JOHN P. COFFIN, Editor and Manager. R COFFIN. * Associate Editor. FLORENCE. S. C.. THURSDAY EVENING DEC. 19 1805. GREAT BRITIAN VS. THE UNITED 8TAIES. The greatest iuterest is awak- eued on the Venezuela!! qnestioa by all on this side of the water ap plauding the President and his message, while England is just as vigorous in denouncing and up braiding them. The President shows himself in,earnest in the matter and England will have to submit or be forced to fight for what she contends are her rights. Both houses of Congress are in sympathy and active accord with President Cleveland, and the work of the Senate yesterday consisted in a large measure in introducing bills providing for the expenses of carrying on the war if that emer gency should arise. A bill was introduced by Mr. Chandler pro viding for an appropriation of $100,000,000 for au increase in the national armament, and the ques tion of equipping the old Consti tution for service was freely dis cussed. The whole country is in a state of intense interest and sup pressed excitement awaiting the outcome. The European press makes light of the message in most cases and regard it, or say they regard it, as au election scheme as it is nearing the time, but all seem to think it a mean ingless threat and are not dis turbed by it they say. They will find themselves mistaken if indi cations amount to anything, for this country is undoubtedly in earnest, and when the United States is in earnest about any thing others have to be too, as England ought to know by expe rience. The war talk has had a depressing effect on the stock mar kets, accentuated by the expected further shioments of gold. The same effect was produced in for eign markets. Yesterday was a big day in At lanta for the school children. A float representing an arctic grotto bearing Santa Claus was followed bv children from fifteen public schools, numbering about three hundred children. The exercises at the auditorium consisted partly of the distribution of presents to the orphan children. INSPECTING ON HORSEBACK. Tho Editor of The Southern Real Estate and Financial Journal Ar rives Here. About 3 o’clock yesterday after noon a lone horseman, mounted on a small calico Texas pony, rode serenely into Columbia, hauled up at the Grand Central hotel, and took quarters there. It was Mr. John P. Coffin, the editor of the Southern Real Es tate and Financial Journal, who left Florence on Wednesday last to make a trip on horseback to the Atlanta exposition, in order that he might make a careful examina tion of the country, and note its character and possibilities for de velopment in industrial, manu facturing and agricultural lines. Mr. Coffin proposes to write an ex tensive article on these lines when he has completed his trip. His journal circulates largely among those people who are seeking in vestments in southern lands, and good will doubtless come from his tour. Mr. Coffin says his trip thus far has been a very pleasant one in all respects, and he has seen much of great interest to the outside world. He encountered some delay in get ting across the Wateree river. Last Monday and Tuesday he devoted to an inspection of the Aycock farms around Wedgefield, and in looking into the character of the soil, etc., in the historic old States- burg region. He crossed the old Garner’s Ferry in getting to Columbia. From this place Mr. Coffin goes via Newberry, and thence via Elberton, Ga., over the most direct route to Atlanta. He says he has long desired to make this trip, and expects to furnish th® outside world much informa tion that it has never had. He expects to remain in Colum bia through Friday, and will be an interested listener at the Congaree navigation meeting on that even ing. He proposes to give Colum bia considererable space in the ar ticle he will write of the trip. The pony Mr. Coffin is riding is a little 600 pounder of the red and white calico style—a meek and gen tle little fellow of the enduring kind. Thus far he has stood the trip excellently.—Columbia State. See that lovely Xmas, tree in Gregg & Lynch’s window.
