tauce of the invention, however, consists in
the fact that by its cheapness and simplicity
it may be introduced into common use, the
natural result of which will be to transfer the
whole work of cotton spinning from manufactories
to the cotton fields, thus effecting a
great saving in the cost of packing aud transportation,
and in other expenses.
THE AMENDED MNKRUPT LAW.
The following summary embraces all the
important changes in the bankrupt law as
amended by the last Congress:
The intent of the first section is to regulate
the disposition of the Bankrupt's assets so as
to make them realize the greatest amount,
and for this purpose the court is authorized
to allow the assignee or receiver to carry on
the bankrupt's business for a period not exceeding
nine months, when the interests of the
estate and of the creditors will be thereby
promoted. Stringent provisions are also
made by section 4 to enforce the accountability
of the assigneee, and to surround the estate
with safeguards against any abuse of the
nnnnrhinitipQ nf liis no.fitiou. To SaV6 eX
~rr~* ? ? ? i
peuse to the estate where small creditors are
numerous, it is provided that notice of proceedings
being taken may be given by publication
instead of personal service, or mail, as
now.
Section 9 of the amendatory act makes an
important change in the law by enacting that I
in cases of involuntary bankruptcy the payment
of no proportion of the bankrupt's debts,
nor the assent of any of his creditors, shall be
necessary to his discharge; and in cases of
voluntary bankruptcy the proportion is lowered
from fifty to thirty per cent., and instead
of a majority in number and value of creditors,
the assent of but one-fourth in number
and oDe-third in value is made necessary.
The periods during which transactions intended
to give preference are made inoperative
by the present law are changed from four
and six to two and three months. In order
to set aside hypothecated pledges or liens on
the bankrupt's estate, it must appear that the
party dealing with the bankrupt knew that
he intended to perpetrate a fraud upon the
Bankrupt law, and that he intended to go into
bankruptcy. When a loan is made to a
bankrupt in good faith, and security taken
with the intention of aiding him to pull
through, it shah be considered as having actual
value, aud the security shall not be invalidated
by proceedings in bankruptcy.
The specification what shall constitute acts
of bankruptcy is materially amended in the
matter of suspension of payments, a fraudu-1
lent suspension for any length of time, and actual
suspension without resumption within
forty days, being enumerated as such. But instead
of a single creditor, to the amount of
S250, being able to force a debtor into bankruptcy,
the amendatory act requires one-fourth
in number and one-third iu value. And the
provisions of this section are applied to all
cases of involuntary bankruptcy begun since
December 1, 1873, before, as well as after,
the passage of this act; so that cases heretofore
commenced on the petition of creditors less
in number and value may, on the petition of
the debtor, be dismissed. It is also provided
that in computing the number of creditors
who shall join in the petition, those whose
KAflnanfiifft /I/"vKfo rJr\ imf Qrnnnrl dial I nnf
V O UCi/lO UV liUl WAVVIVU V"VV OUW?t uvv i
be reckoned. Proceedings may be discontinued
whenever the debtor pays those second
debts which were the ground of throwing him
into bankruptcy, or whenever, with the consent
of the courts, he and a majority of the
creditors shall ask for a discontinuance of the
proceedings.
A majority in number and three-fourths
in value of the creditors, in cases now pending
or adjudicated, as well as those hereafter
begun, may, at a meeting called by the court,
agree to accept a composition offered by the
debtor, aud thus agreed upon it shall be binding
upon the creditors brought in according
to the provisions of the act. The court, however,
may refuse to confirm such composition,
for good cause.
Section 18 makes the important reductiou
of one-half in all existing fees, commissions,
charges and allowances, except necessary disbursements,
until the Justices of the Supreme
Court shall make new rules to simplify?and,
in so far as in their judgment will conduce to
the benefit of creditors, to consolidate?the
duties of bankruptcy officials, reduce their
charges and avoid delays.
Provision is also made for annual renorts
? -v' ,w*w" ?- ti
by district marshals, and notaries public are
authorized to take such proof of debts against
the estate of a bankrupt.
SOUTHERN MISRULE.
To the Editor of the New York
Times: No Southern reader of your paper
can fail to accord you sincere thanks for the
manly and direct exposures you have recently
made of the wrongs perpetrated by the political
rings that are ruling and ruining South
Carolina. Although one-fourth of the truth
of that incredible crime?the misgovernment
of South Carolina?has not yet been told, we
of the South are grateful for every one that
' Miches the ear of the country, because we fully
upon the humanity as well as the
equity of country at large, if we can ever
get the testimxuy of our case before it. We
are grateful, acco*<tjUglyf to you for giving
your readers so many strong truths in your
case. I feel assured, the*. that, you will
allow me to call attention to anoint or two
Iipnrin(r nnnn thp mn.tt.pr in thp lpffp. ?/m..
o "rw ? vfi yyjui
special correspondent from Columbia, wwch
appeared in your Sunday is3ue of the 21st
instant. Pardon me for premising that I was
resident as a citizen of that State during the
period of reconstruction?that I know personally
most of the actors on both sides, and have
carefully studied the issues made; so that I
have at least enjoyed opportunities of knowing
something of the matters whereof I speak.
