Elsewhere will be found the letter of
Colonel j. Il. Hallowell formally an
nOuncing his withdrawal from the can
vass for congress. 1t will be read with
regret by thousands of his friends
throughout the district, and the state,
for few men had more close and loyal
friends than the gallant colonel. He de-
clines because of personal financial OPP
portunities that have recently arisen and
which Justify his course. 1t was not be-
cause he would fear the result of another
campaign, for lie never feared to battle
for Kansas, for the Union or for the
grand principles of the Republican
party.
Two years ago he was defeated by a
contagion that had poisoned the mind Of
the people, and came out of the contest
over 1000 votes ahead of the head of the
ticket in this district
1t was no fault of his, for any man in
America would have been defeated I'M
der like conditions. He made most
excellent canvass and the only reason
why he was not elected was because the
disease against which he was nobly con-
tending was too widespread and malig-
nant. He has ever been loyal to his
country, his state, his party and his
friends, and his declinatlon to run for
this exalted Office only means better
things tor him.

ON THE DEFENSIVE.
POSITION OF THE THlRo-PARTy OR
CANS IN NORTH CAROLINA.
An Open Admission About the Negro
Deiegates-Ths Negroes and ths Third
Party-Anairs Throughout the State.

Correspondence OF the Richmond Dlspaicn.l
RALEIGH, N. c., August 29.--The Third
party organs are now on the defensive and
they are resorting to new tactics. One OF
them. the Proqrtssire Farmer, charges in its
issue this evening that prominent Demo-
crat at Washington tried 10 bribe 8 Otho
Wilson. one Of the main "strikers" OF
the party. TO return 10 the Democratic
fold. The publication is regarded as a
canard. The Progressfrs Farmer. speaking
OF the return of some of its followers to
the Democratic party. says the latter
bought them with dogs" The spccihc
statement Is that fox-hound was given
one to change his vote.
THE NEGRO ArLrEs.
The Prcqressirs Farmer for the first time
refers to the negroes 10 the Ihird-party
State convention as delegates, and saws {;
There were negroesin the Peoples'-party
State convention. Certainly there were.
No one who was there denies 1t. No one
whose heart is set on the reforms we are
demanding regretted TO see il. These NO.
groes, as their eyes have been opened, see
that they are and have been for. wears o
bugaboo in politics. They decided 20 JOIN
the Peoples party this year. Do not make
too much ado about this, Democrats.
You know that you are claiming that you
will vote third Of the negroes in the
State this year."
THE NEW CHAIRMAN.
w. r. Lindsay has been taken down as
chairman OF tho State Executive Commit
tee of the Third party and his successor
is s. Otho Wilson, of Raleigh. who has for
two years worked for the new party IN
every county in the State. He did his
work as the canvassing agent for the State
business agency OF the Alliance. Mr.. Will
son gives notice to-day that General James
b. Weaver will speak at Raleigh Septem-
Der 29th and at Rocky Mount September
S0th, and that General j. q. Field Will
speak at Asheville September 29th ana at
Salisbury September 30th.
WILL VOTE FOR THIRD-PARTy CANDIDATES.
Your correspondent today asked negro
politician tor some points ON the status OF
the negro vote. He said II believe now
that the Republicans will not put up a
State ticket. | believe sentiment has
changed in this respect. The leaders OF
the anti-ticket movement are writing hum
dreds of letters. IL nov seems TO me
that word will be passed TO the Re-
publicans to vote for the Inird-psrty
nominees. There will be no public
fusion and nothing done of cha
racter to arouse any Democratic fears.
The negroes are ready TO do anything to
beat the Democrats. But there are some
men on the Republican ticket who will fall
behind. as many colored voters will abstain
from voting for them. Harry Skinner and
r. B. Long are two of these men. L will
not speak OF other names. Exum and
Marion Butler the negroes like. We do
not ike Skinner on account OF what he
said at the convention about the negro.
We do not pay any attention to the attacks
on the character of nominees"

SHYLOCK THE JEW.
II. d. MacLean and Marie Prescott at the
Theatre Last Night.


Last night at the Theatre r. ID. MacLean
and Marie Prescott began their season
with 1.-THE Merchant of Venice" The
production was far from being artistic,
which was partly due 10 the fact that 1t
was first night" (and things generally
90 wrong on occasions of this kind, and
partly to the fact that the talents of Mr..
MacI I,ean and Miss Prescott made the me-
diocrity of the company only too apparent.
The inadequacy of the supporting players
was somewhat of surprise, as Mr. Mac
Lean. heretofore, has always surrounded
himself with good company.
OF MacLeans Shylock much may be said
il praise and something in censure. His
conception of the part is bold and free
from restraint, although in keeping with
the traditions of the character. He is dra-
matte and forcible, uttering the powerful
lines given 10 the jew with much inten-
sity and enforcing them with an express
sive and, withal, digullied pantomime. In
deed, the play of his features is more stu
di q than his licing, and through the mo-
blity of his strong features and the won
darfui expressiveness of his fine eyes, he
CONVEYS 70 the audience the parts of the
play that are written between the lines y
But while MacLean thus develops certain
clements of artistic power, he is inclined
TO overdo this particular character. and
lets his passion run away with MIN, so
that when the clImaxes are approached
his reserve force is expended.
Miss Prescott plays the part Of Portla as
fine actress always plays lt-sweetly,
dehcasely, and yet with much dignity.
Her gracefulness and ease Of pose foil de-
lightfully the rugged and strong manhood
of MacLean.
The audience in attendance gave the
company a very chilling reception and
there was only little perfunctory ap-
plause. save at one time when Miss Pres
cott laid little too much stress on one Of
Shakspeare's Tisg,ie sentiments, and the
gallery gods, applauded vigorously instead
OF blushing behind their programmes (as
discreet gods should always do).
Tonight Mr.. MacLean and Miss Prescott
will appear in THE Dukes Wife," which
will also be presented tomorrow afternoon
and evening.
