Wl" bmimI mrttiav crisis first camp upon the country, the general impression was that it would quickly wear away without materially injuring is. It was thought that the rash speculators and gamblers iu imaginary values would be the only sufferers. But weeks have passed, and. still we are in a state of financial paralysis. .' Business is almost at a stand-stilly factories have been closed and many laborers discharged; large commercial houses have failed, and many, which were thought to be as firm as the everlasting granite, have been shaken almost to a fall; and gloomy apprehensions are entertained for the future. The crisis is serious, and far-reaching in its effects. Those who are wise, and have passed through the experience of previous panics> have been trvine to account for the present U ft one. The New York Tribune thrown the blame upon paper currency, and advises a return to gold as the basis of values. Paper money may be responsible so far as it produced a large volume of money to be used by reckless speculators, who took the inutge for the reality of wealth, but no further. As a proof of this, bank bills have not fallen, but have appreciated in value, aud all through the crisis the premium on gold has been declining. Property of all kinds is readily and eagerly sold for almost any kind of paper money. This is one feature of encouragemeut, because if our banks were failing, and their notes worthless, we might suppose that the large balance of trade against us had carried off the gold, and our condition would be much more serious than it is. The question is, what has become of the money ? and the answer to it explains the orisi9. The wild ventures of certain speculators in baseless seheines caused their fall. The failure of those . who were looked upon as the staunches! of men, frightened smaller people, and caused a rapid withdrawal of deposits from the banks The large mass of greenback currency must be in the country somewhere, and is, no doubt, hidden away by those who own it, and are afraid to part with ik The baaks all aay that they have a plenty of money, but still they do not pay it oat. This causes the stringency in money. What is the remedy ? The New York Rulletim .A high ? throws the whole blame of the panic upon Mr. Richardson, Secretary of the Treasury, who is pronounced hy it flagrantly incompetent for the duties of his office, and entirely ignorant of the causes and cure of the present troubles. When the panic first commenced he should have assisted the banks in paying their depositors, and when this timid- claw found that they could get their money on demand, they would soon hare ceased asking for it. This course would have calmed the storm at its inception. After matters had become more serious he should have offered the whole currency reserve in the Treasury, $44,000,000, to appease the clamor for cash. Instead of this he calmly says that the panic "is none of his funeral," tons tha huvine of I'nited SLntpx Vi.inda locks op the Treasury, and suffers the country to lose millious for want of a little money. Grave legal doubts are entertained as to the right of the Treasurer to use the Reserve fund, without the authority of Congress, but up to this time, neither Mr. R:?hardson nor President Grant have been troubled with these doubts. The Bullrtm therefore attributes bis inaction to stupidity and unreasoning stubbornness. The difficult problem for the Executive to solve is whether an inorease'of greenback circulation at present would not make mat ten worse. The volume of paper money is already large, and should be used by those who hold it. An increase of it might eventually cause another panic arising from its depreciation. The Government thereforo holds its hauds, and lets things take their own course. The oouotry must look to Congress for relief, and it seems to us that the President should have convened that body before this time in extra session to take into consideration the distress of the people. The nanic affects the DeoDle of the South by causing a decline in the price of cotton. This decline is the natural consequence of the fall in gold, the stagnation of trade in cotton fabrics, and the closing of the factoriee. When money gets easier and business retires, cotton must bring a better price.? The oountry cannot and will nut resume specie payments at tho present time. Aa Important Law. At its last regular session, the Legislature passed an act, which should be remembered at this time, when farmers are, or should be, settling with the merchants who have made advances to them. The act is No. 257, and is entitled " An Act to punish any person or persons who shall sell and convey any Real or Personal Property, on which a lien of any kind may exist, without givinflgiotice of such lien to the purchaser or purchasers." It provides thnt if any persons shall, wilfully and knowhujly, sell and convey any real or personal property on which a lien exists without giving notice of the lien to the purchaser, such' person shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and, on conviction thereof, shall be imprisoned for a term of not less than ten days, nor more ! than three years, and be fined not less than J ten dollars, nor more than fivo thousand dol-, lars, or either or both, in the discretion of; the Court. The intention of this law is to punish any one who, having given a lien upon his crops to obtain advances for agricultural purposes, shall dispose of his cotton, or other crops, clandestine///, with intent to defraud I the person who holds the lien. Also, if any one gives a mortgage upon horses, mules, cattle, wagons, or any kind of personal property, and afterwards clandestinely disposes of them, with the intention of avoiding such mortgage, or if he mortgages land to secure a debt, and then sells without notifying the purchaser of the existence of the mortgage, even although such mortgage of Real or Perso/uilproperty may be recorded in the Register's Office of the County (/), this law will punish hiui in proportion to his offence. Again, the wages of the laborer is a lien upon the crops made by him, and if the employer disposes of them without paying this lien, he also comes under the condemnation of this law. In order to constitute the misdemeanor, under this act, the sale must be made with a full knowledge that the lien exists, and is unsatisfied, and wilfully, that is, with the deliberate intention of avoiding the lien, or defrauding the purchaser of the property., The"only difficulty