Palmetto Sentinel, Blackvilie S. C.

Our unknO,cn brother, the editor of IN.
Sentinel replies to our notice of his paper,
and more particularly to that portion in
which we say rs follows: Somehow or
other we cannot understand this supporting
Southern Institutions, and yet, 90 with the
State for veal or. wo. Suppose South
Carolina renounccd slavery, how then The
Sentinel apprehends no danger on the part
OF the State departing from the principle il
has ever believed TO be to her interest and
coaiescing with other States opposed TO
savery, and says:
AS we apprehcud no danger on the part
OF the State, we expressed no fears
We hardly think even now, that We shall
ever be called nponto follow ST te, whose
efforts have, at all times, been zc:lously and
magnanimousiy put forth. TO build up, foster
and defend the rights of the tie and insti-
tutions OF the South, into that strange sub
version of policy TO tear down and dcmolish
that which she has with steady and fixed
purpose aimed 10 establish and perpctuatc." :"
This is all right enough, but we will give
our unknoWn brother our reason for pro-
pounding the inquiry. Every paper that is
started now days in the Southern Country,
takes slavery as the hobby to ride on into pop
u!ar favor and not unfrcquently the editors
who may be North rn men, -take this as
their strong fort. ! hey declare war a.

there is another, though of less magnitude
well calculated to est bi>h and promote
their intcrcsts-this is TO 60 for the State
for veal or Won hit or wrong 10 20 for
the State. Now we would consider our
self deficient of all p lriotism, to advocate
or even sanction all the State would do. If
am sccessionist, and the Site decides
on remaining in the u ion, must profess to

the article in the Ledger oflast week, copied
ffom the South Carolinian, and headed
Bitter Words" which in our humble opin-
ion reflects with unmerited severity upon
one of Carolina's most valuable citizens and
most faithful public servants. ....-.a,.-
1t is not by any means our purpose, Mr..
Editor, to attempt defense of the truly
"great and good man" to whom that article
alludes; for, sir, well aware are we that the
name of John Bolton O'Neal is of itself a
bulwark impregnable to the attacks of any
foe, and amply sufficient to afford protec-
ton under any and every assault. In PEN
ming these lines therefore, we simply act in
obedience to that better part of our nature,
to whose influence we trust we shall never
be insensible, and which prompts us, at all
times, and under all circumstances, to "render
unto Caesar the things which are Caesars"
We think that the remarks of the Carroll
nian are calculated to create erroneous i'm
pressions in the minds of some Of your rea-
ders who may not have seen Judge ONeal's
letter in the Temperance Advocate of April
lst. 1t is evident even from the extract which
elected the structures alluded to, that the
Judge had been virulently assailcd through
the columns Of the Winnsboro Register by
two several correspondents, because he had
thought proper to defend Mr.. White (oi
whom we have not word to saw from
charges which he at least, believed to BE-
false and unfounded. 1t is farther apparent
that the expression, "Fanatic ofTcmpcranc,
and submissionist in politics" did not origi
nate with his Honor, but were the cpthet.
uncourteously used by these correspondent.

ference to these assailants do SAVIOR some

if no allowance can be made for the EXPIRES
sions of sensitive and noble spirit. conscious
of the purity Of its motives, and the disin
terested bencvolence of its intentions who,

We will trespass no longer upon the pa

The Credit System.

