THE COUNTRY'S BUSINESS UNPRECEDENTED PROSPERITY. Trio most Ueinarkable I'ear on Ke cord—Tire Volume of Legitimate llusines* Beyond alt Precedent— 'l ire Products or the Moil— Wbat tlie Loudon “Times” Sy. New York, December 31.—The Svening Express, in 1(3 rbuui! review of ihe pust year’s business of the country, says: “Viewed from a business standpoint, the year has been a remarkable one—probably the uio.-t rtmukable lu the history of the country. There has been a great revival in trade, and the volume of legitimate business during the year was beyoud all precedence. This improved condition of affairs was the natural results of large crops, good export demands for our products, the growth of the country, the heavy influx of gold from Europe, and the complete restoration cf confidence, growing out cf the success cf specie payment. One of the most gratriyieg features of IbSu has been the great falUug off In the Dumber of failures and Ihe amount of liabilities of suspended mer chants. The growth of the country and ihe U;ge additions to the national wealth during 1830 are strikingly Illustrated In the products of the soil, of which we raised: Wheat bushels 4t£,OCO.OCO born 155,000.000 Kye, 24 000,00 c i r ‘ey 4(’,C00,000 Cotton bales 6,u00.v0(J to say nothing of tobacco, sugar, rice, hemp, hay and other crops, and hogs and dairy products, which yield an immense sum oi money, in the aggregate. In plain words, the United States t r.w raises enough to feed her own 50,000 000 of people and to supp'y the dtficiency to the balance of tne civiliz-d world. During the year more miles of railroad have been built, more consolidations and combinations bare been entered' into, more freight and passengers have been transported, more money has been earned, aud more interest and dividend paid than in any former year. The commerce of ttip country during the year has made rapid progress, and caused the United Slates to take still higher rank, being now the third amoug the commercial nations of the globe.” London, December 31.— The Tiroes in its financial ariiclo this morning says: “The year of ISbO has beeu one of solid business In most directions, and of foolish spccu lat'oas in very few. The beginning only of the speculative period has been reached, and it may be years before we teach Us height. From all appearances, both France and the United States are far ahead cf us in this direction. Oa tbetn, principally, the duration of time of quiet, business activity would seem to depend. Tee prodigious absorption of capital in public works now going on iu France may lead 'o tcmpcriiiliy unpleasant results to speculators for a rise, but the new year will be begun hopeful y, and such is the temper of the stock markets that a still higher rar ge of prices need surprise nobody.” FINANCE AM) TRADE. The :Ve- York Stock Market—The Eogilah Grain and Provision Market. Ni:w Yoke, December 31.—The stock market opened generally firmer, but subae qu ntly became weak, the general list sell ing off }i to 1 per cent., while Central Pacific declined 6 per cent. Toward noon speculation assumed a firmer tone, and under brisk purchases prices advanced steadily throughout the afternoon, and became quite buovant In the late dealings, when the ad vance from the lowest point of the morning was 5*4 per cent, in Central Pacific and to 2 per cent iu the general list, the latter in New Jersey Central. Pacific Mall, alter an earlv decline of per cent., rose to 25*, but closed at an advance of 2 per cent. In diana, Bloomington and Western advanced ojs p: r cent. The transactions aggregated 3211,000 st ares. London, December 31.—The Manchester Gaurd'arr, in its commercial article this morning, says: “The market is quiet. No large business anywhere is reported. The demand for India is perhapt not quite so good as it was earlier in the w..tk, but producers, as a lule, are so well engaged with previous contracts in this department that there is no weak ness or increased de ire to aell. For China there is still some inquiry, though generally at Impracticable fates. Home trade Is im proving slightiy, especially for Ireland, bat the improvement is slow.” In Minciug Lane during the past week, though business was of course small lu con stqueuce of the interruption caused by the holidays and the absence of dealers, sugar showed a slrong tendency with a good it quiry for brown for E ustern ports. C yde crushed was very li.-in with a diminished supplv. Coffee was in fair inquiry, and rates were firm. A floating cargo of fair to good chan nel quality was sskl at about sls. per cwt. for Nicrseiiles. 2,713 678 pounds of tea were delivered from the bonded warehouses in London during the past week. Liverpool, December 31. —The leading grain circular s*ys Wheat has been very quiet, but there is no decided change or pressure t sell. New grain continues to show a very unsatisfactory condition, requiring a large admixture of foreign before grinding. Maize was weaker. The home demand was small. At Liverpool stocks are exceedingly small of wheat, only 115,000 quariere, or ba-ely ten days’ consumption of maize 129,000 quarters, and of flour 90,000 sacks and barrels. The attendance to-day was fair. Wheat maintained Tuesday’s prices. Winter wheat and flour ia sacks were rather more buoyant. Other kinds were very slow. Corn again receded a penny.”

