The October report of the National
Cotton Exchange fixes the present crop
at 1870, 1855 bales; the largest crop with
two exceptions, 1SsOS1 and 1882 SO,
ever produced. The acreage is placed at
17,714, 400, the largest amount of land
ever planted in cotton, being an area
nearly equal to the entire state of South
Carolina. Yet the south has land enough
adapted to the cultivation of cotton to
raise a crop of hundred million bales.

II is now proposed to provide the
weather bureau with an oceanic annex for
the prediction OF easterly gales. The
scheme contemplates the mooring of a
buoy raft and signal ship some 400 miles
eastward of Sandy Hook, to be connected
by telegraph cable with Nantucket. The
ship is TO be provided with an operator
whose duty will be to warn all points
along the coast of coming gales. 1t may
also serve us an ocean post office, and as q
relief ship to any disabled vessels that
may happen along in its neighborhood.
If the plan be found to work all right, it
is further proposed to establish similar
ocean stations off Newfoundland, Cape
Hatteras and Charleston.

1t is one of the misfortunes Of rich
spectators like Jay Gould that their
motives for an act of apparent generosity
are probably oftener called in question
than not. Consequently, when it is tele-
graphed all over the country that that
gentleman has given 1000 for the aid Of
the sufferers by the Galveston fire, the
Americanism runs through the popular
mind, "what is the, old sharper up &c
now?" And very common answer
is: ''You know the Baltimore u Ohio
Telegraph Company has made itself pop
ular in Texas, and this is one of the old
dodgers sly bids for patronage of the
Western Union" This may be unjust tC
Mr.. Gould and his benevolence to stricken
Galveston may be inspired by the best o.
motives. Anyhow his contribution viii

The Free Trade Conference a, Chicago,
which to the ,eonsternation of high tariff
men numbered many well-known manu-
fact1gers among its delegates, has adopted
Recommendations urging upon Congress
that no countenance be given to any at
tempt to increase protective duties; that
articles which are at the foundation of
great industries should, in the interests of
labor and commerce, be freed from duty,
whether they be crude materials, as
lumber, salt. coal, wool, &c., or
partly manufactured, as chemicals, dye
stuffs, tin plate, &C.; that duties on pro-
ducts from such articles should be so re-
duced that the protection, real or nomi-
nal, to manufacturers shall not be in
creased; that the classification under the
present tariff should be simplifed, and
that mixed duties should be abolished aud
ad valorem duties substituted. The confer
ence speaks out in advocacy of free ships
apd the abolition of restrictive navigation
laws and in opposition to the subsidy
system. We shall now be told by the
high tariff organs and statesmen thai
these manufacturers do not know what i!
good for them, and are perversely blint
not only to their own interests but to th'
interests of the nation.

on. Under the head, 1.-THE Clouds Lift
ing" we are informed that the tanners
are feeling good because they are able,
not to sell their product at profit, but
to get o little nearer cost out of it than
they have been doing. They are repre-

price that will come within five per cent
of making him whole on the trans

to speculate upon the manner in which
the customer with whom he is dealing

leather has advanced and is going to keel
on advancing until the tanners can get a

their less astute contemporaries
are now awakening to realization of Il
fact that they are "left." There is /
