first. the mills OF the former State as a gen
eral thing, being large and having heavy
capital; while in the latter, though more
numerous, the mills are much smaller.
The leading mill I'm Georgia, and iD fact
the leading one Of the South, Is the
Eagle and Phoenix, which has a capital Of
Sl,oOO, 700 and runs over 40, 900 spindles. As
regards capital invested. MARYLAND is next
to Georgia, having 81, 1s0. 900 In this Industry,
while North Carolina has Sc, ,32S, coo and South
Carolina $500, $50. The total number of
spindles In the South is ,237, 400, while of
looms there are 20, 600 and of sets of cards
1881. While It has been impossible to OBJ
tain the exact number of hands employed
in these mills, careful calculation enables
US to estimate 1t at over 40, ,000.
For many years Maryland's cotton mil]s
have maintained an enviable position In q a
manufacturing world. Woodberry, town
of some 1000 inhabitants, situated iurt
outside OF the limits of Baltimore city, is the
seat Of number OF these mills-the Mount
Vernon, the Druid and Hooper's mills all
being located at that thriving manufacturing
town. These mills, like nearly all the Others
named In the foregoing list, are owned in
here. The Mount Vernon, the
Washington, the Clipper, the Druid
and che Woodberry are all largely en-
gagged In making cotton duck, of which
these mills make so per cent. OF all that IS
manufactured In the United States. This
cotton duck is known far and wide for its
unsurpassed excellence. While no new
cotton mills have been organized In Mary
land lately, yet the old ones have been con-
stantlv increasing their capacity and adding
new and improved machinery. The inan-
cial results Of cotton manufacturing In this
State have been very satisfactory, and the
mai ority OF firms engaged in the business
have accumulated great wealth.
While cstton manufacturing Ia the South Is
now attracting so much attention, 1t Is quits
certain that it will develop a stiI greater
interest In the near futOre. There are even
now many new projects under way which

years we think It perfectly safe TO say that
the South will have 500, ,0O0,0 900 invested in
cotton mills, with 2,500,00O spindles end
fully 100, 900 operatives, d In the not very
distant future even these figures will be

Interesting TO Rice Planters.

Extract from Net0 Orleans Picaytne. Sept, IL
QUARANTINE STATION, September H.
An examination Of the coast
for ten miles above here, and a conversation
with planters for twenty miles establishes the
fact that for the east side of the river as far
up as MOnsecour the rice crop is destroyed,
and on the west side of the river over a
quarter of the crop is lost. Mr.. Belt, pro-
prietor Of the rice place just above the
quarantine station, estimates the loss at q
little more than do.
The damage to the levees from here up
the river cannot be even Appropriated.
The west bank Of the river for many miles
up and down is covered with rice sheaves
driven over the river by the storm, and the
fences are buried with the rescued rice
driving. Much rice will thus be saved, and
in my estimate Of the total loss l hare
allowed for this saving.

CREEDMOOR,
The British Team Again Victorious

ING BRUSH Ieam Again Victorious.
NEW YORK, September IA strong
northwest wind blew all day long, and veri-
fed the prediction that the scores would be
low. Considering the wind of yesterday and
to- day and the general circumstances sur
rounding the match, which rendered shoot
ing more than ordinarily difficult, the scores
were very good. 1t was possible for each
team to make $3.50, 210 points to each man, =,
with clean score all through. The two
stages, or the six distances fired at, and the
1875 OF the British and the 1906 of the
americans, is not at all bad showing.
To the spectators the 40 majority
OF the English seemed terrible pile,
but in reality it is not. The average
of the British individually for to-day is
76 1-12. and for the American, per man
$50. The average per man for the entire
match is British 1874 7-12 and for the Ameri-
can 154 1-6. The English led at every range
from the start, commencing with lead of
y at 200 yards. Yesterday they increased It
to Is at 500, and 10 at 600 yards With this
start to-day they rolled it up at the 800
yards to 81, at 800 to 80, and at the finish to
ITO. The scores at to-day's ranges were as
follows:
American-255, 271 and 236.
British-293, 3l3 and 307.

THE TOMBSTONE EDITORS.
Aouestion as to Revolvers-The Duel OF.

TOMBSTONE, ARIZONA, September 15.-
The duel between Editor Purdy of the
Epitaph, and Editor Hamilton of the Inde-
pendent, is off. The party rendezvoused
near the Sonora line yesterday. They
camped and slept till morning. The ground
was measured off and the combatants placed
in position, when dispute arose about the
weapons. Hamilton, as the challenged par
ty, had provided two new Colts revolvers.
Both of these were tried by the challenger,
and rejected because they were too hard on
the trigger. The challenger offered his
pair, but these were IN turn rejected by the
other party because of the owners famil-
iarity with them and the probability that he
had been practicing at target with them.
All sorts OF compromises were offered and
rejected on one side or the other, and las the
final result, both parties left the ground and
the negotiations abruptly terminated.
