Ny. euyton's Bill on Interest.

The Senate. on Thursday, had under con
alteration Mr.. Guyton's bill 10 amend sec
ton 1I41, Code Of 1880, as 70 allow Is per
cent. interest on money before judgment
and allow only 6 per cent after Judgment.
4 SIR. Guyton spoke in favor OF The bill.
He Represented TINT money likes any
OTHER commodity ought to Be allowed 70
btiug what 1t was forth. lie said that
many fathers and others who had money
were unwilling 20 lend Il for only ten per
cent as now. That many farmers who
would be willing to borrow noney for short
periods at 12l or IL per cent. we're now
forced to buy goods on credit at 80: 40
or eten 80 per cent. advance on cash
prices.
Mr.. Keith moved to indefinitely post
poDe the bin
Mr.. Sykes opposed the bill, saying that
in his town as much money as desired could
be obtained on good personal or bonded
security, or on United States bonds NJ per
cont. That he did not believe the produc-
tiyenoss of tho State was more than per
cent, and that interest should correspond
with the productiveness Of the country.
He would rather reduce than Increase the
rate Of interest.
At,-Guyton; Knew that banks on po.-
sonRl or very large landed security would
lend money at the rate spoken OF, but gen
orally tho trouble and expense necessary 10
obtain such lonns and oYor satisfactory Sc
ourlty made the cost OF money greater thnn
thclrhte he desired Besides men who could
notlget money at all under existing circum.
stances, could snsily procure II from neigh
tb6rlng farmers who were near end could
tgist their personal attention 10 the collec-
itioi Of the debt by giving n pledge upon n
growing crop or upon the land little above
the money loaned.
| Mr. Burkitt-While ordinarily he thought
That money like any thing else ought to
! sell for its market value, he thought the
rate Of interest was high enough and he
would vote 70 indefinitely postpone tho
bill 4.
We are OF the opinion that this bill wns
good one. Indeed We would like to see
lail restrictions taken Of the lending Of
! Rohey. We believe that farmers and con.
Gamers generally could get goods at lower
/ prices BY paying interest on money and
Ibuying for cssh than paying the interest
on the goods, In the one case we know the
interest they pay in. the other, it is impps.
sible TO ascertain it. 4.tf tn

pros he'd TEE CLARIoE the other day,

turei
We simply replied that all parties an
this State, few years ago, when the
Radicals'were in power, engrafted pro-
vision in the constitution prohibiting
the payment Of these bonds, and that
we supposed It would be bard to find a
member Of the present Legislature who
ad tn: temerity 10 Offer such a bill.
When the carpctbaggers had the gov
eminent Of this State in their .unholy
koeping-backed by Federal power--an
attempt was made by persons represent
Ing foreign bondholders, as theylsaid, 70
Ok this old rcpudiated debt on the STATE
and it was apprehcnded as many Of The
Legislators and public officers had beer
well supplied with bonds, that they
would succeed, but they did not, snc
now we think they might as we'll let tbs
bonds stay where the constitution fixes
them. Xxx
