WEDNESDAY, MAY 25, 92. The Race For Congress. Who will represent South Carolina in the Fifty-third congress ? That is an interesting question that cannot be definitely answered until after the No* vember election, bet the matter has already taken such shape as to furnish aBlnoaat material for speculation. The First district is cow represented by Major William H. Brawley, of Charleston, who is serving his first torn Mr. Brawley made a strong speech in the present congress against the free coinage of silver, and for that reason, if for no other, he will meet with strong opposition wbea be seeks re-election. His district ia 'the most ragged and curiously shaped of all the ragged and cnrioasly shaped districts in the State. It takes in Beaufort and Charleston, triangular sections of Goliefton and Orangebarg, and si! of Lexington, extending fall two-thirds the length of the State, nod of coarse including a /large number of negroes, though the whites are probably in the majority. There will be three candi dates. Mr. Brawley, of Charleston, at 'one end of the district ; H. A. Meetse, of Lexington, at the other end; and and Dr. J Wm. Stokes to the centre. The fight will probably between Stokes and Brawley, MeetsVs rotes coming mainly off of the latter. In the Second district the race will fce especially lirely. The district is 'composed of Edge?eld, Aikeo, Barnwell " ad Hampton, and a part cf Colleton. "So far four candidates bare announced themselves. They are Geo. D. Till man, the present incombent, Robert Aldrich, Joho T. Gaston and W. J. Talbert. Till m an is as able a politician as the governor and is very popular. Aldrich is generally believed to have a big following,, and Talbert is known to be a hard fighter. The contest is likely to be between Tiilman and Talbert with the chances largely ia ?vor of the former. The Third district is another euri ?wsiy shaped affair, including Newber ry, Abbeville, Anderson, Pickens and Ocooee. There may be more, bat as yet only two candidates are ar nouncad. They are George Jobnstone, the pres ent incumbent and D. R. Norris. John ?tone beat Norris by only twenty-two votes in the last election, and Norris still believes that he is the best and most popular man. In the Fourth district, now represent ed by G. W. S bell, congressional matters have not yet taken very definite shape. It ia quite likely, however, that Mr. Shell's re-election will be vigerccsly opposed. In rsone of ike districts is the situa tion more w (creating than in the Fifth, composed ?f portions of Spartannorg and Unioa, and all of York, Chester, Lancaster, Kersbaw and Chesterfield. The present incombent, John J. Hemp bill, has been in the position for ten years, daring which time dozens cf aspirants have been trying to get his jib. Two years ago there was practi cally no opposition, but this year it is quite likely that there will be lots of it. Only one other candidate?John R. Jefferies. of Union?hao positively announced himself ; bat it is too early to say that there will be no more. There is talk of T. J Strait, of Lancas ter, becoming a candidate, and many individuals in this section think that Ira B Jones will alto be in the race, perhaps all four of the gentlemen named, as well as two or three more, will rnn, and perhaps the race will be altogether between Hemphili and Jef feries. It is not thooght that R T. Stack house, of the Sixth district, will have any opposition. He is very popular throng boat the entire district, and as it happens, his territory does ucl contain a politician with a sufficient amount of self conceit to make him think that be can get more votes than Suck boose. The contest in the Seventh, or Black district, will again be between Colonel Wm. ?. Klliott,aud Thos. ? Miller, col. The result, of course, will be doubt ful, and will, as osaal, depend on the complexion of the Fifty-third congress. It is not often that the result of an elec tion in this district is accepted without a contest. ?Yorkville Enquirer. mm - Prohibition Convention* Mention has already been made in these columns of the probable early calling of a Prohibition convention in this State. The matter has at last taken definite shape, and a fiual call has been oade for the assembling of the Convention. The call has nearly three hundred signatures, iuelding the names of many prominent citizen? of the State, and is aa follows: Whereas, the traffic in intoxicating beverages is one of the moat prolific causes of degradation and rain to the individual, poverty and wretchedness to the home, disorder, pauperism aod crime to the commonwealth and an enormous financial drain upon our already impov erished people; sod whereas the agita tion of last winter in the general assem bly bat? placed the issue squarely before the Democratic party in South Caroli Me Therefore, we, the undersigned, at the argent solicitation of a large num ber of the people, invite ail Democratic voters favoring the probibnon of the liquor traffic, to meet in Columbia, Tuesday, May 26. at 6 o'clock p oi. in the hall of tbe hou?e of representative*, there to form and adopt the best plan for presenting tbe question to the peo ple at tbe coming election through the regular Democratic organisation.

Some of the Farmers' AUiaccemeo in the South and ! West who are advocating the warehouse ' system for adoption by' the government, j hare been met with the argument thai it is not the profiles of the governmeot Ito ! build warehouses for any class of produ I cers, to which advocates of the warehouse I system hare replied that if the govern ment can baild warehouses in which to store whiskey there ought to be no reasonable objection to make to the construction of warehouses for grain and other products of the farmers. Senator Cockrell, who believed that this notion was an erroneous one, sent an inquiry to Internal Revenue Commissioner Mason, and baa received the following reply : Hon. M. F. Cockrell, U. S. Senate : "Sir: lam in receipt of your letter asking whether the United States government, out of government funds, has built any warehouses for the storage of liquors or distilled spirits, and, if sov the number of such warehouses, when built, the cost thereof and under what authority of law they were constructed If not, to explain who builds bonded warehouses for distillers, how they are bonded and upon what terms spirits are stored therein and revenue collected thereen. "In reply I would say that the United States does not now and has never built any warehoused for distillers for storage of their liquors and distilled spirits There is no law authorizing the ezpen diture of public money for this purpose ?U distilled spirits, with the exception of brandy distilled from apples, peaches and grapes, are deposited io warehouses provided by the distiller hiaself. Sec tion 3271 of the revised statutes provide that: ** 'Every distiller shall provide at his own expense a warehouse to be sit uated on and to constitute a part of his distillery premises and to be used only for storage of distilled spirits of his own manufacture until the tax thereon shall have been paid.9 "Distillers of brandy from apples, peaches, and grapes, exclusively, are exempt from the provisions of this statute. These distillers either pay a tax upon the spirits as soon as produced or the spirits are deposited in a bonded warehouse erected by a private indi vidual, and stored there until the tax becomes due, but in no case is the gov ernment liable for aoy expenses incurred in storing distilled spirits of any kied Before a distiller commences to operate his distillery, be executes a bond, the condition of which, among other things, is for the payment of tbe ta* upon spirits produced by him. When spirits are placed in a warehouse, which he is required to provide, an additional bond known as a warehousing bond is execu ted, for payment of the tax upon said spirits. In addition to this the distillery promises and apparatus are liable for tbe tax and the government has a first lien upon the spirits themselves for the tax due thereon. Until this taxis paid tbe government has custody of the spirits, by its officers, in these hooded warehouses. At the expiration of three years, or sooner, if the owner desires possession and use of tbe spirits, the internal revenue tax of 90 cents must be paid. Very respectfully, John W. Mason, Commissioner." If doll, spiritless and stupid ; if your blood is thick and sluggish ; if jour appelle te capricious and uncertain, jou need a Sarsa parilia. For fc st results take De Witt's.
