GAILLAlUD, ESQ. He Upholds the ConsoidMWon Adb au Accopted by the Democratii Party as Binding in Law. From tle News aul Curier. The subject of debate in the Housie being the report of the bond commission, section third, advocat ing the repudiation of bonds ex changed for fraudulently detached Coupons, was rold., Mr. G.tillard, of Fairfield, took the floor in favor of striking out the sec tion, and for over an hour held the attention of the House, while lie de .livered what was really a nasterly effort. He started out by stating that there wore grounds whicl should influence every member oi the House to strike out not only the section under discussion, bul every soction in the resolution. H would, ho said, cast not one word of reflection upon the commission. Th< House had imposed upon them c responsibility which they had dis charged faithfully and ably in all respects, Having thus discharged their duty, lie saw no reason wh3 the commission itself should not vote to sustain the Consolidatior Act as a finality, if that course -waf satisfactorily showed to be the only safe and honorable adjustment ol the debt. They were not invested with any plenary power& to doter inine what portion of thl debt should be paid, and what rejected 1 but simply to report the facts ak they found them, and leave the do cision of the matter to the General Assembly. Mr, Gaillard then went on to show that it was to discovet the truth, or falsity, of the rumore then afloat concerning the iseiuing of duplicate ail f -ged bonds by the Republ o 'ials, that the commission h been, appointed, together Oith an investigation intc what bonds were atithorized to bE issued under the Con'solidation Act itself. The commission having discharged its duty in these respects, the report which they had presented to the General Assembly showed, in substance and essence, that the Consolidation Act had been full) complied with. Having thus touched upon the preliminary facts connect ed with the great subject before him, Mr Gaillard went on to sho that tbo House should ABIDE BY TWE coNsoLInATION AT for the following reasons, each o which lie elaborately illustrited and argued : 1irpt, because it -was i compromise with croditors at fifty cents on tho dollar of conflicting, doftbtful and frauduilent claimna against the State of South Carolida The very essence and spirit of sunl a compre-mise, and the only induce ment that could have effected ar agreement with the creditors, wam that it should be0 final and bona /&de If there had beeni no suspicion o: frau'd and irregularity oiv the ona sides and no understanding~of a final and honorable settlemen~t on the other, there could have been nc compromise. The people of Soutl Carolina were rejoiced at, the set tlement. daily press' spoke oun almost iu Inusy in terms 0; satisfaction, and the cr'editors cama forward and eurrendered fifty pea cent. of their claims, upon the dis tinct understanding that they would be made secure of the e he: h df. It was folly to- talk of strik ing out this or that, section, when the peopvle of South Carolina were B OUND BY EvERY TIE moral, legal equitale, to strand by that Consolidation Act as a fina: settlement and a final and henorabh agreement betweet herself and her creditors. Becondly, The IHouse should abide by the settle meet of the act becmtse it was con esummated by the competent au thority ol the State at that timei because the compromise was effoet ed- by the sovereignty of Soutta Carolina and was announced to the world by her best people as a Anal settlement of her debts. It would not do to say that the act was passe ecn by tbose who~ wore not the rep regentatives of thet people,. and such wVas-not. the principleaupon~ which the Hone should approach a mnat ter fraughbt withysongeh of thE weal oX'woo ofu~South.y Carolina. They who passed thle act weroinvest, b with fttllande absolutes powver to ooinnmate It; and jnat as the nniO ple had lived under the constitution framed by them, adld just as they had, year after year, obeyed the laws passed by tho, so were they equally bound to abide by the sOt. tlement of the State debt, a settle molt concurred in by the whole people, and hailed by them as their salvation at a time when the burdeu of taxation was too heavy to carry. He then went on to show that even if the settlement had not, been agreed to and adquiesced ini by the people at the time, yet the people ihad since that tine accepted it as a I finality, and lad ratified it, year after year. They had done more than this. They had pledged them selves in the Taxpayers' Conv'ention of 1871, by resolution, to abide by the debt as they reported it, which was within $20,000 of the amount adjusted under the Consolidation Act. Tho Democratic E xecutive Committee in 1870 MAD PLEDGED THE PARTY and the people to stand by the act,, good government had been restored inainly through the influence exert ed by that pledge atpon the capital of the conutry. Still more when the fight had been won at the ballot box and the true soils of Carolina had been thrust from their legislative balls by Federal bayonets, the Wal Wlae House, the true representatives. of Carolina, to whom the State could never pay too much honor, had pledged themselves, with but one exception, to accept the debt a. adjusted under the Consolidation Act as final. On these sepa rate and distinct occasions, and under circiimstnces well, known to the world, the best peo ple of South Carolitia had pledged their faith, their good name and their unstained honor to stand by the Consolidation Act, and any' repudiation of the debt as adjusted under it would not be merely the repudiation of a moneyed obligation but a -epudiationh of the best muen of 'the State and the fair name and honor of the State. He was thoroughly conviticed that the mem bers who differed with him were actuated by the highest motiv's, but, he warn'ed them that by their act. they placed a stain upon the fair name of the State that a century would not wipe away. Havinge dwelt at length upon this point, and having earnestly Irayed the mem bms to cotidor we ll the step they were about to take, the speaker alluded to the fact that some of the members had stated that the people demanded to be relieved of a portion of the debt. lie stated that he could not believe that the people were in favor of SAORIFICING TILE OOO NAME of the State for a few palitry doflars; butt even if they were, he would vote to stand by the act jitst the same as if every man in the State demanded its confirmatiom. He then passed to the legal aspect of I the case, and shwed by merous aiuthorities that the ~esolidated debt could not be evaded, and that even if the House adop~ted the re port of the commissioni they only entailed the lasting stains of repu diation,- threwv the fitnances of the' State into intermina~ble con fusimon, rnd gained nothing in the eird. The creditors when they had con sented to the co)1Ipromise Iel so framed the terms of the act a# to secure themeelves absolutely from b eing defraudled in the future, and it. I was vain to hope, if they so desired,. that escape w'as possible, During "'a' entire argument per feet silenced tefgned throughout. the House, and the speaker was heard with markied attention. A WITrE 1RA.'.-People are used to the sight of white mice, says a reent issue of Utica (N. Y.)' paper, but it is- d8 tbfcl if 1nf$ o omrreaders ever.W a white orat. That uch " o life*~ exists there is- no dibt, however. A getleman lving in Marcy caught a veritable white rat in a trap otn Monday. He will bring his- curi osity and~ exhibit it in this efty as soon as it recovers from the effects of interviewing the trap--a broken leg. Its ears are somewhat shorter than the vegular run of the pests. But It differs from them, with the. exception' of its color, in no other' apparent point. >The Atlanta Jot itutio a aRY that it is the unapi ous wish o~ p eoplec cfGe~or a e. plk .r 4p$ act be r ,a~d bo a6%6 a potfee hasbr k4r~W/
