THE RICE EIERCE QUESTION.

A correspondent OF the Georgetown Times
answers the several communications that have
been published assailing the action of the
Charleston rice dealers. he says:
The agitation upon the subject of the rice
t!erces began by the rice buyers of the city re-
tuslng to purchase rice with the charge for
casks added. To this the factors responded
pound be then added to cover the price of The
cask, which, estimatin z the net weight of a
cask OF rice at 600 lbs, would be Just the same
as the Charge for the cask. To this demand
OF May were conducted in that manner and
ever since. As the buyers had made one move
towards new system in the rice market,
another was originated by the factors. They
allowed by the public weighers for tref should
be disallowed for the future. Then instead of
loosing 81 so per cask, the planter gains lbs.
OF rice per cask by the new ,syst tenn. Now it
tor the factor to say that the buyer would give
! cent per lb. more for the rice. But any
business man can see how they can afford to
90 IL. A buyer receives an order from New
rice is sold without charge for casks.l Is it not
patent then that in making his estimate to AN
his order that he must include the cost Of the
ordered, all expenses have to be put, so that
the same 81 so or / cent per Id. are Counted.
NoI does any one suppose that q factor cogni-
zant Of this fact, would consent to loss OF
u 6Oper cask, purely for the beneiit Of the rice
buyer3 Or leaving out the fact that he is
bound to do bis best for his patron, would he
be willing to loose his commissions ON the
81 80 per cask on the entire rice he receives for
sale2 Another feature here presents itself.
1t is we'll known that Georgetown rice will run
over the 600 lbs. per cask, and every pound so
running over is cent gained by the planter.
Taking an average of ten lots OF rice received
nom Georgetown, the writer fines the average
is GIT lbs. per cask. This shows gain OF "A
cents per cask for the planter.
1t has been asked why is it that the buyers
is anxious for the change. will answer SIMPLY
for the facilitation of business. In all The
cities Of the United States, except Charleston
and Savannah no charge for the casIs is made,
market correspond with the others.

NEWS FROM WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, May 28.-No political or gov
ernment business to-day ON account Of the
decoration.
It is understood that the directors Of the
chesapeake and Ohio Railroad have arranged
with Northern capitalists for the immediate
completion of the road to Ohio.
The Central Pacific Railroad has deposited
four millions security for bringing the road up
to first class.
Lake Sibley advices state that the Indians
attacked the Scandinavian colony near that
place, killing Eve. Several settlers were killed
on Republican River.
WASHINGTON, May 3O.-Occaaional Covers
thrown on the Confederate graves at Airing
ton yesterday produced disturbances, which
were checked by the guard, who prevented
their decoration. This policy was enforced on
the authorities by rufaans, supported by
thoughtless persons, who gathered and tram.
pied upon the flowers. This act and the ne
oessity to guard the graves. is universally de-
plored; but the vast and mixed Gro wd rendered
the guard necessary, otherwise there would
have been rows and probably bloodshed.
