CoLUMB?A, S. C., February 19.
Too Republican State Convention, held for
the election of delegates to represent the
State In the National Republican Convention
which meets In Philadelphia.In June, assem?
bled today, and was called to order at 5.25 P.
H. by Lieutenant-Governor Banaler. The
floor, the platform and the lobby were crowded
with'delegates and lobby members, the whole
forming a chattering, turbulent mass, In
which the colored element, of coarse, largely
predominated. Banaler explained the objects
ol the convention by reading a written speech,
irjhw h Ich he'advised the election of six dele?
gates at large, and two from each of the lour
-Congressional districts, wita fourteen alter
. nates.
5 A heated and vtolent debate followed, the
bone of contention being the temporary chair?
manship. Lee nominated Congressman El?
liott Jones nominated R. H. Gleaves, of Beau?
fort; Richardson nominated Speaker Moses,
who declined. Jones declared that a ring bad
been formed to send eleven white men and
three colored men to Philadelphia, who were
to atop, on the way, at Washington, Bee
President Grant, and demand more ap
pointments here, or refuse to support
Grant In the National Convention. This dec- '.
taxation caused a tremendous sensation. For :
two hours longer the war of words continued, \
the debate taking the widest scope, and the '
delegates indulging in the bltterst personal
abuse. Banaler vainly airove to preserve.some
semblance of order. Whipper nominated B. !
E.Cain, but Speaker Moses was renominated ?
In spite of his previous refusal, and waa elect- (
ed by acclamation amid loud applause.
Speaker Moses when escorted to the chair j,
returned thanks for the honor done him, and L
pointed ont the gravity ol the Hut; which the (
the delegates' were assembled to discharge. ?
He said , that the Republican party at home (
was united, but there were men in the conn- l
ell of tb? nailon who had proved un fal thru l to (
their trust. The delegates most, he said, Hell
President Grant that he had listened too long
to certain representatives of this State in the ]
Senate. The speech was received with ap?
plause.
ft. J: McKinlay and T. K. Sasportas were I j
elected temporary secretaries, and a commit- j
tee on credentials were appointedvconsisting
of Jones, Sheriff Mackey, Hoyne, Smalls, :

The Washington correspondent1 of the Cin?

couplea.who flock to the Capital to enjoy their ?
honeymoons. Be says:
There must be some undiscovered magnet i!
which bringa so many happy pairs to Washing?
ton. They flourish in such numbers in no
other city, but the secret has net been discov?
ered. Yo? meet them ?very where, and at ali
hours-no, not at all hours, unless you take
your breakfast very late. It you go down to
jour break last m the hotel, say half-past ten
or eleven, you will se? a perfect school, or
flock, or drove of them. There they sit at the lit?
tle round tables allover the room, and they took
very pretty-I mean the brides,of course, for the
men. great sheepish fellows, are not worth
looking at. There they sir, lb trie properest
kind of attitude; they would not have you lor
the world think they were at that very mo?
ment the happiest girls on earth. Their dress
- ls of the properest kind-a subdued or neutral
shade, trimmed with velvet and fringe or em?
broidery ; a dainty little hat, with a bow or rib?
bon, a patch of velvet, a plume, it shred of
lace, and a bright flower trying to hide among ,
them all, even as she is trying to hide the ,
blushes that come and go on her round i
Cheeks. i
The little doves always come to breakfast In
their hats, and carry their little coats and muffs
and gloves in their little hands. This ls the 1
style, lair girls, it you have any such thing in ]

over the letters he used to write her all day i
long, and not go out ot the hotel at all; but it
Is the style to go down with hat on aafl all
things ready.
It ts very amusing to watch these people at
the hotel. They come to every meal-break?
fast, lunch, dinner and supper. At breakfast
they look verypretty. at lunch so-so, at din?
ner they are resplendent, and at supper pale
and tired. You see them at their best at din?

wrinkles in their new dresses. Yesterday
the pretty bride went to dinner in biacK Mik

COLUMBIA, S. C., February 19.
The special committee on the bill to make

ficiencies in previous appropriations amount
to $950,000, and that the delinquent taxes, in
the last three years, amount to $1,200,000.
The present embarrassed condition of the

levy and collect a sufficient amount In past
years; and the neglect of the Legislature in
past years to provide annually for deficiencies
in the revenue now voakes greatly Increased

and that the Interest required ls $719,691 54.

