PETERSRURG LETTER.
Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch
Annual Meeting of the Stockholders Of the
Soshhside acknowledgements Of
Relief Association.

PETERSBURG, December S, 1868.
The annual meeting Of the stockholders
of the Southside railroad takes place to-
morrow ut y o'clock, and will be held in
the Council Chamber in this city. The
meeting will doubtless be largely attended,
as more than usual interest is manifested
by our citizens in this improvement. The
report of President Malone has not yet
been made public, but there is every rea-
son to believe that the road is in more
prosperous condition than ever. We know
that large amount of freight has been
brought to this city which would never
have come while the roads between here
and Tennessee were under separate manage
ments. And the same may be said in re-
gard TO Richmond. The merchants Of the
sister cities should make every exertion to
secure the whole trade of the fertile region
penetrated by the roads with which they
have any connection.
A call will be made in the morning pa
pers for public meeting of the citizens
tomorrow night at the courthouse for the
purpose of re0rganizing the Relief Associa-
ton. This matter has already been de-
layed too long; and now that winter is &C
tually at our doors, il is earnestly hoped
that efficient measures will be taken to pro-
vide for the destitute and suffering. At
such time as this they are numerous
enough for the exercise Of the largest
charity s..

S,anaer's Financial Measure :. Manhood
Suffrage not likely TO be Universally Sap
ported 6v the Radicals.
WAsH1NaTON. Decemher Z. 1868.

WASHINGTON, DecemDer q, 1900.
It was plainly shown to-day that by fol
the greater portion of the winters work IL
to be devoted to the national fnances-tne
resumption Of specie payments and iegar,
cation of gold contracts being prominent
among the measures to receive earnest at
tention. About a half dozen different oils
touchinc the finances were introduced TO-
day Sumner was ready with his bill to
nrovide for the resumption Of specie pay
ments on the 4th of July next. 1t declares
that the faith of the Government is solemn
~ nledged to the payment In coin, or It's
equivalent, Of all the national obligations
now outstanding, except where the law au'
thorizing any such obligation has expressly
provided that it may be paid in what is
called lawful money. Similar measures
from other congressional hnanciers VIII
take the foreground.
Universal " manhood suffrage" IS an
other rallying cry OF the Republican forces
this winter. The opinion of large num-
Der of members of that party is that it
cannot be adopted either as congressional
enactment or a constitutional amendment,
on the ground that in several of the states
the popular decision has been forcioly
against it, and the Legislatures Of those
States have no right TO override the ex-
pressed will of the people of the States.
The question is coming home to some OF
them, and bringing them to conscientious
view of it. The Pacific delegations vii!
oppose it on the ground that 1t Will open
the door to Chinese suffrage, to which the
people of the Pacific coast are In no partlcu-

Secretary McCulloch is indignant at the
publication of bis report. How 1t was OBJ

every body else. Never was document so

gram to him from New York this morning
announcing a complete synopsis OF 1t In one
of the papers Of that city was anything but
pleasant. Efforts are being made to find
out the leak. The copies for the Press were
sent from the Department.
The resolution introduced IN the house
to. day by Mr.. Morrill,, of Maine, censurIng
Hon. Reverdy johnson, caused a stir. The
effort to come to vote was futile, members
not being bold enough to act without some
word from the Committee on Foreign hela-
tons. Consequently it was accordingly re-
ferred.
Menard, the colored claimant for the seat
made vacant by the death of Colonel Mann,
of Louisiana, was on the floor to-day, look
ing as forlorn and hopeless as black man
would under such circumstances. he re-
ceived very few attentions from the white
representatives, and has been advised to 60
hence, as q white Radical is likewise here
after the same seat. AS he is said not to
be armed with the proper legal certificate,
he will probably 60. q, TlMoN.

