The President and Cabinet are at q
loss what to do with the troops, the
standing army being largely in excess
of the National necessities. We are told
that the project to distribute them in
small garrisons throughout the South is
now under consideration, and will doubt
less be accepted; the only obstacle in the
way of such disposition being dislike
upon the part of the War Department to
make the military in any locality subser-
that it never occurs to the President and
Cabinet to muster them ont of service
and thereby save large and useless out
lay to the Treasury. This solution
would have been speedily arrived at. as
far as the soldiers were concerned, had
it not been for the many officers who
would have thus found "Othello's occu-
patton gone" Even as it is, the num-
ber of officers in commission is three
times as great as would serve the present
number of enlisted men on q war foot
ing, but they serve to maintain the dig
nifty of the service, reward personal
friends of the Executive, and, moro than
that, will prove handy in case of any of
those sudden emergencies 80 often aris-
ing under military governments. AS for
garrisonirg the South, it is not only un-
necessary, but may prove highly preju-
dicial to the public peace, in fermenting
discords, otherwise readily avoided.
The Washington correspondent of the
Richmond Dispatch says:
Demands come to the War Depart.
ment every day for troops to suppress
disorders and instructions. Some times
it is to break up illicit distilleries or to
protect internal revenue detectives; at
others, because of imagined Ku Klux
operations in the Southern States, and
for all manner of uses. The demands. if
complied with in full, would hardly leave
q corporal's guard in any one place.
Many of the stories are, of course, for
political effect. But they are losing
their influence, and those in power begin
to complain that the instances are too
frequent in which the demands for troops
to preserve the laws are made without
sufficient Justification"

Tho lnvlolabiIisy OF Records.

The csass aP Before Judge Melton, Te-
Gently, is one involving an important
principle. The sgist of the matter is
simply this: The Secretary of State, as
suming that the Legislature had intended
to use the term ''Blackuiue' where tho
term "BarnreTSappeared on the record.
erased Barn,ceu and inserted in lieu
thereof Black0iBe. Whereupon he was
called upon to furnish a copy of the
original bill, with copy Of the erasures
and alterations. This he declined to do,
upon the advice OF the Attorney General.
AS we understand it, the writ of man
damus was. therefore, served upon the
Secretary OF State, cnioining him to re-
store the words by him erased. Upon
this issue was Joined, and Messrs. Pope,
Melton, Chamberlain, Hutson and Al
drich engaged in high debate; Messrs.
Pope, Aldrich and Hutson for the writ,
and Messrs. Melton and Chamberlain,
contra. We have few words to say.
We care very little whether the Courts
of Barnwell are held at Blackville or
Barnwell. That is matter of local con-
venience. But we do hold that an inn
portant principle has been violated by
the Secretary of State. We take it that
he designed no harm. We presume that
he did not feel the force of his own act.
But, in our judgment, it is obvious that
he had not the shadow of right to
change the record. When called upon
to make the change, he ought to have
replied, sI cannot. dare not. shall
not. what is writ, is writ" But he
acted otherwise. In that easy and pre-
vailing spirit peculiar to his political as
sociates, he did not hesitate to go behind
the great seal of the State and to disre-
gard the word of the law, in his am
bilious desire to carry out the spirit.
With the Secretary we have no special
issue to make. We are disposed to say,
ego and sin no more" But we do re-
gard it our duty to say that he has COM
mitted serious mistake, and furnished
what might prove to he dangerous pre-
cedent. We do not exaggerate at all
when we say, that the records that go into
the Secretary of States Office must be
preserved in their integrity, or the very
foundation of government will receive o
shock. In this case, the subject matter
is of litt!o moment, but tho principle is
of yeat importance.

tions of elegance and taste are to be con-
sidered, rs we'll as convenience and
economy. In making such purchases it
is desirable to find an establishment
combining these advantages, with relia-

we believe is that of Frost, Black g. Co.,

ment may be found in our advertising

The SPRING TRADE.-Accordingt to the
New York Daily Bulletin, (good enough
commercial authority,) the spring trade
thus far has been anything but satisfac.
tory. 1t says:
Cali sections of the country have been
amply represented by buyers, who speak
hopefully of the condition of business
in the interior, and are apparently in
tending to buy freely, but their purchases
have been confined to small parcels for
supplying immediate wants, and the ag-
gregate of business has been compara-
lively light. This rule applies even to
the Southern merchants, who usually
buy early, and who this season are pre-
pared to take larger supply of goods
than at any period since the war. There
are the main elements for an active,
healthy trade, and yet the commission
merchants and jobbers universally com
plain of unsatisfactory sales."
The New York Journal of Commerce
says:
"There is more activity in trade, al
though the purchases have been made
cautiously, and, to great extent, in
moderate bills. There arc no such
sweeping sales as usually characterize the
height of busy season, but the demand
is all the healthier for this reason, and
the risk of n sharp reaction much di-
minished. We regret to notice dispo-
sition on the part of come houses having
ample capital, to speculate in cotton or
take n turn in stocks"
