without affording means for the development 1
of their industrial resources. The nature and ex- ]
tent of the destitution demand extraordinary mca- c
sures. The people are borne down by a heavy bur- 1
den of debt; the crops of grain and garden produce ]
failed last year; many families have been deprived (
of shelter; many more need food and clothing; c
/ needful implements and auxiliaries of husbandry 1
7 are very scarce; the laboring population in numer- <
ous localities are threatened with starvation, unless 1
supplied with food by the Government of the Uni- ]
tea States; the inability of a large portion of the
people to pay taxes leaves the_ local authorities i
without adequate means of relief; and tne gravity
of the situation is increased bv the general aisposi- i
tion shown by creditors to enforce, upon an imjpov- ]
erished people, the immediate collection of all ]
claims.
To suffer this to go on without restraint or remedy
is to sacrifice the general good. The rights of
creditors shall be respected; but the appeal of
want and suffering must be heeded. Moved by
. these considerations, the following regulations arc
announced. They will continue in force, with such
W modifications as the occasion may require, until
the civil governments of the respective States shall
be established in accordance witn the requirements
of the Government of the United States. 1
The Commanding General earnestly desires and.i
confidently believes that the observance of these i
regulations, and the co-operation of all persons con- t
cerned in employing fairly and justly tne advanta- i
tages still remaining to them, will mitigate the dis- i
tress now existing: and that the avenues of industry,
enterprise and organization thus opened, will
contribute to the permanent welfare and future j
happiness of the people.
I. Imprisonment for debt Js prohibited, unless (
the defendant in execution shall be convicted of a s
fraudulent concealment or disposition of his proper- (
ty, with intent to hinder, delay and prevent the i

termination of such questions may be adopted. c

money, on causes of action arising between the e
19th ofDecember, 1860, and the 15tnof May. 1865, t
shall not be enforced by execution against the pro- n
perty or the person of the defendant. Proceedings fi
in such causes of action, now pending, shall be a
stayed; and no suit or process shall be hereafter in- o

v in his absence his agent or attorney, shall upon
oath, with corroborative testimony, allege and prove
that the defendant is removing, or intends fradulently
to remove his property bevond the territorial
jurisdiction of the Court The sale of real or 1
personal property by foreclosure of mortgage is i
likewise suspended for twelve calendar months, ex- j
cept in cases where the payment of interest money, t
accruing since the 15th day of May, 1865, shall not v
have been made before the day of sale. j.
IV. Judgments or decrees entered or enrolled, t
on causes of actions arising subsequent to the 15th a
of May, 1865, may be enforced by execution a- 1
gainst the property of the defendant; and in the \
application of the money arising under such executions
regard shall be had to the priority of liens, c
unless in cases where the good faith of any lien
shall be drawn in question. In such cases the usual
mode of proreeding adopted in North and
South Carolina, respectively, to determine that
question, shall be adopted.
V. All proceedings for the recovery of money
under contracts, whether under seal or by parole,
the consideration for which was the purchase of c
negroes, are suspended. Judgments or decrees s
entered or enrolled for such causes of action, shall 1
not be enforced. t
VI. All advances of moneys, subsistence, imple- c
ments and fertilizers, loaned, used, employed or re- 1;
|W quired f jr the purpose of aiding the agricultural r
pursuits of the people, shall be protected. And j
the existing laws which have provided the most ef- c
ficient remedies in such cases for the lender, will $
be supported and enforced. Wages fa* labor per- t
formed in the production of the crop shall be a lien t
on the crop, and be enforced by the like remedies 1
provided to secure advances of money and other 1
means for the cultivation of the soil. i

