Nashville World: The commission.
er of agriculture is of the opinion
that there is not as much as three
thousand acres of Irish potatoes
planted in Davidson county as a
crop product, other estimates to the
contrary, Notwithstanding. The crop
is reported at ninety.four per cent,
as compared with that of 1882, but
the commissioner does not believe it
will turn out that well. 1t is true
the vine is vigorous, but it is also
true that they are deficient as to tu>
bers, both as to numbers and size.
The drought of one month ago injur-
ed the crop irreparably. Some of
our potato growers say the crop will
not yield seventy-fve per cent. of
what it did in 1882. He has no doubt
good quality of Irish potatoes will
command in the Nashville and Mem.
phis markets from three to three and
one-half dollars before the close of
July. He would advise all persons
interested in the sale of their crops
to apply to bankers in the northern
and northwestern cities for the names
of responsible dealers in Irish pota>
toes and correspond with them as to
prices per car load lots. Do not de-
fer this matter, and above all, they
should not give away their crops. II
the entire state of Tennessee was
planted in potatoes, it would not jus.
tify their sale at two dollars per bar.

We are glad TO sec that the city
press have agitated the loose manage
ment of the postal service to such an
extent that the department has taken
cogniZance Of the matter. 1t is said
that from two to three.tenths of the
newspapers mailed by private citi-
Eens fail to reach the persons to whom
they are addressed II is said, fur
Their, that newspaper in a single
wrapper is not of 60 much Importance
as a letter, and consequently the
clerks do not trouble themselves to
trace it when mislaid. While it may
not he of so great value, yet it is as
much the duty of the government to
see to its safe delivery as if it was a
letter. The sender prepays his post
age, and the department has con-
tracted to carry and deliver it. One
is as much a contract as the other,
and is just as binding. There is en-
tirely too much careless Indifference
displayed in this respect, and we hope
to see it remedied soon. But the
press overlook one reason why paper
mails are delayed. 1t is we'll known
that the force of postal clerks on the
railways in this part Of the country are
not numerous enough to do the work
put on them. The mails going south
over the roads passing this place are
so heavy that it is physical impos>
sibility for the men to do the work.
We have heard that the superinten-
dent of this division j. ambitious to
make reputation as great econo-
mist, and thus gain favor at head
quarters. This he does at the ex.
pense of the men under him, by
working them to death almost and
then fining them for absence when
sick. Let this penny~wise foolish
ness be stopped. The mails are run
rthe benefit of all the people and not
for the profit of few stuck.up Office
holders, who imagine themselves to
be the masters, when they are only
the servants of the people. Let us
have clerks enough to do the work
promptly, and much complaint will
cease in this section.

The Supreme Court adjourned last
Wednesday before announcing its
decision in the Memphis gambling
case. Judge Cooper was heard to say,
last Thursday, that the act was nn~
constitutional, and We suppose that
will be the decision of the court. He
says it was another piece of careless
legislation, which might as we'll have
been done right as wrong.

Our readers will be shocked to
learn of the death of Mr.. John II.
Freeman, clerk of the supreme court.
He was stricken with paralysis a few
days since and died last Thursday
morning. He had not been in good
health for some time. He was an exs
cellent clerk, a fine business man,
and had many very warm friends.

An exchange says; The new pos.

guilty of such an action is liable to
criminal proceedings, the same as if

his subscription.

That is what a great

They don't know just what

TENNESSEE CROPS.

