-that the'Xailure^'or 1869 haye not ^eji. exbessive,
?either ja number, aor amount, in TleW;orthe
dullness or trade, thc depression existing thc
greater part or the year, and above all, thc large
depreciation in values which the year has wit?
nessed.
-A correspondent of the New York Sun, writ?
ing rrom New Orleans, says that trade ls very
quiet, money scarce, and many business houses
unoccupied. Merchants who have been In busi?
ness ror twenty and thirty years arc talking of
winding up their affairs sud seeking a belier
place ror their operaiious. The great Southern
steamship monopolist, Charles Morgan, is, how?
ever, said to be coining ninney very fast, making
as much as $Oi;.ooo per week, clear of allexpcuses.
Ile charges more than twice as much freight on
merchandise from New Orleans io Texas ports as
is charged upon merchandise from New York io
the same ports. From New Orleans to (ialvostou
he charges eighteen dollars for passage, which is
three times as much as is charge.', from New
York to Boston, which arc the same distance
apart.
-A Washington letter says: "Two representa?
tives of loreign banking-houses (one from London
and one from Frankfort) have arrived in this
country ror thc purpose or making propositions
to the government to negotiate abroad a four and
a half per cent, loan, should Congress authorize
it, on the plan submitted by Secretary Boutwell
in his annual report, and which will be considered
at an early day by the Senate Fiuauce Commit?
tee. They state that if the interest is made pay?
able semi-annually in London, Paris and Frank?
fort, they will be able to effect the sale or at least
two hundred millions of dollars of sucha loan.
Pending thc action of Congress on this question,
the terms on which the foreign houses will un?
dertake the proposed loan will bc submitted to
the Secretary of the Treasury. Those are of
course based on a commission, which, it is said,
will bc much less than was paid for selling the
live-twenties. ? /
A Word to the General Assembly.
Beaufort, or St. Helena Island, lies so re?
mote from the routes of travel that the out?
side world know little of its decline and
fall. The philanthropists who were ready
to emancipate the negroes at a cost of nine
thousand millions, according to Commis?
sioner Wells, are not aware of the fact that
in one section of South Caroliua the ability
of the freedman to improve or maintain bis
position hajg been thoroughly tested, with thc
moat lamentare results. And the Congress?
men who represent orr State ignore a line
of conduct, on the part of thc officers of the
government, which ruins the white man, and
is rapidly reducing the negro to a condition
of hopeless barbarism.
When St. Helena Island, or Beaufort, was
evacuated in 18C1. the freedmen became, at
one bound, the possessors of houses, laad,
cattle, stock, and implements and farniture
)f all kinds. The old residents bad fled to
:he interior of the State, and their slaves
squatted upon their teeming acres and occu?
pied their luxurious hornes. Without a far?
cing of cost the negroes ' obtained the use
)f property worth millions of dollars. Large
jodies of Federal troops were quartered
tmong them, spending motley freely. They
lad every encouragement to be thrifty and
ndustrious. In 1S63, when the lands aud
?omesteads of the abseut proprietors were !
sold under the United States Direct Tax law,
.he freedmen bought ata nominal price, and
ipon highly accommodating terms, as many
icres as they required. Their title might be
:onsidered good ; for the Federal Govern?
ment bad then no notion of granting to the
white man any justice which should, in ap?
pearance, injure the negro. Surely, nobody
if! freedmen could have had a better oppor?
tunity of showing their capacity for moral
and material elevation ! The experiment
bal been fairly tried and bas miserably failed.

raised, if rom the dust und enabled to share
the common burdon of taxation. For-the
^ood of the freedmen of St. Helena, they
should' -have employment-steady em ploy?
aient-which will give,"them food; clothing
and shelter for .themselves a?d their families.'
This cannot! be had without capital; and
capital without experience, on our sea
islands, has proved of little; value.
-What is .wanted, .,it .peems to us, is a re
ttirn of the old plauters to. their old homos.
The question of the validity of the land sales
ls before the United States District Court
for South ea-ollna,' and the decision or the
Judge is'anxiously awaited. Dut there are
p?h?r whys in which the planton can obtiiiu
possession ^61 their, lands. Many of the per?
son^ whp'bought lands at ,.the tax. sales of
?8C3 fa,i?ed,,to rumply with the texms.of pur?
chase, ?hoianilshavebeenreutetl at a nom?
inal rate fromiyear to year. Taking tho posi?
tion that it -is best for clio colored people
that thc?e lands should be cultivated by the
only persons who will cultivate thom ; and for
the higher reason that in a public renting of j
laud by a government official all men Should !
s;and upon the same footing, the conduct of
the United Slates Direct Tax Commissioners
deserves a thorough investigation. If our
information be correct, they have so ar?
ranged their public notices of selling or
leasiug laud, that no person at a distance
has had an opportunity of knowing what
was to be done. Difficulties have been
thrown in the way of white men who de?
sired to purchase or rent, and in one in?
stance, :tt least, the United States Commis?
sioner said emphatically that he did not in?
tend that the old proprietors should get back
upon the land. Jf this were an injury to
only a small number of white men, no word
of ours might produce any effect. But as
long as the white men, with their experience
and their capital, are kept out, the whole
State must, directly or indirectly, bc the
loser. We know not whether this matter
has reached the ears of the colored members
of the General Assembly who represent the
seaboard. They may not be willing to ad?
mit that men of their own race, with so
many advantages, have gone backward in?
stead of forward. But they cannot change
thc fact by hiding it. They should grapple
at once with thc difficulty, and show that
tliey can pay attention to other things than
railroads and phosphates. A word from our
Radical Legislature would go a long way
with the Republican majority in Congress.
Shall that word be said?
Extending thc City.
We print this morning the bill to extend
the limits of the City of Charleston, which
provides for holding an election on thc
second Tuesday in April next, and the crea?
tion of two, not ten, new wards. The num?
ber of Aldermen will be thc same as now,
but the distribution will be difTereuL Wards
1, 3 and 4 will lose one Alderman each ;
Ward 8 will gain ono Alderman, and Wards
9 and 10 will have one Alderman each.
