Our Tobacco Interests.
ROCKY Mount Argonaut.l

The Southern Tobacco Journal, of
Winston, after careful review of the
situation, says:
We can safely look for an average
crop for Raleigh, Wilson, Rocky
Mount, Louisburg and Granville, with
conditions favorable for a very fine
one.
Durham reports falling off in
acreage of 80 per cent, Warrenton IS
per cent, Oxford 20 per cent, Bur-
lington 40 per cent. and Henderson
a considerable reduction. In this the
cold golden belt," the recent rains
have had most helpful effect on the
plants and all our correspondents draw
the conclusion that with further favor
able seasons the crop will be an ex-
cellent one.
1t also says that the Winston acre
age has been cut fully one-fourth; a
reduced acreage is also reported from
Asheville with bright prospects ahead
for the new crop. In Virginia Dan
Vile reports but 10 per cent, and
Lynchburg 40 per cent.
This goes to prove that this years
crop will be very small one except
the "golden belt" of the East which
is good news for our tobacco growers.
The crop in this locality is one of
the most promising we have ever seen.
We have been travelling very exten-
sively through Nash county lately and
can safely assert from our own obser-
vation that the crop so far is a grand
one and that if nothing occurs be-
tween now and curing time to damage
it our tobacco farmers will be more
prosperous this year than they ever
were before.

you cannot get up courage to do much
of this in the hot season, at least make
good resolutions, to be vigorously
carried out in the fall and spring sea-
sons and the good winter days. l
might go on and write columns about
the advantage of the exercise, of the
sunshine, the influence upon mind and
body and soul (for thus you may COM
mune with Natures Cod but / wish
to say something else in regard to the
advantages of country life and town
life. Do not conclude from what l
have said thus far that think all the
advantages are on the side of country
life. l have not space to speak Of the
relative material conveniences of town
and country life. fl had, I would,
perhaps, have to give the town the
advantage here. But, as said in the
beginning, l am, in the main, con-
fining myself to the influence on mind
and manners and even here it is not
hard for me to say something in favor
of town life. Gregariousness sharpens
the wits and develops some Of the
lighter faculties of the mind. Those
who are much in society have greater
conversational powers are quicker at
repartee. A certain amount of grega-
riousness is almost essential to civility.
Says Tennyson "Ground in your So
cial mills, we rub each others angles
down." Courtly manners are best
learned at court, not in the study or
in the country. Town life, then,
should be productive of better manners
than rural life, and this would unques
tionably but for one evil effect which
gregariousness is apt to have upon
manners. Thus: People living in
town, are in danger of slavishly imi-
tating other pelple, adopting the same
phrases, holding the same opinions,
using the same way OF shaking hands,
etc =; and thus their manners may be-
come vulgar, commonplace. Now
the essence of good breeding is SIM
plicity, just as the essence of vulgarity
is want of simplicity. TO be vulgar,
is to be continually disturbed on &C
count of other people, to truckle to
them, to adopt their cant phrases, to
initiate their tone and manners, to
take up their ideas, to carry on the
same kind of small chat that they in
dulge in. Thus we can see how imi-
tativeness, commonplaceness is pro-
duct of town life, and how there may
be better chance for growth Of SIM
plicity, naturalness, of manners in the
country. And SO, though, if it were
not for the tendency we have been
alluding to, we would give the advan-
tage to town life in regard to influence
on manners, yet, as it is, we do not
know to which we should give it for
while rusticity may be natural pro-
duct of country life, vulgarity, imi-
tativeness, is just as natural product
of town life. We do not wish to un-
derestimate the social instinct and
would ascribe this other advantage to
town life, that it fosters sympathy and
pity and charity. Gregariousness
tends to make the whole world kin.

"Old Glory" Always Wins.
Felicity (Ohio) Times !

