SOUTHERN STATE FINANCES.
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.

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.