THE ENGLISH STRIKES.-The latest English
papers announce the termination of the strike
of four thousand colliers at Codnor, In Derby?
shire. An advance of eight cents per long ton
of twenty-five hundred weight of one hundred
and twenty pounds bad been made, but as
subsequently wages were paid on a basis of
twenty-five hundred weight of one hundred
and twelve pounds, the employers proposed
taking off four ;c^tc a ton. This proposition
was rejected, and the men struck. After a
cessation of work for a week, the dispute was
settled by an agreement to al ow a reduction
of two cents a ton. The joiners of Newcastle,
after a prolonged strike of ten months, have
resumed work, having obtained their demand
of $6 72 lor fifty hours of work per week. The
Operative Stonemasons' Society, of London,
have demanded an increase of wages from
Bixieen to eighteen cents per hour, and a re?
duction of the period of labor to fifty-one hours
a week. The>e terms have not been accepted
by the employers on the ground that other
building trades have just settled upon the fifty
four hours a week as the limit, and that lt
would be almost an impossibility for masons
to come and go at different hours from brick?
layers and other men ' on a building. The
miners of North Staffordshire, ten thousand in
number, threaten a general strike to reduce
the working day to eight hoare.
A ROMANCE OF CRIME.
THE STRANGE STORY OF CHRISTINA
EDMUNDS.
Her ltove, Her Jealousy and Her
. Crime-The Trial at the Old Bailey- [
Extraordinary Scene after the Con.
?letton.
We have had another most remarkable and
sensational trial at the Old Balley, writes the
London correspondent of the New York
World under date of the 17th ultimo, result?
ing, as did that of the Rev. Mr. Watson for
the murder of his wife, In a sentence of death.
But in this case the criminal was a lady : a I
lady of mean?, refinement and some coasid-1
erable personal attractions.
Last summer this lady, Miss Christina j
Edmunds, was living with her widowed mother
at Brighton, where they had resided for some
years. The family bad been in many respects
an unfortunate one. The father of Miss
Edmunds died In a lunatic asylum; ber sister
suffered from hysteria and died at an early age;
her grandfather on her mother's side died in a
flt at the age of forty-three, and suffered from
dementia many years before his death; her
cousin on her mother's side was an imbe?
cile, and Miss Edmunds herself had suffered
from hysteria, had been partially paralyzed,
and occasionally walked In her sleep. Some
month's ago, by an unhappy late, Miss
Edmunds lormed the acquaintance of one Dr.
Beard, a physician of Brighton. Dr. Beard ls
married, but Miss Edmunds conceived for bim
a criminal passion. She claims now that he
seduced her, and at this moment she is preg?
nant by bim. Be this as lt may, she came io
believe that Mrs. Beard stood in her way, and
she seems to have resolved to remove her from
the way. She called one day upon Mrs. Beard
and while sliting with her took from her pocket
a bon-bonbox, and from the box a chocolate
bon-bon, which she placed in lhat lady's
mouth. The bon-bon burned Mrs. Beard's
mouth; lt bad a strong metallic taste, and
she ejected It as soon as possible. Neverthe?
less, she was taken ill, and suffered as lfXrom
the effects of some strong poison. She recov?
ered, but not long afterwards she received a
JOX containing catr.es and sweetmeats, some
jf which were also poisoned. Dr. Beard now
lad aa Interview with Miss Edmunds, in
which lt appears he accused her of attempting
ta poison his wife. Thus (ar the eise is nos
rery strange-women madly la love hart:
sought to poison their rivals ever since tue
fvond began, and I presume they will continue
to do so until the world ends. Bat now some?
thing strange occurred. Part ot the case Is
alli wrapped In mystery, for upon the trial
the tt simony of Dr. Beard was.exclnded fur
technical reasons. Bat lt seems that Miss
Edmunds was greatly hurt by what Dr. Beard
;aid to her, and that she devised a plan by
which she might make him believe that she
aad not Intended or attempted to poison his
(Vile. She had given her a poisoned bon-bon,
it was true; but If she could show that pol-1
loned bon-bons were sold at the confection
2r'd in Brighton as a common thing, and that
jhe had bought ber own poisoned bon-bons at ?
this shop, she could make ? lair show of inno?
cence. Uer mind devised this scheme-she
would herse'f poison a quantity of bon-bons
exactly like those sold at the shop in question;
jhe would contrive means to gel these poison?
ed sweets mixed with others In the shop;
people would buy them and be poisoned, and
then she would say to Beard, "See, I am inno?
cent ! The poisoned bon-bon which I gave to
pour wife I innocently bought!'' This sounds to
me very much like the shrewd calculations of
?lunatic; to carry out the plan would bring 1
about the death of an indefinite number ol I
people, whom she did not know, and against
whom she had no hatred; it mattered not to
her; all the children In Brighton might be
killed with her poisoned candy and she would
rejoice if only tnereby she could win her lover
Pack to her. It was not a case of saving her
