The action of the directors of the
Atlanta Exposition in voting down a
resolution recently made to open the
gates to visitors on Sunday, is not
only received with commentator by
the people of the South. but is at
tracing attention throughout the
country and favorably commented
upon by the Press in every section.
No one thing seems to have placed
the South in such favorable light
before the country as the stand taken
by the directors for the observance
of the Sabbath. The Philadelphia
Telegraph commenting on it, says:
One thing may frankly and truth
fully be said. In no part of this coun
try today is the old-fashioned
American Sunday-a day Of secession
from secular labor, respectful quiet
and worship for all who are so in
clined--so generally observed as in
the South. This fact is noted with
extreme qualification by Northern
NlSlIOrS dlreduE uuudppilN ldulildT
with current practices throughout
this section and the West particular
ly. There is to be no unseemly and
costly contest over opening the
Atlanta Exposition.on the first day
of the week There was feeble effort
in this direction, but it has been
speedily disposed of and in charac
teristic way by the directory, which
unanimously voted to postpone all
consideration of the subject. This
course is taken in defence to local
public sentiment and in accordance
with fundamental american princi-
pies. Atlanta is avery busy city six
days in the week; it is forging head
in every element of material pros
perity, but on'Saturday night it lays
aside the tools OF labor and refrains
from unnecessary trespass upon the
rights of those who toll. In this
respect the new South sets health
full and inspiring example to the
reckless cities OF the West, which
have almost abolished the American
Sunday.

Will Raise Bread Prices.

All that appears now to be lacking
that will give the National Miller's
Association absolute control of the
prices and output of -four is the sign
ing of their agreement, says a Buff
falo, N. Y, telegram, which has been
formulated in detail Aside from the
Northwest, Buffalo holds the key to
the situation, and vigorous efforts
have, it is said, been made to bring
the Buffalo millers into the move.

ton of about 100000 barrels of
flour. Production is to be cut down
about 100000 year, and the trust
will impose 10 cents barrel fine on
all millers who refuse to comply.

Oysters Scarce.

NORFOLK, October S.-Mostly the
oysters coming here to the packers
are from the Rappahannock river,
the rocks in James river, Nansemond
river and Pagan creek hardly yield
ing q profitable days work to the
catchers at any time. Stock is scarce
and inferior in quality, and the
packers only expect relief when the
dredgers get to work on the upper
Chesapeake. The packing business
is not as large this year as last.

of the paraiytic stroke sustained by
him on Monday. September 30th. He
was laid to rest after an imposing
funeral in the family vault y Peters
burg, on Wednesday. A sketch of
him is given in another column. 1t is
a brief statement of the history of his
life without commentsupon the merits
and faults which he possessed-and
in that spirit news of his death has
been received for the most part by
those most disposed to criticise him
while he was alive. He had faults,
but in the presence of death, Vir-
ginians for the most part laying aside
all animosity which they had against
him in the past will prefer to remem
Der the good that there was in him.
His great ability, his love for Virgin
ia, his distinguished services to the
Confederacy no one ouestions-and
they go very far to atone for the
mistakes he made afterwards. Peace
to his ashes.

Mr.. w. S. Landlord writes: I
am still using your Orchilla
Guano for the permanent I'M
provement of my land, and
think it the best and cheapest
fertilizer that can get for that
purpose, as well as for the pro-
duction of the immediate crops
of corn to which it is applied.
I am not an agent for the sale
of your guano, and have, there
fore, no interest in it beyond
any other farmer, but cheerfully
accord to it the need of praise it
so richly merits ranktown.
