Important Decision By the Supreme
- g.. Court.

- The "Phosnix" of the 25th ult., p ub.
fishes in full the opinion of the supreme
court by Chief Justice Moses, in the
case of James q. Adams against John
Kleckly. The question made in the
case was whether the Clerk or the She
riff is the proper officer to make sales
directed by the Circuit Court. The fol
lowing points were decided:
1st. That when the Court intends the
sale to be made by the proper officer,
the Sheriff and not the clerk, is such Of
fcer.
= Cd. That it is in the discretion of the
Circuit Judge, for reasons satisfactory
70 him, to nominate any fit and proper
:. person as the agent of the court, to make
sale ordered by it. This decision ex.
plodes the common opinion. that all the
duties of the commissioner of the courts
heretofore established for the admins.
.tration of Equity are to be performed by
& the Clerk Of the Court of Common
Pleas. These courts, says the Chief
Justice, no longer exist their jurisdic.
ton has been transferred to the courts
of Common Pleas and upon this trans
fer all the officers and machinery Incl
dent to them were abolished, except so
!. far as retained by the existing law
When circuit Judge in . matter OF
) Equity jurisdiction orders sale it is by
the direction Of Court of Common
Pleas, of which Court the Sheriff has
been the executive officer, and has made
all sales from the earliest legislation
The decision is in conformity with the
8 practice in the United States Court,
where both law and Equity are admin
istered by the same Judge. As the
opinion is not confined to sale in the
particular case under consideration, nor
TO sale, under any particular order or
decree, bat is wide and extensive as the
jurisdiction of the Court, it becomes a
general rule for future guidance.

UNITED STATES DEBT HELD IN EUROPE

UNITED STATES DEBT HELD IN EUROPE
--WuAT THE PEOPLE PAY on IT YEAR
LY.-The London Pail Mall Gazette esti-
mates the amount Of United States Bonds
held abroad, to be about twelve hundred
millions of dollars; so the people are
drained of about seventy millions Of
gold or one hundred millions dollars in
currency every year to pay the interest
due foreign bondholders. The interest
is paid in gold, whereas, the money
loaned the Government was paper, not
worth more than forty or fifty cents in
the dollar. The amount paid to foreign
ers alone, in the shape Of interest on the
public debt, is four or five times as great
as the whole revenue and expenses of
the United States Government when
Gen. jackson was elected President:
yet, the people under the sway of party
politicians, and press under the inhu-
ence of false ideas, or the corruption of
capitalists, stand all this and six times
as much. Again we say let the people
do justice to themselves, and no more
than justice to Bondholders-pay in
paper what was borrowed in paper.

SCALING OLD DBBTs.-At the present
term of the Court, the matter of scaling
debts contracted prior to 1861, which
has excited so much interest among our
people, was submitted to a jury, and
finally disposed of: The scale adopted
by the jury, gives to the creditor one
half of principal, and one-half interest
up to the 1st of January, 1861, allowing
no interest for any subsequent time
This decision Of the jury seems to come
with bad grace upon that class of credi.

debts. Perchance the jury was too lib
eral to the debtor, but We have no doubt
it is best for all classes of our people, as
it will relieve the unfortunate debtor,
and at the same time afford tangible
basis for the settlement of all debts con-
tracted before the war.-Abbeville Ban

@A WONDERFUL DISCOV-

ERI.-In the South where Liver Complaint and
bilious diseases prevail to so great an extent,
there has long been felt need Of medicine
that would act specifically and promptly OF tho
Liver, restoring it to its. normal functions, and
at the same time be safe from after effects, and
yet so simple that it might be used by any one.
1t is claimed that DIR. TUFTS VEGETABLE
LIVER PILLS supplies this want They act
directly on the Liver their constant use Will
not ipjuye in the slightest degrees the most deli>
cate constitution. Females at any period may
use them with great benefit, and rsalizo great
relief from the distressing nausea which they e1-
perience at certain times. These pills are not
recommended as universal cure>all, but simply
for diseased Liver, and those maladies which
follow arrangement Of that important organ,
such as Dyspepsia, Sick Headache, Indigestion,
Loss Of Appetite, Costiveness, Piles, Jaundices
Sour Stomach, Ladies Heartburn, Chil.s and

Gcurt at Abbeville, Judge Orr Clears the
Docket Of 500 OF 600 Cases.

