We consider that such la would be most disas-

Of this county are opposed TO the enactment OF
such law. The editor Of the Rushvie Wing,
thus notices it:
sWe hear a great deal said about the passage
of relief laws by the next Legislature. What
kind OF relief do the people want? stay law,
as contended by some of our contemporaries?-
Would such law afford any al'eviatIon 10 their
present pecuniary embarrassmeDts! BY what
nrocess would IL be effected? 1t Is doubtless true
that stay Of execution is on important advantage
IN payment of debts But would not the passage
of a long stay law, completely stagnate the
fountains Of business-crush the energies OF com
merce-manacle the arm of en.e rpriZe. end pros
traie the credit Of every individual, that instead OF
relieving, il would increase the difficulties OF the
people seven told?
Can stay law be passed, having RETROSPECT
tive operaiion without irnpairing the obligation OF
contracts?
Can such law be passed, without the total
destruction Of the entire credit system?
Has not this system become so closely inter
woven with the whole business of the country, as
pie?
Would not It's abroga,ion deprive one-half OF
the community of the means Of acquiring the com
forts and necessarIes of life!
We do not propose arguing these questions.
