Palmetto Taxation.

A friend of oRrs. whose statements are wor-
thy of implicit confidence, informed US on
Monday, that one Of the most respectable il m
porters in this city called ut his Office. in Wall
street, last week, aud showed him letter
which he had received from one Of the sound
est and largest merchants in Charleston. The
merchant wrote the importer that be had suf-
fcred note of $3.50 to be returned under pro-
test, for the reason that he could not pzt it.,
and the reason why be could not pay it was,
that man with epauletts on his shoulders,
attended by possee Of retainerS, had just
been TO his store. and after examining his stock
demanded u check for S2,5OO for the Palmetto
government aud the merchant. thouEh earn
estly denlurring, was compelled TO give it, to
save his goods from cOnfscation! The same
epauletted muurader Immediately went to a
neighboring merchant and obtained II check
for $4,000, by the force Of the same threat

The Generalization Of the people OF the cx-
tremc South, resulting from the revolutionary
proCe dings in that section, and the wide
spread excitement, general arming with dead
ly weapons and lamentable indulgence in bard
drinking. is producing an unprecedented crop
Of murders. We have read the leading pa-
pers in the Southern States with care and
regularity, for years. and we have never secn
so many accounts of bloody encounters and
assassinations as within u few weeks past
There are days when ne might clip from our
Southern exchanges columns of paragraphs
in which the results or desperate personal con
ficts are given. There could be no more ter
rible proof Of the dcmoraliztd condition Off
large portion Of the South. They are now
suffering in the disturbance Of their own peace
the worst of the evils Of war; and they arr
slaug ghtering each other with a strange fur,
that would seem incredible /! it were not aSso-
ciated with q mania for suicide, politically and
commercially. The logic of the secession
movement seems to be that next to cutting
your own nose eff to spite your face, the best
thing is cutting your neighbor's throat Nev-
er in Southern Europe, in Corsica or in Italy,
where assassination has betn reduced TO ID
fine art, and its arts and understood duties
were hereditary. has there been such
loss of lifein personal combats as in the
Southern States at this time. The
historian will turn over the files Ofrhe South
ern papers Of these days some generations
hence with amazement. and may well be puz
zed to decide whether the cause or effect 0!
secession is seen in the bloody scenes recorded
We are confident that within a month past
we have seen in Southern papers accounts OF
the killing Of one hundred men, while many
others have been desperately wounded. I'll,
fighting is of the most reckless and murdcrous
character. The weapons used nre occasionally
rifles and shot guns, but generally Lowic
knives and revolvers. 1t seems to be point
of honor to kill OF be killed. Men iuflamed
with drink stub and shoot each other with a
persistency perfectly ficndish. One of these
street or har room fights is more barbarous
and dangerous than dozen duels. The code
of honor should be cultivated in the South, a.
IA humanitarian measure. 1t might discourage
the hideous, worse than Mayloy, mucks, run
with pistol and knife by mndmen which is the
prevailing style. Something of recklessncss
Of human life has long been remarked as char
ucteristic Of the people of this country, and
the strongest development of this characteris-
tic has been in the SOuth-wheTe every obser-
want citizen must know that the shedding Of
blood in private difficulties is growing cyi.
OF fearful proportions.

WHAT IS HE woRrHp

John Doe is a man of large possessions
He has houses lands. stocks, and all the ap-
purtenances of q man Of wealth. He is in
dustrious. shrewd and successful. His neigh
bors and the money changers say he is worth
great deal. aud so he is, if mans worth
must be measured by the length Of bis purse.
But real man is something else, and more
than the gold and silver he happens TO own {;
and, therefore, the gospel of Mammon, and
its credulous dupeS, err i'll opinion and lie
against the truth, when they pronounce John
Doe worth a great deal, just because be is
rich for worth and wealth are not synony
nous or convertible terms and rich man
may be very worthless one.
None are really worth any more or less
than the characters they possess, and their fit
ness for doing good to others. If one be ig-
norant, selfish and miscriy, he may sport a
carriage in Broadway, yawn at the opera,
lodge in Fifth avenue, and create a great sell
sation in Wall street.
But if be asked, to what purpose does this
man live? What is he worth to his fellow
men What good does he do in the world :?
Echo then answers, what? Like sponge, he
grows distendcd and dropsical with borrowed
matter; and if he be thoroughly squeezed,
and made to part with his fictitious weight he
becomes as light and worthless as geSsamer,
for he has no internal solidity Of character
He has transmitted himself into gold, and
when that is gone, the man is gone too
! There are some everywhere, of great posses
sons, who resemble nothing 50 much as a re-
ceiving vault of cemetery, which locks up
IL. -
dreary precincts. No appeal of sorrow, no
cry for aid no glorious promise OF future
good, no prophetic voice, or angel whisper OF
love can penetrate or dispel the putrid COM
posure that rcigIs within.
And thus Mr.. John Doe may fill mp the
| Golfers and increase the personal resource, but
if his heart be pililcss, devoid of generous
sympathies and human desires if riches are
with him the end of existence if he ran find
no other use for his money than to employ it
in purchasing base indulgence, or laying it by
for uncertain or profigate heirs; if he finds
not pleasure in the charities of life, or nstitu-
tious devoted TO human veal if he is always
greedy receiver. and never . liberal dlSpen-
ser alas then, for the 50 called rich hut
| actually poor John Doc. His penury Is worse
than that of q Lazarus. He is more worth
less than the bcggar child, who shares her
crust with others, remembering and feeling
that lit is more blessed to give than to re-
ctive"
What is he wortl?' He is worth pre-
cisely Just as much as he has capacity and in
! clnation to be useful. He is to be estimated
! by the good he attempts or accomplishPs.-
| Not the tax gatherer, but the Word Of God
can decide his true value. Neither polished
marble nor lying epitaph can ever preserve the
memory or ennoble the life of Lin who, dying,
leaves behind no monument Of mercy, aud be-

following is al extract:
