THE NEW TELEGRAPH COMPANY.
It, Lines to be in Working Order by the
Middle of November.

It, Lines to be in Working Order by the
Middle of November.
several days ago the MORNING News
published an interview with Mr.. Dill, the
Superintendent Of the work of putting up
wires in the Southern circuit for the
Southern Telegraph Company, in which
some very interesting Information was
given to the public. The Augusta EceR-
ing Ne,rs of Thursday contains further
information concerning the new line. 1t
is stated that the telegraph poles of the
new company were now halfway between
Augusta and Columbia, and would be in
the former city the last of next week. The
wires will be up in Augusta by the first
week in November, and this power
full opposition to Mr.. Jay Gould and
the Western Union will then be ready for
business. 1t is thought that by
the middle of November Augusta
will be in telegraphic connection over the
new Southern wires with Charleston, Sa-
yannah, Columbia, Atlanta, Columbus
and all neighbOring cities. The lines
already extend and are operated as far
South as WinnSbOro, near Columbia, over
/ 800 miles are built west of Pittsburg and
the company is moving straight through
the south to New Orleans. The company
has the right OF way over the South Caro-
lima. Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta,
and the whole Georgia Central system,
and will permeate the whole South with
the opposition line TO the Western Union.
The Southern Telegraph Company Is so
called from Washington south, and is un-
der the presidency of a. w. DimOck, Of
New York. The company north extends
to New York and Boston, and Northern
cities. and is known as the American
Rapid. IL enjoys the traffic facilities
over the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph
Company, which is also Independent of
the Western Union, and thus reaches
Chicago and the West.

Tennessee Crop Report for October 1883

The following report of the yield,
condition, and acreage of the various
crops, also the condition of stock, is
based on returns from nearly FIVE hun.
dred correspondents from ninety>three
counties.
WEATHER.
During the early part of the month,
crops were still suffering from the eff,
tccts oftho protracted drouth, but later,
abundant rains in most Of the counties
revived the condition of the late crops,
restored in measure the pastures
which had almost dried up, and placed
the ground in fine condition for seeding
wheat and other grain. Added to this
the mild temperature Of the latter
part of the month was exceedingly
favorable to farmers, in the maturing
of the corn, cotton and tobacco crops
thereby very materially enhancing thu
yield of these products.

STOCK PEAS.
The value of this crop, both as fer.
tilizer and as a forage, is beginning to
be appreciated by the farmers through.
out the State, and it is to be regretted
that the present crop, which was so
promising in the early part of the Sc .
son, was cut short by Che drouth.
HOGS.
Reports from most of the counties
indicate considerable increase in the
number of fattening hogs, and in a
majority of cases the conditions are
above the average of last year. Stock
hogs are also reported plentiful and il
fine condition in most of the counties.
Cholera is still reported in some locali>
ties. but the general average is much
better. The heavy mast in many
counties has saved great deal of corn,
and the prospects are favorable for +
good supply of pork and bacon
Several counties report at least one
half of the hogs already sold for pork
OTHER STOCK.
The general condition of other stock
is about last years average. A few
counties report murrain still prevailing
to some extent among cattle. Since
the fall rains. which have so much i'm
proved pastures, the conditions OF
stock show very material improve.

continue to come in of the raids on
sheep by worthless dogs, and not few
report that sheep husbany is rapidly on
