The Tobacco Prospect.

Never was the tobacco crop so com
plete failure as this year. Tobacco Is
now higher in our market than at the
seaboard, and still advancing. Buyers
are taking all that is offered and rolling
it away. The warehouses are crowded
and the streets in front of the ware
houses are blocked. The banks are hav-
ing all they can carry just now. One
buyer remarked to us that if he had all
his purchases of this season together
just now, they would net S25, 900 on
this market, but unfortunately for him,
the bulk of it has been disposed of.
Great profits will necessarily accrue in
the New York trade, on that which has
already been sold, and our farmers will
see from this item the Importance of
conce- tration and cooperation when
produce is low.
The New York trade is deceived by
reports of good rains in this section.
The showers have been Vry light
here, barely enough rain at al time to
lay the dust, and the present. Estimate
of the next crop is, that there will not
be l 200 hogsheads of tobacco sold on
this market next year. We had light
rain on the 10Th, but not enough to JUS
tify planting. The ground (AIs not wet
over an inch deep. There WA a good
rain in the Greensboro section on the
18th, which enabled the farmers along
the Ohio river to do some planting.
Davis county, from accounts, has but
about one-tLird crop.
News from the Paducah section and
the western country is to the effect that
about one-third of crop has been set
amid light showers, but the scorching
sun has killed the most of it.
The crop in the upper Cumberland
county is almost a total failure. The
highest estimate does not exceed LOCO
hogsheads.
Accounts from Simpson, Warren, Loo
gan, Todd, Christian, Trigg, Hopkins,
Crittenden and Caldwell counties, KY,
Robertson, Cheatham. Dickson, He us
ton, Stewart, Henry, and all the tobac-
co-growing counties of West Tennessee,
are exceedingly gloomy, and the guam
tity given from one-tenth to one-fourth
of crop, while the most of it has dried
out
Should the drouth continue a week
longer, the tobacco crop Will be a COM
plete failure, and the corn crop will be
cut very short. The oat and hay crop
is very light, and farmers should not let
al single opportunity of sowing plenty
of millet and Hungarian grass escape.
Pastures and all vegetation are rapidly
drying up, and stock are now suffering.
We by all means advise farmers to
hold tobacco now as long as possible
until the seaboard markets feel the ex-
tent of the drouth, while We advise
them to plant even late, all they can,
on the chance of a late season and the
certainty of high prices for anything IN
the shape of tobacco CgarkSUiLIe To-

The Most Profitable Stock.

It is impossible to say definitely what
breed of cattle may be made most pro-
fitable to raise for selling. There is no
one breed that holds any pre-eminent
.position and tine choicest specimens of
any breed are sought for by the fan
cfers of that particular stock aseagerly
as those of any other breed by their
fanciers. 1t is a question of capital
and skill altogether. The breeding of
Short-horns would require more capital
than would the breeding of Jerseys,
Ayrshires or Devons because they cost
more and need more costly care and at
tention, and the risk is greater. The
price is proportionately higher, but the
profit is no greater than with less costly
stock. If there is any choice of breed
so far as ease of keep and readiness of
sale at remunerative prices are con-
cerned, the Jersey, Ayrshire, or Glern-
sey stock might probably be the best.

Keeping Poultry in Orchards.

Some farmers make it a practice to
keep their poultry in their orchards
from early. spring until cold weather
sets in and they find that it pays them
for so DOING A picket fence should be
built around the orchard, high enough
to prevent their flying over, with suit
able house or shed in one corner of the
yard to shelter them at night Thus
situated, the poultry will thrive and
prosper, keeping themselves in good
condition, and the increase in eggs will
be greatly augmented, and their useful
ness and value enhanced to their owners
at least, on account of the thousand
myriads of insects and worms which
they naturally destroy, and which will
more than repay the cost and labor of
building the fence. By keeping them
enclosed in this manner, a large num-
Der of fowls may be retained in an
orchard and the continual scratching
which is done by them will prove adj
vantageous both to the soil and trees
themselves

Past GIories of the Steamboat.

