A To the Wire Tie.

CHARLESTON, Aug. 13.-The board
of directors of the cotton exchange
me: today and adopted the following
resolution in regard to the bale OF cot.
ton bound with wire which was sent
here to be tested afew days ago:
Resolved, that the bale received was
tested and stood the estrain of compress.
ing; that so far as the exporting OF
cotton bound with these wires is con-
cerned, this exchange cannot pass an
official opinion in the absence OF q
majority OF the exporters from the
city, but as far as we can see at pres
ent we think the cotton baled in this
way will be received by the exporters,
provided the cotton in urcompressed
and is wired as the sample bale sent us
for inspection.

An hour and 10 minutes before, q

A Horrible Affair.

MOBILE, Ala Aug. IA horrible
affair was made known here to-day on
the arrival of Rev. Gardner G. Tucker,
one of Mobiles most prominent Epis.
copal clergymen from Battle Wharf
on the Eastern shore, where the fami-
ly had been for the summer. His
five year old child was taken from her
bed at midnight by a man, supposed
to be white, who took her to the
woods and horribly outraged her, at
forwards bringing her back and de-
posting his bleeding burden on the
porch. Two counties are shocked by
the news and the Mobile police have
been called upon. Many mea have
left here heavily armed and with dogs
to scour the country and the fend will
have short shrift if caught.

The Cotton Tie Fight.

The Columbia State says "the ques.
tion of the utility of the wire cotton
tie as against the fiat steel tie now
seems to be pretty thoroughly settled.
A test of binding bale or two has also
been made in Georgia, and it proved
even more satisfactory than that made
in this State. These bales are to be
put through the cJtton compress IN
Augusta and will probably be more
fsvorably commented upon than those
pressed in Charleston, as the wire used
is larger and more flexible. The res
olutions of the Charleston Cotton ex.

the sametime they are not after send.

they are unit on is that they do moi

the trust to the bitter end, let the fight

of the ties on the market in the short

of the largest wire manufacturing con-
Germs in this country, which has Of.
fered special inducements on the kind
of wire that the tests have proven to
be necessary. This company has of

dies, and will do anything that is
deemed best in the making OF 8 proper
catch or buckle. Col. Duncan will
consult with the wire people and act
at once. He hopes to have the ties in
