Din. Toombs' Bankruptcy BIN.


The following is an abstract of the
Bill to establish a uniform system OF
Bankruptcy throughout the United
States, which was reported to the Sen
ate on Wednesday, May 5, by Senators
Toombs and Benjamin, q majorityof the
Judiciary Committee.
The Bill contain twenty-thrce scc-
tons:
Section 1. Bankrupts are divided in
to two classes-the voluntary aud in
voluntary; the former consisting of per-
sons generally who are unable to pay
their debts, and who choose to avail
themselves of tho provisions Of the Act;
the latter, of individuals in trade, who
by some fraudulent proceeding evince,
a disposition to wrong their creditors,
or some of them. In compulsory cases
the bankrupt may have jury trial.
Section provides against payments
and transfers made in contemplation OF
bankruptcy. ~
Section declares that by the decree
of bankruptcy the title Of the bank
rupt to his property is Invested, and be-
comes vested in the assignee. Bat nec-
essary household effects, not exceeding
in value three hundred dollars, are to be
exempt, together with what ever prop
erty is exempt from execution by the
laws of the State.
Section grants release to bank
rupts who fully comply with the re
quirements Of the Act ninety days after
the decree, and after seventy days ad-
vertisement in a public newspaper, I'M
less one-fourth in number and value of
the creditors file their written dissent
Ii also provides infinitely against frauds,
and specifies the course to be pursued
in appeals.
Section 5-The property of bank
rupts is to be divided pro rata. Prefer
ences only given to debts due to the
United States to sureties who are en-
titled to preference by the laws of Con-
gress; and laborers in the employ of
the bankrupt to an amount not exceed
ing twenty-five dollars.
Sections 6 and Z give full jurisdiction
in bankruptcy cases to the United
States District Courts, and direct what
shall take place.
Section 8 confers upon the United
States Circuit Courts concurrent juris-
diction in certain cases.
Section directs the manner in which
assgnecs shall discharge their duties.
Section 10-The Court shall order a
collection of the assets, a sale of the
same, and a distribution of the pro-
cecds without unreasonable delay.
Section IL defines certain powers of
Section 12-No person to be a second
line entitled to the benefit of this Act
unless he pays seventy five cepte on the
iollar. 80 .es 800 i

Mr.. EDlroR ut is raining again this

a few hits at some rowdy boys you
seem 10 be troubled with. You can't
hit them lick amiss, but if reports be
true, some of them need, and will get
a nice load of small shot about their
calres, --excuse me, mean the calves OF
their legs As the other expression
reads, you might think they would get
badly hurt, as they are calres all orer.-
OF course no decent young lady keeps
company with thost peace aisturbcrs.
We are not annoyed by any such boys
here, and our property is safe at night,
1t was my privilege TO visit the city
Of ConncrsyiIIe not long since, and
while there 1 visited the graded
school where our quondam friend Bra

airs in attendance, and I,never saw a

appears to be working well, aud the
building is tho bestI ever saw for such
purposes. Mrs. Brady seems to feel
perfectly at home surrounded by 30 or
go young Misses. hope the school
may long prosper. also had the
pleasure of visiting Cambridge, and
was pleased to find Rev. A. Mcfarland
in good health, and in a toIerablc good
humor. He has lately been shamefalIy
treated by some processing christians of
that city. But after a long examina-
ton of the frivolous charges brought
against him, he was declared perfectly
innocent, and his illnatured prosecutors
received well deserved rebuko. What
great pity that one or two narrow
minded bigots should be permitted to
rulc any church. Yet such is often the
case, and some Bombastes is heard TO
exclaim 81 am Sir Oracle, and when /
ope my mouth, let no dog bark" Well,
one dog is enough to bark at a time, and
such men as these who dictate TO the
many, are generally rather canine in
their proclivities. In one sense of the
word pity Mr.. Mcfarland, and in an
other ] do not. lie loses toIcrable
living for time, but he leaves place
where Goldfish aristocracy seems to rule.

next time. I hope So There is moth

Mr.. EDIroR:--I have been a constant
reader of your valuable paper since
your first issue, but have seen nothing
in it from Andersonvillc. Perhaps II
will be of into esqhe of-your rea-
ders to hear s5hNlhingfrom this remote
corner of Franklin. In the main every
thing in our quiet village seems to glide
smoothly onward. Notwithstanding
the money pressure, the merchants OF
this place have purchased more extern
slveIy this spring than hitherto. Messrs.
Moore and Barber have just received an
extensive and wellsclected stock of dry
goods and groceries. They are now
supplying their customers with spring
goods at fast rate. r. Shriner has
also received his spring stock. r. III.
Powers has sold his cntire stock of goods
to Mr.. Worrel Of Cincinnati. If Mr.,
Worrel's trade should equal that of Mr..
Powers. (and we see no reason why it
should not,) we feel assured that he will
have no reason % & ies having come
among us. Our town is well supplied
with merchants, mechanics and physi-
clans, but there is one thing wanting,
which is indispensably requisite to a
thriving and interesting village. We
