section q provides that such property
(nesning that property which, by the theu
existipe law of the State, was not exempted
from lew upon execution, and which, oy
force of the bankrupt law, had come into the
hands of the assignee,) shall be divided
amongst the creditors whose claims shall
have been proved and allowed.
It Seems evident from these TWO sectlons
that what is surrendered by the bankrupt a.
the time of bankruptcy shall be distributed
10 his creditors, and that what is then ex
empt by law he shall retain. F..
The exemption allowed is not a matter in
the discretion of the court. 1t is matter Of
right so far as both the creditors and bank
riot are concerned, and the amount of the
exemption, the property out of which it
shall come. and the description of person
who NAV claim it, are all to be determined
nv the law existing when the bankruptcy is
adjudicated. ~

der the bankrupt law which follows the eX'
emption laws of the States.
So far this court has held heretofore IL
is insisted now, however, that the act OF
March 3, 1873, has modified the bankrupt
law in this respect.
1t is argued that since the passage OF that
act the exemption allowed by law is that eX-
emption which was provided by State laws
of 1871, and that this exemption shall take
precedence of and be paramount to all liens
by judgment or decree OF any State court
So far as this act of March 3, 1873, is de-

The message sent by Governor Moses
TO the Legislature Of South Carolina
shows in what terrible financial
plight that State is. With popula.
tion OF only 705,606, there is State
debt of over s20,000,000, or nearly
thirty dollars for each inhabitant.-
This is about half as much pro rata as
the national debt of the United States,
bat is far moro burdonsome upon the
State than tho national debt is, for the
reason that tho money. 10 meet the
charges upon it is raised entirely by
direct taxation. The people of the
State are now taxed SO heavily that it
is almost q misfortune 10 hold proper.
ty, yet the Governor suggests that
they be still moro heavily taxed in
order that the debt may be refunded
and tho finances put into something
like q sound condition. In 1870, nc.
cording 10 the United States census,
South Carolina had q State debt
amounting to s7,665, 900, and though
only three years have elapsed since
then the Indebtedness has nearly tre-
bled, the funded debt alone being
twice as largo as the total debt in 1870.
Such showing rs this can only be
attributed to most wretched misman-
agement but nothing better could be
expected IN State where the Legs.

men who can neither read or write, and

The NORTHERN PACIFIC SMASH
Tho Now York Sun pertinently re.
marks The disastrous collapse Of the
Cookies has not only brought great
suffering to thousands Of families
throughout the various States, but il
has efiectually blighted the prospects
of numerous aspiring towns in tho
Territories. Only a few months ago
tho papers were filed with glowing
accounts of the brilliant future await
ing the prospective city Of Bismarck,
tho point whero the Northern Pacific
road strikes the Upper Missouri river,
and where it was believed n CONNER
cial town of great importance would
be speedily developed. A gentleman
directly from that place recently in
formed the Sioux City Journal that
business has almost entirely ceased
there; that the only thing making
any show of life at the time of his de-
parturo was the building of some cav
airy quarters for United States troops.
On the same authority it is said that
the railroad company were preparing
TO abandon the Western division of
tho road from Fort Seward to Bis
marck, q distance Of one hundred
miles, and were straining every nerve
TO get away with the doors and win
dows of the station houses before a
snow storm should come and cork the
whole thing up. The Journal says
"Only three trains week are now
run into Bismarck, and good mule
team would be ample accommodation
for the amount Of travel over the line.
Our informant was the only paying
passenger on the train he left Bis
march by. Tho other passengers were
dead broke gamblers beating their
way back to civilization"

STILL MORE BLowING.-Secretary
Richardson says the Treasury depart
mcnt is Swell prepared for war" We
are pleased TO learn that it is prepared
for something, for We have evidence
that it is not being run on a peace
footing. A few weeks ago the Sec
retary made great blow about specie
payments, which he intended TO in
augurate across tho elegant marble
counters of the Department A few
thousand dollars were paid out, when
the movement collapsed, and we hear
no more of it. 1t evidently was not
prepared for peace. Now, if we have
war with Spain, and land armies in
Cuba, wo must be prepared to pay
our troops in gold and silver, because
the Spaniards would not receive our
paper money for articles bought by
the soldiers. If the Treasury Depart
ment is ready for this it is then well
prepared for war, but not otherwise.

years ago TO the cities of New Orleans

that not moro than $4,000 Of the

that tho money should be devoted TO

SOME DIFFERENCE Tho Philadcl.
phia Bulletin thinks that the Governor
Of Delaware has become as much of
nepotist as Grant, because he has ap-
pointed his brother.in-law, Willard
salisbury, Chancellor of the State
The appointment is certainly sus-
picions one, on account of the rela.
tionship between the parties, but it
should be remembered that while Will
lard Salisbury has long been known
as an able lawyer, and has been elect
cd by tho people to high Office, the rel
ativcs on whom Grant has showered
iavors and the emoluments Of the
Treasury were never heard of before
outside of the family, and even among
their immediate friends were never
suspected Of being fitted to hold tho
most inferior position Of public trust.
