B?D?OTTOH IN Psioa-f^Tj?BDi?tQ.-The WSSKIJT CLZAKISB COD tains more reading matter than any other family paper pub? lished ia the South-thirty-two long columns, printed in clear type. It ia Ailed with original ns well as selected matter-?ditorials, correspondence, ^eme? ral nows, markets, telegrams, interest jog stories, sketches, poetry, etc. Dur? ing tho early part of tbp coming year its columns will be graced by u highly entertaining nouveuetle, the produetion of a lady of this city, and which has been pronounced by disinterested critics as equal to the very beat of "Marion Harland's" work?. This story is entitled "Orkney, or tho Fortune? of Juliet Cly? burn-a tale of the Palmetto State," and will ran through about twenty numbers of tuer "GtBANEB." Aa we are desirous of in trod a oin g the paper-wbioh is in every sense a "homo companion"-into every family in the State, we have de? termined to reduco the yearly subscrip? tion price; as follows-payable, is all cases, in advance: Single copy $2.75; ten copies, (to one post office,) $25.00; twenty copies $45.00; fifty oopies $100. The G LEAN EB and the ' 'Rural Caroli nian"-tho popular agricultural monthly -will be furnished, for one year, at r'our dollars. The above rates go into effect on the first of January, 1870. Sf ate of Affair* la Sontb Carolina-The r>aty He fore Us. We have in Sonth Carolina what may be called a "pretty1* state of affairs. Here in the capital a Legislature is in session, and according to the acknow? ledgment of some of its members of the majority, it is more intent upon provid? ing for the officials than the interest of the people. To the standard of money, or private gain, almost every measure is brought; and the great question seems to be, how can money be made out of tho State. Mattera of edncation and of sub? stantial advantage to the State givo way to the more attractive concerns of bonds and stocks. But" turn from the capital, where fortunes are making by the know? ing ones, and what is the conditiou of the State? An incendiary fire greets us with unwonted frequency. And who is responsible for this? We believe that Got. Scott is, to a great extent. He it is who, in his proclamations, throws out thone ambiguous words to the State, the fruit of whioli may be realized iu the flames that consume the gin-house and the private dwelling. Let the sober citizens of South Carolina look upon thie picture, and let them consider what theil duty is. If in South Carolina we aro tc have a condition of order and law and prosperity-if wo are to have wise laws properly administered-if wo are to havt honest officials, who regard the public in terests-if we are to have a State fit tc live in-we must offer to the presen I regime the front of a steady, firm one persistent opposition. We must rcpudi ate the suggestions of those time-servinr. men who, though pretending to oppost the present political anomaly in Soutl Carolina, are yet, for lucro or place, aid iug and abetting tho foes to the commoi weal. We repeat it, that the duty befon us is plain. We must resolve uot to gi vi up South Carolina to the rude grasp tba is uow laid upon her. Fixing upon ? policy that is moderate and acceptable ti the sober sense of the people, wo mus pursue it perseveringly and steadily un ti a wisc, a virtuous and nu iutelligeu rule is established over South Carolina a rule which recognizes tho claims o both classes in South Carolina, am which looks to the moral and materia development of the State-a develop ment not sought to be attained by arti ficial and illegitimate methods, but b; those solid means which leave capita and labor and enterprise, unfettered b hostile enactments, to do their goo* work. As our readers kuow, wc ave n extremist-no alarmist-no uensationisl We appreciate tho true mission of joui nalism. We say what wo feel, and wha wo believe is justified by tho fact an the testimony. In this spirit-speukin for a Stato endeared to us all-speakin in behalf of a long-suffering people, w tell them that in South Carolina, lookin to her Legislature where tho impudenc of the carpet-bagger, conjoined with th ignorance and prejudice of the negro, i making laws, and raising money, au creating offices, and votiug away monej and in general runuing riot in crud legislation and partial enaotmcDts-lool ing, we say, to her Legislature, where a this is done, and looking, too, to he Executive, in whom a willing ally is t be found-the duty of tho great mass t our people is obvious. It is by organ zation, and resolution, aud spirit, an work, lo build np tho political powei that will change all this. WhcD th time comes for a ohango of rulers, let n man weakly say that weare in aminorit and aro powerless. There is power i pluck, and there tire resources in a d< termiued will. Elven in a virtuous effor there is a success. We summon the me of South Carolina to tho patriotic dut before them. That duty, briefly Btatot i ft to redeem the State. -*ReComimttee ot?

