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.
