2 ®|g {Daily ®«aininer. WEDNESDAY, JAN. 10, 1855. 4®*P. M. Sitton, Esq., is authorised to receive and receipt for monies due this r office. POWDER. We learn that it is a common practice for our merchants to keep in store large quantities of powder. In all well governed cities there are ordinances requiring mer chants having powder, in a quantity ex ceeding forty or fifty pounds, to store it in a building outside of their limits and provi ded for this purpose by the city. This is a wise precaution, which should be adopted by our City Authorities. We know not at what moment we may be subjected to the ravages of fire. How much more ter rible will be this visitation when accompa nied with the destructive element of gun powder. Should a fire take place on White-hall street, our gallant Firemen might imperil their own lives in performing the duty of s&ving the lives and property of their Fel low Citizens. The perils they encounter under ordinary circumstances are surely sufficiently great their without being unne cessarily exposed to additional ones. A small portion of the Twenty Thousand dollars annually paid into the Treasury by our citizens would save us the risk of val uable life and property. LOSSES BY THE FIRE. . The fire which occurred on Sunday night, while it destroyed but one building, yet fell heavily upon those whom it visit ed. We learn from the best sources of information, that the individual loss of our worthy fellow citizens, Messrs. Shackel ford & McDaniel, Auctioneer, who occu pied the store on the first floor, will not b less than four thousand dollars, (and no insurance) in notes and accounts. We extremely regret that this misfortune should have fallen upon them, for they had but re cently commenced business, and had dis. played in this period, an energy, and an enterprise full of promise in the future.— We believe that we speak the sense of the community, when we say, that these gen. tieman have its sympathy. With regard to the amount of the loss of others on the same occasion, wc append a statement which has been handed us. J. 8. & L. Bowie, Charleston, in ready made clothing, 82000 00—insured 2,- ftOO 00. William Wood, |Athens, Furniture, to the amount of between 8200, or 8300—no insurance. Henry Skinner, Augusta, Furniture, be tween 8300, or 8400—no insurance. Azel Howard, cutlery, <tc., supposed to be from 83000 to 85000—no insurance. In addition to this, there were consign ments of various articles in the house at the time of the fire, which have been de stroyed, and upon which there was no in. surance The house belonged to the Rev. Mr. McDonald, and we learn was insured to the amount of 83500 00. THE BRITISH REVIEWS. It was our intention, some time ago, to call the attention of our readers to the prospectus of the four British Reviews, and Blackwood, which has appeared in our ad vertising columns, for some weeks past. The American publishers of these works have made arrangements with the British publishers for sheets in advance, so that they may give to their subscribers these periodicals simultaneously, almost, with their publication on the other side of the Atlantic. The literature of the world, is contained in these periodicals. The tal ent of Great Britain is employed upon them, as well as American talent of the highest order. And when to these induce ments, the pecuniary consideration—that of the low price of the four, with Black wood also—is added, no one who is able to afford it. should do without them. All may be obtained for the low price of 810- The postage $1,50, is added when not ob tained from local agents. An Expressiyk ex change says: Once on J<nke Ontario, in an old tub of a steamer, a substitute for the regular boat, bound, at the rate of six miles an hour, from Oswego to Niagara river, we asked the skipper if he meant to take the usual route, via Toronto. “Go to Toronto in this thing!" was his answer, “I would as soon undertake to drive a toad through a barrel of tar!" RESPECT OF THE USURY LAWS. We copy the following communication from the Augusta Constitutionalist & Re public. It is written upon a subject— that of Usury —which is now being ex* tensively discussed in the press. We in cline to the writers opinions on the subject, and w.ll hereafter take occasion to ex press our opinion upon a movement fraught, with dangerous consequences. [communicated ] Mr. Editor : —I regret to see you yiel ding so readily to the popular current against Usury laws and restrictions. — Though commercial cities and respectable chambers of commerce have recommend ed the abrogation of all legalized restraints on usury and interest for money, I still have grave doubts of its propriety or safety for the property investments of this coun try. The experience of England is quoted as authority—l think an unsafe one. We have not, nor can we have under institu tions a great centralized metallic regulator like England, to keep exchange and inter est on money equal and uniform. The practice of our Banks in evading all legal restraints in trading in exchange, &c.,is assigned as a reason. I think the philoso phy very bad. If the Banks do wrong, are we to invite the whole community to follow their example, to enlist in the army of Shylocks and reckless speculators, and unfix all standards of value and property investments ? Ido not propose to discuss or elaborate this subject now; but to enter a general demurrer to this new light doc trine on finance, and require its advocates to iliustrate its safety and practicabili'y on the property investments of our country— not England or our trading cities. All will admit that it is an experiment and a great change in the policy and moral sen timent of the country, and I think should be well sifted before adopted. We all deprecate a depreciated curren cy. It unhealthily inflates the value of property —unhinges all settled maxims as guides of both trade and investment. Our people have studied some in that depart ment of finance, and are guarded. If I understand the effect of the measure now proposed, and that you advocate, it is to introduce into the market a legalized de preciated credit to compete with sound credit, and if it has the same effect that a depreciated currency has, it will drive out the sound credit, and take its place. We have heard a great deal about Wild Cat currency—that is what you propose to counect with a Wild Cat credit—Wild Cat Bulls, Wild Cat Bears. An open free fight, without an umpire, or any other rule guide or restraint than who can make the most, and get the