Now, the qnention for the Sooth la, whether to reject this laat opportunity, end thereby okallenge Congress to do Its worst, or, by aceepting In good faith the proffered terms, put a end to seven years of strllb, save what ! left, and regain nt least, If not political power, a large measure ef political rights. The fruits of tho policy of the past seven years are seen la the contrast between the terms of settlement offered by President Lincoln on the 4th of March, 1801, In his first Inaugural address, and tho terms now proffered by Congress in the Act of Jnly, 1807. If Lin coin's peeee offering had been aoccpted, the wealth, prosperity and power of the Booth would bare remained uaimpored, and all the eaccitses of a long war saved. Acquiescence now In the measures provided t>y Con free* to restore tranquility and establish legal State Governments In the conquered territory, is an obligation resting upon all who have taken the oath of allegianoe and re. eeived aasnesrty. For at meet It ean only be said that (he messages of Congress impose upon the vanquished, the Institutions of tho victors. And if it be true that antagoslstieal Institutions rnhde us enemies In war?then without homogeneous institutions we may not, even in peaee, bo friends. It stay be aaaumed that no disability will be removed from these who resist, oppose, or discourage reconstruction, in e?ety State whete the terms offered by Congress shall he rejeetedi ft lb frisks that banoeforth political power Will be altogether and finally remitted to the hands of those who have been ever loyal to the Union. By the rojoction of the terms of reconciliation now offered, tho prcmotors o? discord will, sooner or lator, find themselves without nossossions. without franchises, and no longor the peer of the bnmblest citison of the republic?and then will the rebellion hare worked out upon ita unrepentant authors it* own impreaelve and signal retribution. The partioalar grounds of oomplalnt suggested In your remonstrance remain to be considered : You take exception to Paragraph VII of General Orders dS, which declares that certain contracts if hereafter made by dealers in intoxicating liquors shall be doomed and treated within this Military Districts, as against pub lie policy ; also to Paragragh IX, Qeneral Orders Si, abolishing distress for ront- and substituting in lieu thereof certain liens; also to General Orders 10, staying the remodies for tfce enforcement of certain classes of dsbts.? It is to be inferred from your statements that you regard the revocation of these orders as essential to the interests of these engaged in commerce and trade. It is not always possible to ohtend to eomtncroe tbe facilities most desired by merchantsIt should he remembered that while it is the provisos of commerce to direct the materia' resources and energies of tbe oountry into channels of enterprise that nourish material and moral development, yet ootametee itself is dependant upon domestic seeurity and oonfi den045, and the productiveness of labor In tha department* of agrlcftltafo and manufactures. So far from oomplaining of temporary inconveniences, those whose fortunate privilege It la to eonfrdl the currency and Capital of (bo country, should ho willing to forego other peculiar prirtliges for the sake of promoting the prodaotkms of labor, from which the profits of commerce are mainly derived. Tot object to.Paragraph VlL of (General Orders No. U, because certain Northern, Western and foreign distillers had, previous to the ofdetj Consigned liquors for sale within this Military District| that the eustolna duties on foreign liquors, and the excise Us on domestic liquors, had been paid, and yon regard it as an act of liOnstlbo to thoee parties to 44 suddenly withdrawn all protection from said property against fire, and also to protect the owners of said property from collecting their just debts at common law." Ton will find, by referriug tot hs paragraph in qusetioD, that it has not the retrospective operation complained of.? It does not intcrfcro with contracts of sale, storage, or Insurance already made when the ardto wont into operation, nor does it prevent the sale of such liquors by aproperly lie meed dealer, who eoafonas to the prescribed Hiditiw for thist raffia.

