PecuniarY Distress.

We publish in another column to- day, GER
tain resolutions adopted by citizens of Green
vile District, at public meeting on the 18th
inst calling for State Convention to provide
relief for the pecuniary distress of our people,
and asking the citizens of other Districts to
hold similar meetings for the same purpose
This is grave and serious subject, and one
that must press heavily upon the mind of cv-
cry thoughtful citizen of our State. As to
the question whether relief should or should
not be afforded to the unfortunate debtors,
there ore many good arguments pro and con-
On ono side it is urged that if reasonable
time is allowed to debtors, they will be able,
by industry and energy, to retain at least
portion of their property, and also satisfy the
demands of their creditors; whereas, if pressed
now, they will not only be compelled to sacri.
flee all they have, but will still remain involved
to great extent. Asa precedent of the sue
cessful adoption of such course, they refer
to the instalment laws of this State, which
were enacted at the close of the first Revolu-
ton, and which remained in force for several
years. until tho relief which was their object
was in great measure obtained. On the
other side, it is claimed that all relief to the
debtor is only transfer Of the calamitous re-
suit Of war from those upon whom it fell to
the backs Of others; that such relief is con-
trary to the Constitution of tho United States,
and that at most it could only be enforced in
tho State Courts
There is one thing, however, upon which
all will agree, and that is, that this question
should be settled finally, one way or the other,
and that the sooner it is settled the better for
the State. If people are to be made bank.
rupt, they should know it at once, so that

they may prepare to face the music, and enter
immediately upon a manly struggle with ad-
verso fortune, and not be tempted to waste
their time in anticipation Of relief which
may never come; and on the other hand, if
execution is to be stayed for a certain length
OF time, the duration of the exemption should
DC known, to prevent that uncertainty and
anxiety which Mt present affects, to greater
or less degree, the whole community

PoETRY.
Thou Art God Alone.

While standing on the oceans shore,
And gazing DER the deep,
Watching the pillows seething foam,
While storms their rcvcls keep;
My soul is filled with solemn awe,
While listening to their tone.
And David's words came DER my mind,
Lord, Thou art God alone"
In all Of natures mighty works,
The forests gloomy shade,
The giant mountnin's granite sides,
All natures vast nrcadcs-
Thy praise. in many n varied way,
To spenk, are ever prone,
We. listening, hear it all around,
Yes, Thou art God alone"
Thou 'gravcst il in living words
Upon our inmost soul,
When dire misfortunc's blast is heard
Aud clouds Of anguish roll
From out the thick and nurky clouds,
We hear Thy gentle tome
"Ferr not, I'm Will, thee 10 tho end,
For l am God alone"
Take courage. trembling. fearful saint,
Though hosts of hell combine,
The Lord OF Heaven is God alone,
That God is ever thine;
He'll shield and guide thee: by and by,
Will claim thee ms his own;
When nature sinks. He'll raise thee up,
For he is God alone.

the entire war, and since peace, has required
a weekly outlay, much larger than most peo,
pie suppose, and which has strained our ex
ertions to meet. Before the war, this paper,
had, in all probability, the largest circulation
Of any journalin the State out Of Richmond
and this amount ofincome was always more than
met by US in the sums expended in obtaining
the earliest news. We had nightly express
from "ashington-full telegraphic reports
from all portions OF the country-correspon-
dents IN different quarters literally paid for
furnishing us with news, &c, &c. All this
we desire, in time, to restore For the pre-.
sent we must be content, with less expanded
views. But we invite our former subscribers
in the Country, and all our citizens in town,
to lend us q helping hand. We would be
pleased to see our mail books filled with the
names of all our old friends, and many new
ones. Our town list is already larger than
ever before, but there is room for all.
We shall show our gratitude by additional
efforts to make the Gazette worthy Of their
countenance and favor.
WeWish it, moreover, distinctly understood,
that i'll the prosecution Of our publication,
hereafter, we must do a strictly cash business
Experience has, here, taught us another les
son. We have due lis, thousands Of dollars
earned by unrenlitting toll, and for work
which was paid for by us to others. How
much Of this will be totally lost, we cannot
say; we would gladly compound for ha!f-
But now the necessity upon lis is too ur-
gent to admit Of a longer continuance Of the
credit system We have topay, in cash, for
everything connected with the publication Of
this paper, eccry 10ecl:. Our subscriptions,
advertising, &C., must, therefore, be in cash,
too. al reasonable men will see the justice
of this; andapprovc Of our determination.
With these few Introductory remarks, We
hand our subscribers the old GAZETTE, in its
old form, wishing them health and happiness,
and asking for their renewed support
