For Representative Forty-ninth Congress: From Third Congressional District of Georgia: CHARLES F. CRISP, of Somter. A Boston company composed of negroes formed to import West India fruits into the United States has come to grief. The manager went to Jamaica and was so extrav agant as to psv |G per week for board. When he got to New York with a lot of fruit he didn’t have money enough left to pay the duty. The courts and lawyers are now trying to untangle the aifairs of the concern. Among the new applications of eotton is its use, in pert, in the construction of houses, ths materi al employed for the purpose being the refuse, which, when ground up with about an equal amount of atraw and aabestos, is convened into a paste and this is formed into large elabs or bricks, which ac quire, it it (aid, the hardness oi •lone and tarnish e really valuable building stock. Henry W. Oliver, of the Arm of Oliver Brothers and Phillips, Pitts burg, wss one of the Tariff Com missioners, end stoutly contended for high protection as a means of maintaining the wages of American labor. A few days ago his firm ordered a reduction of 12$ percent, in tbe wages of their 3,500 labor era, to take effect on tbe 1st of October. Tbie reduces their pay to about 98 cents per day; and this notwithstanding the fact that the tariff as now In force Is moro pro tective than even the commission recommended. In 18T0, the Ootober election in Ohio wss looked to with almost as much interest as that of Tuesday last, in the belief that It would have a great efleot on the remit of the Presidential election in No vember. Tbe Republicans carried it by 6,686 majority, but this did not diseourtge the Democrats eith er in Ohio or in the other States. The Republican ma|orily in Ohio in November of that year was only 7,516—an inerease of less than a tbonsand, and the Democrats car ried beth Indiana and New York in November. Another crank has crested a sensation at Washington. An old, gray headed man,dressed in a long blue coat, fattened around the waist with a piece of rope, went up to the While House on Mondsy, carrying a huge wicker basket, a large bundle of bullruehes, a epade and a new ax. lie eaid the basket contained egg plants for the Presi dent, the ax to kill the Q. 0. P. with, the spade to dig its grave, and the bullruahes to decorate its iott resting place. He was refuted admission to the mtusion, and be came to violent in hit conduct that s detective was telephoned for, and the old gent was carried to the sta tion house and tarnished with a night’s lodging at the expense of the government. It it time iorthe grand old party to go when cranks want to kill It with an ax, and ns Its grave with tuUrmUii. At the Qeneral Council of the Cherokee Indians of North Caroli na, Georgia, Tennessee and Ala bama, which was held at Cherokee, Swain county, N. C-, last week, nearly 3,000 people were represent ed, having among their number ministers, lawyers, teachers, mer chants, mechanics and farmers. Many oi them have been successful in business and a few have made fortunes. The leading men of this eastern or.tnch of the tribe keep well posted as to what is going on in tbe Territory, and appear to have a great love for the nation. The Irish Americans, of Briston, Pa., performed a weird rife Thurs day night. A large number of copies of Patrick Ford’s Irish World bad been distributed gratu itously among them. A large bon- fire was built and one after another the Irishmen marched by and de posited copies of the paper on tbe blazing heap, and ns each one made his offering to honor and Democracy be used in mockery the words of J. G. B., “Burn this. The ceremony was concluded with gronns lor Patrick For.l nd three cheers for Cleveland .and Hen dricks. If our Democratic friends in this congressional district think that their candidate can lie elected without any special work, and tbe Republicans are doing nothing, they may be awakened from their lethargy the day after the election by the tones of a big Republican Bell. It is time that the Democrats of this district were at work organ izing their forces. If the Republican majority of Ohio keeps on dwindling down as it has for the past two days, it will turn out to be a Democratic victo ry- ■ ' Now let the Democrats of the Third district take their eyes off of Ohio and look aiound and see if there isn’t some work to lie done at home.

Tottered and Fell in a Day! Specially was this true of many large and celebrated Clothing manufacturers who had made up numerous stocks from materi als bought on credit. These manufacturers placed their faith on lively and profitable September trade, absolutely relying on it for funds to meet their maturing paper, which they had given for piece goods, but the trade did not come, the continuous warm weather and no customers cooked their “goose,” and there was nothing left for them to do hut to fail and turn their goods over to an Assignee.