A correspondent of the st. Louis
Globe reports a conversation with an
old steamboat man as follows:
You may think" said old Alec RIM
yam to me, few days ago, as we stood
on the levee contemplating the boats
you may think thar's only one differ.
ence betwixt a steamboat now and a
steamboat twenty-five years ago Won
maybe think its difference in biIers.
But thar's more difference than biIers.
The boats is diff'rent the people is
diff'rent /; the way they does things is
diff rept. and when l stand on this levee
and look at them boats, grieve, sir, I
grleve for them times when things was
known by their right names. Then one
biler was enough for a boat now a
dozen isn't sufficient. Then rousters
was rousters now they are gentlemen,
and wear stand-up collars and sleep in
the cabin. Then the engineer was only
an owner now he's a gentleman, and
the pilots and captains was the other
owners. Why, I've seen this river and
have known it, man and boy, onto thir-
ty- eight year, and as 1 see it go down it
makes me grieve, it makes me grieve
Whar's yer explosions now? That set
ties it :; yer don't have none like yer
used to have, and yer going down stream
right along. Bah This yer river never
had but one boat on it. Old Bull Whit
man and me and Jim Dunn, we owned
the steamboat. These yer fellows
wouldn't call her nothin', cause she had
only one bIler, and one owner was cap'n
and pilot; an another engineer, and
the other roustabout. But the boat
never was passed but once't, and then
saeonly passed her wreck. She was
DGowed up higher'n a full moon when
she was three lengths ahead, and every
soul on her was killed"
All the owners ON board, Aleck ?"
You bet. Well, we had meeting
after she busted, and we concluded to
run her again, and we kept her in the
trade till we split up. Yer see the way
these boats bust, they gets a pumpin'
sand and it cuts the pump valves, so
they don't draw water, and then the
biler goes. Well, one day we was run
min from Vicksburg to Natchez, and
the engineer tells the pilot his valve gin
out and he must stop and go ashore.
The pilot allows he can fix up the valves
while he is runnin, and the engineer
tells him if he tries it he'll get his head
split. So the pilot runs her aground
aud comes down for fight, and so the
engineer splits him open with monkey
wrench. We goes ashore and buries
him, and the engineer and me plays a
game of seven up for the pilots inter
est. That's what call steamboatin'. "

The Great Flood.

The monthly weather report for May,
issued by tire. signal bureau, says /:
1.-The river flood of the most importance,
during this month has been that which
devastated the valleys of the lower Mis-
sissippi, Arkansas, White, Red, and
other rivers. The crevasses on the
Mississippi river may be classified as
follows Between Memphis and the
Louisiana state line were four large
crevasses and several smaller ones,
opening into the state of Mississippi,
Arkansas and Tennessee. South of the
Louisiana state line, and almost exclu-
sively opening into that state, were
fourteen large and nine small creNasses.
The total length of breaks in levees ex-
coed twelve miles. The total extent OF
bottom lands overfowed exceed %, 900
square miles. The overfowed land IN
Louisiana was confined to region of 20
to so miles broad, Immediately ado a.
ing the western bank of the river, and
spreading out over at least one-half of
the Delta property so-called; the entire
length of the inundated region, in a
north and south direction, being nearly

The Cotton Crop.

