^ VOLUME V.NO. 737 CHARLESTON, S. C., MONDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 30, 1867. PRICE FIVE CENTS To the Readers of the Daily NeWS-Our Nevr Terms-Thc Cash System. The announcement that on and after the fir-t of January thc subscription price ot Tnt: DAILY NEWS will be reduced to Six Dollars a year has been received with many substantial marks of appreciation by the public, both in the city and State. But in order to publish a tirst-cla<s paper at that low price, we shall be compelled, in future, to adhere rigorously to the cash sys? tem, and require, invariably, the payment of subscriptions in advance, lt should be gener? ally understood that everything required for the publication of a newspaper-composition, paper, press-work, labor, and expenses of every description-must unavoidably be paid for in CASU at the end of-every week. If the credit system is tolerated, and subscribers neglect to pay promptly, thc losses thus in? curred by publishers in a little while cecome intolerably onerous and oppressive. There are hundreds, however, in our city who, though anxious to take a live newspaper, and willing to pay for it, can ill afford, ut this time, even the small outlay of six dollars To accommodate this class of readers, we have made arrangements by which, on and after New Year's Day, THE DAILY NEWS will be delivered, every morning, before seven o'clock, in all parts of the city, by attentive and experienced newsmen, at EIGHTEEN CBNTS A WEEK, payable weekly. The advantages of this plan are evident ut a glance. Those who take their papers upon the weekly system only pay out their nionc;, week by week, as their papers are received ; they run no risk: they can stop their paper at any time by giving one week's notice ; when they leave the city for a few weeks they can suspend their papers, and be at no expense. The yearly cost at the weekly rate is more than when the subscription at our advertised rates is paid in advance at our offico; "t there is every reason to believe that the new plan will, by its sim? plicity, security, and the smallness of the cash expense, enable many persons to take a daily paper who could not become subscribers for as long a period as six, or even three months. It is our desire to accommodate all classes ot readers, and those who are not able to pay their subscriptions in advance can take advan? tage of the weekly arrangement, which will go into operation on January 1, next.

THE SOLDIERS' LEAGUE PRESTDENTIAL CONVENTION - WHAT GENERAL GILLEM SAYS-DEMOCRATIC CELE? BRATION. The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Sun writes on the 27th instant : Tho movement towards calling a Presidential Convention under the auspices ol tho Soldiers' Leagues, which was inaugurated here a short time since, is taking shape, and such a convention will probably bc called in April. Tho significance of this seems to bo in tho interest of Cliicf Justico Chase for tho Presidency, or at least against Gen? eral Grant. General Gillern, who is here under General Ord s order, socking roi tot'f?r Southern destitution, had another interview with General Grant to-day. In his report General Gill tm shows that three-fifths of the freedmen will he thrown out of employment by the failure of tho planters to plaut cotton. The Democrats arc making elaborate pronara tion for celebrating tho eighth of January nero. Prominent speakers havo been invited from all parts of the country. TUE ST. THOMAS AND ALASKA PERCHASES. The Washington correspondent of the New York Herald says: From a trustworthy source I leam that tho dis? position of thc House of Representatives previous to their adjournment was positively inimical to the consummation of tin- purchase of tho islands of St. Thomas and St. John. Tho recent earth? quakes have had the effect of shaking tho enthu? siasm of many who favored the acquisition, and tho retrenchment agitation has operated unfavor? ably in a pecuniary point of view. This, it is said, accounts for the hesitation of the government in hastening tho transfer until tho overtDwering ob? stacle-an appropriation ot tho necossary moDoy bo either removed or the House lake conclusive action to the contrary. Respecting Alaska, no ap? prehensions are entertained as to thc co-operation of the House, though it is generally known many cold votes will be given in its favor. As the United States Government