COLOMBIA, S. C. Thursday Morning, June 2,1870. THB FENIAN FIASCO.-The newspapers generally are having their say about the late Fenian movement, now that what might have brought more serions results to those engaged in it, is over. The New York World trusts that this is the last of these wild and ridiculous at? tempts. It does not blame the Fenians for hatirig.England, botthey are unwise in delivering blows which inflict no harm on tho enemy, and recoil on themselves. Thia expedition has only weakened tho Fenian omiso. It has undermined public respect for tho judgment of the leaders, and' ita mortifying termination will make tho Irish youths very slow to expose themselves, again to, a guidance which lins pro ved SQ JUWRinpetent. Tho New lrork> TW^ine.tbinks tho poor deceived fellows, having got back with little loss, aro not likely to ^ be so deceived again. And yet tho hallucination is kept np of . forwarding recruits, to the frontier, col . looting money, etc. Tho Herald say?, in "tho organization of the Fenian army of invasion, the general rulo was reversed. Instead of baying a heavy body of rank and file and but.few officers, numerically compared, it is said that they had more officers than men, and as the officers re? treated on the approach of tho Canadian militia,. the minority of the ?ghting force Only were left to do tho fighting. . HORRIBLE CALAMITY.-About 4 o'olook yesterday afternoon' our entire commu? nity was startled by the report that a building on King street had f?llen and buried several persons beneath its ruins. Several months ago tho store on the West Bide of King, the fourth door South of Beaufain street, was destroyed * by fire, only the walls and some charred - rafters remaining. A short timo Hinco laborera commenced the work of re? building, and were rapidly progressing. About 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the walls tumbled in with a crash, and almost buried in the mass of timbers and bricks Lewis Perkins, colored, Patrick and Joseph Cul loton, and Jacob Nelson, colored. As soon as tho workmen and those who oolleoted recovered from tho .shock and surprise whioh the fall oc ' oasioned, they rushed in among the debris and brought out those abovo mentioned. Perkins was instantly killed, ',a?d Joseph Cullutpn and Jacob Nelson badly wounded, receiving bruises and outs in all portions of their bodies. Mr. ? Patrick Onlleton was only slightly in? jured. Others of tho workmen woro also slightly wounded. It seemed a matter of impossibility that any of tho workmen employed about the building Could have escaped, and for a long time the impression prevailed that there were several of them dead in the ruins. [Charleston News. WHAT CAN BE DONE WITH TUE BUILD? INGS IN WASHINGTON.-A Western corres? pondent, who is in favor of removing tho national capitol to some point on tho plains between the Mississippi Uiver and the Hooky Mountains, says tho buildings in Washington could be reudored useful. The capitol, he thinks, would make au excellent asylum for de.oayed politicians. Tho treasury building he would appro? priate us u refuge for free love philoso? phers and affinities of both sexes. Tho Patent Office would bo well suited for the support of worn out women's rights women, while the remaining public edifices would como iu very well as sheltering places for the lenders of all the other played out isms of tho country. [New York Herald. Gradual emancipation is to bo tho policy of Spain towards tho negroes, in? stead of tho sudden and total abolition of their servitude. The draft of a law was read by the Colonial Minister to tho Cortes on Saturday, the provisions of which are: that child ron born slaves sinco 18G8 shall be free, and nil those born after tho promulgation of the de? cree shall be unconditionally froo. In tho former ca?o the Government is to in? demnify owners by paying $50 per head. Slaves who havo fonght in tho Spanish service, and all ovor G5 years of ngo, are to bo immediately set free. Thc proposed law ?3 favorably received in thc Cortes. THE INDIANS.-The total number of Indians in tho United States, according to a census made in 18G9 by Commis? sioner Parker, is 378,567. Alaska, Cali? fornia, and the Eastern States claim 100,000 of these, leaving for tho Indian population of the plains but a little over 270,000. Tho tribes now engaged in hos? tilities number about 40,000, of which one-eighth, or 5,000, aro ablo-bodied warriors. A fatal duel occurred in Tcrrobonne parish Louisiana, Monday of lust week. Gcorgo F. Beldon, a brother of tho At? torney-General of the State, was shot and killed in a duel, by tho editor of the Houma Eagle. The quarrel originated botween tho reprosontatives of tho Pa? triot and Eagle. Tho editor of tho Pa? triot refusing, Beiden accepted tho chai longo and took his quarrel, ami was killed. A "Lion Queen," at tho Bowery Thea? tre, Now York, while performing with a couple of puma lions, on Saturday night, was attacked by ono of them and terri? bly bitten on tho throat, shoulder, and arm. She was rescued from tho cago by the stage attendants, who beat the en? raged lioness off with iron bars. Many of tho audience fuinted during tho ex? citement. State Senator James Bears, who was mysteriously shot on Friday night, in Now Orleans, has died of his wounds. To th? Citizens, of