It re? quires all hotels, restaurants, railroads, thea? tres, churches, concert halls, academies, com? mon schools, colleges, ?fcc, to treat all alike, a&d imposes penalties, punishable on convic? tion ia a United States Court, for any refusal of any prlvlUejje, to any one on accounT of he or she being of African descent. The bill ls so sweeping that it prohibits cemeteries even from being devc*od to the sepulture exclusive? ly of white people or ol colored people. This latter provision In regard to cemeteries meets the approval of Garret Davis, who says that he is willlog to allow the whole race to occupy them without delay. The bill was referred to the Judiciary Committee, from which its author, hoped it would soon qe reported and pof oed into a law.' -Full details 3fthe public execution in Ha? vana, on toe 4th Instant, by means of the gar? rote, of General Golcuria, the distinguished Cuban leader, shows that he walked to the I scaffold manfully and died bravely for the I country he loved BO well. Immediately upon bis arrival at Havana, his captors, with savage joy depicted on their faces, hurried him at once to the public prison, where a drumhead court-martial soon alter assembled, and with "double-quick'' proceedings sentenced him to be garroted at 8 o'clock the following morning. A few minutes before that hour he was taken from the chapel, where he had been confined during the night, and escoried under a heavy guard to the Castillo del Principe, where the garrote platform had been erected. A priest was allowed to accompany him to thc scaffold. Goldina's step was firm, and Iiis countenance expressed neither fear nor-remorse. Looking for a mo? ment at thc chair, ho calmly turned around and held out his hands to the executioner to bc tied. Thc iron ring was fastened around hts neck, the executioner gave a turn of the wrench, the head fell on one side, and Goicu ria was no more. He was given no opportuni? ties to make an ante-mortem address, but still managed to shout "Viva Cuba !" the beating of drums preventing anything else he said from being heard. The old general leaves a wife, daughter and son. The wife and daughter are in Brazil, the daughter having married a Bra i zllian count. CITIZENS OF CHARLESTON ! the lime of in? action and. sluggishness is past. Now must we strike for Reform, or through weary years be the bumble bondsmentrf Dishonesty and Vice. There has been, and is, too much despon? dency and despair in the hearts of the peo? ple. We hold our destiny in our own hands. We can win, if we will. And if this people will not, for honor and for fame, for political liberty and for personal security, for purity on the bench and for honesty in public office, unite in a mighty movement for Retrench? ment and Reform, then is there no longer blood in the vein3, or marrow in the bones, of the free men of South Carolina. To-night, in Mass Meeting, the Reformers will make their onslaught upon Corruption and Fraud. And the tidings of the attack, and its issue, will go forth with lightning speed to every town and hantlet in the land. The State is looking to Charleston to open fire upon the enemies of good government. We must put behind ns the memory of gloom and depression. We must remember the motto of our people, and live on in hope, however dark the sky. We must stand to our guns unflinchingly and never give up the ship while rests a shot in the locker. Citizens of Charleston ! Your presence is demanded at the Reform Mass Meeting to? night. IQ the name of right and truth, in the name of justice and equality, in the name of shattered Charleston, in the name of a ruined State, we exhort you to muster your peaceful legions, and throng the Hibernian Hall this night. s The enemy trembles and is afraid. Already the wise ones abandon the sinking craft. One united effort here io Charleston, one plain expression of the fixed resolve of the people, and the whole State will take up the refrain and chant in sonorous tones the ma? jestic hymn of Unity and Peace. Victor}* is ours if we work and plan aright And our first coign of vantage is the gath? ering of tho People to-night. Cheating the People oat of their Schools. The utter faithlessness of the Scott party to the men who raised them to the high places they now disgrace, ls shown in every circumstance of their official career. Not satisfied with speculating in State bonds and railroad stocks, which enable the Ring to dress in purple and bathe in Samian wine; ' not content with piling loan on loan, and debt on debt, until the liability of the State to the public creditor is doubled in twelve months; not satisfied with. causing South Carolina to be branded by The Nation as the place in which "politics have reached the "lowest pitch c%legradation," these traitors go further still and aim a deadly blow at the very laborers and workingmen whom they most profess to love. They have driven capital from our shores, they have made business progress tediously slow, They have taken the hammer from the hands of the mechanic and the hoe from the grasp of the laborer And, woree than all, they neglect the most solemn duties imposed on them by the law-they do nothing fir the education of the people. More thau two years ago the Reconstruc? tion Convention ordained thal the Geuorai Assembly should provide, by suitable