most for the least sum, and the result will be, I fear, a great Cat- Ass- Trophy to moral rules and sentiments, as well as everything settled and reliable that the confidence of men is placed on. W. FARCE I’FARCE 11 Some one has placed upon our table a meagre pamphlet 4 by 6 inches, purporting to be an announcement of a Medical Col lage, in this city. For the honor of out city, we had rather this “thing”* had not been issued. We are bound as a Journal ist to inform the public, that, we have no College here ; wo have no Hospital; we have no Chemical Apparatus; we have no dfuzeum, and worse than all, the Faculty nominally elected have not the funds to build a College, or purchase the necessary apparatus. We warn the public, and we ask our brethren of the press to do like wise, that, we have no College here. In the course of time we may have a College here, but for the present, we inform the public wc have none. The Faculty nom inally elected are unknown, some of them no one ever heard of before, and not one of them arc es first-rate, or even ordinary ability. Attack on Liquor Shops ey Wo men. —The Kalamazoo (Mich.) Telegraph furnishes the particulars of a descent made on the taverns of Otsego, by the women i of that place, in consequence of an insult | offered by a dealer to a female whose drun ' ken husband visited his house. The Telegraph says: The women of the villoge, to the num ber of 38, armed with axes and hatchets, formed a procession and marched upon the destroyers of their domestic peace.— Proceeding to the hotel, they commenced a general demolition of decanters, jugs, tumblers and barrels, when the proprietor, beseeching them to desist, came to terms, and gave bonds not to sell any more liquor for six months, after which they quietly withdrew. They then proceeded to sev eral groceries where liquors were sold.— Ono of the keepers, after a portion of his stock had been destroyed, signed the required bond. Another refused, when they poured out his stock of liquors amidst the greatest excitement. During the op eration the proprietor rudely grasped one of the females and hurled her back, whereupon he was seized and most thoroughly drenccd in his own liquor.— He received several very severe injuries in the melee. After having accomplish ed this, the women quietly dispersed. During the year 1854, there were 3,640 deaths in the New-Orleans Charity Hospital. The total nnmber of admis sions was 13,183. The year before, the deaths were 3,164; admissions 13,759. The whole number of deaths last week in New-Orleans was 169. Madame Anna Bishop seems to have abandoned the “legitimate." A month ago she took a benefit in San Fran cisco, and appeared as the “Black Swan," in a negro trifle. She blacked her face and did up the darkey admirably. What | will her knighted husband say to that ? VIRGINIA DEMOCRACY. Under the above bead, we find the fol lowing article in the Coos (N. H.) Demo crat : The noble democracy of Virginia, by the nomination of Henry A. Wise, has done one good thing at least. It has taken with its candidate a bold, honest, and unwavering stand against know-noth ingism. It has firmly and unitedly gone forth to meet and resist its advancing tide, and set it, vaunting and audacious as it is, utterly at defiance. In doing this, as on several former oc casions, the democracy of Virginia has set a noble example, which the democracy of the whole Union ought to be proud to follow; which they must follow unless they are prepared to desert their own plat form, make war on their own usages, and annihilate their own strength. What has democracy anywhere right fully to do with religious proscription and sectional intolerance other than to resist them ? What has democracy to do in midnight consultation with whigs and freesoilers ? Democrats* who are insane enough, still remaining democrats to enter these underground conclaves are received there with hostile purposes to themselves and their principles. “Wlil you walk into my parlor, Said the spider to the fly. The spider was a know-nothing, swollen with venom against democracy, and the fly some wavering democrat, likely to be ensnaied. True democrats are of larger growth and strong enough to sweep through all the snares the enemy may spread for them. We hope that here and everywhere democratic candidates may be found wil ling and ready to meet and resist this new faction. We second in that matter the desire of the Union Democrat to see it met with defiance. We hope to see upon this question, as upon many others, the Granite State and the Old Dominion npon the same broad and liberal platform, con tending in the same bold and hones' spirit." were “ Know Nothings" from their own showing, as follows : “ All that we know is, that we know nothing."— Socrates. “ All we know is nothing can be known.’’ [Byron. It was once looked on as evidence of huj mility for one to confess that he was a know-nothing. The apostle Paul, however, was of a different opinion, where, in Tim othy vi-4, he speaks of a class of men as “proud, knowing nothing.” Job, on the other hand, considered them merely as an ephemeral and transitory affair, and says, viii-9, “we are but of yesterday and ‘know nothing,’ because our days upon earth are a shadow. From these diversities of opin ion it appears that the above worthies were all bona fide and literally “Know-Noth ings," not knowing, as the boy said, “a durn thing" about it.— Mont. Journal. Lord Forth has returned to Eng land from the Crimea. It is said that his return created great indignation: The London correspondent of the New York Tribune writes: He is a very young officer, a minor, and as it seems, not much of a hero. In the battle of Alma he threw himself on the ground and screamed—“l am frightened, I can’t fight." Ijord Raglan sent him word that in the next battle he was ex pected to distinguish himself by his gal lantry; two officers, therefore, were sent by the General-in-Chief to cast away his epauletts, to break his sword, and kick him out of the camp. Ho returned to England a disgraced man, his family dis own him, and the clubs are closed against him. Mr. Richardson is again before Congress with his invention for transmit ting the mail by atmospheric pressure. At Copenhagen, Denmark, a shor time ago, one Hans Herring, a naturalized citizen of the United States, was arrested immediately on landing. He was saved by the interposition 'of our Consul, Mr. Bedinger, but was forced to take his imme diate departure for London. HOTEL ARRIVALS, TROUT HOUSE —JANUARY 9, 1855.
