The PALMETTO PIONEER COOPERATIVE Asso-
o1Ar1oN.-A large and interesting meeting of
the Palmetto Pioneer Cooperative Association
was held on Saturday evening at the Palmetto
Engine House. There was full attendance OF
the members, and several additional names
were. enrolled. After transacting the usual
business, the ASSOCIATION proceeded to the cleo
ton of storekeepor, which resulted in the
choice of Mr.. W. d. Welch. This gentleman
has the advantage of thorough business edu-
cation, and possesses a high character for in
teerity and commercial capacity, He has for
some time been keeping grocery store at the
corner of Society aud Anson streets, which he
will close when assuming his new duties. The
association have rented from MIR. B. Foley, q
store on the south side of Market-street, between
King and Meeting. 1t was formerly occupied
by MIR. Mertens as shoe store. Several al
terations and repairs are necessary, which will
prevent the association from commencing op-
erations before the 18th Instant. The esSab-
lishrnent will be opened first as grocery and
provision store; but, as the finances OF the as
socistion improve, they will combine other
branches OF business so as to make it q gene
raj furnishing establishment. The location
chosen is admirable, and the storekeeper well
suited for the position. The association haze
adopted Excelsior" as their motto, and,
though their path may berugged, and their ex-
pertinent struggle, they are determined to
achieve success. They rely upon generous
public, who appreciate the spirit that gave
birth 10 the enterprise, to be their constant
patrons, ard no stone will be left unturned to
make the cooperative store one Of the ''insti,
tutions" of Charleston.

The New Work Sun o. Saturday says -
"The dizziness that has prevailed in CONNER
cial affairs for a year past is making itself
seriously felt in nearly all the manufacturing
districts. From various quarters we hear Of
trouble, present and prospective among the
operators in mills and factories The cotton
factories in Baskerville, New Hampshire, are
said to have reduced the wages of their en-
ployees twelve-and-a- half per cent the hours
of labor remaining unchanged. Other fac
tories have made similar reductions;- while
in some cases both the hours OF labor and
the wages have been cut down. The present
season is generally the dullest of the year for
manufacturers, and stoppage ola iew.weeks
Tor repairs has in some cases been customary;
but in several instances we now hear of es-
Establishments having closed for the winter
The Rensselaer, Iron Works, of Albany have
! topped work altogether, without probable
! ty OF resuining before spring The Washi-
, lee Wooden Works, of Salisbury, .Connecti-
Z cut, have also come to a stand still. The
dizziness is not confined to the Eastern States.
but has extended to the West and even to the
farmers of that region Business agents who
have been waiting in the West for revival
of business send gloomy accounts of the stag
nation that prevails. The whole complicated
business of production, trade and manufac-
ture from one end of the country to the 9TH
er, is unquestionably depressed. Under the
circumstances, we may congratulate our
selves that the distress in this city is less than
that we hear of in many other regions
There is much to be endured here, but at the
same time there is little encouragement to go
elsewhere with view of doing better"

The new amendment to the Reconstruction
acts, which have been SO often amended be-
fore, proposes to put aside the Supreme
Court as an interpreter of the laws, and the
President as the Executor OF them, in order
that Congress may absorb into itself all the
functions of Government 1t has heretofore
evinced such superior wisdom, in the restor-
alton of the late insurgent States, and in the
management # finance and taxation, that it
thinks nothing less than universal power its
due
While it proposes to forbid the Judiciary
to pronounce an opinion on certain subjects,
it also declares the number of votes in bench
by which any opinion is to be held as valid.
Two-thirds of the judges-not majority of
them-must concur in pronouncing upon the
constitutional merits of any law; that is
two-thirds this month, but as Congress reg
ulates the matter, it may be three-fourths
next month, and the month after unanimity.
In other words the decisions of the highest
judicial tribunal will be made to take their
complexion from the politics of the legisla-
tive department. n
BY the organic law, the President of the
United States is made the Commander In
| Chief of the Army and Navy of the United
| States; but that is an antiquated law, and
Congress proposes to set it aside by enacting
law of its own sovereign will AS the i'm,
peachment report would say--conferring the
power upon our principal general As a sol
dier of great distinction and merit, he is or
dered to begin with an act of INSTRUMENTATION
towards his chief whose authority he is to
disregard, and assume the character of mill
| tary dictator in ten at least of the States OF
the Union.-N y. Post (Repubtscda)

