The movement in favor of a repeal of the Usury Laws is quite general and determined, so much so, that we consider it now, only a ques tion of time, when they will be'swept among the wrecks and rubbish of old and decayed sys* terns. We publish in another column the pro ceedings ot the Chamber of Commerce of ] Charleston which will doubtless command at* : tention in the South Carolina legislature, which , is now in session. The State of New York will ! be slower to move in this reform than other States will be, aud will pei baps need their ex ample in order to erase this evident® of tolly from , the statute books. The Albany Register, the Albany Evening Journal and the New York Tribune are in the field as the friends of restric tion A'hey vri hto hold fast to a law which exposes an individual to imprisonment for taking : the market value of money—which thousands are imploring him to take in order to enable them i to meet pressing engagements. The Albany I Register asserts that it is the lender who des res repeal, whereas in truth and in fact, the great ! body of borrowers throughout the United States are its warm advocates. It is not Wall-street that is clamorous in this matter, but the great debtor class which i%moving. We believe ninety-nine out of every hundredjmerchantsjfa vor repeal; and we trust the merchants of Albany will j jin in the efforts made by’ the whole coun try to remove Setters which prevent the influx of capital from places where interest is lower than our rate The risk which attends the tak ing of more than legal interest, is charged to the borrower. The fact that thousands of transac tions occur here in which higher rates are paid, generatiy by giving the transactions the form o! a purchase, speaks trumpet ton«ued against the Usury Law, which is shown to be wholly impotent to lavor the class it was inten del to lavor. Frvtn the Philadelphia Pennsylvanian. Thk L sum Laws —V\ « have already express ed a favorable opinion of the repeal ot the usury laws, and perhaps no wiser measure could be adopted, for the benefit of the people. We know there is an opposite side to this question, and are satisfied that it will oe abiy contested, whenever it comes fairly before the Legislature and the country for discussion. Still, we do notdespair. All great reforms are duly accomplished after protracted consideration, involving a ciitical ex amination of the whole subject. Truth is pow erful, and when directed by intelligence; and in a good cause, will always prevail. The condi tions imposed by law, in loaning money, are so utterly at variance with the habits of the people and mode of doing business, that we are surpris ed that they have been tolerated so long. Why the late of interest should be regulated by the law is beyond our comprehension. With as much propriety the piice of pins and needles might be fixed by the same method. The whole theory oi the enactment, proceeds upon the hy pothesis. that the people are not intelligent enough to transact their own atfairs, and the sooner this error is exploded the better it will bo for ft;! parties. We are wiling to perform oor part of the work, during the approaching session of the Legislature, for the condemnation of this great measure. We live in a practical age, and at a time when I T bere ts *»«• rcuch respect paid to old things; but 1 u borrow ‘ n 8 a nd lending money, we are chain ed to the opinion of men. who established a poli jcy nearly one hundred and fifty years ago. The restrictive system was an erroneous one for them lor they wanted capital, and while their . ne ‘gobois w ould give more for it than they could L 1 * wou i! 80 thpm - »od so it is even to this , day. The usury laws benefit no one, except the extoriiooers, and lor them it is apeif'ect har vest. Honest men, in loaning money, obey these- , laws, and the consequence is. that in times like . tne present, they decline to discount paper alto g ther N„t so, bow„„, with tbS fb.rpe,,. 1 hey take the risk, both as to the infraction of , .be law. and tha chance of getting repaid for the money- advanced. They do this in the hope of i , receiving the high rate oi interest which is of- ! , lered. 11 we had entire freedom in loaning mo- t rey, it wool J be worth the market lale, at all times, like other merchandise, and this isthesys- ! ♦ tern we must come to at last. y tir X d W « OR ‘ U°* hv Makket.—The news of i the Pacific is not particularly umavotable, tut there appears a strong probability of an Engtisn - loae for war purposes, and this has induced in i, creasod caution among capitalists, until they see 1 what effect such a measure is likely to have up. 8 ? n ?Z commercial prospeiity.