with the act is, as it seems to us, that it works backwards. The offence should be the attempt to defraud the holder of tho lien, and not merely the purchaser from the man who gives the lien. As the law now stands, if the debtor gives notice to the purchaser, of the lien, and se cures his connivance in the fraud, the creditor is without remedy. The Legislature seems to have supposed that if notice of the lien were given, no one would purchase without seeing that the mo* ney was applied to the extinguishment of the encumbrance, and, no doubt, in the majority of instances, such would be the case As a general rule, the purchaser of property is protected by the Clerk's books, where all mortgages and liens are recorded; or, if no rocord of the lien exists, a reasonable caution will protect him. OnA *" ' ^ A ??A gaged property is disposed of secretly, and a fraud is thus practiced upon those who have made advances to assist iu agricultural operations. This the Legislature intended to remedy, but has only partially succeeded. It con* corns honest men that ample protection should be afforded against fraud. The Homestead Law. Judge Bond recently decided, in the United States Court, at Richmond, Va., that all questions of Homestead under the statutes of Bankruptcy must be docided by the law us it stood, when proceedings in Bankruptcy were instituted, and therefore that the larger exemptions allowed by the act of Congress of 1871, only apply to cases commenced since its enactment. This is an important decision, and will, no doubt, stand, as it seems to be the most reasonable construction of the law. The point has been made in the United States Courts in this State,' that the amendment of the Bankrupt Law would allow the larger exemptions of our State Constitution in all coses which had uot been ended, although they might have been commenced before 1871. Judge Bond's decision goes exactly to such cases, and settles the point so far as ho is concerned. Legislature. Two bills have been introduced into the House of Representatives looking to the arrangement of the public debt The first makes no provision for the fraudulent Conversion Bonds, and thus reduces the debt to less than ten millions of dollars. It proposes to issue new bonds and stocks for those representing this amount at forty per cent, of their face value, and to levy un annual tax of three mills to pay principal and inerest. The second bill proposes to scale the unquestionably valid bonds old and new at fifty per cent, of their face value, and the f^nn/liilont Pnnvnraitin HhiuIh fit lliirlv i?nr ""uu",v"" ?? ? j recent. The first bill should pass, Our honest creditors should be paid all that we can af. ford, but of fraudulent claims we should not pay one cunt. The second bill proposes to pay thirty per cent, upon lionds which every one knows have no foundation in justice; while only fifty per cent is allowed to the holders of claims, some of which, uro Worth, justly, their face value. The indications are, that neither of the bills will pass. The feeling is so strong against the fraudulent Convcrson Bonds, that they will most probably b? repudiated, and | then the debt be left in ftalu quo. H. H. Kimpton has been before a com-1 mitteo of the Legislature, standing an ex- aj animation in reference to the Agricultural College Land Scrip. Thfc, he says, was ty used in the purchase of State Bonds to the 0j amount of $191,000. These bonds were hypothecated to secure a loan of $57,540, and sacrificed by a forced sale: but can be s< n V redeemed by the State upon the paymont of the loan with interest at 7 per cent. p Whittemore, in the Senate, and Hurley, V in the House, are leading quite a savage on- V slaught upon the Governor, founded on h's 0 abuse of the power of appointment and re- ? moval of officers, and there are strong indi- s cations of a split in the party. li ' I The Bank or the State. s The Supreme Court of the United States has decided that the Bills of the Bank of the State of South Carolina, issued undor the . flinrfer nf 1812. are receivable for taxes.? 1 The effect of this'decision will be an addition to the debt of the State of from $600,- ^ 000 to $1,000,000. The Charlentou Election. - * The Commissioners of Election have de* cided that the last election for the municipal officers of the city of Charleston was lcgnl( and valid : that although there were irregularities, there was no evidence of a fraudulent intent, and therefore that the election must stand. The people of Charleston have decided to take the election into the Courts. Grave charges of the grossest fraud are made, and if one half of them are established, we do not see how the election can stand before a just tribunal. A Torn of Ibe Tide. The Republican party has lost ground ] greatly in the elections held throughout the ' country in the last few days. Gen. James ! L. Kemper has been elected Governor of : Virgiuia by over 22,000 majority, a large j conservative gain, and the State is entirely I in the hands of the Conservatives. The Democratic ticket has triumphed in Mnry- . land by a majority of about 20,000; the Legislature is largely Democratic. In Kansas the regular Republicans have ( been defeated by what is known as the .... * ''opposition. In Minnesota, Dike, the Farmers' candi I date for Treasurer, is elected, and the Re publican majority in the Legislature is largely reduced. The Farmers' party has most probably | carried the State of Illinois. ( The Reformers have a large majority iu the Legislature of Wisconsin. ^Wr O.yulllKH 1 OIOJUI IUJ III ?Ta?IM1 11 U3C If is la-gely reduced; the Democrats have ' elected eleven Senators and sixty Assembly- , men.

Editors: On the Cheraw road, near Little I'inetree Creekj a small stream p emerges frdni the premises of Maj. DcSaiuvsure, and crosses the road. Its natural chan- | nel is by a straight line to the creek. Within t a few years, it has been turned directly down the road, and hus succeeded in tearing up the roaa-bed, rendering it dangerous to travel by night, and, and difficult at any time. A single hand would restore the i stream to its own channel two hour's la- j linr t\r* lnuj -mil it uouli] tiovnr tnnfo nond ano. cial attention. It lias already cost the town much money, and until diverted as suggest- ? cd, will continue to be a heavy charge.? Should a carriage be broken, or a horse'be ' killed, or a human life be lost, in the deep { ravines rent in the road, the consequences ( might be very damaging to tax-payers. Vkrbum Sat. Columbia S.
