CHARLEST N.
FRIDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 15, 1807.
l ill: SPRI.VG TltADE.
Wo linvo reached tho middle of February, and
tho plcaHont dave of Spring nro upon us; tho limo
of all tho year tho moat pleasant in our climntc;
when tho occasional and Bifid rigors of Winter oro
past, nnd ero yet tho opprossivo honl of tho Sun's
vertical rays gives our ntmonphcro a tropical char
aclcr. , Tho trees arc in bloou, tho gardens full of
fragrance, and r- plendont in their wealth of Aural
bonuty. Our parks and public promena JOH onco
moro aro clad with virgin green. Tho hirds nro
warbling their lenton carrols; in short, nntuio is
gay, and all hor creatures glad, rejoicing in their
youth and bonvty.
lliis is thc season wV.i many pf our frionds
from tho interior usually v : >it our city. Tho Races,
in tho bright and goldri. chtya of voro, attracted
many tranger to tho city. Tliero was a linn
Oouriahiug Thealic also, now no moro, thal exer
cised no small infiuonco in bringing strangers to
Charleston. Wo aro now deprived of thoi>o ex
traneous nttrnclions, hut tho pleasant climnto still
is ours, so tho soft zophyrs of spring, nnd tho ex
hilarating breozos wafted in from tho bosom of
the broad Atlantic. Our hotels aro excellently
fitted np, and oifor to tho traveller all tho moans
and appliances wherewith to toko his comfort and
onjoy his oasc.
Rut Charleston is a grcnt commercial centro
tho natural outlot of n largo extent of hack coun
try. Tho morchants of this and adjoining States
for > earn have como to Charlostou to mubo their
purchnses, nnd tho lending houses of our city
wcro in business relations with every part of tho
South nnd West. Tho sovornl years of Ibo war,
and, still moro, tho gonorsl disruption of tho franio
work of commerce, as of socioty, consequent upon
the disastrous close of otu- war, havo dono much
to derango this current of trndc. But our mer
chants havo been up and doing. Thoy Bet to work
promptly; fino stores wore fitted up; Iorgo nnd
well assorted stocks of goods of every description
wcro brought hero,and offered nt reasonable rates.
Tho railroads have nil been repaired, and nre,
many of thom ni least, in better order now than
thoy wcro before thc war. Tho rates of freight
aro rea nona bio, and ovcry effort is roado, wo havo
reason to boliovo, by tho President and Superin
tendents of tho several linos of roads radiating
hero, to facil talo tho business in ovcry possible
way, and wo bare of lato heard but fow complaints
on this score. Tliero is now regular communica
tion by rail with every part of tho country; and hy
steamboat with Savannah, Florida, tho castora
and northeastern parts of this Stuto, as woU aa
with ull tho leading ports of tho North. Tho ave
nues aro all open, and there is every inducement
for buyers to como here.
Wo huvo importers and jobbers hero iu ovcry
lino of trade. Urocerioa, Dry Ooods, Hals, Cloth
ier. Fancy Goods, Hardwaro, Straw Goods and
MUlincrfV, Saddlery, Drugs, Paints, Boots and
Shoos, ooke, Crockery,-in short, every thing that
human flesh woild wish to ho heir to, can bo had
horo in abundance, and at prices 03 low as thone
obtaining in Now York, tho price of freight and
insurance alone being added. It ia manifestly
theroforo to tho interest of tho country merchant
to pnrchaso herc, whore ho ia known ; where ho
can como and select his guuaa every monto, or
ovcry Ino months, rather than go on to Now York
once or Ivrico a year. Tho old credit system, al
ways a great curso to tho country, is abolished.
Transactions of all kinds, both North and South,
nu a rulo, aro for cash. This is found tho best,
tho Batest, omi altogether tho most satisfactory
method ol transacting business now. Such is tho
fluctuation in tho prico of gold, Iho standard of
tho circulating medium, that thc credit si stem
must of necessity ho entirely incompatible with
it ; to say nothing of thu vory unsettled condition
of political afiaini, and tho gonoral loss of con
fidence, engendorod thereby through ovory circlo
of trade, through ovory walk of life.
f VI.I.'I, therefore, is tho word; or what ia consid
ered equivalent, n ohoit credit with city rccopt
anre. On thei r terms goods oro purni] a oil, and
on theso thoy must bo sold; and howovcr inconve
nient tho evett, m may bo at tho outsot, in the end
it will ho found that it works host to all parlies,
infinitely to tho advantago of the Jobber, scarcely
less BO to the country merchant, and BO likowise to
tho rot ail purchaser and final consnmor. It will
bo oasy, by following thia plan, at ail limes for
each party to toko tho moosuro of his standing.
The lom of "bad" and "doubtful debts" will no
longor disfigure tho "profit and loss" sido of tho
ledgor; and tho consumer will not bo under tho
diagreeablo necessity of meditating how to pay for
nlml has already beon consumed. Tho old indis
criminate credit system woa impolitic, unfair, and
^niquitous,-such as ultimately must prove ruin
ous to nny country. Obligations between mor
o.l m nt.s and merchants, or morchanU and hankora,
are recognized tho world over with scrupulous ox
actnosn. But thu moment the merchant enters
into any negotiations o this character with an
unmorcantilo party, novor mind what his occupa
tion or profession, what his position in Bociety, or
what his character for honesty or integrity, ho can
not foel tho samo confidence and security. This
fact is too weU known to need any proof tn farther
elucidation. Connu ero i al honesty ia often sneered
at by tho moralist; tho poet long ago said: "Honor
sinka whoro commerce long provaila." Wo shall
not undortako to say there ia no truth in this.
But e'er tain ia that Uro merchant only, of all classes
of socioty, fools a eacrod obligation to redeem bis
plodge to tho vory letter; to moot hia drafts on the
very day they faU due. How thia Ia to bo dono,
when his debtors do not moko similar exertions,
unlosa ho have an exhnnstlosa capital, wo oro at a
IOBS to indicate.
Let tho merchants then fi om Florida, Goorgia,
Alabama, Mississippi, South, and North Carolina,
como lo Charleston, in waa their wont in other
days, Thoy will find a good market boro for any
produce thoy may lah lo bring to inarkot ; and
thoy will as heretoforo, find a largo and excellently
assorted stock of gooda and merchandise of ovory
description, at aa reason aldo rates as thoy can ob
tain In Now York, Philadelphia, Boston or Balli
moro. Lol thom como,. and try us onco again.
Our Merchants, Importers and Jobbers, all expect
a largo trade Ulis Ipring, and wo earnestly hopo
they may fully rer , o their moat aanguine expecta
tions.
PHIIJANTHHOPY.
Human nature is Tory curious. While it ia Imo
that in tho main it ia always nnd overywhore tho
nanni, yet it undergoes various changea from Umo
to time, tho onuses of which aro still a mystery to
tho monta! physiologist. Virtuos and vices par
take of tho changea of fashion; and although tho
.'rnatio moralist" may, in bia simplicity, think
theso standards have long boon, eoltlod, ho would
soon find, on oponlng a newspaper or going to
CongrouB, that what waa onco thou ht a virtuo,
has now bcronin all but disreputable, and what
waa formerly hoid vorypropor and highly respecta
ble, ia now a "covonant with oin;" an InaUtnUon
.rocognizod by Scripture, and, in days not long
past, logaliccd In ovory civilized and OhriaUan
country, ia now only known aa tho 'sum of all
villany.
