THE OPINIONS OF OUR REPRESEN
TATIVES.

A reporter of the Charleston Nems and
Courier last aeek propounded this ques-
ton to the Senators and Representatives
in the Legislature: "In your opinion
what policy should be pursued by the
Democratic party in South Carolina TO
retain good and honest government, and
at the same time secure free ballot and
a fair count?" The following replies
were received from our immediate Rep
resentatives.
Mr.. E. B. Murray said: $50 far as my
acquaintance and information go we have
had nothing but a fair election this time.
I think, however, as the Constitution re-
quires it, the passage of a registration law
is an imperative duty. It would remove
the appearance of fraud, and correct any
actual fraud, that may exist. The people
of the State should pursue liberal poll
cy towards all classes of citizens and rem
der the government as acceptable to all
as possible, and in this way remove any
inducement upon the part of honest citi-
zens to oppose us. am totally, opposed
to any abandonment of the principles Of
the National Democratic party.
Senator B. F. Crayton said: "The up
country is in possession of beth honest
government and fair elections, but is
willing to adopt any measures which
may afford relief to the low country.
Col. e. NJ. Rucker said: I think the
end can be reached through the present
Democratic organization in this State.
Mr.. R. W. Simpson said: Tho solution
will he partially found in q proper reg
istration act. am opposed to an educa-
tional qualification, but favor requiring
every voter to present his poll tax re.
ceipt at the ballot box, and repeal all
laws enforcing the collection of this tax.
Mr.. II. NJ. Prince said /: don't believe
it can bo reached by registration-that'ss
two-edged weapon. The only way !
see is to re-enact the two-boS law and
separate the State and National elections.
I favor some amendments to the Consti-
tuition, but think they could be made
by legislative action. I'm afraid if they
have constitutional convention we will
try to do too much.

AMERICA TO IRELAND.
"Moncy, Supplies and. Unnecessary, If Men
Ne,U York Herald.

1t is painful to think Of Ireland in re-
bcllion. 1t is for the Gladstone govern
ment to consider carefully all methods of
dealing with Ireland. AS question of
force there could only be one end to an
armed struggle. The power of England
thrown upon Ireland would crush her in
single campaign. Nor can ireland ex-
pect any support from Outside nations,
such as France gave to Italy against Aus
tria, and to America against England in
tho days Of Lafayette and Rochambeau.
Even if there was disposition on the
part of the Continental Nationalitics to
interfere the naval power of England
would make any such attempt madness
Ireland is therefore alone, isolated, hem
med in by seas, with poor population.
the lands untitled, the nation suffering
from famine and from centuries of mis-
government and thriftlessness. Ireland
will have sympathy from the United
States. Money, supplies and, if neccssa-
ry, men will go to her. But public opin-
ion in tho United States can have only a
slight influence upon the British Govern.
ment. The utmost that can bo expected
is money in the manner In which Mr.
Parnell raised it; or, in the event of
another famine, by tho generous contrl-
buttons of our people.

SATISFACTORY, IF TRUE.

The Assistant General Freight Agent OF
the Columbia e. Greenville Railroad was in
Anderson on Tuesday, and in conversation
with some Of our merchants stated that in
the matter of 'freights from the West OF
elsewhere Anderson should not be discrim'
mated against. That we should have every
advantage for the development aid build
ing up our town that they can possibly give
us, and that in the course of few days the
rates of freigl IS to all points on this Road
would be arranged and settled upon. That
while goods from the West were being now
shipped by the way Of Augusta, that the
freight charges would net be higher in con-
sequence, and that the recent advance i'll
freights was due as much to other lines as
their own.
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1880-12-02