Your correspondent is a stranger to the
State, and in seeking information about
it, went to Moses and Chamberlain?two men
who have had active participation in the
government that has proved so disastrous and
oppressive. Both of these men have been iu
the State ring from the Constitutional Convention
down to the present time. Your
readers hardly need to be told who Gov.
Moses is. Mr. Chamberlain helped to inaugurate
that government, and was tor tour years
the Attorney-General of the State. As Attorney-General,
he was a member, and, of
course, legal adviser, of the Financial Board,
which consisted of Governor Scott, Treasurer
Parker and himself. Through the hands of
this board passed most of the financial operations
that have resulted in the ruin that now
astounds the country with its enormity and
infamy. If Mr. Chamberlain was ignorant
of the frauds, what can be said of his intelli
gence r it tie was aware or inem, wnat can
be said for his honesty? Being AttorneyGeneral,
it was his sworn duty to protect the
interests of the State. Now, seeking information
about that misgovernment, yonr correspondent
has gone to these men. Let me respectfully
submit that Messrs. Tweed and
Gennet are hardly the best persons to go to for
information about the ring frauds in the city
of New York.
Your correspondent has two leadiug ends
in view?the one to plead the cause of the
carpet-baggers, and the other, to abuse the
Democrats. He is aware?for Mr. Chamberlain
told him so?that the issue there is one
of race ; the blacks being called Republicans
aud the whites being called Democrats. But
Republicanism and Democracy have had
nothing to do with the issue, which has been
one of public plunder under the prostituted
name of the Republican party. Injustice is
done to the whites of the State by your
correspondent when he charges that the
Democrats "are quite as responsible for the
present condition of affairs as the Republicans,"
and attempts to prove it by showing
the infamy of Mclntyreand others, who have
been the most ultra Republicans in the State
from the beginning. The whites of South
Carolina have less respect for the scalawag?
native thief?than they have for the carpetbagger?imported
thief. And for your correspondent
to say that, if Chamberlain were
i to get the regular nomination, it is very cer-1
tain that the Democrats?the whites?would f
vote for Moses, is to show that he is utterly j uninformed
of the state of affairs and of pub- n
i lie sentiment there, except as they are seen ' (
I through the eyes of his informant, Mr. Cham- J''
berlain.
| Again, your correspondent tells us that "the
Democrats"?he is fond of the word be- j '
I cause of the odium in it?"not only placed 11
every opposition in the way of the advance- , a
raent of the blacks, but stood entirely aloof >'
from public affairs;" aud he makes this state- j
ment, apparently, without being aware of the
contradiction contained in his own words, j
Placing every opposition in the way of the j"
blacks is impossible in men who stood entire-!
ly aloof from public affairs.
It is true that there was a time when the '
whites might have conciliated the blacks, and !
numbers of them worked earnestly for that! r
end; but the means necessary to meet the j
cunning and treachery of their opponents? i A
the carpet-baggers?in their work were of a j"
character such that no man of houor could j
stoop to them. This is tantamount to saying
that the carpet-baggers were a set of wily,
treacherous, unscrupulous, and unprincipled
adventurers, and that is exactly my meaning.
The immigrant is not necessarily a carpetbagger,
however, nor is he any where in the
South so considered. J
I do not undertake to say that the whites
at all times took the wisest of the honorable c
courses left open before them. I took issue b
with some of their steps then, and still think r'
them in error; but when the contest came, in
the winter of 1867-8, the whites were suddenly
rendered powerless, before they suspect- ?
ed the cause, by a policy pursued by the carpet-baggers,
which was so snake-like in its -i
stealth, and yet so reckless in its unblushing '
audacity, so vile in its dirty process, and ?
so preposterous in its absurd effrontry, Cl
that the whites were staggered by a two-fold
difficulty?they did not believe that the vilest si
human adventurer could be guilty of so wick- j
ed a scheme; and, in the second place, with l>
all their slender appreciation of the negro's in- Jj
telligeuce, they could uot conceive him so idi- ^
otic as to be led astray and befooled by
such glaring and silly, not to say impossible,
promises aud pretences. We were willing
enough to have power then, and to get it by
any honorable means; but, under those circumstances,
it required such sacrifices as we ?
were not prepared to make?sacrifices of honor,
decency and truth. From the Northern ^
standpoint, this probably cannot be seen, but
from theirs it was, aud is, as plain as the mid- ?
day sun. It may be criticised as mistaken, c
ill-judged, wrong if you will, but the point I
wish to make is that it was an existing fact. *
The whites were powerless?whatsoever may n
be said about the causes?to control affairs at t;
that critical juncture of our history. The ^
whites there were responsible for the raisgov- n
eminent somewhat as the Republicans of New G
York city were responsible for the Tweed ring
and its abuses. Very respectfully,
J as. Wood Davidson.