AII( tLIBTA, geok«ia~ SUNDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 177 Usury Laws. I he repeal of all laws regulating and restrain ing the price of money, is a question now occu py ii>g a great deal ot attention in this country. It is contended that money, like any other com modity, should hs governed by the principle of supply and demand, and should be freed from aii arbitrary legal restrictions. Restrictions are practically inoperative, to a great extent, and whenever they are effective at all, they are un just. They are evaded by the unscrupulous, while the borrower, whom they are intended to shield from oppression, is made to pay an extra price tot money on account ot the risk run in vi olating the law. We publish two articles on the subject in our commas to day, setting torth the movements on 1 foot in several States in favor of repeal, and the ! reasons- lor it. England has already' set the ex ample to the commercial world ol repealing her usury 3aws, auu applying to money the principle of tree- trade. Time sufficient has not yet elaps ed fully to demonstrate the effect; but so far the : apprehended evils o! combinations among the few \%ho wisid large amounts ot* money, and have facilities toe controlling it not posssessed ! by the snass, have not been realized.. We oonless to having entertained on this sub ject soa.e of the appreh£ttsu> s now generally locked upon by political economists as antiquated and baseless chimeras. These apprehensions were suggested by the enormous powers enjoyed b/ Sail ks under their charters, and their capacity to combine for the purpose of charging'extortion- Tates for the use-of money'. But practically, t ie evils to be deprecated from Bank monopolies in forcing up the price of money', or rather of their credits, used and received by the community as money, tire already upon us. The usury laws exerciaw but little constraint upon them, while they reap to a greater degree, and on a wider scale, than individual money lenders, the har vest 06 high interest in tight times. By dea ling iu domestic exchange—issuing tlieir pa per at one point for paper to be paid at an other, and charging a premium called ex change on the transactions, they get an addition, amounting olten from six to twelve per cent, na ire, to the legal rate of seven per ceDt. This* exchange business is chiefly in the hands of B inks. Wherea®, the repeal of usury Jaws , would encourage competition, by inducing many ; individuals to convert their means into money, i an! make a business ol discounting paper, and thereby save many needy businessmen from the nicessity of flying kitei with the sure concomi- j tant of heavy interest, called exchange. As mat- ! t *rs now stand, the money lender of small capital 1 cannot make as good arrangements fo’r dealing in exchange a3 affiliated Banks can.located in differ- ; ent cities. He is almost exclusively confined, ne- j cissarily to local paper and if he adheres to tbt ■ law, he cannot discount, but at seven percent. When money is worth more, therefore, he must either violate the law, or he will refuse to dis countat all. Ine Banks will likewise refuse to - discount local paper at that rate, but get their , money’s worth, by discounting drafts, chargicg, ! besides the seven per aenfc,, a premium for ex- ' change. Thus far the multiplication of Banks seems ' only to have made dividends larger for stock- i holders, and money dearer to outsiders. Money j " ia made scarce by the active struggle among them to occupy the field of circulation. The la- j cal banks watch each other like hawks, each 1 striving to check the ckculatrion oi the other to ; make room for its own. They gather each o‘h- i era bills and pounce down for the coin. They are Ishmaelites in this respect. They are I afraid ol each other, and hence they contract i their issues at home a»ud send off reams of their I bills to distant point!, out of each other’s way.— j They strive for circulation in other States, the i further off the bettej , in the hope that it will be a long time before their bills find their way home again. Id this respect the new batch of Banks in Geo r gia, created by the last Legisla ture, are not the only Wild Cat concerns among us. Thus money is made scarcer instead of being more pl entiful by the multiplication of Ranks' This Scarcity enhances the value of money, and, i t lerefbre, the rate of interest. That enhanced ! rate the Banks get, notwithstanding the Usury ; ljhws. They get it either by buyio* the business ! paper of the merchants of their own States, al- ! ways to be got at a handsome discount in Wall j street; or they get it by discounting drafts at short ( time for interest and exihaage or by both opera- '<• tions. Hence the large dividends. Policy an 1 experience now seem to dictate such mea sures a.3 will diminish the number of Banks, or restrict their privileges, and increase the num- ? bar of individual Bankers. If tree trade in mo- ) n?y w’cre established, there would be less occa- , siori.and less pretext for Banks, with the extra- l ordinary privilege to them of issuing thiee dol lars of paper promises to pay for every dollar us solid capital invested in their business. There would be not one dollar less of actual capital in the country if there were no banirs, ’ They do not create money. They cieate a large circulating medium by the issue of their’bills based on assets which represent money in their vaults, and property in the bands of their debitors. But the constant fluctuations in the quantity ’ of tais circulation redounds to the benefit of ffoc ’ass ! 80 much as the Banks. When it is abundant th-y make large profits by- lending out me re. Wnon it is scarce they make large profit* on a nailer amounts by charging more, ou wlha: they do lend. Freetiadein money would have a toiderfccy to make the supply more uniform and prevent fluctuations, which under the present syatewn create such disturbing effects upon the vjdue ot property aad the price of money.