neral ssoneman's pen for oance1ling all old

debts. - ~,
The stay law. like ell earthly things, is
fast approaching its end. The oankrup.
act was designed to settle mp the affairs or
sill who refused to pay their just debts, out
the stav Iausof some Of the States were not
nronerjv considered at the time, and they
bovn ;mneded its operation but the writer
Of this Communication regards himself as
warranted in saying that if these stay laws
should longer exist the bankrupt act will,
a. the next session Of Congress, be so
amended as to wipe them out entirely, and
In ninety days from this date no vestige of
them will remain.
NV transactions in money matters have
not been at ell limited. / owe some money

which they are justly entitled. have lost
more slaves than all of my debtors and
creditors together. I have never collected
debt by law, nor has any mans property
ever been sold to pay me dollar, though
when very young man | held hundred
thousand dollars of private bonds in the
great money pressure from 1910 to 1914.
Few men comparatively have lost more by
the war; but having sold @ large portion of
nv real estate before the war for mode
rate price, consequently belong to that
much-abused and unfortunate class called
Shylocks, because we do not stand quietly
in the cold ,oithout shtvering while others
luxuriate at my expense.
SO far as the stay law is now concerned,
IL is not worth an argument. To use
common but vulgar expression, in ninety
days or sooner it must ego up" 1t has
done its work of desolation. | protested
against such blind legislation and, in con-
clusion, would say to creditors, the dreary
time that has overshadowed your worldly
prospects is passing away; this dark night
that has clogged your business affairs Is
drawing to close and allow me to be-
seech you to use all moderation, and show
those who so abused you that because you
want seat by the fire and few new clothes
Won do not intend to turn others out forth
with into the cold because they have kept
you shivering so long; that you will not fly
away with the houses and lands, but that
they will still remain for the common use
of all on q little more equitable terms, and
that it is humbuggery to say the country
will be ruined because property may change
owners.
So far as the sacrifice of property is con-
cerned, against which SO much clamor Is
raised, the debtor more frequently desires
it than the creditor, who is most generally
the injured party; aad there is but little
danger of those being sold out who have the
disposition and possess the means of pay

The Stay Law.
Editors Of the Dispatch:

Editors OF the Dispatch:
There has been some sense and q great
deal of nonsense published on the subject
of the stay law. A great many people are
anxious on this subject. Those who have
been kept from their own fresides for a
long time are refreshed with the hope that
the time is at hand when they may get a
good warming, and the interlopers are
dreadfully alarmed at the idea that they
are about to occupy the places of those
whom they have 30 long kept out OF their
just rights. ...ga
Some think their neighbors ought to pay
for their negroes they lost as result OF
the war, but those neighbors who lost more
darkies than they did do not accept this
idea, nor can they agree to so one sided an
argument, as they cannot see who Is to pay
them for their lost Sambos. ...t
The stay law has well nigh run it's course.
1t must go down, or the credit of the State
as we'll as individuals, which has already
sustained such immense damage, will be
entirely bankrupt. This law cannot now
be extended without including the millions
of new debts the hope Of paying which is
based on promises to pay old ones, and
which the law itself authorized creditors to
contract, with the assurance that new debts
might be safely contracted, to be met with
money due on old ones. Now, after this
assurance from its friends and the face of
the law itself, how can any man or set Of
men say that A shall pay new debt when
3, who owes him twice as much, shall be
J allowed an indefinite time to pay him his
because it is Of an older date Some-very
respectable people assert that General
Stoneman can by a stroke of his pen wipe
out all debts, both private and public, of
Virginia. We do not think General Stone
man can have much respect for the opinions
Of these good people, for he says it is his
duty to protect persons and property, and
the laws Of Congress require him to do 30.
Now, we do not think it would be protect
ing persons and property to take one mans
property and give it to another, which some
of the recipients would think marvellously
just. Congress itself cannot cancel debts
or annul contracts already in existence, and
we have always regarded the creature as
subordinate to the creator.
The attempt to alarm suffering women
and children Into ruinous compromises with
nuucias.es whom the bankrupt act does not
= feiieVe from their obligations TO those help
tess people | hope will prove abortive.
congress has provided for the relief Of
Faeotors by an act Of bankruptcy, which in
most cases has enabled the bankrupt to
buy his property for nothing without The
least complaint Of a sacrifice, ge, rid Of his
debts, and makes him far better off than
his creditors; but because this &c. does no,