Qen?ral Order* No. 19, staying certain remedies for the oollcction of debt, it will bepfupet first, to notieo your itatMmt that th* Leglslata re of 8outh Carolina passed a law for th* am* purpose, aad which, a* 70a obocrr*, waa declared by th* Court of Appeal*, unconstitutional. Thl* olrcnmitano* ha* groat weight In th* promulgation of the order in question.? Th* action of th* Legialatur* waa regarded a* proof that in th* belief of the people at large, th* public safety demanded such a measure.? The Major-General Commanding was untrammelled by provision* of tb* so-called Stat* Constitution, adopted in contemplation of events quite different from the actual situation; ho could not fall to see that many thousands of fhmllles. In deep misfortune and destitution* wore menaced with ntter ruin by the inconsiderate aad cruel pressure of creditor*, nor conld he, without being Inssnslbl* to th* general appeal of a suffering people, refase to afford seme measure of adequate relief. At tb* time when the Ordors No. 10 were issued, the people of th* Carol inas, and mora especially of South Carolina, were axposmd to overwhelming disaster from th* seisnre and sale, under Judicial ptoses*, of all th* means they possessed. Their scanty stores of previsions, their worn-out hou?ob*old furniture, and their few implements of husbandry, saved from the wreck of tho industry of tho country, would bars availed nothing to creditors, yet were ef inestimable value to the population.? Time and opportunity given, Industry would recover from paralysis, despondency would be overcome by fortitude, the oraditor would be ultimately paid, and the sad condition of an Impoverished people ameliorated. To arouse and stimulate the energies of the people?to Inspire the hosbandmen with confidence that he would reap the fruits of his labor?to assure 'him that he might rescue himself and family from want?and to recall from haunts sf diesapn tion and idleness those who had been driven thero by despair?would contribute much to the public peace, security and order the Commanding General is expected to maintain. In the sucoees of thoso measures no interest is more coneernod than the commerce of the counlty. You have yourselves described the condition of affairs that existed. You observe that " at the opening of the Courts after the wan the people in the country commenced racing each other. The debts aro nearly all local and you add that " the Northern cities and Charleston wore scarcely represented, nor have tbey since to any extent pushed their claims at lawand you add the remarkable and significant statement that a largo portion of the debts suod in this Military District are for snms not over twenty dollars. You maintain that had a few oxocution* been pushed, the wholo debt could have been paid with a very small sum of money, that A owed B twenty dollars; B owed C twenty dollars ; and so on to the end of tho alphabet; but it is very evident that twenty dollars wonld have paid the wholo of the indobtednesa." A better argument for the stay law conld no' have been adduoed ; for all that was requirotl to roalite tho easy modo of liquidation yon have elucidated wo* time, so that these interchange* might take place. It is precisoly this the stay law affords, leaving as the pleating assurance from to high an authority, that within a brief period the financial difficulties of the State may be resolved with a sum of money insignificantly small. lict ns see, on the other hand, what would have been the effect of refusing this allowanco of time. When Gonoral Order 10 was promulgated, there were pending in tho courts of the State forty thousand suits for debt By the iastoenstts there were only forty thousand white voters in the State. Allowing the sum of fifty dollars In each ease, as the amount of costs, fees, expenses, lost time and depreciation of values by hurried liquidation, yoti have two millions of dollars as the loss in effeeting, by litigation, a settlement, eapable, according to yonr statement, of being effected with twenty dollars?through some peculiar proeess known to the Board of Trade in Charleston. Ton proceed to observe that " if every exeontion has been pressed, the Aggregate Wealth of each District or County would not have been lessened, the property wonld merely hare changed local ownors." Ruroly It is not a matter of small Interest to the merchants oi Charleston, that the property of the farmery mechanics and tradesmen should pass into the hands of IsWyerS, constables?and the vultures that flock to judicial sales. So far as relates to the local transae lions of Charleston, yonr statement that creditors residing there had not sought to enforce their elaime, shows that the stay law has not Injur* ed the business of the oity; nor is any iqjury likely to be produced worthy of comparison with tho manifest facllitiee afforded to agrioul tare, from wkleh the trade of Charleston derives all its thrift. Y u will not fail to observe that the sue pension of remedies is confined to causes ol action aruing between the lUth of lieeent ber, 1860, and the 15th of May, 1808 ; that after the expiration of the temporary atay of proceeding* fur twelve month*, exoen tiooe for debta oontraoted before the wai ean be enforoed without bindranee; and ' that aa to all tranaaotiona ainee May 18th, 1888, all the reniadlea afforded by the Uwi of the United Btatea and of South Carolina not only remain intaet, but they are invigorated and reinforeed by military regnla' 1 tiona and tribunal* It will therefore b* aeon tbat partem aeeking to invent capital and abgage it bnaineee enterprise* within tbb Military ' Diftrict are entitled to all the remediea ear have free aeeosa to all the Iribnnala thai belong to a nettled order of socie.y ; *n? . that it i* only those transaction* ine'dent t< the lieor let* of a lonp war ntvl ' > 'he o!

