COLUMBIA, S. ff Friday Morning, Jane IO, 1870. Oar Relations to tuc Reform Party-A Xtlberal and Progressive Democracy. In the debates which we have read in connection with the present reform move? ment, expressions have been usod which render proper this declaration on our part. As a DEMOCRATIC JOURNAL, we gave onr assent to the propositions of the Press Conference. We have reed? ed it ~iso Tor the Democratic party to abandon the contest os to the political status ol the colored citizen of the United States. In this, it seems, we did but anticipate the action of the Ohio Demo crecy, whioh bas wisely waived this issue with their opponents and moved to bet? ter and fresher fl ol da of encounter. So, too, as a DEMOCRATIC JOURNAL, we advo? cate tbe movement for reform. As we interpret tbe movement in its integrity, it is a combined effort of all mou, op? posed to the present corrupt regime, for a better administration of our public affairs. It seeks tbe union of Democra? tic reformists and Republican reformists for tho relief of South Carolina in ber extremity. In becoming, in good faith, an advocate for reform, we at least do not sink our valued association with that national organization, which, under the hame of Democracy, bolds to those great principies of government which receive tbe assent of our judgment. We are for reform and for political co? operation with all ready to embark under its banner, but ns before, so now, we stand in general political faith upon the firm ground ot a liberal and progressive Demooracy. The special politics of this journal aro for reform in South Carolina, nnd we invite the co-operation of all mon dis? posed to seek the same end. Tho gene? ral politics of this journal are for a PRO? GRESSIVE DEMOCRACY, and INDUSTRIAL PROGRESS. In our special and general politics, we aro for the acknowledgment of the rights now secured to colored men by law-as the best solution of a vexed question. ? ?> ? i DIPLOMATIC RUMOR.-Strange rumors are circulating among the diplomatic cir? cles of Europe. One of them is, that the King of Prussia aims at being crowned Emperor of North Germany; and another that Louis Napoleon, fretting under tho unstable tenure of his office, and anxious to create a diversion, meditates a move on Belgium or on the Bhine, for the pur? pose of checking Prussian ambition. It is likely that the tranquility of Europe will not be disturbed for some timo to come; but while the present incumbeut remains on the French throne, and is haunted by his evil conscience aud goad? ed on by his fears, there is no moral guarantees for the preservation of peace. The alliance botween Bussia and Egypt is no secret to attentive observers of Eastern affairs. The Khedive would never have displayed so much pluck if he had not been backed up by Russia, and if he had not also somo reason to count upon the support of France. Bus? sia is not likely to recede from her tradi? tional policy, and the Egyptian conflict affords a fine opportunity, whioh the Emperor Alexander seems inclined to improve. Great Britain, with ber com? plications with the United States aud in Ireland, and with the Bussian rivalry for Asiatic supremacy, is, for the present, in a most perplexing condition, which is exceedingly encouraging to the Russian, French and Egyptian enterprises. THE IBISII LAND BILL.--The Irish land bill has passed the Commons, and will probably pass tho Lords. It will afford great relief to tho poor tenantry of that unhappy island. It saves them from exorbitant rents, which the land? lords have been accustomed to impose whenever it seemed possible for tho tenants to pay them and not to starve to death. It also saves them against tho power of tho landlords of annulling leases without a year's notice. It is, so far as it goes, a land reform for Ireland. It is but tho commencement of land re? form ou a moro extended scale. THE FENIANS.-Secretary Fish has re? ceived a congratulatory note from Mr. Thornton, the British Miuistor, in refer? ence to the strict maintenance of neu? trality by this Government. Attorney- ! General Hoar says tho rigor of tho law will be meted out to O'Neil and the other captured Fenian leaders, but tho admi? nistration is disposed to be lenient to? wards the privates, who are considered dupes. Before tho close of tho present year Milwaukee will bo tho eastern terminus of ovor two thousand milos of railway. A few years ago Milwaukee stood on tho western verge of civilization. A violont enrthqaako has visited tho State of Oaxacas, in Mexico, killing 103 people and wounding many others. The earthquakes extended to tho mines, where people were also killed. DELEGATES APPOINTED FROM EDQB ?IELD,-At the public meeting held in Edgefield to nominate delegates to the Jane Convention, 8 colored and 7 white delegates were appointed. The A tiver User saya : The speeches made by Gen. Butler, Maj. Gary, Maj. Bacon