Attention Ladies'!

A dry goods firm in Phila-
delphia recently sued man
for the amount of a bill run up
by bis wife. Judge Thayer, in
his charge to the jury, said :
ut is a false and foolish notion
for tradespeople to entertain,
that p husband is bound to pay
all the bills contracted by his
wife. No such monstrous doc.
trine is allowed in the law
Tradesmen must ascertain the
facts and the true relations of
man and wife before allowing
the latter to run up bills which
he is to be looked to to pay"

The year 1872 is nov com
menced and It's untrodebfuturt
must be met and settle,8g The
year upon which we have en-.
tered will prove an eyentful
one to the people Of this coun-
try. During the preseHt year,
the great battle between con-
stitutional liberty and csntral--
lied despotism--the pplitical
Cog and Magog-wll be
fought and settled. Mready
the parties of this greA con-
test are marshalling tlI8ir re-
spective forces and Citing
ready to try the fortunespf the
pending political war. The
year 1872 will be ms6 Z ahle
for the triumph of Democratic
principles, or for the downfall
Of Republican institutions on
this continent. We are glad
that the issues between Democ.
racy and Jacobinism promise
to be so sharply defined that
the American people need
not misapprehend them. We
want to see no lodging of
issues by either party; if Rad
icalism means Capitalization,
despotism military rule, pecu-
lation and defalcation, let its
apologists have the manlines to
assert it; if Democracy have a
remedy for the ills which afilict
our country, let the friends of
liberty and reform nail their
true colors to their true colors
to their masthead. This year
will test the timbers of the old
ship-Constitution. Her tim
bers have been cracking under
the strain ''loyal," and we
know that she cannot weather
the gale under the management
of the present inexperienced
C commanders and seamen. The
Democracy must ship a corps
of their best men and skillful
helmsmen and then use just as
little canvas as possible, or all
will be engulfed in the whirl'
pool of Jacabinism.
We sincerely hope that the
year 1872 will prove a year Of
political jubilee to the down
trodden people of the South,
and that the Democracy may
return and come to their politi'
cal zion with songs and ever
lasting joy.

When a crisis befalls you,
and the emergency requires
moral courage and noble man
hood to meet it, be equal to
the requirements of the mo.
ment, and rise superior to the
obstacles in your path. The
universal testimony of men
whose experience exactly coin
cides with yours, furnishes the
consoling reflection that diff
culties may be ended by oppo.
sition. There is no blessing
equal to the possession of a
stout heart. The magnitude
of the danger needs nothing
more than a greater effort than
ever at your hands. If you
prove recreant in the hour of
trial, you are the worst recre-
ants, and deserve no COM
passion. Be not dismayed or
unnamed when you should
be bold and daring, unAinch.
ing and resolute. The cloud
whose threatening murmurs
you hear and dread is pregnant
with blessings, and the frown,
whose threatening murmurs
you hear and dread is pregnant
with blessings, and the fTown,
whose sternness now make you
shudder and tremble, will ere
long be succeeded by a smile
of bewitching sweetness and
benignity. Then be strong
and manly, oppose-equal forces
to open difficulties, keep a
stiff upper lip, and trust in
Providence. Greatness can
only be achieved by those who
are tried. The condition of
that achievement is confidence
in ones self.

No Foreigner need Apply.

Several propositions to
amend the Constitution 80 that
citizens Of foreign birth can be
eligible to the Presidency have
been made in both Houses at
this session; but on the 8th
inst, under the rules in force
on Monday, a test vote was
taken on squJ56fon, and
obtained a bare majority of a
dozen votes, while two thirds
were required. Some of the
Republicans objected to the
preamble proposed by General
Morgan, of Ohio, which stated
the fact that, while negros
were eligible to the Presidency
and Vice Presidency, white
naturalized citizens who fought
for the country all though the
war, were disfranchised. The
sixty.fve votes against the
proposed amendment were
nearly all Republicans.

A SS0,OOO,OOO Radical
Robbery.

We have published frequent
items in relation to the whole,
sale swindling of the people of
South Carolina by the Radical
carpet bag officials of that
State, but were unable to give
the facts in the case. Recently
a committee was appointed to
investigate the matter, and the
astounding fact is disclosed
that State Bonds, to the
amount of over Twenty nine
Millions of dollars have been
issued, for which the State has
nothing to show, 1t seems
that Bigamist G. G. Bowen,
who has been pretty severely
.oxer.the Goals himself,
has taken the position of a re-
former, in order, no doubt, to
wipe out the stigma that rests
upon him, and has introduced
articles for the impeachment Of
Governor Scott and Parker,
the State Treasurer, who have
had the handling of the money.
The former, by a trick, has
succeeded in staving off the
question until after the holi-
days, but it will then be
pushed. In an interview with
Bowen on Thursday he stated
that Scot, Parker and Co., had
issued six millions and a half
dollars more Bonds than were
authorized by law, and that
they sold to the State at
extravagant prices, that being
the purchasers, as State officers.
Bowen says that the Demo
cratic members Of the Legis.
lature will support him in this
investigation, and that he will
continue it until the thieves
are all caught.