The txecu'iou was witnessed by a large crowd of whites and blacks, who evinced much curiosity and but little feeling. Change lu a Well Known Publish* Ing House.

Etc. Washington, December 2A— lt is generally remarked that the holidays are observed here this year with a lavishness not seen for many years—cot since the financial cra*h of 1873- The freedom with which money passes from hand to hand must indicate flush times with some class. The shepkeepers admit it to be an exceptionally prosperous season, and small wonder that tiiey do, for every store and shop and sla i has been besieged for weeks, until one is lost in wondering where ail the multi tude springs from. Tne display of toys is particularly brilliant, and the perfection ot artistic beauty seems to have been reached iu tlieir production. There is au increased demand for toys, also, within the past two years, because, from some caprice of fashion or custom, children ars al lowed to turn iuto the oid channels again and amuse themselves with “p’.ay things.” Five years ego dolls were almost a drug in the mar ket; now, there is as much of luxury and ele gance and expense in their make-up and estab lishments as (here is in that cf a society belle. In one of the most gorgeous windows is dis played a doll the size of a child cf ten, in full evening t.iiette of blue satin, and the modest price affixed was sixty dollars. Elsewhere there were a king and queen on a throne, at tended by the maids of honor nnd gentlemen in waiting an i all the paraphernalia of a court. There are dolls of every complexion and grade in society, from tlie exquisite lady of fashion in sweeping train and diamonds down to the little plantation da: key in his simple costume of a white shirt and broad-brimmed hat. The amount of money such presents as these represent is rather rtartliug except to me who never counts it as it passes from his purse One fittle Miss, the child of a prominent official, has received enough of the,e costly trinkets this Christmas from family friends and ac quaintAnces to st m:l for a considerable por tion of a respectable income or to keep a pauper family in raiment for a year. Most of the churches, especially the Episco pal and Ca the lie, were handsomely decorated for the season, and in th- greater proportion services were held on Chris mas morning, fit. John’s Episcopal and Epiphany are very hand some in moss and holly and evergreen. A great quantity of the beautiful fipanish moss from tne Southern woods is used in these decora tions, and nothing seems half so beautiful as the floating, waving, feathery mosses inter mingled with holly and mistletoe After the Congregation had finished the ornamentation of Epiphany, there was a wedding there—that of Miss Fsiinie McAllister, a daughter of Gen eral McAllister, and Willi rm fctanley P.ich mpnd, a New York t anker. 9 here is to be the usual number of open houses on New Year's day—even more than the usual number-it wouid teem from the ex tent of preparations. One ladv is to receive in her ball room, on immense hall opening into the conservatories, where the refreshment tables are to be spread, l’he ball room is to be banked with fiowers.tbe floors waxed for danc ing when the first crush is over, snd soft rich rugs laid about everywhere, and Ihe lights in the innumerable sconces are to have pale, rose colored shades, so that every one who mingle? in the brilliant compary is to wear, per force, a lovely and delicate blush. Ihe hostess, one or the handsomest matrons In Washing irigtou, is to receive, flanked by two lovely daughters, as opposite to each other in appear* aace as night and morning. ’lhe taller, a blonde, is to wear a floating robe of black tulle, not a spot of white about it. looped aud garlanded with scarlet fuchias and Marshal Neil roses, a costume unique and striking. The 01 her, a petite brunette, wears a dress of rose-clored grenadine over silk of the same shade, richly embellished wi'h hand painting. The drying this has been luxurious and beautiful. Everybody’ ha- new clothes and seems to enjoy them. The wife of the Russian Minister wore a costume at an enter tamrnent lately that was a marvel of beauty. It was imported from Worth, and coexisted of ombossed satin the color of old crusty P° rt inlaid with panels of cloth of gold. The wearer has reddish auburn hair and carried off the costume well Another drsss worn at a recent wedding -Tas a black satui t’e Lyon, the full truin line 1 with old gold satin, and the entire front width of old gold pmtn. On-of the sweetest women in the whole ci'y is a lady, the mother of married children, yet with no gray threads in her brown hair, who is descended from old Quaker stock, and who, though no Quaker herself, from some funta-tic eoueeit always dresses ia some fabric of silver gray. Perhaps it is be cause it is so infinitely becoming ihat it seems nothing less subdued would harmonize with the soft complexion and clear gray eyes and t.ie tones of tne jsrentl© voice. Ic is always the same-the heavie.