Is the State in Danger J A staff correspondent of^the News and Courier, in an articlc of much fhnncrht and rienr. reviews the DOliti -O'- ? - fc cal sitoation in this State and he tells of the apparent apathy found among the Democrats in the different sections of the State. He says of the speakers, and their efforts: The speakers have done their part. At great personal inconvenience to alL and at the cost of positive physical suffering to several of.their,number, they have travelled and .-'.bored ni?ht and day, under circumstances of the utmost discomfort to discharge the important. ?aty assigned to them of presenting to the people the momentous is&rcs involved in the pending contest. TVkrt mnr?h r???nnnf rw>. in ntnisA of the zeal and untiring earnestness which they displayed everywhere, and when it is added* that they have been most zealous and most earnest where appearances were least encouraging, the character and valne of their work may be partially appreciated. Senator Hamplou went to Edgefield against the earnest advice of his friends, and spoke at Aiken, when he sbonld have been resting at home. He was suffering severely whiie on the stand at Abbeville, Edgefield and Aiken, and only retired from the can vass wben it was no longer possioie for him to disregard the warning voice of constant pain. Governor Thompsou has become hoarse from incessant speaking. Lieutenant-Governor Sheppard is confined to his bed at Edgefield, after narrowly escaping sunstroke, and all the' speakers have suffered more or less from laboring almost unremittingly during the prolonged and intense heat which has has marked tho progress of the canvass so far. Of the condition of the party as viewed by the campaigners in their tour, and of the apathy found, he says: The response of the people to such faithful efforts on the part of the canvasscrs'has not been what was desired and expected. So far as my opportunities tor observation and information have extended, the meetings, except at Abbeville and Union, have been small. Judging from appearances only, it would seem that the Democracy of the State propose to attack the cohorts of the Black District in the form of the old Greek phalanx?Abbeville constituting the banj of of a column that tapers rapidly toward a point somewhere near Beaufort. However effective this ingenioas arrangement may have proved in ancient times and on the field of battle, it would very likely fail now in political warfare, and will scarcely be relied on in South Carolina. This review is not intended to cast a gloom over the situation or to cause alarm in the State, but for whatever purpose it may have been written, it ic wMiFiBmiKr nmnf all ths-samp. that ?*, v>"~ . ?o r- -i the Democrats are over-confident, and that such confidence is dangerous. For onr part, we do not believe that the State is absolntely safe, and those who do, should rise and show it. "We do not hesitate to'say that we believe the electoral vote of the State is in jeopardy, and it is so, merely from the existence of the apathy spoken of. The negroes have a large majority of the voters of this State, and theie is no disguising this fact. We .may, .aad A ^AAittnftr UUUWLlCfcS ilttvu s-aicij auu ogvuntv ii/i the State government, but it may not be so in the Federal election, and it so right here where the work is most sorely needed, and right here the greatest danger lies. The polls of the Federal and the State elections are, by law, separated and it is not unlikely that efforts will be directed towards carrying the Federal election by stonu. If superhuman efforts are not, therefore, made why may not the Repobli can etecturs ue cieuieu, a.i;u wuy uiitv we ?0t lose two or three of our Democratic Congressmen? This is important certainly, and Democratic leaders in the various counties should begiu active campaign work. The electoral vote of South Carolina will be essential to the election of Cleveland, to the Presidency, and a remi9S of duty, on our party, will be fatal to our party success. AH that is needed to arouse honest and faithful Democrats is to L-*? At JJ uen uiem 01 toe uaiigers, auu iuc uiutime enthnsiam of "76,' will live again, wid the Democratic tickets, State and Federal, will be elected, with handsome majorities. The writer of the irticle - in question very wisely and truthfully says: All now depends upon the correctness of. the assurances," and it be(Uaaa fham fA ixvuvca iuusc nuv uarc uutuv nw/ui iv look well to it that they are fulfilled, [t is not too much to say that the political fate of the State .now lies in the aands of the county chairmen and their sxecutive committees. Whatever interest the people may feel in a struggle which their leaders unite in-characterizing as the most important one made in the State and nation since 1876 :hat interest is not manifested by their pretence at the mass meetings. Be -3 ? ? TTrtM <KA??A slues, buciCdtiuiuuy ayvvc gxvcu, IUCW is little or no evidence that the entlmsiam which has greeted the speakers sx tended beyond the range of their roices.

