New MExIco.-The South Carolinlan,
speaking in laudatory tone of General
Kearney's proceedings in Santa Fe, says:
We know that it is the policy of our 60
yernment now, not to recede one lncn
without the possession forever of this TIL
bute-land-New Mexico md California
1t is not our province to cavll at the meas
ures the administration may deem nj TO
adopt to achieve this desired resuIt-but
we do say that the whole South and West
demand it, They look to the firmness and
integrity Of the President TO secure for
his country this territory, as an equivalent
for the tampering treachery of the Mexl'
can nation. 1t is due TO posterlty that TINS
should be done, and it will become in tu'
ture times, an act which will shed the
blessings of civilization and intelligence
over a people, who otherwise would Ian
guish on in servility, mendacity and bruta
ignorance.
This in our opinion is the proper tone
Z in which an American journal shouI'
speak of the event.

"An Essay on abolishing Securities,
and making all debts debts of honor in
the State of Mississippi"
We have before us a pamphlet with the
above caption. II is written by j. }. Nc
Caughan, who was chairman of commit.
tee during the last session OF our Leglsla-
ture. which committee reported in favor OF
a petition of the citizens of Harrison CO.,
who had asked for the abolishing of all
Ia ws for the forcible adjustment of private
contracts. This pamphlet argues for
very radical measure, but il does not follow
that il would not be beneficial one, be-
cause radical. Indeed, all great reforms,
in their inception and proposing, have al
once been met with this same objection,
NOT argument. 1t is a question OF vas
consequence, and requires and demands
careful and earnest investigation. We ex
messed our opinion favorably TO 1t long
aoo. and have seen nothing and heard no
thing since, to change that opinion. I'M
credit system is the greatest curse eve
/ inflicted upon our people, and the system
of securities, its legitimate evil, Is llK
nnto it. We should rejoice to see the'
both annihilated, and cash and mems no
nor substituted instead of paper promises
j At some future time we intend more eA
