LORD STANLEY ON IRELAND-DEATH OF A FENIAN
PRISONER, ETC.
LONDON, January 25.-At a miriisterial dinner
given at Bristol last evening, Lord Stanley,
who was present, made a very significant
speech. Beferring to Ireland, he said that the
island had never been in a more prosperous
condition, nor had she ever been more disaf?
fected. The latter he attributed mainly to the
designs of American soldiers, . He thought the
proposed church reforms ought to go over to
the next Parliament, and as to land reforms in
Ireland, they were out of tho question.
Duffy, the Fenian, who was arrested at Dub?
lin and sent to Millbank pn s on, died there to?
day.'
The tone of the French press, as well as that
of Prussia, is ominen t ly peaceful.
The Chinese Government has taken military
steps on the Russian frontier which the latter
government regards as warlike and offensive,
A protest is to be sent forward.
'" The' lower house of tho Danish Parliament

, PRINCE NAPOLEON'S PAMPHLET. i
PARIS, January 25.-It is reported, to-day on
good authority that the Emperor has forbidden
the publication of Prince Napoleon's pamphlet
on the subject of the foreign and domestic
affairs of France. The appearance of the work
has been looked forward to. with, great in
' terest, and there is consequently much popu- \
lax disappointment at the unexpected decision
of the Emperor. ?"?
THE NEW FRENCH ARMY UTT.T..
ST. PETERSBURG, January 24.-The Boersen
Zeitung,, published here, calls attention edi?
torially to the fact that the new French army
bill materially increases the power, of Louis
Napoleon, and is sore to prompt bim .to
assume higher status and bolder tone, in re?
gard to European politics.
THE PEACE OF EUROPE-NEW FRENCH LOAN.
PARTS, January 24.-The semi-official La
Patrie, in an editorial article, observes.that
Russia is the only power not now in harmony
with all the rest of Europe. Efforts of this
kind to tranquilize the public mind and give an
assurance of. prolonged peace, are singularly
antagonised by the fact that every power in..
Europe is actually engaged in arming-itself as j
if for anticipated war.
~ It is said a new French loan to the amount
of $750,000,000 will surely be put npnn tho axmr.

WASHINGTON, J 'January 22.-'Jue question
>f veracity that has boen raised, between
'resident Johnson ana- General Grant in
ertain journals, compels your correspon
lent to make known th?'ft>IIuwin(j r?"fa which
on firm his original statement o the World,
uu willan not only the Presiden; himself, but
JUT cf the-moat prominent m.'robers of his
labine t, will positively vouch for :
Just after the formal meeting of the Cabinet
n January 17, the" article from the National
ntoUigencer of th e.15 th was read in presence
f the President, and tho before-mentioned'
members ' of the Cabinet. * Tl.a -statements.
aade in that article, which, were substantially
hose telegraphed after an intel view with Mr.
ohnson by the correspondent of the World,
rere agreed to by the President and all the
lecretaries present; ^but thc objection was
uade that they fell short Of what actually oc
inrred during the meeting of the Cabinet on
Meeday, the 14th ins I an t. Th < i first Secretary
ir member of the Cabinet present at the meet
ng on January 17th, referred to," observed
hat "General.Grant acknowledged that he
General.Grant) had promised either to retain
he office'or to tender his r?siliation in time
o enable the President to abpolnt a successor.
Ie (General. Grant) said tua opinion at the
une was thai? the 'ina* must ab.v m until the
outs' could get in by due cours e of law."
(1 make a full record of what occurred here
tn Tuesday.;
The second Secretary said: "The Secretary's
ecord, then, agrees with this r ewspapei state
nent excepting that it is moro full."
Whereupon the first Secreta)y said: "Yes, it
rives a much more tdetailed account of what
?curred here. Speaking'of his withdrawal
rom the War Department, Gnut said that he
wited one door of the Secreta:-y's office on the
aside, looked the other, and delivered the key
o the Adjutant-General. Ho did not profess
o know what transpired afterwards.''
The second Secretary added : "It is not at all
inrprising that he (Grant) did not recollect.
3e was evidently too much cor fused to remem?
ber much."
