Christina Nilsson, the accomplished and popu? lar prima donna, there is now no reasonable cause of doubt.

He had also Unes (in aU some 50,000 shares) of leading stocks. Many settle? ments are said to have been made privately, and his friends assert that his actual loss will not exceed $75,000. -We begin to hear the comical side of the monster Beethoven festival in New York. Some amusing thlDgs transpired behind the iscenes, which appear to be infinitely more ifsnny than those presented to the audience. In the conf usion, and general discord of the "striking" singers, all the "strikers"'were gesticulating and talking in ali the lan? guages of the continent of. Europe at once, ap- - pealiog to everybody and anybody who appear? ed by any pou3lblUty to have any authority. Pa repa sent word from ber dressing room to the manager, tho message being carried by her agent that she would net slug. "She no sing," said the agent, "unless she have ze money." Sing she would not, and the manager was obliged to come down with the stamps. Then the stalely Parepa appeared, went to the front, and smiled as sweetly and as charmingly as though there never had been the slightest trouble of any kind about the cash returns. Miss Kellogg, too, followed Parepa's exam? ple, and with arms folded, would not budge until a five hundred dollar check was forth? coming. Brlgnoli, in a mingled patois of English, French and Italian, could not be Induced to 11 fling a note " until handed the cash for his services ; then all was smiles and satisfaction. So it was even with the "strikers'' in the "Anvil Chorus;"' not a blow till the managers shelled out. Another impedi? ment arose to mar the harmony of that portion of the performance; the artilleryman would not "shoot" without his $100 fee. Gilmore was waiting, Parepa was waiting, everybody was walting; finally Gilmore took $100 from his pocket, handed lt to the captain, rushed to the stage, and in a moment Parepa, chorus, or? chestra, Gilmore and guns were thundering away at.the "Star-spangled Banner." Slanders Against The News. There ia, in thia city, a filthy evening pa? per, published in the interest of the Scott Ring, and supported from week to week by money robbed, with or without the forms of law, from the State Treasury. Few respect? able people are aware even of its existence, its circulation being confined, almost exclu? sively, to the State office-holders of high and low degree, among whom it is perfectly well understood that the tenure of their places in? volves uncomplaining submission to the petty black mail of a "subscription" to this wretched organ of the Ring. Each day the editorial columns of- the sheet in question teem with grovelling apologies for the fla? grant atrocities of the gang of thieves and scoundrels who are in possession of our State Government, varied only by impotent abuse of, and lying innuendoes against, THE CHARLESTON NEWS. Conscious of the syste? matic venality which rules its own utter? ances, it has had the unblushing effrontery to insinuate, not once, but repeatedly, that the political course of TUE NEWS has been influenced by corruption. To these insinua? tions, coming from a notoriously infamous source, and inspired by a desperate and shameless thirst for notoriety, we have chosen, hitherto, to pay no heed. Embold? ened, perhaps, by our silence, the mouth? piece of the Ring ventures to become more explicit in its slanders. In its issue of Sat? urday we find these words: "We charge that TUE CHARLESTON NEWS, which makes such a show in its advocacy of honesty, received a bribe to cease its denun? ciations of the [Phosphate] bill." In South Carolina, where the relative standing, integrity and veracity of TUE JIL'.RLEBTON NEWS and its accuser are kncwn, any notice of this charge at our hands migiit be needless. But lest the false? hood should find its way uncontradicted be? yond the limits of the State, to the discredit of the Union Reform cause in the eyes of the country, we deem it best to meet it at once and squarely. We therefore brand the statement we have quoted as utterly and maliciously false. If even a shadow of foundation exists for the charge, the proof must be easy. The pro? prietors of THE NEWS here distinctly invite and defy the Ring and all its satellites to ad? duce such proof. Until tho proof be forth? coming, the editors of the Ring organ must stand before the public not only as politics.: knaves, but as unscrupulous and self-con? victed liars and defamers. Woman's Wrongs. Mr. John Stuart Mill, Mr. John Bright, and a few other agitators of more brass and less brain, have succeeded in impressing the British public with the blessed idea that the woman's rights questiou is "one of the mo "mentous issues of the hour." These United States no longer monopolize the discussion, and vindication, of the wrongs and rights of coy and uncertain women. The extension of the suffrage flavors the Bohea and crisps the toast; a,friendly criticism of female surgeons aud nascent female statesmen, forms thence de resistance at the noontide luncheou; the inalienable right of every female, particular? ly if she be youDg and pretty, to have her own way in every thing is a pungent sauce for every dish of a progressive British din? ner. Good Queen Bess, Rosa Bonheur, Maria Theresa, Charlotte Bronte, Boadicea, George Eliot, not to mention Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan Anthony, aud Dr. Mary Walker, are familiar names in every British mouth. Biographical diction? aries, and ancient and modern histories, are ransacked for examples of true womanhood, although the advocates of independence and strong-mindedness do find it rather awkward when, for one of their cherished types, they come across a hundred of the Faustinas, Margots, or Briuvilliers of this or an earlier century- The inspired writer says that as the twig is bent the tree is inclined, but the new school of womanhood appear to think that the absence of all restraint, a freedom from all bending, will enable the green twig to grow up into- an nrboriferous model of 'comeliness and beauty. As we have said, certain classes of English maids and matrons, fired by the "Subjec "tion of Woman," have a serious attack of the Equality of the Sexes, and yet there is as much difference between the English idea of the Rights of Woman and the American teaching of the same, as there is between