grg- The people of the Brazos River, Texas, have
held n convention, over which Mr.. j. B. Miller pre-
sided the object of which was to promote the
novigotion of that stream. The report of the com
mittee appointed to recommend the best moce 10
attain the desired object presents the subject in
very favorable light. ID is estimated that SoOOO'
iudiciousy expended, is a sufficient sum to clear
the river of all the distractions from the mouth to
the Hidalgo Falls, few mile above Washington
The committee apportion this sum out among The
counties interested, and recommend that books be
opened for subscriptions. Two Iight-draught, sub
tantal steamboats, designed expressly for this river
are now being built above Pittsburg.

CROPS IN ALBANIA letter dated Sumter
county, October II, to the Mobile Herald and
Tribune, makes the following remarks
"The corn crop in gathering is found to be very
good-and the unusually favorable season viii
cause the cotton crop to exceed the expectations OF
the most sangune few weeks ago. | am begin
ming to think it will be fair average; and you
know from my former guesses, that my opinion is
worthy Of regard because for the last three years
INV estimates made as early as the middle of No
vember, have been every year within less than
5000 bales of the Mobile receipts, except that after
the great flood last year in December. In conse'
ouence of that calamity ! amended my estimates
hv 40 600 bales 1t is yet too early to venture al
estimate of your receipts for the present season
but in due time you shall have one; but will rst
this much-that the receipts will, believe, be
ouite up to the general estimates"

PENNsYLyANIA.-In order that gentlemen who
delight in betting may make their calculations
with skill and caution, we would inform them that
of the lhirty-six counties of Pennsylvania from
which full returns have reached us, excluding
Philadelphia city and county, Johnson has lO4,l7O
and Longstreth 105, 434 While in the same coun-
Ties in the Presidential election of 1874, Polk had
1903 $50 votes, and Clay 1913, 59l-showing in these
counties an actual decrease of the entire vote Of
1916, and an absolute falling of Of the democratic
vote Of 3l55, and an absolute gain the wing vote
of $40. Among the counties included in this cal
cuaton, is SchuyIkiii; in this county in 1874, the
vote stood for Polk 34O4, for Clay 257l; this year
for Longstreth 1888, for Johnston 4264-showing
that the democratic vote has increased l34 and the
wing 1898 This great increase proves concIu-
svely that if augmentation of population be the
test of prosperity the coal region Of Pennsylvania Is
very prosperous.l In Philadelphia city and county
the increase on 1874 Is 1921, increase at the
rate of over eleven per cent If the increase
throughout the State has been one-fourth as rapid
it is apparent that many thousand votes were moi
polIed Now the question for the interested Il
solve is, can this vote be brought outin November
so, how will it go There gentlemen is chance
to calculate, and a wide margin for speculation.
