Bishop Turner, a colored Methodist
bishop of Georgia, wants to take 100, 900 or
$50, 900 negroes to Africa. There are very
few people il the South who have any
money but who will assist Bishop Turner
financially in taking that number and ten
times that number out of the South. While
the negroes were good workers in the past,
and those who were born and raised in
slavery are still good workers, the genera
ton now growing up in freedom. having
obtained smattering OF education, think
themselves too good to work and are the
drones of the South. If the bishop will
take that class with him he will be very
welcome TO them.
The vicious legislation on the part of the
billion-dollar congress drove several mil
lions of dollars out of the country in three
or four months. a benignant Providence,
which gave this country magnificent crops.
while it denied them to all other countries,
has started the inflow of gold. Last Satur-
day 800, 600 was drawn from the Bank of
England and sent to the United States. OF
course the Republicans will claim that this
is the result of Republican management.
They claim in fact that the good crops came
because Republicans were in power. and
the one is just as true as the other. II is
the course of trade that is bringing back
the gold that bad legislation drove out.

DUN'S REPORT.
GENERAL PROSPERITY is APP

A Continued Improvement of Trade in the
West and SOuth-People Buying Bet
ter Fabrics-The Money Markets.

New YORK, Sept. 25.-R. G.. Dun &
Co. IS weekly review of trade says:
None of the recent disturbances threatens
to effect the general prosperity which the
enormous crops promise, and the failure of
4 house of extraordinary repute and
strength to sustain the price of
corn is at once proof of general
prosperity and warning that
whoever gets on the wrong side when this
country is growing is liable TO be hurt. Re-
ports from other cities, and particularly
those in the South and West, indicate a
continuance of general improvement in
trad already noticed
At Kansas City trade steadily improves.
At Louisville great improvement is noted
with confidence fully restored. and at Mem
phis increased activity is seen in every
line, though business is Yet below
normal. An Improvement is seen
at Galveston and New Orleans, where cot
ton slightly advanced and rice is steady,
At Savannah, where cotton receipts are
heavy, reports as to the money market are
generally favorable.
Money is easier at Boston and Philadel-
phia. fair supply at Cleveland and Cincin-
natl and for mercantile needs at Chicago
and Milwaukee, easier at Kansas City,
Louisville and Savannah, but very active
at New Orleans. Collections are fairly
good almost everywhere.
The great industries are dong well. There
is distinctly steady sale of wool, giving
proof of consumption equal to last year,
though in dress goods largely desirable fab
RIGS are being sold beyond capacity of many
mills and the better grades of worsteds, all
wool casSimeres and heavy cheviotS are SELL
ing well, with an unprecedented demand
for white tannels, while veneered and
cotton warp goods and the cheaper
f1annels are no longer wanted. II is nota-
BILE evidence of growing prosperity that the
demand thus changes from inferior to bet
ter goods.
In cotton goods the buying is larger than
for years in many lines.
Wheat has advanced l cent, but corn has
fallen 6 cents during the week.
Cotton is 3-16 cents higher with better ex-
ports. but sharp fall of &c has occurred
in coffee.
The fall in stocks on Thursday averaged
$l.S0 per share.
Business failures occurring throughout
the country during the past seven days
number PA as compared with 239 last

Democrats Regret 1t.

President Harrison finds that his friends
in Indiana are very much dissatisfied.
There was SO great demand for offices in
that state that Harrison could not satisfy it
unless he had conferred all the offices i'll
his gift upon Indiana and virtually de-
populated that state. The friends of Judge
Woods, the judge who changed his ruling
to project Blocks of Five Dudley, want him
promoted to the supreme bench or at least
to circuit judgeship, and it is very doubt
full, and Harrison knows it, whether he
could be confirmed or not. As result Of
this condition there is being organized
strong anti-Harrson movement in Indiana
That, however, is a matter of little import,
for if there was no movement in Indiana
against Harrison there is such movement
in the United States against him that his
nomination is impossible, which all the
Democrats ought to regret, because if he
were nominated there would be no doubt
about his defeat. From every section of
the country the news comes of the popu-
larity OF MIR. Blaine inside the Republican
party. Massachusetts, which has always
been opposed to Blaine, is now strongly in
his favor This is also true of Vermont,
Notwithstanding the fact that Secretary
Senator Proctor has been using all his
efforts, and probably some of his money, to
work up Harrison boom in that state.

Tariff to the Front.

In the Ohio campaign Governor Campbell
forced Major Mckinley to discuss the tariff
question. The distinguished Ohio protec-
zionist has been talking free silver and de-
nouncing the idea of free coinage when but
a few years ago, in fact but few
months ago, ne was voting for it.
Major Mckinley had his reasons
for this. A large part Of the Ohio
Democracy are not in favor of free coinage
while ali of them are opposed to the Mckin-
ley bill, and the Republican candidate was
lodging the tariff question to try and cap
ture those members of the Democratic
party who opposed free coinage. Governor
Campbell has forced him to the real issue
of the campaign and the Hon. Roger Q.
Mills, who commenced speaking in Ohio on
Saturday last, intends to press the tariff
question to the front on all occasions.

DENIsoN, GRAYsoN COUNTY. TEX. Sept.
25.-ThiS morning about 5 O'Clock residents
of the north part of this city We're startled
by shrieking cries, and a glance in the di-
rection from whence they came re-
vealed the figure of James Nor
gan rushing madiy along the
street. He was dressed in very scant
night attire, and his appearance and con-
duct bore evidence that he had become a
raving maniac. He was arrested with con-
siderable difficulty and confined in the city
jail from where he will be transferred to
the asylum at Terrell. Tex.
Morgan was formerly trusted employe
of the Missouri. Kansas and Texas railway
in the city, and several months ago lost his
mind and was sent to the asylum.
He was discharged recently and re-
turned home, only to find his
family in destitute circumstances. He en-
deavored to secure employment but failed
and it is supposed this unfortunate state of
affairs was the cause of his insanity.