We received an anonymous communication
some time since, in which the writer in ad-
verting to the Homestead Exemption, re.
marked, that If the credit system were aban-
doned, there would be no use 10 exempt
any property from levy and sale. No one
is in favor Of tho Cash System more than
we are, and could it be adopted, it would
tend greatly to decrease the amount Of our
national expenditures, but, it is perfectly
useless to recommend system which can
not be adopted. Man is a dependant being,
and in all the relations oflifc each member
of society is dependent on his brother In
fact, this dependence is the connecting link
which unites man TO man, and is the impul-
sive power which generates feelings of graf
itude in the heart of man.
individuals are made thus dependent up
on each other, in ordefto render harmony,
peace, and mutual assistance, their interest
MS well as their duty. Where men are mu-
tually dependent upon each other, the pros
perity Of one is the prosperity of all and
the adversely Of one is the adversely of all.
Nc enc can enjoy many of the blessings
which God has intended for him. only In so
lar as others enjoy them also and no one
can be deprived Of them, unless others are
deprived of them TO considerable degree
also. Thus, we see that the individual pro-
gress Of man, is, by the constitution Of things
indissolubly connected with, if not absolute
ly dependent on, his Sociaiprogress."
The moro numerous are exchanges, the
better il is for every community, this is evi-
dent to every one who understands the first
principles of Political Economy Now We
conceive that II law were enacted restrict
ing credit, that the exchanges of such COM
munity would necessarily be decreased, In
the city Of New York or Charleston, Il does
not appear that the credit system is so much
adopted as here in LAheaster, or in any part
Of our upper country, yet it is equally exten-
aiEe only in different form. A Dry Goods

Col. J. Chestnut, Jr.

This gentleman has been nominated in
the Columbia State Rights Repubican,by
one of its correspondents, As the successor
of the Hon. J. A. Woodward, in the u. S.
Congress. Col Ohesnut is well known
to our readers to be, not only an accom-
plished gentleman, but also an able and
distinguished politican.-FarfeldHerdid.
~ We know of no gentleman in eth
er District, comprising this, the third Con-
gressional District, more able, or better cal
culated to represent us in Congress Than
Col. Chestnut
His well known ability, added TO his affl-
bic and courteous manners renders him one
our people love to honor, and certainly no
better, or more judiciCus selection could
have been made.

from the sale of his dry goods. This Is
wholesale credit system, he borows his
friends endorsements; and then borrows from
the Bank. Whether this be the best mode
we cannot say-it ~ be from the fact, that
the purchaser finds by close calculation, that
the amount saved from paying Cash, far ex-
ceeds the interest he pays TO the Bank for
the loan Of the money.
There are one or two reasons why this
plan could not be adopted in our up country.
In the first place Banks are not convenient
to us, and in the next place rs most of our
community are farmers. they should not
borrow money from the Bank
This is the reason why lhey should not:
1t is impossible for farmer to promise he
can meet the payment of note, which runs
but sixty or ninety days, when he is unable
to say if his crop will bring him sufficient to
meet the payment, and he could only Dor:
row II the sixty or ninety davs preceding
the period when the note would become
due. He may have his note renewed. So
he may, but it is not always such an arrange
ment can be effected, and when pressing ne
cessity comes, he will be obliged perhaps to
sacrifice property to pay his note. A farm
er has no business to mcddle with Banks.
his business does not require much fnancier
knowledge, and rs it is on avocation calcu-
lated to be freer from the troubles and tur.
moils of life more than any other it should
be the aim of tn farmer to try and make Il
so. So soon as he gets in invciglcd fnancier-
ing and money speculatious, he loses a relish
for that which he intended to devote his
time and attention to. In our Stores. man
who is known 20 have the property to paw
his debts, can obtain goods on one years ere
dit, or Mt least he is expected to settle the
nrst of every January. If his crop hn-, fo;-
led to bring him in p sufficient sum .:;,;ct !,
w0u'" enable him to pay these debts. he
gives promisory note paying interest from
the first of the year. and frequently it is three
or four years before he finally pays up in
full, but he is known to be good for the
amount and is not perplcxcd and troubled
rs he would be with Bank note.
From these facts we think the credit sys
TEN will always be adopted, and we do Ger.
tainly think it better by far for the farmer
to become indebted to the merchants of hi,
District than the Banks of the State

for it, and can read it or have it rad, would
be a subscriber. Mr.. Arthurs teachings
have such a tendency to smooth down, sOf-

ness of our natures, that if any honest man,
will tell me, after reading it carefully one
year, that he is not wiser, better and more
virtuous, will agree to refund the subscrip.
