An Adjournment OF tho Investigation
TIL December 10.

TIL December 10.
Before the Proetus commission yesterday
letter to Adit. Gen. Drum was read from
Brig. Gen. Benet in reference to Capt Pike.
The letter stated that facts had developed
during tho inquiry which rendered it neces-
sary that Mr.. Richard Pike master of the
ship Proetus, should be called before the
court to testify as to certain allegations made
against his own conduct and that of his crew.
The court also thought that Capt. Clapp, of
the 10th infantry, and Capt. Powell, of the
9th infantry, would be material witnesses in
the case. The court therefore asked that
these witnesses bo brought before it. and to
give the necessary time an adjournment till
the nineteenth of December was submitted
for the approval of the secretary of war.
Gen. Drums reply announced that the wit
nesses would be brought, and the adjourn
ment approved. The court then adjourned
till the nineteenth proximo.

Rasborough for the murder of Capt William
Heydt, soldier of the Tooth Ohio infantry,
was begun in the criminal court to-day but
was not concluded. The evidence shows
wanton and unprovoked assault upon an in
firm and helpless man, such as is rarely
equaled for cold blooded atrocity. Capt.
Heydt was boarder at down town hotel,
living quietly on a pension awarded him for
wounds received in the service, and on the
night of his DEATH Aug. last, while seated
in chair on the sidewalk, was approached
by Rasborough, who. without word, struck
Capt Heydt several powerful blows on the
head. killing him. Not word had been ex-
changed between the mon.

CIGARETTE MANUFACTURE.

A correspondent of the Buffalo Courier,
who has been visiting cigarette factory in
Richmond, describes the process of manu-
facture as follows: Mounting to the third
floor We were ushered into room about
fifty feet square, filed with rows of benches
like school room, at which about 200 girls,
mostly from fifteen to twenty years old, are
busily at work. These girls are all rolling
cigarettes of the brand known as Old Rip
Each has certain quantity of tobacco
weighed out to her twice day, for which
she must return certain number of cigar
sites. The rapidity with which the girls
urn out these boy killers is something quite
astonishing The work is done entirely by
dand. The papers used are placed on the
able before them in packages of about 200,
when by q bit of sleight hand they are
showed or drawn one from the other so as to
cave a slight space at the edge of each sheet
projecting from beneath the next one above
t, like the blocks of pyramid. paste
brush drawn across these edges gums the
whole package at one stroke. Then one
paper being taken up at time, pinch of
obacco in front of the worker is dropped
ipon it; it is then whisked under piece of
linen paper about four inches square, one
tide of which is fast to the table; this is
iolded over the cigarette, and By one or
wo quick slidings back and forth of this
PAPER beneath the operators fingers the
cigarette is formed Some gum each one
s it is formed. A good roller will make
1000 per day. The girls are paid by the
,iece. making from So so to 81 per week."

SILENT SourHERNERs.

One thing that impresses me deeply here
Is the silence OF the men, both black and
white. Imean the men from the country.
A sdey in Western town when wheat OF
corn is marketed is q noisy day. Men
laugh; they call loudly to each other; they
joke; the banks are crowded; the saloons
filed to overlooking the elevators are filled
with good-natured men, and there ia the
loud hum of human voices everywhere the
horses are driven rapidly; the strong, heavy
wagons rumble loudly. Here all is silent,
all is slow. The people are sedate There
seems to be no humor among them. Grave
ly they sell their cotton and other farm pro
duce. The sales over, the streets rapidly
become deserted. The teams that came
from distance SO great as to forbid return
ing that day are driven to corrals. Most of
the Transfers bring fodder for their animals
and blankets and food for thes elves.
These farmers are much more economical
than Northern men. The teams are fed and
watered, fires are built in the corral, and the
teamsters, many of whom are small farm
ers, gather around the blaze and talk in low
tones while they eat heard no aongs, no
laughter, around these fires. The talk is
earnest and generally about crops, but fire.
quently they talk of politics. have yet to
hear any talk among the comparatively un.
educated white men about the negro ques.
lion. That it is an active and probably dan.
gerous question they do not seem to believe.
At any rate, the common people of South
Carolina do not discuss IT, NJ y. San.

ETIQUETTE AT A PUBLIC TABLE.


After telling of the Wilde aesthetics dis.
heartening experiences, the New York cor.
respondent of the Boston Herald writes as
follows: But am bound to say Oscar is
right in his assertion that manners, as dis
pkyed at the American dinner tables, are
bad on the average. The justice of the
blame is not shaken by the fact that, as like
ly as not, the offender against good taste is

these places have wide range, and do not
vary consistently with quantities and quail

excellent meal of six courses, with pint OF
claret, can be had for $i.25. That was true
of the concern where ate on this occasion,
The cooking was good the portions ample,
the wine tolerable, the service not to be
complained of, the room handsomely fur
nished, and the house situated in fashona-

about the eaters. There were thirty-one of
them at the time l counted Among the of.
fences that came under my observation were
these; Three tucked their napkins under
their chins; two thrust their spoons clear
into their mouths with every dip of soup;
one used his knife to put food into his
mouth; one took up patty in her hand to
eat it; one blew his nose four times; one
scratched his head with fork; two got
their mustaches into an unsightly condition !;
one kept his hat on; one kept her hands

ting their tables, two being handsomely
dressed women two were loisterous in
talking and laughing, and one was constant

company. The last mentioned was myself.

napkins will not be condemned by all my
readers, aud have left out an independent

A CHAPTER OF ACCIDENTS.


