Official Paper of the City. t ARBEST CIRCULATION IN THE CITY ANN COUNTY TUESDAY FEBRUARY SO, 1806. ( REVERDY JOHNSON'S SPEECH. The speech of this eminent statesman in reply to the two days' harangue of Mr. Sum ner upon' the question of restoration, is at tracting much attention throughout the couDtiy. as a triumphant vindication of the conservative policy of the Administration. It is doubtless the strongest argument upon the subject yet delivered iu either branch of Congress. He demonstrated clearly that the effect of the pending reconstruction would be to reduce the representation of the South ern States, and leave New England un touched. He predicted confidently that if the radical scheme of reconstruction, which he denounced as revolutionary, should be perfected by Congress, it would not be rati fied by the requisite number of States. Id tbe course of his remarks he pronounced the, bi i lately passed changing the basis of repre sentation and for tbe protection of civil rights clearly unconstitutional. The speech of the Massachusetts Senator, to which this was a reply, was one of the most violent in sentiment ever delivered in the U. 8. Senate. He very positively post poned the time for the Southern States to be received into copartnership, until that securi ty lor the future is obtained, which is equal rights, whether in the court room or the bal lot box. He agreed with his twin radical, Mr. Stevens, that the “disloyal States” have no ioc-d governments, and held that the rights of war are available UDtil all needful guarantees are established. He regarded the metaphysical question whether certain Stales were out of the Union, as worthy tbe dark ages. He argued for tbe equality of the favorite race not only “before the law," but as to their senses, affections, passions, and sense of wrong, quoting the adventure of Tou«saint LOuverture^ who exemplified the “genius of war and the genius of statesman ship,” and ar'icipated the recurrence of the Jamaica tragedy in our own country, unless the interposing power of radical legislation ■was employed to civilize the races. And strange to say, no republican journal that we have seen, has denounced the bloody manifesto. It would seem, therefore, that the Republican press endorse the sentiment. The Mossin the Tennessee Legislature. Th-r Nashville Union and American gives the following particulars of the scene in the Tennessee Legislatnre, already reported by telegraph. The franchise bill was under consideration. Tbe editor says: The vote being taken on the third reading, after the rail if the previous question, it was ascertained that a quorum was not present. This fact was supposed to Mve been the result of a- previous understanding on the part of the absent members. Mr. Mullins, the mem ber from Bedford, in an excited manner, charged the venerable Speaker with some complicity in the mat ter. with the view of postponing action on the bill; whereupon, the Speaker in a very emphatic man ner characterized the charge as false. Mr. Mnllins re plied in terms equally severe, which was responded to by the honorable Speaker by throwing his gavel at the head of Mr. Mullins. This brought the entire Ho.ise to their feet! Tta indescribable scene ensued. Epithets were freely exchanged, and during the up roar pistols were drawn. We are gratified to state, however, that the scene passed off without bloodshed, and the House dissolved with their usual dignity.— What a blessing it would have been to the State if their adjournment had been sine die. Arrest of Emigrants for Mexico.—The Nashville Gazette of the 17ihinst. says: “A let ter received here yesterday refers to the arrest, by the United States authorities, of eighty persons who were about sailing for Mexico. Mr. Louis Shultz, of this city, who was a soldier in the late Confederate army, was one of the arrested party. The foreigners among the emigrants were released upon reporting to their several subsequently set honor. The exp iittmi Of this topic Is (dear, and tat for the too frequeht repetition of tbe tame ideas, will be read With both interest and profit. His observations on tbe difference between.money as a medium of exchange and aa a measure of value will be acceptable to stu dents of the science ss s correct explanation of a rath er obscure branch of tbe science. There is great similarity of ideas, expressed in a different phraseolo gy, between Professor Perry on this topic, and Ur. Colvin in his work—“The Ways and Means of Pay ment.’* Professor Perry terms that “a common de nominator by which values are compared with each other, numerically, just aa feat and inches, are the de-, nominations by which different lengths are compared, and pints'and quarts denominations by which capaci ty is measured. Dollars and cents are. as it were, the language in which values express themselves.'’ Mr. Colvill expresses the asms idea, in a series of illustrations, and arrives at the same conclusion Professor Perry, that money is no standard of value bnt exclusively s medium of exchange and payment, with this difference of phraseology, that the former calls that “Money of Account” that the ‘latter terms the different denominations of Money.' To this chapter on money Professor Perry at taches a discussion cn the rate of interest, in which there is nothing novel, the subject having been so often treated ss to have become exhausted, but he also appends to his chapter on money a discussion on Cur rency in general, and Banking in which the policy of establishing what is called the system of National Banks is canvassed with much ability. The author, as relates to paper currency in general, ia the opponent of inconvertible paper money of every description, on account of the element of in stability which is its inherent and incurable defect. As regards the system of National Banks he deems them as productive of less danger than the State banks which they have superceded. He con siders the limitation of their issues to three hundred millions of dollars as beneficial, but as regards the deposit of United States stock with the Government, a valuable feature of the plan, as a restraint both against discredit and over issue. That as far as the organization of a banking system, in which the capital consists of Government bonds, it affords the same security as is afforded by the Bank of England, In having fourteen millions of its capital permanently invested in public securities. We would, however, observe on this head that the security, notwithstanding the safeguard of the public debt, is imperfect. The protection of the stockholders of the Bank of England and the National Banks is un deniably good, but in what consists the protection of the public against over issue as well ss depreciation from discredit? The Bank of England suspended specie payments for a quarter of a century, and has been since on the threshold of suspension, and what is to Bsve the Na tional banks from a similar fate, under the influence of speculative excitement, despite the fact that UO per cent of their