Situation in This State. A Glance at the Coming Gen eral Election. Now that the national and general election for State officers is only three weeks from Tuesday next, for the bene? fit of those outside as well as io the State it is well to give a summary of the situation io South Carolina and present the sevrai electoral, congres? sional and State tickets that are io the field for the voters to choose from There is no question whatever that every nominee of the primary held ander the regular Democratic or ganization will be elected, that the electoral nominees of this organization ^will be elected and that all the county tioketS will go "throngh. There could only be any doubt as to the latter in thc county of Georgetown, but the parties have fused down there and settled their grievances among themselves in the primary, which it is said that ail will abide. But though everything is so pertain, the voters of the State should remember that they have the right to vote and that they should net from any overconfidence remain away the polls on election day. It never pays to ac? cept anything as settled when Jt comes to voting, and the true citizen-3s an old man who never failed to vote since he got the right, said the other day should always go to the ballot box and vote, no matter how hopeless or how confident be was. There are three State tickets in the field, one being the regalar Democratic ticket and the others being those put out by the two factions of the Republi can party. These tickets stand as nominated thus far, with the exception of one change that has been made in ti^ Webster Republican ticket, a new man having been sobstiutcd for the original nominee for lieutenant gov? ernor. There are-fonr electoral tickets be fore the people-the regular Demo? cratic, the Melton and the Webster Republican and the Palrner-Buckoer tickets. AU these tickets are complete save two. The Palmer-Backcer ticket has to have a man supplied in the Third district Then there is a vacan? cy on the Webster ticket caused by the death of Mr Moorman on Saturday last. Io the several congressional districts it is bard to tell as yet bow many can dates there will be in each district. It is safe to say that at leasttwo Republi? cans and one regularly nominated Dem? ocrat will stand in each district. In the Seventh district there will probably be three Republicans. It is possible that before ?-he election is held one of the Republican cominees in the First district may be withdrawn from the race by order of the national Republi? can congressional committee. Of the Democratic candidates six are solid free silver men and one is a "sound" money Democrat, Col Eiliot, who will make the race in the First district. For the information of the voters of the State of ali creeds and factions, however, the lists of the several nomi? nees in the field for the several offices to be f?!led are given as follows: THE ELECTORAL TICKETS.

In Gladstone's Pew. The Archbishop of Canter? bury Dies Suddenly. LONDON, Oct. ll.-The archbishop of Gaterbury, primate ot' ali England and metropolitan, the Rt Hon. and j Most Rev. Edward White Benson, | D D and privy councilor, died sud? denly to-day while attending divine service in the church at Hawarden The archbishop was thc guest of Mr. Gladstone, through whom-he was appointed- to the archbishopric of Canterbury, and, in company with the Gladstone family, went to the Hawarden church this morning. Af ter the serviee had commenced a commotion was noticed io the Glad? stone pew, and immediately thereaf? ter church attendants were eeen re? moving the archbishop, who, it is supposed, was suffering from a fit He was taken to the- rectory and medical assistance was hastily sum? moned. The doctors worked over him in vain, and at 11.45 o'clock he died The physicians state that death was caused by apoplexy. Archbishop Benson was 67 years of age. The archbishop and his wife ar? rived at Hawardetr castle, Mr. Glad? stone's residence, Saturday evening from the north of Ireland, where they had been visiting The arch bishop appeared to be in the best of I health He attended communion at | the Hawarden church at 8 o'clock j this morning; and then breakfasted ? with Mr Gladstone and family. Later he attended the morning ser? vice The "'confession" was proceeding when he fell forward. The church attendants removed the archbishop to the rectory as quickly as possible. The Rev. Stephen^Glad stone, the ieclor of the church, con? tinued the service until he received a message that the archbishop was dead He then closed with the prayer for the dead from the burial service. As the congregation left the church the organist played a dead march and a muffled pea! was rung on the bells. Mr. Gladstone was not at the church, the weather preventing. He was greatly distressed at the death of the archbishop. They had been close friends for a long time. Archbishop Benson waa esteemed by all sects for his moderation and broadmindedness. Hie death was announced at St. Paul's. London, at the afternoon service The news quickly spread and this evening there was a great assemblage at the | cathedral The preacher highly ? eulogized the dead archbishop for his ; services to thc church, his personal j uprightness of character and-lovable disposition. After the service, the organist played the "dead march," the con | gregation standing as the solemn j strains filled the edifice, the great I bell of the cathedral meanwhile be- j ?ag tolled in memory of the dead j Dean Farrar paid an impressive | tribute to the deceased archbishop in j Canterbury cathedral. -_ Hassel tine Sente need to t he j Penitc n tia ry, ?

To ?he Editor of The Srate : 1 am frequently interrogated on th subject, of pheasant*, aod finding it irk some to reply to all siogly I take this method of doing so. Three years ago ? purchased of F A Stuhr, Portland, Oregan, a trio cock and two he38-Mongolian or Chi? nese pheasant*" at a cost then of, ?5 a piece aod exp jsage on thc lot, $10. They arrived in May, the 25tb, the party having delayed^hiproents io order to get the eggs Io consequence of tho late shipment, I secured only a few eggs and did not raise any that year. Thc next year tho two hens laid 162 eggs, an average of 81 apiece ; one of them, the younger, layiog 100. From these I matured 30 fine birds and turn? ed out 15.of them, which are now re ported breeding and doing well, neets and young broods having boen seen by ?responsible farmer? around. The next year I lost all my hens from cholera caused by feeding shells laid by chick? en hens with the disease, and secured only one.setriog jf eggs, from which I succeeded in raising eight pheasants from them this year After distributing about 150 eggs in several counties, I have reared and set free 42, which are daily seen in the pea Seida around, and if allowed to breed next year with those heretofore will supply this sec?on boun? tifully io a few years Thc Mongolc3n pheasant is the finest game bird on this continent, gorgeous to look at, finer in flavor than the quail, very hardy and stands well to the dog. it was sent from China about 1882 io the Portland gun and rod club bv the United States consul to Shanghai, and has overrun the State of Oregon and Washington. With clubs in each county to repeat the experiment made here, and with good laws sacb as will no doubt be passed by the nest legisla? ture, it would be but a few years until the State would swarm with this grand? est of birds. They arc not as large as the English mixture, but I think are more hardy and certainly mere prolific. The cocks weigh three pounds and the hens two pounds, tbe common quail weighs barely haifa pound. They are not more difficult to rear than young turkeys and command a good price if raised for profit. T. W. Woodward, flockton, Oct. 10, 1896. - i ? ? i mm A Tidal Wave. SAVANNAH, Ga , Oct 9.-A special to The Morning News from Brunswick, Ga , received at ll o'clock tonight, says: A big tidal wave came in on an October northeaster today. No lives were lost or great damage to property sustained in Brunswick. Citizens own? ing rice plantations are fearful vtbat their entfVe unshipped crops are gone aud this seems probable. The less of rice planters will thus be heavy and not easily sustained by them io view of past mishaps The tidal wave to-day furnished thc most interesting sight since the one of 1854. The water completely hid ali the marshes between Brunswick, Fancy Bluff, Jekyl, SaioL Simons, Southern rai'way docks and other places Long stretches of the boulevard were under water and thousands of marsh and water animals were driven on shore for refuge.
