Oh 1.-THE bills, New-Yesrs bills
What a world Of misery
Their memory lnstills
As the merchants with their quilts
Stuck behind their ears politei'
So Caressingly invite
Your kind and prompt attention
To their bills
How they dun, dun, dun,
As they kindly urge upon
Your earnest attention to their blessed bills,
Little bills
With power OF peroration,
And q NAV that never fills,
What sad discrimination
To call them Title bills!
While all the tin that tinkles
In your pockets only sprirkles
A little liquidation on the
Bills
"Oh the destiny that fills
All our holidays with bills,
When We know the New Years dinner
or the poor indebted sinner
Might he cooked with the fuel OF his bills
Oh the bills, bills, bills,
Nothing else hut bills i'i

THAT ORDINANCE.

We publish somerhere in this issue, somewhat
remarkable Ordinance, emenating from the Town
Council of Yorkville. 1t is the most arbitrary
exercise of s'little brief authority that we
have ever heard of. If the prosperity, of the vii
lage or district would he promoted by this extra
ordinary proceeding on the part of the Council,
we would remain silent; but as it is at war with
every consideration Of interest both to the planter
and merchaut-in fact with every class of the
community, we most solemnly protest against it.
Where do You get your authority gentlemen! The
broadest possible construction, will not give it to
you under the Charter. There is not provision
in it, that gives you the slightest semblance of au-
thority. Even if there was ample authority for
such course, what good purpose would be sub
served by adopting it:
Is the interest of the planters Of the District
protected or promoted by such au Ordinance -
Will they be enabled to get better prices for their
produce We have tried to learn the why and
the wherefore Of this strange proceeding, and the
only prete1t that is given, is that nonresident
Cotton buyers pay no taxes! This is simply RI
diculous. The money they scatter broadcast
throughout the District is far greater considera-
ton than a me .e nominal tax paid into the treas
ury. Is it the small tax paid by few resident
cotton buyers that establishes market here p
Will the planters of the District be content to re-
ceve less price for their produce, simply because
the buyer pays tax into the treasury Of the
Town Council:
If you impose this tax on the cotton buyer, Of
course the farmers have it to pay. The presump-
tion arises that he can afford to pay so cents
more on the bale than other buyers. but when the
tax is imposed, he must lower his price, and the
interest of the planter suffers to that extent. 1t
was surely a short-sighted policy that originated
such . measure, and one that will very seriously
affect the pecuniary affairs of our District. 1t
result in good to none, not even to resident cot
ton buyers themselves, because it is q direct stab
at our traSe, and will cause it to seek another
channel, and leave US without market. We hope,
therefore, the Town Council will at once retrace
their steps, and avoid the evil consequences that
will Inevitably result from it. Not that We consid
er their action legal, but if persisted in, it will Gre
ate prejudice that will operate unfavorably to
the best interest and prosperity of our village and
District.

THE SLAVE TRADE.-Thc Southern papers talk
of re-opening the foreign slave trade. Should
such be the case, we shall expect to see general
illumination in Bosson. tits a notorious fact that
the African slave trade has been is now, and ii,
oil probability always will be, carried on by Nor
thern hands. The vessels engaged in that trade
nre built and owned in New York and New Eng
land, and are manned mostly by New Englanders.
1t would seem little inconsistent that Abolition
lists should be in favor of the slave trade, with oil
the horrors of the middle passage, brt the ncon-
sstency is not real. Revive the slave trade, and
they enlarge the sphere Of their commercial ope-
rations, supply the South with negroes with one
hand and steal them away with the other This
has been their mode of operations from the be-
ginning. and we suppose it will continue so to the
end-Syracuse Courier 49,. 20 -. r-s..,

SOUTH CAROLINA LEGISLATURE.
EDITORIAL CORRESPONDENCE.