has already taken formal pos? session ot that hyperborean region, it is argued that a negative ol' the money feat uro in the artair would place the government in a verv awkward position. Upon this ground many will support the msasure who under other circumstances would act adversely. Great efforts will bo made by thc House Committee on Foreign Affairs to carry both purchases. The Reign of Terror In* tnt South. THREE MILLION WHITES AND BLACKS ON THE POINT OE STARVATION-RAPINE AND BLOODSHED NEAR THE RADICAL EQUALITY DOCTRINE TAKING ROOT. We find the following telegraphed from Washing? ton to the New York Herald : One of your travelling correspondents, who has just made an extensivo tour of Louisiana, Geor? gia, Mississippi, Alabama, North Carolina nud South Caroliua, represents tho condition of thc freedmen as heart-rending in the extreme. In all thc cotton districts of those States tho great mass cf the fret dinon are not only on the point of star? vation but possess scarcolv a sufficiency of cloth? ing to cover their nakedness. At most of the rad wa v stations many colored children collect on tho arrival of tho trains and enter into competition witb the famished swine 'and dogs for the posses? sion of the boues thrown by passengers from ihe trains, while scores of lazy negroes collect about the depots ns spectators." In tho corn growing districts the prospects of a lamine are not so near, and wbites and blacks are on friendly terms. Ho declares that the negroes are much more destitute than under tlie o!d slave regime. In many counties of these states the forest's are filled with annod negroes, who hunt game in day time and make raids upon planters' stock at night. Ibu reign of terror is general in upper Louisiana, lower Missis? sippi and the cotton districts of Georgia and tho Carolinas. 'J he destitution, however, is not con? fined to thc blacks. Thousands of thc white po? pulation have not n month's provisions ahead, and no moncv to lay in a supply. Many planters, who were far-seeing, provided a year's supply for their families, but the starving negroes have very generallv pillaged their smoke-houses and grana? ries and stripped them clean. Thc estimate of ?bi number of persons compiled from statistics col? lected by the Executives of thc States and others) who will starve unless Congress provides some re? lief, is three millions, two-thirds of whom .:re ne? groes. Tins estimate embraces Louisiana. Missis? sippi, Alabama, Georgia and the Carolinas. Ho has no estimate ol'tho other unreconstructed State-. Unless prompt action is taken to pr?vido for t je starving freedmen and white; thc pillaging of thc whites will become general.the latter will rt s;st.and a bloodv conflict will be the result. Planters arc gen? erally alarmed und would leave thc country could they raise the means to remove their families. Hundreds sro offering theil bornes for amere song, but can find no purchasers. Plantations that be? fore the wai commanded as high us fiftj dollars per aero can be purchased for ti ve dollars per aero, HO general is the terror thal reigns and the desire ol the owners lo save their families from the out? rages that are threatened by th" negroes, mdess aid comes from the government or li-L' pcop'e of tho North. On the way North be witnessed a Btrildng illustration of tho effect of Radical teach? ings. At Greensboro', N. C., a po ly of negro emi? grants entered the cars. In tho party were two very pretty white girls. Investigation resulted m learning that they were the daughters of an Lii?f lish gold miner m Guilford county, N. C., and had voluntarily lett thou- homes a? the mistresses of two coal black negroes. They arc destined lo Vin? cennes, Ind., and Xenia. Ohio. Much indignation was manifested by the white passengers, nud threat.; of lynching the negroes were indulged in. but not carried out. -A largo bundle, winch was tumbled about on the ground in tho hurry of extricating the suffer? er? at Angola, at last emitted a wail, and on bi inc opened was found '"tontaina six months old baby, without a serai. Jj upon its body. Thc mother was dead. TUE FOREIGN' MAILS. i Kenia infill in Kngland-Thc (Tcrkcnivcll jj Explosion-English Movement to Estab? lish ii Southern l ii.v -rsity--Lamm- . table Destitu? lon-The Pupal States. By the steamet Scotia, at New Voit, wc have the following additional details of foreign news: THE FENIAN