Delinquent Sul?Hcril>orH.
Thank heaven, we have not many to whom
this caption will apply, hut we cannot forbear
saying to those to whom it does, that they
should call to mind the advice of Saint
Paul, " Owe no man anything." In the second
place, we beg to remind them that it
costs something to run a newspaper, and every
little helps. In the third place, we have
given them the means of passing pleasantly,
many hours of every week', and we would
like now to spend a few happy moments in
counting our money, In the fourth place,
cotton is coming in very rapidly?nearly
" ^ *? j-ii? j
every body Has money, ana iwu uunuis uuua-lmlf
is not enough to brenk or set any man
up in business; though fifty or one hundred
similar sums would go a great way towards
that end. In the fifth place, we know that
that silent though powerful monitor, the conscience,
is even now making an effort to
cause delinquent subscribers to call arrd settle,
and that "still, small voice" should, at
all times, be listened to and obeyed. Sixthly
and lastly, ice leant the monr>/) and no
mistake about it!
Short Weights in Cotton.
We publish this week, a letter from a correspondent,
saying that the short weights of
cotton between here and the City of Charleston
are owing to a wetting of the staple by
the packers. Of the truth of this, we cannot
say, though we do not at all moan to call into
question the statement of our correspondent.
The following article from the News, of
Tuesday, gives still another phase to the
matter. We publish the article, and cotton
? j:?..
buyers should govern tncmscives accuruuigly.
It has been customary in this place, to
deduct only two pounds from each bale,
but if the Charleston merchants are correct,
and it be no Unusual circumstance that a
difference of nine pounds exists between the
weights here and there, then it would seem
to be nothing but proper and right, that the
deduction should be greater. Jhc following
is the article referred to:
The Camden Journal, of last week, gives
expression to what it terms a universal complaint
among the country merchants of the
shrinkage in the weight of their cotton .vhen
sent to Charleston for sale, and cites the case
of one lot of fourteen bales, in which the
difference between the recorded weight in
Cauiden and the returns of the sworn weighers
in Charleston, amount to one hundred
and twenty pounds. Unfortunately, however.
the annoyance of which our Camden
friends complain is the result of a simple law
of jiaturp. which is quite as much beyond
the control of the Charleston factor as of the
Camden shipper. The cotton men of Cliarlrtotnn
nil no-ree that a depreciation in tho
*v",w" **" **n -----weight
of cotton between those two points,
averaging less than nine pounds per bale, .is
by no niqans an unusual occurrence. The
effect of a dry, hot sun upon a bale ofcotton,
which had become slightly dampened over
night, would, they say, cause in a single day
fhlly as much depreciation ns is complained
of, and a difference of five or six pounds
between two weighings, within a few hours
of each other, is very common. The best
possible proof, however, that mistakos cannot
pass uncorrected, is that every bale of
cotton received in Charleston is weighed by
sworn weighers twice during its stay in this
city?once when received on the wharf, and
once when it is sold or shipped. Any remarkable
disparity between these two weighings
would at once be seen and rectified,
and thus it is next to impossible that a bale
should pass through Charleston without get
ting its due weight.
Register in Bankruptcy.?Col E. M.
Scabrook lias been appointed Register in
Bankruptcy fur the First Congressional Dis
trict of South Carolina, and also United
States Commissioner, with his headquarters
at Suinter. We are glad to note that these
appointments have fallen upon so worthy a
personage.

thousand copies of the Scriptures had been
distributed in twenty-five counties of the
State within the last year, one-half of which
had been given to colored people who can
read. That since 1865 ninety thousand i
copies of the Scriptures and portions of tho

that their generous offers of kindness were

fifty-two different languages and dialects;
were distributed in Europe, Aaia and Africa,

being called upon, addressed the Society at
considerable length, and in an interesting
manner, upon the many wonderful peculiarities
of the Bible, such as its antiquity,
its preservation and inspiration. The difference
in its composition from that of ot^er
books. The unity of its design in the wonderful
diversity of its mattor and manner.
Its truth as to religion. The fall of man in
Adam, and the recovery of it in Jesus
Christ, and by way of showing what it had
done, contrasted Europe' with Africa, and
the condition of Europe at different periods,
according as it enjoyed or was denied a free
circulation and cmbraoement of the Bible.
Showing the wonderful and beneficent ef*
fects that had ever followed its introduction
and cordial reception in any country.
After this address a general invitation to

