€ljc Constitutionalist AUGUSTA, Saturday Morning, October, 2, 1875. Business Scandal-Mongers. [From the Halifax (N. S.) Citizen.l They have a capital statute upon the books in New York, which we would be glad to see largely copied elsewhere if it could be properly carried out, but unfortunately the law, so far, has been little better than a dead letter. The purpose of the statute, which was passed some time since at the instance of the Stock Exchange, is to provide a penalty for the punishment of persons guilty of circulating false reports as to the standing of commercial houses. The intention is a praiseworthy one. There is nothing in the world so important to a business iirm as its good name, and there is every reason why they should be proctected in its enjoy ment. If the law takes hold of and punishes the thief who breaks into a man’s shop and carries off a few arti cles of trifling value, much more should its severity be visited upon the thief who robs him of his good name. The loss of a small quantity of goods is nothing, but these are seasons when the faintest suggestion of unsound ness, a whisper or a shake of the head might prove ruinous. Some time ago when the stringency in the money market was felt here most severely, and when no one could feel perfectly secure, rumors affecting the credit of business people, whose standing had hitherto been un questioned, were circulated freely from mouth to mouth as ordinary topics of conversation. Such an one had been forced to ask for an extension of time. Such an one was endeavoring to make a compromise, and such an one would be obliged to close down altogether. In some cases these rumors were wholly unfouuded, aud the persons affected were as sound as the banks. In others, though feeling the all-prevailing times, the parties only required to be easily dealt with to come out square. It is mani fest that it must be a serious injury to a man in this position to have his finan cial status made the subject of all sorts of alarming rumors. Nothing has a greater tendency to bring his creditors down upon him, and make inevitable a giving way under a pressure which might have been successfully resisted. No offense is more deserving of an ex emplary punishment than the diligent circulation of these same idle rumors. They are difficult to trace, they are dif ficult to contradict, and they have gen erally done their work before they can be effectually counteracted. A rumor affecting a man’s credit is simply scandal iu one of its meanest forms, and even if statutory penalties do not suffice to coirect the evil, we should think a proper feeling of self-respect on the part of the public would. Let people studiously refuse to circulate these rumors themselves, aud set their face against the practice in others. Iu New York the reputation of several sound business houses was assailed the other day, and interested parties have determiueu that the statute shall be a dead letter no louger. They have taken steps to trace the rumors to their source, aud avow that if the originat ors can be discovered they will be pur sued without mercy. It is believed that even if the effort fails it will be an even worse sign of general demoraliza tion than the frequency with which such reports are started and circulated. A. T. Stewart’s Ten Thousand Dollar Carpet. Among the many treasures owned by the “merchant prince” is a magnificent carpet, which was once intended to grace the halls of royalty, having been manufactured for the Emperor Napo leon. Its size is about forty feet square. The centre-piece, its most prominent object, occupying nearly one-half of the whole area, represents a beautiful oval shaped picture set in a gold frame, and suitably hung, would at a distance be easily mistaken for an elegant painting. The picture shows the harbor, castle and surrounding country of Marseilles, France. Iu the foreground, one is charmed by the blue water and the stately ships at anchor; further back the harbor and uucieDt castle, rising grandly in its magnigeent whiteness against the green foliage enveloping the base of the mountains which form the back ground and lift their heads into a blue sky, flaked with fleecy clouds. Na poleon’s coat of arms surmounts the picture, and a Latin motto, wrought in gold on blue ribbon’-like ground, esli half unrolled at the base. Immediately surrounding this lovely picture, in a bed of rich brown, is a garland of beautiful flowers, much 1 irger than natural size, but so brilliant and so delicately and accurately repre sented that it seems as if one might stoop and lift the petals one from an other. Outside of this garland, and serving as a border to the carpet, is a wreath formed of overlapping oak leaves and acorns, also in natural colors, their various shades of green and brown blending iu exquisite beauty. It is quite impossible to give an idea of this wonderful fabric, which was made with the needles of poor women, who wrought it in sections and set to gether, after the manner of the camel’s hair shawls. Its texture is as delicate as a silken robe, and no painter could portray color or detail with greater skill. It actually cost §IO,OOO to make it. Mr. Stewart saw it at the Paris Exposition, and purchased it as a novelty to exhibit to friends who visit his “up-town” store. ' A- A Conundrum. Mu. Editor: la your issue of July 17th the following paragraph occurs in the local editorial column : “ We understand that the Board of Directors of the Planters Loan and Savings Bank are preparing an elabo rate statement, which will be satisfac tory to all stockholders.” The summer has passed. The ex- President has sold out, and now, with the nuts of October, statements with shrinkage in values are in order. Give us your statement, gentlemen of the Directors, including real estate trans actions in all its branches. Stockholder. The Documents. —Saturday morning two colored citizins entered the City Hall and inquired of the County Clerk if he would let them see the city direc tory. “Want to find someone one?” he asked as he shoved it across the desk. “You see, boss, it’s jist dis way.” re plied one of the men. “I spell cat with a great big ‘C,’ and he spells cat with two ‘t’s’ on de end, and we has come here to see the documents.” The clerk gave them his way of spell ing, and they went away to get a bet out of someone on spelling “cat.” At Quebec, last week, a deaf and dumb sailor, charged with deserting his ship, cross-examined the witness, who was also a deaf mute, by signs, and made an eloquent speech to the magis trate in the same language. He was acquitted. The man who says that alum and salt will cure toothache is wanted in Detroit for an hour or two —just long enough to prevent the doctors from ever being able to fix up his broken bones. Mr. Norton, a Texas editor, has whis kers three feet long, and his wife has begged and begged of him to cut them off and let her have them for a mop. TAKE SIMMONS’ LIVER REGULATOR For all diseases of the Liver, Stomach and Spleen. MALARIOUS FEVERS, BOWEL COMPLAINTS. DYSPEPSIA, MENTAL DEPRESSION, RESTLESSNESS, JAUN DICE, NAUSEA, SICK HE \DACHE, CON STIPATION, COLIC aud BILIOUSNESS. It is eminently a Family Medicine, and by being kept ready for immediate resort, will save many an hour of suf fering, and many a dollar in time, and doctors’ bills.

Eminent physicians commend it as tne most EFFECTUAL SPECIFIC for Constipation, Headache, Pain in the shoulders, Dizziness, Sour Stomach, Bad Taste in tiie Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpi tation of the Heart, Pain in the Region of the Kidneys, Despondency, Gloom, and Forebodings of Evil, ail of which are the offspring of a diseased Liver. The Liver, the largest organ in the body, is generally the seat of the dis ease, and if not Regulated in time, great suffering, wretchedness, and DEATH will ensue. LF you feel dull, Dkowsy, Debili tated, have frequent Headache, Mouth Tastes bafly, poor appetite and Tongue Coated, you are suffering from Torpid Liver or ‘ Biliousness,’’ aud nothing will cure you so speedily and permanently. “I have never seen or tried such a simple, efficacious, satisfactory and pleasant rem edy in my life.” —H.
