ner. The Col. is on a visit to the North,
but will not leave the city until noon to

section of country where Charleston
once did a large trade, it might he ad
vsntugeous for our me chants to give
him their can!* for publication. His pa
per is a very excellent one. The Col.
is at the Charleston Hotel.
The foregoing is the notice referred to
by Col. Btvi.es ii. bis letter from Charles

such individual as "Col.'' Fildos, we pre

the Banner is decidedly a better looking

CtIARI KIToN iloTKl,, |
Charleston, 8. Nov. 17 , ItstVG. f
Dear Banner:— l should have no lung
to say from this point, but that 1 hold a
sort of duty pertaining to the press, to
“narrate” important truths, whether they
relate to religion or politics, trading
or traveling. A truth about the lat.
ter is my theme at present. Messrs.
West ii Daniel, agents for the Baltimore
line of steamers, in Savannah, kindly of
fered to D. 11. me on the North Point,
t ut she was delayed, and 1 concluded to
take the inland route: Consequently 1
hunted up Eliza Ilancox, and finding her
a staunch, newly titled, comfortable
cratt, resolved to put Ctcsar and bis for
tunes aboard of her for this city. Capt.
Post, the liberal and gentlemanly owner,
put the usual stamp D. 11. on me, and at
71 yesterday morning wo loft the Charles*
| ton wharf, at Savannah, an 1 at 5J r u
arrived at the wharf in this city, making
the run in ten hours—about eighteen
miles per hour. Capt. Richardson, who
j formerly run upon the steamer St Marys,
with the lamented Freeborn, commands
j this beautiful and fast sailing steamer,
and lie says lie can beat anything afloat
upon our waters.
It is worthy of note that the Croton, j
which I believe lias been oil the line for j
some time, left Savannah at 3 r, m the
day previous to our departure, and |
reached here two hours after our arrival, j
The Eliza Ilancox is all that can be tie-1
sired for day travelling, and 1 conmend |
her to all who wish to he comfortable j
and go fast.
This Hotel is what it has always been j
first dass in all its appointments. I have
often wondered why Savannah cannot I
■ get up such an establishment. I would
not be surprised if somebody makes the;
Hotel business in that city how! before I
long. Verbum sal. „
| 1 see the Daily News announce* an
! editorial visit from Col E. It. Fildes, of the
Quitman Banner. I made search for the
mi lividual, hut have not been able to find
hirn —don't believe lie is here.
The people here are not very hopeful
of the future, and they generally express
the opinion that the eoiiutry is on tin*
eve of troublous times, and probably a
second revolution. We can only wail
and see.
I you pood luck, and continued
the Northeastern train.

The President's Forthcoiiiso Message.
A Washington dispatch of the 15th
inst , which we do not consider reliable,
says: The Prcsi lent is collecting, from
tin* most authentic sources, informal ion
regarding the situation in the South,
j preparatory io framing his animal men
na%k m . (li'iii in I HliKU'h w<»« ol..twt<tl with
him today, and submitted his views. It
is possible that the President may re
commend to (ingress the convocation of;
a national convention, in w icli all the;
States shall he represented, to consider
the grave questions now before the na
tion. Although the people of the South
may not favor the pending constitution
al amendment, and may regard the schism
between the President tnd Congress as
calculated ultimately to inure to their
own benefit, they will in the end acqui
esce in whatever the highest branches of
the government may unite ia proposing.
The President will probably suggest
sueli measures to Congress as may make
the legislative and executive •Vpart
ments a unit upon the question of restor
ation.
Am Important Decision
Judge Clayton, ol Mississippi, says an
exchange, recently held tlmt legal tdti
tier notes were such, and a valid tender,
stopping interest, when m.nlv. That the
Act of Con ress making such notes a
legal tender was constitutional, and that
the power to issue such notes is derived
fiom the war powers of the Government.
He also held that the suspension of the
statute of limitations during the war
was constitutional and valid and that no
suit can be maintained to recover on a
note the consideration for which was
Confederate money. Nor can any suit
be mainl ained to recover on a note giv
en us compensation for the hire of a sub
stitute in the Confederate army.

annual occurance, and unless s nn.thing