Thanks giving day, Dr. Bacon, of New Hav<*n, Conn. ’ preached a sermon against know-nothiingism, or what he called ‘The ungenerous and unchristian prejudice against foreigners which baa lately ex hibited itself in some parts of the country.” War Incidents.—lt is stated that in the char ter of steam transports the English government is already under an expense ol QUO per annum, besides furnishing foe). / When will the War End? This question raus* find its solution in the ex- '■ tent of the pride and obstinacy oi the English and French Governments. When they consent to yield to the exigency and, at some expense of wounded vanity, acknowledge that they have undertaken more than they-are capable of ac complishing and are willing to recede from their position, then there will be a prospect of peace then there will doubtless be peace. But if the war is to end only when Russia is whipped and humbled, the youngest man among ns may not live to see the end of it. Russia intends to plant her standard upon the wails ot Constantinople and to seeme an outlet for her commerce to the Mediterranean. She will fight on until she se cures the latter object by treaty, and the allied powers had as well prepare themselves for this vilege, they must calculate to tight on as long as their men, their money and their credit last, and the issue will be finally the conquest and absorp tion of Turkey by Russia. Some idea of the means, the resources and the spirit of Russia may be farmed from the follow ing extrac' ot a letter from an American gentle man ih St. Petersburg to Prof. Morse, atPough keepsia, N. Y., published in tha Poughkeepsie TeUgraph . [ am here alone, sitting by a snug fire, wri ting to my triends in America, occasionally cast ing a gtance out ot the window at the glittering domes of one of the churches. ' ' .The gold on the domes of the church amounts * to fifteen bushels of solid metal, of millions of i value. When completed, I am told that this church vviii have cost at least six hundred mil ! ilons of dollars 1 I thought that I had seen the J greatest wonders ot Europe, but in comparison I I had really seen nothing. In somfr of the i churches, the railings around the altars are of sil i vpr and gold, and gold is seen everywhere. A ado soldiers, there are thousands upon thou | sands. By spring tjiere will be one million five j hundred thousand ready for service. The war I as li.i as Russia is concerned, will never end | until Russia succeeds. The people are warm for the Emperor, and he never will give up. He j J l3B no trouble in procuring soldiers— indeed, he has to select from thousands that offer. More i offer their services than he at present needs, and j f>ai ]-, eas i Another million if necessary. 1 The Church feels a deep interest in this war. i and with the people it is a war of Religion. The ; ieeling of religion is at the bottom ot it. I am I sure ot these facts. All the gold from the domes ! ot the churches, and from their interior, and eve- ! jy doll, r owned by the people, will be sacrificed ere they give up.. Such is their enthusiasm. These you may be sure are facts. - ’ Ihe Liverpool Steamers. —The Cunard steamship Arabia, which sailed Irom New York on tne loth inst., is the last vessel ot that line i | which will 3 ”ive or depart at that port, until.the I British government releases the steamships taken i up as transports. The Collins apt! Cunard lines | have arranged to despatch their combined ves j selsoncea week from Liverpool, alternating be j tween York and Boston, tbe Cunard line ; ot course, keeping up the communication with 1 Boston, and the Coiiins line with New York.— 1 ; In consequence, the Atlantic, instead of sailing ! from Liverpool on the 13th December—her or- j j igina! day—will not sail until the 16th; and the; : Pacific, which would have left New York on the ; j 23d December, will not leave till the 27th, to be ‘ j followed by tbe America from Boston, on the 3d j | January. 