laws, for the appropriation of tiie Citadel and grounds for educational purposes. But the Citadel is still occupied by the United States troops, and the children of the working? man are without the collegiate education which was ordered to be prepared for them. And if the General Assembly, at the dicta? tion of Scott aad his menials, has failed to perform the plain letter of ita duty, the same must be said of the Ce au ty School Com? missioners. Senator Cain, the editor of the Missionary Record, who two weeks ago denounced the corruption and frauds of the Land Commission and the county offi? cers, now demands, and with reason, a more rigid enforcement of the school laws of tie Stale. This colored senator, a man whose Radicalism is unquestioned, says that the fact is established that "there are not "schools in oue out of every dozen districts "within a county, outside the cities." Further he says : "In St. Paul's, in St. Andrew'3, and all along "the Savannah Railroad, there arc not four "schools from Charleston to Pocotaligo. In "Christ Church, St. Thomas, St. Michael's, St. "Denis, St. John's Berkeley, St. Stepiten's and other points, there are not more "than six schools if that many. Up the Santec "there ls none, and everywhere complaints "are rifo of the parable neglect of the oflicers "to establish schools for the children.1*" All over tho State it is the same story. The whole receipts from the capitation tax, and fifty thousand dollars besides, were ap? propriated to educational purposes. This largo sum of money has, we suppose, benn spent, and where are thc new schools, where are the new scholars, where is the fulfilment of the pledge? of the Scott Ring that they would educate the people ? The truth of it is, and men of all parties know it, we need Reform in the Executive Mansion, Reform iu Finance, Reform in thc Legislature, and such a Reform in the school system that there shall he a teacher | and a school wherever enough children can be found to fill it. This is a part of the work of Reform, and well may Senator Cain warn the culpable commissioners that "if "they longer neglect the duties devolved "upon them by law, then the people will, in "the next erection, select some one who has "the interests of the people more at heart "than those who are now receiving compen? sation for neglecting the education of the "youth of the State." And the first step in the right road i3 this : Let every man who hos a child to educate attend, without fail, the Reform Mass Meetiug at the Hibernian Hall to-night. THc Republicans and Reform. With the honest Republicans among us those to whom their party i3 the result of political sympathies or convictions, and not a mere cloak for every scheme of public plunder-no man in South Carolina need any longer have any cause of quarrel. All the ends for which the party has so long been striving have, in this State at least, become accomplished facts, and, right or wrong, the principle of the Equal Rights of All Men, which is the cardinal maxim in theRepublican creed, here has full and undisputed sway.1 Now, then, is the time when, for the sake of the party itself, all respectable Republicans, white and colored, should unite in the effort to purge t he State Government of the shame? less corruption which is their disgrace in the eyes of the whole country. Now should they stand shoulder to shoulder with those from whom they have honestly differed in the past, to secure for our tax-burdened peo? ple the RETRENCHMENT and REFORM which every good citizen, of whatever party, so earnestly desires. And, iu answer to the charge sb persistently made by the hireling trumpeter of Governor Scott, (which is sup? ported from week to week out of the money robbed from the people, and the very exis? tence of which depends upon the continu? ance of the opportunity for public pecula? tion and official fraud,) that the REFORM movement is a Democratic movement in dis? guise, we will only quote the following edi? torial, from THE NATION, the acknowledged leader in ability, consistency and philosophic thought of the Radical press of the country: (From The Nation, tor May 12.] "The 'Reform Party' in South Carolina, of "the establishment of which we spoke some "weeks since, seems to bc well under way and "to bo increasing in size and spirit with grati "fylng rapidity, though we fear there is but "little chance of its carrying the elections; "iAe State seems to lie almost completely at the "mercy of the white and black corruplionists "to/io have been plundering it. for some years "pas/; and that thc negro voters ar? not yet "educated to their responsibilities is. clear "enough to everybody; and if not, lt soon will "bc, for Mr. B. F. Whittemore ts to be sent "back to Congress, we sec. Apparently, noth? ing could be worse tbaD the conduct of the "high officials of the State. It ls, for instance, "constantly asserted, and is nowhere- denied, '?that a senator, Leslie by name, who held thc "office of Land Commissioner, and spent alto? gether some $600,000 of the State's money, "and then resigned without satisfactorily ac "counting for much of it, opeply declared that "if thc Advisory Board tried to.make him ac? count for it, he would have the chairman of "that body 'in his own penitentiary in less " 'than two weeks.' The Advisory Board con? sists of the