The property has been used for fifty years past as an Iron property, and has been worked at various puiriu, but chiefly at the site of the celebrated ieliow Ridge ore Bank, which has always yielded tn ore noted for its richness in metallic iron, and lis soiiuess and toughness. This veil" of ore, nhich extends for two miles In length, has been worked to the dept f 147 feet, shewing at that depth a ?ein ol ore about 40 feet wide, and analyz ing as high as 66 per cent, of metallic Iron. This win tos not been worked for twenty years, but the tuets set forth can be fully shown. , Various other Veins nave been worked, and within the past two years very larqe deposits Of iron ore have been dis covered at oiuer points. Within the past eighteen months, however, the owners have discovered de posits of ore in Crowder's Mountain, (five 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 oue of the most desirable Iron properties to be found. They have discovered on the pinnacle of this mountain, which is 1UU0 feet above the level laud, &suu feet above the sea leve', a vein of ore eight feet wide, which crops out at various points trum the top to the bottom of the mountain, show ing in one place about 20 feet 1 solid vein. This vein can be traced over the top of the mountain for over a mile, and this deposit alone would afford an almost inexhaustible supply of ore, easily worked, and auove the water !lue. In addition to this four MiHsr veins tvve been found on this mountain. The ore is a mottled gray ore,- allowing on analysis from to to 65 pec cent, of metallic Iron, with a small amount ofiltanic acid, and without any sul phur or phosphorus. The quantity of ore In this mountain is simply inexhaustible and of stood Quality. - ... Besl'ieCrowder"s Mountain the owners possess Kings Mountain, for about seven miles, whose pinnacle is the highest point of land from Rich mond to Atlanta, except Mt Airy, in Georgia, and tney have reason to believe this mountain Is full of ore also. In addition to iron ore the property has niangauese; limestone day for making fire-proof brick, gold and other minerals. Very pure and ex cellent barytese has just been found in large Quan tity. .. .

"While the Radical manaeers id this State have put f Dr. .York -and some other Radical speakers upon the stump, they have not attempted to make what might be called an. ac tive, open campaien. It has been more of a . still hunt campaign, on which they rely, for whatever of sue cess they may hope to achieve with tricks and money. " They are always most dangerous in the dark, for it is inthe dark they do most of ; their devilment. As to their methods they are thoroughly unscrupulous, and in their political, operations act upon the maxim that the "end justi fies the means." They would doubtless like to elect York, for if they elect him they will use him. They have made him, and he belongs to them, and he would dance to their piping as Governor as he has danced to their piping on the stump But they do not hope to elect Yoik, or the State ticket, and will consequently be willing to swap the State ticket for votes for Blaine elec tors, members of Congress and mem bers of the Legislature. On these they are laying their plans and cen tering their efforts now.: They hope to be able through their money to buy some Democratic votes, and to influence some not to vote against them. Through; their organization and these methods they think they can change six votes at each ballot box which in the total would over come the Democratic majority in the Stale and give them the victory.' We' don't believe they, can do this. We don't believe the honest voters of North Carolina can either be bought or humbugged in this style, but we recognize the fact that the Radical managers in this State are thorough ly, unscrupulous and desperately iri earnest," and that .where either the venal or wavering may be found they will not fail to" resort to any means that will capture " the one or the other. They have a thorough or ganization, they have the negroes almost solid with them, - and they have in every county active, tireless workers, many of whom are paid out of the treasury of the United States. 4 The Democrats are not as well or ganized, nor have an army of gov ernment paid officials and employees in the field, and hence what is done must bo done by the . people who want good government i and take in terest enough in the ; prosperity of the country and the State to work for it. The Democratic party ) relies upon-every Democrat to do his duty, and calls upon him, as he values his free suffrage, his own prosperity and the welfare of his fellow citizens, to exercise that suffrage in the cause of honest government, and thus help to foil the plans of the Radical leaders who are endeavoring by corrupt and desperate means to hold ; possession of the Federal Government, and steal the government of North Carolina. ; : Let no Democrat fail to respond to this call on the 4th day of November, for upon his vote may- depend the destiny of North Carolina, and upon the vote of North Carolina may de pend the destiny of this .Republic. As vou love - vour country and your State, rally to the standard of Democracy and honesty next Tues day. Perhaps it was Mr. Blaine's bloody shirt