-t of silvery silk and satin and velvet, the finest furs and feathers, the softest woolens, and sometimes, on some very fcsti>G occasion, a cloud of silver ffauzc or •.ulle over the shi ing silken robe, uutil she looks as though enwrapped in a morning mist, B ihe rew evening trains are very long and full, and made without any stiff facings They are lined with satin in themostdelicate shades and are so soft and limp thut, they twist and fold up briiind the wearer and turning over dis play the handsome linings. Scai let bonnets are seen everywhere on both blonde and brunette, as is also that phan tom of horror, the old gold bonnet, which in shape and color reminds the beholder of noth ing so irresistib'y as a mustard p aster. Pennsylvania avenue is the place to see the world of Washington in its gayest mood It Hones-ream if carriages and promenaders from noon until late at night. Here ate all ihe handsomest turnouts in town nnd the most distinguished people. The Bartolomeis the Russian Minister, and wife, are a fine cok ing couple they have rmted E lgewood Mrs Sprague's liom*, for the winter, and she’ is to take a house iu town. The President and wife also drive ouf fre quently and, General Gai field is often seen with -.orne of his colleagues on the avenue, but his wife but seldom. Senator Lamar is one of ihe most elegant and peculiarly handsome men that juc catches a glimpse of, and is often seen driv ing here. The Hon. Koscoe Colliding is almost perpetually on exhibition, always faultlessly gotten up, and seemingly conscious and pleased at the attention he excites. He is one of the handsomest types f manhood, and one could hardly imagiue him growing common or peo ple getting tirei of seeing him dashing about Of courre all the patrons of the drama in Washington consider it their bounden duty to go to Baltimore to see Bernhardt, and of course all are properly indignant that she does not come to Washington to allow them to be hold her b math their own vines and figtrees as it were. A fashionable Galtimore lady who has been visiting in Washington this winter, who is accustomed to lead in her own ciro e, and wno makes it a point to entertain every lion who crosses her path, be it a great foreigner ora smalt home made lion, chuckled with inward delight when Bernhardt set her foot on these shores, for Sarah boro letters from dis inguished people abroad, some of them to this very laty, and this free-born American had predetermined togi-ehera magnificent reception that should be th- ta k of the day. But in steps the husband, a club man and also a shining light in society, and in a spasm of virtuous indignation puts a veto at oi.ee upon all these full blown plans. II wife should never touch the hand of such as Bernhardt, ad his house should never extend to her the welcome of an honored guest. But when Sarah played in New York, this severely exemplary husband found urgent business in that city, and when thus away from tkp watchful eyws of his spouse turned up as onu of a select dozen who gave a dinner to tne fair artiste There is a large increase in the Washington population this year, attributable in part to the fact that nsw buildings have been erected where rooms are leased in flat s convenient for housekeeping in quite a respectable manner The boardiDg houses of Washington have long been proverbial for their discomfort and extortions, and many officials, expecting to be here for only a short term, have been content to leave their families behind and “loaf" about the c;ty, leading a Bohemian sort of a life in spite of themsel since the subject of rents was such an impor tant item that it was out of the question to tiring on the “womenUiud," take ahouse and go to housekeeping in regular order. Luring the past summer the Hon. Fernando Wood hushed a block on J sireet, nearhisown residence, and the flats were all taken before the building was completed. Another large block kas been finished on Fourteenth and Vermont avenues and tf ese flats have been eagerly sought a'ter The rents are much less than the same apart ments would command in the Eastern cities and the demimd for this style of habitation is such that the architects are overrun with contracts for the j-ame kind pf work tc, be com mi nced in the .prim?. Th Grant Luhby, or rather the General ad his wife have gone through their usual round of eating and drinking and being merry during thtir visit here. They were the guests of Gen eral Beale, who gave them a diuuer tha first day of their arrival. The President and Mrs Hayes followed suit, and then Senat r Carpet ter dined them, as did alsq Mr. and Mrs John B Alley. Mis.