THB MILITARY MOVEMENTS OF WIM nusn.-Tho Washington correspondent of tho Charleston Courier says: "In tho National Negro Labor Con? vention, South Caroliua was represented, and the delegates from that State took a prominont part. One of them, Wim bnsb, went far ahoad of all thc others, in asserting tho rights of thc frocdmon, de? claring that tho next United Ht a tes Sena? tor elected from South uar oh nu would be a nogro, and that he was himself rais? ing a colored militia regiment that would drive their Ku Klux enemies to the wall." Let tho Chester Reporter tuko notice. "Loo," tho Washington correspon? dent of tho Charleston Courier, says, iu reference to the attitude of Virginia: "Tho situation of Virginia as a sup? pliant, through legislativo committee, for admission, after she had complied entirely with all the onerous terms of admission imposed upon her, is very hu? miliating. Somo members of her State Government, on the cousorvativo side, are pledging themselves that the Statu shall keep iu the radical track, and it is through this formal pledge only that tho Reconstruction Committee will bo in? duced to receivo her. "It is true, however, that some of the members of Congress olected from Vir? ginia, and many of her conservative citizens disapprove of, and rebuke this begging for admission. They say, that haviug done all that the Federal Govern? ment requirod, they are entitled to ad? mission without further humiliation. They scout tho idea of giving any pro? mises for the future, and will not cvon ask Congress to in i ni, in good faith, its own obligation. It is true, -also, that some of tho members of tho begging oommittecs who have signed the pledgo against nuy chango of the radical pro? visions of the State Constitution, laugh at their own nctiou, saying that they claim no right whatever to bind thc State ns to its futuro action." SPANISH CHUELTIES.-There is no doubt that tho Spaniards practice tho most shockiug atrocities towards tho Cubaus. Tho evidence upon tho sub? ject cannot be questioned, for a portion of it comes from the Spaniards them? selves. A Spanish mail was recently captured, and its contents have becu published. As au example of tho letters, we give extracts from two. One person, writing from Santa Clara, September 30, to a friend in Spain, says: "You cannot imagiue the number of denths withiu tho past four months-it can hardly be esti? mated. What between those that oro killed iu action, and thoso shot as spies or co-laborers of tho revolution in this district alone over 300 hundred monthly. I, with my party alone, have dispatched nine so fur, and I will never tire of kill? ing," etc. Another, writing from Encru? cijada, in September last, says: "Wo caught 17 satellites, of whom 13 were immediately shot, and all of them, afc the moment of dying, shouted 1 Viva Cuba libre!' Ono mulatto cried out, * Viva C?spedes!' As ho did HO, a sergeant of volunteers drew his sword and ripped lum open with a blow iu the side, and theu bucked him up beautifully." The testimony of these letters, written in privato confidence, cannot be disputed, and they show to what n horrible ex? tremity Spaiu has gone, aud is no doubt going duily in her war on Cuba. Those things call loudly for avehemout protest from the United States, and they will amply justify, if a protest shall riuss un? heeded, a rosort to direct interference in tho causo of God and humanity. There is not on all tho earth a goverumeut or a people that could condemn tho interpo? sition of forco uudersuch circumstances. UNIFORMITY; IN ELECTING MEMBERS OF CONGRESS.-The Washington correspon? dent of the Now York Herald, iu his de? spatches on Tuesday, says: "Tho Committee of Electious have agreed upou a bill which provides that the day for holding elections for mem? bers of Congress shall bo uniform throughout all tho States. As it will re? quire somo chango in thc laws of severul of tho States to conform to this Act, tho bill provides that it shall not tako effect until the first Tuesday in November, 1872. Tho hill has two objects-first, to insure a full representation of all tho States at the organization of each new Congress on tho 4th of March; and se? cond, to prevent persons from one Stato going into another to colonizo. It is thought that having the congressional elections going on in all tho States on the sumo da}', every district will find enough to do at homo, without going to help their neighbors.*' Of the abandoned ch it rohes in that re? jected mission field, down town New Yorkj ono in Houston street is a ball? room; another iu Franklin street, a mar? ket; a third, in Grand, aud a fourth, in Amity streets, are stables; a fifth, on the East side, is a lager beer garden ; while n sixth, in Broadway, is a theatre. The Emperor Alexander will shortly abdicate in favor 'of his son Alexander, who is twenty-six years of age. The pre? sent Emperor was born in April, 1818.

