The proposed extension of the power to sus-
pend the writ of habeas corpus until the 4th OF
March next has passed the Senate, but there
is a fair prospect of its failure in the House.
Unless the House concurs, this power is taken
away from President Grant the moment Con-
gress adjourns. Both Houses have rescinded
former action, and agreed to adjourn sine die
on Monday next,

The. state-Exeeutive- Committee

Tn Justice to the gentlemen composing the
Democratic State Committee, we publish acard
. over their signatures in this issue, explaining
the authority under which they acted in calling
the proposed State Gonsention on the l1th OF
June, and announcing their motives for issuing
the said call. Although we are opposed to the
meeting of this Convention, we never ques-
toned the right or authority ofthese gentle
men III the premises and We do not think that
= they have for q moment exceeded their powers
OF transgressed the line of their duty, after the
:. National Convention, was duly. called, But
lss.here -wesceaeeiye chat it was the duty and
privilege of individual Democrats throughout
= the State to canvass the propriety of meeting
! in Stats Convention, and after mature delibe-
ration, we reached the conclusion that it was
@ @nnwiss to take part in the National Democratic
> Convention, SO far as South Carolina vas in
osolyed in,the probable result at Baltimore. If
such had.been. the prevailing sentiment among
the newspapers, we are inclined to think that
the State Executive Committee would have ia
ken no further steps in the matter and would
have acquieseed in that conclusion, unless the
people moved promptly towards arranging to
send delegates to Columbia, in despite of con-
I.trary advice. In any event, 1T was never our
intention to criticise the action of the State
Executive Committee, although it seems that
others, agreeing with us on the main question,
have seen proper to regret the call for State
Convention, and have deemed it wrong on the
PIT Of these gentlemen. ,,g. s...ls. ~.

MONEY EASY.
The money market was made active early in the
day by the ''bear" cliques, who endeavored 10 in
duce sringcncy, and the dealings pretty large
at full seven per cent After two O'Clock the ''bu'
cliques entered the market, and forced the rate
down 10 four per cent when accounts had been
generally made up. Among the government dealers
the rates were i've and six per cent from which the
inference Is fair that had the rates on stocks
not been manipulated by che cques they
would nave ranged from six to seven per cent.
Prime paper was quoted sh per cent discount.
ADVANCE IN FOREIGN EXCHANGE
The scarcity Of bills against exports OF domestic
produce ana a steady demand for remittance from
the importers strengthened the foreign exchanges
enough to induce the leading bankers to advance
their rates to-day, which they did at late hour in
the afternoon, as full test had been made Of the
capacity OF the market to conform to higher
quotations. The following is the new scale of
rates:-Sterling, sixty days, commercial 1OsX

ware Of the st. Croix Avis. They both
aim at your ruin ; they have conspired
together to lay this ne-policemaster snare
at your feet to entrap you, they have held
out a saving Of the paltry sum of S 10000;

beware ofrevolutionists -beware ofcommu-
nists--spaaknot to me of improvement

Look at the wretched state of our poor
mother-country no security of life or pro-
perty there, and all owing to the pauclty
of policemasters. Let their misery be a
s~alutary warning to us. The idea is crude,
absurd, stupid, I say again beware Of the
trap, beware of leaps in the dark. !
