The weekly bank statement sustains our report Of
the local money market from day to day, and eX-
hbts serious reduction in all the leading items of

There is a heavy falling OFF in the deposits of
$685. 26S and in lega-enders OF S4S2 426, whilst the
decrease in loans has been only $50, $780, indicating
disposition on the part OF bank management to eX-
pand loans to the utmost. This is a decided weak
statement at time when extensive preparations are
being made Tor the fall trade, and there is a yery
reasonable fear lest business enterprise should re-
Celye severe check as the season progresses.
The rates to-day correspond with the condition OF
the market, and borrowers find il difficult to negO-
tiate loans on call at less than per cent Time
loans at the banks are invariably limited to short
dates. Discounts range between Solo per cent. for

That King Arthur was a Northern man Is
maintained in an able article of the current
number of the Westminster Re0ielo, "On the
Four Ancient Books of Wales" =" which effectually
disposes of Mr.. Skenes claim to put three OF
these books in the sixth century, and shows that
they belong to the twelfth, The Gododin the
writer wisely confesses himself unable to eX-
plain or to assign to any certain age.
q 1t is announced i'm the Jel1isb Record that
the Synod of Rabbis lately held in Germany re-
cognized the principle of individual authority
in matters of religious belief, and the importance
OF uniettered scientific investigation. They re-

Israel. They also recommended choral services,
the use OF the organ in synagogues, and musical
performances on Sabbaths and festivals. AS an
indication OF modern tendencies this announce
ment is not without significance.

TFRoM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT
MARION, December 1s
During the past month, many things have
occurred calculated to produce the impression
that despite past and present misrulc, our county
is recuperating more rapidly from the prostra-
ton OF the late war, and the disorganization OF
our social and laborlng status, than the most san
gulne expected. Matters generally wear bright
er aspect and only dull, gloomy loreboding OF
some more destructive blow to the liberty and
consequently the property OF our people than
has yet been dealt restrans MS from feeling that
our country must soon vie with the wealthiest In
the Union. The aim OF every one is to plant
again the vine and lg tree where once they -four
tshed and to ask from those who now officer the
ship OF State protection and justice to all. Give
us these, and the res is our work.
The first cheering sign is that litigation IS much
Observation-Disclosures becau.e we are transacting
most OF our business on the cash system, or that
debtors are making better crops and can meet
their obligations, cannot be known, but, In either
view, 1t is matter for congratulaton. Our court
dockets have been largely reduced by the extra
term held by Judge Green, for two weeSs preced-
Ing November 25 and If the Pcnitentiary would
retain some OF the gentry we send there, our
criminal docket would be so lessened as to open
to li;igants the courts without requiring extra
sessions.
Again, oil salcsday OF this month"; lands brou ght
prices which had not been realized since our ante
oellu,n sales. The landed property Of the estate
OF the late Major S +. Gibson brought the gross
sum OF S29, ISL, portion OF one plantation bring
ing as much as SO per acre. On Tuesday follow
ing, the estates OF General ELY Godbold and Mr..
T. W. Godbold were sold by their assignee. anu,
to some extent, commanded rs good prices rs
the Gibson estates on Monday.
These evidences OF improvement, connected
with the improved tone and energetic action of
our people, at least affords ground for hoping
"there's better time coming Cotton Is still
held for proper advance OF price, and most
planters, though exercising the grumbing priyl-
lcges accorded then, have done very well. One
who planted 70. one hundred bales, has ginncd
and packed out q crop amounting to one hundred
and eight Corn crops are undoubtedly short,
but much OF the complaint in relation TO 1t results
from desire to make more than Is necessary,
and also from devotlng undue preponderance OF
attention to the cotton crop. The seasons have
not been proptious, but so Gar as can be ascer-
tained the yield is greater than was expected
some two mouths ago. The cotton crop Is much
shortened BY the cold weather. OF the last OF Sep
tembcr and the first Of Ostober, AMI many bOls
which were expected to open seemed TO have
been ruined by TINT weather. Had the autumn

THE EXPRESS RoBBERY.-The Kingstrce
Star gives these further particulars OF the rob-
berry reported in yesterdays NEWS:
There was an express robbery committed at
Salter's Depot, Northeastern Railroad on the
night OF the 18Th instant. Two packages OF mon
ey one said to contain $500, ana addressed 10
Daniel McNatt; the other, said to contain $50 ~,
and addressed to w. j. Perrell. These packages
were delivered to Mr.. Roberts, the express agent
at that place, and deposited by him In the money
drawer in his store. At night when he went 10
leave his store, and on taking his money out OF
the drawer he discovered that the packages were
missing. He Immediately instituted search, out
without success. Detective D. K. Levy. OF
Charleston, has been engaged for several days
past in trying to detect the thief, anu mas arrest
ed Samuel Brown Robert Brown, Rebecca Brown
and Eliza Brown, against whom there appears
evidence OF guilt. These parties are father. wife
and children. Robert, Il penitentiary birdJ seems
TO be the chief actor in the theft and the others
accessories. Mr.. Levy recovered through the In.
formation of his sister (who says Robert admitted
TO her that he took the money, and that shc saw
the Express enveopes Sl03, which was in the
possesSion OF Roberts mother. He also found III
the house OF the parents a new trunk, which was

TO about sixty dollars worth, which the girl says

One fact regret to record is that the bulk OF

Is 1t not the duty of Charleston factors to endea-
vor to control the railroad tariff as to direct the
cotton from the eastern section OF our State from
points north to the "City by the Sea-" We have
direct trade to foreign ports, and 1t Is but COM
mon prudence in US TO endeayor to build up our
own trade in our own country. Planters must
have advancements, and, could our Charleston
firms establish local agents here who would know
the proper persons here to whom aid could safely
be given, is would to great extent, increase the
shipments in that direction. Many substantial
men and planters whose obligations could be
reckoned on are too little known in the city to OBJ
tain the necessary aid, while, it appears, others
not nearly 80 able to meet their dues by some
means obtain credit. To remedy this, q local
agency would probably be found most efficient,
and surely it is worth the serious attention Of
Charleston merchants. A new year is upon US,
and this is the time to act.
Our village is to have, in few weeks, hotel.
The old Brown Hotel, purchased in November by
Mr.. T. B. Brady, has by him been sold to Mr..
J. F. Finger, OF Wilmington, who is now refittng
and furnishing it for his lessee Mr.. S. D. Colcutt
of Georgetown. Thus one great want Is to be
supplied and transient visitors will not be hence

BY the way, the nourishing school OF Messrs.
Mitchell and Witherow has closed its second
session for this year. The examination, which
was held on the 18th end 10th instant was highly
satisfactory to the parents OF the young IDEAS,
and very creditable to the teachers. On Thurs
day night the youthful Ciceros entertained a
audience for some two hours or more, forcibly
evidencing their good training fol-. contact with
the coming world, in which they are to bear
their parts This school is a local academic insti-
tuition Of many years. standing, and to it many
who among us now front the evil day owe their
first lessons In that knowledge which now renders
them able to show themselves men.
