PARIS, December l3.--In the Chamber of
Deputies to-day Gnndn (Bonapartist ques-
toned Rouvier, Minister of Commerce, in
regard to the importation of American
pork, Gandin said it ought not to be lett
to the importers themselves to take the nee.
essary steps to prevent the importation Of
infected meats, The Under Secretary of
Commerce replied that the quantity of im-
ported meat was SO considerable that
proper inspection was impossible, and that
the decree was withdrawn in consequence.
The government, he said, was negotiating
with the United States government on the
subject, fandin asked how inspection
would be possible in America which was
impossible in France The matter was too
serious, he said, to be settled simply by
decree. He, therefore, submitted a bill
embodying the former prohibitory decree,
which the government has withdrawn,

The Courier-Journal says the Depart
ment of Agriculture has not promulgated
an estimate of the cotton crop and doubts
the authenticity of what has been circulated
through the papers as the result Of the esti-
mate of the Department statistician, ms il
does not appear that it is given ont ON relia-
bic authority. Every one who has endeav-
ored to thoroughly acqualnt himself with
the true condition of the crop will agree
with the Courier-Jounsl in this, for there
can be no doubt that the crop will prove
largely above any estimate yet published
on what is asserted as reports from reliable
correspondents. From the following it will
DO seen that the decrease has already
been modified from 40 per cent.
to 20 -, and only about 5000
bales less than in 1870, When true lnowl-
edge Of the yield is acquired it may be found
to exceed that of 1879. The Cotrer.Jour-
nal says The cotton crop of 1851 is esti-
mated by the Department of Agriculture
to be 2,3i6, $4,000 pounds. The crop of 1850
was 1901 $40 $50 pounds and the decrease
is 20 2.3 per cent, The crop Of 1870 rs re-
ported by the census, was 2367 $50 600
pounds, from 1906 900 acres, while the
slightly smaller crop OF 1881 is from IL, 5SO,-
900 acres, the average yield per acre falling
IN these years from lSS to15l pounds. The
decrease IN this crop is larger in proportion
than that ofwheat GO per cent? and a little
larger than that in corn (25.7 per Gently
In connection with the above, we feel
safe in saying that the yield of cotton in
North Texas this season will not be TO ex-
| coed twenty per cent. below that of last
year, and many well-informed gentlemen
think that this estimate of the decrease is
| much too great And we further assert
that the crop is not about marketed us
many believe, but that there are large
quantities yet in the hands of the planters
waiting higher prices. This il the informa.
ton derived from not few, but many of
our most reliable planters living in all di.
rections from this city.
Smith, Edwards & Cos Liverpool Circu.
Jar for November says: 1--WE well remem-
Der the gigantic mistakes made at this time
last year, and indeed for two or three pre-
vious years. At this time last year $3.50,
600 was the favorite Southern estimate, and
the actual result was COCO, 900, but Il does
not follow that the mistake will always be
in one direction. We could not venture
with the light now before us to predict with
any confidence full-sized crop. We fear
considerable deficiency is more than
likely. The bureau reports have been ex.
trcnely bad for some months the last re.
turn works ont 5,260,00 TO 5,500oO0. Il is
perfectly true that In three years out of four

allowances for this. II Is difficult 10 believe

now before us.

New YORK, May 3O.-A Washing
ton dispatch to the Times says:
There is an interesting piece of his
tors in relation to the contest be-
tween Conkling and the Administra-
ton, which should be made known.
On the day following that on which
the President sent Robertson's name
to the Senate, it was known beyond
doubt that Conkling and the Repre-
sentatives of New York were greatly
dissatisfied. On that day, two mem
bers Of the Cabinet called upon the
President and suggested that a con-
ference should be held between the
President on one hand and the Vice
President and the two New York
Senators on the other. The Presi-
dent accepted the suggestions, and
set apart that evening for the inter-
view. The two members of the Cab
met made arrangements, as they
thought with the President and the
two Senators for a conference, and it
was understood it should take place
at 7.30 at the White House. After
ward Conking demurred and refused
to go, although his companions were
willing to attend. On this account
the interview did not take place. The
President waited an hour and q hall
for the expected visitors. It is known
that had that conference been held
an attempt would have been made to
readiust the matter satisfactorily to
all persons concerned.

PROSPECTS OF THE EDUCATIONAL RECORD.
[ have been repeatedly advised by
many leading educators and promi~
nent citizens that an educational

ed in Tennessee. Such a journal
may do very much in diffusing i'm
portant information, awakening in
terest and educating public senti>
ment. Considering these benefits,
and in Difference to the very decided
opinions Of many Of the wisest and
best men of this and other States, [
have arranged with q competent

month in Nashville and at Tusculum,
| Tenn. -..
The Educational Record will be
devoted to the interests of educa-
ton in general, and as the organ of
the State superintendent, to those of
the public schools in particular It
will contain the official circulars OF
the superintendent, opinions on the
school laws and reports of the
school work in the several counties
ii 1000 subscribers can be secured
in due time paper of sixteen pages,
each 11xl6 inches, will be started
July l, 1881 and when the sub
scription reaches 1000 it will be en-
larged by the addition of eight
pages. Subscription price 81 per
annum, payable on the receipt Of
the first number either at Nashville
OF Tusculum. Letters of every
kind intended for the paper from
East Tennessee may be addressed to
L, G. Haynes, Tusculum, Greene
county, Tenn, and all from Middle
and West Tennessee may be ad
dressed to Miss Julia A. Doak, in
care of the State superintendent,
| Nashville, Tenn.