Then the third Secretary remarked: "He
Grant) said that the discussion in the papers
iad caused him to lookover the law, and he
lad found trouble in the second and first sec
ions. He (Grant) remarked that he did not
vish to be subjected to imprisonment and fine;
?hen the President replied: "Why, I told you,
Jener al, that I would take all ?he imprisonment
ind t>ay all the fines that might be imposed
?ponyou.'"
The first Secretary continued: "He"
meaning Grant) "admitted all, and made a
itammering excuse that had in it no intelligi
?lity. He admitted that when the im.erriew
lerminated Saturday, he was to have seen the
President on Monday upon t ie subject."
The second Secretary now observed: " He "
[Grant) "admitted that if he changed bis
riewB the President was to ba notified in sea
ion to enable the President to put tho office
n. the same position as it was when he
[Grant) was appointed Secre tary ad interim."
The thud Secretary then proceeded to say:
"Tho President said to General Grant: 'I ex?
pected to seel you Monday. Why did you not
:all:' Grant replied that he was too much
xscupied by General Sherman and hy many
ittle matters.' "
The second Secretary amended as follows:
'I think he was engaged in the preparations
lecessary to an abdication of the War Office."
The fourth member of the Cabinet present
leclared: "And the fact .was developed that
jeneral Sherman was here on Monday."
The President now pertinently said: "On
Saturday, when he (Grant) referred to the ten
lre-of-office act, I told him that I woa d take
di the imprisonment and pay all the lime that
night be imposed upon him under its pro vis?
cus. When he arose to leave the room, I re?
seated the remark, for I wanted to know
whether or not he intended to bold on to the
office, designing to relieve him if it was his
purpose to yield it.".
Tue fourth member of the Cabinet went on
to say to the President : "On Tuesday you told
him that was the object of your conversation
with him on Saturday."
The second Secretary spoke : "He (referring
to Grant) did what I expeoted he would do."
The fourth Cabinet member continued after
the Secretary : "I did not suppose aman oc?
cupying his position would so prevaricate.**
[Your correspondent deems it best to omit
the sta jnger terms employed by the speaker to
denote his evident disgust at what he conceiv?
ed to be tho bad faith of General Grant.]
The third Secretary Baid: "My idea is that
he supposed the Senate ? onld act on Saturday,
and he intended to carr- over the President
until Monday. The Semite not having acted
then, he did not come tc see the Precedent on
Monday, not wishing tD see him until the
whole thing had been consummated.
The President finished the con vernation as
follows: "I desired to know what he (General
Grant) would do, and did not think that he
could have so misunderstood the agreement."
Your correspondent having communicated,
not morely in substance, but literally, the dia?
logue upon this subj ec; which took place at
the White House on Friday last between the
Chief Executive and his Cabinet advisers, has
merely to observe, in conclusion, that the sig?
natures of all who rendered the testimony
would doubtless be affixed to it, if it should be
officially denied. J. B. 8.
THE CONVENTION,
CONVENTION HELD BT AUTHORITY OF THE
RECONSTRUCTION LAWS OP CONGRESS,
TO FRAME A STATE CONSTITUTION
. FOR SOUTH CAROLINA.
Another week baa closed on the labors of the
convention, and yet no step haa been taken
forward. Practically, as far as the people are
concerned, nothing has been done. There has
been an election of officers; committees haye
been, appointed; a great number of resolutions
fired off and lodged therein; the members have
bombarded each other with every species of
missiles, from bird shot to a fifteen inch shell;
and yet, looking at resulta, the proceedings of |
Saturday have a greater bearing on public in?
terests than everything else said or done. The
convention passed two resolutions, both thro w
l ing the responsibility of action upon General'
Danby. One of these is a homestead law, pros?
pective iii purpose, and the forerunner of what
is to be; the other is a stay law, suspending
for three months the sale of property under
execution-this limit being set for the pur?
pose of enabling the convention to consider
the subject further.