'I he sailing days of both lines will i j thus be on Saturday from Liverpool, and on Wed- ! nesday fiotn America. The next Cunard steam- i er iron Liverpool witM>ethe America, which leaves on the 9th bringing ten days later intelligence. Title Washington W'hich was ter leave Southampton on the 6th for New York i miiy possibly, however, anticipate her. j T'jie Artesian Well — Our triend Mr. Wei ! ton tsays the Charleston Mercury) has not of j late made much noise, perhaps for the very re a j son tn.U he is deep. But his operations are tie- j verthehws very interesting. His bore is now i ; 1217 feetr steep, of which all but the last twelve ! | feet is tubad. At this point there was encoun- J j tered an upward force of sand that kept him I for seme time employed in holding his ground, i Gradually he has cleared this out, and the flood ! of water Has iticrea-ed. Oa Wednesday night i the water by its force, brought up a barrel of sand—equal to a good day’s work of his jgwe*~ • chines; and the up ; yesterday morning was equal to three gallons a minute. This 19 a rapid increase since the sand j stratum was reached, and we have no small | hopes that in this very bed will be found what | v|e have been looking for—a sufficient supply of good water. The Cunard steamers, which have been run ning to Boston fourteen and a half years, have transported fifty thousand passengers, and have never lost a single life, or one pound of freight. Quails. —The game laws of Wisconsin pro hibit the taking of quails after the 30th of Janu ary. The Sentinel says that there have been shipped liom Milwaukie during the game sea son, above eight hundred and sixty dozen quails. i. ShifpinO in Savannah.— -The Republican srys : —There is an unusually oi vessels in port at the present time. It. will be seen, by reference to the Shipping List, whien we publish on our first page, that thete were | yesterday 34 ships, 19 barks, 13 brigs, and 14 schooners now lying at our wharves—making l altogether a fleet of SO sail. North Carolina Benks. —An announcement in Dye’s New York Bank Detector of the failure of the (.Commercial Bank ot Wilmington, the > Bank of Wadesboro’, the Bank ®f Fayetteville, and the Bank of Washington, (all North Caro lina banks) is pronounced, by the Wilmington (N. C.) Commercial, as utterly untrue. That paper adds: # A more infamous cheat and imposture was never uttered under the itnj ression of types and ink. These banks are as sound as any in the Union, and never in a better condition than at this time, as we have good reason to be lieve.” War DAOUKERKOTYFED.—The historian may now break his tablets and throw away his pen he is left entirely in the back ground, eclipsed and buried by the daguerreotypist. This enter i prising body, employed now in the East, have al ready, sent home to Paris more than four hudred pictures, representing the acts and deeds of the army both on land and sea, under all aspects and circumstances, and with mathematical precision- < So far has this been carried that all the reports to the Minister of War are accompanied'by daguer reotype pictores of most remarkable beauty and precision. Another Defaulter.—The Cleveland Plain dealer states that the treasurer of Holmes coun ty has absconded with 30,000 of the people’s cash. /'Death op a Printer,—Win. A. B. Pace, a firinter, said to be the fastest compositor in the United States, died at New. Orleans on the 4th instant. * dJath op a Naval Surgeon.—Letters via San Francisco, mailed at that place November 16th, have brought intelligence that Passed As sistant Surgeon James Hamilton, of Balfimore died at sea, on board of the United States steam frigate Susquehanna, on the morr.ing of the 6th of September. He was buried at Simoda, Ja pan, on the 15th of the same month. 