quite sensation was created this after
noon by the report that Norris Michael. a
pawnbroker, of North street, had declared
That the pistol that John Nj. McGufin had
testified to having taken away from Colonel
SlaYoack, in the shooting affray at the POST
Dispatch Office last Friday evening, really
belonged to Slaybsck, and that he (MichaeD
had sold 1t to him.
DR.. Frank, the Coroner, late this evening
recalled the jury that sat on the inquest
and summoned Michael before it, who
sWore that he identified the weapon as one
he had sold to Colonel Slayback about four
months ago, and that It still retained his
private trade mark. This establishes the
ownership OF the pistol, about which there
has been so much doubt, and overthrows
that part of Mr.. Cloptou's testimony, which
stated that Colonel Slsyback was not armed.

OUR FOOD CROPS.
ProdigiOus Yields Assured.

WASHINGTON, October 16.-The Depart
ment of Agriculture reports that the average
yield of oats will be somewhat higher than
last year or 1879, and the product
will be nearly as large as that of
wheat, probably about 100000 bushels.
The average yield of rye is 1910 bushels,
making a crop Of 2O,OOO,OOO bushels.
The indicated average yield of barley is
about % bushels per acre, aggregating 49,
100000 bushels. In 1879 it was A 900, 900.
The prospect for buckwheat is good for
nearly an average product-11, ,OOO, 900 to
100000 bushels. The general average of
potatoes is 81. IN the South, in Ohio Val.
ley and in Michigan, Missouri and Nebras-
ka, the average is 100 to 106. In the North
west and Eastern and the Middle States the
condition is lower. The returns indicate
probable yield of 80 bushels per acre on an
area of nearly 100000 acres.
The yield per acre Of corn will be reported
in November. The condition averages 81,
being very high in the South and compare
lively low in the States of the largest pro-
duction. In Illinois, with per cent. de-
crease of ares, the condition is only 70, in
Iowa 20, and In Ohio 81. These three States
produced 40 per cent. of the crop of 1879.
A careful comparison Of the changes in area
and the condition indicates an average yield
of 25 bushels per acre, against 28 in 1879
and Is last year. New England will pro-
duce, according to the October returns,
100000 to 5000, 900, the Middle States
$4,000, 900, and the Southern 340, ,O00.O 900.
Those north of Tennessee, and west of Vir-
ginia and Pennsylvania, 1,250,000, an aggre-
gate OF $50. 900. Later returns may slightly
reduce, but cannot materially increase this
estimate

COTTON ADULTERATION.
Every Effort to be Made to Prevent Such
Frauds Hereafter.

The New York Times says on the subject
OF cotton adulterstion that IT seems to be the
received opinion Of the cotton manufactu-
rers OF the Northern States that the so-called
cotton frauds will not be repeated to any
great extent during Uhe coming year. There
hes been no time since the war, and none
that can be remembered before that period,
when the practice of adulterating cotton
sold in the bale has been so generally adopt
ed as during the cotton year which closed on
the lst OF last September. The menufac-
turers who use this material found their
waste account advancing from 10 or 12 per
cent. to 20 or 30 per cent. One mill owner
In New England was surprised to find that
test bale of cotton weighed, after passing
through the picker, go per cent. less than it
did before the bale was unstrspped. OF late
years our Northern manufacturers have
bought very largely of responsible dealers
In the principal Southern cities, these latter,
for payment averaging about one dollar
per bale, guaranteeing the quality of the
goods sold. The Southern cotton merchants
have, in consequence of the frauds In the
cotton sold by them, lost very heavily, espe.
cially so as from the customary terms of
their purchases they have not been able to
make reclamation claims against those from
whom they in turn bought the cotton. In a
number OF cases these Southern dealers
have been compelled to announce their
fioancial inability to make good the loss
their customers have suffered, though It
speaks not little to the credit of the
Southern houses that those unable to paw
have stated that they consider the obliga-
tion debt to be liquidated at the earliest
possible moment. The frauds practiced
must in most cases have been due to the
ginners of the cotton. The common
method at the South is 10 allow the
man who gins the cotton fraction Of the
cotton worked and packed by him. OF late
there has been great competition in this
business, and in order to induce planters to
patron'Ze them, the owners of cotton gins
have redue their scale of charges. But
the losses they have made in one direction
they have attempted to make good in an
other. They have apparently returned to
the planter his full weight of cotton, with
only small deduction for their services,
but the weight, in the planters bale, has
been found to be produced by literally wet
tiog the cotton, or by inserting in the centre
OF the bale stones, gravel and other foreign
substances. There are severe laws In most
OF the Southern States against frauds OF this
character, and In consequence of the injuri-
Gus effect upon the trade which last years
fraudulent practices caused, these laws will
be sternly enforced by planters and dealers
at the South whenever an opportunity pre-
sents itself.

John Bright on War In Egypt.
Pail Mall Gazette.

Mr.. Bright, in reply to a correspond
ent who has written to him on the sub
ject of "war in the abstract" and the
Egyptian war in particular, writes:
CAssENCARY, CREETOWN, N. B., Sen
tember 25.-DEAR SIR The Spectator
and other supporters of this war answer
me by saying that | oppose the war be-
cause / condemn all war The same thing
was said during the Crimean war. /
have not opposed any war on the ground
that all war is unlawful and immoral I
have never expressed such an
opinion. l have discussed these uues-
tions of war, Chinese, Crimean, Afghan,
Zulu, Egyptian, on grounds common to
and admitted by all thoughtful men, and
have condemned them with arguments,
which, believe. have never been
answered. l will not discuss the alb
stract question. shall be content when
we reach the point at which all Chris
tian men will condemn war when it is
unnecessary, unjust and leading to no
useful or good result. We are far from
that point now, but we make some way
toward it. But of this war I may say
this, that it has no better justification
than other wars which have gone before
it, and that doubtless when the blood is
shed and the cost paid and the results
seen and weighed we shall be generally
of that opinion. Perhaps the b0ndhold-
ers and those who made money by it
and those who have got promotion and
titles and pensions will defend it, but
thoughtful and Christian men will con-
demn it. l am, etc.,

The Congressional Election In The
First District.

