THE ACREAGE OF COTTON.

Miscalculations respecting the
amount Of last years yield of cotton
were SO wild that reports Of the
acreage under cultivation this year
will be received with hesitation.
Already voluminous statement from
the cotton growing States have been
procured, which indicate average
reduction of about sixteen per cent.
compared with last years
culture. All who are inter-
ested in the trade, manufacturers
excepted, unite in the attempt to
restrict the enterprise Of planters,
on account Of the enormous quanti-
ties of the last crop coming into
sight, which up to the present time
exceeds $500, 900 bales, although
the authorizes usually relied upon
long ago fixed the maximum
figures at 1000, 900 bales. The
hope lie now expressed that the six
teen per cent reduction aforesaid
will be sufficient to restore . lucra-
tive price, so that no permanent
disosfnp nav nvorfako an interest
SO essential to the prosperity of the
Southern States and entire coun-
try. Even q temporary interrupt
ton of cotton culture, 50 general a.

The eyeglasses which pinch the
nose are certainly dangerous. A
CAGE recently occurred in St. louis
of q man who died of cancer Of the
nose, caused by the pressure At his
eyeglasses. He noticed that on
each side Of the nose, where the
spring Of the glasses brought the
clamps against the flesh, pyrs;st-

nothing Of it. A year or So ago
the right side of his nose became
sore, q small spot turned brown.
and in three months he had s we'll

THE RICE TRUST.

"Another county heard from.
lafayette parish wants a rice mill.
Here is the vigorous way in which
the VermilliOn Star put the demand !:
The Rice Trust hiss succeeded in
reducing the price Of rough rice to
such a low limit, that it no longer
pays to ship that cereal to New Or
leans or any other place where the
market is manipulated by this abom-
nation of the nineteenth century.
There is 8 remedy for this evil, and
that is for the rice growers to unite
and put up . rice mill at this point.
A good mill can be put in at
a cost OF about $1,000. which
amount will be saved on the first
crop. Now is the time to move in
this matter, as the crop will soon
be harvested. There is but one
way to fight tho Trusts, and that
is, not to patronize them. The on
~ way to accomplish this Is to erect
independent mills.
In the meantime, the Item learns,
the Rice Mill Trust IL, II slowly,
yet surely carrying out its plans.
Some notifications are reported in
the original project, and the options
taken on some of the mills may not be
availed of. But several Of the best
mills are already practically sold,
and arrangements are in progress to
operate them under the combine"
management next season.
Whether the ultimate effects Of
this Trust scheme on the rice trade
Of this city will be as is now feared,
time only can determine; but it
certainly will cause a serious com
petition If the spirit of opposition
which has been aroused throughout
the rice growing regions crystalizes
into acts, as is now threatened at
several important pOints.-City

TO DANCE OR NOT TO
DANCE?

A petition has been introduced in
the Methodist Convention now 10 ses-
sion in Omaha which aims at . new
departure.
Its purpose is to expungs from
the discipline that section which
pronounces dancing an immoral OF
at least an improper pleasure.
No church took stronger stand on
this subject than the Methodists.
They have frowned upon that limo
cent enjoyment as chief among the
yanities and indicative Of an empty
head aud . frivolous heart.
But the youngsters have come to
the front with overwhelming force
and demanded recognition. The
petition was offered by . reverend
gentleman and seconded by . large
number Of laymen who may posi-
bly, be able to speak from expert
ence on the sinfulness Of this uni
versal pastime.
We desire to be counted on the
side Of the coming generation.
There is no reason why religion
should be either sombre or gloomy.
1t is not heterodox to enjoy = spasm
Of hearty laughter or to let ones
feet slip gayly over the foor in
merry mood. m ~l
II dancing is the worst o3ense
. boy commits the church may well
afford to extend its hand and bid
him to be cheerful rs long - he can,
for the hardships Of life win sober
him quite soon enough.-New York
Herald.
The petition referred to above
was adopted by The Convention,
and hereafter the Methodist Church
Of the North will allow its members
TO dance. Evidently church ideas
are growing more liberal.