We learn from the Abbeville Press
that Judge Orr, with his usual ability
and skill, disposed of 500 or 600 cases
on the docket; on Tuesday of last week
three hundred unlitigated cases were dis
patched in one day alone, leaving some
fifty cases, which We have no doubt were
discharged. Judge Orr deserves the
2 gratitude of the people of Abbeville as
we'll as of Greenvills for the manner in
which he labors to strengthen the affairs
Of our country. We can, without any
hesitancy, say that he is net only the
most learned and able Of our judiciary,
but also the most Jealous and earnest
champion for the prosperity of the State.
1t will be seen from the annexed ex-
tract from the Press, that the Abbeville
iuries vent farther than any heretofore
in bringing old debts down to something
like what they ought to be: "In all cases
which have been brought upon ante
wars debts, the juries have fixed the
measure of their verdicts at one-half of
The principal, and interest to the 1st
January, 1861. And the majority Of
these cases. by agreement Of counsel,
have been referred to the Clerk, to as.
sess the amount Of principal and interest
in conformity with this standard.
"In cases Of Confederate debts, the rule
for scaling debts, which is furnished by
Act 1859 has been applied, except in
cases of peculiar hardship, where evi-
dence has been gone into as t. the true
value of the property ?"

THOMAS CARLYLE SwEARs THAT WE ARE
GOING TO HELL.-The condition of Amer.
ica was descanted on by Mr.. Carlyle in
terms less remarkable for fattery than
force. Gas sure as the Lord reigns,
said be, "you are rushing down to hell
with desperate velocity. The scum OF
the world has got possession of your
country, and nothing can save you from
the devils clutches. Not perhaps,
cried he, raising his voice to it's shrillest
notes, "a hell burning with material fire
and birthstone, but the wide weltering
fiery chaos Of corruption in high places,
and the misrule of the people. A fine
Republic that! England follows in the
train, and is even now on the brink of
the Internal precipice-and hell below" "
OF course l could make no reply to these
"prophetic sounds so full of woe" but
waited in serene silence for the tempest
to pass over.-Ripley's Letter in the
Tribune.

Nr. Bonner Would Not Publish Mrs.
..- Stoves Byron Article.
New YORK, August 80, 1869.

New YORK, August 80, 1869.
TO the Editor of the Herald:
In your paper of this morning, | find
the following statement, copied from the
Louisville Courier-Journal, in regard to
Mrs. Stoves recent article on Lord
Byron:
"Dsna and Bonner fairly burst with
spleen-Dana because he didn't invent
the Byron scandal, and Bonner because
he didn't get it for the Ledger. Dam
nationl' cried Bonner, when he first
got an inkling Of it; why didn't she
fetch it to mes Why, I'd have paid
her ceol $4,000 for it,"
This Is not only a falsehood but a
talsehood which no one at all acquainted
with me could ever have invented.
Whatever I nigh: have thought about
Mrs. Stoves article, it would have been
quite contrary to my habit of speech to
characterize it by the word "damnation;"
but this must say, that million of
dollars could not have induced me to
print that gross and indecent article in
the Ledger, no matter what the pub
fishers of the Atlantic, Monthly were
willing to do. Few women have evinced
50 much talent as Mrs. Stowe. have
? myself purchased articles from her for
which l cheerfnlly paid her high price;
e. but they we're very different articles
from the one under consideration. And
I do not believe any true friend who
was himself in his right mind could have
: ADVISED her to sell for any sum that
morbid, terrible, and unnatural hallucin-
alton about Lord Byron. For her sake,
I sincerely and deeply regret that she has
done it. I know Of no article published
In my lifetime calculated to exert more
= injurious and denloralizing influence on
therising generation !; and for this reason
j wish everybody to know that nothing
q, would have tempted me to publish it.
