TBS CHARLESTON DAILY NEWS "Ia designa ..ted as the newspaper for the publication of "all legal notices, and official advertisements, "for the County of Charleston, ander tho act .'of February 22d, 1870, entitled an act to regu? late the publication of all legal and public ''"noticea." , , md >? * NEWS OF TBE DAY. ^-Helmbold Ia living very quietly In the BO burbs of Philadelphia, and has the calm satisfaction of knowing that he owes more creditors than *any other mas living or dead. Thfi: re'.c hsmar k, the new German Imper lal'coln, Is about equal In value to the English shilling or twenty-lour cents In gold. Here? tofore, these coins have been quoted by New York bankers in groups of three or four-thoa seventy-two cents gold for three relchsmarbs, or ninety-elx cents gold for loar relohsmarks. A movement, however, ia on foot to give the price In the New York market of the single reichsmark, so-as to avoid the contusing meth? od mentioned. -It will be Interesting to the publlo to learn that there ls a prospect that the long delayed postal cards will soon be Issued. Con? gress authorized them last June, but failed to make an appropriation to pay the expense ol engraving and printing? The Postmaster General estimates that $100,000,000 of the cards will be used In a single year, and to pay for the number that will probably be demanded between now and the 1st of July the House asked an appropriation of $60,000 among the Items in the dedotenoy bill. The bill will pass before the holiday recess, and th?) cards will probably, be ready soon a Oer the.l s t ot Jan nary. -Th? Louisiana troubles have had the most deplorable effect on business. Private ad? vices from New Orleans are to the effect that the contest has brought every department of business and industry to a stand-still. A deep gloom pervades the entire city. The move? ments of commodities, usually so active at this season of the year, have been practically .. suspended. Planters and farmers are afraid to ship their cotton and other products to that olly, and shipments to other Cities are sus? pended. The orders tor goods which former? ly went to New Orleans are sent to rival cities. The prospect tor the remainder of this winter, therefore, ls anything bat a cheerful one, and the end ls not yet? -The New York Court o? Appeals bas de olded that the usury laws of tho State of New York'apply to the transactions o? national banka on contracts made In tba State, and that a violation of such laws subj acta the of? fending bank to the penalty they impose. The decision hinged apon the osse of the First National Bank bf Whitehall against James Lamb aod others, the defendants pleading usury tareslat payment of a promissory note. Thejadge at circuit gave a verdict for the plaintiff, holding that the State laws against usury did not apply to national banks. This decision the Court ol Appeals set. aside, de? claring the defence of usury available, and o rders a new trial. -At seven o'clock, Monday evening, John Sifflmons arJd-NIcho!as H.

Simmons, after the ijomlolde, took refuge in a neighbor? ing saloon; where be was arrested soon after? wards; bat ia getting away he fell, fracturing the lower bones bf his ankle. Simmons and the body^ of his ' Victim were brought to the police station, where Simmons refused to make any statement when Interrogated by the officer in charge, and persisted In his refosal . when visited by reporters. Dory ea was about tbJfcr y?ars of age, of genteel appearance, light build, and lived at Port Richmond, Staten Island, where he leaves a wife and two children. The. cause of the fatal quarrel la not known, but it was supposed to be con? nected with the lottery business, In which they wereengaged. ~3?u$rn? Sherman waa examined before the American and British claims commission in Ws?htagtcn,: on Tuesday last, in regard to the barning ot Columbia. He denied that he had Issued orders to burn Columbia, but ad? mitted that the'army waa greatly exasperated against South Carolina, and thia exasperation . wasgreatly increased by General Hamptons command firing Into his camp a night or two before entering Colombia, which exaspera? tion he and bia officers participated In, and this was known to. the men. A oorrespon dence was then shown to General Sherman purporting to have taken place between bim and General Hal le ck while on his march to Columbia. The communication from Hal look desired bim to destroy Charleston and sow lt with salt, so there might no more nullification and secession grow UR there. To thia Sherman In reply Wrote that Charleston and Columbia would soo? be-to Ms hands, and Halleck would ham no causa tQ^cojnplain of his treat? ment Of, them. That he had the Fifteenth Corps with him, and that corp* did their work well; and farther, that he (Sherman), would not spare the public buildings at Columbia aa he had at Milletlgeville. General Sherman admitted, on his examination, that this cor? respondence was authentic He stated that he occupied Columbia with tho Fifteenth Corps. In reply to the question whether be kept the menin ranks after taking poe session of the oity, he said, "No." He could not have done so to have prevented the burning ot .wry. town in the State of South'Carolina. !9Port,? were drawn oat bv the repre sentativeeof the British claimants, who al. lege that their property at Colombia was de SSS&fSS!0"^ *nd lQ flotation of the ?fral 8heraan manifested a^ddealol excitement during theexaml Spinal RrtittS. ?S- CONSIGNEES FEB STEAMSHIP JAMES AUGER, fro m Ne w York, ure notified that tue will dlschargo cargo THIS DAT, at Adger'a Sooth Wharf.
