The owners of The Crowdes Mountain Iron 16 Works beg to call the attention of capitalists iron oianufacturers, stock and dairy men, and those who wish to settle colonies, to their property. which offers inducements to the classes above named. The property consists of Six Thousand Three Hundred Aires of laud, located in the counties of Gaston and Cleaveland, In the State of North Car cliua. at King's Mountain Depot, on the Atlanta si.tl Charlotte Air Line railway, how owned by the Richmond anC Danville railroad company. The property has been used for fifty years past as an iron property, and has ueen worked at various points, hut chiefly at the site of the celebrated Yellow Khhre Ore Bank, which has always yielded an ore noted for Its richness in metallic iron, and Its softness and toughness. This vein of ore, which extends for two miles in length, has been worked to the depth of 147 feet, showing at that depth a vein of ore about 40 feet wide, and analyz ing as high as 66 per cent, of metallic iron. This, vein has not been worked for twenty years, but the facts set forth can be fully shown. Various other veins have been worked, and within' the past two years very large deposits of iron ore have been dis covered at other points. Within the past eighteen months, however, the owners have discovered de posits of ore in Crowder's Mountain, (ttve veins of iron ore, are exposed), which were unknown be fore, and which will furnish an amount of good ore, easily worked and above water, that must make it one of the most- desirable iron properties to t found. They have discovered on the pinnacle of this mountain, which is 1000 feet above the level land. 2200 feet above the sea leve', a vein of ore eifjht feet wide, which crops out at various points from the top to the bottom of the mountain, show ing in one place about 20 feet of solid vein. This vein can be traced over the top of the mountain for over a mlle.uud this deposit alone would afford an almost inexhaustible 9upply of ore, easily worked, and above the water due. In addition to this four other vein bve been found on this mountain. The ore is a mottled gray ore, showing on analysis from 49 to 65 lier cent, of metallic iron, with a sinali amount of titanic acid, and without any sul phur or phosphorus. The quantity of ore in this mountain is simply Inexhaustible and of good quality. Beside Crowder's Mountain the owners possess King's Mountain, for about seven miles, whose pinnacle Is the highest point of land from Rich mond to Atlanta, except ML Airy, In Georgia, and tney have reason to believe this mountain is full of ore also, in addition to iron ore the property has manganese, limestone clay for making fire-proof brick, gold and other minerals. . Very pure and ex cellent barytese has just been found in large quan tity.

We clip the following extract f roin the Philadelphia Pressa Blaine or gan. : Senator George F. Hoar ha ex pressed, in a letter to a young voter, the candid opinion of. sensible, fair minded men upon certain charges against Mr. Blainei These have been iterated and enlarged upon, repeated and rehearsed, until in many minds their misty bulk has taken shape - as proof of wrong doing where, in fact, no corrupt act is charged . by : any body, and the worst is the suspicion of a corrupt tendency by men who make the most of a ready phrase. The real issue presented by the whole matter is whether suspicion shall take the place of fact in deciding the. public estimate of a man's character against the settled judgment and opinion of men like Senator Hoar and the record of and honored life. This is drawing it mild, very mild, but it is about the best Senator Hoar, who is not so thin-skinned and over particular about vague charges and mere suspicious tendencies when dealing with slanders upon the South ern people, could do,; and about the best the Press could do. "No corrupt act charged by anybody?" Why the very letters in themselves, to which Mr. Hoar alludes, upon - which the charges of " corruption have been made, the authenticity of which Mr. Blaine admitted on the floor of the House of Representatives, are an admission of the charges and a con fession of guilt. Mulligan's sworn testimony on record shows that Blaine got from him under promise of returning them after most abject pleading other letters, which he did not return, and which, the,. presumption is, he destroyed. If these letters do not convict Blaine of corrupt practices, .then documentary proof amounts to nothing. Denials are not explanations and they never have been and never will be satisfac torily explained. Mr. Blaine seems to be sensitive now as to his honor. If he was so sensitive then when these charges were first made and the letters sup porting them produced in evidence why didn't he demand an investiga tion and insist upon it, and not retire from the House, to become a Senator and thus get beyond its jurisdiction, until these charges were thoroughly sifted, and the cloud that hung over his official integrity was swept away? He did not do this. He left the House and became a Senator under appoint ment from the Governor of Maine to fill an unexpired term, with these charges hanging over him unanswer ed. . "A suspicion of corrupt tendency,' indeed. But a suspicion based upon and strengthened by evidences of bargains over Blaine's own signature. A candidate for the high office of President should be above the suspic ion of bartering away his official in fluence for personal gain, and should not wrte letters that give ground for the "suspicion o.f corrupt tenden cy':" ' ' r '.'.v. :r ' 1 - t ; Gath is watching the drift of pub lic opinion. . A prominent New York brewer told, him recently that the Germans are going for Cleveland. Fully seventy-five and perhaps nine ty'per cent of them are Cleveland men. Gath also hears from reliable sources that Wisconsin ; will ' break away from the Republican column this time. : Wonder how much Blaine would be willing to throw in as boot in a swap of Stephe Elkins for Stephe Dorsey. ; Elkins believes in soap, but he is somewhat " inexperienced and hasn't caught on to th,e trick of rakj ing it in and dealing it out like the ilustrious star route ranchman did. The Petersburg, Va., Inde re marks that Mr. Cleveland may have fiinned. hut that if all the - Renubli cans equaiiy fts guilty , yo.te for im Blaine will be the worst oeaten man that ever ran for the Presidency. - The New York Sun says that there is no doubt that Governor Cleveland wrote trig letter o apceptancet ;.'That it is all his, .

