The merchants -could not waifuntil .the pavement hardened, and it has been ploughed .into innumerable ridges by tho tails of. the" drays and the heavy barrels and boxes that have been rolled upon it If the City Fathers' wish to form a hardi sidewalk, impervious to the. weather, they should not wait for .the trampling of feet to : effect this end, but should have the pavement -smoothed and hardened by ? heavy roller. THE STATE DELEGATION.-The New York World says: "The South Carolina delegation has not decided to support any particujar can ?didate, and does not propose to take any active part in procuring the-nomination of any one. The delegates seem to think that the nomina? tion, with its attendant responsibilities, should ;l?ieft' entirely to the representatives of the Northern Democracy, and that the Southern ./Jelegates should limit their action to giving a -cordial ^indorsement to the nominee, whoever lie may be. This feeling is quito general among the Southern -delegates." . . SALES OT BEAL ESTATE,-Messrs.

This lecture willhe public, and the ladies are especially invited; As the .fair sex have enough of Mother Ere in their coirrposition to be curious ou the subject, of Masonry, and to wonder h?.w tho men can keep a secret from them, it is fair to presume that they will at-' tend en masse. A procession of the Lodges will be formed at the Masonic Hall, the Masons -appearing in full regalia, and accompanied by a bond of music. ON.'THE STREET.- There was a general dearth of items yesterday. Nothing s tar tiing oc? curred-not even'a dog was run over, and until th s telegrams from the Democratic Conven - tion were received, Charleston rvas in a beatific state of quiescence. ? Having been BO long out of the Union, few persons were disposed to risk their greenbacks on the success of either can? didate; but the different bulletin boards were each surrounded by an anxious crowd, and as the successive ballots. arrived and were made public, the excitement rapidly increased. The -opinions of the crowd were diverse, but the ma? jority seemed to be in favor of Hancock, and assamed that when nominated he would sweep rthe field. . THE YACHT RACE which was proposed some 'time since, for a service of silver plate, seems to hang fire. Committees were appointed to collect subscriptions, but as yet no reports havo been made. It is now state d that the rape will ha postponed until the completion of the new yacht being built by Mr. Jones for Mr. F. J. Porcher. This will be launched in about ten days time, and should induce those boats whose sailing qualities have been recently tested to try their speed with the new-comer. There, is little business doing during the sum? mer, and no better amusement could be found than another regatta. It is a spor t in which the entire community are interested, and every ?oort should be made by the yacht owners and their backers to have another contest simitar to the last HOTEL ARBTYALB, July- 8.-Charleston Hotel.

This cannot be avoided by our riers, who are driven to the utmost to ? their routes at an early hour; but, if newsr readers will go to the small expense of atl ing a newspaper box to their gates, they make their papers secure, save them from and bensure that any irregularity in their r< tion, due to the carrier, will be promptly r died. JEFFERSON LODOE, NO. 4, L O. 0. F. semi-annual visitations of the Lodge! the Independent Order of Odd Fellows closed on Tuesday night, bv the installatic the officers elect of this Lodge. The proc ings were public, and there was quite a 1 attendance of the Fraternity and of the com nity at their ball, at the corner of King Liberty streets. The officers of the Grand Lodge were in regalia, and the officers elect were duly ins ed by M. W. Grand Master Thos. Y.

