NkwYork, January 26.?An important meeting of New York citiiens was held at l he Hearing llouee at noon to day, to con aider the financial condition of the Southern plates, and what should be done D enable them to meet their obligation. The meeting was called to order by WU 1 atn Cullen Bryant, who spoke of the dis grace wlitah rested upon ihe entire untion owing to tha financial and business depres ' nion which had fallen with such crushing ei'.'e.t upon the Southern Status since the w*r, Immigration has stopped, bu*inc?s httii not revived and credit is impaired.? Under these circumstances it is impossible fur some of these Stales to pay the full amount of their indebtedness, and yvt ft is impossible for them to say so without incur ring odium which attaches to repudiation. C .lonel Htcbblijs then moved a set ofreso'u t.nus, which wero unanimously adopted.? The resolutions declare the sympathy of the ooiiimeroial interests of Now York with the So altera people, and appointed Messrs. J. C<>? Vermilyo, B. B. Sherman, B. B. Conegys and Enoch 1'ratt a committee to form a bu st* of compromise between tho defaulting States and the bondholders. THE COUNTRY IS SAFU !

JUDUE CARPENTER'S, DECISION, .Neither Legislature Legal and both In augurations Void. / Washington, D. C., January 28.? Ii i8 Klutcd and believed livro that Judgo-Carpcntor, of South Carolina, will docide that noithor legislature Ik regular; that noithor Govoruor was in augurated under conititutioiml forms ft'id that Chamberlain holds ovor, under hia old tenuro, until the Legislature, or ganized under tho rulings of tho Su premo Ccurt, convenes and can vassos tho voto* fur Stato ofBaors.. X Later*and (More Definite Statement of tho Points of the Expect?^ Decision, Comjmma, January 28?Midnight.? Judge Carpenter arrived nero to-day, nnd will nlo his deejmon to-morrow morning. He decides, briefly, upon tho imthority of tho ciiaes of tho Stato ex. r I. Sims vs. Hnyno, and others, and tho ! t too*, rel. Wullaco vs. Ilayno and Mackoy, os follows ; Fint. That the House of Represen tatives boforo which, in oOTijuuetion with tho Senate, Chamberlain was inau gurated, was not only illegal i'i wanting a quorum to do business, uut positively an unlawful assemblage, usurping the rightful authority of tho Houso of Hop* rrsentatives. and that tho proooedings o mferod no authority upon Mr. Cham berlain to exeroiso tho unties of t'>o of tloo of Governor. Second, Tbat tho legislative power of tho Sute is, by tho CoUNtituiimi, vested 4>i two distinet branchos, the Senato and the (Iouso, both together constituting the General Assembly, and that before the* can perform any legislative sot. t auh of tho hotisos must uot only be or ganised separately, but acting in eon junotion with the other, henoo, as there was no joint action, and Gen. Hampton* wat innuguratod without a Senate, tho prooMdiog* were invalid and conferred no authority upon him to exercise the 4>ffioe of Governor. Third. As the aet of the Mack< y J?egialNture in llio attempted i.tanguru tton of Chamberlain wuh illegal nr.d void, and conferred no right to offioo, it i<ould take away no right, and did not operate as a resignation by Chambor Fourth. As the Constitution provides that theJQovuroor shall hold his office for two years, and until his sucees?>r \< not only chosen, but quali&od, Cham bej-laiu in the lawful Governor uotil the qualification of his success r sod do loo 8*r- - n.- '-sy The efiVot of the decisiou, as will he reeo, is simply to wipe out everything dono t>u ^iihersid* siitce the day ufelec j lion, rcndfrioif it necessary lor the CbsniberUinSenate and Haiuptoo (louse to meet spun and together declare the result. This question will couic up iu the Supreme Court to uiorrow iu the haben^ corpus case of Juiues Poltou, and, as Judge Carpenter's docUiou will have been filed before tho Supreme Court meets. it is probable th.it his opinion may hare some weight iu decid ing this case also. Ju?l<*e Carpenter states that ho con sulted nil the authorities in the Wash"* ington libraries, but could* find no piece dcut to uid him in his decision. lie regards Justico .Hunt as the coming tilth judge iu the Kioctorul com mission.

