THE SC N. MAMTH l i 1., UAH’! COI JITV. U nXlncMln). OclolH'i i. IWII. BENSON & McGILL. Editor*. A. G. McCURRY, Associate Editor.

Ik we are to have an Emperor, wc would .prefer Grant over Sherman or Blaine either. Thk yellow fever has about subsided in ■Memphis. The recent frosts have killed it out. May it never have such another visitation. It is rumored that the negro who was to Kiave been hung r.t Danielsvillo on last Fri •dav, was respited by the Governor until the 14th of next month. Thk Monroe College, at Forsyth, Ga., was consumed by tire on last 1 riday night. It was one of the linest in the Stale. Esti mated loss, #25,000. The furniture was all saved. Wk have received the tirst number of Pie Scuh-wcekly Post, published at I hom asvillc, Ga., by IN ind A McCunts, lho small, it is plucky and spicy, and deserves success. Thk Independent boom in Georgia is gaining strength every day, which will do the Republicans very little good, however. Jt will not be many years before scrub races will be all the go. Ho*. It. 11. Iliu. writes a letter to Rep resentative Chittenden, of New 1 ork, in which be completely uses up that small, little Chit. The Radical papers are charg ing over it. It t* bard to digest. Rettcr let ’cr alone, Cbitty. The Democrats of tlic North are as un stable us the winds, and there is no confi dence whatever to be put in them. This is the simple truth of the matter. Just when victory aeems to be in our grasp, they back down, and endeavor to throw the weight t,f all their chimerical financial politics mpon the South. The result is the Repub licans foist their candidate into the presi ■ dential chair, and in our opinion will do so in 1880, nnd that man will be Grant, or worse—Sherman. Then nation will be spelt with u big N, and State lines will exist • only in the imagination. And the South vrilf have another taste of carpet-baggisin and.its evils. This is the way we look at it, and we await the fulfillment of our proph esy with patience. Thk Atlanta Constitution says the com plctioiUof the Lawrenceville Drancli Rail-j road is now an assured fact and merely u matter of time, and of very short time at : that. At a meeting of the stockholders held last week, it was found that the sub- i 'scriptiou fund amounted to #20.000 m cash, 1 - exclusive of some real estate which will , "'be accepted. A telegram was received from Mr. Sibley, President of the Air- Line Company, that the contract between that corporation and the stockholders of i the Lawrcnceville ltranch Road had been signed, lty the terms of this contract the Air-Line Road agrees to equip the I.aw renccville Drancli provided the work is be gun before the lirst of November. We understand dirt was broken last Monday 1 at 12 o’clock, m, Messrs. Oliver & Long, of Seneca, S. C., have the contract for con structing the road bed and trestle work. llart county means to keep pace with the times, and, as will be seen, is in ad vance of many wealthier counties. IS e have the enterprise and our people arc cy ■erv day becoming more public-spirited. Of course we have a lew old fogies and croakers who would be glad to sec our railroad enterprise fall 'through, but in this rthey will not be gratified; so they bad as •well adapt themselves to the circumstances, ■or go to Sand Mountain. The lulercsl Dili. Chrvnicle cf ( ViwUfutioHalist. Sow of our esteemed Georgia contem poraries continue to attack the new Inter est bill. The Grittin Mews gravely asserts that ** this act virtually stops banks from loaning money, for it requires live or six per cent, to pay the expenses ol a llfly thousand dollar bank. For instance, they have a President at twelve hundred dol lars, and a Cashier at twelve hundred; <then, if they have no book-keeper, their rrents. insurance and taxes will amount to sevcu or eight hundred dollars. This cal culation, which we think is a liberal one, shows tliat it requires six per cent, to run a fifty thousand dollar bank, which only Jeaves two jwr cent, net on the capital. ' Then the worst hardship it will work will : bc on the farmers, who when they do bor irow money, do it on six or eight months’ .time. tn order to have time to make a crop. '.The bankers say they cannot loan money (for that time at eight per cent, per annum, and the consequence w ill be that the mer chants will have* to borrow the money on short time at one per cent, per month, and supply the farmers with supplies on time at big prices.” In a majority of the States tbc legal rate f interest is one or two per cent, lower lhan that of Georgia. and yet the banks contrive to survive, make money and accu mulate reserve funds. IV e dare say the Georgia banks will be able to mainlan themselves. If the planter has to borrow on short time at exorbitant rates per month, we arc sorry for hint, but hope he will do nothing of the kind. The Macon Telegraph says it has taken Jthe pains *• to communicate with every ipresident in Macon, and they all af firm ttytt their minimum expenses foot up 7} per cent, per annum, over four percent, ol which is m the form of naked ami abso- lute taxation. The remainder, which some estimate as high as per cent., is lor sal aries of employees, fuel, lights, insurance, etc. They Bv, therefore, they will be forced from necessity greatly to curtail their operations and limit them to gilt edge securities at short dates, which planters cannot alforil to pay.” Wc really hope that