COLUMBIA. Sunday Morning, January 19,1008. An lnvMloim IilHtlnctlon. ' Mr. John A. Bingham, a Republi? can Representative from Ohio, in his spceoh on the lust bill reverted from tho Committee on Reconstruc? tion, repeatedly said that there oro but two parties in the United States -ono tho party of the country and the other of its enemies. Consider? ing the results of lota elections in the Northern and Western States, this, tho Baltimore Sun thinks, is a very damaging statement. The Re? publican porty, which Mr. Bingham considers the party of the country, hos been thrown ia some of the most populous States into a minority, and has everywhere lost ground, so that it is probably within bounds to as? sert that it is itself so doubtful of ita strength iu the Northern States, that it is placing its reliance for the pre? servation of its political power upon tho Africanization of the South. As I the Trhit? people of tho South are .uniformly stigmatized as rebels, and tho radical party in tho North does not include much more than hali' the population, if that, it follows -if Mr. Bingham's assertion is correct-that tho majority of the people of the United States are enemies of their country. As Americans, wo should bo reluctant to make such an admis? sion. Doubtless the country has enemies within its limits, but they are not among those who seek to preserve its Constitution, its union and its civil liberties, as they wero handed down to us by tho founders of tho Government. ATMOSPHERIC CHANGES.-The causes of certain atmospheric phenomena havo been discussed by a scientifio French professor, who maintains that these causes aro internal. Taking it for granted that the central moss of the globe is fluid fire, it is urged that tho vapor therefrom, acting against the inner surface of tho earth's crust by which it is enclosed, will, by ex? citing powerful electrical currents, produco sudden changes above the surface Ho maintains that another effect of the internal pressure will be continual changes of level on the outer surface, so much so that, in his point of view, there is no such thing as firm land. This is a very uncomfortable theory for thc inhabi? tants of the outer crusts of this planet, especially in those regions recently shaken by earthquakes. G OED AND SILVER PROD COT.-Of? ficial ligures, from the Pacific slope, show n steady increase in tho produc? tion of tho precious metals. The mint al San Francisco received in silver, iu November last, 00,800 Ounces, against 59,797 ounces in October, 34,993 ounces in Septem? ber, and 51,997 ounces in August. The increase promises to be regular and constant. Of gold, the receipts for eleven months, to tho first of De? cember, 1807, were950,717.03 ounces, against 913,068.75 for tho same period in 1800. The coinage for tho same timo was in 18G7, 818,195,535, and in ?866, $10, lili,500, showing au in? crease of 82,019,035. -?-?..?-? A NEW PARTY.-Tho New York Herald, advocating a call for a Con? vention of thc peoplo of tho East, tho West, the North and the South, and upon all mon of all parties favor? able to the grand idea of a new Union party, says: "We want a Convention and a party fresh from the people. "But in whoso name shall this Con? vention bo called? for in a movement for a new party, it must havo some name and some representative man around whom to rally. Let it bo call? ed in the name and upon the princi? ples cmbodiadinthoname of Andrew Johnson. He has boen making his? tory und a historical reputation since 1800. Of all men in tho country ho stands forth in tho boldest relief as the champion of the Constitution, against tho revolutionary radicals. He has been tho only check that baa saved us so far from tho extreme de? signs of radical fanaticism." -? # ? ? TUE DIFFERENCE.-Says thc New York Times, of tho lGth: "The colored citizen made his or? dinary appearance in Congress yes? terday, lu tho Senate, ho Btepped forward immediately after the dis? missal of tho destitute Southerner. The latter asked for aid to koop bim from starving, and tho former asked for legislation to prevent 'unjust dis? crimination' against him. Wo hope that equal consideration may bo given to the caso ol' each." The Reconstruction Convention. FOURTH DAT.

Never make assertions about her that you think are untrue, allusions that you feel she herself would blush to hear. When you meet with men who do not scru? ple to make use of a womau's namo in a reckless manner, shun them, for they are tho very worst members of the community-men lo3t to every sense of honor, every fcoliug of hu? manity. A reverend gentleman mado uso of tho following illustration, when en? gaged in private converso, a few days ago: "The Scriptures," said ho, I "may bo compared to woman's hair, which is twisted and turned into many forms and fashions, each ono arranging hers in the mode which she thinks most becoming. In like manner the Scriptures are twisted and turned by tho differeut sects, though they aro a unit in their cha? racter, and admit of but ono true in? terpretation.