Jlcu’s. NO. 3 WHITAKER STREET, 040RNI.N0 NEWS BUILDING). J. n. ESTILL, Proprietor. W. T. THOMPSOS, Editor. BA.TCRDAY, JANUARY 1, th£l. TtPPOKi THE WIRKsi The New York £bening Expicas, in Its annual review of the past year’s business, says that it has been the most remarkable one in the history o? the country. During its progress more railroads have been built, more freight and passengers have been transported, more money earned, and more interest and dividends paid, than in any former year. This happy condition of ailur3 is attributed to good crops, the growth of the country, the heavy influx of gold from abroad, and the complete restora tion of confidence, the outgrowth of the success of the resumption of specie pay ments. The summer residence of James D. Keene, of Newport, was destroyed by fire yesterday morning. Several thousand dol lars worth of pictures were saved. The house and contents were valued at SIOO,OOO. Insurance upward* of $50,000. The military correspondent of the Irish Times writes that the authorities contemplate the immediate dispatch of a flying column over the country, as wss done during the Fenian rising. Tne steamer Plowboy, loaded with one hundred bales of cotton, for New Orleans, sunk at Pine Bluff Thursday evening. The boat is a total loss, but efforts are being made to save the cotton. The attendance at court at the trial of the traversers ia Ireland was much fuller yes terday than on preceding days. The At torney General resumed his address, In which he stated that the principles taught by the agitators were called American principles, but they were more properly to be called Red Ilepubliean'sm and Nihilism. When he concluded there was no manifesta tion of any kind. Three hundred land meetings are to bo held on Sunday next. Neither Mr. Parnell nor any of the traversers will participate in them, however. A large meeting of land owners aud tenant farmers was held at Enniskillen, county Fermagb, yesterday, at which the Land League was denounced. The Windsor Hotel of Atlantic City caught on fire yesterday from the heater in the cellar. The flames soon spread to the Dullmore House next door, and both houses were destroyed. The loss will aggregate (40,000. A dispatch from Rjme states that the Vatican has sent peremptory commands to certain of the Iri>h Bishops to abstain from language tending to cause the belief that the Pope approves the operations of the Land League. The dally mail train on the Potomac, Fredericksburg and Piedmont Railroad, which left Fredericksburg Wednesday morning, has not yet been ht ard from, all communication being cut oil by the snow. The District Governor of Orenburg, Ras s!a, has resigned because the central au thorities refund to provlie 500,000 rubles to relievo the distress of the inhabitants of the proviatC who are starving to death by the hundred. The anti Conkling men aie felicitating themselves upon the fact that several burdens have lately been placed upon the shoulders of the “senior Senator,” that may prove to overweight hi n. The recent attempt to provide a iund for ex President Grunt and its failure, and his supposed connection w ith the Sprague divorce case, taken together with his unnecessary antagonism to the ad ministration, to say nothing of his sup posed attempt to dictate terms to the New Y'ork Central Railway and thus prevent the election of Dcpewtot.be Senate, may aggregate too great a load to ire success fully borne. He has arrived at a stage of the political game when a defeat in any one'of his plans will weaken his power, and when his grasp’ upon the political management of New York is once loosened, he will very rapidly lose the power that he has so long held by autocratic force of character and by in spiring his subjects with a wholesome fear of him and his methods. Granges Advice to Southern Plan xers. —A correspondent of the Patron of Husbandry, in urging Southern plan ters to raise as much as possible their own food supplies, says: “On the 10th of last June I planted five and a half acres in corn, and paid sll 50 to culti vate and gather it; aud it cost me eight cents per bushel in the crib. I sold to a neighher one hundred bushels of this corn for SBS; he paid me money that he got for his cotton at eight cents net— that is he gave ine Hi pounds of cotton for a bushel of com. Now, a good man with proper tools and a good team can raise and put in the crib 2,000 bushels of corn, and if he could exchange it at the same price that I got he would get bales of cotton, averaging 400 pounds each.” The Oklahoma invaders now claim that they do not wish or intend to en croach upon the Indian reservation fur ther than to cross a strip fifty-seven miles in width, in order that they may settle upon certain lands held by the United States Government and containing about 14,000,000 acres of arable land, from which the Indians heinselvea have been debarred by legislation attached to the appropriation bills. If the government persists m denying them this privilege— or right, as they term it—then they pro pose to go through, even though an In dian war should follow. Several Con gressmen from Kansas, Arkansas, 3lis souri and Texas are said to be heart and eoul with the enterprise. Trouble may be looked for. Consul Bee, who represents China in San Francisco, La3 just visited Denver for the purpose of making an investiga tion of the anti election Chinese riot in that town, in which a number of the Mongolians r.ere so roughly handled, and their houses and property destroyed. He estimates the loss at SIOO,(KW. and has alrcidv secured claims from China men amounting to three-fourths of this sum. The sufferers Beem to have been very moderate in their claims; one third of the loss is credited to money stolen by the mob, another third to linen, etc., belonging to their patrons, aud which was lost in the riot, while their claims for houses, personal property, etc., amounts to less than $25,000. The African King of Uganda, of whose conversion to Christianity the veracious Btanley was, under Providence, the hum ble means, will have to be hereafter known as Mtesa, the Apostate. The royal savage has backslidden. Even Mohammedanism doesn’t suit him. He has relapsed into utter heathenism, and threatens to massacre all the missionaries he can lay hold of. The Smali.