AGITATION- THE CLERKENWELL EX? PLOSION. Tho English papers give copious details of the Fenian attempt to blow up thc Clerkenwell Prison, and with thc Fenian movements generally. The London Times, of December 14th, givea tho fol? lowing: Yesterday afternoon an attempt was made to obtain tbe release ol tho Fenian prisoners, Burke and Casey, by blowing up willi gunpow? der Ute outer wall ot the House of Detection at Clerkenwell, in which they are at present eon fined while under remand ; and it succeeded so far as to effect an enormous breach in tho wall, about sixty leet wide at the top, and lessening toward the ground. Unhappily, that was not the whole result. Upward of forty innocent people men, women, and childreti of all ages, some of whom happened to be passim,' at the time- wore injured more or less severely by this gunpowder plot, of whom one was killed on the spot, two have since died, and a fourth is not expected to survive the night. Thirty-six of tho Bufferers wore removed to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, where three died m thc course of the evening*, and six to tho Royal Free Hospital in Gray's Inn Road. Three and four of the wounded were members ot the same family, some were mere infants, and the husband of a woman who has since died of injuries abo sustained, hes in Si. Bar? tholome w'3, shockingly bruised and pros? trated. Others are missing. Thc explosion, which sounded like thc discharge of artillery, occurred at exactly a quarter to four o'clock in the after? noon, when there is still daylight in ever, these short days, and was heard lor milos round. In the immediate neighborhood it produced Hie greatest ionstcrnatiot:; for it blew down houses and shat? tered the windows of others in all directions. The windows of the prison itself, of coarse glass more than a quarter ol an inch thick, were to a largo extent broken, and the side of tho building immediately facing tho outer wall in which the breach was made. r.nd ubont one hundred and fifty feet from it, boars., the marks of the bricks which were hurled against it hy? the oxplosion. The wall surrounding tho pi ison is about twenty-live fee' high, two feet three inches thick at the bottom, and about fourteuti inches thick at the top. Tho scone of the explo? sion is Corporation Row. which runs parallel with tho prison wallon its Northern side, and consisted of houses three stories high- a une of them let out in tenements and others used for various manufacturing purposes. A very circumstantial account of the transaction is given by an intelli g nt little boy named John Abbott, thirteen years of a .jo, who happened to be an eve-witness, and who now lira at M. Bartholomew's Hospital, but, happily, not much injured. The boy lived with his parents at No. 5 Corporation Lane, and wo cannot, perhaps, do botter than Rive his statomont in his own words. About quarter to four o'clock, lie says, ho was standing at Mr. Young's door. No. 5, when ho saw a large barrel close ta the wall of tho prison, and a man leave the barrel and cross the road. Shortly afterward tho man returned with a long squin in each hand. Ono of these ho gave to some boys who were playing in tho street, and the other he thrust into thc barrel. One of the boys was smoking, and ho handed the man a light, which tho man applied to tho squib. Tho man staid a short time until ho saw the squib begin to bum, and thon ho ran away. A police? man ran after him, and when tho policeman arriv? ed opposite No. 5 "the thing wi_nl off." Tho boy saw no more after that, as ho himself was covered with bricks and mortar. Tho man, ho says, was dressed something like a gentleman. There was a white cloth over thc barrel, which was black, and when the niau returned with tho squib ho partly uncovered tho barrel, but did not wholly removo the cloth. There were several men and women in the street at tho time, and children playiug. Three little boys wero standing near the barrel all the time. Some of tho people ran after tho man who lighted thc stjtiib. On Thursday evening .Mr. Henry Pownall, the Chairman of tho County Magistrates, in con? sequence of information he had received, paid a visit to tho prison and directed the Governor, Cap? tain Todd, not to exercise tho prisoners in thc ordinary way vestcrday either as to time or place. Tho wail which his been blown down enclosed a largo open space in which tho