own life; Dr. Beard hal not threatened to
prosecute her; he had only cast her off, and
was "cold" towards her because be believed
me bad tried to poison his wife. She must re- j
move this belief at any cost.
Two things were necessary to be done, and
90th wero difficult. She must procure the
poison wiiho'tt being known to procure it;
ind having poisoned some bon-bons she must
zet them mixed at the confectioner's shop.
Bet?re this Bbc had procured some poison at a
shemist's in Brighton by representing herself |
is a Mr?. Wood, saying she wanted the
strychnine to kill v.ii*, with, and bringing wtih
her a tradeswoman of the town, to whom she
had introduced herself as Mn. Wood, to
"Identify" her. She forged a note purport?
ing to be written by one chemist ana ad- >
dressed to another, stating that the first was (
out of strychnine and requested the other to
send bim some at once. She sent this note by
a boy whom she picked up In the street, the
unsuspecting chemist gave him the poison,
and he took it to Miss Edmunds. She now
had her poison; she went to the confect lon?
er's, purchased a quantity ot "chocolate
creams," and went home with them,
where, as is supposed, she impreg?
nated them, In some way not under?
stood, with strychnine. It remained to
convey these deadly sweets back te the shop.
At first lt seems thal she despaired of accom?
plishing thlp, and contented herself with
dropping them about the town in a very "pro-1
mlscuous" manner, but always in paper bags
having thc name and address of the confec?
tioner. She left one of these bags ina station?
er's shop; a boy found lr, ate the candios, and
was taken very 111, but did not die. She lefi
another bag in anolher shop, and a similar re?
sult followed. Perhaps these were only ex?
periment!1, to ascertain how much poison a |
"chocolate cream" could bold. At last, how?
ever, she matured her plans. One day she
walked out; she carried In ber muff a paper
bag containing "chocolate creams" fully Im?
pregnated with, strychnine. Sb? found a boy
in the street; she gave him some money and
told him to go to the confectioner's and buy a j
quantity of "chocolate creams" of a certain
aesciiptioti; lie obeyed, and returned to ber
with ihe sweet1, which were In a paper bag
exactly like the one she carried in her mull'.
Turning her back to the boy for a mo?
ment elie exchanged the two bags, and then
handing the one containing the poisoned
sweets to the boy, told him ibat he had made
a mistake, und that he must take them ?suck
to the shop and exchange them for the same
quantity of another kind. This was done-the
poisoned sweets were emptied back among
others, and were ready to be sold to the first
comer. Miss Edmunds's messenger returned;
she rewarded him for bis trouble, and she
went home lo walt for results. Perhaps she
wondered a little that night as to wno her In?
nocent victims were to oe-and perhaps she
felt a little Idle pity for them. It was sad that
she must kill some Utile child or some young
mother in order that her lover might be
won back to her; but all the children aud all
the mothers In Brighton must be killed sooner
than her lover should not be won attain. * And
thus she waited lor results.
She had not long to wait. She had sent the
poisoned creams to the shop on the 8th of )
June. On the 12th a man named Miller, who
was in Brighton on a visit to his iriends,
went to this shop, bought some "chocolate
creams," took them to his brother's house,
and gave one of them to his little nephew, a
child only four years old. In ten minutes the
child began to cry; In twenty minutes more he
died. Mls-j Edmunds lia J at last succeeded In
sufficiently poisoning "chocolate creams."
This happened? In june, but the prisoner [
was not taken Into custody until Hie 25th of
AugiiBt last. All this while she was engaged
in scattering poisoned "chocolate creams"
about Brighton, In Bending boxeB of poisoned
fruit to her iriends, and In writing anony?
mous letters to the lather of the murdered boy
urging him to prosecute the confectioner for
murder. Many of her victims were taken
very ill, but no other deaths occurred; the
"chocolate cream" business was broken up,
and the confectioner destroyed all lils stock,
and finally, owing lar more io the Imprudence
of Miss Edmunds than anything else, suspi?
cion fell upon her, and she was arrested and
indicted for the murder of the boy, for the at?
tempt to mulder Mrs. Beard and others, and
tor fraud and forgery. So violent was the
prejudice against her in Brighton that a
change of vrnue was granted. She was
brought to London; aud her trial, which lasted
two days, eaded last night In a verdict of |
guilty and a semence of death.
The defence, albeit it was conducted by Ibat,
aile advocate, Mr. Sergeant Danny, appeared
to me to be weak. It was simply tbat the
woman was insane, and several doctors testi?
fied that lu their opinion she was of unsound '
mind. They admitted, however, that sh
knew right from wrong, and claimed onlj
?he had ,la deficient noral sense." Eu
Juries listen to these plaas with great dis
In their opinion, when a person's "n
sense" ls so "deficient" as to lead him to
der, that person must be hang. The pr
log Judge was Mr. Baron Martins, and he