The circumstances were these: A large
irn in prominent business street proposed
to have its store thoroughly washed, and so
sent its janitor to get some soap. Some
Thing induced him to invest in key of soft
soap, and he started to roll it to the office.
The key was something larger than beer
reg and not half so substantial, but the old
man got along very well with it until he
came to crossing. He was rolling it along

wheel hit the cask, aud in minute the soap
vas flowing in every direction The old
ianitor gave whoop of despair and, while
ne gazed at the scene Of ruin, along came a
aattily dressed drummer. He didn't OBJ
serve the soft soap till he stepped in it.
You know how slippery soft soap is. The
lrummer's feet shot from under him and he
lever slid two rods ON his back so quickly
before in his life. He Scooped up about a
pint of soap with each trousers leg and each
sleeve. When he tried to get up he went
down again, and policeman who ran to his
assistance went down, too. When they
inally got on their feet each was a sight
and the drummer said he expected to throw
away every rag he had on and take two
Turkish baths TO get clean. The officer was
mad, and said somebody ought to be run in,

NEW YORK, 1888.

More people have read THE Sun du ing the year
Just now passing than ever before since it was
mrs, printed No other newspaper published on
this side of the earth has been bought and read in
any year by so many men and women.
Weare credibly Informed that people buy, read
others:
Because its news columns present in attractive
form and with the greatest possible accuracy
whatever has interest for humankind the events,
the deeds and misdeeds, the wisdom the philoso.
ply, the notable folly. the solid sense the i'm
proving nonsense--all the news Of the busiest
world at present revolving In space
Because people have learned that in lis remarks
concerning persons and affairs THE Sun makes
practice of telling them the exact truth TO the
pest Of is ability three hundred and sixty-fye
days in the year. before election as well as a fer
about the whales as well as about the small fish.
IN the lace of dissent as plainly and fearlessy as
when supported by general approval, THE sun
mas aosoiuteiy no purposes to serve, save the in
formation OF It's readers and the fuIthefance of
the common good
Becaese IL is everybody's newspaper No man
Is 50 humble that TIE sun Is indifferent to his
welfare and his rights. No man Is so rich that IL
can allow Injustice TO he done him. No man no
association OF men, Is powerful enough TO be ex-
tmpt from the strict application Of It's principles
Because in politics 1T has fought for a dozen
years, without int Emission and sometimes almost
alone among newspapers, the fight that has result
ed IN the recent overwhelming popular verdict
against Robesonism and for honest government.
NO matter what party Is In power, THE sun
S."hus anu VIII continue 10 stand ike q rock for
me interests OF the people against the ambition
o. bosses, the eneroachments of monopolists and
the dishonest schemes of public robbers
All this IS what we are told almost daily by our
friends. One man holds that THE Sun Is the best
religious newspaper ever ever published. because
its Christianity is undiluted with can't Another
holds that il is the best Republican newspaper
printed because il has already whipped half Of
the raseals out OF that party, and is proceeding
against the other half with undiminished yigor
third believes il to be the best magazine OF
general literature in existence because its readers
miss nothing worthy of notice that Is current In
the world of thought. So every friend Of The
Sun discovers one of its many sides that appeals
with particular force to his individual liking.

that in 1883 1t is little better than ever before
II you do not already know THR sun you will and
1t 10 be mirror OF all human activity, q store
house of the choicest products of common sense
and imagination, a.mainstay for the cause of hon

species, and an uncommonly good investment for

GEORGIA HOSPITALITY.
tfew CHESTS Are Received and Entertained
Down SOnth.

AS got beyond Roseville, in riding out
to the battlefield Of Chickamauga, it began
to rain, and the way the thunder roared and
the lightning flashed and the food-gates
opened was appalling. A farmer just over
the Georgia line beckoned me in out of the
wet, and there stuck from one o'clock till
dark 1t was steady storm, without a
break for minute, and as there was no
sign of its clearing up before midnight the
man said l had better stay all night. 1t
looked that way to me, too; but it was a
log house, with only one room and only two
beds for the twelve of us. There were six
children, some nalf grown, the farmer and
his wife, an old woman, son-in-law,
young woman and myself 1t looked as if
some OF us would have to stand up to sleep,
and along about nine o'clock / began to get
nervous. Perhaps, the man noticed it, for
soon after that hour he said:
Stranger, wen step ont and look at tn
weather."
We went to the barn, and after a look at
the horse returned and found all the women
in one bed and the light out

whispered the man, and / followed direc-

Then came the young man, then the old one,
and then three boys lay across our feet, the
upper one resting across my knees. 1t was
impossible to move or turn, but in ten min
utes all were snoring away as if that was
their usual way of going to bed. 1 heard
the old clock strike eleven, twelve, one and
two, and was finally doing off when some
one opened the door, walked in and began