The real work of the body will doubtless
commence to-day, when the Finance Commit?
tee will make a report, which, it is understood*
will recommend the convention to pledge the
State for the redemption of the bills receivable
issued by authority of an act of the General
Assembly in December, 1865, and endorsing
all the obligations ol.the State contracted
prior to the war. It is believed that this re?
commendation will be adopted. If so, the
effect upon the State currency, as well as upon
the bonds, will be to cause an appreciation of j
value which will relieve a very considerable
class of tho community who now hold these
securities, and likewise relieve the State itself j
from mnoh of its financial embarrassment.
Capital may bo directed hither, and South
Carolina bonds, aa in days gone by, be again
sought as safe and.remunerative!objects of in?
vestment.
PROCEEDINGS OP THE CONVENTION.
. .. HZKTH DAT.
The convention assembled at, 12 o'clock: The
roll was caUedlandjaumd read.
The Presiden" t laid before the body a com?
munication from Major D. T. Corbin, accepting
the office o:,' Solicitor of the convention in con
junction with Major C. D. Melton.
A COLO KED UnnOR WANTED.
The President also stated that on Monday
he would be compelled to attend the United
States District Court, in connection with the
interests of the United States, and accordingly
would request Mr. Lomuel Boozer- (white), to
occupy the chair during his absence.
L. S. Langley (colored), said he preferred
the convention would elect its own Chairman.
R. C. DeLarge moved that Mr. Boozer be
3lected President pro Um.
h. 8. Langley nominated F. LYCardozaJcol,
ored). Cardoza declined in favor of W. J.
Whipper (colored), and Whipper'declined ?n
favor of L. Boozer. A voioe nominated "Lang
ley," but this indefatigable hairsplitter and
stickler for points of order, blushingly refused
the threatened honor.. . , ........
Mr. Boozer was, therefore, elected, and will
probably preside to-day.
Laue lev is evidently not-- ooH?a?A ***^*."*ve,ry
rffice in trie gifiortne convention, with the
ix?eption of two, has been bestowed upon por?
tons of his own race, and, like Oliver Twist,
iries out for-"more."
A MUNTEE ELECTED.
B, C. DeLarge .Fromthe Committee on Print
ng laid before the convention two bids for tho
rork of the body. One from H. Judge Moore;
he other from McMillan & Jo witt.
Considerable "small talk" followed as to the ?
ilaimB of the respective parties upon the favor ]
if the convention. \
B. F. Randolph favored the party first named,
ind moved that he be elected.
C. C. Bowen thought it was in exceedingly ?
>ad taste for such a man to make such a mo- c
ion, it being a well known fact that the dele- t
rate was connected with the printing office of
i. Judge Moore, and would in all probability
lerive no inconsiderable benefit from the con
ract. Bowen further stated that it could be
>roven beyond doubt that H. Judge Moore had I jj
nade certain combinations wita other printers,
vhich had prevented other bids, and wonld
ittempt to do the work himself. In other I {
fords, the contract was to be sub-let.
Randolph denied the soft impeachment. It
was true that be was connected with the edi?
torial department of a newspaper published by
9. Judge Moore, but had nothing whatever to h
lo with the department in which this work was
? be done.
J. H. Allen (white), of Greenville, suggested | *
?hat the convention was an illustration of the
lld adage-"saving at the spile and losing at
;he bung-hole." The question seemed to be
iow to Bare $200, and the time consumed in I ?
lisoussing-it was $500 lost. He said there waa
too much wind work in the body "anyhow, and .
lie was getting "Borter" tired of it. j
The previous question was, ordered-a favor- i
te method by. the way of checking debate-and
the main question being on the motion to elect ;
EL Jndge Moore printer of the convention, it
s/as decided in the affirmative.
A HOMESTEAD LAW.
J. J. Wright (colored),fe Beaufort, offered
the following resolution :
Resolved, That this convention respectfully
request that Brevet Mojor-Oeneral E. R. 8.
Danby, Commanding Second Military District,
.mmediately issue an order exempting from
levy and sale i'or the period of four months, one
iiundred acres of land which are now, or prior
JO the expiration of four months, may be under
jxeoution.
A. J. Ransier moved to refer it to the Com?
mittee on the Legislativo part of the Constitu?
tion, and E. Vf. M. Mackey moved as an amend?
ment that the committee be instructed to re?
port on Monday morning.
L. S. Langley favored its immediate con?
sid?ration.