-Pox in New Y'ork —The New York Express says: “A case of small-pox was discovered in Castle Gar den Monday, aud naturally excited a great deal of alarm. The scourge is get ting to be altogether too prevalent in the city, although s' yet it has not de veloped with sufficient virulence to cause fear of an epidemic.” j 1881. Old Father Time has completed another of his cycles called years, and, having bid farewell to 1880, wc to day enter upon the new year 1881. The year just passed has been a re markable one. Though characterized by peace aud prosperity throughout nearly the entire globe, it ha3 nevertheless wit nessed some important scenes, which may materially affect the world's his tory ia the near future. It has seen iu Europe a complete change in the character of the government of Great Britain, and the inauguration of an agitation in that realm which, be fore it ends, will probably result in material changes iu old established customs and laws, if ia nothing more serious. Ia America, we have been blessed wifli good crops, a revival of business on solid basis and general pros perity which continues unabated to the present moment. Besides this, we have passed through an exciting politi cal canvass, and have witnessed the election of another Chief Magistrate of the Union, to be inaugurated early in the present year, and whose administra tion will perhaps play an important part in determining the destiny of the conn try. Therefore, though not specially marked by excitement or sensation, in the year 1830 the foundation for a future of unusual interest has been laid. 1881 is ushered in amid circumstances well calculated to inspire hope in the entire country; but especially in the South. Throughout the past season our farmers have produced, in the main, good crops, for which they have re ceived satisfactory prices, aud, as a re suit, they have prospered, and their good fortune has made itself felt throughout our section. But this is by no means the most important event which has tran spired to inspire the South with hope for the future. Tbc peculiar circumstances surrounding the receut Presideniial elec tion have opened the eyes of the South ern people to their true interests. Here tofore they have been relying too much —in fact almost entirely—upoa su ppos ed frieuds at the North. These supposed fricuds deserted them at the very moment when their alliance and friendship were counted on, and this desertion has taught the people of our section that they must henceforth rely on themselves. It Las further caused them to realize that they contain within themselves the means of true independence, aud has given rise to a determination to develop their re sources and guard well their material interests. If this determination is well taken aud adhered to, the South will have no cause to regret the treachery to which we have alluded, and one year hence will see her on the high road to wealth and power. We can, therefore, enter upon the year just begun with a feeling of confidence and hope. Trusting that a kind and beneficent Providence will watch over our common country, and permit this hope to be speedily lest in fruition, and assuring our readers that the News will faithfully strive to do its part towards bringing about so happy a consumma tion, we wish them all a Happy New Year. Colonel McClure’s. Letters. We have published several of the let ters of Colonel A. K. McClure, of the Philadelphia Tines, during his recent Southern tour. Without exception, so far as we have seen, these letters arc all well written, and have not only proven interesting and instructive, but have, for the first lime, made public facts regard ing this section which must open the eyes of the Northern people to the true condition of affairs in ihe South, and the falsity of the charges which have been so frequently made against us by our stalwart enemies. His last letter was written from Cin cinnati, and is a summing up of the im pressions created by his Southern tour. In it he speaks of the present political disposition of our people, the past dif ficulties with which they have had to contend, and the prospects of vast wealth and material prosperity in store for them iu the future, together with “the supreme want and greatest peril” of the South. It is probably the most interesting of the series, and is ar? follows: “The South is not animated by partisan hos tility to the coming President. On the con trary, there is every disposition to commend r.ne support cordially and to blame with re luctance. There is no desire tocommand the spoils of power, but there is an earnest and al most universal desire for peace—that peace that honest government should ever give to an honest people. The supreme want of the South is a thoroughly competent and upright civil service, aud ihat should net be sought as a favor from any faithful President. It is not only a matter a right to every section, but it is a matter of imperative duty on the part of the government. “A vast preponderance of tho turbulence that baa disgraced the Sonth during the last deeada has been created by characterless, un scrupulous and often reckless: y dishonest Fed eral officials. United States Judges have been appointed because of their bitter hostility to the South, who would not be charged with the administraiion of justice in the Sorih. Marshals have been selected mainly for their wiiiiugness to prostitute their official power to foment sectional strife, to oppress un offending citizens anl to pollute elections. Postmasters have been appointed who were utterly incompetent, in some instances living unable to read or write, merely because they were potential in demoralizing and controll ing the ignorant blacks. Customs and reve nue officers have been selected to make ihe collection of revenue secondary to the corrupt control of elections. United States Commis sioners have united with District Attorneys and Marshals to plunder the government by the wautoa vexation of struggling business interests in tha South, aud tr.e special agencies of the government ate crowded with noted criminals as rewards fornoted political crimes. In sevsral of the Southern States I found con victs. fugitives and outlaws oujoying tho pa tronage of the administration, and inviting public contempt for government and law by their shameless distinction. This Wot—not upon the South, but upon the North, whose administration is guilty of its creation-has lasted with more or less prominence for a doz en years, and it has been the most fruitful cf all tho many fruiiful sources of sectional tur bulence. “The one great peril to the Sourii, for which I can see no immediate remedy, is the now in evitable division of tho white vote of the South, and the certain appeal of contending factions to the blacks as the arbiter of is puthig ambition. 