and Mr. You man8, on this occasion, were, ono and all, able, honest, and truthful, and all in the same strain and to the same end, viz. thnt of opening the eyes of the ne? groes to their true interests, to thc sel? fishness, knavery and dissimulation of the great mass of tho radical party of the State, and to the honesty and good intentions of tho reform party. Gon. Gary, who has taken no part in politics siuco the war, appeared only after re? peated calls from the meeting. He de? clared himself an uncompromising old school Democrat, totally opposed to ac? quiescing, only so far as we are absolute? ly obliged, in either the 13th, 14th, or 15th amendments, totally opposed to ne? gro suffrage, and willing to wait and suf? fer until dooms-day, rather than swerve from the pure dootrinea of the Demo? cratic party. Mr. P. A. Eichelberger, the leading radical of this seotion, was present at the mooting-or rather banging upou its outskirts-and was called upon loudly for bis views, with many assurances pre? viously given, that respect, toleration, and fair-play, should be tho order of the day. Mr. Eichelberger, however, did not respond. He aud certain of his agenta and myrmidoms wero working liko beavers in the after part of tho day, to undo tho work of tb > morning's speeches. Aud now Edgefield, having pu! .icrself among the ranks of those moving for a reform in the Government, can only hope that tho wise action of the Conven? tion will bo productive of such Reform. In anticipation of a war, tho European Governments are buying up all tho bread stuffs in tho Now York market. A cor? respondent of the New York Courier Journal says : War iu tho East of Europe is among the immediate probabilities of tho Sum? mer. Bnssia is again regarded as nu ag? gressor by tho Western Bowers, and it is believed that Prussia this tirao will join France in preventing tho Czar from deal? ing a death-blow to Turkey. It is evi? dent that the Egyptian Viceroy's prepar? ations for war ngainst Turkey aro openly encouraged and aided by Russia, and the Crimean war may have to bo fought over again to keep the Czar out of Constanti? nople. Henry Baync, the negro shot in tho Macon guard house, ou Sunday night, while attempting to escape, had just been arrested on Saturday, charged with gen? eral larceny. Alargo amount of stolen goods were recovered, among them a lino horse, bridle and saddle, and a gold watch worth 8200. At tho timo of his arrest, ho was running a plantation at station No. 1, on the South-westeru Bail road, and had several bands employed, whose wages he paid out of his stealings. Just before be died, ho proposed to tell, if raised up, where he bad a valise con? cealed containing 8500. When raised up, his speech failed him, and he ex? pired almost immediately. 4) ?-? DESTRUCTIVE HAIL STORM.-Wo regret to learn that, on the 3d iustaut, a de? structivo hail storm xisited that portion of Bickens County, North of tho Court House. Tho crops on the plantations of James E., John, and Mrs. Hagood, and James Griffin were destroyed. Others in tho neighborhood also suffered se? verely. On the places above named, out? houses, fences, fruit trees, Are., were blown down. Where wheat, cotton, rye, Arc, weregrowing, corn hasbceu planted. Hail stones fell as large as ben eggs, and to the depth of eighteen inches. On tho Otb, there was plenty of hail in tho rifts and washes.-Keowee Courier. AN EMBRYO SCHEME,-Weare told that a company has been formed at Washing? ton, to establish a settlement on tho Northern coast of Mexico, aud its agent has been nominated Cousul at Magdalen. They hope that tho Mexican Commis? sion will recommend the annexation of Northern Mexico and Sonora to the Uuitcd States in payment of tho claims due to American citizens. Caleb Gush? ing, Gen. Butler and other wide-awake lawyers aro said to have their eyes, if not their bauds, ou this scheme. THE AIR-LINE BAILROAD.-The Char lotto papers announce that Mr. P. P. Dickinson, of New York, has taken tho entiro contract for the construction of thc [Air-Lino Bailroad from Atlanta to Charlotte, and proposes to let sub-cou tracts for sections to parties along tho lino of the road. He advertises for pro? posals for tho grading, masonry and bridging of sixty miles of the road ex? tending from Charlotte to Spnrtanburg, on which work will bc commenced im? mediately. Dr. Mary Walker lectured at Brenham, Texas, to a select audience, and took oc? casion to say that before long tho whito women of Texas would think nothing of marrying negroes, owing to tho "social development." Thnro was a social de? velopment thero, immediately, some of tho ladies interviewing tho lecturess, which frightened her HO thnt she "pulled fortall timber," to uso a Texas expres? sion. They say|you couldu't have seen the Doc's coat-tail for tho dust she kicked up with her long heels. She didn't stay to argue that point much. A