Is ALEXANDER Fl. STEPHENS VIEW OF Az
FAIRS IN THE SoUTH.-Alexande H. Ste
phens. in conversation with friend who saw
him recently in Philadelphia took very de-
spondent view OF anairs in the 1SouUIT de
the country fraught with gloom and disaster,
and can see nothing in the policy of recon-
struction but the operation Of a fearful
scheme, whose ultimate result will be the de-
struction of either the black or the white
race. Every day, he says, it becomes more
painfully evident that the arrangement be-
tween the races is widening-on the part of
the negroes from the effects of such instruc-
ton as teaches them to distrust and oppose
the whites, and on the part of the latter from
an adherence of the negro leaders and an in
stinctive aversion to be ruled and legislated
for by ignorance and senli-barbarism. From
what fell under his own observation in
Georgia he was unable to detect ANYTHING
like spirit on either side tending to mutual
sympathy of sentiment and interest Radical
emissaries from the North have sown the
seeds of evil dissension with a terrible ear
nestness, and the diametric opposition of the
races now visible all over the South must, in
the very nature of things lead at. some time
or other, to fearful collisions. This inevi-
table result Mr.. Stephens declares, as a dis
passionate war of races, desired by some
and indfferently needed by others, is, to his
mind, n consequence as sure to happen, under
the radical method of reconstruction, as it is
impossible to avoid, if the precedents of his
tory or the impulses that control human ma
ture be taken into account. q

.Anthorlts,

After the Augustan Era the product of the
European mines failed, and the stock of coin
gradually fell until the ninth century, each
step OF its fall being marked by the great pov-
erty and soc al degradation OF the people, I'M
Ill at last, such was the scarcity OF coin, hui
man beings in Britain were made legal ten
dera at specified rates.
This deartlf of the precious metals contribu-
ted largely towards establishing the Dark
Ages. Out OF these depths arose two great
modern institutions, the Mercantile theory
and Credit, the one palliative, the other
cure s-.... -er ~
No increase to the stock of coin occurred
Until after the discovery of America, but the
invention ofpaper credit largely aleviated the
prevailing misery. ~ p
This invention is due to the Jews who in
l16O introduced bills of exchange, and who
were the only persons, from the institution of
tlle canon law against the taking of interest
for loans OF money to the sixteenth century.

The taking of interest was totally forbidden

The taking of interest was totally forbidden
in England until 1871, and the device of ex-
teI ading credit by means of endorsement was
noa practiced until century later, when it
W ms introduced from Holland.
The stock of coin steadily increased until
1897 when it reached the highest point, and
then declined until the opening of the Pacific
coast mines, in 1913, when it again increased,
assing in 1860 its greatest previous height,
mad attaining in 1867 the enormous sum OF
two thousand six hundred millions of dollars.

Col. pK.n,. n. .Maufsh,s.-

We extract the following article from the
Democratic AdyOcate, published at Westmin-
ster, and cordially indorse the eulogium it
pronounces upon our talented townsman,
Col Maulsby. In entering the lists against
Frank Thomas in The 4th Congressional Dis
trict in 1866, the Democratic Conservative
candidate well knew that with over 1000
voters DISTINGUISHED by the Radical registry
law, there was no chance of an election yet
Notwithstanding this hopeless aspect of affairs,
Col M. made a vigorous fight for supremacy,
and succeeded in reducing the war. horses
majority 1856 by several thousand In that
contest he labored with zeal and ability, and
spent his time and money freely for the sac
cess OF our noble, principles, He has strong
hold upon the patriotic masses, and should
he again be our standard bearer in 1861 we
think in a fair vote before the people he can
carry this district by $500 majority Y &a
"a writer in the Cumberland AHegaaian
thinks it time to look about for candidate to
represent this District in Congress, and sug-
gests that the seat which Frank Thomas now
disgraces should be given to General Thomas
j. McKnig orJ. ii. Gordon, Esq, both of Al
legany. We ,knowsthese gentlemen as being
of the true metal; as having been imprisoned
tor political opinions; MS being forced to fly
Tor their lives from brutal mobs, and as hay
ing passed through the fiery furnace of Radi-
, cal malice and fanaticism and emerged UNI
scathed All true Democrats know and re-
spect them for their answering devotion to
principle in the hour of oppression. But this
District owes debt to Col William p. Mauls-
by, our champion in the last Congressional
fight, which can only be paid when he oh.
tains the scat of which he was defiauded by
the Acknowledgement and intimidation of
thousands of legal voters by the radical party.
Colonel aulsby is gentleman whose noble
qualities endear him 10 our people, and we
can assure the voters of Allegany that Car
roll only longs to have him pitted against his
old enemy, and she will roll up for him ma
jority greater than was ever given for a can
didate since her Organization as county,
