GREENSBORO.
Outlook for the General Crops Southern
Education Club.


GREENSBORO, y. {. May special.
The various vicissitudes through which the
present growing crop passed in the early
spring, are now beginning 10 show some
thing Of the result. Reports from the Pied
mont counties. Of GuifOrd. Rockingham.
Alamance, Caswell. stokes, and Forsyth,
are in effect that wheat in those counties
has been much damaged by the insect and
by frost and the yield is certain to be much
below the average. The fruit returns are
even worse. Instead Of the many thousands
of dollars income on cherries. not a pack
age has been shipped. The scattering
peaches that were not killed outright We're
80 damaged by the late frost that they ore
now falling OIL, and the crop will be total
failure. The same is substantially true
with apples. The only thing left to supple
ment this loss will be a big blackberry bar
vest. which at this time is very hopeful.
The backsct 10 the tobacco interest by a
scarcity of plants and the rayages of insects
hrs not, and will not he overcome. Oats
are only medium in quality-yield will be
much below the average. Corn promises
well. and farmers are making most Of the
season 10 meet a deficit in other things. I'm
the Eastern counties, ether Influences have
made war on the coming crop. Early
planted corn, after surviving the frost has
been destroyed by birds and cut-worms.
successful trucking is confined to isolated
sections. Fruit is total failure. BY some
strange fatality not explained. the streams
in various quarters are filled with dead
fish.
The steamer Washington Of Leachville,
that has been running between MOrehead
and New Berne, and which sank some time
ago, has been raised, iloatcd. and thoroughly
Oyerhauled and put upon the route again.
The executive committee of the southern
Educational club had "a meeting here last
week. They decided to recommend a vigo-
rous campaign at an early date, looking to
the doubling Of the states appropriation
for public schools. 1t was considered that
the failure of the Blair bill makes a more
liberal policy necessary. 1t is intended 10
unite all teachers and educators upon this
project at the coming election. The educa-
tional sentiment is wide awake.
\ proposition comes from parties in
neighbOring state 10 remove 10 this place

Mr. Edward VI. Alfriend's adaptation of
lIowelPs novel, "a Foregone Conclasion,v
was presented for the iirst time at the
Mozart Academy last night before, despite
the rainy weather, a good audience. The
company was from the Madison Square
Theatre Of New York. Mr.. Sidney Booklet
assumed the leading role Of the Priest very
cleyerly. There we're repeated recalls. and
the audience seemed 10 enjoy ihe perform
ance very much.
The play is in five acts, and was produced
under the personal supervision OF the au-
thor. The scenes We're all foreign, tho first
act opening in the Office Of the American
Consul in Venice. The lines Of the play
show how closely the novel has been fol-
lowed by Mr.. Alfrend in his work, except
here and there where an effect or climax
has been introduced, giving strong dra-
matte finish to an act or scene.
Mr.. Alfriend was called before the cur
tain after the third act and made neat
little speech.
The play will be repeated tonight, and
II is believed before full house.

THE NORTHERN PRESBYTERlANS.
Yesterdays Session Devoted Mainly to
Hearing Reports.

SARATOGA ,May26. session ofthe
Presbyterian General Assembly this morn
ing was devoted to hearing committee re-
ports. The reports were adopted in order
without debate until the report Of the COM
mittee OF unemployed ministers and vacant
churches was reached. The report recon-
mends the organization of special bureau
OF information, or intelligence office 10 put
the unemployed ministers into communica-
ton with the vacant churches.
After long debate which was partici-
pated in by Drs. johnson, Darling, White
and others, the matter was referred 10 the
Presbyteries and will come up in the assem-
bly, Of 1891.
At the afternoon session the report Of the
committee on the freedmen as to allowing
colOred Presbyteries 10 appeal directly to
the boards, was against the request. The
report was taken up.
Dr. Booth opposed discrimination, and
thought one Presbytery was as good as
another. To place the colored Presoyteries
i'm "A separate category was unfair, and
while il was done, the manhood OF the coll
ored people was impugned. and they could
not feel at home In the Presbyterian Church.
He moved that the request be granted.
The vote was taken on DR.. Booths amend
ment. and the call Of division settled IL In
The affirmative. The vote stood l50 TO rs,
aud taken amid considerable exoitementl