That this is a mistaken notion, we think we can prove by a little piece of personal experience. When the proprietor of the Enquirer was superintending the making up of the paper for publication two weeks ago, a vacancy of two lines occurred iu ono of tho advertising columns. After trying iu vain to shift tho advertisements so as to fill up the hialue, it occurred to him that a few blackbeirios wore needed in his homo department, and he determined to make known his wants. In accordance with this idea, the following modest little notioc was inserted : " BtacKBEiftuKS WANfsD.?Apply at the Enquirer Office." This was placed at the foot of a column, no attention being called to it in tho list of now advertisements. Yet this obscure statement produced an effect as magical as if a trumpet bad been rounded through the land. It was proclaimed to the remotest corners of tho District ftkfit KUrlfliprriAfl *nrf< wantp/l nml Mnr>klii>r. rice eimo; the people responded to the appeal.

You have been watched for a long time; a cer tain class of you; aod it is |)laio enough you are laying plans to cheat somebody. You intend to sell chaff for wheat, and thefe is dangef that sofhe of the foolish " gudgeons " will be sadly taken in. It may not be yont fault that you be* long to the 44 one Idea party n?that the ingle idea of getting a husband is the only one which engrosses much of your lime or attention. Your venerable mother of Eden memory, was called a 44 help for man,w and you are looking for a man to help you; to help you live in the half idle, half silly way which you have commenced. Men who are worth having want women for wives.? A bundle of gew gaws with a string of flats and quavers, sprinkled cologne and set in a carmine saucer?this is no help for a man who experts to raise a family of boys and girls and veritable bread and meat. The piano and the lace frame are well in their places, and so are ribbons and frills and tinsels, but you can'! make a dinner of the former, nor a bed blanket of the latter. And awful as tbe idea nuiy seem to you, both dinner and bed blanket are neocessary to domestio enjoyment. Life has its realities as well as its fancies, but you make it all a matter of decoration, remombering the tassels and curtains, forgetting the bedstead. Suppose a young mas of good sense and of course good prospects, to be lookiog for a wife, what chance have you to be chosen ? You may cap him, or trap him, to catch hiin, but how much better to make it an object for him to catch you 1 Render yourself worth catchiog, and you will need no shrewd mother or managing brothers to help you find a market. How to Diminish Litigation.?Tho Round Table, discussing law reform, makes a pointed suggestion that all contracts of puro credit> wherein one man willingly trusts another, be taken out of the Courts by being dcclafod unlawful. This would effect a positive good by reducing tno mass of litigation at loast ouc?,.ir ti,. Coses of fraud would bo fowor than they are now. In the first place every one would se? loot his agents and bin debtors With more care > > in tho second placo fiduciary agents would bo better paid, because of a general anxiety to got the best; in the third placo, agents and debtors would bo mote faithful, because want of fidelity to a trust would be punished by society with romor?elc?8; unforgiving cruelty.? Society is instinctively unmerciful to sins which injure it, and wliioh are not punishod, or cannot bo reached by the laws?as witness its treatment of fallon woman. Character would have a higher pecuniary value than it has now, to the groat improvement of tho moral tone of society. Many a rich rogue* now trurted only because of his woalth, would find hiinsolf powerless to command a dollar on more credit; on tho other band, many an honest man, now scraping hard for a living, wonld find his servieos in ready demand at good pay* So far from increasing tho number of frauds' tho leaving of credit to regulaU itself and tho enforcement of its own eonlracts would, at the same time that it lossened tho mass of litigation, improvo the moral tone of. society by Kivinsc honest men a more caual chance with rogues then they now have?in fact, by putting them above the fogitcs in oredit and in power. Wnirn on Black Sup rem act.?Tho New York Herald concludes an article as follows " The wholo issue in tho South dopondi upon tho spirit in which thosolaWs of reconstruction are applied. If tho restrictions againfj rebels are rigorously enforced, While tho negroes, Without question, arc freoly admitted to the suffrage, as they have been so far, the negroes will rulo in the work of re-organiss tion and send whom thoy please to Congress If, on the other hand, tho restrictions agains the Southern whites are somowbat relaxed and the requirements to suffrage are faiirty applied to the blacks, the white maijority; whrr< it exists in any Southern State, will be brought into action, and white ascendancy will bo thi result. \fe believe, too, that under this system, Southern reeonstruetion may be so fairly accomplished as to compel even the radicals ol Congress to accept it; for If the idea of universal suffrage has now gone so far that i| cannot be arrested, that other idoa of a goneral amnesty is close behind. If Jeff. Davis on the bail volunteered by leading radicals (tgn bo turned loose, tfntely we need no longei delay in lotting all the smaller fry of tho re bullion go scot-free.

