Ar much interest is felt throughout the country iD regard to the prospects of the cotton and other crops we will b«- grateful to our planting friends and others n the interior for information on that subject. Those who have opportunities for obtaining valuable infor mation in regard to the growing crops, the working oi the tree-labor system, and kindred matters, of gen eral interest, will confer a favor by communicating the same to us. i UBPIIMATIUJI IN (iEOKKIA. A statement has gone the rounds of the press throughout the country to the effect tl .t there is a general disposition on the part o. the people of Georgia to" repudiate the p : monf of all debts contracted before and during the war, and that an effort will be made on the meeting of the Legislature to relieve the people hy its actioD of the pay ment of these classes of .obligations. We do no' deny that the imputation is applicable to a few of the citizens of our Slate, but we un hesitatingly pronounce it a calumny when applied to the people of the State generally or any considerable portion of them. It has been said that the plea urged for repudia tion is (he loss of slaves and the failure of the crops. That our people, in common with the South generally, are groaning under the weight of calamities resulting from war and other causes ist known to us all from sad personal experience; but no calamity, personal- or political, however great, can justify the voluntary abrogation of contracts lvgudtcss of tlie interests of creditors and i' v- •!' t'.e land. IT this dishonorable pr< j> ',-i'ion jvcre,,g> tiertlly. entertained, i; v. •d !m-■“piPuiiil evidence of the i ■ ■ •! i i’lVets of the war. It is a i r! 1 •;»' "'Mi, ifonce recognized or admit- t< •! :;m*v.-»b!e under any circumstances, would undermine personal and private con- fidence. upon which are based all coutraejs aad busiueas transactions, and should, there fore, Uadiscountcnanccd by every honest and law-abiding citizen. It has been said that the movement, contains the elements of popularity, and if taken up as a hobby by politicians we may expect to see it become successful, iu 6pite of constitutions pro hibiting the enactment of laws impairing the obligation of contracts. We do uot believe t hat the mere discussion of this aad other less objectionable propositions for relief is -evidence of a purpose to repudiate, but on tiro contrary arc assured that the measure is reprobated by the great mass of our people as disreputable and ruinous to the best in terests of society. While we think that legislative action for lire relief of debtors is both proper and nec essary iu the altered condition of the coun try, yet: such action as is contemplated by tiie few who are importunate for repudiation is indt Sensible alike on the score of policy and morality. If it were, indeed, that re pudiation must follow, we should much pre fer to see it as the result of settlement be tween the contracting parties than enforced by the law making power, if it possessed the power. But it is well known to every intelligent, person that the constitutional provision that “no .State shall pass any law impairing the obligation of contracts” has more than once been adjudicated hy the Fed eral nud State Coui ts, audit should not be overlooked that members of the Legislature take an oath to support the Constitution. What Is meant by the .“obligation of con tracts?'’ In view of the possibility that the answer to this question may not be actually known to sooio»of our readers who have been discussing the question of repudiation, we give it as expounded by Chief Justice Marshall. He says: “A contract is an agreement in which a party undertakes to do, or uot to do, a patticnlar thing. The law bindlrbim to perform his undertaking, and this R of course, the obligation of his contract In the case at bar, tine defendant lias-given Jus promissory note to pay the plaintiff a turn ot money on or before a cer tain day, and this is its obligation- Auy law, which releases a part of the obligation must, in the literal sense of the word, impair it.” This is common sense, and ‘is recognized and respected as authority among all the en lightened nations of the world. Cn another occasion the same Chief Justice, whom we ail recognize as infallible when expound ed? the law, aiter showing that obligation and remedy are distinguishable from each other—that the first is created by act of the pallies, and the last afforded by the Govern ment—says: “If the iaw go further (than to regulate the remedy) and annul the obliga tion without affording the remedy which satisfies if, if Us action on the remedy be such us palpably to impair the obligation of the contract—the very ease arises which we suppose to he within the Constitution. If it leave the obligation untouched, but with hold the remedy, or afford one which is merely nominal, it ju like all other cases of misgovernment, and leaves the debtor, still liable to his creditor, should he be found, and should his property be found, where the Jaw affords a remedy.” No one, not a sim pleton, will say that t Legislature must jjot avoid coming in conflict with these high and ineontestible authorities. , ... Gut,•or? the other Band, the Legislature can possibly pass laws, and ought so to leg islate iu regard to remedies as to give relief it possible. There are many who advocate d homestead bill as the best remedy for impend ing evils. We trust they may be sustained in this view by the Constitution and public opinion. If it can be accomplished, by all means let it be done. Others reccom- meud that a law be enacted similar to one in Kentucky, whereby all real estate levied on execution shall, previous to sale, be ap praised—perhaps the price at which it was given in on the tax books of 1800 would an- swer _ahd unless two-thirds of tbjs price, yc more, shall be bid for the property* ot the sale—the, creditor having tfw privilege of tilting it at that price if he chooses—Ah*. solo * shall be barred, and the property be- Moi ' from that execution sod all others, in layer, of the same creditor, for the space say of three years. There are some ■. moral considerations I r Li 'I K«r 1 onr frif with the great buadau of dafet ? Is. there no emancipation chains of sla very h> our ctgjiiortfHfr it be impossible to pass a constitutional relief bill, it » equally impossible to phy the debt of the people. We are almost driven to the con clusion, at times, that human wisdom cannot get us out Of ouy troubles, and that great dis tress is inevitable. Bnt let the people them selves feel that the remedy is mainly in their own hands. They mash compromise debt* nud they are doing so, and will continue to do so. Let the Legislature enact every law far relief which they mu pass, bnt let the people do their doty too. Creditwgupist lose, but not all due them. They have rights. We must practice rigid and self-denying economy, and industry, energy, honesty and frugality will be crowned with success. Bealizing our pov erty, we must eonform our habits and our modesuof life to our impoverished condition. The Legislature cannot make money, and tinkering with obligations and remedies is dangerous. Repudiation is an expedient full of peril, destructive of credit, an the proper use and regulation of which our future suc cess, in a measure, depends. We have an assurance of the supply of our food and rai ment if we are energetio and economical, trusting in a kind Providence; and ntp dis charge of onr obligations, excepttonorably, can compensate for the Icis of self-respect. Let us not despond. Let the Legislature meet its responsibilities; let the people, who make the law-makers, perform their duties of forbearance and compromise. Resolu- BY. TELEGRAPH.
