LOUISA COUNTY.
Correspondence ofthe Richmond Dispatch.


VA, October 4.-The irosts
Of Friday and Saturday nights proved very
disastrous To the planters OF our county.
The recent dry weather had rendered the
,bacco rather backward. and a large num-
Der Of our people bad not begun 70 cut
their crops. A still larger number had cut
only partially. Itis estimated by some that
onc-ihird OF the tobacco crop OF the county
i destroyed. This falls peciaily hard at
this lime. Il, the spring grain crops were
not excellent and the corn crop Is very
poor.
Cuckoo, October 4.-Iicavy frosis on
Friday and Saturday nights, 1T and %
nsiant. played havoc with the crop in this
county. A few, only a very few, OF our
farmers had cut all or even the most OF their
crop; The bulk Of them had not secured
more il a. much as one half. while many
had not cut 4 plant. Authentic iniorma-
ton from al sections OF the county make il
evident that, while in some localities the
crop escaped. the destruction has been gen
orally very heavy.

ANNUAL MEETING or THE ASSOCIATION iii
PRESIDENTS REPORT.
lSpecial telegram 10 the Dispatch.

PRESIDENT lhfOkl.
Especial telegram 10 the Dispatch
DANynLE, VA, October 4.-The Dam
vile Tobacco Association held is annual
meeting to-day, and reelected T. J. Talbot
president. with most Of the old officers.
The presidents report for the year shows
aggregate sale, OF 40.3j},94 pounds at an
average price Of S9.4l per hundred. The
report saws fully 100000 pounds OF to-
bacco not handled by the warehouses were
sold in this market, making the grand total
Of more than 100000 pounds. The
average price i lower than last
year, but this is owing to the large
quantity Of common tobacco handled.
A. TO the new crop, the president says the
general opinion is that all the early tobacco
will be OF light body and bright color.
Later paintings will have more body and
make better manufacturing tobacco. He
thinks il Is safe 10 predict a reasonably
good crop, fairly propOrticned between
good manufacturing filters and wrappers
and bright Tugs and cutters. I" III the crop
be largely Of brights, there will still be
equalization, caused by the large amount
OF common and medium filters carried
over by eaf-dealers aud manufacturers
from last years crop. and has given hold
ers the opportunity TO realize good mar
gin on purchases"
Reports from the growing tobacco 90 10
show that about one third OF the crop
is still standing. and this is badly dam
aged by frost and cold.

THE TINTIC MINING SUIT.
Judge Powers Delivers Ills Decision
in the Great Legal and Ex-
pert Fight.

A decision in the famous mining suit
was delivered at Provo last evening,
which gives judgment for the defendant
and disposes OF, SO far as the lower court
is concerned, one of the most important
cases in mining litigation in the history
OF the Territory. The case was brought
before the First District Court by the
Bullion, Beck and Champion Mining
Company against the Eureka Hill Mining
Company and John @. Packard and John
McChrystal; and involves u question OF
trespass, the plaintiff. alleging that the
defendant had extended onto and
taken from the plaintiffs premises
considerable amount OF ore. The in
vestigation has been most thorough one
and every available fact bearing on the
case has been brought to light, so that
the decision, while it OF course will not be
accepted as final by the plaintiff, will un.
doubtedly be regarded as weighty and
ominous. The consideration was not
only the immense quantity OF ore already
taken out of the lode contended for, but
also contemplated the considerable re.
mainder which is still in the disputed
ground. There is little doubt but the
matter will reach the Supreme Court OF
the United States before the case rests,
rs it is understood that "there's millions
| in it"

The Success of .Confuslon.o

The immense success which the Home
Dramatic Club achieved in the perform
ance OF Confusion" New Years night
and the fact that quite Il number were
prevented from witnessing it owing to the
holidays, have induced the club TO place
the piece again on the boards for next
Friday evening and Saturday afternoon.
Confusion" is a comedy possessing all
the brilliancy OF fun which makes the
witnessing OF the play second time quite
desirable, and accounts for the wonderful
run il enjoyed in New York and London.
1t is piece, too, that is happily adapted
to the club, and they make the best OF it

The Good Work of the Democrat

The Ogden Herald Of yesterday con-
tanned long letter from this city written
by the editor OF that sheet. The editor
in question was doubtless in the capital
for the purpose OF getting place in the
Legislature. We are of the opinion that
the great northern editor has q spite
against the "silent partner" referred to-,
because that same partner prosecuted Og-
denis great editor for criminal libel and
changed him from hero and advocate
Of freedom ~ into common convict.
Q. w. II speaks OF the DEMOCRAT in
these terms
The Salt Lake DEMOCRAT Is uniformly con-
sidered a childish sort of blunderbus. AS a
puerile hoax it has been great success ever
since it discovered (?) an outlet to Great Salt
Lake. Its circulation is understood to be
very meager. Few read it and fewer still
admire it. Editorially it constantly reminds
one of school-boy essays 1t is believed
however, that the ostensible editor of this
sheet has silent partner in the person of
nightly self-conceited attorney, whose
quixotic effort to put himself at the head of
n political following under the title of
young Democracy" has filled his little soul
with gall and pusillanimous spleen.