The annual meeting of tho members of the Ladies' Industrial Association will take place in the Washington Street Chapel, on Thursday, the 16th instant, at 12 o'clock m. It is earnestly desired that there may be a full attendance of the old members, aod that many ethers who have not hitherto connected them? selves with this praiseworthy institution, will now como forward in this, its time of need, and by identifying themselves with it, do what they can for the pros? perity of the association, ami the ame? lioration of those whom it is designed to beuefit. LOVE'S LABOU TO DE LOST.-Thcro ia a paper circulating amoug our citizens to petition the Legislature not to extend tho limits of Columbiu. Wo have no doubt but that this is tho voice of tho whites of Columbia and of a number of the colorod people, viz: that there ia no reason why tho limits of tho city should bo extended. But wo doubt tho efficacy of this paper, and wo regret that such a document should havo been gotten up. In our judgment, it will not have any effect. If party tactics and political wire-pulling have decreed that there shall bo another election in Columbia, the voico of tho people hore will not chango the result. Possibly, thc bill will not pass; but if it does fail, the defeat will not come from this movement of tho citi? zens. In dealing with this Legislature and tho regime that tho majority repre? sent, back-bone and stiff knees and stern resolution and patience will bo found to avail more than any appeals to sense of justice nod propriety. Towurds tho ma? jority of tho present Legislature, there should be no other attitude than that of steady opposition and stern defiance an opposition and a defiance limited only by the law and the situation. No doubt, tho purest motives influence tho signers of this paper referred to, but wc tel] them-this is a case of "Love's Luboi Lost," The following is a copy of the protest, addressed to the members of the Senate and House, and signed by over 500 male residents of Columbia-white as well af colored: We, the undersigned, tho Mayor anti Aldermen of the city of Columbia, asli leave, respectfully, to show: That thej aro informed that a bill has been intro j duced by a member of tho Legislature I from this County, entitled "A bill tc I amend tho Charter of tho City of Co j lu rubia," and proposiug, first, to extend tho limits of the city about two square: to tho North and East of its presen I limits; and secondly, to order a now cloe lion of city officers. Wo respectfully asl that this may not bo done. The city nov, contains four square miles-au area suf? ficient for more than four times its popu? lation, and consequently entailing on itt citizens moro than ordiuary expense. Tho additions proposed consists, in large part, of land vacant and not likely to bc built upon, to any great degree, for manj years, if ever; is undivided in squares, and although, in part, valuable ns farm iug land, is not of sufficient value tc sustain, under tho limited powers of thc city, a taxation sufficient to re-imbnrsc thc necessary increased expenses. Thc city, from its almost complete destruc? tion, fia well as tho great poverty of its citizens, has found great difficulty in sus? taining the necessary government, anti its credit; indeed, hos not yet been able to pay tho interest duo on its bonds. Tho undersigned, therefore, earnestly request that the enlargement proposed equully disadvantageous to tho citizens, ns the inhabitants of the section propos?e to be added; not desired, in tho opinion of tho undersigned, by tho inhabitant: of the section proposed, nor by tho ma jori ty of tho citizens of the city, and r very great majority of the tax-payers be not made. Tho undersigned further show, thal they were elected (tho fairness of which election was undisputed and uncontested] about a year ago, under tho general luv* of tho present Assembly, for tho balance of tho unexpired term, and one full tern thereafter, and that, therefore, their tem of office will not expire for a little more than two years; that they conccivo, anti aro so advised, that under the Constitu? tion and tho laws of tho State, they have rights vested which it should not bo at I tempted to disturb by tho Legislature I that such a proceeding as ordering a neu I election for Mayor and Aldermen before the expiration of the term for which, untler tho law, they were elected, is not desired by tho citizeus, and would bo fi violation of good faith and productivo ol a state of feeling much to be deprecated by every good citizen; nnd tho under j sigued have good reasons to believe thnl j tho trao and only object of this bill is te attempt, through the Legislature, ille? gally to oust the undersigned of theil offices against tho wishes of the citizens, expressed at the ballot-box, and to plaoe the government in the bands of those who are moving, without any prevtoue notice, for the passage of the bill. Thc undersigned, therefore, earnestly protesl against this attempted invasion of theil rights, and respectfully request that thc bill proposed be not made law.

