Question Answered.

THE question having been go often asked,
"Why is it that YOU ARE SELLING GOODS
SO CHEAP? We can understand how COM
mon goods can be sold low, but cannot con-
ceive how it happens that the superior class
OF goods that you always keep, can be sold at
such very low prices?"
I" the numerous inquiries, we give one
general answer: We are not selling our goods
80 very much below cost, but they are bought
right, and we have marked down our entire
stock for the purpose OF increasing our sales
and getting the goods out of the way, rs in q
few days we shall be knocking down walls, and
in consequence there VII, be !,,s;.
Now Is the time to by cheaper t!.am eve,

The DEDAsEMENr OF SOUTHERN POLL
TIcs.-With the recollection of White
more, the cadetship trader, to Congress
before US, the special correspondent of
the New York Tribune, who in this case
will certainly be acknowledged good
authority, writing from Charleston,
gives the following in relation to the rul-
ing power in South Carolina politics:
"There is On unpleasantly large class
of politicians who live only by politics,
who know no other profession, and who
look upon the legitimate and the illegiti-
mate emoluments of the trade with
equally favorable eyes. When to these
we add an infusion in the Legislature of
men chosen as the most eligible in u
community of field hands who never saw
Il school house and never owned a five
dollar bill. it is easily to be seen that
dangers beset the public affairs of South
Carolina"
The above is Il fair resume Of the po-
litical situation throughout the entire
South, and it is quite as true of every
other State as it is of South Carolina.

In A NUT-SHELL. The Mobile Reoiste,.
thus salts down truth in few snug
sentences:
"Coacing is just the way how not to
do it, when you want black votes for the
Democratic ticket. You may scare or
knock bird out of bush, but there is
not Irish blarney enough in the world to
'beguilo' him out Of it. The only and
the best way to persuade negro votes is
to let them severely alone, land by the
way the force bill commands TINT on
penalty of fine and i,nprisonment,) put
him on his own responsibility, and show
him that white men are strong enough
to take care Of themselves.

VIOLATION OF THE FIFTEENTH AMEND
MENr. In the decoration Of the graves
of the Union soldiers yesterday, at
Arlington, the colorcd soldiers appear 10
have been wholly ignored by the Grand
Army OF the Republic. The negro dead
occupied cemetery some distance apart
from that devoted to the Union soldiers,
and no preparations had been made to
include it i'll the operations oil the pro
gramme, and SO C;iil.y, for once, went
unnoticcd. George Il. downing, the
coiorcd restanrateur OF tho Capitol, is
highly incensed at this slight to his race,
and proposes to memorable Congress to
have the bodies of the colorcd soldiers
taken up and buried in the same ccmc-
terry with the whites, ''that no distinc-
tion may be made on account OF color. "

relations, then let US understand it. II
the radical adherents of this corrupt re-
gime, nov upon US, are going to build
up this or that man in business, then
does it become the duty of onr people to
accept the issue, and let the country
know who are for the interests of good
government and who are on the other
side. If any man in business hero, or
elsewhere, in this State, stands up like q
man for the right, let the people see to it
that he is sustained. Under which king,
Benzoni? If this is the question that
Radicalism puts, let its opponents meet
tho issue in the spirit OF selfdcfcnce.
AS for ourselves, the mode of reform
that is now on the tdpis is no fayorite of
ours. We would have sought reform in
another way-would perhaps have put
less water in our political brandy. But
we do want reform in some way-some
fair, honorable, legal way-and whatever
form of action may be adopted, let it be
pressed with energy. Let us rally, let us
mite, let lis aoorh, let us expose, let us dis
sect, let us attack, and with resolutc spirit,
plant the banner of REFORM in the very
citadels of the PLUSDERERs and the RoB-
BERs. These are our views, and let them
go for what they are worth.