The correspondent of the Ne,rs and Cou-
rier, writing from Columbia. under date
of November %, says: "The temper of
the House seems to indicate strongly a
disposition to refer all proposed amend
ments to tn, Constitution to commits
sion to consider and report back their
conclusions to the General Assembly at
it's next session. The Senate is more
equally divided on the subject, but the
majority, it is thought, are in favor of
similar action. A careful canvass of the
members of the General Assembly to-day
showed an unmistakable and earnest de-
termination to close the work of the ses-
sion and adjourn sine die before Christ
mas. A large number of the members
think an adjournment can be reached by
the 18th of December. This will hardly
be practicable consistently with careful
legislation, but an adjournment by the
22d of December seems both practicable
and probable"

A Knoxville, Tennessee, special gives
the following particu'" Of the recent
poisoning in the vicilI Ity of Kingston,
forty miles from Knoxville: Con Thurs
day evening last was celebrated the mar
riage Of joel Hembell, well known in that
County, and Miss Dali, an accomplished
daughter Of Colonel Dahl. at whose resi-
dence about forty invited ladies and gen
tlemen had assembled. Subsequently q
reception was rendered the couple and
extensive arrangements had been pre-
pared for their entertainment. BY some
means in the preparation Of the feast
arsenic was used instead of soda. About
forty persons, Immediately after supper
vas served, exhibited symptoms of sick
ness, and five Of the number have since
died The first victim was Robert Dali,
n brother of the bride; tho next was
little Miss Lowery, an orphan. Mr..
May, of Missouri, and Mr.. Gallahcr, Of
this County, also died on the following
day. To. day another one is added to tho
number. The father of the bride, who
was not expected to live, is reported
better to-day. About thirty other per-
sons who wcre present are reported
seriously ill, number of whom will
probably die. The poisoning is thought
to have been accidental"

A Marine Disaster.

LEGHoRN, November "a.
The steamer Ortigia came in collision
this morning with the French steamer
Oncle Joseph near Spezzia. The Oncle
Joseph was so much injured that she
soon sank. She had three hundred per-
sons on board, only about fifty of whom
were saved. The Ortigia has arrived at
Leghorn, having also been seriously
damaged. An inquiry has been ordered.
SpEzz1A, November 26.-The steamer
Oncle Joseph sank almost Immediately
are known to be drowned and fifty saved
The fate of the other fifty is at present
uncertain. Heartrending scenes follow
ed the collision, as the Oncle Joseph was
wanting in means to save the lives of the
large number on board. Eye witnesses
of the collision say they cannot satisfac-
terily explain the manner and cause of
the occurrence. The passenger list of the
Oncle Joseph shows total of 264 persons
on board, and the sailors numbered SO.
Her cargo consisted of 500 tons of mer-
chandise. At a roll call of the survivors
35 passengers and % sailors only an
swered to their names. The captain also
perished.
LONDON, November 26.-A dispatch to
the Lloyds from Leghorn confirms the
report OF the loss of 250 lives by the col
lision near Spezzia. The Oncle Joseph
was an iron screw steamer of S23 tons
gross, and the Ortigia was Of 1858 tons
burthen.
ROME, November 27.-The first mate of
the steamer Ortigia, which sank the Oncle
Joseph, states that. seeing single mast
headlight about a kilometre ahead, he
deemed it the light of merchantmen,

ported, expecting the merchantmen to do
the same, but the Oncle Joseph STAR
boarded her helm until she saw the Or
tigia bearing down upon her, when she
ported, describing semi-circle and en-
posing her 1anks. The mate of the Or
tigia then ordered her engines to be re-
versed, but it was too late, and the Ortiz
gia's PROV drove inside the Oncle Joseph.
Few of tho sleepers aboard the Oncle
Joseph had time to reach the deck before
the vessel sank.

interest Of State missions was addressed
by DR. Manly and others. s6,50O was re-
ported as having been collected for this
work since July 1st, and collection to
the amount of $3.50 was taken up. The
Convention refused to change the time OF
meeling, and fixed the Corresponding

full discussion arose upon the report, in
which many gentlemen participated.
Resolutions were adopted reaffirming the
obligation of tho bondsmen, authorizing
the treasurer to make compromises in all
cases as his judgment may direct, and
declaring that there appears no way to
abolish free tuition except with the con-
sent Of the bondsmen.
