At thc meeting of ?ie *Na:??n?? Woman's Suffrage Associa? tion," last night, Mrs. Stanton denounced it . vehemently as "practically saying that no man shailever protect women in such vile relations ss this woman was held in relation to McFar ! and."- In either words, Mrs. Stanton is indig? nant because a jory did not justify thc break - ' lng up of McFarland's home, and thc taking away bf his wile and children by Albert D. Richardson. -The project for giving to New Y'ork a place of popular resort and Instructive amusement, fashioned in some manner upon the great Crystal Palace at Sydenham, England, seems to meet with favor on all hands, and as the coporatprs are soon to elect officers, the en? terprise will probably take a tangible form before long. The charlot- granted by the Legislature allows a capital of 47,000,000 and Is practically perpetual, being for fifty years "and thereafter unless repealed." - At present the Central Park is the great and in effect the ?only general ?rnusemqpt field for the masses, and that for several months o? thc year is un? desirable, whi.e at Its best estate it furnishes but one form of enjoyment The English pal? ace is accessible from London bridge by rail in fifteen minutes' time, and ls open every day la the year at prices, Including the railroad fares both ways, but little above these of the? atre admission, lt is surrounded by extensive .grounds, laid out in the highest style of land 6cape art, while inside its Egyptian, Assyrian, Grecian, Beman, Byzantine, Italian and other distinctively national courts are constructed not only ia the architectural styles of their designations, bul filled with the industrial and art productions of the nations which they represent, giants, statuary, music and various attractions for the entertainment as well as the instruction of the people. Il such a scheme as sketchec can ufe carried out in New York, the masses are to be congratulated upon a chance for odticatiou as well as amusement, but iu the rush ol gruud improvement projects In that ambitious city such considerations arc apt to give place to the more prosaic but re? munerative ones of pure money-getting. Thc Glorious Work Begau : The Maus Meeting of the friends of Re? trenchment and Reform, held at the Hiber nian Hall last night, was one of the largest thaiCliarl?ston has ever known. Not only was the spacious hall crammed with earnest men eager to join in the good work, but the concourse filled the stairways aud corridors, and re8jph<>d out to the very sidewalk. As was expected, a clique of the partisans of Scott attempted to create a disturbance, but they were at once put down by the stentorian Iung3 of tho supporters of the Reform move? ment Thus was it shown that the Scott coterie desired to gag that very Free Speech of which they proclaim themselves the champions; thus did they show that they fear the truth, and dare not allow the broad sunlight of Reform to pour in upon them and upon their actions. It was of a piece with their usual practices, to declare, as they did, when the Grand Mass Meeting had adjourn? ed, that "the Charleston Reformers should never holli a meeting in peace again. We shall see. The solid phalanx of honest citi? zens will not shirk the issue. The business of the meeting was purely formal. Brief and stirring speeches were made by white men and by colored men. A delegation of good men and true wa3 ap? pointed tc represent the County in the State Convention, which meets in Columbia in June. All the State was invited to join with Charleston in sending delegates to the June Convention, so that the policy then adopted may be carried out with harmony aud with energy by all good citizens. This wa3 the whole work, and it was enough. It was not within the province of the meeting to au uounce names or declare platforms. That must be done by the wholo State in Conven? tion assembled. Charleston has spoken witli trumpet tongue, and now awaits the action of Richland and Anderson, of Barn? well and Newberry, of Kershaw and Laurens, of Union and Horry-of every county which. | has not yet chosen the men who shall repre? sent it in :;he Great Convention of the Peo? ple which will assemble next month. Tlie wo rk is begun, and well begun. Let the rest of the State respond to tho voice of | Charleston, and our great foe, General Apa? thy, will be conquered, and South Carolina will enter fairly and squarely upon the plain path, the broad path, the only 6afe path-the path of Retrenchment and Reform. Then may all our people meet and join battle with Dis? honesty aud Corruption. And when Victory perches o a our banners, none will forget that the tocsin of alarm wa3 sounded in this good old city on au eventful Monday night. Friends of Retrenchment and Reform, a thousand times Well done ! Judge Carpenter on thc Scott Ring. Judge Carpenter, in a card correcting cer? tain misstatements in regard to him, made in a Radical sheet, says, very plainly: "Though u Republican, I lia ve very decided "views in reference to the want of fitness "and integrity of certain men who have "sought und obtained political preferment "from tho Republican party, and in private "life, among personal friends of all shades of j political opinion, I have not hesitated to "give those views expression." Judge Carpenter is a sagacious and out? spoken Republican. A Northern Vfcir of thc Late Immigra? tion Convention. It is pleasant lo know that a Radical jour? nal of high standing like The Nation, which has at one/) the