Sacramento woman recently stabbed ber husband fatally, through jealousy. A crowd, including the coroner and po? lice, gathered around tho corner in such numbers that the side-walk gave way, and pitched tho whole assembly iuto a cellar, breaking ono man's leg and injuriug several. The corpse foll in tho middle of the struggling mass, A despatch from Borne, dated Jane 3, is as follows: After a long and earnest debate in the (Ecumenical Council, to? day, it was decided that the dogma of infallibility shall be proclaimed on the 26th day of tho present month, in honor of the feast of St. Peter. Extensive preparation? are being made to celebrate the occasion, and it is said the display of pomp and pageantry will surpass any de? monstration of tbe kind ever witnessed in Europe. Advices from Hiys City, Kansas, con? tain the announcement of an attack by Indians on a mail station, on Bear Creek, between Camp Supply and Hays City, in which two soldiers wore killed and a sergennt wounded. At a point be? low the station, a Mexican servant had beeu killed and sixty mules run off. A female interpreter reported at Camp Supply a large number of Arapahoes and Cheyennos on the war-path. HURRYING ur THE MATTER.-About the fastest time ou record, wo think, in tho matrimonial line, was made at Sum? merville, on Sunday last. A gentleman met a lady, at 10 a. m. on that day, for the first time, was introduced to her, be? came smitten, proposed, was accepted, and the couple wore married at 4 p. m. Neither of tho "happy pair" had seen the other before. After the knot wan tied, they took tho np-train and departed Chicago-ward.-Charleston Republican. A SAD CASK OF DROWNING.-Charles Russell, a resident of North Nashville, drove his borso and express wagon into the river, opposite thc wharf, getting into deep water. Ho endeavored to extri? cate himself, but in doing so, he lost his lifo. Tho horse was also drowned and the wagon lost. Bussell cried ,for help, but sunk before it could be extended to him. Ho leaves a wifo and two children. SUDDEN DEATH.-On Friday morning last a colored man, by tbe name of Ed? mond Boyd, living and working on the plantation of Mr. Carson Warren, died very suddenly of apoplexy. He was a good man nod a fuit hf ni worker, aud had beon in perfect heaith up to tho moment of his death.-Edge field Advertiser. The editor of tho Hancock (Kentucky) Messenger, in a farewell address in his expiring journal, regrets thnt ho he '!has not had tho pleasure of writing the obi? tuary of several of the miserable skin? flints of tho towu." This is tho bitter? ness of impecuntcsity. Tho Supremo Couucil of Masons of tho United States havo established an office in Washington, D. C., of which Dr. A. G. Mackey has been selected to tnke charge. Tho doctor left for Washington on Sunday last, to make preparations for the removal of his family thither. A train ou the Choraw and Darlington lluilroad, near Florence, on last Satur dajr, capsized an ox and cart, with the man who was steering tho steer, making kindling wood of the cart, and butcher's meat of the ox, but, strange to say, leav? ing tho mau uniujured. Wm. Vanderbilt, Vice-president, and somo directors of tho New York Central Railroad, ran au express train last week from Rochester to Syracuse, 81 miles, in GI minutes-tho fastest time, it is said, ever mado iu America. Bev. Mr. Curley, of Mantla, New York, who, last winter, couldn't seo how a Democrat could bo a Christinn, was, one night last week, caught flagrante delicti with a widow belonging to his congrega? tion. He has absconded. Two brothers, named Mueller, j um pee to the ground-a distance of sevonty-?v? feet-from a burning building in St, Paul, and, strange to say, wero nol killed, although they received serious injuries. In the desert of Alacamo, Chili, ar iron meteorite, weighing 105 pounds, was recently picked up. It has found iti way to Vienna, having been bought fo; the Imperial Cabinet of Miuerals. Onl] ono larger than this lins ever been found Jerrold said one day ho would rnnko i pun upon anything his friends would pu to him. A friend asked him whether he could pun upon the signs of the zodiac to whioh he promptly replied, "B^ Gemini, I Cancer." Tho Richmond artist, Elder, has re ceivod from England au order for a bat tie-piece, which will cost 82,000. Hi: fame has crossed the waters, and is bring ing back profit to him.

May 22 After a verdict had been rendered in a late trial in Austin County, Texas, the Judge addressed the jury in this way: "By your verdict, yoa have said the accused is guilty of no crime. Your ver? dict being contrary to law, contrary to the evidence, and contrary to tho charge of the Court, the Court disapproves of your action in the strongest possible manner. It is by such verdicts ns this upon the part of petit jurors, that Texas has been brought into disrepute among the other States of this Union."