R. H. Cain (colored), of Charleston, also fa?
vored the resolution and pressed its adoption.
He alluded to the good advice given to "Daddy
Cain" in THE NEWS Pf thajnorning, and pro?
ceeded to defend himself from the imputation
that any man could go farther in favoring!
measures of relief for all classes of the people,
[f a stay law was not passed he would probably
lose five or seven thousand dollars. In oppos-,
ing such a law, therefore, he was certainly not
animated by personal interest, but the home?
stead law was a question around which no
doubt was gathered. The poor men of this as
weE as of other States demanded it ; and as?
sembled aa the convention was, to provide for!
the welfare of all people, irrespective of race or
color, he felt assured the resolution would
meet with the unqualified support of the dele?
gates. This was one of the few measures with
which the convention had to deal, and he.
hoped they would deal promptly and well, and
then go home. Having an empty treasury to
start with in her new career, the State should
not be compelled to carry a burden of expense,
greater than was necessary, by her people "in
convention assembled," and, therefore, wished
their labors to be brought to a speedy close.
The previous question was moved by F. J.
Moses, Jr., and ordered.
J. J. Wright having offered the resolu?
tion was entitled to the floor for one hour, but
spoke briefly in defence of the measure.
The question was then taken on the amend?
ment, and afterwards the motion, and was de?
cided in the negative.
The question then recurred on the adoption
of the resolution, and it was decided in the af?
firmative.
THE SPECIAL OH DEB.
The resolution which has been under discus?
sion for two or three days, requesting General
Canby to suspend for three months all sales of
property under execution, on all debts up to
the Issue of his order, was taken from the table,
and on motion of F. J. Moses, Jr., tho previous
question was ordered. Mr. Moses being enti?
tled to the floor for one hour, occupied that
time in making an elaborate speech in defence
of his measure.
He reviewed the condition of the?taje. de?
scribed the prevailing distress, considered the
causes which led to that distress, demonstra?
ted that they were beyond the control of the
?ieople. and foreshadowed the terrible misfor
unes that would accrue to the entire commu
ni ty from the sudden and reckless breaking of
their interests.
The speeoh was well and eloquently made
and only a pressure upon our columns prevents
the publication of a lengthy synopsis.
The hour having expired, the question was
taken by ayes and noes cm the adoption of the
resolution, and the vote stands as follows :
Teas-The President and Messrs. Ill en,

. Total ayes 57; noes 52.
A curious feature of the above vote that of
the ayes thirty-five are whites and twenty-two
are colored; of the nays twelve are white, forty
are colored. This being a test vote on a very
important question, the spirit of the conven?
tion is fairly illus tra ted by. its publication. '
R. 0. DoLargo made a motion that tho ques?
tion be reconsidered and that the motion to re?
consider be laid upon the table.
The chair explained that the effect of this
motion would be to put the question forever
beyond the further consid?ration of the con?
vention.
It was decided in the affirmative.
50 EKPtTDIATION OB CONFISCATION
B. P. Whittemore (white), of Darlington, of
ferred the ' following resolution, which was
agreed to: l
Resolved, While the members of this conven?
tion will not favor any scheme for the repudia?
tion of debts, the relation of the obligation of
contracts, or the taking of lands from the bands
of the lawful owners of the same .without reason-1
able compensation, yet we are willing to fur?
ther any measure of relief consistent with tho
powers delegated to us by the Reconstruction
acts of Congress.
The convention then adjourned.

TEE " WHITE BILL " 70S TEE DlarniCT OE
COLUMBIA.
The President on Thursday last sent to tho
Senate the following communication:
To the Senate of the United states: I have
received the following preamble and r?solu*
tion, adopted by the Senate ort the 8th in?
stant: - .
"Whereas Senate bill numbered one hun*
ired and forty-one, and entitled 'An act for th<
further security of equal rights in the Distrtoi
of Columbia,' having, at this present session;
passed both houses of Congress, was after?
wards, on the eleventh day of December,
tighten hundred and sixty-seven, duly pre?
sooted to the President of the United States
Tor bis approval and signature; and, whereas;
nore than ten days, exclusivo of Sundays, have
rtnoe elapsed in this session without said bill
ia vin g been returned, either approved or dis
?ppr o ved; therefore . . :
"Resolved, That the President of the United
States be requested to inform the Senate
vhetber said bill has been delivered to and re
wivgd _bjjjhe Secretary of State, asjgyvided
leventh day of July, seventeen n?ndrwTT??