matters are not so bad as this, and, us the Augusta banks have arranged to conform to the law, very likely the Macon banks, with a slight ef fort, can do the same thing. It would be a good tiling, perhaps, if all the banks would limit their loans to gilt-edged secu rities. the more so as they have not infre quently loaned money and lost it on secu rity no better than that of Bapdolpli or Ancient Pistol, not to speak of Jack Fal stalf. Hut our respected and esteemed contem poraries need have no fear. The banks ami money lenders will survive ; they will get out of hc planter and merchant all that is possible. Men who have no secu rities will learn to pay as they go, andprolit by it. Men who have securities can bor row money at excessive rates all the same, and, at the end of the unequal light, make assignments. The wealth of the I'llited Stales is capitalized at about •!.] per cent., and that is the true rate of in terest. The man who thinks 8 per cent, too low bad better write to Mr. George A. Adair or else consult bis nearest neighbor who lias tried to tight higher interest from year to year. THE HANKS ON THEIR METAL. They Will Disregard Hie Sen Interest latltt . Atlanta Countitution £\d. The 8 per cent, interest or usury bill, is still discussed in commercial circles, but the banks have about reached a conclusion in the matter of the law and its effects. It lias been fully examined in all its details ! by competent attorneys and every decision !of the courts that could affect its proper ' construction has been consulted. The re sults are in tliu hands of the bankers and it remains to be seen how each ol them will act in the premises. WIIAT O.NK HANK WII.I, DO. A reporter of The Constitution yester day stepped into one of our largest and best banking institutions and met its pres ident. ‘•What are yu going to do about the new interest bill?” “Wc are going to disregard the law in toto !” replied the banker. •* Well, what then?” ” Why, we shall simply go on as wc have (lone heretofore and transact business just as though no such law had ever been passed. When it comes time to make our semi-anitual reports to the governor wc will make them and swear to them as cor rect. If ii is demanded that wo shall make the full oath with regard to having violat ed, any law of the slate, we shall swear i that wo have violated this law by taking ! more interest than it allows.” Is there no penalty for the violation *• There is a penalty for not making the report, but that we will make. The only penally for violating the law is that pre scribed in the law itself—the forfeiture of the interest- —and the state itself does not assume to enforce that.” Swj.poHo your patrons do nol-*' There is little danger of that. There is not one in a hundred who would do it. After agreeing to the contract it becomes a matter of commercial honor, and lie would be the greatest loser should lie vio late it. <>ur best customers among the merchants of the city say they propose to spot every man who takes advantage of this law, and will shut down on his credit. They favor keeping a black list of all such men. llow that may he is no concern to us. Wo will take all the risk that follows our transactions and bear all the losses. We are not afraid of the result.” We arc informed that nearly all the other banks have reached the same conclu sion, and that this treatment of the law is almost certain to become general in t In state. In that event, it will prove the deadest of dead letter laws. A BANK CONVENTION. It is noticed that the bank people in Ma con have issued a call lor a meeting of the bankers of the state at an early day to consider this law. It is hardly probable that the meeting will result in much of im portance, even if it is held. We think none ot the Atlanta bankers will partici pate, as they consider that the time lor concerted action lias passed. They would have joined in an organized effort to deteat the hill before its passage, now they con sider the matter of its evasion to be one of individual responsibilities and every opera ! tor must take bis own road out of the wilderness. At present some of the : bankers in the interior are much disturbed i over the provisions of the bill, but it is likely that they will all conclude that they can risk its penalties and will go forward as heretofore regardless of the act. IT DOES NOT AFFECT NATIONAL HANKS. Olio of tlic strong points urged upon the governor in favor of the veto of the hill was the fact that it is inoperative as against national banks. It is this fact, now that the hill has become law, which moves the state hankers to disregard it. They be lieve that such a discrimination in law is unconstitutional and cannot he upheld upon a square issue. There are many de cisions which take the national banks out of the operations of the usury laws of a state, hut perhaps the most pertinent is that rendered by the supreme court of the United States, October term, 1575, in the case of the Farmers’ and Mechanics’ Na tional Bank vs. Hearing, in which the court says : " Contracts made with the na tional banks are not controlled by the usury laws of a state, hut by the act of congress, which declares a simple forfeit ure of the interest illegally reserved.” This decision is the standard one relied upon by the national banks and will show how the new Georgia law oppresses home hanks. - - Treasurer Renfroe, Acquitted, you know.