Rich la nd. The citizens of Richland, white and colored, irrespective ol .party, but who aro iu tiavor of, economy, rot roc oh m ont and reform, low tasia and a pise, ipa? triotio nnd honest administration of our; State -Government, are requested to meet in their respeotive townships on Saturday, 4th June ins*., and seleot four delegates each to attend a County Con? vention, to bo held at Columbia on the first Monday in June inst., for the pur? pose of appointing delegates to the State Convention, which will assemble on tho 15th inst. REFORMISTS. Mn. EDITOR: We see that Mr. J. E. Ba? con is announced as a candidate for Con? gress, at the next election. We confess that we wore very much astonished to seo any one announced, us we all know, or ought to know, that whoever is selooted as a candidato in opposition to tho Re? publican party, ought to be such a man as mil unite all tho elements of opposi? tion, and one who will ut the same time possess some personal fitness and merit. Wo think it unfortunate that any an? nouncement hos been made, as a candi? date must .bo solooted by yo mo conven? tion of delegates from the various Coun? ties of the Congressional District, and, we take it, that the nomination of Mr. Bacon is morely intended to place him clearly before the Convention aa desiring tho nomination. Mr. Bacon may or may not bo the choice of the Convention. And just hero wo would respectfully oak what kind of n man wo would like to see in Congress. Tho first and great requi? site is knowledge, in the Baconian sense of tho word. We want a man who knows something of tho great wnnts and in? terests of the country. And what are tho great questions that pertain to the welfare of our country and sooiety? They are questions that ro?ate to our industrial aud commercial advancement and im? provement, education, manufactures, agriculture, banking, trade, in ita largest 8eDse, and finance; in other words, we want sagacious business men. Now, Mr. Bacon may know the difference between an action of debt and assumpsit, ho may know all about demurrers, special plead? ing, tho roles and laws of evidence; ho may know the difference botweon mur? der and manslaughter, and botween petit and grand larceny; but we are of opinion that ho knows very little about the great vital interests of tho country, as his at? tention has never been directed to them. These are not the men the peoplo want in Congress. Newberry, Abbeville, and the other Counties want to havo a voice in making the nomination of a candidate. PLAIN TALK. LKT THE CHILDREN ALONE.-These ex? cellent words occur in Dr. Hall's Health by Good Living. We commend them to our readers: Let your children alone when they gather around the family table. It is cruelty to hamper them with manifold rules and regulations about this and that, and the other. As long as their con? duct is harmless as to others, encourage them in their cheerfulness. If they do smack their lips, and their sippings of milk and other drinks can be heard across tho stroet, it does not hurt the street; let thom alone. Whut if they do take thoir soup with tho wrong end of their fork, it. is all tho same to the fork. Let them alone. Suppo o a child docs not sit as straight as a ramrod at the table; suppose a cup or tumbler slips through its little fingers and deluges tho plate of food below, and tho goblet is smashed, and the table? cloth is ruined, do not look a thousand scowls aud thunders, and scare the poor thing to tho bnlanco of its death, for it was scared half to death before it; it "didn't go to do it." Did you never let a glass Blip through your fingers nineo you were grown? Instead of sondiug your child away from the table in anger, if not evou with a threat, for this or any otherlittlo nothing, be as generous as you would to any equal or superior guest, to whom you say, with a moro or less obsequious smile, "It's of no pos 8iblo consequence." That would bethe form of expression even to a stranger guest, and yet to your own child you re? morselessly aud revengefully and angiily mete out a swift punishment, which, for the time, almost breaks its little heart, and belittles you amazingly. Tho proper and moro efficient and moro Christian method of meeting the mishaps and delinquencies and impro? prieties of your children at the table, is either to take no notion of them at the time, or to go further and divert atten* tion from them at tho very instant, if possiblo, or make a kind apology for thom, but afterwards, in an hour or two, or better still, next day, draw the child's attention to the fault, if fault it was, in a friendly and loving manner; point out tho impropriety in some kindly way; show where it was wrong or rudo, and appeal to tho child's self-respect or man? liness. This is tho best way to correct all family errors. Sometimes it may not succeed; sometimes harsh measures may bo required, but try tho deprecating of the kindly method with perfect equa? nimity of mind, and failure will bo of taro occurrence. Tho vital statistics of Ibo city for tho woek ending yesterday, was as follows: Deaths, exclusive of thoso at public in? stitutions, 371; marriages, 108; births, 197; stillborn, ?C; excess of mortality over births, 177, or a death rato of almost double tho ratio of increase of popula? tion.- New York Herald, 29/?.