THE ASSESSMENT BULLDOZER. . Mr. A. M. Clapp is a sort of boss of the Republican committee for the collection of funds for the Blaine campaign. The assessment business is not quite as smooth sailing'witb them as it used to be, government clerks who do not wish to contribute taking refuge behind the civil service act.v This seems to have "riled" the the temper of Mr. Clapp, who, in- a recent interview published in the Washingtod Critic, (Blaine organ), defends the custom of assessments, and concludes with -a threat of re moval against those who refuse to contribute. He says. ; : - "Those clerks write the committee, in response to circulars sent tnem soliciting contributions to aid the continuance of power in the hands of the party which is tolerating ana feeding them, anonymous letters, which are always cowardly, in effect that they propose to contribute- to advance the interests of Cleveland.: hey fancy that they will escape dis coverv. but in that they are liable to discover their mistake when it is a ittle' too late for their comfort and safety." This is both cool and impudent. : Is the Republican party "tolerating and feeding" these clerks for the service they may render the party, or are they employed to render certain ser vices to the government, for which they receive a stated compensation?. The impression prevails throughout the country that they are in the employment of the government, and are paid with money taken from the people in the shape of. taxes, and not employed . by the Republican party, for the Republican party. Mr. Clapp.. however, is candid in his utterance, and shows exactly how the party has been running and proposes to run thje government. This species, of despot ism and systemized robb3ry will never be stopped until the freebooters are driven from power and honest men put in their places. GOVERNOR CLEVELAND'S UNCLE. Denying Statements Attributed to Him by a Reporter. A Buffalo telegram says : The Hon. Lewis F. Allen, an uncle of Governor Cleveland, was questioned today by an Evening News reporter, and de nied making several statements attri buted to him in an interview publish ed in New York recently. As to the Governor's not going into the army, Mr. Allen said: "Grover's conduct was very creditable, I think. His mother was comparatively poor, and would have been very poor but for the children, all of whom were very much attached to her. There were three boys and four girls, as I remem ber them, and two of the boys thought it their duty to go to the front. Grover- was earning good money then, and contributed liberally to her support." Mr. Allen was asked whether Mr. Cleveland did not remain single in order that he might the more freely contribute to his mother's sup port, and replied: "Well, he never said anything to me about it. All I know is, he loved his folks much and was liberal. They were not des titute, you understand, because the girls were bright and capable. Lizzie was a good lecturer, and a teacher m more recent vears. It is just as like ly to be true that he has made such a sacrifico as to be false, from what I know of Grover. Mr. Allen denied that he had made several statements attributed to him, and after some vigorous remarks about being misreported said: "You must see how aggravating it is to be led about and misrepresented, and have it go all over the country that you re running down your own nephew. The fact is, Grover is a bright, capable, energetic fellow. He does not know as much as Blaine (my first choice), who is well versed in statesmanship, nor is he as brilliant in some other points. Why, Blaine is known over this big land for his attainments and Grover is only in public life about four years, yet he made a good mayor of Buffalo the best mayor we ever had. I voted for him. the only time up to then 1 ever cast a Democratic ballot. He was elected Governor and made a good one, and there isn't anything of a national experience he has ever had. It seems too sudden like to me, but I'll admit that he knows more than Hendricks and is better than Sam Tilden." Mr. Allen is eighty four years old. : ' . T11E V AR IN CHIN A.