The Turkish Denouomont Though tlio Sultan of Turkey is, in n certain sciho, an absoluio prince, there being no political assembly whiuh can by lrgislnt ion offer any chock to his will; yet ho must govern consistently with tl o Koran and the Sunnu or traditionary prcc< pta of Mohammed, and conforma bly to tho Konum naino' or codo of dcei sions and institutions which have been mi'.do consistently with tho ICorRii from the beginning of the empire; all of which form a system of Turkish common law, expounded, interpreted and declared by tho asaouibly of Ulrmao, ptesidod i?v*r by th? Mufti, whoso unnoiulouft decision ia supremo. Tho Sultan cannot declare war ov conclude peace, nor do anything el'0 ol great national importance, without first asking the Mufti and his Ulenns ??if it is lawful;'' and acting in accordance with their answer. Ktren in clues of ro belllut tho foautar j# oon'ot to have hat character as soon at tho Mufti <Uviides it to bo "lawful." Ileooe, it is apparent how muoh a weak Su'tan is tho pupp t of &o Mufti and his Utemos, The Rultan and tho Grand Council of tho Porto wero piobobly, then fore, oon ? struiued by a power afcmdiug bubiud those aod mightier tliat they, to take the course they have taken, aud declare the laat preputials of the European power* ''contrary to tho dignity, independence aud integrity or the empire," however just and reasonable they may have been. Turkey has, therefore, thrown dowo the gauntlet, and it only remains fur lluraia to tako it up and open the bull, or retire crcat fallen. We have not heretofore bolioved in the probability of a war to uriw out of thU imbroglio, but it now appears to us almort inevitable. "\Vliat will bo t' e re sult ? The Turk will display firoy, fkiiat ical, obstinate courage ; tho Ituseian. the dogged persistence of the bear, with un couth but overwhelming strength; and he possesses tho great advantage that while he can* hftramur the Turk at will, he cun -retire and be comfortably inaocessiblc, if tho conflict grows too hot, and renew it again at pleasure. Will other'powers keep jout of tho muss f Thero is some reason to hope so, though it will be diffi cult. Hard Times?Tboir Causo and Curo. Tho euuses of the stringency iu money and crcdits that has fallen upon us arc neither obscure nor far to teok.? The faring who alono produces tho articles which bring money kto us, have, notwith standing the *llu*ive array of cottou bales,, really niadu but little on a clear baluticc for a nueoemion of years post.? The proceeds of their cr#ps havo been hx:nt North and West as quickly as reali zed, or even before they wefe realised, to pay for provisions liiat should havo l>oen inude at home; and the littlo of clear profit that uiay have remained to a few has been more than absorbed b^ the busy agents (doubtless most of thnn lionet) of scores of swindling concerns yclept "life insurance companies," who, having invcigledftho unwary farmer in to "taking a policy," havo obtained com mand of hu future profits tusweep them oT to the headquarters of their com pa i > ies, generally out.ol tho State, without any return whatever during Shis life, wbii h is usually longer^thaif that of the | insurance company. It id not easy to imagine what u burthen this imposes upon t'.*e prosperi ty of a country, unless wo look closely into its operation. Suppose u hundred individuals settled upou un island, of whom twenty-five mako a clear annual profit of 8100 each, fifty keep their hetfdi level, and twenty-fivo Bink fil'ty duilars cueh. It is clear that besides making enough to loau '.o those who full behind, the little cummuuity will be gradually accumulating capital, and in terest growing easier from year to year. Rut the life insuraneo agent makes his adveut, and by his plausible failaciun. induces the more pr^pert'us twenty-fivo profits . Immediately all accumulation jjeascs, interest bceomes exorbitantly high, and"the first advcrse^scnaon which fulls upon tlie community overwhelms it with ruin, ns tlie past year has over whelmed us. What is the remedy ? There is 110110 other but patl-ncc, econo my and industry; tho rigid avoidance of all who would humbu'g us out of our meagre and hurd?carned profits, wheth or by the sale of ftoodeu nutmegs, patent seed corn, prize candy, or life insurance ; tlje fctrenuous effort to live independent ly at homo nnd to mako or savo'onough i>f superfluity for debts, taxes and neces vary expenditures. But these remedies cannot operate immediately ; "and we may confidently expect tho times to grow balder nntl yet harder until we can realize from tho ensuing ^subsistenee crop ; jind knowing^ho7certainty of the wind, wo should trim our sails accord ingly for tho storm.
