Rice cultivation in Louisiana is ore of
the most promising of Southern indus
tries. There Is no South ern State in
which this valuable cereal can be culti-
waited with more success and profit The
numerous streams, bayous, and rivers
that cut through the State in all dlrec-
tlons, and which form complete net
work of waterways, irrigate and fructiiy
the greater part of the rich lands. In
st. Cha aries Parish the cultivation of the
grain has been found so profitable that
thousands of acres formerly devoted to
other crops have been, for the ,ast ten
years, Bown with rice. Within the las,
year or two its cultivation has been at.
tempted In the Lake Charles district
1t has been found SO profitable that thu
area of the Lew crop was increased sew
| eral thousand acres this season. But III,
fact has been ascertained that the up
land or dry rice will grow equally as well
in Louisiana soil, and will produce a.
prohfically as the wet rice Many far
mers are now planting it In preference
to any other. for many reasons, but prin.
cipally on account of the less trouble and
difficulty attending Its production.

IT n NOW generally believed In
Philadelphia that VIM. n. Vanderbilt
is buying up the stock of the Philadel-
Phia and Reading Railroad with q
view to controlling the great coal re-
gion Of Pennsylvania, and running the
Reading load in connection with the
New Jersey Central, which he mainly
controls. Under the influence of the
demand for Rssding within the past
few days the stock of that road has
been advanced about two dollars q
share.
Mr.. Vanderbilt does not appear to
be on the best terms with Mr.. Garrett
of the Baltimore and Ohio. Should,
therefore, the new road which is now
being surveyed to run from Baltimore
TO Philadelphia through this city, be
built 1t may not connect with the
Reading at or near Thurlow's as has
been supposed it would. However it
does not require long for such gentle-
men as Vanderbilt and Garrett to come
to an understanding where millions are
at stake.

"FIyE YOUNG MEN SHOT BY A
FARMER. "A Philadelphia contem-
porary says on Sunday afternoon a
"number Of young men connected with
the Literary Institute attached to the
Church of st. Phillip, visited a lot of
ground on Broad street, for the pur-
pose OF indulging in game of baee
ball." The ground belonged to a
farmer named Brooks. After the
game had been started the farmers
son approached with gun and ordered
them out of the field. They did not
70 as quickly as he desir ed ard be
fired his gun three times at them
woanding one seriously and fouI
others. This is bad business for al
concerned. The farmers son find.
himself in Jail and five of the party
suffering wounds one lying in q
precarious condition. Young men
connected with churches should take
warning from this affair and avoid
playing games OF base ball on Sunday.
1t does not seem appropriate Sunday
work for those connected with
churches.

some idea of what may be expected in
that thriving city of the new South
during exposition time. There will
be sho" worth trip from Cape Cod

less be some crowding-we hope there
may be-and some elegant tourists

A New Source Of India. Rubber,

The Scientific american announces
the discovery by DIR. L. r. Heath,
along the previously unexplored bor-
ders of the Beni river, in Bolivia, of
abundant rubber and chincona forests.
As new rubber forests are to that part
Of the world what new gold fields are
ta the people Of this county, it may
readily be understood that the rubber
fever" became prevalent after the
Doctors announcement OF his dis
covery, and thousands set out to pene-
trate the country of the cannibals
where the forests are found. The ex-
port of rubber, which was last year
$1,000 pounds, is expected this year
to reach the amount OF 750, 600 pounds,
and next year @ 100000.

TUESDAY. OCTOBER =. 1881.