summerset that made Dr. York sick, and then perhaps it was . the painful absence of white men at his meetings in the east, aud perhaps it was the realization of the fact 'that he had, as the phraze goes, "bit off more than he could chaw." We trust, whatever it may, be, that it ia noth ing, more - than' campaign sickness, and that he may rally, and still- be useful to his fellow men as a healer of diseases, a better and nobler call4 ing than that of A tumble-bug politi cian. - ; Jas. G. Blaine will henceforth, be in favor of . cremation.1 pad these letters been cremated as James ' re quested of - Fisher, - it would . have saved the. gentleman from Maine a yasi amount of , tribulation. ' The sole reliance of ;the Blaineites in this campaign is the bloody' shirt and money,- the first of which they flaunt in the faces of the public, the latter of which they" stealthily put "where it will do the most good.'.' . i lilr. Hendricks is making a remark able canvass in Indiana.1 : Last week he addressed four large meetings at different points in ! one.' day. r and speaks every day once . or tvice, There's good timber in Thoraaa A ; ... , While Blaine flaunts the b. s.f Jack Logan writes "soft sawder" to those "three hundred mythical ex Confeder ate soldiers who wanted him to come down to Virginia and tell 'em how to vote. :: Joy will remember Beecher as long as he lives, and it will not be a joy fcl remembrance It is said it was the night air in the eastern part of the Statethat made York sick. It is more likely that it is simply a case of - over-exertion in trying to ride two horses at the same time. It is reported in 'Raleigh, that the Republican managers expect Johnny Davenport, the ballot box manipula tor from New York, to help them fix up things in this State. . . If the South was solid for Blaine there would be no bloody shirt in this campaign. But it is not, and that's what's the matter with the gentleman from Maine. The Blaineites have Abandoned the hope of carrying New York, - and are now- concentrating their : efforts on Indiana, New Jersey and Connect! cut. fe"t p fri?yi - . The public schools of Florida are in a more flourishing : condition and more largely "attended than :- they ever were. Florida is aj Democratic State.:-..: ty. ;':J :r: ? Michigan gave Garfield about 50,000 majority.but Blaine's managers think the State is safe for him. They think he will crowd through. - The Tallapoosa has' been raised and is : now in dock at Brooklyn navy yard. Chandler has recovered his whiskey. Gangs of deputy marshals have been sworn in for service at the polls in Richmond, Va., on election day. Let every Democrat vote the straight Democratic ticket from' Presidential elector down to coroner. a wild wail: A Blaine Organ Unfurls the Blood t Shirt in this Style. The following wild effusion, which is without a word of truth to base it upon, is trom tne Washington Critic: Intelligence has. reached this citv from Mississippi of the most alarming character. It seems, from what has been communicated to gentlemen in this city, who have correspondents in Mississippi in a position to know what is going on, that a general crusade has bjen entered upon against Re publican nominees for 'Congress and all who support them, and bloodshed and massacre may be looked for at any moment. Mr. Lynch, Republi can candidate for Congress in the bloody Copiah district, has been com pelled, to cancel all his engagements in that county and has had to 'flee for his life. And it is said that lead ing bulldozers openly declare that if Blaine and Logan are elected they shall be confronted by a Democratic House, made so peaceably if it can be done, but forcibly if it must be so. Colored Republicans all through the State are quaking for their lives, and a veritable reign of terror pervades the entire State.- - People in the ; free States have no conception of the con dition of affairs down there, and what the result is to be no one knows.' One thing is certain : The present condi tion of affairs in that State cannot last. Either the South will . enter upon a period of chaotic anarchy, such as the world never saw, or there must be a return to peaceful, legal and constitutional methods. Other wise our boasted Republic is a failure. and we might as well choose a dicta tor," who will enforce the law. and protect the helpless at all ; hazards and to the last extremity. If we must nave Killing, let us nave it done legally and with due reverence to the forms and ceremonies of all civilized nations , . We know that it is idle to threaten brave men, v and - we concede that Southern men are as braye as any the sun shines on ; but it must be apparent to the most obtuse that the Nation cannot permit its faithful adherents to be murdered and disfranchised without intervening in their behalf. If; it does, it is worthy only of the contempt of mankind. It is, then, no longer a nation a ;- government, but it is a chaotic mass or people in a chronic condition of insurrection. And insurrection must be put down and peace restored at all hazards and at every cost. The law abiding States cannot permit tne present condition of affairs to continue, tor it may in volve them in woes unutterable. Peace and justice must be secured at every cost. , A $50,000 VERDICT.