on the wretched wo m in l rom- time to

Asllghtly-madeand paje-faced woman,

look older than she really is, and yet, <
without making any such allowance,

)laced yourself towards; the close of the ye
1870. probably led to all this;, but the truth I
.hat only confirms the propriety of this ve
lict. In order to have your case fairly tried
wished to keep out the whole of that matte
br lt seems to me that the more you say aboi
t the worse you. make your case to be. I a
julie certain that the unhappy manner und?
which yon became acquainted with Dr. aq
Hrs. Beard led to your turning your attentio
ja poisoning these articles-led to your poisoi
ng fruit and a variety of things. I have on!
>ne duty to perform. I entirely concur In lb
rerdict of the jury. I consider that they gai
he utmost attention to the ci rou m etan ces und <
which you gave those sweets to the little bo;
ind they have arrived at a conclusion which
>olleve to be the right .erne. I believe thu
rou, having the idea of pol o mn g 'into you
nlnd, poisoned a quantity of sweetmeat
ind gave them to (he boy Adam May, and
lave no doubt that your giving him thee
tweets caused eventually the deatn of Sydne
Barker. Tdu had no desire to kill this child
: belelve, but lt seems to me that you got Int
i morbid slate of mind in consequence c
??our relations with Dr. and Mrs. Beard, an
n the end it led to all this. That ls, I tbiul
he truth of this case, and I wished to kee
Dr. Beard's case entirely away, with the vlei
)f giving you tho fairest trial lt was posslbl
o give anyone In such a position. I real)
relieve myself that you are guilty, and ott
nore do 1 consider that the jury were right ii
?ejecting the evidence respecting your lo
sanity. In truth, I think there was iv
svldence on that point to go to a jury; an
f I had been asked to rule against lt
mould have so ruled. The question reall;
s, not whether a person ls of weak intel
ieot, but whether ne or she ls able t*
distinguish between right and wrong. Wltl
?ich litters ai you have written, lt would, ba vi
seen lmposslole to find any other verdict. I
jouid be no pleasure to the Jury to bring yoi
in guilty, but I do not wish to make an;
further observations to distress you. I cai
jnly say that I believe the verdict of the Jurj
lo be a right Judgment on both points Bub
misted to them. The law imposes upon mi
i he duty of passing sentence upon you, wbicl
ls that you oe taken lo the place from whenci
you came, and thence to ihe Jail at Lewes
?hat you then be taken to the place ot execu
Hon, and be hanged by the neck until you bt
dead; that your body be burled within th?
precincts of the prison; and may the Lort
have mercy upon your soul.
The prisoner, wno stood very calmly listen?
ing to the Judg J, was now asked whether she
had anythlug tu say In order to stay the exe?
cution of the sentence-whether she was pmeg
nant with child. After a few moments' delaj
the prisoner muttered something, which wai
so indistinct that the female warder and the
governor ol' Newgate bad lo ask her again,
At leug h a reply was elicited, to the effecl
that she was pregnant, and amid great excite?
ment-nearly everybody in the place standing
up --the under-sheriffs were directed lo Imme?
diately emoanel a jury of matrons to try
whether ibis statement was irue or not. Thle
was a matter of great difficulty, and messeng?
ers had to be sent out, imo lite neighborhood
but after some delay, Iwelve ladies were
placed lu the jury-box und sworn, and the
prisoner was asked whether she had auy evi?
dence to offer. To this she simply answered,
"No."
The jury were then removed to another
room, where the prisoner was also taken for
examination. Another difficulty now aro-e,
for a doctor was needed, and no one seemed
willing to offer himself. Several names were,
called. Including those of the medical men
who had anneared as witnesses in the case;
but some "were out of the court, and others
objected on the score ol' blas. Amongst these
latter was Dr. Blake, who excused himself on
the ground that, he had professionally attended
Dr. Beard's and Dr. Boyd's family, and his rea
Bon was admitted as valid. At length a doctor
named Byley was found and seni to the jury,
who, alter more lhan half an hour's absence,
returned to the court and re-entered the box,
th? prisoner being again placed at the bar.
The que.-tion wnether they agreed In their
verdict was put and answered affirmatively.
The forewoman was then asked whether the
|ury found the prisoner pregnant with child,
and with quick child, and replied ''No"
The wretched woman, upon hearing this
fatal word, again attempted to speak, but i-he
was hurried away by the warder, and this
morning wus removed to Su.-sex, where 6he
will bc hung, if Mr. Bruce, the home secretary,
does not set his own Judgement against iliac
of the Judge and Jury. The Journals this morn?
ing demand that, this shall be done. It is un?
usual in England for the verdict of a Jury to be
questioned, but this one ls boldly questioned.,
and one of the papers to day dec'ures that If
this unhappy woman is hung, English Justice
will be stained with indellible disgrace.
