CHRISTMAS.

This number Of our paper is issued upon
the eve Of that day, which, from time i'm
memorial, has been set apart rs a season Of
rest and mcrrimen,. Many of our readers
doubtless anticipate much pleasant festivity,
and all n spell of recreation. We sincerely
hope that none will be disappointed, and
heartily wish all our patrons, n very merry
Christmas.
IL is Z dcbatabic question, whether Editors
and Printers are entitled TO share the sports
of this annual jubilee. A majority in onr
office, are clearly of the opinion, that they
have just as much right to spend a jolly
Christmas, as anybody else ; but a minority
having less extended ideas of the privileges
of the craft, dissent from this unheard of
assumption, and n compromise has been eff
fcctod, by which, our readers may expect n
half sheet next week. Whoever objects to
this, has but small compassion for the toll
ing Typo, and can clam no affinity to the
Bard of Avon, who says
Sweet recreation bard, what doth ensure,
But moody and dull melanch oily.

We are not given 10 eNtravagant proini-
ses, neither does it suit us so speak in praise
of our own work. We submit it to the
judgment of an intelligent people, believing
that it will be appreciated according to its
merits. But the present year being nearly

the next, rs very favorable time TO renew,
and begin subscriptions for the Ledger. We
would like exceedingly to enter a few dozen
names to begin with the first number in
January, and believe that III Increase to
our list cap be made evon in this District.

We do not appeal to your District pride. OF

an enterprise Of this sort, but we rromise
full value received for any assistance that
we receive, inasmuch, as it will enable us,

to the interest and value Of our paper
Many improvements can be made, and some
we have in contemplation we say there
fore to 0n-suLscribers, that n trial in any
event, will not cost them much, and if health
and circumstance allow, we will well re-
pay them for their small Investment.

extended to us a liberal support, We return

SOUTH CAROLINA LEGISLATURE

We give from the Carolina Times n con.
dcnscd report Of the action Of this Body on
"Wednesday the 9Th inst. We observe moth
ing of much import in the proceedings OF
the two previous days. a Bill providing
for the repeal Of the present usury laws,
was discussed in the House but finally, il
was agreed that the bill be indefinitely post
poned. This matter has engaged the attcn-
ton Of the Legislature for one or two Ses-
sions past. Much may be said, both in IA
vor and against, the restrictions in r%e'ation
to the percentage upon money at interest.
Such restrictions serve in a measure, to pre-
vent impositions but the friends of the re-
peal contend that money should be allowed
10 find its marketable value, as everything
else, in proportion to the supply and de-
mand, and there is certainly much reason in
this latter view of the case.
The General Assembly adjourned on
Saturday goth inst, after having passed a
larger nut Der of Acts than usual. We
will publish n list Of them next week. The
last few days of the Session. the Members
seem 10 have gone to work in good earnest
and business Was disposed of rapidly. We
hope that the services of Members may be
acknowledged in n b"fitting manner, and
that each may have the qualification OF
knowing, that he has performed his duty
satisfactorily to himself and to his constitu.