1 have until recently shared the very general belief of the North, that the division of the white vote of the South must be fortunate for the black voters, as it would create rivalry in extending the fullest protec tion to the blacks. lam now thoroughly con vinced against g!l pty wishes, that the neces sary and now near division of tho whjtea will be fruitful of great demoralization to both racoa. aud that it will be the severest trial of the wisdom of universal suffrage. There is now nothing to demora ize the black man, or to divert him from his industry and the educa tion of his children. He is rapidly becoming the owner or lessee of lands, and Is his own farmer, and is, i|) many instances, accumulit ieg wealth with habits of industry' bid when the white man locks b or us with his fellow in the battle of ambition, the most artful d-ina g gues will bpst control the ignorant frerdmen and the degradation of both paces must fo low. The factory and the school must be the great civilizer of the South, and I am glad to see that Northern and Southern Radicals agree In the United States Senate In nationalizing edu cation. It is needed iu the South to an extent far beyond what is generally understood in the North, and there will be no material elevation of the black raen qqtiltbe ignorant classes of bzth whites and blacks can ba educated. There is cordial sympathy, as a rule, between the intelligent whites and the blocks—much more than there is between the whites and blacks in tho North. “The manufacturers of the North must soon go South with their cotton spindles and looms, and those who go earliest will reap the richest harvest. Those who say that capital is nos safe in the South either know not what they say or mean to be untruthful. In every South ern State there is a supreme desire to have the factory everywhere that the raw materia is furnished. The cotton crop of this year will bo worth three hundred millions of dollars, and when simply spun into yarn will be worth near ly three hundred millions more Where in all tr o world is there so wide and so tempting a field for legitimate enterprise and large profits? I believe that half the whole cotton product will he spuu in the South before another ten years, and ikC fUO&eedlng decade will furnish South ern factories for foe entire crop.” It adds to the terrors of the approach ing Sprague divorce suit that the ex- Governor has engaged General B. F. Butler as one of his counsel. It is safe to say no prurient detail of the forthcom ing scandal will escape the malevolent ingenuity of this notorious advocate. THE WORM-PJIOOF COTTON. Mr, L. C. Whitt** Wonderful Dl covcrjr of W'bicb mo Mach la Heine Said— W here It Grown, Hour U Ma ture* aud What the People Think of 11. Jasper (Texas) Newsboy. This worm proof, extia prolific, rapid growing and early maturing cotton, whose fame has already spread through out the American continent, and beyond llie seas among the French and English and in Spain and ludia, was grown and mixed with native weeds in the quiet litile village of Jasper. The land on which this cotton was grown has been in cultivation ever since 1824, and is said to be the first spot of land ever cleared and cultivated in Jas per county. The land (not by any means a fair representation of East Texas so;!, for we have much better) is a sandy hillside, with a slope of about six feet in a distance of seveuty-five yards, aud is too poor for anything but goober peas, grapes and hybrid cotton. Mr. White first begau experimenting with the hybridizing method in 1562, since which time he has made a success of his undertaking, and has given it the test on every hand, it bearing out even beyond his most sanguine expectations. The cotton has now been thoroughly hybridized for three years, each crop ping season of which a crop has been raised, and though worms have ravaged the cotton farms in close proximity to it, and worms have been placed on the growing plant, they have never dined upon its foliage. Mr. White has gathered one hundred and eighty two matured, open bolls from one staik of the second crop of this sea son, which is elaborately explained in the following, which appeared in the Newsboy about two months since: “The hybrid cotton is all right.

We regret to note a very serious and ex ceedingly painful accident to our t steemed citizen, and very efficient Clerk of the Market, Mr. Henry L. Davis, which oc curred yes’erday morning. Mr. Davis was attending to his usual duties in the Market, ju-t before the closing hour, when he unfortunately stepped upon a piece of Ice (some water thrown on the bricks near a stall having frozen) and tumbled heavily to the ground. He 6truck upon his left knee, splitting the kneepan and kuocking it out of joint, causing a very painful and serious injury. lie was sssisted to the office and a physician sum moned. Subsequently he was removed to his residence, c >rner of Bull and New Houstou streets, where he received the best surgical attention. It is probable Mr. Davis will be coufined to bis house for a few weeks, but it is hoped the injury will not be permanent, and that he will soon recover the use of his leg. In his afibetton he has the full sympathy of many warm friends, scores of whom called on him during the day as soon as the accident was known. The Theatre. A fair audience in the parquette and dres g circle and a big family circle and gallery greeted the first appearance at the Theatre last evening of Henry Miner and Pat Roomey’s Consolidated Combination. Tht entertainment Is of the variety order, and is very good of the kind, some of the features introduced being very amusing. The house seemed pleased and were prodigal in their •ucores. The company comprises excellent -rtists in the specialty line, and, creditably, u.ay be noticed Tommy and Annie Dayton, Jpppie D dand, and Miss Georgle Kaine and Pat Rooney, who is an excellent cari caturist. The petite Miss Katie R >oney, who is a veritable pocket editiou of the ini mitable Pat, was enthusiastically applauded. The compauy will gtve a matinee this after noon and a farewell performance to-night. Foreign Shipment*. Messrs.

