Datney, Morgan & Co,, as holders of the bills of the Bank of the State, on behalf of themselves and others, some time since filed their bili in the Court of Equity, claiming that the assets of the bank should be sold and the proceeds applied to the payment of the notes of the bank which were oul The Baring Brothers & Co., of Lo and others of this country, who are the holders owners of the bonds known as the fre loan bonds, filed their an- swers, Saree a the following rights:—First, that by t the 1st of June, . entitled “An act for rel city of duty of the president and directors of the Bank of the State of South Carolina to make proper provi- sion for the punctual payment of the PF ein such loans a8 may be effected upon the credit of the State, under the provisions of this act, and algo for the ul- timate payment of the principal thereof.” Second, that by the other sections of the act the assets of the bank were made directly responsible to the holders of the bonds, and that these, therefore, had a6 claim as creditors of the bank a8 & corpo. ral and upon the asseta of the same, as as upon the State itself. Third. that the assets of the bank were, therefore, under the existing laws of the Legislature, pledges of the past, liable primarily to the payment of the fire loan bonds and then to the outstanding bills and notes, and that any other con- struction would impair the obligations of contracts and be contrary to good faith, equity or conscience, ‘The merits of this cause are now pending before the Court of Equity. It has been subinitted to the law, and by the law it should be determined. In fact, it cannot legally be otherwise, for by the provisions of even the existing statutes it is declared that the Chancellors of the Court of Equity shail, until the first day of January, A. D. 1869, ‘continue to discharge the duties and functions of their respective offices for the di ition of causes which are now pend- ing.”? And this is one of the very causes ‘now nding.” It is clear, therefore, that the Assembly in Columbia, is neither competent to decide the im- portant bye questions involved, nor has it the au- thority. It 18 simply another attempt at radical legislation, without regard to the recoguized tri- bunals of the State, and which can only end in con- fusion and injustice. In other words, it is a matter entirely for the courts of the country, and not for the legislative department, THE GULF STRCAM. [From the Worcester Spy,) ‘The excessive drought in England, the unusually violent and continued rain storms on our eastern coast, the icebergs which early in the season block- aded the Gulf of St. Lawrence, one of which cut the old Atlantic cable, and which have been reported by captains of whaling ships floating in immense numbers in the northern seas, have been attributed to eccentricities on the part of the Guif Stream. This immense body of water flowing from the Ca- ribcean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico in a channel as well defined as that of a river by its banks, which, however, in the case of the Gulf Stream, are onl: banks of cold water, past the island of Newfound- Jand and spreading out over the eastern Atlantic from southern Europe to Iceland, has been under- stood to cause the comparatively warm and humid atmosphere of the British Isles. The unprece- deni drought which has prevailed there this season may be an indication that the course of this current nas changed and that it now sets more towards the east, The in- ‘| port.

The theory seems plausible enough, but, so far as we know no observations have been made which establish the fact that any change in the course of the Gul fStream has taken place. If the fact is so it will not be long without proof from the observation of shipmasters, The eifect of such a change, causing as it must a natural and permanent modification of the climate of the whole of Western Europe, would be an interesting subject of specu- lation, [Such a change in the course of the Gulf Stream has alrpady been noted by shipmasters arriving at this port; but whether it has been accompanied by a modification of the climate of Western Europe, as suggested by our contemporary, we are not in- formed, STATEN ISLAND FIREMEN.

The new hook and ladder machinery has been handsomely subscribed for by some of the fire insurance companies of the city and by residents of the island, The firemen upon the island are a gallant set of fellows and take a real interest both in putting out fires and in putting down disorder.