The greatest industrial strike known
in the history of this country is practi-
cally over, and as was easy enough,
and safe enough, to predict, from its
very inception, "Old Glory" wins as
she will always win while there are
patriots left. True there is here and
there, widely dispersed, however, NUT
terings and stubborn, scowling resis-
tance to law; but the backbone and
the spinal column OF the great move
ment is completely and incurably
broken. Distinguished " strike mas
ters' are either in Jail or awaiting, for
once, at least, the swift processes of
the law that will surely land them
there. Walking delegates" and pro-
fessional "agitators' have been effect
ually silenced and have skunk away to
commiserate with more pronunced
anarchists and enemies of law and
good government.
Now that business is resuming its
normal condition, the cost of the great
insurrection must needs be counted.
That its aggregate will be appalling
no one can gainsay. High authorities
place it at sIo,ooo,ooo, not taking
at all into account the loss OF wages
sustained by the strikers but for the
direct loss resulting from the outright
destruction of property and for the
expenses of the courts and the military
arm of the government in protecting
life and property. Thousands OF work
men were forced to despoil their say
ings from many years of honest toll,
that themselves and families might
not starve while they were engaged in
futile attempt to glcrity and can
onize Debs, ct al.
There is some satisfaction in realiz-
ing that Illinois, Chicago and Cook
county will have to plank down enor-
nous sums to pay for property de-
stroyed This is one of the fees they
pay in exchange for Altgeld and Hop
kins, whose like the country at least,
does not care to see again. Had a
Matthews or a Mckinley been Illinois
Chief Executive, instead of the miser-
able Altgeld, the crisis would have
been met and passed without resort to
the Chief Executive of the general
government.
But it was not so. Yet the man for
the hour and the occasion was in the
right place and he spoke in no uncer.
tain sound. All the civilized world
heard his patriotic voice, and with one
mighty, patriotic stroke, he emblazoned
his name alongside of Jackson and
Lincoln and Grant and innumerable
patriots of high and humble station
who were and are for their country
first, last and all the time.

"Better the nimble sixpence than

spoke this proverb had a level head.
The greatest need of the hour is not
more money, but active money. One
dollar in active circulation is better
than hundred locked up in the
miser's chest. When the fields are
parching, the remedy is not more
water in the ocean, but better circu-
lation-the sun must draw it up and
let it down as rain. The way to keep
money in circulation is to circulate it.
Don't hide it away. If you owe it pay
it; it you owe nobody and don't want
to buy anything, the bank Will circu-
late it for you. Cromwell melted the
silver statues of the apostles and coined
them into money, saying he wanted
them to 60 about doing good like
their Master. Turn loose your money.
If you are afraid to invest it, the banks
will pay you interest on it.-Wedsfers $

ELECTRIC FISH.

Living Galvanic Batteries and Theiu
 Anatomical Peculiarities.
 Electric fish have always been plenti- full in the Nile. The ancient Egypt ians were familiar with the capacity of these fish to communicate a shock to their captors. although, of course, the nature of the shock was not under. stood. In picture in bas-relief from the Metropolis at Memphis, dating pre- sumablv three thousand years E. C., we see the Pharaoh of the day engaged in watching the sport of spearing hippopotamuses, while a solitary fish, erman in small boat is represented in the act of catching an electric shad. Galen, too 600 A. D.. mentions the electric rayfsh, the action of which he compares to a magnet; and for cen. turies the Abyssinians have used the electric eel as a remedy for diseases of the nerves. There are three species of electric fish now known: The electric shad, the electric eel and the torpedo or electric rayfish. The electric shad is from twelve to twenty inches long, and is found in the Nile and the Sene- gal. According to Brehm, the electric organ of the shad consists of tissue. resembling the fatty tissue, between the skin and the muscles, over the whole body. This tissue consists of six or more membranes superimposed one upon the other, with space between them for gelatinous mass furnished with a peculiar arterial and venous system, and with a very much branched nerve. On being touched with the hand, the electric shad gives shocks of varying strength. The utilization of its electric energy is absolutely under its own control.
 The electric eel, first described by Humboldt. is capable of communicate ing the most powerful shock. It some- times reaches a length of six or seven feet and weight of thirty or forty pounds. The skin, which is olive-green above and orange-red below, is covered with slime, which, as Volta showed, conducts electricity twenty to thirty times better than water.
 The electric organ of the electric ray occupies the same space between the head, the gills and the pectoral fins. It consists of small cells. close together like the cells of a honey- comb, separated by cross-mem braneous walls and permeated by nerves. It's shock is materially weaker than that of the electric eel, but nevertheless quite painful. Literary Digest.

IT is evident from the press reports of the international athletic contest between Yale and Oxford that the rep resentatives of the American college were not pleased with their reception by the British crowds. In fact. we gather from perusal of the details that the vulgar Britishers brutallv cheered the English winners and still more brutally groaned at the Ameri- can vanquished. Yea. more. they even made such disrespectful remarks as shut up, you idiots" in reply to the intelligent and all-absorbing Yale col lege yell.