Aditor Morning Neaos: The election of Mr.
Stephens has already had, and will continue
to have, happy aud powerful Il fuence
beyond the borders of Georgia; and, whilst
it is true that many good and true Demo-
Gratis, in Georgia and elsewhere, have bolted
their party nominations In days past with
view that 1t would reform evils therein. It is
also happily true that in hours of danger
they have buried all differences and united
hesrt and hand against the common foe,
for foe he is, Republican or Democrat,
whether found In town or city precinct, or
county district, or State, who will influence
the passions of the blacks against the
whites, either for the purposes of promo
tion, gain or revenge.
1t is fact that designing men have taken
advantage of the Independent spirit mani
tested In different parts of the State in order
TO carry out their purpose to break up the
Democratic party. Hence. It matters not
whether we are personally Satisfied with the
nominations or not, circumstances conspire
to make 1t our duty to do all in our power
TO elect our regular nominees. l have al
ways opposed Col. Nichols, but shall do all
In my power to make his majority over
whelming over Atkins, whose only hope of
success lies in the race issue, which is q
curse-a miserable worm eating into the
verv vItals of our politics.
Colonel Nichols is of our own household,
and should be supported, particularly in this
great crisis in American politics, for If we
win generally, as signs indicate we will, It
will result in the final annihilation of the
Black Republican party. It should be de-
stroyed, for any party standing on the negro
race for success is an enemy of both races
and a curse to the religion Of Christ and the
civilization of the age. But for those
miserable Radical, and worse than Radical,
vampires the relations of the races In
the South would be perfectly friendly.
Once Independentism meant reform, now it
means ruin, and no we'll thinking man who
has the good OF his country at heart can
any longer follow that line of conduct.
Better submit TO evils within the party
than to be instrumental in bringing greater
evils upon It and the country generally,
for the conduct of Gartrell and others
great and small, who move in the same
paths, should satisfy the most skeptical that
the only friend of true Democracy is De-
mocracy itself as held by the organized
party. There is no hope whatever In any
other direction.
l do not think that there now remains any
serious evils in the party to be reformed. l
think that Independentism as held by good
men has fulfilled its mission in purifying
the psrty, aud 1t will continue to grow
purer as it grows stronger In its rapid march
towards signal triumph which awaits It In
the near and Frightening future.

Breadstnfrs in Britain.

LONDON, October 16 The Mark Lane Ez-
preEs, in its review of the.British grain trade
during the past week, says: "The weather
continues favorable. Some of the provin-
cisl markets are a shilling higher for
fine, dry wheat. In London the
prices are unchanged. Flour has
been dull but, quotations are
nominally unaltered. Mating barley has
been in steady demand. Old oats are hard
ening. The foreign wheat trade is in a state
Of suspense. Prices remain the same except
for red winter, which is Sd. higher. Flour
is quotably unaltered. The stocks are
very heavy, and imports are likely
to continue on a large scale. Maize
is about 2s. dearer. The available supply
is very small. Off coast cargoes have been
very quiet, buyers acting with great caution.
There were fifteen fresh arrivals. Seven
cargoes were sold, six were withdrawn, and
eleven remain, nine of which are American.
Over twenty cargoes are due this week.

THE STAR ROUTES.
Increase of Mileage and Decrease of
Cost.

WASHINGTON, October 16-The annual
report OF Second Assistant Postmaster Gene
raj Elmer is nearly completed. Contrary to
the predictions which have been made, it
will show decided increase in the mileage
OF the star route service for the last fiscal
year as compared with that OF the year
ended June 30, 1880, when the average
mileage was thought to have reached It's
maximum. The report will also show that,
Notwithstanding this increase of mileage,
the cost Of maintaining the service
has been less than in 1880 by
more than a million of dollars.
On the basis of one trip per week there
were S53. S72 more miles Travelled in star
route service during the last fiscal year than
during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1880,
and this increase in mileage was attained
with decrease in the expenditure of
81, ,767, $50. 1t is estimated by General Elmer
that the star route service for the fiscal wear
ending June 30, 1884, for which estimates
will be submitted in his forthcoming report.
will cost less than the service during the
current fiscal year 1923, by about $543, $50.

The Republican Stampede In New

afternoon in the shape of a letter from
Judge William j. Bacon, member of the
Forty-6fth Congress from the Oneida dis
trict, and formerly Judge Of the Supreme
Court of this State, repudiating the doings
at Saratoga and declaring outright that he

Bacon says: I shall vote for Cleveland

can to vote for the two men on the Saratoga
ticket, whose nomination was conceived
in sin and brought forth In iniuuitv /:
but, on the other hand, both conscience and
honor compel me to repudiate them. Fraud.
falsehood and forgery vitiate all contracts

high time to administer a rebuke to the ad-
ministration at Washington; to say win
some emphasis that the citizens Of a sover-
eign State are not prepared to accept of a
candidate made by its order, nor TO allow
any President, regular or accidental, to tell

not nominate for their own rulers

the acceptance Of accomplished facts in

lands reply to the Porte's note in regard to
