The Wilmington Star says:


A short while ago we called
attention to the fact that one of
our Western counties imported
several thousand bushels Of
corn from from the West to sup
ply the home demand for corn,
and The Clinton CAUCASIAN Of
this week informs us that two
mercantile establishments i'll
that town had sold this year
COCO bushels of Western corn
and large quantities OF hay aud
meat to supply the wants of
Sampson county farmers. THE
CAUCASIAN sounds the warning
and says that if this continues
it simply means agricultural
bankruptcy. There must be
reform in this. 1t is barely
possible that here and there a
farmer may be found WHO can
buy his bread and meat from
the West and keep his head a
bove water, but SO out of 100
will go under as sure as fate if
they continue in this course.
The Star agrees with us in
our statement of last week that
for an agricultural people to buy
their supplies from abroad must
result in bankruptcy to those
who do SO. There is no hope
for it to be otherwise and we
trust our farmers will make
their supplies at home. They
can do 1t. More home neces5a-
ries and less'cotton should be
the motto of our farmers.

Why Dom Pedro was Deprived of His
Civil List and Subsidy.

Why Dom Pedro was Deprived of His
Civil List and Subsidy.
WASHINGTON, December 27th.-The Bra
lillian Minister has I1S;eived a cablegram
from Barboss, the Minister of Finance,
dated Rio Janeiro. December 9th, saying
in part that ex-Premier 0uro Preto had
been banished on account Of acts Of con-
spiracy on the part of his followers The
Imperial family, because they changed
their attitude from soquiescence to encour-
agement of the pretensions of reaction,
were deprived OF their civil list and sub
sidy The Emperor, under the advice OF
disastrous councillors, refused subsidiary
aid, because it was an act of revolution,
but accepted the civil list as his right, based
upon law. In view of this denial of the
legitimacy OF the revolution, which has
been sanctioned by the whole country, our
measure cutting oil the civil list and the
subsidy was an act of mere common sense.
These measures have here met with gen.
eral good support. We shall continue to
respect all rights, maintain tribunals, Or
ganize an administration, observe all con-
tracts and keep up the budget, but any at
tempt against public order will be depressed
with implacaole severity. Commerce, ag-
riculture and the working classes call upon
US to assume this attitude. We shall hand
over to the Constitutional Convention the
Republic in tact. Those who believe that
this Convention is called to decide between
the Republic and monarchy are mistaken.
a monarchy is out of the question. The
European press should not be misled by
news-mongers, whose Vaccinations are
here objects either of amusement or deri-
sion. These mistakes of the press foment
here schemes of disturbance, but the oil
lemma now is simply the Republic or an.

An Eastern Horse Market.

We come to an open space crowded with
people and horses, which our host informs
US is the public horse market of Damascus.
Here we see various men riding up and
down on horses which have been COM
mitted to their charge to sell, shouting the
last bid which had been offered them.
They seem to fetch very low prices Sew
eral good horses were sold for less than e10
each. One specially fne-looking animal
is knocked down" for els. But the bust
ness is not finished. A long dispute i'm
mediately ensues between the intending
purchaser and the owner, the former at
tempting to obtain the horse for few
piastres less than the stipulated amount.
There is an innate love of bargaining in
true Oriental. He never can do without
it. In this case the owner seems to feel
pretty sure of obtaining good price for
his horse, even if the present man should
back out. So he remains silent, with an
occasional inconsequent remark, such as
SIT matters not !" "Wallah, whom am | to
argue with thee ?" "Nallah, my horse is
as dust Take it, without money! All of
which expressions are equivalent to cold
negatives, and naturally exasperate the
other man, who is wasting oceans of rhet.
oric in the attempt to induce him to come
round to his own way of thinking. Finally
the latter exclaims, with heart-warming
show of generosity and philanthropy,
"Wallah, are we not brothers? Where
fore all this noise? Is it for money? May
Allah forbid You want one thousand six
hundred piastres? Here is the money.
Take it," and here he presses the bag of
treasure into the other ones hands and
makes as if he were going to turn away.
"Never mind about your horse; l care not
for it. Shall we part enemies because Of
money!" But here the other, who now
has his money secure, runs after him, falls
on his neck, and, kissing him on both
cheeks, assures him that his horse to him
is worthless; that since his brother wishes
for it he must have it-as present. And
then they repair, in company with the
"dallal," or the man who has done the
auctioneering part of selling the horse, to
the Government office close by, when the
affair is registered and legally settled.