Organization alone can hold ivhat enthusiasm has won. The Situation. Now that the October elections are jver aiiu. mi mure lu ucai ixuiu uuivic :he great battle in November, it would lot be amiss to "cast an anchor to windward" and see, if we can, how "ar from ghore the political ships are. esting. What political party will riumph in the contest, what ticket vill be elected, are the questions ab;orbing the public attention just now, rod thoughtful opinions are expressed, _M :J. _i *WV? u>?Wiue apai t> us LUC puiuj. The October elections in West Vir-. finia and Ohio were looked forward o with the most intense interest, not 'J. only by the leaders, but by the rank and file of both parlies, all hoping that the results, when announced, would settle the great issues of November; but uot So. The figures argue that success and victory can only be achieved - ? v.. 11.. ??i in i^oveuioer uy uje ujusl uimnug effort and redoubled energies. Had OLio gone Democratic, the contest wonld have been practically ended, and Cleveland's election would have been assnred. Or if that State had given to the Republican party a majority increased, when compared with the results in the October election of the last Presidential year, it wonld doubtless have placed Blaine in the lead, and proportionally increased his chances of election. But neither of the state of facts suggested exists as a truth. The fact is, first, that West Virginia gave to the Democratic party not only a majority, but an increased majority of 4,000 over the vote of last year, and it should be remembered thai the R^^ri'icans mad? the most desperate efforts to carry this State ancl seriously claimed it for Blaine. And "West Virginia was one card played and lost for the "Grand Old Party." Ohio gave a majority for the Republicans of less then 15,000, a felling off, when compared with the October election in .that State in 1880 of fully 5,000 votes, and when compared with the November vote of that" year of 20,000. It might be seriously contended that it is proper to compare the recent election in that State, with the vote in November of 1880, for the reason, that in the election jnst ovtfr, the fullest possible j vote was polled and the Republicans developed tneir enure sirengin anu that they cannot do any better in November next. Now if figures do not and cannot lie, they prove in these instances that the Republicans despite the use of a corruption fund, despite the potent influences of the machinery of the Federal Government, and despite the fact that every nerve and sinew of the party was strained to the uttermost, they lost, and heavily, in both of the October States?20,000 votes in the one aud in the neighborhood of 5,000 in tne otner. Can sensible and calmly-thinking men look upon the develpments of the present week as indicative of Democratic defeat? On the contrary does it not prove beyond question that the tide is drifting our way? The New York Herald, commenting upon the result, says: To such indecent extremities is the "party of great moral ideas" reduced. And yet* with all this unblushing use of patronage, with its hired agents, paid out of the public treasury, shoot ing citizens in ine streets, wiui upuu aud confessed corruption and the most lavish use of money, the majority secured is so much* less than they hoped for and needed that their victory is in effect a defeat. The scandalous scenes in Cincinnati can, scarcely fail to shock and disgust reputable voters in all parts of the country with a party which, under the eyes of its candidate and with his management, nsed such means to carry an election. The Democrats have no reasou to be discouraged to the result, but on the contrary. The Blaine men have spent their strength on a blow which hurts them far more than it does their Antagonists. Since we have, therefore, received ? 1.1 ? a. .UU uiuw iruii: iiic icuciii cicunvua, what are the chances of success in the general election in November? Democrats down Sooth, when they think of the long line of uninterrupted defeat and disaster to the national Democratic partv for the past qnarfer of a century, are sceptical of snccess, and no amount of facts, figures or argument will convince the average one that a Democrat, whatever may be his abilities and his virtues, has a ghost of a chance to be elected. That our party has suffered many and severe disasters we readilv admit, and that the chances of success this year are better and brighter than ever before we are prepared to argue successfnlly. Now all will admit that in the present contest Cleveland and Hendricks can safely count on the 158 electoral votes of the "Solid South," If this be true, the question of their election is narrowed now to their ability to carry each his own State; for New York and Indiana, with the Southern vote, will elect, with several votes to spare". Can Cleveland carry New York? He carried it two years ago bv a phenomenal majority?194,000. His opponent then was a better and a purer man than his opponent in the present contest. There was then no independent revolt?the metropolitan press was then about equally divided between the gubernatorial candidates. To-day it is practically unanimous in its advocacy of Cleveland's elecrjpn. The "business men" of New York eity were then, for Folger?now they rtwv TIia (Jfnl rr?r? nf f JLV/& v/ivv^auui J.U& uiaiuaibo were then the warmest supporters of Folger?now they are skulking, and Roscoe Conkling darkly intimates that Blaine will be knifed. Garfield in 1880 carried this State by 20,000 over Hancock?then the New York city press, reaching a constituency of 495,000 voters, was solid for him. Now fhfirft has bncn a change of front: the same readers are treated to Democratic taik in the columns of the same leading journals. The independents were for Garfield ?they are now for Cleveland, The "business interest" was for Garfield-^ now it is for Cleveland. Onr readers can draw their own conclusions as to what are the prospects in the Empire State. That Hendricks will cany Indiana is conceded by the Republicans. He did for the same office in 1876 by a handsome majority and he can do it again. Indiana is and has always been a Democratic State. Tbe Democrats, besides, carried New Jersey and California in 1880, and the chances are better this time than last. What of the chances now ? "We cannot say that Cleveland and Hendricks will be elected, but does it not look that way? We have" admirable fight mg ground, and the contest should be fought, and desperately, to the end. V AYER'S Cherry Pectoral I No other complaints are so insidious in their attack as those affecting the threat and lungs: none so trifled with by the majority of snffer- ^ ers. The ordinary cough or cold, resulting perhaps from a trifling or unconscious exposure, is often but the beginning of a fatal sickness. Ayer's Cheery Pectoral has well proven its efficacy in a forty years' fight with throat and lung diseases, and should be taken in all cases without delay. A Terrible Cough Cured. u In 18571 took a severe cold, which affected my lungs. I had a terrible cough, and passed night after night without sleep. The doctors gave me up. I tried ayee's Cheery Pectoral, which relieved my lungs, induced sleep, and afforded me the rest necessary for the recovery of my strength. By the continued use of the Pectoral a permanent cure was effected. I am now 62 yeara old, hale aud hearty, and am satisfied your cherry .TECTORAL savea me. Horace Fairbeotheb."

I was notified that I had consumption and would probably die. Dr. Holloway finally told me to try" Brewer's, Lung Restorer. They sent to ward's Store and got a bottle and I commenced taking, it ijght away. After taking two or three doses, I began to improve, and by the time I had used up one bottle I was able to get on my feet again. I am now in excellent health. I am confident that the Lung Restorer saved my life and my neighbors are of the same opinion. It is the best Lung Remedy ever made in my opinion. Dr. H. promised me that he woula write to the manufacturers and tell them of the wonderful cure it made in my case. Statement of Mr. BeDj. F.. Hearnond.