>ighty-nine."
As the act which the resolution mentions
ias no relevancy to the subject under inquiry,
t is presumed that it was the intention of the
Senate to refer to the law of the 15th Septem
)er, 1789, the second section of which pre-!
?tibes- . . !
"That whenever a bilLorder, resolution or
^oie of the Senate and House of Eepresen t a- .
ives, having been approved and signed by the ,
President of the United States, or not having

vi th thereafter be received by the enid Secre

in being reconsidered, be agreed to be passed, ?
.nd be approved by two-thirds of both houses
if Congress, and thereby become a law or take ,

ito or the Speaker of the House of Representa- '

Inasmuch as the bill "for further security:
if equal rights in the District of Columbia" has
tot become a law in either of the nodes desig
lated in the section abovo quoted, it has not
leen delivered to the Secretary of State for rec-,
ird. and promulgation. The constitution ex- j
iressly declares that, "if any bill ihall not be <
eturned by the President within tei days (Sun- I
lays excepted) after it shall have teen present- i
id to him, the same shall be a law n like man-, i
?er as if he had signed it, unless Congress, bv
heir adjournment, prevent its return, in which,
laso it shall not be a law." As stated in the ,
preamble to tbe resolution, the bill to which it'
.efors was presented for my approval on the
Ll th of December, 1867. On tho 20 th of samo
nonth, and before the expiration of the ten days1
if tor the presentation or the bill tc the Presc?
ient, the two houses, in accordance with a con
jurrent resolution adopted on the 3d Decem?
ber, adjourned until the 6th of Jaruary, 1868.
Oongress, by their adjournment, this prevent?
ed the return of the bill within thc time pre?
scribed by the constitution, and it iras there
lore left in the precise condition in which that
instrument positively declares a bili "shall not
be a law."
If the adjournment in December did not cause
the failure of this bill because not inch an ad?
journment as is contemplated by tbs constitu?
tion in tho clause which I have cited, it must
follow that such was the nature cf the ad?
journments during the past year, on the 30th
day of March until the first Wednesday of
July, and from the 20th of July until the 2l8t
of November. Other bills will therefore be af?
fected by the decision which may be rendered
in this case among them' one having the same
title as that named in tbe resolution, and con?
taining similar provisions, which, passed by
both homes in the month of July last, failed to
becomo a law by reason of the adjournment of
Congress before ten days for its consideration
had been allowed the Executive.
ANDREW JOHNSON.
WASHINGTON, January 23,1868.
A shocking murder by negroes is reported
?rom Effingham County, Georgia, lt appears
that on the 24th of last month, a vhite man,
Bnttrely unknown and supposed tobe a foreign?
er, went to the cabin of a negro, near the Au?
gusta road, seventeen miles from the city,
drew oat the staple which held the padlock,
und entered the place wad stole a half peck of
ground peas. He was caught by the owner of
the cabin, who, in company with three others,
Btripped the man, then tied him to a tree, and
with a whip gave him seventy-five lashes upon
his bare back, and then turned the Buffering
victim loose. But not yet had he escaped
from their vengeance. The life ol the man
alone could compensate for thc attempt
to steal a few ground peas from them.
Nothing waa said about the matter until Wed?
nesday last, when some negroes, who wer e
prowling about a swamp, suddenly had reveal?
ed to their gase a sickening and fearful sight.
Thero in the swamp, np to that fcme hidden
from mortal sight, lay the body of a white
man-or rather the remains ofthe body. For
terrible as had beon the fate of the poor un?
fortunate, the condition of the body was still
more awful. The buzzard and tko oarrion
crow had discovered it, and satiated their ap?
petites upon the poor murdered remains. The
flesh upon the head and part of tho body was
eaten away. The negroes gathered up what
was left of the body and carried it out of the
swamp, and gave notioe of their discovery, and
a coroner's jury was called to investigate the
matter. There were two bullet woonda in the
head-one in the back part, the other m the
side. When the negroes lifted the body up,
the bullet in the back part of the head dropped
out. The body was found about a mile hom
where the whipping occured. There was lust
enough ofthe flesh of the back still attached
to the extremities o? the body for the marks to
be seen that led to the belief that the remains
were those of the man who had been whipped.
