any manner that he may see fit, provided
only that he does not interfere with anoth-
er's right to do the same. Whenever hu-
man liberty is restrained in this particular,
whenever tho individual is forbidden to do
what he has natural right to do, then it
frequently happens that the mans best in
terests conflict with the law, ,and he is tempt
cd to disobey. How long would be the cat
alogue that would only give the titles of all
such laws. II would begin with our license
laws and restrictions upon trade. For free
trade in all things is so natural, so conso-
nant with human liberty, that men are al
ways tempted to break the law by which it
is forbidden. The temptations to err are
thickly strewn in the path of life, and the
law should never add one to the number.
for ages the world has been praying not to
be led into temptation, and yet the laws for
ages have been tempting men to evil. But
the number Of such statutes is diminishing.
since the art of printing first shed its light
upon the world, we have seen these shad-
ows of a darker day disappearing one after
another, like mist before the sun. May
the day Of their e6nt-- zla be hastened! May
the time come when the law will no longer
be the tempter to evil, but only the protec-
ton of right Ohio Press.

during my usual round at night among the
negro huts on the plantation, to see that all
was safe, put my head into the door ol

were very comfortably snoozing, with.theil

BACON.-Thc supply Of Bacon continues
large, but we have no change TO make in our
quotations of this day week
CORN-The advices per last steamer at
Boston, has had a tendency to check the late
high prices of corn. We notice a sale of 600
bushels from Fayetteville at 81 per bushel );
and 1900 bushels, in bags, from Charleston,
at 81 rs, including bags. The stock on hand
is considered very heavy for the season. A
very good Judge informs US that there is about
10000 bushels now in the market, on sale
This Of course is intended to include all in
store. Dealers are selling from store at ST Is
81 90, according to quantity. Meal has Il
so fallen shade, and we quote at ST 20 d
81 IS per bushel

ted by the fall in Europe, but not to that de-
gree here as experienced nthe Northern mar
kets We quote Canal, retail, at 50 rs a SO
so. Some dealers asking more. Fayetteville
is selling at IS so 50 90, with fair supply

The CRops.-We have just finished read
ing an interesting article in the New York
Herald of the 18th inst, in which a general re-
view Is made OF the prospects of the harvest
OF 1877. Although the spring was backward,
and IN many sections he wheat crop may be
considered as entirely cut off, (for it amounted
TO thls,) and in many others, only partial
cropis anticipated, yet we find upon the whole
that the prospect before us leads US to the hap
Ply conclusion, that there must be vast in
crease of grain raised this year over that of
last year. In many places where the wheat
had heen killed out during the winter, corn
crops have been planted, and they bid fair to
yield well. In this section of country, we
have had BEAUTIFUL weather for vegetation, fol
the last month and upwards. We learn from
those with whom we have had an opportu-
nifty OF conversing, that the corn in this Sec
ton, is low, but that it has beautiful green
color, and with good seasons for two months
more there can be no doubt of bountjful har.
vest. We predict that the granaries of Anne
ncsa will be crammed from the products of the
soil of 1917.

MEXICAN PRIvATEERs IN THE MEDITERRA-
NEAN-The Washington Union of Wednes-
day evening makes the following official an
nouncement in reference to the preparations
made by the Government to put stop to the
doings of the Mexican privateers in the Me
diterranean:-
"Orders were sent to the commander of the
African squadron, on the 18th of April last, to
send sloop Immediately to the Mediterra-
mean to guard our commerce against this dan
ger, and to follow her in the frigate United
States early in September. There is every
reason 10 believe that the sloop Marion, with
storeship, has before this arrived at Glbral-
tar, The steamer Princeton is IN active pre-
paration at Philadelphia, and will sail with
out DELAY to the Mediterranean.
"We understand that the administration has
long since taken all the measures which were
! practicable to provide against the occurrence
or repetition of such outrages.
"There is no reason to aPprehend any want
of good faith on the part of the Spanish gov
eminent. The prompt and decisive measures
taken by the governor-general OF cuba unde
orders from his government. which effectually
prevented the sale of the prlyateer licenses
(which were but licenses to commit acts 0
piracy0 Justify US in believing that no coun
tenance will be given by Spain to those wh'
NAV have taken them IN other quarters OF tn