issues are invested in public bonds, should a panic arise and these bonds fall greatly in value? Professor Perry attaches undue importance to a legal restraint against over issue. Congress may be compelled by excitement and outside pressure to ex tend the limit by which the National hanks are re strained in their issues to three hundred millions of dollars, as the British Legislature was forced to suspend in 1847 and 1857 the act of 1844 limiting the issue of the bank to £14,000,000. A complete protection, therefore, against discredit is practicable, but a depre ciation from excess seems from the nature of paper money to be impossible. on protection. There is a discussion of the question of Protection in this chapter that may well be called exhaustive. There is no argument employed by protectionists that is not subjected to examination, and that is not satis factorily refuted. That portion of Professor Perry’s reasoning which he employs in the elucidation of that principle of foreign trade which is called “The Equa- Special Notices, tion of International Demand,’’ by which an adjust- ment takes place between two nations trading to gether, by which each has some relative advantage over the other, either by the greater efficiency of its labor or some superior natural advantage. The sub ject is illustrated in the happiest manner. John Stuart Mill, in his “Principles of Political Eoonomy,’’ ex plains the same topic with his usual masterly powers of analysis. It has been only recently treated in works on the science by Mr. James Mill, the author of “Elements of Political Economy," with Col. Torrens and Mr. tticardo. ON TAXATION. In his chapter on taxation Professor Perry suggests several modifications of the duties on imports as well as on the system of internal taxation. We have thus presented such comments on this work as the importance of its contents seemed to de mand. It is a production of much ability, but charac terized by serious defects and some blemishes of style. We have noted its faults of theory and its innovations on the terminology of the science. Its want of me thodical arrangement is quite obvions, while the repe titions of the same ideas are no less striking. We have alluded to its blemishes of style. Ita language is sufficiently perspicuous, but there are phrases and imagery scattered throughout its pages that indicate a great absence of taste. CIHCULAX I have commenced the work of establishing a General Agency Business, fur (tie purchase of. all af- ii'-les manufactured or iiqportdd into the United States; (Liquors only exempted.) And with a view to success width depends solely upon the Interests of my patrons.

And as I do not pro pose to keep auy goods on hand, I will at all times be prepared to invest my patron’s money where it can be done to (he best advantage, in the cheapest ami most desirable articles. My arrangements extend from the purchase or charter of Vessels, to the purchase or sale of every, thing from steam engines down to the fitting up of a complete Drug, Shoe, Dry Goods, Hardware Variety Store, for stocks complete or for filling up the assortment. I receive for sale or shipment all country produce at Savannah, or to the care of Hunt A Bro., Charleston, S C., or Jeffreys A Bro., Jacksonville, Fla. Upon the receipt of such produce or railroad receipt f. cotton shipped, orders for its probable value will be promptly executed, the goods brought to cite ports of Savannah, charleston or Jacksonville, free of height or insurance, then balances or overplus of invoices to be paid together with about ten per cent, added to the face of the original invoice. Any party examining their invoice of goods and not being satisfied with tiie price and quality aa well as style, will not be required to take them, and their money promptly refuuded. Parties wishing their Spring Supplies, had better send in their orders and fnnds or produce as early as practicable.

By Arthur Latham Perry, Professor of History and Political Economy In Wil liams College. In the remarks made by ns Wednesday on this work we confined onrselves to its theoretical views, which we deem ae foreign from the truth as its praotical con clusions are sound and indisputable. With regard, in fact, to the elementary part of tbe work In tbe at tempt of the author to simplify his exposition has led to an unnecessary multiplication of elements or first principles, and instead of simplicity we have compli cation. Tbe chapter “ On Land ’’ denies the doctrine of Bent as expounded by Mr. Carey, and admits the theory as explained by the most eminent of the Euro pean Economists, that Land with the same amount of capital and labor expended yields a constantly dimin ished return of produce. The principles of rent ss explained by Mr. Carey, have only two names in their support of any celebrity towit; Mr. Carey himself, and M. Bastail, a celebrated French writer, while these principles, as explained by their European advocates, have in their favor nearly every name of distinction in the science. Besides Ricardo, J. 8. Mill, Senior Malthus, McCulloch, Ac. There must be some radical difference of view as to the nature and origin of rent to produce to great a contrast iu the conclusions reached ? Do not these diverse views admit of being reconciled ? May not, like many other controversies, each side be in part correct, and in part erroneous ? The proposition ss laid down by the advocates of the Ricardo theory, which Is sustained by Professor Perry, that land ia subject to the law of diminished return, may still be counteracted in its effects by the bounty of nature and the processes of art. The deterioration of tbe soil in some portions of the earth is compensated by the fertility of other portions, either natural or ac quired. The two agencies frequently co-operate Where natural fertility falls to reward the labors of man he,,by chemical and mechanical means—by com bination of fertilizing expedients effects an imitation of nature, and by inventive power saves labor by which tlie cost of raising food is diminished. Professor Perry admits that by improvements in agriculture diminished returns are retarded. Now, if they arc so retarded as to allow for the largest increase of population, despite the existence of physical and moral evil—wars and disease—the law of rent is In harmony with the operations of nature, and the pro cesses of art, which is the leading doctrine of Mr. Carey. Notwithstanding the limitation of the area of the earth's surface a comparatively small portion of that surface is under cultivation. Professor Perry’s position “ that through the operation of the law of rent the whole earth has been gradually occupied ’’ is net, therefore, tenable. It is in direct conflict with his statement in the same chapter “that the now under cultivation may be made under more Skill ful modes of cnlture, to yield indefinitely more »»«- at present, and the vast stta uncultivated lands of the world may come to render an incalculable quan tity of food to the world's population."
