A General Holiday.
CHARLESTON, April 21, 1869.
TO THE EDITOR OF TIE NEWS.

~ 1hE Of At4L -'S'S'
Genlemen-I noticed in your paper few
days since suggestion which think is vol
timed and hope will be carried out. 1 al
lude to a paragraph recommending the ap-
preaching anniversary of the Fire Department
to be observed as q general holiday. We have
now no general holiday. Before the war we
had the Fourth OF July, but We have no heart
for that now. Under Gods mysterious pro-
violence we are groaning under an almost in
tolerable inhiction Of unprincipled men, who
misgovern the State, and the recurrence OF the
Fourth can only recall to our minds the ante
6elun days when free people celebrated the
day, and I'll our hearts with bitterness. But I
have lost sight of what / intended to say. 1
propose making the anniversary OF the Fire
Department general holiday and gala day for
the citizens of Charleston, who, one and all,
take such just pride in that noble organiza.
Lion. Leaving their efficiency out of the ques-
tion, we admire the spirit of emulation without
jealousy that pervades their ranks, and the
esprit de corps that prompts our fremen, each
one, to feel himself interested for the well be-
ing and good name of the whole. On the ap-
preaching occasion, which will be specially in
teresting, would it not be appropriate that, by
o suspension of business for that day, our citi.
zens may turn out en- mas Sc to do fitting honor
to our gallant fremen and their guests?

THE CASE OF TIE BANK OF The STATE.-In
this case there are three classes of claimants
upon the fc,ds: 1st. The foreign holders of
the bonds, issued by the State and guaranteed
by the bank. I'd. The holders within the Uni
ted States of the bonds and stock. Sd. The
bilholders, who nave not funded their claims,
and accepted bonds Of the State in satisfaction
of their demands.
The questions relate to the priority of these
claims upon the assets, or whether they are to
be proportionaly paid.
By the order OF Chancellor Lesesne, the as.
sets OF the bank were placed in the hands OF
the President and Cashier of the bank, to hold
the same under the authority and as the custo-
dams of the court.
Yesterday, Mr.. Attorney General Chamber
lain, moved before Judye Carpenter for the
appointment OF receiver of all the assets and
other property Of the bank, and that the re-
ceiver so appointed do give bond with securi-
ties to be approved by the court, to receive.
hold and keep the real and personal estate,
chooses in action aud books Of account of the
bank, and account therefor under the orders
of the court.
After the argument of counsel, the court re-
serve it's decision.
