Hon. A p. Aldrich one Of the most uncompromising
and prominent of South Carolina that
lie convinced Of the Importance Of accepting the Gin

course would be for it TO accept the platform and ad
ourn without reference to the nominations Speaking
OF the necessity OF reform, he says:

the North and West who camOr against the nomination
is TO suppose that the next Presidential election Will be

of honest government. Ii will be struggle Of the hon.

from what quarter IL may Will be az gratefully accepted
1t Is earnestly desired In word corruption mas run

that he owes duty to the State, to his family and 10
himself to exert all his influence TO promote the success
OF that nomination which will most likely secure reform

pOItance at the present time, the particulars
given in another column of an interview with
the Cuban General Ryan will have interest. 1t
seems that the Cuban patriots continue full in
the faith that they will be able to release the
"QUeen Of the Antilles from the sway of the
Spaniards. Msmanagement and divided coun-
sells have served to retard the patriot cause, but
despite al obstacles they have managed to sue
cessfally hold their own against the enormously
prepondersnt Spanish forces put In the field
and on the sea against them. They seem to
feel assured, also, of the sympathy of the Ad-
ministration with their cause, and charge that
Senator Sumner has stood in their way persist
emily and despite his sentimental claim to stand
up Cor suffering humanity everywhere.

The Baltimore american saws that If the ratio
OF republican gains that has been obtained in
Maryland since October 9th keeps up for another
week they will carry the state. The Sixth Con-
gressional District is conceded by the democrats,
and the Fifth isscarcely in doubt. A larger re
publican vote will be polled in the city of Balti-
more than has been done since EN- adaptation
was declared, and inform alton from the ,stern
Shore indicates that the democratic vote there
will fall below its usual figures. In view Of these
facts the republicans of Maryland have consid-
cradle hope OF carrying the state for Grant and
Wilson.

Mr.. Froude has finished his series of lectures
In New York on the relations between England
and Ireland. He has had large and attentive
aud Fences, and the Pcs, says that his lectures
were well worth listening to, both "a contribu-
tons TO history, and a. models OF vigorous
idOmatic and not unpublished English: but that
q more brilliant example of literary Ouixotism
than his visit 20 this country il would be difficult
% find He began his series Of lectures by saw
ng that he had come to America to lay the
'Irsh question" before the bar of the American
public opinion for its decision. This implies
several things on the part of the learned his
tOIian, all Of which show a profound ignOr ance
OF the condition of things in this country. He
evidently believed that Irish discomfort with the
British government was fostered by public
opinion in the United States. He appears t.
have thought that this opinion was a unanimous
one, and he sfirms that he was confident
OF his ability to enlighten and change
t. He was mistaken in each particular.
The only persons in this country who entertain
opinions likely to promote insurrection in Ire
land are the politicians, most of them of the
bsser sort, and they out of no regard for Ire
land, but solely to serve their own selfish pur-
poses; OF the rest of the American people, all
know that Ireland has been dealt hardly with
by the English people, sometimes through
downright injustice and sometimes through
gross mismsn agement, and q very few, perhaps,
have the temerity to believe In some specific
remedy; while, in respect to producing any
special changes in the current OF popular belief,
Mr.. Froude In point Of fact has been listened to
by those who were Of his own way of thinking,
and, therefore, the chief effect has been to con-
firm and solidify notions already prevalent in
the minds of his hearers.

boasts that he possesses an Incompatible army,
and all the elements of adicals, Or
lesnists, Legitimists and Imperialists-are united
upon the necessity of obtaining revenge from
Germany soon practicable. Neither
Prince Bismarck nor Count Andrassy the
Austrian premier, believes that peace wilt con-
tinue, and the meeting of the Emperors at Ber-
lin was due TO desire OH the part of the high
contracting Powers interested TO come to an
understanding upon this subject. Even Servia
claims that she can put 81 900 men in the field,
and while Italy il fOTtifying Monte Mario, on
the Italian side of the Mount Gems Tunnel, to
guard against the French military preparations
at MOdane on the French side of the Alps,
Spain is urging a demand upon England for the
