THE COTTON CROP.

The prosperity Of the South is largely de-
pendent each year upon the amount and
quality of its cotton crop, and ii is, there
fore, cause for general congratulation
that the crop produced this year is not only
unusually fine in its general character, but
also exceeds by 26j,0O0 bales the largest
crop that was ever harvested in the South
ern States before or since the late war.
The crop of the present year runs ahead OF
that Of last by 373.032 bales, which signifies a
proportionate addition to the income of the
Southern people during the course of the
last twelve months.
Ii is very interesting TO note in this con-
nection that the South consumed in 1870
i'm the form of manufactured cotton OF
c0arser grades SAC, 1868 bales as against 4sl.-
23j bales in 1889 From this it will be seen
at what rapid rate manufactures of this
kind are being developed in the Southern
states. There arc now 1856 mills in opera
ton in the South, with 40,Sl9 looms and
l,sl9,29l spindles. Some comprehension OF
the rate at which the humber Of these mills
has increased is shown by the fact that in
1880 there were only 1Gi with j6l, $50 spin
dies, and that the increase of spindles in
the past twelve months is equivalent to
nearly one-half OF the entire number
reported in the South at the census of 1880.
ID follows as q cOrrelative fact that the
amount Of cotton shipped to the North for
consumption in the mills of that section has
declined during the present yea in the
most marked way. II is to be hoped that
this falling OFF in the amount of Southern
cotton forwarded TO the Northern mills
will continue for the same reasons to de-
cline until there is at least an equality in
the amount of manufactured cotton goods
Of every grade produced at the South and
that produced at the North. If the rates OF
increase in the number Of Southern mills
and spindes be maintained in the future, il
will not be very many years before the
South will be in position to compete sue
cessfully, both in the quality and the guam
tity Of its manufactured goods, with the
world

Drunkenness In England.

A Parliamentary return, issued yester.
day on the motion Of Mr.. Cavendish Ben.
timex, shows that the total number Of con.
yictions involving drunkenness In England
during last year was l5l ,l25, of which 3,9lg
were for drunkenness on sundays between
1890 L. NJ. and midnight. In London the
total was 20.365, of which l,370 were be-
tween the hours named. Liverpool comes
next. with II, i9l and 7gT respectively; Man
chester, with !i,ls2 and 90; Newcastle,

Politics and Partially.
Wilmington Journal.

When Representative Bynum, OF Indiana,
said that Representative Bayne, Of Penn
sylyania, became responsible for the lies in
the letter o. Manufacturer Campbell 10y
reading it in the House, he was called "a
the bar of the House and censured. Messrs.
Springer, Breckenridge, and Oates said that
the action of the House was strictly parti-
SAN that the attempted humiliation
Of Mr.. Bynum was due 10 his
politics. not to unparliamentary con
duct. If these assertions needed any
proof, the failure TO punish the three Re
publicans-CannOn for the most outrageous
Obscenity ever heard in Congress; Wilson
Of Iowa, and Beckwith of New Jersey, foi
engaging in a ight-wOuld be ample. 1t
was the most disgraceful scene in Congress
since the war, and still the Republicans
have not thought il necessary to call these
men to the bar of the House for reprimand.
1t makes a vast difference with Speaker
Reed whether the disorder is made by Re
publicans or Democrats.

4 Cause for Anxiety.
PHILADELPHIA Record. !

The Republican leaders in Washington
are manifestly solicitous that Secretary
Blaine should be withdrawn from the stumI
in Maine. 1t IS not that they dread the in
nuence Of his reciprocity speeches upon The
election in that State, where he is still 4
great popular fayorite. They fear much
more the effect Of his arguments upon then
tariff programme throughout the Republic
can party. He is completely destroying
with the farmers the familiar pea that the
Chinese tariff is building them up a
Home Market" and that they have no
need to trouble themselves about the miser-
able markets Of the seni-barbarous and
half-staryed people Of the outer world. Il!
this brilliant rhetoric the Secretary IS turn
ing the Republican farmers from these mar
row notions and opened fore item vistas
Of profitable foreign markets under his pol
icy of reciprocal free trade. As to. the ELI
tire practicability of his programme that is
quite another question.

The Count of Paris will have his baggage
entered free when he visits this country on
account of his eminent services to the Union
during the war. But the American who
travels abroad must pay duties upon his re-
turn on goods which he actually took away
with him. This is great country-a great
tariff! Fay TempletOn is hay-
ing trouble with the Treasury department
about her diamonds, seized for unpaid
duties. Fay claims that she took them
abroad with her and ought to be permitted
to bring them back without paying the gov
eminent for the privilege. Oh, foolish Fay,

Census returns. soon to be published, viii
certainly show that there is no such rapldlty
of multiplication Of negro populations OF the
South as was asserted in statistics Of p0pu
lation in 1880. High taxes and heavy pop
ular burdens make the cost Of living enor
nous among the many and the poor, and
Reeds tariff is virtually the prohibition o
marriage. Therefore the women Of the
country are being educated for self-mainte
nance, and that they may fight the battle o.
life on an equality with men, they would bt
armed with the ballot.
But these facts, while they have pro
duced visible and conferred tangible results
have not failed to affect the conduct and
fortunes and numbers of the cOlored as wei
as white people, and if census takers have
| invented negro names and extended the
lists Of negroes for the money each name
paid, it will be- seen that the census books
of 1870 and 1880 alike exaggerated enor
mOusly the growth in numbers of the Degr'
race. The relative multiplication of whites
has been the greater even without refer
ence TO the rapid immigration Of Northern
whites into the South.
