Mr.. Cheyes, OF South Carolina, is mention
ed as bis probable successor. If this gen.
tleinan should receive the appointment, we
have 10 doubt that he will discharge its du.
ties with wisdom and integrity. His mind
is of the first order; his character is spot
less. As member Of congress, as chairman
of the committee of ways and means, he
distinguished himself by his information on
finance and general policy; by bis acute
ness, talents and eloquence in debate. He
presided with ability and dignity-over the
house Of representatives of the U. States;
and he now fills high judicial Office in
South Carolina. Nor can any objection be
made. even by federalism, 10 the political
principles of Mr.. Chevss; for though he has
always been democratic republican, his
moderation has been uniform and conspi-
cuous. Gazette.
/, February 6.
The lieutenant governor, we regret to
learn, has signed the act for expelling, by
force, the branches of the United States
bank from this state. We lope it will not
be productive of all the evil consequences
we fear, but of this weere confident, that
It's, 10 effect, however well it may have
been intended, an act in direct opposition
to the authority of the United States 60
vernment. The Encouragement OF the
bank does not, in our estimation, furnish
the slightest excuse for such law. The
course now pursuing by congress, is the
only correct and legitimate remedy for any
abuses of that institute n; and we are hap
by in believing, that the remedy is an am
pile one. This state is fully andably rep !
resented in congress: if any evil results to
us therefore from the establishment of

which they are conducted, let our applica-

--., ~ ~ q - A. Z,

A good deal Of excitement in the public
feelings has been produced here, by an ac-
count Of the decisions of the Supreme Court
of the United States, in the case of Sturges
Us Crovninsbield, on the subject Of the In
solvent laws of the individual states. In
that case, il seems, the defence rested on
the ground of a discharge under the insol-
vent act of this state Of lSli.-From the
statements which we have seen, we are not
able to ascertain precisely the point settled
by this decision.
We understand that the contract on which
this action was founded, was entered into
before the law of 1911 was passed. From
that circumstance it would seem, that the
case required only the determination Of the
question. Whether the law OF l8l having
been formed subsequently to the contract,
and in its operation having discharged the
debtor absolutely from the debt was law
impsiring the obligation of contracts! If
this is the extent of the principle settled by
the Court, in this case, different and much
more interesting one remains for adJudlca-
ton, viz Whether stale inso!vent law
with similar provision, would be consi-
dered as impairing the obligation OF the
contract made subsequent TO the date OF
the law /? Ifthis point has been also settled
by the Court. anil in the affirmative, it will
be one fthe most important decisions that
has ever occurred, and will place a very
numerous class of people in very perplex-
ing situation: and, as far as we can see,
must give rise to an unheard of series OF
litigation. lusolvent acts have existed, in
one form and an other, in different parts OF
the country, tor long period, and proceed
ings have taken place under them in cases
innumerable. Transfers ofproperty which
have been made, and they have been made
to a vast extent, may, for augbt we can dis
Germ, be at least put in hazard. Releases
and discharges executed by trustees, &c.
under the sanction of these laws, may he
in predicament somewhat of a similar ma
ture. In short, it is difficult to discover the
end of such state of things as such de-
cision may produce, both as it regards per-
son aud property.
We, however, are not disposed to specu-
late further on the subject, until the opin-
ION of the Court, shall be published, which
we cannot but hope will take place without
delay, as the anxiety to see it. and to learn
its nature and extent, is very deep, and We
ny universal. And ii peculiarly interest
ing to the people Of this state, at the pre-
sent moment, by reason of the opinion that
has been expressed, relative to its present
insolvent system, by the highest judicial
officers of the government, and as the sub
iect of new one is now before the Legis-
lafure. If all the former discharges under
the state insolyent acts, so far as they go
beyond the protection of the body of the
inselyent from Imprisonment, are void, aud
the Congress shall persist in declining TO
pass national bankrupt act, the condition
of our countymen, and especially OF the
mercantile portion oft, is truly deplorabie.