TUESDAY, Dec. g.
The discussion in reference to the repeal Of the
Usury laws was resumed in the Senate, yesterday,
on Mr. Porter's amendment. This as rejected
by decided vote, and on recurring to the original
bill the whole matter was dismissed by vote Is
to 24-Mr. McCaw voting against the bill. No
proceedings of special interest were had, in that
body, to-day.
In the House, an animated debate occurred on
the Report of the special Committee on the Slave
Trade asking leave to sit during the recess of the
Legislature and to report at the next session. Mr.
Yeadon moved that the consideration of the sub
ject be indefinitely postponed, and he was warmly
supported by Messrs. Mitchell, Perry and Pope,
of Charleston. Messrs. F. D. Richardson, FL
liott, Mullins and Dantzler warmly advocated the
extension of time asked for by the Committee, on
the grounds mainly that proper courtesy to the
special Committee forbid such summary dispo
sol of the subject, and that the Importance of the
question demanded that they be allowed ample
time for an elaborate and careful consideration
The debate really involved no expression of opin-
ion as to the expediency or propriety Of reopen
ing the lave-trade; and the vote approving the
recommendation Of the Committee, was given dis
tinctly on the ground of courtesy to them and to
the Governor, and Of correct regard for the
weighty import Of the matter under consideration.
As have before indicated, though utterly oppo-
sed to the policy recommended in the Message,
think the vote giving time to the Committee emf
nently proper. Messrs. Chambers and Moore vo-
ted in the affirmative; and Messrs. Black and
White in the negative.
Mr.. Memminger made long and exceedingly

FRIDAY Evening, Dec. 10.

Ihipht ENenliiG, Dec. l..
My letter of Tuesday, notice, did not appear
in this weeks issue; and presume it did not
reach you in time. You must place the censure
upon the Post Office at this place. At any rate
the fault is not mine.
have been more than once taken to task for
my wholesale criticism upon the calibre of the
country delegation, in the last ExeuIRER. To tell
the truth, the remark was rather too WHOLESALE; ;
but think the most evenly-tempered among you
would have been provoked to make it. You re-
member that it was written in connection with the
the resolutions in regard to bank taxation. This
measure had for US but ono face: right in princi-
pie, correct in policy just to all and conservative
of our own interests in its practical operation, the
resolution ought to have received the hearty sup
port of every member from the rural Districts
Nevertheless, the Charleston Delegation, looking
solely to the interests of their constituency, united
against it, and rode rough-shod through the ring.
When the debate ended, Mr.. Wnsmith could not
gather around him corporal's guard. Now,
doubtless, there are several very able men in the
House, outside of Charleston; but can that kind
of ability be called talent which, when it is called
for, provesitself inefficient and devoid of influence:
Within my experience, know Of scarcely sim
gle important act of legislation which has been
effected against the influence of the Charleston
Delegation. They "rule the rancho This is
what meant to say, and, like the notable witness,
"stck to t'';-not from any feeling of partlali-
ty, however: for have yet to acquire enough of
the dogs spirit to ''love the whip" that constantly
! lashes me.
!, In the House, last evening, Mr.. BoylstoA's bill
"to amend the judiciary system of this State,
passed the second reading by majority of 3-Mes-
srs. Chambers and White in the affirmative, and
and Mr. Black in the negative. This bill provides
for an additional Judge and Solicitor new cir
cult, through Encouragement OF existing cir
cults, and that the appeal court shall, as OF pres
ent, consist of six have before alluded to the
effect upon the courts in our locality. The de-
ranpement of the circuits is the only ground OF
serious opposition. Every member desires to pre-
serve his own locality harmless, and such Is the
extent of the dissatisfaction that, if the Senate
approve the bill, would not be surprised If the

PAYING \ MEMBER roR Do1SG NoTnfsa,-The
act Of the last session for compensating members
Of Congress pays members about SIS per day for
attendance, and deducts So 3S5 for each day's ab-
sence; so that member who stays away during
his whole term will henceforth be entitled to draw
about $4,000 from the treasury. Thisiis pretty
good premium for doing nothing. If the principle
is right of making deduction on account Of .ab.
sence, the amount deducted should at least be
equal to the amount received for being present
