was named to agree upon basis, which

Tickets will be good for scvcn days at

to the latter can stand until tho agents

AT TIIJER OWN RISK,
Judge SimontOn Holds tho Constablcs
Liable for Seizures.
News and Courier. |

News and Courier.
Judge Simonton yesterday rem
dered his decision in the case of
rMihiam Beckroge versus Harling
and Roach.
Beckroge, a citizen of Georgia,
came into the State to be married,
and sent by express wines, cigars,
etc., contained in trunk, for his
marriage feast. Whilo these articles
were in the express Office at Charles.
ton-that is, while they were still in
the hands of on Inter State common
carrier-they were seized by tho two
State Constables, who went into the
express Office and opened the trunk
with key and took away the trunk
and contents, and up to this time
have refused to return thom to
their owner. Benilroge brought suit
for damages in tho United States cir
cult court against tho con-
stables, suing them as individuals,
and they we're arrested and held to
bail in the sum of $2,1O0.
Thereupon the Attorney General
appeared for tho defendants, claim
ing that they were acting as con-
stables for the State of South Caro-
lima, and urging that they had an
immunity from suit and arrest as
such constables, under the dispen-
sary law and moved to set aside the
order of arrest.
The decision Of the United States
court refusing to set aside the arrest
makes clear that the suit against the
individual, as private citizen, and not
against the constables; that the Su-
preme Court Of tho United States
having decided, in Donald vs.. Scott,
that intoxicating liquors were a
subject Of lawful commerce, and
having decided the State dispensary
law unconstitutional and void in
attempting to Interfere with such
commerce, the acts of defendants
could not be justified by any author
ity whatsoever, and that they stood
liable to all the pains, penalties,
suits and punishment for their
wrongs like any private person.
The decision makes it hopeless for
tho officials of the State to attempt
to enforce tho void.provisions of tho
dispensary law, and shows tho do
termination Of the United States Judi
cial authorities to protect in ovory
way the Inter State commerce rights
of the citizen.
In the case of Herkowitz, a rosl-
dent of Charleston, who imported
liquors from Savannah, Ga, which
were sei:ed at the Savannah Rail
road freight depot at Charleston,
the Court likewise hold yesterday
that the constables were liable to
arrest in suit for damages, and re-
fused to vacate the order of ar
rest on motion Of the Attorney Gen-
eral.
Both of these cases finally dispose
of Section id of the Dispensary Act,
which provides that the civil process
arrest procedure Of the State shall
not apply to any officer undor tho
dispensary law as defence to inter
state commerce cases.
The dispensary constable who
soizos liquors at a depot or express
Office does an his own personal risk.

shortly take the places of those youns
mon. Isupposo you cannot realiz,
how many eyes are upon you, ant
how great Is the increasing intores
that is taken in you. You may moi
think that when you are lonely ant
find it difficult to get footing. But
it is true that in place liko this
true interest is taken in you, and
when l loft the school house I came
into place similar to this, whore ]
associated with people whom it was
good to know. Nothing better could
have happened to mo.
TIE MAN WHO IS REALLY POOR.
l spoke just now of tho struggle
for success. What is success? Is it
money? Some of you have all the
money you need to provide for your
wants. Who is the poorest man in
the worldly 1 tell you, tho poorest
man l know of is tho man who has
nothing but money, nothing elso in
the world upon which to dovote his
ambition and thought. That is tho
sort of man l consider to bo tho poor
est in the world. Money is good if
! you know how to uso it.
Now, lot me leave this little word
of counsel for you. Keep Il little led
ger, as I did. Write down in it what
you receive, and do not be ashamed
to write down what you pay away.
See that you pay it away in such n
manner that your father or mothor
may look over your book and see Just
what yen did with your money. 1t
will help you to save money, and that
you ought to do. When I spoke of
poor man with money | spoke
against the poverty of that man who
has no affection for anything olse, or
thought for anything olso but mon
i ey. That kind of man does not holp
his own character, nor does ho build
up tho character of another.
Bofore I leave you L will road Il
few items from my lodger. l find in
looking over it that l was saving mon
ey all this time, and in tho course OF
few years I had saved thousand
dollars. Now, as to some of my OK
penses. [ 500 that from November
"a, 1855, to April, 1855, I paid for
clothing 5000. I 500 also here anoth-
er item which I am inclined to thinl,
ls extravagant, because I remember
l used to wear mittens. The itom
is a pair of fur gloves, for which
paid $3.50. In the samo period
find l gave away $5.58. In one
month l gave to foreign missions, 10
cents; to the Mite Society, so cents,
and thore is also contribution to
the Five Points Mission. l was not
living then in New York, but l sup
pose [ felt that it was in noed OF
help, 80 I sent up IL conts to the
mission. Then to tho venerable teach
or OF my class gave 35 conts, to
make him present. To the poor
people of the church I gave 10 ccnts
at this time, and in January and Feb
ruary following l gave 10 cents moro,
and Il further 10 cents to the foreign
missions, Those contributions, small
as they were, brought mo into direct
contact with philanthropic work, and
with the beneficial work and aims of
religious institutions, and I have
been helped thereby greatly all my
life. 1t is mistake for man who
wishes for happiness and to holp
others to think that he will wait I'M
til he has made fortune before Civ
ing away money to deserving objects.