1 he Philadelphia Ledger, says that those who j contend for Congress fixing twenty-one ypars as the period of residence lor foreigners before they ;-hal! be naturalized, suppose that the. Tftalt.fr is within the regulation ol Congress This is par tially and praticaiiy a mistake. Congie** only regulates the subject as far as citizenship of ij»e Carted States is concerned. The individual States claim and exercise the right of allowing a, ‘' res^en * : t!ie P r *vi leges of a voter on just f UC res^ence as State Constitution may say is necessary. Michigan allows any foreign born citizen to vote on six months 7 reside, ce Ihe greater number of States have abrogated the , ,- norl taxed by the laws of the United States. But the !act that States are sovereigns in their Iota! affairs, and that some of them have a different rule, shows that Congress has „n power over the individual States upon this subject— ’ i hts principle has been judiciously established in Michigan. The New York Courier and calls at- | tention to the case of Martin Speer, an Ameri- ; can naturalized citizen, who has been imprison'. ia Austria since August, 1553. Ha had resided in ' New York for fourteen j'fears, and went to Hun gary in July, 1553, to perfect himtelf in the ait of painting screenes tor magic lanterns. While J there he was sitzsd and imprisoned, and wi itis that he isjto go to the Castle for ten years’ hard labor, though he was not brought to tiial, so that he could have an opportunity to prove that he had not visited Hungary for- political purposes. The case was brought to the notice of Mr. Mar cy, who in May last, wrote to the wife ot Speer, residing in Brooklyn, that he had forwarded the tacts to Mr. Jackson, Chaige d’Affaires at Mes sina, with instructions to investigate and report the case to tho Strte Department. We suppose toe S.ate Department has received no intorrna- ; tson yet which warrants it in acting upon the subject. British Fleet in the West Indies.—The trembling of a large British fleet in the West , India station, it is alleged has no connection I with the Greytown affair or the Cuba question. | A Washington correspondent of the Philadel- I ! pbia Americau states that Mr. Crampton the I British minister, has made an informal state- | | that it is part of the Baltic fleet, sent there ; i for exercise in the open sea, preparatory to its I being employed in the ensuing Russian carn j paign. Sugar Crop of Louisiana.— The Piaque ■ mine Gazette says that the sugar-planteis of I Iberville are nearly through grinding. The Ga ! ze^e hears ot no place that has made as much l sugar fiom the same land this year as it pro i duced last year. .The Official Vote at Last. — I'he official ; ; vote ot the State ol New York at the late elec-* ; tion is at last known, the State canvassers hav ing dosed their labors. The vote is thus given ; by the canvassers: Clark, 136SOI; Seymour | 156,495, Oilman, 122,282; Broi.son, 33 850. ! The regular term of.the Hardin (Ky.) Liicui I i Court is now’ progressing in Elizabethtown, j Thos. M. Yates, one of the jurors who giarited i ie ve *dict ol not guilty in the Ward case, is up l on tria! for perjury. He was indicted by the ! grand jury, along with several others of the ju- \ ty ' - -- i < j Illinois U.

Under j wood, Richard Yates, Owen Lovejoy, and one j or two others, are all mentioned in different | quarters. Tornado in Mississippi.—A teirible tornado | late *y passed over the town of Marion, Miss— |lt left but one solitary house standing. Houses, ; fences, in short everything which happen i so lie.in the path of the tornado, were blown dow n and destroyed, fortunately, no five* w'ere lost. Bad Business for an Elder. — On Saturday, in theßjisWri Police Court, John D. Adams, for- JnertjTriofed as the Mormon Elder,** but who has more recently renounced that doctrine and professed to become a convert to the Methodist laitb, was fined $3 and costs for being drunk. Destructive Fire—About SSO 000 worth of property was destroyed by the fire ak Vin cennes, Ind., on the 7th inst. GembeTs clothing store, Elmer !k Co.’s grocery, Dr. Reynold's cffice, Grotens’ dry goodi store, and Gratuv gro cery- were among the houses consumed.
