The Weight of a Cotton Bale.

The Commissioner of Agriculture,
in his report, estimates the cotton
crop for 1873 at 5,l97 900 bales, "aI'
lowing $50 pounds as the weight of a
bale. This allowance of $50 pounds
for a bale is calculated to produce a
misrepresentation from the fact that
the Cotton Exchange usually esh-
mates the weight Of bale at l75
pounds, including bagging and ties.
In order to remove this m'sapplc-
hension; the following dispatch was
sent:
Hon. VIM. G.. LeDuc, Commission
er of Agriculture, Washington: In
your report do you allow $50 pounds
lint cotton to the bale, or do you
mean 45O pounds per bale gross, that
is including bagging and ties? 1t is
construed both ways here.
HENRY G. HESTER,
Secretary Cotton Exchange.
The following reply was received:
Washington, Dec. 13.-Henry g.
Hester, Secretary, etc.; We mean 43O
pounds of cotton to tho bale, not TAX
ing into consideration tho bagging
and ties.
WIN. G.. LEDUC,
Commissioner.

A gentleman entered a grocery
store at North Vernon, Ind, the
other day, and asked for gallon of
molasses. Having drawn it, the
storekeeper asked him what he would
take it home in. '1n my hat,'
promptly replied the customer, calm
ly holding out a new silk hat, into
which the grocer, not to be outdone
in sang troid, poured the fluid. Then
the customer jammed the hat on the
grocer's head and, having thus oc.
cupied his attention, took what mon.

Miss Susan aud Miss Rachel Refs
chenboch, of Providence, r. l., were
the first ladies for, a long time who
found under the bed the man for

women looking for him, and itis en-
couraging that at last he has been
found.