D-The federal candidate for Congress in this
district, has commenced the old tricks of which
his party is always guilty. Instead of con-
filming himself strictly to the principles C) of
his party, he has, in some portion of his ad-
dress which has caused the columns of the
Chronicle to groan for the last three weeks, on
account of its extreme length, brought before the
public what he says was n remark made by
General Mckay, " shortly after a session of
Congress-" Not knowing anything about the
matter in question, of course we do not pre-
tend TO deny MIR. Halls statement But sup
pose Gen. Mckay did say that he had voted
with the wings twice, and that he should not
do it again. Does that go to prove that Gen'l
| Mckay is not fit to represent the people q
! Really, this is a matter which we think Mr.
Hall had as we'll kept dark for we feel quite
sure that the democracy of the district will
appreciate Mckay more highly than ever for
his determination. After what session of
Congress Mr.. Hall alludes to, he does not in
form us. But we see no use in wasting pa
per in defence of Gen. Mckay the people ap-
prcciatc his talents and worth too highly to
suffer such pitiful charges as Mr.. Hall has
seen fit to make, to swerve them from the path
OF duty which they owe to their Republican
principles in again electing Gen'l Mckay as
| their representative to Congress.

SANTA ANNA's LETTERING alluded in our
last number, to the letter of Gen Santa Anna,
resigning his post as president pro tem of the
republic of Mexico. AS our readers may be
curious to see what he has to say for himself,
VIC have thought it advisable to give place to
the letteE in this days Journal We believe
with Mr. Kendall of the Picayunc, that "as a
nation, Mexico is blotted out OF the list; the
candle of her independence is burnt down to
the socket" and the United States will have
to take her, as last resort, under her own
protection for it has been plainly demonstra-
ted from the course she has pursued towards
u.s. that she is utterly unable 10 govern her
self. We believe that that portion of her peo-
pie who are disposed to listen to reason, but
who are keptdown by the military despotism OF
the government, and who will be able to dis
cover the benefits to be derived from our form
of government, will crave the protection of the
United States. This will evidently be theil
jnterest-and having sense enough to see it
they will be apt not to let the golden momen
slip. Just SO soon as the American arms may
have taken possession OF the Capital, we an
ticipate that something of the kind will be
proposed

SPECULATING IN STARyATIoN.-Our exchan-
ges received since the arrival of the laststeam-
er, informs Us that many Of the spectators
will be " ruined by the fall of Breadstuffs on
the other side of the Atlantic" We are not
in the habit of exulting over the misfortunes
of any one, but, if we were to speak just what
we think about the course pursued by those
who have seen fit to speculate in starvation.
to an extent entirely unwarranted by any
news received in this country from Europe.
during the whole time since the first in
teIligence of the deplorable condition of the
people of Ireland and Scotland was received
we should certainly say that the spectators
are not to be pitied in the least. They were
warned OF the consequences of such a course
as they have pursued, months ago, both BY
the press OF this country and of Europe We
are always gratified to see the farmer rewar-
ded TOR his labor, amply rewarded, but we are
certainly opposed to such excessive extremes
as Breadstutfs have, within the last month
experienced. Instead of doing the farmer a
benefit, it is an injury inflicted upon him by a
set of knaves who care for nothing but their
own welfare. He will loose all confidence in
those who have the control of the markets
for his produce, and when his confidence is
gone, he will assuredly turn his attention to
some other pursuit We look upon the mat
ter, perhaps, in different light from many
others, but we can see no good that is calcu-
lated to result from fictitious prices. There
must be a stopping place to all things, and
when an article goes beyond its highest pima.
Gle, it must begin to look downwards, and it is
invariably the case, that when it once begins
to tumble, it goes with such force, that it is
apt to crush the very persons that were in
strumental in advancing it above its real val
ue. Such, it seems, has been the result of thu
late speculatons in Breadstuffs.
