Quotations are reduced 10 on all grades,
but buyers are 10th to take hold at even

THE COTTON CROP.

A GLOOMY PROSPECT FOR THE GROWING
CRor-Too MUCH RAIN.
The Vlcksburg HcJuH: AT the pre-
sent writing the prospect for large cot
ton crop is gloomy indeed. The rains
have been general all oyer the South for
the last four days. The damage to cotton
cannot be estimated even ii the rains
cease now. In the valleys the stalk of
the cotton is already too large, the foliage
is too dense, aud hot, dry weather con-
tnuoNiy, tor the rest of The season is the
only thing that will produce even an av-
erage crop. Already we hear of rot,
rust, and sappy bolls, TO say nothing of
the ravages OF the worms, that
is increased ten told by
wet weather. There have been years in
the South that the cotton crop in the val>
leys has been almost wholly ruined by
continued rains, even after The stalk had
fully matured. Sometimes we have sea-
sons here that resemble the rainy seasons
OF the Tropics, and the present Septem-
Der, so tar, bears every resemblance to
| one of these.
What cotton is "open" is very much
injured in quality, as much OF 1t has been
dashed on the ground by the rain and
wind. Time has been lost, TOO, that it is
impossible to replace. We have had sey,
cral successive seasons OF extremely gooC
weather tor picking, but this one begins
as if it is destined to balance many OF the
good ones.
In the hill lands, or the uplandS, a.
they are known by Gotten men. we heal
of second growth and great waste from
| the wind and rain. In truth in the up
lands, the waste has been much greater
than in the valleys, for there is largely
more OF the staple open. Second growth
j; extremely injurious to the stalk. II
starts new life in it, and new foliage, but
the fruit never natures in time to escape
the frost. Altogether the outlook is ex'
tremely untavorable, and We think tina
the big crop estimates should be lowered
by al least twenty per cent"

FIRE AT WASHINGTON

DISASTROUS FIRE IN THE PATENT OFFICE
ESTIMATED DAMAGE 100000 TO
100000.
4 fire occurred in the patent Office, at
Washington, at about /! o'clock, on
Monday, September oath. and ragged
furiously for between two and three
hours. The flames were first discovered
in the conservatory near the roof. 1t is
believed that the fire was the result Of
spontaneous combustion among lot of
non-patented chemical material stored in
the attic on the Ninth-street front. No
fire was made in the conservatory during
the day nor had any been made in the
building. The principal loss falls upon
the patent office.
The original copy OF the Declaration
Of Independence and the relics of General
Washington were saved, as was also the
Franklin printing press.
Nearly all the specifications OF the
original drawings OF the natcnt office ara
sale and from these models can be repro
duced il necessary. Many clerks of the
Interior Department, the Land, Patent,
Indian and Pension offices have been or
dered on duty III asserting papers
and books, and drying all which have
been damaged by water. The military
are on guard duty at the building, where
they will remain until all the records and
public property shall be secured.
None of the land Office records have
been destroyed by fire, but many serious.
~ damaged by water. The records OF
the application division of the Office
which first receives the applications from
patentees, and of which papers no copies
were made, were saved. The most
valuable models saved were those relating
to sewing machines, firearms, printing
presses, locks, safes, etc. Models of
reapers, mowers and various agricultural
implements were destroyed. a temporary
building will be erected at once.
THE DAMAGE TO THE BUILDING.
is variously estimated at 100000 to
100000, while that growing out OF the
destruction of models and other valua-
bles belonging to the patent Office is al,
most incalculable. The arches which
formed the ceiling of the second sto-
ry, and upon which the floor OF the third
story rested, are so badly damaged by
heat and water that many of them must
be torn down. The marble and outer
walls are considerably discoored by the
flames and cracked in many places. 1t
is supposed the fire had been
smouldering beneath the root,
which was not fire proof, for
some hours before IL was discovered

Mr.. McCord, Of the Republican state
committee, is now in Washington for the
purpose ofsecuring reduced rates OF fare
TO Ohio clerks who have agreed to &c

can be obtained. Some idea Of the un.
certainty with which the Ohio Repub,
licans regard their chances to carry the
State at the election this fall may be had
when II is known that they have gone to
the expense Of sending man to Wash
ington to secure reduced rates tor these
clerks-only 10 In number, rather than
have them stay away IRON the polls
McCord has been telling the Washington
omcials Of the great necessities OF
the Republican committee through a