The phosphate bill referred to by a correspondent of the PJBCENIX, a few days ago, came up in the Senate, with a slight amendmont-the addition of the follow? ing names: D. T. Corbin, D. H. Cham? berlain, Reuben Tomlioson, Anson W. Thayer, Timothy Hurley, John Bates, H. Montgomery, Stanley G. Trott, George Sawyer, C. P. Leslie, James P. Low. It is a big thing, but will likely go through. Georgo Peabody made his fortune in the last twenty-five years of his life; but it should be remembered that ho never owned a horse and buggy or a wife. Lucy Stone likens boys to vinegar the more "mother" in them the sharper they nre. Chinese laundrymon have their pre? ferences and dislikes just as much as their competitors of tho other sex. One ont in Iowa vents himself thus: "Printee man shirt wush like d-1; scrubee skin off hands; inkeo do d-1 to olean off; nc waut washeo for printee; charg?e twe dollar dozen; cuss 'em." Mark Twain's gallantry prevents hin from saying that the face of a fortune? teller he recently visited was dirty, anc conveys that impression in this way "Sho had a dark complexion naturally and this effect was heightened by arti ficial aids, which cost her nothing.'' SurrEn TO TIIE UNITED STATES L'os BAND.-The Executive Committee of tb State Agricultural and Mechanical So ciety having tendered a supper to tb Post Baud, as an acknowledgement o their services at the late Fair, it came ol last night, at the Pollock House, unde the persouul superintendence of Mr. T M. Pollock, in his usual happy style Tho table wa? liberally supplied witl good things-fish, flesh, fowl and fluid -solid as well as ornamental. The mern hers of the band enjoyed thcmselve heartily, we doubt not. Tho Comuiittc have done well thus to recognize th services so cheerfully rendered and 6 well done.

DIO Extract from a private letter from Hawaii, Sandwich Islands. ***** Although the eruption is not so violent now, the volcano is a fearful sight to behold. Tho rivers of lava still flow, and the smoke from the crater ascends in awful majesty. During this volcanic upheaval it has been very sickly here. A peculiar sort of low ma? larious fever, which has grown' out of the foul, condensed vapors of the volcano, has prevailed to an alarming extent, and at one time it was feared it would depo? pulate the island. But fortunately, a sea captain, (calling here for supplies,) dis? tributed PLANTATION BITTERS to Jthe suffering, and quick and thorough cures were tho result. Tho news spread like wild-fire. Messrs. Ching-Takin & Co., Commission Merchants, had these Bit? ters for sale. In a short time their office was besieged and their supply exhausted. A steamer was despatohed to San Fran? cisco by order of tho Hospital Depart? ment, and a new and enormous supply obtained as soon as possible. From that moment tho scourgo was stayed. Not another fatal case occurred, and the epi? demic has now entirely disappeared. * * * Is this wonderful remedy known in your city? I hope so, for it is a sure cure for all fevers and miasmatic sick? ness. You may tell yonr friends so for me. * * * * * H. M. C.
