The reputation of Vignaux, the French
billiard player, has been considerably damaged,
apparently, since he came to this country. He
was defeated in Chicago by Schaeler, and at the
tournament in this city this week he has been
beaten by Daily and Dion. Even the Chicago
defeat was hardly fair test of his powers,
and it should be remembered that the rules
under which the present series of games is
played are different from those Vignaux has
been accustomed to. American players
however, have had considerable experience at
cushion caIoms. 1t was not distance alone that
lent enchantment to the view we had of
Vignaux when he was in Paris. He is great
billiard player anywhere, and the men who
applaud when he misses shot ought to be
ashamed of their discOurtesy.

In some portions of the State, the
ungathered corn was damaged to some
extent by the storm of the 21st, by
being blown down. Some portions re.
port the yield not being as good as was
expected, while many report an i'm
provement in the expected yield. In
a portion of Knox county the crop is
reported the poorest in 40 years.

Line after line along the breaking sod
Marks the broad acres where his feet have

Still where he treads the stubborn clOds d.

Matted and dense the tangled turf upheaves,
Mellow and dark the ridgy cornfeld cleaves.

Plants the long track that scores the level

Through the moist valley, clogged with
O0zlng clay,
The patient convoy breaks Its destined way.
At every turn the loosened chains resound
The swinging plowsharer circles glistening

A Curious Needle.

The King of Prussia recently visited
a needle mandatory in bis kingdom,
in order to see what machinery, COM
bined with the human hand, could pro-
duce. He was shown a number of
super6ne needles, thousands of which,
together, did not weigh halt an ounce,
and marveled how such minute objects
could be pierced with an eye. But he
was to see that in this respect even
something still finer and more perfect
could be created. The bOIer-that j;
the workman whose business it is ia
bore the eyes IN these needles-ask
for a hair from the monarch's head.
1t WAS readily given and with smile
He placed 1t at once under the boring
machine, made hole in it with the
greatest care, furnished il with thread
and then handed the singular needle
to the astOnished king.

Tennessee Crop Report.

The following report of the yield,

the condition Of stock, is compiled from

COTTON.

The reports from this crop indicate
generally an increase in the expected
yield since our last report. In some
portions of West Tennessee the unma-
tured crop was somewhat injured by
the frost, but generally it had the effect
Of Fastening its maturing, thus enabling
planters to complete the gathering of
the crop before the severe winter sets
in. il is estimated that seven-eighths
of the crop has been gathered and a
large proportion If this has already
been marketed. There is, fortunately
for our farmers, a tendency to decrease
the acreage in this crop and substitute
Err it the more adaptable crops Of grain:
and grasses. As this is done the era OF
substantial prosperity will become evi
dent.

WEATHER.

The mild temperature of the past
month was very favorable for the m :
turing of late crops, and for gathering
those that we're ready to be housed,
and farmers generally took advantage
of the opportunity presented, and as a
result, a larger proportion of these
crops were gathered and housed and
marketed during the month than fol
many years past. The cold weather
alb ut the middle of the month checked
to some extent the growth of some, bu
taking it altogether farmers have haG
but little cause for complaint as to the
conditions.

TURNIPS.

The prospective yield in this crop
has been materially lessened by the
drouth which continued long after the
seeding. The later rains have i'm
proved the prospect, slill the crup will
fall considerably below the average.

WHEAT.

The reports from the young crop are
mostly favorable. In addition to the
largely increased acreage sown, the
care and attention given to the seeding
IN preparation of the ground, the Sc
lection Of good qualities Of grain, the
judicious application of fertilizers and
the improved methods of seeding, give
promise of perhaps the best crop, un-
der favorable conditions, that was ever
made in the STATE. In some portion,
Of the State the interest in growing
wheat is steadily increasing, and with
the above mentioned improved systems
Tennessee will soon take her proper
place in the production Of this great
cereal. Seven counties report the ap
pearance of the fly, and in one or two
the late cold spell injured the crop t
