An HnCendiayy speech.

LONDON, May 17.-ln n speech at a
land meeting at Valleyroan on Sunday
last, Mr. Michael Brennan said that a
year hence any reformer who proposed
to compensate landlords would be
laughed off the platform. He said
"Surely the people will not forsake the
cause of the Land League for such a
miserable measure as the Land bill. F"
he thought the time had come when
from one end to the other of Ireland a
general strike should be proclaimed
against all rent until the land question
is settled on just principles.
The anti-siavery movement in Amer
ica, he said, commenced by offers of
compensation to the slave-owners, but
slavery was washed away in blood,
and he advised Irish landlords not to
shut their eyes to the history of the
world. He thought the cry recently
raised in some parts Of Europe of "Land
and Liberty" would be found to be the
rallying cry of the Irish race the world
over. They must not waste time in the
discussion of tho details of the Land
Bill, but must make the country hotter
make it impossible for landlords, as
sisted by police and soldiers, to collect
rents.

Storm in Charleston.

On Saturday, one Of The most terri
tic storms ragged i'll Charleston that
has been known for Il number OF
years. White Point Garden was
completely submerged, and the Bat
terry broken by the power OF the surf
in several places. Roofs were carried
away from some of the houses, and
trees and fences, ga .cs and window
shuttcrsbrohcn. OnSu,i,a Island q
number Of houses were undermined
from the action Of the wind and water
aud left i'll dangerous condition.
But the most serious and melancholy
incident Of he storm was the drown-
ing of Mr.. Thomas Z. Lcscsnc, the
youngest son Of Chancellor Lescsne,
Off the East Battery. lie was the
hook keeper at the Hydraulic Cotton
Press, and, after paying Off his hands
between six and seven O'clock on
Saturday evening, he went down to
the Battery in company with some
friends TO witness the effects OF the
storm. After getting there it was
proposed among the young men to
os,'N@ a. .'>1t bsto'' VII tllC pttI vi
Battery by allowing the waves and
spray to dash over them. This amusc-
ment'was indulycsl III a long time,
when suddenly it was noticed that
young Lescsne was missing. Upon
examination, it wss found that he
was struggling i'll the water below,
having evidently fallen from The rail
ings Of the Battery. His companions
Immediately procured Il rope and e,:-
dcavered to save lin, but to no Lur
pose. In the lierccncss Of the storm
and darkness OF the night which had
now approached, lie could not be 81 III
and was soon lost and drowned in
the waters. He was promising
young man, and the affair has east
gloom over the whole community.
Several other persons were report
cd rs drowned on the Islands around
til, city. The storm has indeed been
II severe one to life and property.

BE Square,.

We don't believe that word is
necessary to our farmers upon the
Importance Of manfully and prompt
ly meeting their obligations to the
merchants who have been assisting
them in their time of need. Any
other course would destroy the credit
Of the farmer, would cmbarrass the
merchant and take AWAY from him
the ability to help in the future: and
engulf the country in financial and
business ruin. We know the far
mers have had disastrous time and
we deeply sympathize with them, but
the only way to do is to be honest
and square. Show by your actions
that you deserve help in the future.
Upon the colorcd people especially
who have obtained advances in larger
numbers, we would impress this duty.
BY every man coming up and meet
ing his obligations man to man,
whether between farmers, merchants,
mechanics or professional men, and
by the exercise OF proper economy,
we will be able to weather the storm
and come out all right in the near
future.

TIc Storm Elsewhere.

The serious consequences, both to
ife and property, from the storm thai
has just passed have been create
than usual.
In Savannah the loss OF property is
estimated ut a half million of dollurs
Several houses and church stccplcs
have blown down, and number of
persons have been drowned or killed.
A house on the Savannah river near
the city was swept into the river and
all the inmates pcrishcd. Great de.
struction has resulted from the level
ing Of negro huts on the rice planta-
tions. On Tybce Island nearly every
house was greatly damaged or blown
down. One house was blown down
and caught attire, destroying most Of
the inmates. At Port Royal and
