THE FEELING IN ENOEAND-SUMNER AND BRIGHT.-A letter from London, of May 10, to tho New York Herald, says: "The feeling in Euglaud against any fur- 1 thor concessions in tho Alabama matter i grows decidedly stronger every day, and however averse and unprepared England may bo for war, there is no manner of doubt j that no ministry could exist a week thal should accede to the propositions fore- j shadowed in Sumner's ?peech. Eveu the great apostle of peace, John Bright, is op- j posed to goiug much further thau the John- j 8on-Stauley treaty contemplated. On Sa-1 turday, Mr. Bright spent two hours at the American legation, and was emphatic in his declaration that Euglaud coilld never yield j tho right she claimed to rrvo.iuize the belli gerenoy of the South at ht r own time. He ' would, however, be willing to express re? gret for tho remissness that suffered the Alabama to escape, and for tho culpable act of allowing her to pursue ber piratical careor, aud to visit at her will the Euglish colonial ports, and would then agree to paj? al 1 tho damnges she had occasioned, leaving out of the question the bogus claims of the cotton loan speculators against the United States. There is a singular statement, by tho way, going tho rounds in political cir? cles, to tho effect that Bright received a let? ter from Senator Sumner, written on tho 19th and 20th of January last, in which the American Senator states if the Johnson Stanley treaty had arrived in Washington a month or six weeks sooner than it did, it would have been almost unanimously rati? fied by the Senate, and expresses n wish that such a result had been arrived at. Mr. Bright makes no secret of this letter, and much curious comment is made upon the striking inconsistency between its alleged contents and the Senator's recent speech." -o GREELEY ON THE FUTURE OF THE SOUTH? ERN RADICALS.-Horace Greeley bas written to tho editor of tho Wheeling Intelligencer a letter, in which he gives the Southern radi? cals generally a bit of advice. The letter is ns follows: NEW YORK TRTP.UNE, NEW YonK, November 18, 1868. My DEAR SIR: I have yours of the loth. Its loading positions have long been under? stood and appreciated in this quarter. Now hear me. Every year 1,000 of your rebels die, and 1.000 (or more) of their sons bccouio of ago. You can't disfrauchiso them. Yon have now 5,000 majority. Six years at furthest will : convert this iuto a rebel majority of 1,000. 1 Then tho rebels will be enfranchised in spite of you, and tho blacks will bo left under foot-aud you under-cstimate these at 2,000. Go your own way, and seo if tho rebels don't have you under foot iu less than bix years. I spe;>k from a wide experience when I tell you that your house is built on tho sand. It cauuot stand. Every year will seo tho passions of tho war cool and the domand for amnesty strengthened. Now j-ou can am? nesty tho rebels. Soon tho question will bo, shall they amnesty you? Look at Kentucky and road your certain fate in theirs. Yours, HORACE GREELEY. -0 Wo can no more judge of the true value of a mau by tho impression which he makes on the public, than wo can tell whether the seal was gold or brass by which the stamp was made. An hours' industry will do more to pro duoe cheerfulness, suppress ovil humors, and retrieve your affairs, than a month's moaning. No person ever got stung by hornets who kept away from where they were. It is just so with bad hr bits. Sure way to turn people's heads-go late to church. .t? j tl; COV?MB1A JfARKJST. i?tfpori for TrT?tvt enclin;; J,riday,.lfaV 28. l80^ FatENii ?rricE, COLUMBIA. May 29. i860.
