Usury Laws—A Plea tor Use Peer Ala a. All sumptvary lawn are mere relio* of a re fined barbarism. They have been coin moo ell countries daring the period of transition from barbarism to civilization; and viewed •rely as an appendage of the ckryeilie state of civilisation, they ore not without their usee. The trial by wager of battle and by fleet preceded the trial by jury; and the ad- mission of evidence offered by the prisoner, preceded hie representation by ooaneel. The rock and the thamb-acrew, preceded the pil lory os punishment for contempts; and the last preceded that wholesome legal maxim Nemo tenetrur seipsum aceusare—"no man shall be t spelled to aooaee himself.” In the early dawn of civilisation, shepherds and herdsmen bad no standard measure of com modities. Their commerce Involved no media or mere representatives of values; but was carried on by actual exchange. Farther on, and as the necessities for commerce increased, the baser metals were used as the measure of commodities; and as men progressed in civili zation, gold and silver became the ultimate standard of values. Hence, we find Abra ham giving so many "prices of silver*’ for the care of Mackpelab, because that was more convenient than the delivery of so many head of cattle. As men increased in knowledge, and as commerce became more general, money, as a convenient measure of commodities, became more appreciated and sought after; and hence, instead of baying cattle and other personal property, on a credit, for capital to be used in speculation, men found it convenient to pay interest as usury on money. And from thence sprang onr usury laws, which are bat another form of the fciuinp- tnary laws of the ancients. This Bystsm of laws is still in force in many of the States of onr Uuion; and, whilst a may pay what he pleases for the use of the commodity itself—such as lauds, wheat, corn, horses or oxen—he may not, according to these laws, pay what he pleases fur tho the common representative or measure of these commodities! A. may agree to pay B. two thousand dollars for the use of a store house one year, and this is legal notwithstand ing the house itself may not have cost one- half that sum. And yet A. may not pa; B. four hundred dollars for the use of two then sand, wherewith to bnild a house of his own, because that would bo illegal usury ! Oan any sane man imagine anything more senseless ? And yet it is law 1 It is one of the relics of a barbaric age which has adhered to ns through the centuries of the past, bnt which commerce now demands should be shaken off. The usual plea whereby usury laws arc sought to bo sastained, is, that they protect the weak against tho strong, the poor against tbe craftiness of the rich, by preventing the money lender from taking advantage of the necessities of the borrower and exsoting exor bitant usury. Every practical business man appreoietes the falleoy ot this reasoning; and, that so far from benefiUing the borrower, usury 1 »W8 only embarrass and cripple him. Take an illustration: A is a merchant of small moaus. Hs understands his business bnt is constantly hampered for want of ade quate capital. Ue sees where, in his line of business, ho can use two thousand dollars so ss (ordinary hazards excepted), he can make it pay a net dividend of twenty-five per cent, per annum. B. is a money lender, and is perfectly willing to lei A. have this amount upon npptoved security, at fifteen per cent per annum. Bnt there is an insurmountable difficulty in the way. The lew prohibits usury in excess of say seven per cent.; and when the lender consents to take more, ho lays himself liable ti> heavy penalties. Hence the lender seeks other channels of investment, the bor rower misses his opportunity, money is with drawn from the market, and thus a "strin gency” is created whioh is felt only by the poor man. An honest hsru working mechanic owns a shelter for his wife and littls ones, but upon Which is a mortgage for a small balance of purchase money. The time expires, thoroorl gage is fort-Hoard, and (he family is tamed oat to bin a house at twenty dollars per month, wboi), but for the usury laws, conld have hired the money wherewith to pay off this mortgage at say ten dollars per month I Tuts is no fancy piotare. On the contrary, it is bnt tho history of every day life, ts wit nessed in this and other titles. And the ■Ame illustrations wifi apply with equal force tojhe small farmer and the more pretentions planter. Many an indnatrious farmer might save his form from the Sheriff, and than «ava himself and family from financial rain, but for the miadireoted kindness of a law whisb stands in tbe way of his only uisuns of reHsf t Let all inch laws bo repealed without de lay. Civilisation demands it BaataeMi and Commerce demand it Humanity to tho poor desnnnds it If a man be sofifoientiy ssae to contract for the use of one thing, tbe law should preamps him equally capable of con tracting for the nss of soother. If a meebsu- lo may legally contrast to pay bia landlord, why ah on Id he not legally eon tract l0 par the usurer for tho poc of mousy, wboreWUh to boy a shanty of his own; and then gradually extinguish this loan by applying the exoass of rent over usnry, to the payment of the principal T Democracy for this other hand it la haa lk» are enoi now _ _ Interesting occasion dstli igfc it theftecttdltloo by their support of his Exprsaeclsnoy.

Blsliop- EXTRACT From a notice of the Chapman BlaUra’ Comic Opera Company, while at the Bar's Opera House, St. Loula, lu the St. Louis Republican of the 18th of August: "Their rare peraonal beauty la heightened by a grace of manner, a finish of style, which blends together with an attractiveness that none can reaiat. It la pli ant to notioe that even in the maddest freak of 1 mad extravaganza, these ladies never forget the mod esty of deportment, whioh is the brightest ornament of womanhood. Their fun never degenerates into vulgarity—the wine of their humor has no sediment to poison. Tho Misses Chapman may be proud of their reoeption here; but they riohly deserve it "Mr. Bishop, irresistibly comio, played his part to perfection. He is sure to become a prime favorite among our play-goers.” The performance will be changed each evening. Manager Mr. Job* T. Ford.
