*' :x Savannah News and Herald. BY S. W. MA80N. .SAMUEL W. MASON AV. T. THOMPSON Associate Editor. Official Paper of the City. LARB£ST Cl'MdlATIOR IB THE CITY AMD COURTT ^ IHIKSOAY, MAY 10. 1S60. DBSTITTTION AND SUFFERING IN THE - SOUTH. If is stated by the Baltimore Son that re ports from many quarters of ilie South reach that city of destitution and suffering among ah classes of the population. These reports, it states also, are received not only through private parties and the newspaper press, but through the military and Bureau agents of the Government, all ot wbifihgive the ope gen eral Lie* of wide-spread v^snt, poverty aud wretchedness. In most inStfinces (he < winter has exhausted the scanty supplies which bad been laid up, and now when smiling spring has cotne, thousands who are unable, from want of present subsistence, to sow and labor for the autumnal harvest, find themselves stared in the face by grim starvation. In Arkansas, particularly, the people are repre sented to be suffering greatly from absolute want of food, and the destitutioh’ issaid to be confined almost entirely to die white .popula tion. It is also stated that without Govern ment aid, between thirty and lorty thousand inhabitants ot the State wonld actually per ish from starvation. In North Alabama tbe cries of distress, and repogts of helpless men, women and childfoe suffering for bread, are so terrible, says the same paper, a3 actually to stagger belief were they not vouched for by the incontestable authority of such men as R. M. Patton, the Governor of Alabama, George H. Thomas, Major Gen eral United States army, and others equally well kuowu and reliable, who are publishing facts and^nakiog appeals of the most stirring character for aid aud sustenance from the generous and zealous in good works. In South Carolina, too, famine stares industry in the face, and threatens to paralyze energy. to such an extent as to evoke the most urgent appeals for help. The Assistant Com missioner for the Freedmen’s Bureau, Gen. R. R. Scott, declares that the appalling fact is every day more and more apparent that itf many instauccs planters will be compelled to abandon tbe idea of making a crop for want of provisions to feed the laborers or means to purchase the same,” abd antici pates unless aid is rendered Ibe result will be that “thousands ot treedmen will be turned loose upon the country, destitute of tbe means of subsistence.” In Georgia and Florida the condition of affairs is not so de plorable, yet, in these States there is great scarcity of meat and many of the planters ale doubtful of their ability to weather the storm without some pecuniary assistance in the shape of small loans secured by mort gages on estates and liens on crops. By Telegraph. the radicals disconcerted. That the Radical leaders in Congress have been foiled by tbe President we think is clearly shown by the omission of the Recon struction Committee to embrace in their late reconstruction propositions, the favorite scheme of forcing the South to confer the elective franchise upon the negro; and the indications are, says a Radical journal, usually well informed, that the plan now before Con gress will be defeated. The sensible people of the North are beginning to see the dan gerous fascination that was holding their foolhardy politicians to their desperate strug gle for unlimited power, in time, it i3 to be hoped, to warn them of their perils, and bid them desist. The question now is, vail they continue to heed the suggestions of prudence, or will they again attempt to pursue the syren that has led them to the very precipice overhanging the vortex of national ruin and national disgrace? We think we can dis cover- in late movements, a disposition on the part of many of the Republicans in Congress to move as rapidly as self respect will allow them, to the adoption of the President’s policy. They seem to be now racking their brains to see how they can devise and adopt some reconstruction policy that shall fully reach the end for' which the President has been striving, and which, at one time, they were so determined to defeat. We are not surprised at this uneasiness. When the Pre sident toid them that the country must be restored constitutionally, on the broad basis of equal rights, and that if it could not be done in any other way, it should be submit ted to the people, they then discovered that the rights of humanity could not be sacrificed without a struggle, and they also saw that the contest was to be between that power in this country behind the throne, the people, and a cabal of politicians. Reflection has taught them that the contest is an unequal one; and it is not at all improbable that some of the Radicals in Congress will yet assist the President carrying out a just reconstruc tion, and will show some touches of magnani mity and some little readiness to recognise- the principles of just and generous statesman ship. Up to the time when they’jweie suddenly checked by the firmness of Andrew John son the radicals had bo fixed policy and no plans had been submitted, except such as were tending directly to centralization, and the perpetuation of power, although it should cost every man in the South every right and privilege which the Constitution once gave him. They were willing to commit the hein ous crime of destroying Jill the guarantees by which the Constitution pledges republi can government to all the States, for no other purpose than to retain power. But, thanks to the powers that control mind and matter, men are sometimes caused to stop and think. Even the Star Chamber Joint Committee are showing some signs of .turning back iu their mad career. Indications are beginning to appear that the President’s policy may yet be adopted and carried out, securing a complete and lasting triumph of democratic principles, and future peace and prosperity. What every patriotic and conservative man North, and South wants to see, is the admission ol repre- resented, aiiiTthe adoption ot such laws as shall vindicate the rights of all <;l»aico ot American, citizens. THE eng lush reform bill. Liverpool dates at New York to the 28th ult., furnish tbe intelligence that the new English Reform bill has passed the House of Commons by a majority of only five votes. This is too smill a majority to ensure its pass ing the House of Lords in the face of the op position of the conservative party in that as sembly. To obtain the votes of a majority of the Peers for a measure obnoxious to them, a majority is requisite iu the House of Commons of between twenty and thirty. This is the result of experience. Our read ers will recollect that portion of British his tory when the Reform bill of 1832 was passed through the great influence of Earl Grey and Lord Brougham, in opposition to both the Tories ot the House of Lords, and the per sonal wishes of the then monarch William the Fourth. The above noblemen, in an interview with that Monarch,' urged the' necessity of a creation of Peers to ob tain a majority in favor of a measure that had been adopted by a large majority in the House of Commons. Thiirlow, tbe Lord Chancellor, a Jbigoted tory, was opposed to the measure. Ife is, ex officio, the keeper of the King’s conscience, but the influence of Lords Grey and Brougham was paramount, aud-they succeeded in bringing the King over to their side who threatened the House of Lords to add to the number of Peers, un less they sanctioned the bill. This had the desired effect. . The refractory Lords most have conceived it to be a less evil to pass a bill of tbe character ot that adopted by tbe House of Commons than to receive such an acces sion to the Peerage as was required to pass the bill. There was at the time a great clam or by the Tory press against what was al ieged to be a gross violation ol the British constitution—adding to the House of Lords to carry a favorite measure of tbe govern ment—overlooking the fact th&t the younger Pitt, when minister, added to the Peerage a forger number than any previous Minister. This resource, however, * will not avail the present Whig ministry on account of the small majority which they have obtained for a measure on Which they have staked their existence The result i;i»„i„ he? He »lewd one million of citiesnt, male and fe- existence. 1 ne result is likely to be a disso- ma ie-Ganl and GsuUusses-snd than ha sold another lutton of the ministry, to be followed by an appeal to the country, in which case the conservative party will obtain the victory and Parliamentary reform will be indefinitely postponed. • The Anniversary of Stonewall Jack- son’s Death.—To-day, the 10th of May, is the anniversary of the death of the Christian warrior aud chieftain.

