COLUMBIA. . -.-_-_ ; Friday morning, December 13,1887. The BYlUab Ocvornmcnt mad tit* Y Irtel?. Feninnism is but the name of a piebald political organization, divid? ed into petty cliques, under various partisan and, wo believe, unworthy leaders. The outbreaks nt Manches? ter and other places, said to be the off-spring of Feninnism, have caused considerable excitement, and have resulted in the criminal exeoution of some of the members of the organ A ization. But no man who has read the history of the unnatural connec? tion between England and Iceland, cnn fail to perceive that these dis? orders, no matter under what name they occur, result more from the chronic condition of discontent pre? vailing among certain olasses of the Irish people. Tho situation of Eng? lish society is most unnatural, and the poor and unedocated cnn see that as. clearly as the best economists. The enduring contrast between the extremes of wealth and poverty to bo noted almost everywhere in England and Ireland, as a matter of course, is severely felt by the poverty-stricken. When a man's labor. cannot bring bread'enough for himself and those depending upon him, his necessity knows and cares nothing for law. We agree, th?refore, with a cotem porary, that the fault in these dis? turbances rests with those who have made and would keep English socie? ty what it is. The blood shed in these disturbances, is spilt by the power that punishes the law-break? ers, English law is the criminal. The poor, goaded to despair by a sys? tem they cannot improve, ore the victims from first to lost. How much more enlightened, merciful and just would be the attitude of the Queen, were she to demand of the British Parliament a thorough reform of the old abuses of the law, whioh create and support in affluence, privileged and non-working classes, taking away npportunity for the ameliora? tion of the situation of the poor. Feninnism could do nothing in Eng? land, were it not for the law of primo? geniture and of entail, and for other similar rules of a semi-civilized time. Repression and punishment, no mat? ter how severe, will not cure tho evil. ? discontented populace is a political element, fnll of gravo danger to the body politic. Tho history of the year 1789, in France, should teach British legislators something. And so the history of Ireland, from Queen Elizabeth's day Lo ours"should be to English statesmen full of warn? ing. Justice, majestic from its mercy, venerable from its utility, should always make a part of politics and of law. But we will let the past ???st<wry of Ireland go, and turn with relief,, even if we turn hopelessly, to the future. Whatever may be its political vicissitudes, Ireland will re? main; and if it is to remain an inte? gral portion of tho British empire, .and tuc British policy of severity and injustice itt io be persisted in, there ?an be little doubt but that tho abso? lute extermination of the Irish race, or its coiuploto removal from its salural soil, will bo logically neces? sary. Lot it be remembered as a leading historical fact, that the Irish people, enslaved, starved, and mas? sacred ns they have been, aro to-day unconquered and, in the truest sense of the word, unconquerable. Lot us, therefore, look forward with hope that a reformation in tho laws and thc social condition of tho people in the "old country" will yet bring con? tentment and peace to the Irish nation. < ? ? > Speele Payments. An early return to specio payments by the Government and in financial circles would certainly be a desirable movement, as beneficial to the busi? ness interests of tho country; but there are so many plans suggested, and so many financial doctors ai work, that the project will reniait unfulfilled for some time. Our de spatches have already informed om readors that a memorial from thc New York Chamber of Commerco or tho Bubject had already been sub mittod to Congress. It may bo inte resting, therefore, to know tho view: of somo of tho leading members o the Chamber on tho subject. Tba body recently held a special meeting to receivo tho report of the Commit tee, which was appointed to consider tho subject of an early return to specie payments, the reasons there? for, and the earliest date at which resumption would be practicable. The report is lengthy and interest? ing, reciting the disadvantages at home and abroad, resulting from the present inflated state of the carron cy, and the importance of returning to specie payments as one of great moral significance. The Committee could see no reason why specie pay? ments couler not be resumed in 