To-day the campaigns fairly closed,
The lucky man is he
Who ta' cs his seat on the 4th Of March
Our President he'll be:
And now the next best thing
just suited to our mind,
Is where to get the cheapest goods.
The best Of goods to find.
My friends and went out one day,
Some New Spring Goods to buy;
And we resolved, before wo went,
Tho different stores to try.
We wandered Winnsboro all around
Until our feet were sore,
And found the very place, at last,
Twas SOL WOLFE'S New Cash Store.
Or Hats, Clothing and Boots and Shoes,
The latest to our view
The very best styles of Dress Goods,
And Prints so cheap and new.
SO then, m, good friends, one aud all,
Now is your time to try
What D.rt;nins you can get of mo-
Or, you need not buy of SOL.

TO restato the results which will
follow the Withdrawal of the troops

Third-It will place all The agen~
cies for maintaining tho present
lawful government of tho State in
tho practical possession of the Demo

Fourth-It will lead to tho quick
consummation of Il political outrage
against which l have felt and now

THE LATEST
FIRE IN WASHINGTON.
The Patent Office Building in
Flames.
And The Entire Upper Floor Burned Out

WASHINGTON, Sept. 24-12 MA fire
is now raging in the building of the In
terror Department., which has always
been considered tire-proof. Every effort
Is being made by the Fire Department
to subdue the flames, and by employees
to remove valuable papers from the
vicinity Of the flames. Despite all that
can be done it Is feared records whose
value can not be estimated by dollars,
belonging both to the Land Office and
Patent Office, will be destroyed.
The fire commenced in the model-room
of the Patent Office, and quickly COM
municatsd to the root, where it was first
discovered from the streets. A general
alarm was given, and every engine in
the District was soon on the ground, but
on account of the inaccessibility of the
fire but little progress could be made in
subdung the flames. The fire can be
seen from all parts OF the city, and the
greatest excitement prevails.
The Departments are almost entirely
suspended, and the clerks, with thou
sands OF citizens, are crowded Oh the
streets adjacent to the fire.
The fire broke out in the roof, In a
place where flowers are slowed in the
winter, and supposed to be the result of
The intense heat of the room,
The entire upper floor is gutted, but
the flames seem to be yielding to the
power Of the fremen.
The burned portion of the upper floor
embraces all the part facing Ninth
street and extending from to Y
streets, being the western section of The
model.room.
Every effort is being made to prevent
the fire spreading. The Fire Depart
ment is out in full force, and assistance
has been asked for from Baltimore.
Business in the different Departments
is entirely suspended.
The fire has extended considerably
during the last half hour, showing that
the Fire Department is unable to con-
troll it.
The entire north wing is on fire from
Ninth street to the center of the build
ing.

THE FIGHTING AT BIELA.

National Associated Press to the star.
VIENNA, Sept. A.-A special dispatch
from Bucharest to the Political CORE
spondence, dated Saturday, says there
has been severe, indecisive fighting for
two days between the Czarowitch and
Mehemet Ali. The Russians still hold
Biela. Another paper, however, states
that the Russian headquarters have re-
tired to SlStoya.
TERRIBLE ATROCITIES OF THE TURKS.
LONDON, sept. 24.-Fhe pitilul stories
of tue condition OF The Christian popula.
tion South OF the Balkans are beginning
10 create uneasiness and Indignation in
Europe. The dispatch Of Ahmed Vetk
70 Aurianople at the instance Of Minis
ter Layard, has not had the effect of put
ting stop to the executions. The ILal-
ian Consuls are sending to their Govern
ment fearful accounts Uf the doings Of
the Ottoman officials.
They say exactlOns and trapsporta-
tions are depopulating Roumella. The
Italian Consul at Tripoi states tLat
1000 Bulgarians landed at Trrpuli from
a Turkish transport, and have been
sent 10 the border OF the desert in the in
terror.
A correspondent Of the Times, en-
gagged on one OF the reliet agencies ut
work among the Bulgarians, sends a hid
eous account OF The state of the prov
ince. He is at present established at Car
dova, on the south slope ofthe Balkans,
20 miles west Of X .zanlik. In this
place the population, which ne estimates
must have been near 70, 900, there Is not
"a grown man left alive.
For six weeks the place has been at
the mercy Of the irregulars Of the Turk
ish army. There now remain among the
ruins OF what was once u beautiful and
thriving town only five or six thousand
women and children. These puor crea-
lures hue themselves as best tney may,
ureading the outrages OF which nigutiy
some of them are Victims. They can
hardly be said to have shelter, clothing
OF food, and have sustained life by gath-
ering roots and vegetables lett in their
ruined gardens.

true the loss Will be confined principal
ly to the model cases and furniture of
the model rooms.
Assistance from Baltimore has just
arrived.
4 Mr.. Ford, chief of the Mining Divis-
ion, says he saved every paper OF i'm
portance In the Division. The destruc-
tion In the room facing Ninth street, in
which the fire seemed to have made Its
first appearance, has been complete.
- The floor in this room has proved to be
fre-proof, and the fire has not gone
to the room below. One engine is still
playing in this room TO cool off the iron
floor. Meanwhile the fire still extends
west on the north front and the en-
ployes of the building have commenced
to throw the models from the windows.
The contents Of the model-room are as
dry as tiuder. From present appearance
the entire upper story will be burned
out. The heat from the fire is Intense.
The buildings on the opposite side VI U
street are covered with wet blankets,
aud people are stationed on the roofs

This building was formerly occupied by

The Baltimore engines, three in num-
ber, came over in thlrty-three minutes.
On their arrival iu front OF the Patent
Office they were greeted with tre-
mendous cheers. Two engines have ar
riVad from AIeXandria
The fire has burned out the upper
story on the north front, and is now
slowly coming south on the west side.
1t is barely possible that the re-euforce-
ments in engines may enable the Fire
Department to get the fire under con-
troll. The greatest confusion existed in
the Department up 10 an hour ago.
TWO MORE FIRES.
The fire has communicated to the liv-
cry stable, and it is rumored that two
men have been burned.
Another fire broke out at 2:40 on
street, and another in the First Ward
west Of the War Department.