Letter from General Bntler.
We are permitted to publish the following
letter of General Butlf.r to a friend in this
place. Its suggestions are Well woTthy of
careful consideration; its genera^ tone is
healthy, and its eff^t pleasing.
Coi.umdia, Oct. 17, 1872.
My Dear :
I am nfraid that you have thought me remiss
in not having written you earlier?and so
I have been, but I was so much discouraged by
the indifference and apathy of our people, and
so disappointed at the small attendance of the
the Executive Committee and County Chairmen,#
that I have had no heart to write anything about
otir political affairs.
Of the forty-seven whose presence I request
ed for consultation, fourteen corao from tho Executive
Committee, and nine County Chairmon.
These did not feel authorized to take any action,
and the result was a complete failure to
suggest any line of policy, or adopt any course
for the guidance of the conservative strength of
the State.
I was in favor doing something to keep the
white people together, and I fear that our inj
tense passivity will have upon them a demoralizing
influence. Oftico holding has become so
much of atrarfein these latter days, by which
large sums of money have been made, that the
avaricious seek place for the money to be made,
and make the trusts imposed a matter not deserving
of donsideratiou. . T-j^
Thejconsequcnce is, that the idle, the thrifless,
the indolent and extravagant, resort to means to
reach official station, from which honorable men
turn with disgust. This is certainly true in the
main, in South Carolina, and prevails to an
alarming degree In nthar States, whara better
things might have been looked for. Money,
money, is the great lever which prizeB men into
office. Intellect, oxpericnce, worth, character,
go for nought, when opposed by money. Look
at Pennsylvania.
1 Generally speaking, that sterling integrity
which ht9 hitherto distinguished the public servants
in this State?that almost sacred regard
for public trusts?UP to 'tis time, been
preserved among the white people of South Carolina.
This virtue is one of the many offsprings
of the old regime, which is worth preserving?
and my apprehension is,that unless this tendency
to, speculate ;with official position^ its peraistentiv
and unceasinjzlv antagonized and combat
ted, we will drift inter that Very reprehensible
and dangerous habilfef looking to Office simply
89 a means of growing rich by prostituting the
advantages which it confers, into the most shameless
speculations and jobs.
I sincerely trust that there is virtue enough
left with the people to arrest this inevitable
forerunner of despotism. It is not very encouraging
to contemplate the future of South Caro- .
lino, with the political power of the State wielded
by universal suffrage and universal ignoranoc,
nor is the prospect brightened when we
consider that the evils which beset us appear to
be sanctioned by a majority of the northern people.
Evils not only sanctioned but actually fostered
and sustained' If they are sustained as a
measure of punishment upon us, then it would
seem that their thirst for vengeance is insatiable.
If sustained becnuse of the demoralization
and corruption, and henoe, active sympathy of
the people themselves, then the country is in
danger of being wrecked upon the jhoals o f a
rapidly increasing atrcam of corruption
I have always nad great faith and confidence
in the power and will, and purpose of the American
people to right themselves of their own
motion. The masses, both South and North,
have always evinced such an unwavering, abiding
faith in the "greatness, stability and power
of the civilization jand liberty( peculiarly, their
own,) which they are steadily developing.?
Knowledge and education have beep, aud are
being diffused so rapidly all over the country?an
unmuzzled press is progressing so cffctively,in
influence and power, that it would appear
almost impossible to build a despotism upon
such a development?and yet, wc see this
very people, at the same timothat they are boasting
of the greatness and enlightenment, and
even glory of American liberty and civilization,
a majority of them quietly acquiescing in the
most, dangerous assumptions of power, the most
reckless disregard of trusts, the most flagrant
and notorious official corruption, by the governments
which their ballots have established, not
only acquiescing in, but glorifying andupholding
them. What does it mean ? And where arc
wc drifting ?
It is aa bad in Pennsylvania as it is in South
Carolina, and New York is very 'little botteT.
The party which has the most money, and is capable
of the greatest frauds carries, the day.
I hare extended the limits of this letter far
beyond what I intended. I cannot agree with
those who thought the success of the Tomlinson
ticket the best thing for us. The backers of the
movement were generally men who were so extremely
distasteful to our people, who have
dono nothing bat plunder, oppress, misrepresent
nod slander them, that it was really expecting
too much of them to ask their support. I
could not and dfd not support or vote for either,
because 1 did not think there was any choice
between them. Very truly yours,
M. C. BUTLER.
For The Journal.
How It ia, in [answer to "Why is it
Thus?
Mr. Editor.?In your last number of the Journal,
I noticed an article headed "Why is it thus?
and why is there such a difference between
Camden and Charleston in cotton weights. For
example a difference of one hundred pounds loss
on a lot of fourteen bales of cotton between
Charleston and this place. I do not doubt the
Public Weigher of Charleston, nor do I doubt the
honesty of ourCotton Merchants in their weights,
for are not their scales tested by our Town Inspector
of weights and measures, who is also
sworn to do his duty ? No, sir, the'fault is hot
witli our Merchants, neither does it rest with
the public weigher of Charleston. The blame
rests with the Cotton Pucker. I have been informed
by reliable parties that some packers use
water to sprinkle their cotton to make it
pack easy?indeed I have seen it done myself.
Now, sir, there is at lenst a gallon of water used
on every bale (sometimes more.) In a lot of
fourteen bales we would have fourteen gallons of
water. One gallon of water would weigh say
nine pounds, we would have one hundred and
and twenty six pounds in tho lot of fourteen
bales.
Now, this cotton is hauled to Camden and sold
before tho water has timo to evaporate, and a
bale of cotton will weigh, say four hundred
and fourteen pounds. Now, perhaps this cotton
is kept in a warm store, wnerctneair can strike
into it, and tben it is hauled to the depot in the
hot sun, will then lay out on the depot platform
until it is ready for the cars: it is then put up
in airy box cars, takes some time to get to .
CharlcBtan; when it does arrive, it may lie
there a day or two before it can bo drayeel
to the purchaser. It is then hauled through
a dozen streets, and then landed at the public
scales. During all this period, our fourteen
pounds of water has evaporated, together
with any other dampness there may be about the
cotton. Now, can any marvel at a loss of one
hundred and twenty pounds on a lot of fourteen
bales of cotton, when there is one hundred and
twenty eight pounds of sprinkled water in the
let, and perhaps, a few pounds of other dampness
1 Our city friendB cau do nothing
in this matter. The matter lies with the cottou
packer. Let him. discontinue tiic temperance upplications,
and you will lind the antidote certain
and the remedy sure. Our merchants say that
tlioy have no objection to tho cotton packers
using watos in packing their cdtldit. provided
1
they inform them how m?y fW? of -wa*?? ?
they use on a bale. " Let tu have peace."