The enormous taxes now paid by The
people are shown by the immense
surplus revenue above the estimates
which is applied to paying the public
debt. In the three months ending On
the s0th Of September the reduction
Of the public debt was $37, 600, 600.
There 10 large amount of the public
debt that will never be paid. 1t con-
sists in fractional currency, green
backs and bonds that have beeA used
until destroyed, lost in the ocean,
burned up or mislaid. Still the ao-
couRtants are required to carry for
ward the figures that include the mil
liens referred to that never can be
paid. OF the fractional currency
SIC, 600, 600 is still carried forward on
the books of the treasury. So great
10 the income from internal revenue
and customs that it is asserted by
some who have opportunities to en-
able them to speak within the bounds
Of probability, that if the remainder
Of the year should equal the proper
tionof the first quarter the reduction
of the public debt will be nearly
$50, 900, 900 on the 8Oth of June next.
There is something very remarkable
about this state of the public business.
And it shows how fallacious the best
judgement of public men may be.
There has been studied effort made
to give to Hon. John Sherman great
credit for exceeding wisdom in the
management of the Treasury Depart
ment. We do net wish to detract in
any way from Mr.. sherman. But it
is well known that he did nothing
to bring about specie payments-that
the appreciation of the greenback
toward the par of gold, after the gov
eminent commenced the coinage of
silver, was faster than Sherman would
credit and he actually run the gover-
ment in debt $500, 900, 600 to buy gold
at premium, when the gold was not
Leeded and never has been needed, on
the contrary it lies idle in the treasury
10 day where it has laid ever since,
while the government is paying inter-
est on the bonds with which it was
bought This debt was created at the
very time Democratic speakers were
denouncing the issue of more bonds
to increase the public debt. Had the
Efforts to secure Sherman's retention
in The Treasury under Garfield
resnlted in keeping him there, we do
not believe the public debt would have
been yet refunded. 1t was known
that he did not believe 1t could b,
effected under the law that Haye,
very foolishly vetoed. Sherman wa
always under the control of the bro.
kers; and he actually retarded speci
payments, and used his efforts to keel
the greenback below par, or what wa
the same thing, to make gold dear b
buying 1t up and keeping it out of th
market. 1t was fortunate thing fo
the people that Window was prefer
red by Garfield. He may not be 81
skillful debater but he has showI
himself to be possessed of good, soil,
common sense at least, and to hav
the courage to do what seemed pro
per and right. A more timid ma
would not have ventured upon re
funding the debt, which was SO hap
PLY completed al such small cost, am
with saving of about $50, 900, 900 an
aually, to the people.

A Smart Weasel.

The remarkable sagacity of the weasel
was well illustrated the other day by an
incident which actually occurred in the
suburbs of Santa Barbara. A gentle
mans barn was infested with rats, and
he was greatly annoyed by their depre-
dations. They have been gradually dis
appearing, however, during the past
few weeks. The gentleman finally dis
covered the cause of their probable dis
appearance in very wide-avake weasel,
which was engaged at the time in Wig
orous combat with an unusually large
sized rat. The latter proved too much
for his adversary, and finally chased
his weasolship out of the barn. A
few mornings later the gentleman again
sound the same animals engaged in a
similar battle. The weasel at last ran
away as before, and the rat followed in
hot pursuit. This time, however, the
weasel ran into hole it had burrowed
through pile of hardened compost.
This hole was quite large at the en-
trance, but the outlet was scarcely large
enough to admit the passage of the
vessels body. The weasel darted into
the hole with the rat at his heels. A
moment later the weasel emerged
from the other side, ran quickly
around the compost pile and
again entered the hole, this time
in the enemy's rear. The gentleman,
interested in the proceedings, watched
the place some time, and found that
only the weasel came out. Digging into
the compost he found the rat quite
dead, and partly eaten. The weasel
had arranged his trap so that the rat
could enter, but becoming closely
wadged in the narrow portion of the hole,
could be attacked at disadvantage and
easily killed.

An Epidemic of Suicide,

A wave of suicide seems to be sweep
ing over the whole country. In all
parts of the republic men and women
are blowing out the little brains they
possess and cutting their worthless
Threats in the most reckless manner.
The compromising circumstance about
it is that it rids the world of number
of people who, if they did not kill them
selves, would probably kill somebody
else, and that they make business lively
for the undertakers and the coroners.
1t is almost impossible to account for
this destructive tendency that occurs
every once and awhile. The specula
tive writer's and philosophers endeavor
to account for it in various ways, and
they talk learnedly and eloquently
about crime cycles and more or less
other sentimental rubbish, all of which
is very good as theory. The fact of
the matter is there are a great many
more crazy people in the world, or, as
they call them in Washington, ''cranks, I"
than the world imagines. When a
great popular excitement that stirs the
whole country comes these weak-mind-
ed creatures Jump off the first wharf, tie
themselves to the first rope they see. or
point to their heads the first old rusty
pistol they run across. The majority
of them are of far more use below
ground than above it.-New York Her.
