The Grain Dlstillers in Council.

The grain distillers doing business on
the Ohio river had a meeting on Friday,
after the adjournment Of the Distillers
National Convention, at which there was
some discussion about the possibility of
an arrangement for the limitation of pro-
duction. The high price of corn has
rendered it impossible to compete with
foreign nations on alcohol for export,
and the foreign trade has been lost. Sew
eral of those present admitted the fact,
but could suggest no remedy, and no
definite action was taken further than to
constitute a committee of one to look up
the matter. The representatives from
Kentucky, Pennsylvania, West Virginia,
Maryland and Tennessee also had a sepa-
rate meeting, with closed doors. 1t is
understood that the following resolution
was agreed to:
Res0gUed, That it is the opinion of this
meeting that the contemplated crop Of
whisky to be made in the fall of 1881
and spring Of 1882 will not be in excess
of the wants of the trade; the high
prices of grain and fuel and the long con-
tinued drouth, combined with other
causes, will necessarily restrict the pro-
duction to not more than go per cent. of
that of 1881. The increased demand for
fine WHISTLES, coupled with the general
belief that the extension of the bonded
period and the contemplated reduction
of the tax to fifty cents will be granted,
will, in a great measure, it is believed,
relieve the trade, so that a year hence
the consumption viii fully approximate
the production.

Progress Of the Production of Cereals

Progress OF the PRODUCTION OF Cereals.
An extra bulletin containing tables
showing the cereal production of the
United States by counties. as returned at
the census of 1880, is a document of
great interest and value to agricultu-
rists, SIS well as merchants engaged in dis
posing of their products. 1t must be
borne in mind, however, in considering
the figures here given, that they embody
data collected in the summer Of 1880,
and therefore have reference to the crop
of 1879. The rapid strides made by the
country in developing its agricultural
resources can be gathered from the fol-
lowing record of the production of the
last three decades, expressed in bushels

OTHER MATTERS.

The crops in Appling county were represent
ed as fair, though short of those Of last year.
Money was reported scarce, but a few had
enough to renew their subscriptions to the
WEEKLY NEWS.
In Houston county the rains have been par
tisl, and the crops are as varied. In some sec
tons the corn and cotton were both good, in
others exceedingly short. The average estimate
is about half a crop for the county. The cot
ton is very nearly all picked, and is in good
condition. II is coming in rapidly.
Perry is improving slowly. Among the better
class OF improvements is an elegant brick
warehouse, erected by Messrs Day & Gordon.
IL wss crammed full of cotton The Home
Journal is Furnishing. The Public Library,
under the care of Mrs. Nora Cox, is one of the
most attractive places in the town.
The people of Houston county have lust had
an election to settle the status Of whisky. By
an oversight, for which the anti-Whisky
party were in no way responsible, the vote
resulted in closing up the barrooms. The law
calling for an election was specific in its pro-
visions, and 50 was the proclamation Of the
Ordinary. There should have been upon every
ticket the words either For the sale of intoxi-
eating liquors." or Against the sale Of intoxi-
eating liquors Those opposed to the abol-
ishment of the traffic had various devices.
Some, For whisky" Cheap whisky, y
more and better whisky" When the officers
came to consolidate the vote all Of these were
thrown out, leaving a majority against the
sale of liquor. An Injunction was sued out,
and the case will be tried in chambers before
Judge simmons on the 21st inst.
The anti-temperance men are not very hope
full OF their suit, but they have no one to blame
but themselves, and cannot throw the blame
upon anybody else They were advised of
their error In time to have changed the result,
therefore they must abide the fruits Of their
own folly. JACK PLANE.