Wheat harvest is progressing and
the yield will be good"
Covington Call, 9Th: Cotton is
looking puny all over the county.
Corn has regained its green color and
looks well, but is small. The potato
crop is the best for many years."
Carolina, Haywood county: "The
wheat is ripening fast and the har.
vest will soon be ready-and the la
borers are not a few. Jotton-bad
stand and looks sick; corn looking
fne."
jackson Wing, 9Th; "The past
few days of warm weather have had
a good effect upon the growing crops
in this section, which, from the pres
ent outlook, promise an average
yield"
Upton Record: clog and homi>
ny will be cheap and plentiful anoth.
er year if nothing happens. The old.
est citizens say they never saw the
county SC well supplied or in better
condition than at present"
The Upton County Record says:
"The planters report good stands of
both cotton and corn, but too much
rain. Some express the fear that the
grass will get the upper hand of the
cotton unless there is more favorable
weather for cultivation"
Most of the farms in Haywood
county, will in few years be self,
supportiye; that is, no meat and
breadstuffs will have to be bought.
Nearly every farmer in the county
will produce this year enough wheat,
corn and meat for his own consump.
ton, and many of them will produce
more than enough. The county is
full of fine hogs.
Dresden Enterprise: ut is but a
short while till wheat will be ready
for the harvest. 1t is very probable
that the yield will be large. The
fruit crop will be far behind that of
last year. We have noticed num-
Der of apple trees, with little or no
fruit on them, whose branches last
| year were broken by an abundant
yield. This years inferior fruit crop
is attributable to spring of unusual
cold"
Ripley News, 9Th: "The late rains
and warm weather has brought out
the corn and oats wonderfully all
over the county. Corn and cotton
along the wagon road between this
point and Gates is said to be looking
splendidly. We learn from gentle.
man who has been through the dis
trict that Notwithstanding the cold
weather the prospect for good cot
ton and corn crop was never better
in the Sixth District than at present.
Brownsville Democrat, 9th: "In
Lauderdale county there are neigh
borhoods where the crops are not
looking well. The wheat crop is con-
siderably below that of last year,
both in acreage and quality. The
following is the crop report for that
part of this district that borders on
the river: Corn not good as it was
last year; cotton good, no permanent
damage having been done by the cold
weather; wheat not good; oats fine;
fruit promising. Hogs are plentiful
and in fine condition. In the Eighth
District cotton and corn are doing
well; oats fine; wheat poor; fruits me-
dunn; potatoes, clover and grasses
fine. Large quantity of peas planted"
An agricultural exchange says:
Every paper in the United States
ought occasionally to keep the fact
before its readers that burnt corn is
a certain and speedy cure for hog
cholera. The best way is to make
a pile of corn on the cobs, effectually

Ambitious Young Army OAacers AnxiO


Ambitious Young Army Officers Anxious
for War.
WARRINGTON, June 10.-Many Of the
ambitious young officers Of the army and
navy make no secret of the fact that a war
between the United atates and some for
eign government would be most agreeable
TO them, as IL would open the door TO rank
aud fame. It does not look as If they
would be gratiied very soon, and unless
they can lind other avenues for the free play
of the martial spirit that is In them, they
must await promotion through the slow
process in time of peace OF death Of their
superiors. Some of them, 1t Is said, are
anxious'to enter the service of China In the
war now imminent between that country
and France, as they see opportunities for
both distinction and riches.
The Oriental powers which have accepted
the services of foreigners have loaded them
with honors OF a substantial not less than
OF complimentary character. But whether
In this instance China will care to take for
eigners into her service is yet TO be discov-
cred, and whe ther, IL II should, our govern
ment would consider IL expedient or proper
to sanction the resignation of its officers Tor
that purpose is somewhat doubtful.
From what Is intimated about the Chi
nese legation here, there is no apprehension
whatever at home as to the result OF the
conflict with France, but, 10 the contrary,
both government and people are anxious to
try conclusions with the French republic.
rne Chinese are remarkably quick-witted
and the most initiative people In the world.
In the 20 years that they have had COM
mercial intercourse with the ''outside bar.
barians" they have familiariZed themselves
with modern improvements and appliances
of all kinds, and it Is significantly hinted at
the legation that the French W Il find in the
hands of their opponents every military
engine of destruction of the latest make, In
the most abundant quantities, and their use
directed by men who thoroughly under
stand them.
As to numbers, the Chinese, with their
redundant and overhowing population, can
very easily bring ten men into the field
where the French can bring one. Under
the circumstances, 1t may be that the Chi
nese Government will be quite content "a
try its own hand with its foe before availing
itself Of protiers from the outside.
