The Weather and the Crops.

The weather-crop bulletin of the signal Office
says: The week ending September IA was
warmer than usual over the corn and cotton
regions and generally on the Atlantic coast.
There was less than the usual amount of rain
during the week generally throughout the
principal agricultural districts, including the
cotton and corn regions. An excess of rainfall
occurred on the Atlantic coast from Massachu-
sets southwark to North Carolina The
weather during the week was especially favor
able throughout the corn belt Cutting of corn
is in progress and large percentage Of an ex-
cellent corn crop is now safe from FROST Re-
cent rains placed the ground in favorable
condition for blowing in the states of the Mis-
sissippi valley, but fall farm work is DELAYED in
Michigan, Ohio and Indiana, owing to the alb
sence of rain. The prospects Of the cotton
crop have been improved by the favorable
weather during the week. In New York Penn
sylvania and Virginia crops were improved by
favorable weather, bur the high winds were un-
favorable for seeding. In these states the corn
crop is reported as large, an excellent tobacco
crop In Pennsylvania has been secured, and the
hop crop in New York ID safe and in good
order.

TO BUILD MORE OCEAN RACERS.
Two Ships to be Constructed to Beat
the City OF Paris.

Liverpool dispatch to the New York Sun
says: 1t has been definitely determined by the
Cunard company to build two new ocean racers
next year. The success of the City of Paris of
the Inman line In breaking the record pre-
viously held by the Cunarder Etruria has, in
the minds OF the managers Of the Cunard line,
made such step necessary.
The precise dimension of the new ships have
not yet been determined, but they win be
monssrous twin-screw ships, built to beat the
record-possibly with an eye to making four
day record. The superiority Of twin-screw
ships in rightly. hardness, speed and economy
has been sufficiently demonstrated by the three
twin-screw ships now in the Liverpool trade,
and the Cunard people do not mean to expert.

STANLEY AND EMIN BEY.
History of Two Men whose Fate Interests
p the World.
from the Baltimore Sun.

EIOUl GuC od1Glu1OAC SulA.
The recent reported capture of Emin
Bey and Henry NJ. Stanley by the
Mahdt's forces, followed since by what
seems to be an authoritative contradic-
tion of the reported capture, renders
the history of these men peculiarly
interesting at the present time. The
American public feels more interest in
the fate of Stanley than in that of
Emin, since be has been SO intimately
connected with this country and is,
indeed, a citizen of the United States.
There is something of mystery about
Stanley's origin. 1t is commonly said
that he was born in Denbigh, Wales,
and placed in poor house at 8 years
old, and that he remained there until
he was 13, and picked up education
enough to enable him to teach school;
that at Is he sailed as cabin boy to
New Orleans, and was employed there
by merchant, who gave him his own
name, Stanley, in place of his original
one of John Rowlands. But it is also
reported that he was born in New
York, and that his mother was living
in that city dozen years ago. He was
in the Confederate army, and being
taken prisoner, entered the Federal
service and became an ensign on an
ironclad. After the war he became
attached to the New York Herald as
special correspondent and in that ca
pacity witnessed the Abyssinian war,
the Carlist rising in Spain and other
notable campaigns. In 1859 the Herald
commissioned him to find Livingstone,
who had not been heard from for some
years, and he organized an expedition
at Zanzibar, 1872 strong, and found the
Scotch explorer at Ujiji in the autum
of 1871. Having furnished DR.. Living
stone with supplies he returned to
England in July, 1872, and was received
Win ulSu uouOES. --. --.. d.
1874 he started as the agent of the
Herald and the London Telegraph on
his celebrated exploration Of Central
Africa, in which he crossed the Dark
Continent, following the Congo to the
Atlantic. Afterward returning there
he spent three years in the employ of
King Leopold of Belgium, dotting the
course of the great river with CONNER
cial stations for 1000 miles f.om the
coast, and founding the Free State of
the Congo, which succeeded the African
International Association, and was re-
cognized as sovereignty by the Berlin
conference of1Ss4. Returning, he made

pecially forbidden by one Of the highest
Courts in the country, would place
South Carolina in the unenviable posi-
ton of opposing her sovereignty to the
determination of the possible rights Of
a citizen by the Courts of the country,

SOME ADDITIONAL REASONS.
"Again, it is serious question
whether the bill accepting this bequest