All our roads seem to be doing a prosperous business this winter, and we are glad to see It.” A Handsome Compliment. The employes of the machinist depart ment of the Savannah, Florida and \Ve6tern Railway, learning of the resignation of Mr. Charle3 Collins, the efflclent and popular Master Machinist, who has filled the post tion 60 honorably for many years, de termined to testify their appreciation of and esteem for him as a man in a substantial manner. A committee was appointed, of which Mr. J. T. Murtagh was chairman, and a fuLd being raised by voluntary subscription, a very elegant gold headed cane was purchased at Mr. 8 F. Hamilton's jsweliy store, which was ee lected as the testimonial. Last night about nine o’clock, the employes to the number of over one hundred and fifty, assembled at ihe hall of the Irish Jasper Greens and, ac companied by the Mechanics Brass Bind, proceeded to the residence of Mr. Collies, and complimented him with a fine serenade They were iuvited in, when Mr. F. M. Readick, on bc-balf of the employes, pre sented the cane in a very neat and well timed address, referring to the long and pleasant connection of Mr. Collins as Master Machinist, and wishiog him prosperity and success in the new field oa which he is about to ente coupled with the usual greetings of the New Year. Mr. Collies was very visibly affected, but recovering from his surprise, returned his acknowledgments for the un expected and appreciated compliment in a few felicitous remarks. The party were then very generously and hospitably entertained, and an hour was passed soelab’y and pleasantly. The head of the cane bears the foilowiug Inscription: Presented to CHARLES COLLINS, Master of Machinery, S F. A W. Ry Cos., December 31st, 1880. After leaving Mr. Collins' the party pro eecded to toe residences of Colonel H. 8. Haines, the General Manager of the com pany, of Captain P. N.

Brief mention was made in the News of yesterday that Daniel Green, colored, had reported at the police barracks that two colored men ha 1 been frozen to death on Thursday at Dr. Waring’s plantation. The Coroner was notified, and yester day held an inquest, at which the following facts were elicited; A boat from Hilton Head bound to Savannah, and containing some five or six colored per sons, was capsized in the river near the plantation named, and the men were thoroughly dreuehed. The day, it will be remembered, was bitter’ cold, and the men were in the water sufficiently long to be thoroughly chilled through. Four of the party managed to reach a place of shelter; but two of them, Captain Singleton and Cuffee Dotson, were so exhausted that they were unable to pro ceed any distance, and were completely overcome by the cold. They were found dead, as sta’ed, on Ihe plantation, near the river. The Coroner’s jury rendered a ver dict in accordance with the fact#. At Batin’* SoMV. illHi Bull Street.

The Columbus Enquirer gives the follow ing particulars iu relation to the purchase of the old Memphis and Savannah Railroad by President Wadley, of which brief men tion was made a day or two since. Says that paper “On last Saturday Col, W. M. Wadley, President of the Central Railroad, purchased the Columbus and Western—formerly the Memphis and Savannah Railroad. The price paid is something over #7OO 000. All will be glad to learn that it has fallen Into such management, for althouth Columbus was Interested to the amount of? 100,000, comparative small benefit have we derived. The road extends from Opelika to Good water. Ala through one of the richest countl-s in Alabama. It Is one of the best located roads in Alabama. “Some time ago it was sold to the bond holders, when the name was changed to that which forms the caption to this article, The purchasers (the bondholders) have been negotiating with Colonel Wadley and asso ciates for some time past, but not until lest Saturday was a trade effected. “Yesterday morning Col. Wadley passed through our city eu route for Opelika. His mlsslou Is to go over the road in order to see that everything is as represented in the bill rendered.

Mr. Wade Is known to us all to be an upright “itizeu. Go to the polls to-day, men of the sourth district, and vote for him. The district is sadly in need of an upright Magistrate.