The following call for a public meeting, which waa take place yesterday, appears In the Columbia papers; Regarding it important to the truth and justice of history that the circumstances attending the destruc tion of Columbia in February, 1865, should be fully aud impartially investigated, and the evidence in rela tion thereto collected and perpetuated, while tbe facts aro still fresh in the memory of witnesses, we respect fully invite the citizens Of-Columbia; and of Richland District to meet at Gikbea' Hall, on Wednesday next, at 12 o'clock M., to consider and adopt measures to that end.

Tee Columbia Carolinian, commenting upon this movement, says: ‘ ‘By the blessing of God, the issue has at last been publicly made. We can now tell the story of our wrongs; and there may go forth to the world In an official shape the aeul-stfrrlng narrative that shall do justice to a brave soldier, justice to our former army, justice to ourselves,and justice to history—a narrative too, that will fix the crime on the man who allowed, if he did not authortaflUt*ycw'CittRL.And-°>afk Urn General William Tooumpseh Sherman. ■"me testimony that will soon be given to the coun try will come from the most respected citizens of Co lumbia, and when necessary it will be endorsed by thousands.

Wo have been denied a hearing by Congress, but we have the Great People for a tribunal, and to them we now appeal. Tbe issue is made not by us. We stand upon the defen sive. Let us do our duty, tell the tall story of our Wrongs, brand their, author with the infamy he de serves, and history will do the rest in illustrating our sufferings, and perpetuating the memery of one who, whatever may be his merits gs a soldier, has lost all claim to the title of man.” The Columbia Phenix has the following : “We have already adverted to the public meeting to be held to-morrow. The “truth ot history” must be vindicated. Wc earnestly urge that the whole people of our city should be present on the occasion, and we suggest that business men shut up their stores, and mechanics their workshops, during the hour or two this meeting will occupy.