Virginia.?The list of registered to tore, thus far, in the noble old, cyramou wealth of Virginia, show* thiit she is yet a white mss'i State. The Richmond Enquirer has carefully compiled a list of the registered soters in forty, five. Counties, which giro ah aggregate of nearly 34,000 tothrs, and, To these Counties, the white majority is nearly 10,000. It is also to he noted that this list embraces the leading populous cit* ies of the Statte?Richmond, Petersburg, Norfolk, Alexandria, Sc., all of which gave large negro majorities. Of the forty live Conn'ies, thirty-one gave white majorities, and the Richmond Enquirer believes that the full returns from the entire State will exhibit something like a similar proportion of the two races. This is gratifying intelligence, for although some of the whites registered may be of the Hunnicutt stripe, yet it is pretty certain that the conservatives of the State will have the control, and thus remove the apprehenT si on that the political intriguers dna mischief makers would csrry the Old Dominion into the fold of the political agitators, who have been incessantly at work among her people. Shotild the hopes entertained of the fiolitical complexion of the remaining Counties be realized, the result will be bailed as a favorable omen throughout the South. Nil dttpcrandum. - >s> Tiik Exciiakob ot Prisoners.?The telegraphic despatch from Oen. Grant to Gen. Butler, in August, 1804, is reproduced in the New Yoik Tiibune, of Wednesday, as forming part of Gen. Butler's report to the committee of Con grecs in relation to the exchange of prisoners. The Tiibune says: * In August, the rebels offered to renew the exchange, man for man. Gen. Grant then telegraphed the following important order : " It is Lard on our men held in Southern prisons not to e* change them, but it is humanity to those lefl in the rnnlcs In finlit nnr Kai. ? -ft? tie*. Every roan released en parole, or otherwise, becomes an active soldier against us at once either directly or indirectly. If wo commence a system of exchange which liberates all prisoners taken, we have to fight on till the whole South is exterminated. If we hold those caught, they amount to no more than dead men. At this particular time, to release all rebel prisoners North would ensure Sheraton's defeat, and would compromise out- safety li6re." This is a clear avowal of a policy, and appears to relieve the Confederate authorities of the responsibility which it has been attempted to fasten on them, of refu&iug to make an exchange. . [Phanxi. OaiotN op "Yankee Doodle."? Mr. Bryant, of the Evening Post, who is traveling in Spain, gives the following curious story. " I have mentioned the Ba?ques, and I have an incident to relate which cons nects them curiously enough, with our own country. Some time since, when Mr. Perry, Secretary of the American Legislation at Madrid, was in one of the Barque provinces, he heard a baftd playing their old national airs. The Basques hAve preserved whatever is pe culiar to thein, their language, their customs, and many cf their political rights, from the earliest period in which they are knowD to history ; their : national music is claimed to l>e of the . same antiquity. After the band had played several other airs, it struck up 11 4 Yankee I>oodle,' the very tune, in ev erv note, which is so familiar to Araer* i ican ears. Mr. Perry immediately > claimed it as our national air. 4 It it - one of our old tunes,' said a gentlemat to whom he spoke, 4 and I can convince 1 you of the fact.
