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." . .

H. H. Myers, of Friendship Lodge, No. 9, on
4 'the principles and symbolism of-Freemason?
ry.'' 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

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.

To the Editor of ?he News: .
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.
