The State Journal, having learned
the views of f. w, Reyes relative
to the TRInUSE's suggestions to-
ward harmonizing the Republicans
of the Sd District, has been deliy-
cred of an opinion, which opinion
SO strikingly resembles the .Kes es
opinion, given through an inter
viewer two weeks ago, that there
can be no dispute as to its paternity.
Up to this date the Journal is the
only Republican paper Of the dis
trict that has expressed adversely to
the TRrBUSE's proposition--that
some early action is strongly de
manded. One half of the papers
OF the District endorse the TEm
UNE's plan, four OF five are yet to b.
heard from, Of these some will most
surely agree with the half, and thus
a majority is practically assured.
There is every reason to expect
that the next step in the programme
may be taken by the lst Of Noyem-
Der and great probability that the
matter will be fully arranged before
Christmas. The journal may be
upon to commend-after
Us accomplishment. w. II. b.

The agricultural condition Of the
country is highly favorable, notwith-
standing the unusually irge amount
of soft corn, which, between the
ate spring and early frost, suffered
severely. The corn production Of
The year will be, however, about
600 100000 bushels Fortunately
the soft corn Is confined most en-
trely to the regions which consume
nearly all their own crop, Oats and
barley were never SO abundant as
they are this year, and we have not
had so good a potato crop since rs.
The wheat will be about Ills bush
els per acre, or in the aggregate, be-
tween oo,o00,000 and 42O,0Oo,0oo
bushels. At the south the cotton
crop is not quite up to last year, but
enormous, exceeded only twice in
the whole history Of accomplishing
in this country The crop aggre-
gates 100000 bales. Taking every
thing into account, the productive
returns for 1883 must be set down as
a guarantee against hard times fol
legitimate business.

What grand open ing there is in this region for boys who have 2 mechanical genius, or have fancy for minerals or for mining. How many college boys are there in this State who can tell what kind of native timber will bear the heaviest burdens, or why you take white oak for one part of a wagon and ash for another, or what timber will last longest under water and what out of the water? How many know sandstone from limestone or iron from manganese? How many know how to cut a rafter or a brace without a pattern? How many know which turns the fastest, the top of the wheel or the bottom, as the wagon moves along the grounds How many know how steel is made, and how snake can climb tree2 How many know that a horse gets up before and COW behind and the COW eats grass from her and the horse eats to him How many know that surveyors mark upon tree never gets any higher from the ground, or what tree bears fruit without bloom2

What They May be Expected to Wear
 the Coming Winter
 From the Boston Herald.l
 For oyercoatines this winter kerseys will be popular, made up with laps and raw cages For colors old claret or port wine snaoes' which have not been worn of late, VIII pc very stylish. Fur beaver, ch1nch1lIa, elys1Sns and soft-fnish goods will be worR, some or these goods having been popular for long lime and promising to continue. These will be worn in all colors-black, blue, broWn' old cIaret-and in mixtures. Of these goods nearly one hundred and fifty styles ana col ors are in the sample books. EngLlsn olue pilots and Irish friezes hold their own, W1lIe Meltons will be worn to some extent, put not so much as formerly. AS has been stated kerseys will be very popular, also fancy beavers, especially in olive or brown snsoeS' elaret or port wine colors. Next come the pIain worsted patterns for morning coats, calling coets generally for common WeaK- The tcorkscrew' pattern has been worn TOT a season or tive, and 1t will have great run the coming season, in the country trade es- necialIv. Heavy orders are in already, and the bulk of the country trade is in this pat tern. The very finest thing in worsteds will be A small, almost indistinet pattern, not dl agonal, but much resembling It, in DlacK, blue brown, olive, wine colors and mlxtures: In the sample books there are one hundred Qu9I1t1e8, paBGeruB huO COAOAo Al "S~~~~-a but mostly of the corkscrew pattern
 For trouserings, the best to be worn are English worsteds, in small, neat stripes. The style will demand quite plain goods, and there is no tendency for the coming season toward the ''loud" patterns. There are in- dications of a pronounced change ln the style, which will very likely be exemplified next spring to some extent and blossom out in full flower within year. Indeed, Eng fish swells have been wearing this year very fancy and loud patterns, and it is considered that exceedingly showy plaids may be all the go for the fall of 1884. But this display IS not to be witnessed this fall and winter. For goods that always sell and will be- worn ex- tensively this winter may be mentioned che viots plain, mixed, diagonal and small fig ured fancy goods. No pronounced change will be seen, either in style or pattern or any of the goods worn by gentlemen, and there is nothing that has been worn that IS being positively discarded.