Yesterday opened quite cold, though the temperature was milder than on the prece ding day. Towards noon the sky became overcast with leaden clouds and there were Indications of snow, aud the wind shifted northeast. About dusk there was a fall of flakes of snow, which, however, was fcarcely perceptible, and eoon resolved into sleet, which froze as It fell on the side walk, rendering predestrlauism rather risky, and several slip ups are recorded. About 11 o’clock last night rain set iu and continued falling until a late hour, the prospects being favorable for a cold, rainy New Year. Scarcity oi Fuel. There is a great scarcity of both wood and coal in the city at present, and dealers have considerable trouble In filling orders. There is a full supply of certain grades of coal, but of others there is a scarcity. Wood dealers inform us that they have plenty of oak and pine on the lines of railroad, but. in consequence of the very unfavorable weather are unable to have It cut and loaded, It being difficult In some cases to obtain transportation. There has, however, been uo increase in prices, and it Is thought the fuel market will be booming In a short time. Guilty of Wrong. Some people have a fashion of confusing excellent remedies with the large mats of “patent medicines,” and in thi* they are guilty of a wrong. There are some advertised remedies fully worth ail that is asked for them, and one at least we know of—Hop Bitters. The writer has had occasion to use the Bit ters in just such a climate as we have most of the year lu Bay City, and has always found them to be first-class and reliable, dolDg all that is claimed for them.

REVENUE DECISIONS. Important to Dealer* lu Tobatao and cigar*. United States Inijsenal Revenue, Collector’s Office, Third District, Georgia, Savannah, December 30 —Editor Morning Stum: For tbe information of dealers In leaf tobacco and cigar manufac turers, I hand you herewith for publication a copy of letter addressed by the Hon. Commissioner of Internal R2Trnu3 to J. D. Harvey, E.-q Collector of the First District of Illinois, and published in the Internal Ravenne Record, volume xxvi., number 51, page 401, Very respectfully, Edward C. Wade, Collector. Treascbt Department, Opficx of Internal Revenue, Washington, December 15, 1880. J, D. Harvey, Esq., Collector First District, Lhieago, IU.: Sir —I am In receipt of your letter of the 9th Instant, enclosing a communication ad dressed to you by J. Friedman, a leaf dealer ia your district. Mr. Friedman solicits a decision from this office upon tbe question whether marked or actual weights of leaf tobacco are to be entered by leaf dealers in their leaf books, and if actual weights are to be entered, he wishes to be Informed how this term is to be applied to tobacco that has been resweated by the leaf dealer, and sold in such a state to cigar manufacturers. I reply that the law requires (see section 3360 U. 8. Revised Statutes) that every dealer in leaf tobacco shall make dally en try In two books, kept for that purpose, of the number of hogsheads, cases and pounds of leaf tobacco purchased or re ceived by him on consignment, transfer, or otherwise, and of the number of hogs heads, cases or pounds sold by him, etc. The weight of the tobacco in pounds at tbe time of purchase, and at the time of sale, is to be entered iu the leaf dealer’s book. The terms “marked weight,” “ac tual weight” and “resweated tobacco” are not recognized In the law. Nor does the law establish any standard for measuring t"e proportion of moisture ia leaf tobacco; nor does it recognize changes in its con dition produced by evaporation or absorp tion of moisture. The process of resweit iDg is not a process of manufacture. Any addition to the weight of the leaf by tbe resweating process becomes part and parcel of the leaf. As the leaf dealer is required by law to enter daily in his books the num ber of pounds purchased, so he is required to enter daily the number of pound# sold, together with the name aud residence, In each instance, of the purchaser. He cannot, in any case, be allowed to sell one hundred pounds of resweated tobacco and enter it in hla book, and bill It to the manufacturer as eighty or eighty-five pounds, or a? any other number of pounds less than one hundred. Any discrepancy appearing iu a leaf deal er’s books between the aggregate amount of his purchases and sales rcu?t be balanced by an entry of the increase or loss in weight, as the case may be. All tobacco reported by cigar manufacturers is required by the regulations to be the actual weight of the leaf, and Is assumed to be tobacco iu Its normal condition, unless the tobacco is resweated, and evidence of that fact is fur nished to the Collector at the time it is re ported. Any other mode of making entries by leaf dealers and manufacturers than that 0/ the actual w-eight of the leaf tobacco at the time of purchase and at the time of sale, would leave this officer in uncertainty ou what ba sis to compute tbe productiou from the qnantiiy cf leaf tobacco reported as used by the manufacturer. If thl3 rule is strictly compiled with, cigar manufacturers will have no difficulty in ob talcing from this office all the allowance they are entitled to receive when they pur chase and use resweated tobacco. Respect ful’y, Grbk.v B. Raum, Commissioner. Reliable. It is useless to deny the great curative effects of Simmons’ Liver Regulator. Its virtues are attested by thousands who have used the medicine, and it is now largely in demand. It commends itself to the public by its component parts being entirely vege table, no injurious effects from its use,being pleasant to the taste, aud its operation upon the liver being perfect, at the same time so imperceptible that it interferes with neither business nor pleasure. dec2B Tu,Tii,S,w&Teltt Dciiaou’* Caprine Porous Plaster Is a remarkable article.