quickness to observe, and the houejity to avow, that thc political condi tion of South Carolina is "a disgrace to "civilization," regards the non-political news from our State as "a great deal better than "most persons in the North have been hop "ing for," and as "absolutely good." Aliud ing to the results of the recent Immigration Convention in this city, The Nation says "It is surprising, lor example, to learn that one small association working in Newberry District, a fine coantry with a beautiful cli? mate and lying in the middle region, between the sand and the hills, alone has Introduced almost 500 European Immigrants-Swedes wo take them to be, for the gentleman who gave the account ot thom went on to say, that 'if you give a Swedish laborer a peck of meal and three pounds o? bacon a week you may expect bim to tabernacle with you only for a night:' and ho ndded somethiag to the efl'eot that thc Swede Isa free man, who conies to this coun? try to better lils condition, aud not to be a serf, and who must be treated accordingly. These remarks mude in a convention which sal. for several days ia Charleston, and included delegates from Georgia as well as from all parts of South Carolina, Looking over the report of thc proceedings, we noted an entire absence of tho spirit but recently pervading the South Carolinian miud-the spirit which demands, not immigrants who de? sire to better themselves, but a servile peasan? try. It appears as if thera were now a genuine wish to foster the sort of im? migration from abroad and from the North and East which has built up the States of thc West and made them thc wonder of the world; and an elaborate plan to accom? plish the desired result was submitted to the convention, and, after intelligent debate, adopted. The South was always ready enough to hold conventions, agricultural and other, and it is bard, when we read thc Charleston r?solutions, not to think of the gentlemen who used regularly to meet and resolve that Nor folk, Virginia, waa designed by God to be the greatest seaport on this continent; bnt still, the resolutions before us hare a very business? like and hopeful look."' A Notable Gathering. The Evaugelical Alliance, under whose auspices it is proposed to hold in New York City, during the coming-fall, a sort of Pro? testant (Ecumenical Council, in rivalry of^lf not in opposition to, that of the Vatican, is a voluntary organization, embracing mem? bers of various Protestant religious denomi? nations. They come together ostensibly to effect certain objects held in common by all, at the foundation of which lies the promo? tion of what the Alliance assumes to be evan? gelical religion, in contradistinction to Ro? man Catholicism, acknowledged irreligion, atlieism and infidelity. But in defining what constitutes evangelical religion, the Alliance-may treuch on dangerous ground, and weaken its bond of union. The Alliance is based on what is supposed to be the consensus of the various confes? sions of faith adopted by different Protestant denominations mutually recognizing each other ns evangelical. This summary was originally adopted in London in 1846. Il embraces the following cardinal principles: I*The divine inspiration, authority and suf ficiency of the Holy Scriptures. II. Tho right and duty of private judgment in the interpretation of Hie Holy Scriptures. III. Tlie unity of the Godhead, and the Trio ity of the Persons therein. IV. The utter depravity of human nature it consequence of the fall. V. The incarnation of the Son of God, HI; work of atonement for sinners of mankind and His mediatorial intercession and reign. VI. The justification of thc sinner by faltl alone. VII. Tlie work of the Holy Spirit in the con version and sanctification of the sinner. VIII. The immortality of the soul, the resur j'cction ot' the body, the judgment ot the work by our Lord Jesus Christ, with the cterna blessedness of the righteous, and the eterna punishment of the wicked. IX. The divine institution of the Christine ministry, and the obligation and perpetuity of tL* ordinance of Baptism and the Lord'f Supper. The Alliance, however, in adopting this summary, as if foreseeing threatened danger, is careful to protest that it does not accept or adopt it as a creed or confession, bul merely as an indication of the class of per sons whom it is desirable to embrace within Ute organization. ? The Alliance bas encountered opposition, even among Protestant denominations, tc ?ts efforts to assemble its grand (Ecumenical Council. The summary of faith or basis ol union at one blow cuts oil the large and influ? ential denominations of Christians, called Uni? tarians and Universalists, and is not espe? cially acceptable to the different schools ol Lutherans. Theologians of the Bcecbet school, who have been charged with tenden? cies averse to Trinitarianism-or at leasl with undue sympathy with Unitarianism - will hardly take kindly to the basis. Ritual? istic or High Church Episcopalians, who in? variably stand aloof from all unions, may bc expected to have nothing to do with this Al? liance or its General Conference. But there ia another element, particularly in the Church, of England, which at present is repelled bj the rigidity of thc Alliance platform. This is that influential body represented by Dean Alford, of Canterbury, who withholds his ac? ceptance of an invitation to participate ir tlie conference until the extreme Calvinism of the basis is modified or satisfactorily ex? plained. tost ano -fanni).