Governor, the Attorney-General, "the Secretary of State, the State Treasurer, "and the Comptroller-General. More than "this, when Leslie 'resigned,' and lhere was "talk in the Senate of compelling him to e.v ..plain his conduct in office, he coolly inquired "which senator would like to begin, and dared "his colleagues to press him for thc reasons of "bis resignation; and none of them pressed "him, he having a tongue in his head and "knowing certain secrets. Plenty more things '.ot this sort might be related, and have been, "and nothing is surer than that the rescue of '?'South Carolina from her jtresenl rulers is a "thingfor ichich decent men cvennchere-Dcm "ocrals and Republicans, ESPECIALLY ItBPun "I.ICANS-should pray reith fervor. As we say, "however, there seems to be as yet but Utils '.ground for hope, though probably a thorough "organization of the Lew parly and some hard "work may secure a Legislature for next year "which shall be less of a disgrace U> civiliza "Mon tlian thc last was. Wo must not forget "to mention that the T. J. Mackey who flg "ured in a shooting affray in thc Common Coun "cil some months sluce, and who escaped pun? ishment by pleading ^morphine,' has lust "been made a Trial Justice by uoveraor Scott." REPUBLICANS! Citizens! Business Men! We ask you to ponder over these deliberate expressions of thc first Radical journal in the land, und, thou hesitate, if you can, as good citizens and honest men, to swell the great popular uprising for REFORM. The voice of Charleston goes forth to-night to her sister counties. See to it that it be, indeed, the voice of her whole people, without dis? tinction of clas3, color or political creed ! THE Abbeville Press and Banner thinks that the meaning of the speech of Land Commissioner DeLarge, delivered at Abbe? ville ou Wednesday last, wa3 just this : "The "Reform movement will not injure the color "ed voter, bat will deprive the office-holders "of the monopoly they now enjoy. 'To "the victors belong the spoils,' and the "fewer the claimauts, the larger the share "of each. He claimed a monopoly of love "to thc colored man, because he wou'.d seek "to retain a monopoly of the office; in his .'gift. Thus does selfishness-grasping greed "of office-assume the garb of philanthropy." This makes it all the more important for the colored people to muster in force at the Mass Meeting to night. A CORRESPONDENT in Barnwell gives some samples of Scott taxation. Colonel B. before the war paid $100 ; now he pays S100. Mr. G. D. paid before the war S60, and now pays $300. Dr. H. paid $12 before the war, and now pays $IC0. And it must be taken into consideration that, upon all this property, fences have been levelled and destroyed, gin-houses have been burned and imple? ments lost. The shoe pinches in the same place in Charleston County, and the remedy is-a full attendance at the Hibernian Hall to-night CAPTAIN DUNN, who is canvassing the first Congressional District in opposition to Whit? emore, addressed the electors of George? town last Friday. Whittemore was defended by Representative Jones, who was subse? quently flayed by Representative Bowley, who denounced Whittemore and Jones in a very handsome manner. The Dunn meet? ing was decidedly successful, and as much will be said to-morrow of the Reform Mass Meeting to be held at thc lliberniau Hall to? night Give Them Light. THE brazen mouth piece of the Scott Party is politely invited to publish, for the informa? tion of its limited circle of readers, the grat? ifying article of The Nation on the- Reform movement, printed in TTTE NEWS of this morning. The same unregenerate paper will, please also, state that "the lamp still '.holds out to burn," and that tho Reformers assemble in Mass Meeting at the ll ?berman Hall to-night. WE hope that the suggestion of the ledger, that Lancaster elect delegates to the Col? umbia Convention on sales-day in June, will meet with the concurrence of the county. Charleston elects her delegates at the Hiber? nian Hall at 8 o'clock to-night. ?rp @O0?6, Ut. S EASIDE PARASOLS A full assortment of the popular SEASIDE PAR? ASOLS.

We beg leave respectfully to call the attention of the public to our Superior Flavoring Extracts. As ten years have now elapsed since we first In? troduced them to the notice of the American pub? lic, we deem lt unnecessary at present to enter into a lengthy description of their merits, Ac There is hardly a eity or town of any note in the country into which they have not found their way. The reason of this widespread popularity and dally Increasing demand ls owing entirely to their peculiar excellence and intrinsic woiij}. Being determined to make them the Standard Ex? tracts of the day, we have sim further improved their quality, and now we firmly and honestly be? lieve that they stand without a rival. Our Vanilla Extract cannot be surpassed for richness and delicacy of flavor. It ls a strictly pure and high? ly concentrated Extract of Vanilla Beans. Ia short, we think lt the best that, is made, at least, this is the decision of the best judges In the conn try. We don't pretend to compete in pr?ce with many of the so-called Flavoring Extracts of the day, which are really but worthless compounds, undeserving of the name. For quality and style, we defy competition. DAY15 A MILLER'S PURE YEAST POWDER.