poor Princess Editha and the gracious Lady Amberley. It was not Editha's fault that her father was a King and her mother a Lola Montez, but the shadowy rauk aud lille which she bore caused her to be snatched up by the advocates of Woman's Rights, who would not be satisfied until they had hoisted Her JRoyal Highness on lo the public stage, had traded upon her mother's ?l?ame, and made a market of her father's disUouor. The best cause on earth would be imperilled by such pranks as these. Lady Amberley, however, is the daughter of a peer, if not the wife of one, and her first appearance in public, as the champion of the Rights of Woman, must have sent a mild thrill of astonishment through the bone3 of all the old maids and old fogies in England. This lady was too high and lofty to bo pooh! poohed and coughed down. The danger was that the movement would become the fashion ; and all the more so, as Lady Ani berley's speech met with the complete ap? probation of the newspapers. It is true that The Times, afflicted with a convenient ob? tuseness, could not understand her "points," but, as a general thing, hex ideas were writ? ten down as sound, and her views as remark? ably sensible. Now, what did it ail amount to? Her Ladyship chose, aa the especial ob? jects of her sympathy, the women who have neither husbands nor children ; exposing, be? sides, the hardships of those unfortunates, who, being unable to hold property of their own, are absolutely at the mercy of a drunk? en and prolligate husband. And who will deny that, even in England, there are thous? ands of cases of cruelties perpetrated on teuder wive3 and children by the absolute brutality of men, which demand a remedy which shall be both quick and sure? All that Lady Amberley asks is, that women shall be properly protected iu their rights of person and property, and that, for the same work, women shall receive the same wages as men. Nor did she foolishly propose to secure this last result by legislation. "Any? thing so absurd," her Ladyship says, "never fell from her lips; but," she continues, "other forces may produce the same result." Combination without education, or with so little of it as to be scarcely worth mention? ing, has enabled men to obtain better wages than by their isolated efforts they would have been able to secure; and Lady Amberley believes that by better education and a greater variety of employment, with this potent power of combination superad ded, women may hereafter command better prices for their labor. It is evident enough that Lady Amberley does not go the lengths of the New England party of Woman's Eights. What she asks for is already secured to American women in this State, and, we oelieve, in nearly eve? ry other State of the Union. And Mr. John Bright,- the other day, told the correspondent of an American paper that he had no sym? pathy whatever with the agitators of Amer? ica like TiltOD, Stanton aud Anthony, who sought the suffrage for women in order that with it they might overturn society and bring about a reign of free lovers, free di? vorce, and the abolition of the headship of men in the family. Happily, in England, the agitation in favor of woman suffrage has been kept wholly free from such issues as these, and the persons engaged in it regard? ed the doctrines preached on the rostrums of Woman's Rights meetings in America with horror and disgust. The hard-featured, hard fisted, twang-tongued, men-women who de? claim upon womau's wrongs at the rate of fifty dollars a night, (gas and hall rent ex? clusive,) would meet with little encourage? ment and less sympathy in England. There, it is desired to elevate the woman, to make her more noble, more pure, more strong, mo"e independent, but always-a woman. Here, the leather-lnnged spouters of theWood" ' hull & Claflin, or Susan B. Anthony order, do all that they can to strip them and their's of all that is sweetest and tenderest; in woman. Lady Amberley and her patrician col? leagues, as well a3 the thoughtful women of the potent middle classes, are striving to ob? tain for their sex fair play and ample protec? tion. And they have an earnest of success in the ease with which the Married Women's Property Bill passed the House of Commons. That bill in no degree promotes what by way of reproach has been termed th* "polit "ioal rights" of women, but merely proposes to place tn their own hands the property which belongs to them as individuals, and which can only be handed over to anybody else in defiance of every sentiment and in? stinct of justice. But while the leaders among English women are working steadily up to a visible and an attainable goal, their American sis? ters intrigue with a dubious Princess, sigh for spike-tail coats, pant for bifurcate nether garments, and make up their minds to enjoy all the rights of man, from a free lunch to a free fight, from holding public office to be? coming food for powder. And when all these rights are actually theirs, the next move will be for a new constitutional amend? ment, providiug that if, for the good of the nation, any woman should deign to become the motlier of a child, all the dry-nursing and wet-nursing shall be done by its unfor? tunate father, or by a mechanical Maria Jane, furnished for the common good, by a happy and grateful country. "The Nation'1 on the Union Reform Movement, We invite the attention of the honest Re? publicans of South Carolina to the following utterance concerning the politics of our State, from that sterling Republican journal, The Nation : ^ "The Reform Party has mel in successful convention at Columbia, and, after speeches from white and colored speakers, has nomi? nated for Governor Judge Carpenter, formerly a Federal General, and for Lieutenant-Gov ernor General Butler, formerly of the Confed? erate service, and a South Carolinian of the South Carolinians. He is a relative ol the Sen? ator Butler who once represented the State in the United States Senate, and was a celebrity in his day. The prospects of the Reform party seem more favorable than they were, and their platform, which accepts the Fifteenth amend? ment and every other result of the war, leaves nothing to be desired. A thing for Republican leaders to note about this business is the indi? cation it gives that a colored South, solid for a Republican candidate, ls not at all sure now, and grows rather less sure with evory day."
