This shows that Savannah last year
received but a very small per cent. Of
the cotton from the Augusta ami knoN-
VILE territory, although The road Is part
of the Central system, whose interests lie
here. This estimate OF the distribution is
really based upon the cotton movement
when the Augusta aud Knoxville was an
Augusta road. Since it has become q
part Of The Central system the railroad
officials say there is no reason why the
cotton from along It's line should not come

DESCENDANTS OF CONFUClus.

Considerable pulpit and preacher sym.
pathy is manufactured and manifested
throughout the country for the heather
Chinee, because OF efforts being made by
missionaries abroad, and Christian workers
at home, to induce them to abandon their
Pagan practices, destroy their idols and
cling to the cross rs the only means OF
salvation. This is a mere sentimentality,
as is apparent from the recent massacre Of
5000 Christian ,nen. women and children,
in Cochin China. What has all the boosted
efforts of the Church accomplished il,
China? There are many proiessed con.
verts, but how many actual proselytes to
Christianity are there' Judging from the
few to be found in the United States, there
cannot be more than corporal. guard
over in China. Even those who imni
grated to this country in childhood and
since their arrival have been thrown in
close contact with Americans, show no
signs of, or belief in Christianity. They
all adhere to the customs Of lteir native
land; and even those WHO haye protested
Christianity, can BE- found in Chinese
haunts indulging in such vile practices as
prevail in China. They wear the same
costumes and swing their pigtails as grace.

HILL HANDLES THE SILVER CUES
TlON.

Senator Hill. of Colorado IS excellent
authority on the silver question. The Col.
orado Senator recently gave expression on
the silver problem as follows: NO one
= ~ tell We. what the new ratio between
silver and gold should be. Ii we should
increase the weight of silver, and there
should then be a slight advance i'll The
market, which is almost sure to occur,
your coinage would all disappear, as the
bullion would command premium. Ii,
on the other hand silver should further
decline, YOU will still be coming what is
called a debased dollar. One fact every.
body is bound to admit, aud that is that
tine production OF gold has fallen So much
that it is below the actual demands for con.
mands from Asia My belief is that me
silver production, which has declined
slightly, will decline still more. The great
silver mines of the world seem to b. ex.
hausted, and there are no Indications vet
tina, any others will take their places. 1t
is only twelve years since silver com.
'nanded premium over gold, and it will
not be at all surprising ii within ten years
it should do so again. If there was an
immediate danger OF any disparity between
our silver and gold coin, | should favor
some change, but it is perfectly safe to say
that we can continue to coin silver for tine
next fifteen years at the present rate with.
out bringing any depression in the value of
our silver coin. Long before that time
the course which this country should pur.
sue will become perfectly clear"