1809, provided that, in the meantime, the temporary debt of the Government shall have been funded. They op? posed tho increase of legal tendera, by substituting Treasury notes there? for, and the increase of tho bank cir? culation. After the discussion, tho report was adopted, and the Com? mittee instructed to prepare tho me? morial now before Congress. In the debate upon tho report, several leading financiers of New York took part. The principles em? bodied in tho report were genorally endorsed, though there was some difference of opinion as to the proper time for specie resumption-some urging a later, others an earlier, pe? riod. One of the speakers, Mr. Chittcnden, argued that a quick re? turn to speoie paymouts is essential to the integrity of tho Government. He then spoke in' favor of a repeal of the cotton tax by Congress, and pre? dicted that, if this was done, and CongressTvonld immediately adjourn, gold would bo at 120 before Christ? mas. He further said, that the coun? try was much better prepared for a return to specie payments at the ?losc of the war than it is at the pre? sent time, and that the longer the measure is delayed, tho more difficult it would become. ACQUISITION OF CUBA.-By a letter from the Havana special correspond? ant of the New York Herald, it would ippear that Mr. Seward is still in the real estate business, and is now nego? tiating for the purchase of thc island af Cuba and endeavoring to prove tho theory which ho promulgated sight years ago-that Cuba was gra? vitating towards the United States was correct. What scorns most strange, is tho announcement that the Spanish Government looks favor? ably on tho proposition to purchase the island, and seems inclined to enter into negotiations which would deprive her of the most valuable jewel of her possessions. The state? ment may be true. THAT IS SO!-The New York Tri? bune, in reforring to tho message of the President, says: "It will bo seen that his Excellency still clings to the theories which thus far has produced ?erious differences between himself ind Congress." Yes-he still ad? heres to the Constitution, and Con? gress continues to disregard it, and there Is where the differences arise, rho President is unquestionably right, and Congress unquestionably wrong. Tho President demands that tho Southern States shall be govern? ed in accordance with the provisions D? the Constitution, and Congress insists that they shall bo governed in accordance with its will, and "outside of the Constitution." -<-?*-. VIRGINIA.-The Eichmond Whig gives tho following account of the political situation in Virginia: "Before tho late elections the num? ber of registered persons, white and black, was 221,751. Of this aggregate 116,982 were whites and 10-1,772 blacks, giving a white majority of 12,210. Tho voto cast for tho Con? vention was 11,835 whites and 92,507 blacks. Tho vote cast against tho Convention was 01,219 whites and 638 blacks. Aggregate voto cast was 169,229-less by 52,525 than tho number registered. Of tho 52,525 registered votes not cast, 10,898 were whites and 11,627 blacks. Of tho 11,835 whites who voted for a Con? vention, it is safe to assume that not more than 5,000 aro radicals, who will vote for a radical Constitution. 5,000 white radicals added to tho 101,000 registered blacks give 109,000 radical aggregate. "It is believed that tho wholo radi? cal strength has bpo*. registered. To offset this, we have 111,982 white conservatives registered, and from 15,000 to 20,000 to bo registorod, which would give us a conservativo vote against an offensive radical Con? stitution, of say from 125,000 to 130,000. Is it not plain, then, that it is in our power, if we all register who are entitled to register, and all vote who are ontitled to voto, to de? feat any Constitution framed under tho present reconstruction laws which shall not be agreeable to us?" INCK??DIA?UBM.-Tho steam saw mill belonging to Messrs. J. P. Bridger Sc Co., located on Black River, twenty miles above Georgetown, was disco? vered to be on Aro at 4 o'clock, on the morning.of the 10th instant, and before assistance could be obtained, it was totaUy destroyed, The tracks of two men were discovered, leading towards the river, and the boat, which had been fastened to the wharf the night previous, was stolen, sup? posed by the incendiaries. The dwelling house at Brown's Ferry, one and a half miles from the mill, was also totally destroyed by fire the same night.-Charleston Courier.

It is entitled "Tho Lover's Diction? ary a Poetical Treasury of Lovers' Thoughts, Fancies, Addresses and Dilemmas."
