WASHINGTON, D. C.-Bishop H. NJ.
Turner, of Atlanta, was asked here what
incentive the colored nansi- A~s sup
pvrs tfro democratic party in the late
election of that State. He replied that
there was no special incentive as far ms
the Democratic party was concerned. A
large number Of the colorcd people did
vote for the reelection of Governor
Northcn, who had no interest in the
Democratic ticket, and indeed, man,
voted for him alone Governor Northcn
was the first Southern Governor, said the
Bishop, who had opealy spoken out
against lynching negroes, and had dared
to offer reward for that class of inhu
man brutes who were making our coun-
try hiss and byword throughout tho
globe, and inasmuch as the position
taken by tn, Governor had been bene.
ficial Of good results many colored peo
pie felt that their votes were due him
under the circumstances This great
nation is too weak, worthless or mean {,
put down these midnight mobs whc
break jais and murder innocent men b,
hundreds, and if God has put it in tn,
heart of one Christian Democratic Gov
ernor to try to stem the torrent of blood
and slaughter, he shall have my vote"
Bishop Turner says he still favors Az
rican emigration for such of his people
t-ass haze, souls and backbones. He see.
no manhood future here for the negro
The colored people will never be re
spccted until they found nation and
intelligently run the same.

some Of the results shown by vigilaut

A wholesale and highly respected grocer
was tried IN London court few days
ago for selling tartaric acid adulterated
with lead. Tho acid was used In max

manufactured. The prosecution showed
that tho tartaric acid contained .00026

that iu order to get twentieth part Of

Il would be necessary to drink lemonade
every day for six months at the rate of
220 bottles per day. The exporta
added gravely that before twentieth

GOVERNMENT COTTON REPORT.
The Deterioration Least in Texas and
Heaviest in North Carolina.

WASHINGTON. d. C.-The statistcian
of the Department of Agriculture reports
reduction of 81 points in the general
percentage of the condition of cotton,
from 1858 in September to 73 in Octo.
Der. The deterioration is heaviest in
North Carolina, and least in Texas of any
of the States of considerable production.
Georgia has maintained its condition
better than any other Atlantic State.
The percentages are: Virginia II, North
Carolina so, South Carolina 70, Georgia
rs, Florida SO, Alabama so, Mississippi
70, Louisiana II, Texas II, Arkansas "a,
Tennessee rs.

rotting of immature bolls in North Caro-.
lima AMI South Carolina. The crop is
maturing somewhat better in Gct reia,
though excess of mois ure in the South

low condition of Floridl cotton in Sep
tembcr has been further depressed by
heavy and iuccssant RAINFALL which has
delayed P, cking. The low Status of the
Alabama, breadth is the result of wet
weather insufficient cul ivation, dispo.

cotton is very lat, and uppromising from
excessive moisture through the season

encouragement in Texas than in any

kansas are very unprom missing, though
recent favorable wea' her is rapidly

weather has recently succeeded the
heavy rains in Tennessee, and bolls are
beginning to open A late and favorable

They simply encourage the natural pro-
cesses by which the several remedial

oranges, figs, tamarinds, prunes, mul-
berries, dates, nectarines aud plums may
be included; pomegranates, crauberries,
blackberrles, sumach berries, dewber-
ries, raspberries, barberries, ounces,
pears, wild cherries and mcdlars are as
trlnScnt; grapes, peaches, strawberries,
whortlcberties, prickly pears, black cur

pumpkins and melons arc rctrigcrauts;
and lemons, lines aud apples are refrig-

A tunnel, the longest in the world,
has been projected aud begun, practic.
ally, under Simpion, to supersede the
famous road over the mountain con-
structed by Napoleon. The "Route OF
the simpion" is thirty sight miles in
length; the tunnel will be trifls less
than twelve miles aud half. The
wagon road is 6592 feet above sea level,
is twenty five to thirty feet wide, crosses
GIL bridges, aud passes through several
tunnels. 1t takes eight or nine hours to
cross the mountain by the wagon road ;
the tunnel can be traversed in three