Close of Placer County's Fair at the

SAN Francisco, December 27th.-The
citrus exhibition of Placer county, which
has been in progress IN Platt's Hall for ten
days past, closed last evening. The exhi-
bition was q very attractive one, and was
seen by between forty and fifty thousand
visitors. The managers consequently feel
much gratifed. A good part of the exhibit
will be sent TO the Oroville fair, which is 10
open January It'll.
The committee that has had the manage
ment of the exhibition feels pleased at the
results as so far shown in the number of
inquiries about the county and its capabili-
ties.
a good portion of Il oranges, all except
the Washington naYels, will be left where
they are for week or So that casual visit
ors may have opportunity to see the foot
hill products. A fine lot of ripe red rasp-
berries of the Barter variety attracted atten-
ton at the hall to-day. They were grown
on W. R. Strong's place near Penryn, and
are fine specimens of this variety of berry,
although from lack of sunshine they are
not as sweet as they might be. That such
berries as these ripen readily at Christmas
time is a sufficient indication of the salub-
rity of the winter climate of that section.
The altitude of Penryn is 626 feet.

VALUABLE ENIBLEAIs.
The Sultan Makes Costly Presents, but
Has String Attachment.

Has string Attachment.
WASHINGTON, December 27th.-The Ma
tional Museum has been temporarily en-
riched through the kindness Of Mrs. Sam
uel S. Cox, widow Of the popular diplomat
and Democratic statesman. In one of the
cases near the Grant collection are now dis
played beautiful specimens Of the insignia
which accompany the honors conferred by
the Sultan of Turkey. OF these are the
Jewels of the Order of "Mejidich,n be-
slowed upon Cox after he bad resigned his
position as United States Minister TO Tur-
Key. From broad, watered crimson ribbon,
bordered with a narrow stripe of green,
and tied in an elaborate bow at the lower
end, is crescent within which is encased
hve-pointed stars set off by garnets. At
] tached to these are seven pointed stars OF
beautifully worked silver, with a center OF
gold and enamel. On the central golden
plate is the Sultan's autograph engraved
while around the enamel in the margin is
| a Turkish inscription.
Entirely distinct is the decoration in
tended to be worn on the breast. 1t is q
seven pointed star more than three inches
in diameter, beautiful combination Of
gold, silver and enamel. Between each Of
the points of the great star are crescent
stars, also of silver.
Equally interesting anu ueClueuly more
valuable in a strict sense are the decora.
tons along side of these which were pre-.
sented to Cox. They are those belonging
to the order of "Sheffakat," and were con.
ferred by the Sultan Abdul Hamid or
Mrs. Cox, 1t is large crimson and green
enamel star with gold center. on which
| is the Sultan's autograph. 1t depends
| from a broad white ribbon with a red and
green border This star is to be worn on
the breast. There are really two stars
The upper one is of garnet with center
/ boss of green enamel and gold. The back
ground on the lower star is of diamond
with here and there sprays Of green
enamel.
1t was Mrs. Cox's intention TO leave these
decorations in the hands of the museum
authorities, but the Turkish Government
has Tilled otherwise.
1t is customary in polite Mohammedar
circles to demand the return of such expen
sive jewels as this when the person tC
whom they were given dies, and since Mr.
| Cox unfortunately is no more, the Sultar
wants the jewelry, SO that he may be able
to give it with the customary string at
tached to some one else. The one which
was given Mrs. Cox will remain in Mrs
| Coxs possession until she dies, then that
| too, will be returned. For about a month
the decorations will be on exhibition here
