Long Island Pickles.

The pickle business is assuming LARGER
proportions this year than eyer before in
this vicinity. A large numberof farmers
are deyoting a few of their acres to the
growing of this usually profitable crop.
About four car loads, or SOC, 900 pickles.
were shipped from Huntington station on
Monday, and probably as MANY more
were received at Greenlawn At Hum
tington station on that day about two car
loads were shipped by one firm, and two
car loads were shipped to New York for
the regular market. The local company
pay $1.25 per thousand s'spot cash. for
the pickles delivered at the station and
furnish the barrels themselves, while
those shipped to New York bring from
$l.5O to 81 per thousand, according to
size and state OF market on day of receipt,
and the farmers have to furnish their
own barrels. Saturdays they usually
touch the lowest prices of the week, as
they are more difficult to dispose of on
that day, and if kept twenty-four hours
turn yellow and are about Worthless.
The largest pickles bring aboutfifty cents
per thousand more than the smallest.
A barrel contains about one thousand two
hundred of the former and two thousand
of the latter. The loss of barrels is
serious item TO the farmer. Sometimes
more than half their barrels, are lost and
it is great trouble to keep track of those

Hon. b. F. OvERToN, the recently
elected Governor, or Chief, of the Chick
asaw Nation, is what would be termed
by his white or civilized" brothers, an
anti-monopolist. He is a man of educa-
ton and ability, and strong partisan of
the Indians against all attempts to in
fringe upon their rights as guaranteed by
solemn treaties. He has filed the posi-
ton for five years and during his admin
istration the Indians have made giant
strides in the matter of progress. The
Nation comprises tract of land eighty
miles square, running from the Red to the
Canadian River. The land is very fer
tile, and many of the Indians have
amused fortunes from raising and selling
stock. The Chickasaws were opposed to
the bill which recently passed Congress
granting the right of way to the st.
Louis & San Francisco Road through
the Indian country, and Overton said
before and since his reelection that he
would fight tho railroads to the bitter
end.

THE BATTLES ON THE NILE.

The British have blockaded the Egyptian
coast.
From the tone of the dispatches from Alex.
andria, the 9th, there appears to have been
some heavy skirmishing near Ismalia, on the
day before. British accounts state that at the
outset of the fight their forces were under a very
heavy fire, especially from the Egyptian tent
where ten guns rained shells necessarily. The
enemy played freely upon the Household
Cavalry, and two Calling guns served by the
marines were unable to go into action on ac-
count of the severity of the enemy's artillery
fire. The fight commenced at six in the morn.
ing and was kept up pretty much all day, as
the account says: Towards midday the
enemy got our range more completely than
before, and landed shells right in our midst
BY noon the heat was so intense that many of
our men were attacked with dysentery and sun.
stroke" The English loss is put at fifty killed
and wounded. Egyptian loss not given. On the
2Sth the man-of-war Minotour successfully
shelled the enemy out of Mandria on the line
between Ramleh and Aboukir. The troops
are continually advancing, and it will not be
long before Tel ell Kebr is attacked Be-
tween Ramleh and Maxama the ground is
good for marching, but the canal was full OF
dead horses and the bodies of Arabs. Some
of the latter were thrown there by their COM
rades.
An Alexandria correspondent with the
English army in Egypt says that after the re-
cent battle at Kassasin two acres of ground
were thickly strewn with the dead Egyptians.
The bodies of Egyptian soldiers were hacked
and slashed almost out of semblance to hu-
manity by the long broadswords of the
Guards. Arabi's loss in this battle is esti-
mated at 400 killed and wounded.
