Old Debts.

Tho practice o7 -s~aslling old debts by the
: Juries Of the country, originated at Henderson
OH, under the auspices Of Gen. HIIagEison.
Ofcoursc there was a material Meditation in
that way on tho part of nearly every person,
for there is surely equity, if not law, in such
"a course. Tho rule of law once broken the
waters Aowedf RELY, and the example was,
followed by Oconee, Pickens and Greenviile
counties, the entire circuit of Judge Orr
"r Abbevillo exchanges inform us that the
sa..y course, in a greater degree is being
,adoptedin that county. The rule there is to
allow on oldydebts, one.half Of tho principal
and interestto the first day Of January, 1861,
being about 80 per cent. of the dcbt'a and in.
terest. Our j urics adopted and have followed
the rule of allowing one-half tho principal
anc interest to date Of verdict, The ball
gathers as itssgoes.

The opinion Of Judge ORR in the case Of

men and children eassmbled st the Nara
tional Cemetery at Mound City on Satur-
day last, to do honor TO the 5000 braves
who there sleep the last sleep. About IL
O'Clock the Hon. N. II. Casey announced
that the purpose In view was to decorate
the soldiers graves with flowers, and
that the hour appointed having arrived,
the crowd present would proceed to the
performance o., that pleasant but solemn
ceremony. The Cairo Silver Cornet Band
thereupon struck up beautiful "dead
march, - and passing through the aven-
ues Of the cemetery was followed by the
crowd, who scattered flowers upon the
thousands Of little knobs marking the
beds Of the honored dead.
From the cemetery the crowdadjournsd
to the neighboring forests, where II d.
vided into groups and partook OF re-
freshments.
About half past one o'clockSthe crowd
gathered about the speakers stand,
when an organization was perfected by
the election OF the Hon. N. II. Casey,
president, and the following vice presi.
dents and secretaries:

Prayer was offered by the Rev. Mr..
Eddy Of Mound CITY, after which the
Rev. q. II. Foote, Of this city, was intro
duced as orator of the day. The address,
which was read from the manuscript
sheets, was appropriate, and singularly
free from those evidences Of party bias
that are two frequently exhibited on
similar or kindred occasions. 1t was
attentively listened TO, eliciting at times
unmistakable manifestations Of appro-
val. weregrst that we have not space
at our command TO give 1t entire.
When the orator of the day took his
4 seat there were loud and persistent calls
for the Hon. d. w. Mum. That gentle
man took the stand, and had common.
ced "warming with his work, " when the
clouds, which had worn threatening
aspect for an hour or two, commenced
a sitting down OF heavy rain drops. In
a few minutes afterwards the water
came down In torrents, putting a period
to Mr.. Ms remarks, and dispensing the
crowd In every direction in search OF
shelter. A large number were thorough
ly drsnched, particularly those who
failed To heed the warning given out by
the gathering clouds.