prisoners wero accustomed to take exercise. Tho Governor, therefore, had them exercised between nine and ten yesterday mortimer, instead of the usu tl time, which was bon>ooi ..ree and hali-past 'our in tho afternoon, and to this precaution it is "pioliably owing that tho diabolical attempt of yesterday was unsuccessful. THE LONOON PRESS ON THF CLEBKKNWKXL OUTRAOE. Tho London Timos, of the I4tb, in an editorial on the Clerkouwell outrage says : " Tho timo is !iast for domeney and forbearance. The Fenians lave tilled to tho' full thc cup of wrath. In deal? ing with them public ophion will need rather to bo restrained th .n investigated. Ireland has sul fcrcd much at thc hands of her self-constituted representatives, and never more than when shu is made to appear before the woild as the mother of assassins. It may bc that this groat crime will cure many who have taken thc infection of Fo nianism. At least let England show that what? ever may have to be done, she will allow neither lear nor anger t a Bway thc balance of justice.*1 Tho Telegraph observes that "oven b fore tho out? rage ot last night there could not bo two opinions as to thc propriety of the step winch has been ta? ken by thc Irish government of prohibiting tho Fenian processions.'' ibo pnpeis gcnorally con? cur in this view. TUE IRISH DEMONSTRATIONS. Toe Pall Mall (Eng.) Gazette, referring to thc demonstrations in ireland in reference to tuc Man? chester executions, says: If we are to take the plain ;.nd obvious significa? tion of those meetings, we cannot conclude that they were controlled by light or various feelings. On the contrary, they do soein to have- been eon trolled by one general and deep feeling-namely, that the three mea hanged at Manchester were martyrs thal in them patriotism vas put to death. Such a conviction, so manifested, is not a thing likely to expire m it day, nor to grow less feeble because it could lind no better expression than in a funeral procesi?n. Nor is it less dangerous be? cause it is false. : ho question for us is, does such a sentiment largely pervade the Irish people V If it docs-aud there eau bc no doubt of it au, we sup? pose then wo have so much inl'.amuiatory ma? terial in Btore which is not tho less forniidabio be? cause it is compressed; so is gun-cotton. More than all, it would be unsafe to confine our regards to the condition of things in Ireland alone. Tho real danger ls, in fact, not in Ireland at all, nor in thc prospect ol' any downright rebellion. Tho danger is in America, and in tue uso which can bo made of the rebellions spirit in Irolan.l to embar? rass thc whole empire, uni to plunge that unhappy country itself into worse unhappiness. SOUTHERN UNIVERSITY FOR THE UXITED STATES. Tho London Giono says: "A project is on foot for tho establishment ol a Southern University in the United States, and the assistance of English churchmen in attamin? that object has been sought by the Rev. F. YY. Tremlett, of St. Peter's, Belsizo Park. The movement is not a sectional one. It is intended as an offering to tho wholo American church, and not to the Southern States as against the Northern. Nor docs it proceed from any single party in England-both High Church and Low Church arc associate ! in it. All the arch? bishops and most ot the bishops, all the colonial, metropolitans, and many weil known leaders of church opinion approve of it, and have expressed thei . willingness to co-operate, So vera] eminent statesmen, Loth OODSCrvatiVt and liberal, have pl a? in sed to assist. Among the subscribers are Mr. Gladstoue, Mr. Gathorne Bardy, Fai l Stauhopo, tho Earl ol' Shaftesbury, and Lord John Manners, Doon the committee are tho Earl of Carnarvon, Lord Cranborno, Earl Nelsen, tin- Archbishop of York, the L??SIIM?- of Oxford. .Mr. Beresford Hope, and Mr. Gladi!ono. There certainly could he no better represe-itatioti than this ol' diff?rent sec? tions of churchmen. Tho feoling which baa led to thc movement is thu desire to draw closer th bouds of sympathy between England and tho Ignit? ed States and the English and American churchc*. The cordial reception given to tho American bish? ops who atti tided the Pan-Anglican Synod, has already produced very gratify.tig results, and ir is felt that t?j assisi in lin- os?hh. hun ;:!, ot rather j the restoration, ot thu Somborn University, would I further strengthen friendship and mutual respect.

