THE JOUKNAL." Thursday', January 21, 1809. KELIGIOUS. Rev. James McDowell has been preaching in tlio Presbyterian Church at this place for several days past, commencing last Friday evening. The thanks of our community arc certainly due to him J'ur the readiness with which lie has consented to continue his ministrations among us. It has seldom been our privilege to lisicn to a more- car-, npsf .mil interesting? divine, and we were MV*'" *"**" " * " O . ' glad to see so many io aficndance during the evenings of the week, in spito of the fatigues and cares of business.? Those who have heard him, will certainly remember, for many a day, the able and touching manner in which lie acts as an ambassador for God. The effects of his sermons n;uit be lastingand beneficial. Great and solemn truths uttered by a man who feels, and makes his hearers feel their importance, eaunot fall powerless to the ground. Those who staid away, have lost :t great opportunity. If Mr. McDowell continues to preach, wc hope our people will turn out generally to hear him. Wc hope lie may Javor our town with frequent visits. * " EST" Shall we have an Agricultural So" cicty in Kershaw ? What say the planters to having a meeting on the first Monday in February for the purpose of forming one ? INCOMPLETE LEGISLATION. The legislation of the Slate, under the new government, presents many new and anomalous features. It is apparently modeled after existing systems, but as a whole, 'does l ot seem to be derived from any one homogeneous source. The consequence is that in incorporating laws 0/Massachusetts and New York with existing laws of South Carolina into one body of jurisprudence, there necessarily results an imperfect piece of patchwork, not adapted (0 the w>nts of the community. For instance, the remedy by distress for rent has been abolished, and no remedy is left the landlord except that provided for the goo.orc.1 arc .IL-oc- '1'l.c -jvrC jtr-r-utjs lrliu % rent houses os a genera 1 ride, ore not property holders, but persons in bumble circumstances.

The landlord knowing this in advance, must cither demand security for the rcnfpin the first instance, or depend entirely upon the integrity of the tenant and his d.tily success hi hn-?uo<-s. In the present condition of the people, very few tenants can" give the vcfjtiircd security, and very few landlords are willing to rent their properly without it. The remedy hy distress was very seldom resorted to in practice heretofore, but its existence was a security to the landlord, operating to procure punctuality in tiie payment of the rents, and facilitating the poor in procuring houses -to shelter them. Of all other investments of money. that iu lauds and buildings ought to be rendered the most secure, and in all civilized countries, the laws have bccu so framed as to pvmotc that end. The large majority of the people in any country, must consist of those who own no lands and houses, yet they should have a roof to shelter them. Hut if there be no inducements to capitalists to build and rent bouses to the poor, bow are tlicy to be supplied ? The law of the Slate of Xcw Voile, after which this of ours is modeled, abolishes tho remedy by distress, but substitutes that by attachment. a rcmcdv more f?mnlc and quite as efficient. Our legislated s content themselves with abolishing the one remedy, in J substitu ing no other. TVe do rot consider t'uitour attachment'aw can he applied to the collection of rent in ordinary cases. Again, the laws have abolished imprisonment for debt. This is in accordance with the humanitarian sentiments of the age and meets with our entire approval. But", simply to relieve the unfortunate debtor, without providing the creditor any means of coercing the dishonest debtor to pay, is to offer a premium to fraud and to victimize the innocent, and generous creditor, whose property has j asscd into the pockets of the protected defaulter. I 1 ' " As the law row elands, a debtor might be a millionaire, live in a first class hotel, lavish thousands on his pleasures and pursuits, and yet snap bis fingers in defiance of the tailor whose clothes he wore. If his money is not invested in visible, tangible property, such as may lie levied under execution, there | for is no way of reaching him. The laws I of of other States where imprisonment ? r J?c debt has been abolished, provide otlicr means of making debtors dis- an, gorge their money to satisfy their just im debts, and the system is obviously aud 11' ruinously incomplete without them.? *'1( . . , Rfo Just in proportion as the creditor is jt^ afforded facilities for enforcing his dc- thi mands arc the facilities afforded the to poor to procure the necessaries and convcnicnees of life on credit, when the , _,i ^ lCllUJ IliL'iiu* iiru wuiii/iij;, vim f|j( law obstructing tlie <ollcciion of debts, vi< is at llie expense of those whose ncccssi- pt| ties force them at times to depend upon credit for their supplies. * That is but j ' a bastard humanity which cheats and {]< cajoles the poor,.by a legislation, appa- pe rcntly in flicir interest, but in rcaiity depriving them of the credit to which ... ce tlicir necessities compel them often to rc.-ort for food," raiment and shelter, tu Under these laws the rich only cau en- to joy the advantages of credit. The very class of all others to which it is wholly unncossary if not injurious. Let our m. legislature consider these things and tic give us better laws. * * P? to FEUTILIZEIi. ,U1 Tl Wc call attention of fanners and plan- :l]] Icrs to the advertisement of Messrs. ca I>au.m Bio., agents of Zell's Am MoMATED Sll I'KR-l'iJOSPIl ATE.
