Correspondence of the Courier.

~ WASHINGTON, Marcn y.
s. The House of Representatives is still engaged
every day, and all day--not on the ApPortion-
ment Bil--not on the revenue and finances
not on the North not on public defence-not
on any system for maintaining the credit and
character of the Government, or of relieving
the public embarrassments-but on the paltry,
thread-bare and tattered subject of skinning a
few clerks or pages or sweepers OF the House.
Sixty thousand dollars have been alread7 spent
in this debate, and the savingwill not be a tythe
of that sum, even should the resolution be ever
carried into effect with sincerity-which will
never be.
Mr. HOLMES, of your city, made some cut
ting remarks on this cant of economy, yester-
day; and he moved in order to test the sinceri-
ty of members, to prohibit entirely the supply
of stationary to members. The retormerS were
taken aback-they did ut know what to dot
was amusing to witness their contortons. FL
nally, when the yeas and nays were demanded,
they resolved, for consistency's sake, to swal-
low the pill, hoping that a majority would reject
it. But the motion was adopted, SO to 81. AS
soon as it was found that it was adopted, there
was great agitation among the retrenchment
humbugs. They instantly took measures to
rescind the vote, which they accomplished!
Not one of the reformers would pay for ream
of paper out of his own pocket, to save ttskef fte-
public.
But in regard to this small matter of stationa-
nv, the retrenchment resolution on the subject,
though held up as a measure of reducing en-
penses, does, in fact increase the expense OF
stationary, and this was announced to the House
by Mr. UNDERWOOD; but tho House went ior
the humbug-not for the fact.
So in regard to the Post Office of tie House,
which is entirely convenience to the members
for it saves them the expense OF box each,
at the city Post Ofice-and the expense of two
cents letter for the penny post; but it costs
the country eight thousand dollars. The mo.
tion to abolish Il, was mooted a.nd put down
1t took money out Of members pockets.
To day, again, in the course of the debate
on the subject, it was proposed to reduce the
pay and the mileage of menbers-but the pro-
position was put down by reclamation. No
thing that touches the personal interests of the
members can be restrained.
After all, the great injury inflicted by this
small game on the country consists in the
shameful waste of time, and neglect of impor-
tant duties, which the House owes to the public.
But what is the object of all this shameful
abuse of public time, and of the trust reposed
in Congress! 1t is to raise little eclat for two
or three members who are very weak in their
own districts, and wish to get back again to
Congress Ten to one they loose the game
What must their constituents be, if such re(or-
mers and reformation can cOnciliate them!
The Senate did not sit to-day.

THE TEMPERANCE CAUSE.

A new interest has been created in our CON-
munity in this great cause, which we trust, un'
der the blessing Of Divine Providence, will be
productive of the happiest results. This inter
est has been excited by the lectures OF MI j.
F. CAREY, reformed drunkard OF the wash
ngton Society of Baltimore, who has, tor foul
NIGHTS, .laboured assiduuusly with us; in detail
ING the melancholy results of intemperance IN
his own case, and in that Of others, which ne
ccssarly came under his observation while IN
dulgng in this pernicious and destructive haolt
ARGUMENTS and exhortatons were drawn from
these cases. well calculated to induce, II any
thing can, the Incorporate to REFORM and the
sober and rejecting portion of the community
to lend their aid and eountenance' IN pushlhg
forward this great moral reformation.
Mr.. C.Rry in the course OF his lectures eX-
planned the principles of the Washington socle-
ty, and the pledge it has adopted The Wash. /
ington Society abjures all denunciatlon' as well
against the drunkard asthe dealer and dlstliler;
these are to be convinced, if possible OF the
error of their way, and persuaded, kindly and
afTectionatey, to abandon their course. :,
The following is the pledge adopted BY the
Society of which Mr.. CAREY is member anu
Which lie offers for the adoption OF those to
whom lie speaks:-
awe whose names are hereunto annexed,
desirous of forming Society for our mutual
benefit, and to guard against per,n,lc Gus Pfac-
ticc whichis injurious to oar health, standing
and families, do pledge ourselves, as gentlemen
not to drink any SPIRITUous OR MALT hieUoHs' eel
WINE OR CIDER"
This pledge, it will be seen covers the whole
ground, and proves to the world the, the honesty
and sincerity of those who adopt it, and puts 10
silence the objections, or a, least many Of then,'
which are urged against those pledges "''''n
nerpit the use of Wine. Between thirty and
forty have already signed this pledge in our COM
munity, and we earnestly hope and expect 10
see the number doubled in very shorI time;
there are many who ought to sgn it for their own
safety. and there are many others who ought to DO
so, for the purpose of sustaining and supporting
the weak and the waverlng. SO

Tup R,NK CAsE.-The Court of Errors decl-
ded on the 9th inst that the Bank OF Charleston
had not forfeited its Charter by suspendlng spe-
Gle pavments in 1887. This decision is baseu'
(Says the Courier) on the ground that even con-
cedinr such suspension to have been cause OF
forfeiture, the legislature OF the State had re-
leased the forfeiture, l. BY amending the charter
of the Bank in 1889, and thereby recognizing it
as asubssting legal corporation, after the ALLEGED
ed forfeiture. 2. b. adopting the Report OF the
Committee of Ways and Means, in 1887, which
sanctioned the suspension of that year. The
Bank of Charleston did not suspend in 1889 and
its charter is therefore safe, although it has re-
fused to accept the provisions OF the anti-suspen-
sion law of 1910. This decision, it will be per-
ceived, is also complete protectlonto to the coun-
try banks, none ofwhich suspended in 1889, and
all of which, like the Bank of Charleston, rejected
the Act Of 1910.
Chancellor D. Johnson, President of the
Court, announced that the case against the Bank
of South Carolina was ordered to be re-argued,
on the first day of the next session OF the Court
Of Errors, at Columbia, in November next, when
the case wouldbe argued before a full bench,
