Future Prospects of American Man
ufacturers - The Limitless
Resources of the Uni
ted States.

New YORK, November 4.-Steam-
ships arriving from Europe report
severe weather on the banks of New
foSndland, which detained them from
twenty-four to forty eight hours be-
yond schedule time. The steamship
Albania from Cardiff, October 10Th,
was thrown so far over her side that it
was difficult to keep her headed up to
the gale, and the seas swept over her
decks fore and aft, carrying overheard
everything movable, and doing slight
damage to the upper works.
The boxes which Postmaster James
placed in the postofiice and at various
stations in August last, to receive con-
tributions for the Memphis sufferers
by yellow fever, have been removed.
Total amount received, S1,031.
Postmaster James reports an unpar
alleled sale of stamps in his Office dur
ing October. The sale of postage
stamps amounted to s282,762, and
newspaper stamps to S30,2O9
Albert D. Shaw, United States
consul at Manchester, in answer to the
question What is your opinion of the
future prospects Of the manufactures
IN England" says Knowing as |
do the almost limitless resources of the
United States in raw material, |
naturally incline to the opinion that
American enterprise, backed by ade-
quate cheap capital, will be equal to
the future and that our raw material
SO wonderfully distributed over our
vast continent, will be manufactured
cheapest near the place of production.
The genius of American inventors
and growing skill of American opera
tors, coupled with cheap lands and
cheap food, certainly places us in a
favorable position for winning the race
in the international contest for the
controlling position in manufacture. :"
In answer to another question, Shaw
said; Beer is the great curse of the
poor classes in England. 1t deadens
the moral and physical forces, and at
the same time robs them of much of
their hard earnings. This drink
question is a serious one at present in
England. Once an operative, as a
rule, always an operative" In the
matter Of placing American farm pro-
duce, the consul said: IF shipments
were made to responsible houses inter
ested in produce, where sales would
be made under their guarantee as to
quality and condition, great
improvement would follow. l
have known fifty packages of
American butter to be sold at auction
at Liverpool at sixteen cents per
pound, forty packages ofwhich, week
later, were resold by the purchasers
for twenty-eight cents per pound, and
the price of butter had not advanced
in the general market in the meantime.
This dealer sent the butterto his ware
house, carefully assorted it, branded
it with bis firms name, and made a
handsome Eoft, because he became

The Rice Crop Of the Present
Year.

Year.
The latest quotations for rice in
the New Orleans market is 53@6c per
pound for common and 6l@7lc for
good to choice, In relation to the
rice crop now being harvested Messrs
Talmadge g. Sons, in their circular of
the lst inst, says:
The remunerative prices obtained
for the present crop, induced a much
extended cultivation and about $4,000
acres we're planted from which yield
of $50, 900 to 100000 barrels was rea-
sOnably expected. In May the water
in the Mississippi river fell so low
that it was impossible to food the
fields and the customary June rise"
failing, together with long period of
drouth, all combined to seriously in
jure the growth of rice. Artificial
means of raising the water were re-
sorted to, and pumps were kept run
hing night and day, with Indifferent
success, by those who could command
them. September Ist, heavy gale
supplemented the disasters of the
year, and instead OF the large yield
expected, the most reliable estimates
show only about $4,000 barrels as total
crop for the season. The quality was
somewhat injured by the want Of wa
ter, yet the parcels offering are of fair
character Preparations are being
made for large planting next season.
Regarding the crop Of last year the
same authority says
The total yield was 164,00O bbls., of
which 10000 bbls were marketed, the
remainder being used for seed and
home consumption. PLANTERS having
been more careful in seeding and cul.
tivation, and account of fair harvest
weather, the average grade was fully
up to previous seasons. Louisiana
being the base of supply for the
United States, during the first three
months Of the crop year, all the sur
plus was disposed Of as early as No
vember. Speculation in rough
(unmilled rice) then forced prices
unduly high and market ruled quiet
and steady until spling demand set in
and prices advanced &c per pound.
Altogether the season was profitable
one to the rice interests of this State.

OUR MINING
The MetcaIi Company to be ORGANIZED on a
Sound.Basis.

In view of the very favorable reports
from the mining district in the vicinity
Of Granite caEon, steps are being taken
for the reorganization of the Metcalf
mining company formed, several years
ago. As soon as properly organized 1t
is the intention of the company to fur
ther develop the mines located on the
middle fork of Grow creek, about nine
miles north of Granite Canon, Mr.. G.
A. McGill, a veteran miner, has taken
ores from the Granite Canon mining
district to Denver, which, upon being
assayed, developed a richness equal to
that found in any of the Black Hills
ores. Mr.. McGill has made an accept
able proposition to members of the
company for working one of the mines,
and it is expected hat he will COM
mence active operations at an early
day. 1t is proposed to sink a shaft 20O
feet deep, a procedure which will thor
oDghly test the question as TO whether
or not the mines will pay to work. Mr..
McGill has found ore in that vicinity
assaying $40 worth Of copper per ton,
and s27 in silver.
After the Metcalf Is reorganized and
Mr.. McGill gets fairly to work, we may
expect to obtain Information upon
which reliance can be placed.