The cotton crop of the past few yealb
has been IS follows: In 1870, 4,4e2,-
SIT bales in 1871, 1874, 351 bales; in
1872, $3.50, sos bales; in 1873, esti-
mated 4, 200, 900 bales. or total of IT,
457, 176 bales in the four years. The
acreage planted during these years was
as follows 1870, 1856, 545 acres in
1871, 7,S11, 696 acres in 1872, 1857
557 acres in 1878, 9,843, 723 acres, or
total of 80, 40S, 521 acles in the four
years. This would give yield on an
acreage of 2.29 bales to the acre. This
year the number of acres in cultivation
is 6,785, 756. The same average would
give clop this year of $3.50, 574 bales
1t will not do, however, tVrely upon
the law of averages, for of all the crops
of the country none are subject to such
violent fluctuations of chances as that
of cotton. The reports of the depart
ment of agriculture, as published I'M
der crop intelligence elsewlE IRE, shows,
however, a general reducfb n of acre
age of about ten per cent. If there is
the same reduction on the number of
bales produced in 1878, which is esti-
mated at 4, 200, 900, it would give as the
figures of the growing crop, 8, 7S0, 900
bales. These figures are, perhaps, as
good basis for calculation as can be
given at this stage of the crop.-ADaeri-

. Cleanse the Managers.

The managers of horses, COWS and OK
en-, when supplied with cut fodder and
meal, frequently become Extensively
sour, in consequence of the decompo-
sition of the wet meal that adheres to
the corners of the feed boxes. This is
apt TO be the case especially when ami
mails do not lick the corners entirely
clean. If a small portion of feed is al
lowed TO remain in the manger only a
portion of a warm day it viii become
sour, and the offensive effiuvia will faint
the entire manager, so that an animal
will often refuse to eat his accustomed
allowance, unless compelled by keen
hunger. The true way to manage man
gers is to scrape the corners clean at
least twice per day, removing every par
ticle of rejected food. Then, if the
manger does not smell as sweet asa but
ter bowl, let the corners be washed out
with hot water, wiped clean, and a
handful of caustic slack lime be spriDk-
led in the manger. If managers are
kept clean they will seldom become Of
fensively sour. If an animal leaves a
portion of his feed, new mess should
never be given on the rejected feed

Gay Times Among the Sioux.

A correspondent of the Omaha Her
aid, writing, June 10, from Camp Rob
inson, Red Clouds agency, has the
following
eve have Just surveyed "lightning
dance" a benefit to Red Clouds
daughter, who, during a thunder
shower, became so frightened that it
was necessary to make " medicine for
her, and render her " lightning proof,
the modus operandi of which is to
slaughter a cog, sever the head from
the body, place them in a kettle of boil
ing water under which a steady fire is
kept. First, the bucks, almost naked,
with their bodies painted in zigzag form
to represent lightning, dance around
the boiling kettle, whOopibg and sing
ing. Each in turn, with barred hands,
gather pieces of the dog, and continue
to dance, holding fast to the singed
fragments. At signal, the bucks retire
and their places are filed by squaws,
dressed very much like the bucks
principally in war paint. AS they
danced around the boiling cauldron,
each in turn gather pieces from the
boiling kettle, and continue their evolu-
tions, like the witches in Macbeth.
After this is ended, the subject for
Nu1Gu Tile InCtAlSAAC ID A4AdOts - VII
sidered lightning proof and happy.
Lodges are being arranged in circular
form, the ring marked out, and Red
Clouds circus is the coming feature.
A Sun dance means nothing more nor
less than making braves of the
young men; straining their courage and
endurance to the most brutal and bar
barous pitch. Great gashes are cut in
the flesh of the victim, buffalo thongs
are drawn through the incisions,
to which is attached heavy weights, and
the victim writhes and groans as he
dances around until the flesh tears out
and release him. Another test of
courage resorted to, is to seat the young
buck on the ground against an upright
pole. In this position he is held by
the squaws while the warriors shoot ar
rows and throw lances into his body.
If the subject receives an unusual
amount of torture without erincing any
lack of courage, he is considered
brave" and can be "bought off" by
his relations "thowing away a horse
to the old warriors,
The dance is usually preceded by a
feast in which the big and little CANNES
play an important part. A white man
to witness the dance must eat dog to
the extent of eight or ten pounds at a
sitting, but of the Sun dance and feast