Probably the oldest of the American statesmen now alive is l'olcg Sprague, of Maine, lie is eighty-eight years of age and entirely blind, lie was a member of the United "States Senate from 1820 to 1835, when Webster, Clay. Calhoun and Benton were the leaders of’that body, and be was a member of the national House of Repre sentatives from 1825 to 1827. He was judge of the United .States District Court of Massachusetts from 1841 to 18G1. The cotton rrop of 1878-’7t) was the largest ever raised in the South, and ten years of free labor shows an excess of 3,- 150,303 bales over ten years of slave labor. We are told, however, by the Republican *• men of brains” that the negroes, who constitute the greater portion of the Southern cotton hands, have been, during the ten years of free labor, massacred by the thousands, limited to the swampland burned at the stake by the cotton planters. The quality of the brains manufacturing such stories would be despised by a Guinea negro.—- Savannah News. The conservative Hoston Herald sums up thus : " The result in Ohio thins out the Democratic candidates for President. It settles Thurman, who ought tohavo been a wiser leader, and Ewing, who also had hopes. The Ohio election foreshadows a similar result in New York, which weakens Tildeti’s ehnnees for a nomination, while it makes a nomination less valuable. It brings Sherman to the front on the Repub lican side. and. by increasing the confidence of the party, exposes it to the clanger of taking an untenable position in favor of centralization.” The Paraguayan Government has im -1 posed n tax "of one dollar a year upon all j single men between the age of twenty-five and lift v. Womon are not taxed, on the assumption, no doubt, that many of them ! would get married if they could, and are. 1 therefore, not to blame for not becoming i wives. The object is to make up for the I loss of population caused by the ions-; amj [ terrible struggle between little Paraguay on one side and Brazil and the Argentine 1 Coilfederation on the other. A few years hence the effect of this tax will be worth observing. Butler Herald: We are sorry to relate the unfortunate occurrence which happen ed to Mrs. Mandy Brewer a few days ago. This good lady on retiring to bed at night, i placed three pins in her mouth, but in tak ing them out of Iter mouth, to her aston- I ished surprise found there remained only two. On swallowing immediately tliere i after, the pin was distinctly and painfully felt in lu-r throat, which still remains un | extracted. l)r. Smith informs us he has made every effort to extract the pin hut j the pain being so severe to the lady it was impossible to do so. as the pin had lodged i crosswise m her throat, lhis should be a j warning to those ladies who use a vast I number ol pins and so frequently and un ; thoughtfully place them in their mouths. Augusta Eveuing News: A South Georgia paper says that Col. G. J. Fore acre lias taken more second class roads and made them lirst class than any man in the Union. It further states that recently he was offered the Governor Generalship of the railroads in Switzerland, with the privilege of naming his own salary, but de clined. We learn that there is quite a feeling in South Georgia in favor of bring ing Col. Foreacre out for Governor. While we have no doubt that he will peremptor ily decline the use of his name in that con nection, we cannot forbear stating that he would make a No. 1 Governor. He is a self made man. a man of tirmness. decis ion and force of character. He would guide the helm of the State with a firm hand amid all dangers, and manage the affairs of the Commonwealth with ” Wisdom, .Jus tice and Moderation.” But can the rail road world do without him ? Wnm-nton Clipper : There are promi nent men in this section, and among our readers, too, who think Colquitt got part of the Murphy fee. We would hate very much to pronounce these gentlemen "ca lumniators and malignant liars.” There is another class who think his honesty, in seeking investigation, and his readiness to allow his worst enemies to thoroughly in spect his acts and motives, save him from all criminality ; but they honestly think him incompetent to he Governor. This class are numerous, and highly respectable. We would hesitate seriously before stig matizing them as " calumniators and ma lignant liars.” Indeed, if those, who dif fer from us in opinion, are to he thus judg ed. we lay down the same rule to he judged by ourselves. There is no escape from it. Agaiji. if these two classes are incapable of judging what kind of a man is capable of being Governor, then they tnu.-t seek wiser advisers than the followers and sup porters of Colquitt. Two cases of rape within the space of one week, in Thomas county. The public mind was not quieted from the excitement produced by the villainous night assault upon the person of Miss Martin, in the su burbs of Thomasvillc. before it was thrown into fever heat by the news of .successful rape upon the body of Mrs. Futch. daughter of Mr. Surratt, during the brief absence of her husband, at noon, on Wed nesday last. The unfortunate lady was much bruised and otherwise injured. Her residence being only a few miles from town in the 17th District, news of the outrage was brought to Sheriff Coyle, who, in com pany with Marshal Spair and several gen tlemen from the neighborhood where the crime was committed, proceeded to scour the country in search of the demon. They arrested Frank Thomas, colored, on Thurs day morning, and he is now in jail as the perpetrator. Facts elicited by iiis arrest. CHAM3ERLN, BOYNTON k CO.
