THE FUNDING BILL.

By far the most important act of our
Legislature is the passage of the bill to fund
the past-due State bonds and coupons, by
4 vote of 45 to %. The contest over this
bill was the most acrimonious and exciting
of the session, and its most bitter opponents
were Hons. q. W. Martin, Jesse Martin,
Cummins, Head, MulvihiIl, Jameson,
Kerr, Moore and Tillman. We believe the
manner of funding the State debt, as en-
bodied in this bill, was the best that could
be done under tie circumstances. 1t re
leases the State from the stigma Of ever
squirting at reputation, restores her credit
aud slaves off the payment of the debt forty
years, when We believe it can be refunded
at four per cent. Of course the bondholder
does not wish to collect the debt, but only
to feel sure of the payment of the interest.
The bill does not fund the "Tar bonds" OF
"Torbett issue."
The correspondent of the Courier-J0ur
nal, writing of this bill says:
"The speeches in its favor, by Hons. j.
R. Bond, Jeup, Elder, Orr, Leach, Linds-
ley, Houk and Mcfarland, were worthy of
their colleagues and constituents. The lat
ter gentleman, especially pressed the legal
phase of the bonds and coupons, while
Judge Houk closed in very able argument,
reviewing the history OF like schemes in
the countries of the old world. He dwelt
especially on the remarkable example fur
nished in the history OF the public debt of
Great Britain. When she first funded her
debt of forty million pounds, her wisest
statesmen predicted financial ruin. She
was compelled to fund at ten per cent. in
terest; and yet that national debt had in
deed proved national blessing. She had
gone on piling it up, prospecting meanwhile
as she never prospeRd before, her COM
merce whitening every sea, confounding the
predictions of the most sagacious, until
now her public debt amounted to seven
hundred millions ofpounds, or three bill
lions, five hundred millions of dollars in
our currency, while her consols found cred
it in all the markets of the world, and she
could borrow money at three per cent, so
great was the confidence in her ability to
pay the interest, and the certainty with
which she has all along paid it. Both Adam
Smith and David Hume had predicted ruin;
though the former, from whom Mr.. Cum
minis quoted, had, according to Macauley,
acknowledged the error of his Judgment.
As the time for the final vote drew near,
the greatest excitement and confn sion pre-
vailed. Although the motion for the pre-
Vious question carried, members persisted
in speaking until forced to come to order
by Mr.. McGaughey, after an appeal to the
House. This very important measure will
prove the salvation of the State, and her
bonds, which have fluctuated from forty to
fifty cents, will 90 at once in Wall street to
ninety and a hundred.n

The Key of Catalonia.
MADRID, March 3I-Dispatches from
Barcelona say the situation in that city is
grave. Inten;;--encs reached there that the
town of Bergs was SSttured by the Car
lists Friday, and had been destroyed oy
fire by the Insurgents, who before apfra1seing
the torch saturated number of buildings
with petroleum. The news of the burn
ing of the town created great excitement
in Barcelona. The populace were assem-
bling 10 the streets in large crowds and dis
orders were feared. Tho authorities were
making every effort to allay the excitement
and prevent disturbance. Reprisals were
threatened against the clergy and num-
Der Of known Carlist sypathizers. Bergs
contained hospital and several converts,
and had over six thousand population.
Later-Threats to Burn Churches and
Murder Priests.
Gen. Contreras, Captain General of
Barcelona, has resigned, and Gen. Velaude
is his successor. 1t is expected that Gala
lonia WILSON be declared in a state Of
seige. Acts Of laWless violence are of daily
occurrence in Barcelona. The burning of
churches and a massacre of priests are
threatened. The authorities are doing all
In their power to prevent such outrages.
Malaga Takes Its Fate In Its Own
Hands.
Ten Thousand armed citizens maintain
order in the city of Malaga, but refuse to
admit the regular troops or Government
customs officers, nor will they allow vessels
conveying soldiers to other points to remain
in port. They provide for their expense
by taxing neutrality-suspicious.. In the absence
of customs officials, smuggling is carried on
to large extent. The citizens are divided
ultra federalists.- The moderates now have
control but the ultras are gaining strength.

PARIS, March 3I.-The Government is

LONDON, March 31.-Rev. Mr.. Miles,

ting all international disputes, he says are
encouraging. Since his return to London,
accompanied by Minister Schenck, he had
an interview with Gladstone which was Of
the most satisfactory character.

done to the building in which their office
in San Francisco is located by the explosion
of nitro glycerine which caused so much
CONSERVATION few years ago. The ques-
ton was whether as common carriers they
were liable for having in their possession
the fatal box and consequently for the dam
ages done by its explosion to other portions
of the building than the rooms occupied by
them. The decision below was in their
favor and it is affirmed the court say, if the
Express carriers are chargeable with notice
of the contents of packages carried by them
they must have right to refuse to receive
packages unless their contents are known.
It would be unreasonable to require them
in that case to accept as conclusive in every
instance the information given by the
owner. They must be at liberty whenever
in doubt to exact the right of inspection of
the contents as a condition of carriage.
But doctrine which would lead to such a
cause would cause the business great in
convenience and seldom accomplish any
good. Fortunately the law is not unreas-
enable, and does not enforce such doc
trine, and the conclusion is that the carrier
is not chargeable with notice of contents of
packages, and should not be held liable for
an act done without bis fault
State Bank Bills.
No. 1853, State of South Carolina, ex.
rel. Wagner against the Treasurer of
Charleston county. The question in this
case was whether the tax officer was bound
to accept bills of the Bank of South Caro-
lima in payment of taxes, the allegation be-
ing that by its charter the bills of the bank
were to be receivable for all dues to the
State. The County Treasurer answered
that the bills were issued in 1881; and were
in aid of the rebellion, and were, therefore,
not legal tender; aud secondly, that the
clause of the charter under which payment
was rendered had been repealed. The first
question was found by the jury in favor of
the bank, but the court held that the clause
requiring the State to receive bills for taxes
was subsequently repealed. This ruling is
sustained here, and the Judgment is sf-
frmed.
