THE UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE.

IHE I UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE.
For good many years there has been
published at the University of North
Carolina a monthly perioGica', conduc-
ted by the members of the Senior Class
and aided by the contributions of the
Faculty, OF Alumni of tle, in1titution
whose interests ran parallel with those of
their alma mater. 1t has had varying
fortunes, ups and dewns of repute and
prosperity, and capriCiGuRHess of CharaC-
ter ard excellenCies, &s naturally to Ee
expected from perennial change Of con
duct. On the whole, ii mas b>en we'll
sustained; and occasionally its career has
been lustrouA. 1t has hen I,rade the
vehicle of much useful l. etUT.cal lore,
and in the days before the war. such
men as David J.. Swain, w. A. Graham,
Francis l.. Hawks did not disdain to
minglH the labnrS of their ripe intellects
with the unilcdgcd esfays of the College
boys. The cne took easy pleasure in the
airing of their opinions; the other took
courage o plume their wings to bolder
flights. Both were benefited; and tho
result has been to bring maturity and
youth into the pleasant relations of
trustfal confidence, and harmonious CO.
operation.
Successors to Swain and Graham of an
ante beiIum period come Battle and
Mansum. And we venture to say that
in voluminous of information and in
interesting facility OF expression, Presi-
dent Battle stands tac;le princeps 1t lis
rare TO find in any writer one who con-
veys so much of value in vein almost
of light pleasantry, as does this gentle
man. His style gives him the ear of tho
public; ard the result is so pleasant and
SO useful, that we hope the CO operation
SO happily engaged in will be developed
and the magazine brought more actively
to the notice of the public.
Let the work be pushed until the
University Magazine becomes an esser-
tial and indispensable part of the liter
ature of North Carolina,

OUR TOBACCO MAFKET.

OUR TOBACCO MARKET.
In conversation with our towns
man, Capt. H. c. France, cne of the
best judges Of tobacco, and sue
cessful buyer and handler Of the
weeI, We learned facts concerning
the present crop and of our market.
Capt. +. says that the quality of
tobacco now coming in is tar supe
rior to tha! offered previous to the
holidays. This is shown in the
excellent prices now being given.
He is satisfied from what he has
seen and ascertained that the crop,
specially o. good tobacco, will be
much shorter this season than was
anticipated some months ago. He
gratitied Us by saying that the
prices on this market were much
better, on an average, thai any
other market III this or all the
States could show. The planters
are sending in freely now, but the
demand keeps ahead of the supply.

THE Corn CROP.

HE CORN CROP.
The State Commissioner Of Agricu!
ture, Mr.. John Robinson, in the last issCe
of " The Bulletin advises the farmers
of North Carolina to guard well their
corn crop, ~ the statistics issued by the
department at Washington City show
the crop is two million bushels short of
last year and shorter than any crop since
1881. In view of this he thinks the price
will necessari Ue higher than at
present.
1t is well for those who have good
supply of corn, as well as those who have
not, to put in a good quantity of oats and
other grain and forage in order that they