Dispatches from Loni.- state that tko Popo had a fainting lit on Sunday. Hie bili of December, while at mass in thc ?sistine Chanel, lt is said that frequent councils of Bourbon par? tisans aro held at thc Carnoso Palace, under the presidency of thc Marquis d'UUoa. Tho correspondent of tho Poll Mall Gazette, writing from Rome on tho 6th of December, says: 'ibo evacuation of Romo by tho French is al? most completed. Yesterday General dc Failly ob? tained an audience of thc Pope to take leave, and was graciously received by tho Holy Father, who bestowed on liim his benediction and the material recompense of the grand cordon of thc Order of Pius IX. "The evacuation has rreatly mortified the French officers, who rather hoped to come into collision with tbs Italian army, and it is io be feared that all rcmcmbranco of the brotherhood of the campaign of 1859 has evaporated on both sides. Certainly the French speak as bitterly ot tho Italians aa of tho Prussians, and consider that their Emperor has acted with as much tameness I toward one as tho other. They say 'it is thc mis Ifortuno ol' France to bo govered by an Italian, who will not show fight to tho government of Florence.' . This is not a flattering commentary on the policy I of tho Tuilleries, but it is expressed openly, and bv all grades. "The Pontifical troops are to be armed with tue Spencer breech-loader, but t commission is to pro? ceed to England to examine the English arms of piec'sion.ftTlie commission, which is composed of French and Belgian letjitimatists, will include Messrs. Benoit d'Azy, De St. Priest, De Kellerand De Hcmptine." Affairs in the State. -The loss sustained bv Colonel H. L. Benbow, owing to the burning of his gin-house in Claren? don District lust week, was fourteen thousand pounds of ginned cotton, and not tour thousand, an previously reported. -C. M. McJunkin, a confectioner in Greenville, last week detected a negro hoy named Peter in t ho act of robbing bis money drawer. Several pre? vious thefts were thus explained. The store of Mr. James S. Stewart, in Winus boro', was entered by a burglar on Monday night and thoroughly ransacked. Th? Winnsboro' News adds: "Not much w.vt taken, bnt the papers in the desk were rifled and carefully examined, some left on one of the show cases, and some dropped on thc lot in the rear of the premises. 'J bree pieces of ladies' dress goods were la (eu, and there is no doubt tho thief could read hand-writing. If we had a detective from Charleston, it is almost a certainty that thc rascal who broke into Mr. Stewart's store could" bo detected." - A shocking affray occurred iu the village ot York ville, on Christmas Eve night, in which one young gentleman named Smith was instantly killed, and another named Snyder mortally wounded, by a person named L. Jones. It seems that at a ball giveu in tiie village, and which was attended by the most respectable and esteemed citizens of the placo, a difficulty occurred between Jones and Smith and Snyder! in which Smith had his throat cut from tar to ear, dying instantly, and Snyder was mortally woundod. .tones has given himself up and was lodged in jail. -On Thursday night a desperate negro, named Weat Bryce, who had been arrested for threaten? ing the life of a colorod (roman, made his escapo from the Winnsboro' jail. He broke through tho ceiling of his cell, pushed out the staple whic.i held the bolt that socurod the outer (iron) door, aud crawled over tho top of the wooden door. Being in the third story, he tore his two blankets into strips, tied them into a rope, and lot himself down, lt appears from the signs that he crawled down with the assistance of the blinda oponed up? on thu second and first story windows. From tho dopth of his footprints wherohc struck tho ground, it would seem that his final leap was a consider? able one. Affairs In Florida. -Mr. W. A.

