Contains remarkable critique upon the
playing Of the great Chopin pianist, De
Pachmann, from which we extract the fol-
lowing:
Certain excellences prevail in all De
Pachmann's playing. he brings the best
possible tone, whether loud or soft, out of
the instr ument; and that rebounds greatly
to the merit of the ChicksrIng Grand Piano,
OF which he played upon an admirable
specimen. Pachmann's little rhapsodical

A burning chimney at the southeast
corner of Barnard and South Broad streets
yesterday afternoon at 8 o'clock created
considerable excitement, and attracted
large crowd. The streets ia the vicinity
were filled with smoke, and people
thought big FIRE was In
progress. A policeman notified the iremep
ut headquarters, aud several were dis

succeeded in extinguishing the fire in about
fifteen minutes. At one time there was a

the city authorities did not assess either 81.

The recent decision, however, IN which

In reversing its own decisions, entirely
changes the status of affairs, and tine
ehurcass and charitable institutions men
toned will in all likelihood have 20 bear

streets
Under the new decision, when Bull street.
is paved from Stats to Liberty, the county
will have 70 pay pro rata for the improve

the other property owners on the street.
City Attorney Adams was present in the
supreme court when the first decision WAS
rendered, and it was quite surprise to him,
as he felt satisfied IL was wrong uader the
law. Only few days ago he was
speaking 10 a gentleman IN Savannah
on this very subject, and remarked
that, although the supreme court had
decided that churches were exempt, he was
sure 1t was wrong which which eventu-
ally would have TO be righted. Il is rather
a remarkable condolences that within day
or two thereafter a decision should be
handed down exactly in accord with At.
torney Adams expressed views.

Friday night on a mud-bank between Fort

man was found yesterday morning about
$3.50 o'clock by Daniel z. Duncan, a range
light keeper.
The body was In cramped position, as if
In life the man was trying to keep warm,
when death claimed him for victim. His
countenence wore placid expression, and
death must have come easy.
Duncan came up TO the city and notified
Coroner Dixon. who. after investigating the
case, considered an inquest unnecessary and
took the body to his undertaking establish
ment, where twiil be kept subject to the
order Of his two sons, who are in Augusta.
Mr.. Dawson was between 65 and 70 years
old. He has been farming for several years
on Wilmington Island. and came to the city
Friday morniag for provisions ana guano.
He started back about o'clock in the Alter

became numb from tine cold and he lost the
oars, after which the boat drifted upon the
mud bank, where it was found Dy the light

DIED ON THE RIGGING.

Terrible Fate Of the C@sw o9 the
schooner Wrecked of Tgbse.
There are no further tidings Of the miss.
sing crew of the unknown schooner which
was wrecked or tho Tybee north breaker
Thursday.
The vessels two masts, with the flag union
down, flying ut the masthead, stand out
above the water like grim seatinels, and
are all that indicate the location of the
wreck
1t is now believed that the crew, when
they found that there was no hope fer the
vessel, topk to the rigging after setting the
signals OF distress. and finally persisted from
exposure, falling from the rigging into the
water. The night was cold, and the crew
must have been In the rigging for long
time, as tho gale lasted several hours. They
could not have been rescued even IL there
had been a life>saving station on the island.
1t is pretty well settled among the pilot!
that the wrecked vessel is the Robert Nc
Carrel. There is no news OF that yesse
after she left Coesaw.

The receipts Of both Savannah and
Charleston show large decrease from last
years crop, which itself was considered a
small one, the crop Of the previous year,
l5SS-'S9, being over 100000 bushels. The
louisiana crop is reported to be somewhat
larger than last year.
The acreage in Georgia and Carolina this
season was about the same as for the pre-
vious season. A number Of causes con-
tributed to bring about the small yield.
Cold and unfavorable weather late in the
spring, drought during the summer,
and heavy rains and frsshsts last fail, pre-
vented the harvesting of the crop in the
proper time. This latter cause contributed
more than anything else to cut down the
yield. The crop was evidently a fair one,
but not an unusually large one.
The continued rains prevented the har-
vesting Of the rice and compelled the
planters to allow it to stand in the fields
until it became overripe and the rice shelled
out on the ground. This was in many In
stances an extremely heavy loss. one planter
who had calculated with good reason upon
yield Of $1,000 bushels harvesting only
1900 bushels.
The quality OF the rice received was very
far, and good prices were received for the
crop. Rice Is raised In Georgia in the coast
counties, and along the Satilla, the Alta
hi0tt&g bu0 OSusCueS du0 bno OdVBuu6n
rivers, upon land which, from being con.
stantly flooded, Is unfit for tho cultivation
OF any other crop. If these low lands
could be used for cotton or corn
there would probably be lass rice raised
than at present. Some upland rice is raised.
but the crop was almost total failure this
season on account Of drought
Nearly all the RICE raised in Georgia is
marketed In Savannah. Some rice was sent
from Georgia to Charleston, where advances
had been made upon It. Very little Caro-
lima rice comes to Savannah.
The demand for Georgia and Carolina
rice Is very good, and there is no diRiculty
in disposing Of the crop. Some rice Is
brought here every year from New York to
supply the local demand. and it has been
found necessary In case OF very short
crop to import large quantity Of rice to
supply the trade.
Rice planting. which was once one Of the
most profitable industries Ia this section,
has not prospcrsd to any groat extent since
the war, and the acreage has gradually de-
creased. The acreage Of 1890 was fully as
large as that Of 1889, and it is
probable that the acreage will be
about the same this year. With a good
season the crop should be about 600, 900
bushels, and with fair prices this would
compensate the planters for their losses dur
nR the last two years.
