For THE HERALD.

MEssRs.. EDTToRs-In the present condition Of
our State, believe it the duty of every citizen
not only to think but to express his thoughts,
that by considering the various plans suggested,
we may be able to hit upon some method to give
vitality to our struggling, gasping country. Let
Legislature. if competent to do so, vacate every
Office in the State If not let convention be
ordered ON the question of the Indebtedness Of
the people of the State. Let said convention be
inst ucted to Vacate all Offices and reduce the
salaries of all officers to one-third of the present
amount Then to carry out the plan let working
men be elected to fill the various offices, and let
the aristocracy who have for 80 long time mis-
governed the State be turned adrift to find their
5roper level without eXtraneous aid. AS the last
convention emancipated the negroes, let the pro-
posed convention compensate the owners at the
market price, say $500 each, which was about
the market price at the time of the surrender.
70 effect this let the State charter bank for q
Years, aud suffer no other bank or bank agency
in the State during that period Let TINS Dank
issue legal tender notes sutaclenC to'pay 1or the
negroes. and buv the present crop OF cotton,
wSIch can be sold for specie to be placed in the
vaults of the bank. If the State IS aDle, leC ner
borrow one-third the amount necessary, II not
deposit bonds to that amount with the DanA lor
security Let the people be taxed 1or tne sup
port of the government, and to pay tne lhCerest
Of the loan or bonds sold or deposited, whlcn
cannot be maid from the profits of the bank.
This plan will I think free the people from DEBT,
enhance the price Of land at least SEQ per cent.
above present prices and render the State lnde-
pendent in five years. This too Will give US JUS
tice AS the State freed the negroes she shouId
pay for them. But if the State refuse compensa-
flon, sweep away all evidences Of debt prior to
the surrender. If the convention had rlgnt TO
take one species of property she mas an equai
right over every other.

The Greenville Enterprise, in reference to

running through, important changes by its
energetic President Hammett, will be soon
made, in the reduction Of freight rates, and
a change made in the running schedule, by
which much time will be saved by the pas

the long inconvenience, high rates Of freight.
and high prices of goods and provisions, all
those interested in. this road will hail a

SUBSTITUTE FOR BUTTER.-A lady who
is famous housekeeper, says the Eufaula
News, recommends an economical plan for
making cake without butter, which may be
useful to our lady readers. Take a piece of
fat salt pork, melt it down, and strain it
through piece Of coarse thin muslin. Set
it aside until cold. 1t is then white and firm,
and may be used like butter in any kind of
cake. In pound cake, she assures us, it is
delicious. She says after one trial she never
used butter.
