South Carolina Money.

i
The Charleston Courier contains
the following article in regard to
South Carolina Money: !
Runners are very current in other
States to the prejudice Of the notes
Of the Banks in this State; and our
bankers and business men are in
daily receipt of letters asking infor-
nation, aud expressing great distrust
of our Bank notes. Ia some COM
munlties we learn they are r,pre-
scented TO the uninformed as utterly
worthless.
To all the holders Of the bills of
our banks we would say that they
need have no fears whatever, in re-
ceiving, passing, and in keeping our
Bank notes. The action OF our Leg
iislature, 10 respect to the suspension
of cur Banks, was simply to remit
that penalty due to the State by a
Bank in a state Of suspension, and
does not operate in any scay 10 lessen
The security Of the note holder. No
Bank notes in the United States are
better secured than these of South
Carolina. They are not based upon
! public securities, which ia time Of
pressure arG public difficulty could
only be realized at a heavy sacrifice,
which the note helder must bear; bu,
by an article in every charter Of
every Bank in this State the stock

stock held By them respectively. A.
none Of our Banks are mouopolles
, but owned by many shareholders, il
is probable that nearly. if not quite
the whole, amount thus pledged
for their security, could be realized
+ by the creditors Of the Banks, if So
, much should be necessary TO satisfy
theil demands.
Our Banks are entirely solvent
their own assets being largely in
excess Of their liabilities to the public
Under this system Of management
, and responsibility, We can poiot with
pride to fact that no Bank, legally or
gsnized in this. State. has ever failed.

stockholders

this we would say that in going out

tending for a principle of honor. aud

their sutfrages for Abraham Lincoln.

earnestly curse the bigger lights Of
the Northern press, pulpit and stump,
who led them like blindfolded cat.

repentance comes teo late. They

the terrible consequences. They

Horrible Tragedy.

We learn that Mr.. Robert Thompson and wife
were brutally butchered on the night Of Tuesday,
the 21st ult. MFR. Thompson was merchant and
postmaster at Sugar Valley, and was deformed
man. Or Wednesday morning, his remains were
found near his store his face much bruised and his
skull split open. Near by was bloody AK aud an
extnguished torch. His wife was found in bed,
ana from alI appearances was killed with sedge
hammer or, perhaps. with the head of the axe.
This couple occupied as a sleeping apartment 9
room in the rear of the store, and there were no
other persons in the house. A lady living IN a
house short distance off heard persons talking in
the night but her suspicious not being excited she
fell asleep again. There Is an intense excitement
in the neighborhood where this foul outrage was
committed. The affair is allwrapt in mystery, and
no clue discovered yet by which the murderers can
be detected. Mr.. Thompson was an industrious
citizen and highly respected. 1t is supposed the
scoundrels stole about SO to compensate them for
their yillainy. We hope they may be ferreted out
and receive the severest punishment the law can
inflict TRome (Ga.1 Courier.

From the St. Joseph Gazette we extract the fol-
| lowing;
The mail in from Denver City yesterday brings
US papers to the 18th inst The Rocky Mountain
News has the following ITEMS which will be read
with interest:
We hear from the mountains that new guleh
has been discovered few miles beyond Gregorys,
of fabulous richness excelling seven the famous
Russell's. The gulch is ten miles long.
Seventeen hundred dollars was realized one day
last week from the crushing, by the LIE Never mill
of two cords of quartz, mixed with iron pyrtes,
from the Gnnnell Lead.
The weather still continues very pleasant, The
snow is all gone from the plains and disappearing
rapidly from the mountains. The days are SO
warm that we are not obliged to keep fires in our
office, except in the mornings and evenings.
THAT Big NUGGET.-Quite stir was created last
week by the report of the discovery of six-pound
nugget near Gregory's. 1t was said to have but
little quartz about it. Some of our heavy mer
chants sent Immediately to purchase it, offering
SIG per ounce in coin--came back with fleas in
their ears Our sprightly little neighbor, the
Mountaineer, gave the names of the fortunate
finders, and valued the 6 chunk" at over twelve
hundred dollars; but the mother declined to part
with the little darling for even those fabulous
figures all in coin-and the value Of big Jumps
has materially deprecated among bachelor specu-
latofs. How is it gentlemens
Discussing the probability of a heavy influx of
miners, the News says:
Adsenturers are disposed to be too sanguine,
thinking that every days delay is a loss of ten,
twenty or hundred dollars while the fact is, that
in nine cases out of ten they will not be adyan-
tagged one dollar for all the time they may spend
here prior to the opening OF the mountain regions
for advantageous prospecting and mining opera
tions and every days idleness after their arrival is
positive loss, not only pecunialily. but in the
anxiety and depression of spirit and energy conse-
quent upon dleness

SHE HAS SEEN THEM.-There is a lady in our
town at present who would not like to be called
very old, who has seen ten out Of the fifteen Presi
dents Of the United States, and has also seen
Henry Clay, Webster, John g. Calhoun, Aaron
Peel, Lord Wellington and Queen Victoria. She
has sat in the chair occupied by Queen Victoria in
Westminster Abbey, on the day Of her coronation,
and would have seen Louis Philippe, had it not
been for the death Of bis son at the time. This is
indeed very remarkable, and We challenge the