Tho Senti? nel says : Wo beg respectfully and earnestly to appeal to tho military authorities of the State in behalf of our people in ti e counties of Craven, Jones, and Lenoir, who, MUCO the termination of the warr have- ii^oii"liuD7c^kcd-tP tho most wicked, lawless, and violent ou'ragos-rr?V?r8?3 i? cold blood, aud robberies unequalled in i ny portion of our coun? try. Citizens, quietly affmluc, oi^pnrroin- them lawful business, .ne shot down, and\thcir poisons and premises robbed by iawloss bands ,'imrmed negroes. Our white people are not ullowcdro-bo armed, but negroes uro known to bo fully anuetTp an:l in that section of the State these outragea have boen renewed in the most aggravated man? ner recently. Thc efforts of both the military and civil officers of that section have bean insufficient to suppress tho disorders. Wo lour' from reliable ; sources that general uneasiness aud larm exist in those counties. Whito persons whi are obliged to travel thu road; are now composed to go in gangs for self-defence. No white man can travel thc roads after dark without imminent hazard of his life. Quiet fa in i hes are now almost every night disturbed by these lawless bands, and tho slignt est resistance to their plundering is met with in? stant death. SCANDAL IN ENGLISH Ullin LIKE.-A case of somo interest to Americans was brought before the police magistrate at Bow-street, London, on the 10th instant. Sir Eardley Gideon Culling Eardley was committed for bigamy, in having married in New York, in 1859, Miss Emily Florence McGee, who is still living, and quite recently another lady at St. George's llanover Square. Ul. James McGee, father of thc rightful Lady Eardley, deposed that his daughter was married to thc prisoner at Calvary Chinch, in tho presence of Mr. W. Cyrus Field, Mr. Charles Mosely and other witnesses. It was proved that in New York such a marriage, or ono in a private house, or even iu the street, was legal, as it was in England in the time of Goorgo II. Sir Eardley, defended by emi? nent counsel, contended that tho mairiag? was Illegal, but the magistrate committed hi n without bail to tako his trial. Here thou, is another Yelverton case, and another <.:< litton to be iv aro of titled foreigners, or to mako sure that all tho necessary formalities have been complied with. Sir Eardley seems to have iniuginod that ho could repudiato his Now York marriage, because thoro was no ceremony before tho British Consul ; but 1 doubt if that plea will avail him. He bad himself recognized tho original Lady Eardley as his wife in articles giving ber a sep?ralo maintenance. -?-. ? . MOKE IMMIGRANTS.- During thc past week two moro parties of English and Scotch immigrants arrived in this city, under tho auspice* of tho Virginia Immigration Society. They consisted ot farm laborers, mechanics, and domestics. Homes wore provided for them in advance bv the officers of the society. Moro aro expected td arrive in a few days.-Lynchburg ( Va.) Republican. PrtEFARiNO ron EMANCIPATION IN CUBA.-Alate London paper says that the public authorities in the Island ol' Cuba are at present engaged in obtaining a register of slaves, as a preliminary to the fixing of tho indemnity to be paid to their owners when emancipation shall be declared. AU slaves not registered within a giveu time will be regarded as and declared to bo free. I YPE-Sr.niNo MACHINES.-Tho Hartford Courier reporta that thc Now lork Tunes has giveu an order for a considerable number of Aide's type? setting machines, to bu used in the composition of that i J a per, a id that the Tribune contemplates doing the same thing, other papers will follow if the machinen provo a success; and a complete revolution mil bo wrought in newspaper printing, for these machines, it is claimed, will do good work vastly cheaper than it can be done bv band. Napoleon III. ia carefully bringing up his Bon Victor to the ideas and practice of command and government The little fellow is already in com? mand ol a regiment; he is accustomed to hear and even reply to addresses, and in n variety of wacs plays the grand role of state with a wonderful self possession and propriety. Latest accounts from Pans tell how ho is taught the mode ol attacking and defending tortitied places. Batteries are erected, bastions cannonaded, tronchos opened, earthworks thrown up, and all the. obsidional strategy of war represented In a manner suitable to his intelligence. They arc literally teaching bis young idea how to shoot. Such training will give tho '.mc a great idea of his power and ai; i lits rc sponsibility; and the gravity of that boyish face is only in keeping with tho terrible task which hie seems to have laid out for him. His lather's great teaching will no doubt be thc way of holding power with a stern, unfaltering gripe of repression. The physicians of Meridian, I\Ii->., have made an agreement "not to render profess ona] services to parties who refuse to pay or make satisfactory arrangement for tho payment of du s."