TEE CHARLESTON DELEGATION TO PHTLAI PHIA.-In their report of their visit to the tional Board of Trade in Philadelphia, Mes W. L. Trenholm and. Henry Cobia, the d gates appointed by the Board of Trade Charleston, speak in the highest terms of manner in which they were received. T sketch* ont the constitution of the Natu Board, give the names of its officers, ant conclusion say: There were no smallnesses, no narriw vic no provincial prejudices .there; the subtle m of the East, the large experience of the mid coast, the gr?ai heart ortho West, tho wa enthusiasm of the South, and in this we oh Baltimore for the South, all work togethei build up a great institution for the conan benefit of all. The National Board of Iradi an institution which cannot die. It is a po1 and an influence in the land, potential only yet, but destined to become most potent. is to be the great conservator of coalmen interest, the great expounder of comm en usage, the great forum of commercial "tercourse, the great advocate of commert righ? in and for all these -United States. It is to be regretted that .the ancient Cha ber of Commerce of this city did not, too, hi her representatives at this Convention; it is be regretted that our sister cities of the Son .Galveston, Mobile, Memphis, Savannah, V mington and Norfolk, omitted to send dc gates. The door, however, is open to them all, a they will meet in Cincinnati as warm a welco; and as kind Iv a reception as your delegates ceived in Philadelphia. The gentlemen w attended the Convention were able and influt tial men; they all expressed deep interest Southern recuperation, and those from t great cities of the Lakes and the Mississi; Valley exhibited a most earnest desire for ? opening out of more channels of intercom with the South. It is to ns of the South tl the West looks for now markets, cheat transportation and determined opposition monopolies grown great at its expense. The feelings have already borne fruits. Lonisyi has a direct line of railroad to Memphis a another to Mobile. The Illinois Central Ra road is pushing due Sout b, and a canal betwe Lake Michigan and tho Mississippi is excitii the enthusiasm of all the Northwest. Cinci nati and Louisville are urging forward tut railroads towards Knoxville, and the rich tra* of that whole country is straining to come ns here ii Charleston by thai route. Can \ do nothi g to overcome the obstacles inti way?>~ Can thia whole community of Charlesto . nay,, can the whole power and influence of tl State, do nothing to open the ponderous gat of the Blue Bidge to thia life-giving stream? It is. of great consequence to the State large, and to this city, that the rich commer of the West should find here an outlet to tl ocean. ._? THE UNITED STATES DISTBICT COURT-BO GEO. S. BRYAN PRESIDING.- The subjoin! opinion of Judge Bryan upon a question su mitred by W. J. f lawson, Esq., Registrar the Fourth Congressional District, as to tl fee of counsel being allowed out of the esta of u bankrupt in an issue of involuntary ban ruptcy, will be read with interest by mernie, of the bar throughout tho State: Exporte Wilson & Witherapoon, attorney! in re Moore & Moore, creditors, vs. Daniel Wi lianas, defendant and bankrupt. The Court hi this case concurs in the coi elusion and recommendotion of the Registra for the reasons staved by him, and other cot siderations, which seem to hove weight. The analogous. case in which counsel fee are allowed in om* State Courts in Chancery i that of a creditors bill against the insolvec estate of a deceased person. Now, in conten platipo of law, so far as bis properly is COE cerned, the bankrupt is dead. He is no longe " entitled to control over it, or thc distribute, of it. It is assets in the possession of th Court to be administered by the agency of ai assignee for the equal benefit of all creditors not preferred, end protected by hens-and sucl hen creditors secured in their liens, as in th cBse of an estate of a deceased insolvent. Ii i every successful prosecution of a suit in iuvol untary bankruptcy, the result is, that the do fendant declared a bankrupt is deprived of bit property, and it becomes an estate held for th< benefit of his creditors. The creditors' peti? tion is inevitably, in all such cases, substati tinily a creditors' bill against a deceased in? solvent. Such creditor is tho champion cer? tainly of all creditors, who either at the time of the suit or after its successful prosecution choose-to^ivail themselves of its benefits. They are at liberty at any yme to come in and ptofit by it. Sball thoy do'so without mak? ing the equal contiibution to tho expenses ol the suit (as in our Courts of Chancery), which has secured them a share in the bankrupt': estate? And shall the creditor, who has (as ic this case) rescued the estate, and made the fund for the benefit of the general creditors, he alone excluded from the common benefit: Shall he who is thus a common benefactor be made a martyr and a scapegoat ? Sholl he beor the whole burden and reap scarcely any if any-benefit ? Not certainly ii the Bankrupt Act is founded in justice, and its policy to be enforced. * There is a very cogent reason why any sin , gie creditor should feel at liberty to prosecute without the fear of having his claim swallowed up by the expenses of the snit, even when suc? cessful. The act contemplates fraud as the ground of prosecution in a great variety of forms. Instant action by one creditor m a {irecise locality, separated from other ciedi ors, and without opportunity ot counselling with them, is necessary for the efficient ad? ministration of the law, and the protection of the whole body of creditors. To .vait for time for consultation would, in numerous in? stances, be to lose the golden moment and let the fraudulent debtor go free. There should be no hin,,"anc? to any creditor acting promptly mu jr such circumstances. On the contrary, ho should be permitted and iuvited to play the part of champion of those in com? mon interest with him; to become the guardian of those who, from ignorance or absence, can? not toke care of themselves. How can this be, when the paralyzing thought is ever pre? sent to his mind, that whsn he has maintained the justice of the act, and secured the benefi? cent end contemplated by it, he is to be pun? ished and not rewarded for his zeal, activity and vigilance. That when he has brought conviction to the fraudulent debtor, and rescued property in thc act of transition, or the debtor, himself, in the act of escape, he is to be mulcted for aU his pains and expenses, and others, and not him? self to reap the full benefit of labors and sacri? fices sanctioned by the act, and essential to its maintenance. And let it be noted that it is not only when successful that the petitioning creditor can ask his fellow-creditors to contribute anything. He takes upon himself all the hazards and bur? dens of defeat. It is only when successful, and the creditors elect to share ia thc benefits of | his success, be asks them, in due proportion, to share the cost of it, and thus equalize the benefit and burden. . And be is paid out'of an estate in which the bankrupt-aa in the case of on estate of a deceased insolvent-bas no interest. For, as Uss been, raid before, the "bankrupt, so far as his property is concerned, is as a deceased insolvent. Ens property bas ceased to be his, and, henceforth, it is to be administered as an estate. Another important consideration entering into the determination of this question is that the measure of ihe counsel fee is not left to counsel and client. Whether a fee should bo allowed, and forj what amount, is to be-deter? mined by thc court, and is a question addressed to its equity. > The judge, in coming to bis conclusion in this matter, is aided by the fact that much of the labor to be compensated is done in bis1 . presence. Of this, the highest form of service, he is sup? posed to De a competent judge. Tf not folly iufbrmect, he takes counsel through the proper officer of the court, of the value of the whole services rendered, and does not allow the foe unless satisfied that full value has been given in the service rendered. The estate of the creditor is thus protected against any possible sinister speculation of client and counsel, or any innocent fanciful valuation that counsel might attach to their services, and oliente might be disposed to al? low, if permitted, without restraint, to tax the estates Of bankrupts. Upon very full consideration, and after much deliberation, it is ordered that the report of j Mr. Register dawson be confirmed. lt is also ordered that he report to the court what, in his judgment, is a proper counsel fee in this case, and that if there is any doubt up? on the amount, that he take evidence upon the question, and submit with his judgment to the court.

Now that a general balancing of accounts seems to, be going on in the community in re? gard to the honors incidental to the discovery of the phosphate deposits, and the debit and credit aides of the account with. Fame are being so nicely calculated and adjusted-the public honoring Professor Hohnes, and Profes? sor Holmes so. magnanimously sharing his laurels with Doctor Pratt-it would, perhaps, be as well that Doctor Pratt and Professor Holmes should unite in acknowledging what slight assistance they may have both derived from Dr. St. Julien Ravenel in the discovery which is to make them immortal. To gentlemen so anxious to do justice to each other and to all the world this cannot but be a grateful task. SIC VOS NON VOBIS. BUSINESS NOTICES. II. H.