A negro was arrested on suspicion of haring
been concerned in the matter, and lodged in
jail in Springfield.
FOREIGN MISCELLANY.
_ i
-Charles Dickens. Jr., is stroke oar of the
Thames Bowing Club.
-Napoleon recently got up a serenade for
himself with a band consisting of four hun?
dred drummers and sixteen hundred mu?
sicians.
-Work on the Cologne Cathedral, suspend?
ed three centuries ago, will be resumed nert
?pring.
-A lamplighter in Liverpool recently be*
came heir to $100,000, and the excitement ofit
threw him into a brain fever.
-Russia educates its ballet dancers arid
then forbids theil' departure from the country
without the permission of the Czar.
-It is so general a custom in.France to ex?
change photographs at New Tear's, that more
than three millions of them went through the
Paris postoffice during the first week of 1868.
-A Parisian actress recently appeared at the
Porte St; Martin Theatre robed in a halo of
electric light, and so little else that, even the
Frenchmen bossed her.
-The Duke de Cbevreuso has given twelve
pieces of cannon to the Pope. Borne will, by
and-by, be merely a military station, as it loses
citizens and gains soldiers and material of war
every day.
_in the Buss ian town of Kasan, a new the?
atre has been erected. In giving a license the
Governor provides "that on one night each
week the performance shall he of such a char?
acter that mothers may carry their daughters."
3 -M. Indennercch, the executioner of Paris,
has. improved the guillotine and ita manage?
ment to such an extent that he can cut off a
man's head in six seconds from the time he
reaches the scaffold, if the victim is only ac?
commodating. He is rich, but follows hu pro?
fession from philanthropic motives.
-The British Viceroy of India has lately
held a grand celebration at Lucknow. The
princes of Victoria's great Oriental Empire
of 200,000,000 people passed in gorgeous pro?
cession before the Viceroy. Four hundred
richly caparisoned elephants also formed- part
of the grand array. The show is known as
the "Durbar."
-The French Emperor has now at his dis?
posal in timo or peace a fighting army of about
BOO, 000 trained soldiers, supported ty ? r?serve
of 600,000 men who have gone through at least
the first rudiments of drill; and, with such a
subservient legislative chamber as the present,
the Emperor will have little difficulty in calling
up a contingent of 110,009 dr 160, instead of
the usual number bf 100,000, should war break
out.' .' .......
-The King of Prussia bas congratulated the
Pope on his happy. deliverance from the Gari
baldian invasion, and has declared, in an auto;
graph letter, t nat he WOT never lend himself to
any international arrangement that should
sanction the destruction or even weakening of
the temporal power of the Holy1 See; and for
the reason' that its maintenance appears to him
indispensable to the free exeicise of the
spiritual s o vere ig nty of the head of the church,
and to the religious fib or tv of Prussian
Catholics. -
. -France is to have in the springy maritime
exhibition at Havre, and it is proposed at
Washington to appoint a commission of naval
officers to attendit. It is to be boped that the
shipbuilders, engine works, rope walka, sail
lofts, anchor shops, and other departments of
o jr nautical industry will be represented.
-Professor Scccbi, an eminent' astronomer
i? Borne, ?nd formerly Director of the Obser?
vatory, of Georgetown, D. C., announcet,. as
the result of recent careful experimenta In an
Alpine glacier, that the true color of fresh
water is a bine mixed with violet, which growa
darker as the thickness traversed' by the light
increases. _ ;
-Napoleon always endeavors to comte o in
rial. Un Now Year's day he gavo the boy a
miniature railway, with engine and cars, the
track, five hundred yards long, being laid on
the terrace, running along the reserved, gar?
dens of the Toileries. An engineer ie in s.tten?
dance to oxp Jain the engine and ron special
trains for the Prince's accommodation.
