The Picayune says the president Of the board
OF health, accompanied by delegation OF
merchants, went this morning to the Cover
nor's office and stated that he had personally
seen every case Of fever In the city, and was
satisfied there would be no further mortality
or any spread OF the disease. He considered
the alarm about fever here. at Galveston or
elsewhere as premature and without any Just
cause.
Anumber of merchants called on the Gov
ernor regarding the Galveston quarantine.
Warmoth telegraphed to Governor Davis that
sthere are but FIVE cases Of yellow fever In the
city, and but three deaths In ten days. None
of the cases are considered dangerous, and
there is no fear of the spread Of the disease.

Louisiana rice is also becoming staple ar
ticle In the market, especially In the western
States. Previous to 1860 this article was al
most unknown to commerce, but since then
the production has greatly increased untl Inc Inc
season OF l869-70, when 1t reached l0O,478
barrels of 200 pounds each. The crop OF the
present season is estimated at 49,97l barrels,
showing heavy decrease, owing 10 tne low
water during the spring and early summer
months. 1t Is thought the present crop Will
reach about $4,000 barrels. This crop can oe
marketed much earlier than the Carolina, and
Ia time it will become one OF the most lmpor'
tant crops Of the South.
Until recently the prospects OF the growing
crops of both Carolina and Louisiana were
very favorable; but the late heavy rains along
the entire South Atlantic coast are thought 10
have done considerable damage. The reports
regarding this, however, are very coniradic-
tory. and it Is more than probable that the
stories OF severe loss are sent abroad with tue
design to influence the market. That some
damage has been done is undoubtedly the case,
but from reliable adVices received from The va
rious districts it would seem that the losses as
vet. except In individual cases, are compara-
lively light In Louisiana the crop Is being gatn-
cred under rather favorable circumstances.
Although considerable injury was done oy
the back water from Bonre Carre creVasse, the
estimates are that The crop Will be IN excess OF
that of last year. From all the growing olstricts
the United States this year will show an ad
vance over the previous year, 10th In quality
and quantity. The first OF the new crop was
received in this market on the 25th OF august.
The bulk of the crop w,l! be later than usual,
as the stormy weather has interered some
what with the harvesting. The quarantine re-
gulatiuns here on Charleston vessels also re-
lard the shipment OF rice from that port to this
market, and in consequence the market is ex-
ceediugiy strong and has an upward tendency.
The demand at pre- iant is In excess of the sup
ply, notwithstanding the imports or foreign
tic rice during the week ending September 10,
were 1874 packages, making 1l,s2S packages
since the first OF the year. There were import
ed during the same week 4l3S packages, max
ing 2O,s55 packages since the first Of the year.
For the same period last year the domestic re-
ceipts were 13,44l packages, and the imports
43l, 1865 packages. Since the drst OF the year
there have been exported l6,s47 packages;
against 43,7;s packages for the same period
last year.

THE RICE TRADE.
From the New York Bulletin.i

The rice produced In South Carolina is the
best quality of rice known in the market, and
II will always command higher price than
the best qualities Of the imported. During
the mast wear the Carolina rice has been very
scarce, and the difference between the price
of it and the imported has been more marked
than usual. During the spring months the
Carolina rice was very scarce, even In Charles
ton, owing to the planters keeping back their
supplies for higher prices. Taking advantage
OF these circumstances, 1000 bags OF Patna,
the best imported rice. was shipped to Charles
ton from this city. and the shippers were able
to sell it at profit at one cent under the ruling
rates of the Carolina rice. This Induced the
supplies to come more freely; but still through
out the entire season the Northern marEets
have been but poorly supplied with Carolina
rice, and the Patua has been largely used as a
substitute. The Carolina crops have steadily
Increased since the war, but they still lack
more than 100000 tierces 10 be equal to the
crop of lS59-60, as will be seen from the fol-
louipu table.

THAT TIDAL TITE.
Professor Maury Disposes Of the Hum
bug.

The follos ing letter from Professor Matthew
F. Maury to gentleman In New Orleans, will
convince those not previously convinced that
the "tidal wave" sensation is sheer humbug.
The letter of the distinguished professor Is
dated at the Virginia Military Institute, at Lex
&ston, September Is, 1871, and Is a follows:
T have too much respect for Mr.. Agassz to
suppose that he has attempted 10 "predict an
earthquake" or to forecast any such tidal wave
for October S, 6, as you describe-a wave 80
immense that 1t Is to submerge the Southern
Atlantic coast, the peninsula Of Florida and the
Gulf coast.
In 1870 q crack-brain In England alarmed
many people there with the prediction that
during the equinoctial tides Of that year an
imn!Hnse wave was to come into the Mersey
and damage Liverpool.
Scientific men were called upon to allay the
popular fears caused by this foolish announce
ment. This they did by showing that the equi-
noctial tides OF that year would not be attend
ed by any unusual circumstances whatever.
AS for an immense tidal wave In the Gulf OF
Nexico-that sea is, in this respect, like the
Mediterranean-a close seattle entrances to
which are not, as moments reflection Will
convince, large enough to admit during the
six hours of flood, water enough to ill such
sea to oyerfowing. That is why you have
little or no tides in these two seas. 80 New
Orleans Is SAFE. At any rate she has far more
reason TO fear the floods OF the mississippi
from above. with their crevasses, than the
tides of the Gulf with their waves.
You know the longest tidal waves are gene
rated under the new or full moon OF the equi-
no1es. These make the "bores' OF the ANA
zon, the Hoogly, the Peiho and other rivers
that, fronting the tides, have open mouths In
deep water for good entrance.

THE pEzrH OF GENERAL c1ANToN.

MONTGOMERY, September 26.
The death of James H. Clanton, chairman
of the Democratic State executive committee,
creates the proioundest grief among all cias-
ses. Every business house without exception,
and many private houses. are draped In mourn:
ing-festoons Of Grape are stretched along all
the streets for more than mile. The colored
people vie with the whites In tesufying their
afection for Clanton. All the business houses
were heavily draped. An immense meeting
of all parties at the theatre passed resolutions
and appointed committee to receive and es-
cort the remains. The Mayor and City Council
did likewise. Every heart is bowed down
among the people Of Alabama, who loved
him, regardless OF party.