by order of any court, there shall be reserved out

parent or parents and child or children. In other 1
cases, the exemption shall extend only to clothing, 1
implements of trade or other employment usually <
followed by the defendant, of the value of one hun- t
dred dollars. The exemption hereby made shall s
Lnnt be waived or defeated by the act of defendant ^
The exempted property of the defendant shall be i
ascertained by the Sheriff, or other officer enfor- <
cing the execution, who shall specifically describe j
the same and make a report thereof in each case
to the court. i
VIII. The currency of the United States, declar- i
ed by the Congress of the United States to be a
legal tender in the payment of all debts, dues and
demands, shall be so recognized inNorthand South
Carolina. And all cases in which the same shall ]
be tendered in payment, and refused by any public 1
officer, will be at once reported to these Headquarters,
or to the Commanding Officer of the Post i
within which such officer resides. (
IX. Property of an absent debtor, or one charg- i
ed as such, without fraud, whether consisting of
money advanced for the purposes of agriculture,
or appliances for the cultivation of the soil, shall
not be taken under the process known as "Foreign
Attachment;" but the lien created by any
existing law shall not be disturbed, nor shall the
possession or the use of the same be in anywise interfered
with, except in the execution of a judgment
or final decree, in cases where they are authorized
to be enforced.
X. In suits brought to recover ordinary debts,
known as actions ex contractu, bail as heretofore

of property, and other cases known as ac
L
tions ex delicto, bail as heretofore authorized may
be demanded, and taken. The prohibition of bail
in cases ex contractu, shall not extend to parties
about to leave the State; but the fact of intention
must be clearly established by proof.
XL In criminal and other proceedings, the usual
recognizances shall be required and taken by the
proper civil officers heretofore authorized by law to

made to any magistrate or other person authorized
by law to issue a warrant for breach of the

without requiring him to give security on such recognizance.
XII. The practice of carrying deadly weapons,
except by officers and soldiers in the military service
of the United States, is prohibited. The concealment
of such weapons on the person will be
deemed an aggravation of the offence. A violation
of this order wiU render the offender amenable to
trial and punishment by military commission.?
Whenever wounding or killing shall result from the
use of such weapons, proof that the party carried
or concealed a deadly weapon, shall be deemed evidence
of a felonious intent to take the life of the
injured person.

8TATE TAXES. J
The following circular explains itself: ,
Headquarters Second Military District,
Charleston, S. C., April 12,1867.
In reply to several communications addressed to
:hese Headquarters, in reference to the proceedings
of the civil authorities of South Carolina in <
;he collection of taxes, the following letter of instruction
from His Excellency, the Governor, to the
Comptroller-General, is published for the informa- <
ion of all concerned: <
Executive Department South Carolina,
Columbia, 19th Febjuaiy, 1867. i
Hon. S. L. Leapliart, Comptroller-General:
Sir?Upon conference with several of the Tax
Collectors, as well as the Attorney-General, I am
atisfied that the enforcements of the Acts of the 1
Jeneral Assembly, according to their technical .
mport, will be very oppressive to the poqr who are J
nabll* lit 'fWJ^llIeir ftlve no"pft)l>JfLy7 1
nd who, in such contingency, are required to be 1
rrested and confined in jail until they do pay the *
xecution; and it will impose a ruinous burthen on '
he State to pay for dieting all who may be arrest- 1
d. When once placed in jail, there is no power
o release the delinquent until the Legislature t
leets. In the present straightened condition of the ,
nances of the State it must be avoided, and you i
re hereby directed to issue a notice to the Sheriffs |
f the several Districts, instructing them not to arest
and put in iail any delinquent on a tax execu- j
ion, unless such Sheriff, upon inquiry, shall be ^
atisfied that lie or she is fraudulently concealing
iroperty, or withholding money belonging tqJiim '
r her; and that in every case where he believes
he delinquent is unable, for want of means, to pay,
l,o+ fVio ovfl^ntinn chill Kp en nndnrend nnn nn t
iroceedings further taken upon it.
I have the honor to be,
Very respectfully, yours, &c..
JAMES L. OllR, Governor.
The instructions of the Governor will be caretply
observed by Sheriffs and all other officers. Sherffs
or other officers charged with the execution of
>rocess for the collection of taxes, will be required
o report to the commanding officer of the Post in
vhicn their duties are performed, the names of all
larties imprisoned for the non-payment of taxes,
he amount of tax due, and the amount of costs
md fees, together with the evidence showing "that
le or she is fraudulently concealing property or
mhholding money belonging to him or her."
Post Commanders will see that the requirements
if this Circular are observed.

