CHARLESTON, q. c., Oct. 2i.--The
situation in South Carolina, from o POI
liticai standpoint, ID decidedly peculiar.
Everybody is talking politics and the
people are wrought MP 10 q high pitch
Of excitement. The excitement is con-
fined TO NO class, nor 10 any particular
section Of the state. It Is general
throughout the whole state and affects
both races. The few days now remain
ing before the general election in No
vesnber bid fair 20 be days well filled
with bitterness and even bloodshed.
The leaders of the opposition factfeGg
are hard at work and neither side will
leave q single stone unturned to insure
victory. There are many who regret
that such o state Of things has come,
but, ON the other hand, there are others
who welcome the breaking of old party
lines. All recognize the fact that the
negro vote wiz be used and many admit
that the
Negre win he the pseiding Factor
n the hght between the whites. A
great many bewail this recognition OF
the negro's right to vote, and declare
the result win be that In the next four
years the blacks will have control of the
state. The other side retort that it is
the part of wisdom TO recognize the fact
that the negro vote cannot be suppressed
much longer, and to take charge of 1t
now and get control of ii. They say
that recognition of the negro vote il but
question Of time, aud that, too, of q
very short time, and that IL they did
not use IL their opponents would use IL
two years hence to keep themselves in
office.

Something which Catches the Eyes OF
Men,

That's the way Men talk right much
about the penchant Of woman for dress,
but just put something N the way of
dress in their own line before them, and
see what great attention they will give
it.
Walters, the tailor, knows something
about men folks, and he is capturing
their attention and admiration by an eX-
ceedingly handsome and unique feature
which he has placed in his windows.
1t is most too much of an undertaking
to try to describe exactly what is being
talked about now. The objects must be
seen to be appreciated, and in fact, they
ought to be seen. They are worthy Of
inspection.
There is no special name for them, but
they represent very handsomely made
Prince Albert elegant material and ele-
CANT shape, and while there is no real
coat it looks so much like it that it is
readily taken for tailor made garment
which has been neatly pressed out. There
is also the representation Of handsome
sack coat. Both show the neat and
pleasing style in which clothing is made
up by the Walters system of cutting, and
nothing can come nearer perfection IL
the way of an elegant fit than suit cut
according to this system. These are the
first signs of this kind ever shown In the
city, and it is characteristic Of Walters
f! to have them first.

WASHINGTON, Sept. % The inef1ect-

another Republican caucus to-day. The

the attendance of absent Republicans was
general, and Mr.. Moore, of New Hamp-

fined $5 each. Severe condemnation of
the absent Republicans was INDUCED in.
A count of absentees brought forth
promises from a number of members
that sufficient number of the absentees
to make a quorum would be present to-
morrow. Some members urged the
Abandonment of the Langston case, but
this action was opposed by most of the
leaders, and it was determined, without
taking vote, that the case should not
be cropped, and that adjournment

seated. With this understanding the
caucus adjourned, leaving it to the sew.

GREENSBORO.
COmpany--The Republican Ticket of
Guilford--HaS He Struck HIlee''

Especial Cor. STATE CHRONICLE)
GREENSBORO, n. c., Sept. 22-Quite
recently reports have gone ont in the
newspapers that the Steel and Iron Com
pany here has reduced its capital stock,
aud will not carry out its original plans.
These reports have done some harm, and
really they are not true. It was said
that the capital stock of the company
had been reduced from $1,000, 900 to
$3.50, 900; that the Ore Hill Mining prop
erty had deprecated $3.50, 600.
The facts as given to no by Mr. G. D.
BenboW, the Secretary o. the company,
are these:
First, it was found that the company
could accomplish its Immediate objects
hence it limited its stock issue FOR THE
PRESENT to 5000, 900 80 to 665 Fer cent.
of which may be called for to carry on
the work of their furnaces.
Second, new deal was made with the
owners of the Ore Hill property, by
which they were enabled to REDUCE THE
PRICE TO THE COMPANY, thereby saving
in cash $150,O00.
Instead of the company losing faith
in the enterprise, it's faith is very much
strengthened, and it's stock is now worth
really more than it ever was.
They need 100000 for immediate use
II building furnaces, &c, and have no
doubt but that this amount will be raised
at once by the sale of stock.
The North Carolina Steel and Iron
company cannot fail with such men as
julius A. Gray, Julian S. Carr, A. B.
Andrews and the Oieils to manage it
They have the ability and the money to
push it to success.

from principle. These two last named
have been Republicans all their lives
Tommie said that he was as solid a
Republican as was this long-long Re
publican The lifelong Republican in

Tommie called him a d liar. Upor
