A London Pauer.

We have before US the London Inder, Of JanuAry
LIST, 1858, which of course "run the blockade" 1t
is a: large double sheet, very handsomely printed
The Inder is the Southern paper in London. The
number before US contains ia full the message of
Gov Vance to the Legislature of this State, in No
Vember last together with much other matter rela-
ting to our State and the Southern people generally
The linden, in its notice Of Gov. Vance's message
says: .~

This is high praise from journal which views
the message from position unaffected by prejudice

the document in the Inder, is in itself compliment
to the State and to our worthy Governor.
The late Treasurer, Mr.. Courts, by not selling
State bonds at premium, as he could have DONE
lost hundreds of thousands of dollars to the State
Treasury, which the people will have to make good
by additional taxation. This is all right in the
Judgment of the Destructives They rally about
him, defend him, and declare that he was the best
Treasurer the State ever had. On the other hand,
the present Treasurer, Mr.. Worth, makes all he
can for the State by selling her bonds at premium,
whereupon these same Destructives assail him Bit
terly, and charge him with having converted his
office into brokers' shop. Mr.. Worth, we are
sure is quite indifferent as to what these people
sayabout him; and so long as he eschews the ex-
ample of his predecessor, and makes money for the
State instead of losing it. the people will sustain
him.
By the way, we observe that the Winston Senti-
mel copies article from depraved paper in this
City, in which Mr.. Worth is charged with having
deprecated Confederate currency. "Those who
live in glass houses should not throw stones" Did
not the Editor of the Sentinel himself endearor to
get rid of contract by refusing Confederate notes

The Exemntion Bill.

On motion Of Mr. Dortch, Justices of the Peace

The twenty negro exemption law, modified,

This clause purports to be for the police of slaves"
and is therefore, clearly unconstitutional. Con-

The police of slaves" belongs exclusively to the

There is provision in the bill that one white