FEAT IN ORATORY.
A membenof the Legislative Assembly of Vanouver's
Island spoke in that House recently for
eventeen hours, in order to prevent a bill of much
ocal interest from passing before the close of a paricular
day, which had been appointed as the limit
if the time for making certain payments.* The
ast twenty four-hours of the twelve-month alone
emained when this gentleman, Mr. M'Clure, be;an
his speech. The Examiner says: "Every
:ffort was made by the majority to put him down
md tire him out. With a merciless unanimity,
hey refused to allow him to lean against the table,
o put his foot upon a chair for a moment, to reieve
himself from the irksomeness of his position
)y resting his hand upon anything, or to speak,
n short, in any other than a rigidly erect and unsupported
attitude.
"During the whole of the time, they relieved <
;ach other at intervals, going out and procuring '
such refreshments as they needed, and' always :
eaving a quorum in the house. When Mr. McDlure
sank exhausted into his seat, Mr. De Comost
ose, and for the remaining seven hours of the 1
wenty-four talked against time. On rising, amidst
he groans and hisses of the disgusted and infuriited
majority, he exclaimed with more force than
efiuement, that it was useless for honorable members
to evince their malice in that matter, for he
lad got up with the determination to talk, if nesessary,
'until the angel Gabriel sounded the last

when the clock struck twelve, the worn and weared
champion of honesty looked round with pard>nable

No recusant Democrat in Washington would
now dare to go on such a "filibustering expedition."
FARMING OPERATIONS.
The favorable omens of a good fanning season
haw put the farmers to work with a hearty good
will. The ill-wind, which has so long blown over
us in political affairs, has for the nonce discouraged
our people, yet a few days of bright sunshine
dissipates their melancholy, and with cheerful faces
they take up "the shovel and the hoe," to provide
for the inner man.
Necessity is upon us. Work, field work, is absolutely
necessary for our wants, but it serves more
than one purpose. The payment of debts, provision
tor our families, and the means of recuperation
demand it, yet the moral and social interests
of society find no greater help than from the steady,
invigorating and quiet labors of the field,
In this section, we are glad to say, every effort
will be made for the production of a good crop of
cotton and corn. We are really glad to find that
some of our town men have waked up from the languor
and ennui of city life, and are pushing the
plough vigorously. Cotton, however, forms the
chief article of production, and we are glad to believe
that the indications are decidedly promising
for a good crop. To all, then, we say, "speed the
plough."?Raleigh Sentinel
Men Wanted.?The great want of this age is
men. Men who are not for sale. Men who are
honest, sound from centre to circumference, true to
the heart's core. Men who will condemn wrong
in friend or foe, in themselves as well as in others.
Men whose consciences are steady as the needle to
the pole. Men who will stand for the right, if the
heavens totter and the earth reels. Men wno can
tell the truth and look the world and the devil
right in the eye. Men that neither brag nor run.
Men that neither flag nor flinch. Men who can
have courage without whistling for it, and joy
without shouting to bring it Men in whom the
current of everlasting life runs still, and deep, and
strong. Men too large for sectarian limits, and too
strong for sectarian bands. Men who do not strive,
nor ciy, nor cause their voices to be heard in the
streets, but who will not fall nor be discouraged,
till judgment be set in earth. Men who know
their messaee and tell it Men who know their
place and fill it. Men who know their own business.
Men who will not lie. Men who are not too
lazy to work, nor too proud to be poor. Men who
are willing to eat what they have earned, and wear
what they have paid for.
Improved Farming Implements.?The New
York Evening Fast, remarking on the great improvement
recently made in farming implements
and maehinerv. tnves some observations made in
the West by way of illustration. A corn field containing
one hundred and sixty acres was plowed,
planted, and cultivated, without subjecting the farmer
to the trouble of going on foot at xuL The
ground wap prepared by the use of a rotary spader,
on which the operator rode; was planted by a twohorse
machine, the driver seated upon a box; when
hoeing time came, a cultivator performed the operation
without involving the necessity of pedestrian
exercise. When the corn is ripe, it is cut and laid
in rows by a two-horse machine?thus completing
the cycle of machine corn-raising. On the farm of
which this corn-field formed a part, there was a
fiejfl of timothy comprising seven hundred acres.
It is the improved farm machinery which has rendered
such extensive farming operations possible
and profitable at the same time. ,
War in Europe.?The prospect of a war between
France and Prussia, growing out of the
purposes of France to strengthen her eastern border,
has caused some alarm in Europe, and is operating
upon the gold and cotton market Every
Continental power is enlarging its war material,
and the disturbances between Turkey and Greece,
together with the movements of Prussia, look to a
very general collision of arms in Europe. The financial
condition of the continent is, however, unfavorable
to war, which fact may yet avert the calamity.
The real status of European affairs is a matter of
much interest to American planters. The price of
cotton would be seriously affected by a war in Europe,
while the demand for breadstuffs, in lhat
event, would augment the price of wheat and corn.
As yet the question of an early resort to arms
hangs in doubt, though the general aspect is threatening.?RaJxegh
Sentinel
WZ8* According to the Washington correspondent
of the Boston Courier, Butler is more persecuted
out of the House than in it All sorts of jokes
respecting him are scribbled on the walls of hotels
and public buildings. He boarded at the Kirk
wood House, ?nd when that establishment was
closed by a landlord's creditors, a story was started
that the hotel was shut up because one of the
boarders had stolen all the spoons. After a week
of horribly rainy weather, somebody wrote on the
wall at Willard s Hotel: "What makes the clouds
so black this week? Answer.?Because Butler
has stolen their silver lining."
A Model Drug House.?Messrs. Goodrich,
WlNEMAN & Co., No. 153 Meeting-street, are successors
to John Ashhurst & Co., who did the
Largest Drug Business South previous to the war.
They have recently opened with an immense stock
of Genuine Imported Medicines, which they offer
on favorable terms. These gentlemen have had
the experience of a quarter of a century and ought
to know the wants or the Southern trade.
The Popular vote in Georgia.?We find the
following in one of our Georgia exchanges: "As
some of our readers may be curious to know the
probable vote of the State of Georgia since the
blacks have been enfranchised, we state fc^heir
vhite poll of 89,909, and a black poll of 65,909,
ihowing a total poll of 158,818. Of these about
15,000 are disfranchised for participating in the
ebellion."
Prices Falllng.?Several lots of corn were sold
it an estate sale in this county, last week, at from
>4 to 59 cents per bushel, on six months credit.
iVe also learn that large quantities of corn arc now
>eing held throughout the country which will be
jut upon the market as soon as the prospects for
:he present year can be ascertained, and then, no
loubt, the price will go down, if the prospect be
;ood, to 40 or 50 cents per bushel.?Lincoln [N.
C.) Courier.
Fruit Crop.?We are glad to learn from all
Siarters, that the prospect at present is, that we
all have the best fruit crops, the present year,
hat we have had for many years, It is not too
ate for disaster, yet the present character of the
seasons justifies tne hope that fruit will be abundint.

CHARLESTON, April 12.?Cotton.?1The market
here for the staple has been of a declining
character in consequence of the steadily receding
rates at Liverpool, and although the opening price
of Middling Upland, say 27 cents $ lb., was maintained
until Tuesday, the quotations on that day
fell off a half to ono cent lb.. Middling Upland
being quoted at 26 to 28J cents $ lb., and yesterday
the market closed with an easier feeling, Middling :
Upland being quoted at 26 cents. The business of
the week has been marked by some activity, considering
the light stock, ana buyers, in most instances,
have purchased readily at quotations most .
of the staple placed on the market, Dut at tho close
rumors of a Europen war had a depressing effect.
We offer the following report of the daily transactions
at this point in the article for the past week: .
On Friday, April 5th, factors were offering but
a light supply or Cotton, which, with the unsettled condition
of prices, limited tho transactions of the
day to about 100 boles, which, in most instances,
were sold on the basis of 27 cents $ ft. for Middling
Cotton.
On Saturday, there was only a light enquiry, (
which, with a small stock on sole, confined the ,
business of the day to 103 bales, prices being about
the same as the day before.
On Monday there was a good demand; sales 450 '
bales, the market closing somewhat easier under
declining news from Liverpool* The quotations ,
were: Ordinary 25, Low Middling 27 to 26), Mid- I
dling 27 cents ft.
On Tuesday, with a declining market, prices
fell a J to 1 cent $ lb. Sales 300 bales^ at the follow
ingquotations: Ordinary24to24*,juowMiddling
25 to 251, Middling 26 to 234 cents $ lb.
On Wednesday there was an active demand at
the prices of the day before?sales 520 bales?Middling
Cotton selling at 26 to 261 cents $ lb.
