The Attachment OF wages for Debt.
We have GENE across very intelligent
men who are inclined to stigmatizr iho
agitation for the repeal Of 50 much Of tho
attachment law as authorizes the attach
mcnt Of wages as an Effort to relieve men
Of thur Just obligations. We do not doubt
that similar objections were urged against
the repeal OF the laws for imprisonment
for debt, and tnat they have been urged
against every step which has br"n tikth
toward the abolition OF ancient laws and
customs which made the debtor in effect,
NOT in name, the slave of his creditor
And yet such changes have not, in the
long run, proved injurious to society or
diminished the amount Of credit extended
to those deserving IT,
We are bound to take the cH.tt a. well
aS the intent of laws into consideration;
aud all WIN have any knowledge
Of thc way in which this attach.
ment Of wages works know that
it produces great hardship, and has in a
measure precisely the effect Of lmprlsun-
ment for debt-ihat IA, il convers n self
supporting producer into non-pioducet,
who has in some way or other to he sup
ported by those who do work. II it IS
brought to bear against an unfortunate
hn' deserving man ii depr ygs him aud hi,
family of the means of support, unless he
shall subject himself TO n risk of the rtpe-
tition Of the calamity by running still fur
thcr into debt. If brought to bear in the
case Of disrepuluble man, whose il tenn
perance. extravaganza, or disposition to
hirk havi led him into the difficulty, he
caves the city to find work elsewhere If
he can, and if he has family here he
simply "knOcks OIL work. and "luais.'i
But laying aside the evil effects of the
practical working Of the law, we doubt
very much if it is tight in principle. \
mans property is properly sci2ablc for his
debts, for his possession Of ii is Que of the
considerations which influence the extern
sion of credit to him, but man has no
right to mortgage his person or his LABOR,
especially if others be dependent upon
him for support. The product Of mans
labor is his means Of living and we can
see no essential difference between the
plcdging of this for debt and the pledging
Of the 'pound OF flesh" which Shylock
demanded; for, as the jew himself says
after his defeat
You take my life
| When You do take the means hereby live.
Certainly a State which feels bound 10
protect its citizens against their own weak
ness and the iulatuatlou of hope by the
maintenance of usury laws cannot consis-
| tently lead its toiling sons into trap like
this. The proper basis for the extcn- ION
OF credit to a non-properiy holder is the
creditors confidence in his DEBTORS ability
and Willingness to pay. 1t is matter OF
business judgment with him, and if he
makes a mistake he must bear the loss
cntailed by it just as he boar the loss OF
any other mistake of Judgment he make
in the conduct Of hi- business.

The singing of the "homc'' Children
last evening reminded us Of something we
have for long time intended TO say, and
that is, that we think it almost time that
that very gentlemanly and doubtless deyo-
ted, peIipatetic philanthropist, the mama
ger Of the "lIomu for Little Wanderers,
had ceased to pay visits to our city in behalf
OF that institution. 1t doubtless well de-
serves help, hut our own Home for Flicnd-
loss Children needs all the help our pc1-
Pile can give in this direction.

Fuel for the Poor.

.-.,.,-.. .l-,.s. RICHMOND, Marcn 70, lSi2.
Please acknowledge 225 bushels of supe-
rior lump coal for the poor, received by the
Danville road, from Robert Marx. ..
- Eighteen families have been made com.
Portable by this thoughtful donation. This
acknowledgment is made without Mr.. Marks
consent, but with the hope that it may excite
be brought to Richmond free Oh any of the
railroads, if intended for the poor.
'3 / take this occasion to say to those, espe-
cially the wealthy, who send persons to me
for relief, under the impression, of course,
that contributions to considerable amount
are made through me to the poor. that in the
past twelve months only STA has been re-
ceived for this purpose. .s.s.z.-e s..,.
This sum was given by four ~ persons In
this city, and would not supply the wants of
the Door who call upon me one geek. Il but
a few Of the many gentlemen who are as able
to help as these would assist, much good
might be done. If the Young Mems Chris
tan. Association would engraft upon their
plans for the moral and intellectual improve
meut of young men some system for the re-
lief of deStitsttion, a "relef society" should
be attempted by other parties before the next
winter. But with the perfect organization
of SO many Jealous ChristiaE young men as
this society contains, 4 special sub-organiza-
ton might be created that would impress
itself wonderfully upon the good opinion OF
this community. The catholic spirit of the
Young Mems Christian Association is we'll
adapted to illustrate that Heaven-born charity
that knows neither sect, age, condition, or
color, doing good to all, and doing most for
the most helpless. The strong may take care
of themselves, but Love carries the cripple
in her arms. WILLIAM W. PARKER.

A PUBLIC DEBATE by members of the Philo-
Logan Society of Richmond College Oh the
rightfulness of the dispossession of the
aborigines from their homes took place on
Friday night. Quite number of visitors,
male and female, were present to enjoy the
entertainment and encourage the young
men. The disputants were Messrs. Scott OF
Orange, Hundley of King and Queen, Luck
of Bedford, and Raymond of Elizabeth City.
All acquitted themselves handsomely. There
was but one opinion as to the superiority OF
the speeches. The audience came away
highly grati6ed.