-"Miss Burdett Coutts' charities are always
well directed. Her latest effort for the relief
of tho tenants of her model lodging-houses in'
London enables them to obtain the franchise
to which they are entitled by the re fon n bill.
She undertakes to pay their rates for them'
without increasing their rents, and. aa a mark;
ot gratitude, tbe householders thus trans-1
formed into voters illuminated their dwnllings
on the night of the 4th instant. The London
9tar regrets that there is but one Miss Coutts, ;
and adds this sharp touch: "Destitute crea?
tures in the east of London, who can hardly
keep body and soul together, are summoned
for poor rates, and they appear bemire the:
sourt gn'.t~ ag the crust? with which the chari?
ty of tho public has provided them."
Affairs In the State.
-The prisoners confined in Marion, Si C.,
?ail, mi.de an attempt to escape about ten
o'clock Friday forenoon. The officer in i marge,,
in order to subdue them, was forced to nre
on the crowd, three of whom wore wounded,
one supposed mortally.
-The house on the south side of Beedy
River, owned by our cotemporory, J. C. Bailey,,
of the Greenville Enterprise, and occupied by
a freedman and family, was, on yesterday after?
noon, dleatroyed by fire.
-Tho valuable mill owned by Mr. D. Gunter,
on Mountain Creek, six miles north of Green?
ville town, was, on Sunday week, between! the;
hours of 10 A. M. and 12 M., entirely destroyed
by fire. The perpetrator of this daring incen?
diarism is said to be a negro boy not more than
ton years of age, who, however, was most
likelv acting under the influence of older per?
sons] whom, we understand, Mr. Gunter nad
notified to move from his premises.
-The Clarendon Banner Bays : On last Fri?
day night, tho gin bouse of Captain J. H.
McKnight, containing his orop of cotton for
1867, was destroyed by fire. The cause of the!
fire is attributed to the agency of one or more
of the fiends whoso incendiary fires have so
frequently of late lit up the darkness of night
in our District. Again, on last Monday night,
about 2 o'clock, the largo and handsome store
of Messrs. Ingraham & Oliver, with the post
office and rcvoDue office and revenue office RH
tached, were ontirely destroyed. The building
destroyed, was the neatest and most commo?
dious of its kind in the village, and contained
a considerable stock of fine and fancy dry
goods, iu addition to a large stock of glass and
crockeryware, boots and shoes. The postoffice
and United States revenue office which were
attached to the store, were also consumed]
No property of any value, besides the books of
the firm, a few groceries and several bales of
cotton, were saved from the store, but the
larger part- of the contents of the post and
revenue offices were rescued.
-The Darlington Southerner says : On Sun
day morning last, Mr. White agent of the Che
raw and Darlington Bailroad Company, dis?
covered thal an attempt had been made to tir?
the depot. Lightwood bad been ignited and
inserted under the door to the main building ;
fortunately the names exhausted themselven
without firing the building. He applied tc
Colonel Maneydier commanding, for a guard,
which was promptly furnished. On Tuesday
night, about ono o'clock ?. M. five persone,
supposed to be negroes, were seen approaoh -
ing tho building ; they were challenged, br. t
instead of responding took to flight ; they wei a
pursued for a considerable distance and seven il
shots were fired at them by the guard. Favor?
ed by the darkness, they succeeded in escap?
ing.
A TBAJN OTP THE TEAOK.-Tho Bevolution. a
new woman's rights paper, contains this we ik
a cable dispatch from George Francis Train,
sent especially io the Bevolution. Here it is
it does not appear to convey much informa?
tion :
"British Jail, Monday, 12 M.-My first pan

Kuczkoweki-Ireland for the Irish-Amern ian
citizens' rights in Europe-Alabama or wa r
galvanize Johnson and Seward-are they Anviri
cans ?-Adams a British toady.
"GEOBGE FRANCIS TBAIN."
Also, the Bevolution gives a report of Train's
"last words"-not before execution, but before
the steamer bore him off to Ireland, in wi dcb
he made various characteristic threats aga inst
Lord Derby, which no doubt so frightened
that gentleman that be ordered the dreadful
Train to be stopped.