county bonds.
Whatever difference of opinion there may -y
have been as to the wisdom of issuing bonds
in aid of the Chester and Lenoir Narrow
Gauge Railroad Company, there cau be no
doubt in any mind as to the desirability of ]
the road, and no doubt but that its success de- r
pends mainly upon realizing the full value of o
the bonds issued. ^
The people of this county and all of its
property are bound to pay the interest and ^
principal of the bonds, and the Courts of the a
State and the United States will force the <
payment of every dollar. It becomes, then, *
simply a question whether we will pay the j
money and have the road, or pay the money
and not have it. If the bonds are taken by
our own people at their value, the road will J
certainly be built ; but if the bonds are sacric
j ,?:n Kq K?;W
liUCU IUC iuau mil uut uu uuuv?
It becomes, then, the duty and interest of
every property-holder in the county to come ?
forward aud each take his share. There is }
enough money in the county to absorb every 1
dollar, and it is greatly to be desired that the
bonds should be held at home.
They constitute a fair and safe investment, i
The coupons are receivable for county taxes. J
They will, if taken at $80 (the rate at which ^
they are offered) pay about nine per cent, interest.
All the property in the county is ~
bound as security for their payment. So that ,
persons who invest in them are not only safe
iu so doing, but at the same time they will i
help iu a great public enterprise, which will '
build up and enhance the value of their prop- .
erty.
Especially is the town of Chester interested n
iu this matter. New buildings are going up
every day. New business houses are being opened.
From whence is to come the trade
which will make them prosper ? Unless new <
aveuues are opened, they cannot succeed ; the '
town will stagnate, it will be "over-cropped." !
It becomes necessary, then, for those inter- |
ested to move at once. Unless these bonds
are taken, work on the road will be stopped.
If the road is not built, the town and county i
will fall into a decay, and the county will '
still be burdened by the taxation, which uoth- .
iug but increased prosperity will enable it to
eudure.
It is a serious matter and demands instant v
atteutiou. In the county of York some of
the most prudent and substantial citizens have
come forward to the aid of the road and
are taking these bonds. Why should we lag
Wrind? The road will do more for us than J
for Every consideration of interest prompts
u? to move, and to move ouicklv. for
the necessity k urgent. Let our business
men step to the from.; the people will not be
lacking if they set the example.? Cheater Re- "

IN the construction of this GIN it is claimed
for it to run lighter, bear a higher rateof speed,
CLEAN THE SEED BETTER AND MAKE A
PRETTIER SAMPLE OF COTTON, than any
other Saw Gin now in use. They are simple and
easily managed, being almost impossible to over
feed or cause the roll to break. They have the
SELF-OILING BOXES, affording protection
against heat or fire. The superiority of these
Gins can be authenticated by certificates from the
most reliable persons in the country.

. PATENT SLATE ROOFING PAINT !
A ROOF can be covered with a cheap shingle,
/X and by application of this slate be inado to
last from twenty to twenty-five years. Old roofs
ran be patched and coateu, looking much better,
and lasting longer than new shingles without the
slate, for
ONE-THIRD THE COST OF RE-SHINGLING.
The expense of slating now shingles is only
about the cost of simply laying them. The Paint
is FIREPROOF against sparks or flying embers,
as may be easily tested by any one, and appears
from the fact that Insurance Companies make
nearly the
SAME TARIFF AS FOR SLATED ROOFS.
For tin and iron it has no equal, as it expands
by heat, contracts by cold, and nover cracks nor
stales. For fences it is particularly adapted, as it
will not corrode in the most exposed places. Roofs
covered with Tar Sheathing Felt can be made
water-tight at a small expense. The Slate Paint
IS EXTREMELY CHEAP!
m ?i"or a hundred sauare feet of
1 WW ^anuiio n lii vv ? V* ?
shingle roof, or over four hundred of tin or iron.
Price ready for use is 80 cents per gallon.
NO TAR IS USED IN THIS COMPOSITION,
Therefore, it does not affect the water from the
roof, if turned off from the cistern before the first
few rainB.
On decayed shingles it fills up the holes and
pores, hardens them and gives a new substantial
roof that will last for years. Curled or warped
, shingles it brings to their places and keeps them
there. It fills up all holes in Tin or Felt Roofs,
and stops the lealts, one coat being equal to five of
ordinary paint. The color of the slate when first
applied is dark purple, changing in aboutamonth
to a light uniform slate color, and it is,
TO ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES, SLATE.
The Paint has a very heavy body, but it is easily
i put on, and although' a slow dryer, rain will not
affect it in the least one hour after applying,
i Roofs examined, estimates given, and when required
will be thoroughly repaired. Orders respectfully
solicited. All our Paints arc mixed
ready for use.
