HutchinsOn's Island.

Mr.. Charles ]. Graham has a new enter
prise in. farming on Hutchinson's Island
He has about 200 acres planted in corn
which is doing we'll and promises to give
a good yield. About 400 acres of ground
have been planted in oats and the crop
has turned out very successful. Five fiat
loads have been brought to the city, and
disposed of through Fawcett Bros. 1t is
cut just before the grain is ripe, and al
lowed to dry. When dry it is put in bales,
grain and straw together and sold for for
age. 1t is said to be superior to hay, as
there is more nutriment in it. There has
been a ready sale for all that has been
brought to market, and a steady demand
for more. 1t has been used to feed horses
in the fire department, and found to be
excellent forage. It is also sold through the
state. Mr.. Graham employs about 30 head
of stock on his farm and uses all of the
fastest improved labor saving machinery
in the production of his crops.

NEXT SEASONS ADJUSTMENTS.
The Music Culture Clubs Concert
Course.

The five concerts proposed for the COM
ing season by the Music Culture Club, as
outlined in last Sundays Morning News,
will bring TO Savannah the finest and best
class of music ever heard here, and as
fine as is heard anywhere in this country.
Whist in New York all of the artists
are heard during a season, on no one
night are such a number and variety of
them heard together as will be heard
here, and in nine other southern cities
during the season.
The prices charged for the season tick
cts bring them within reach of every one,
and are the same as the usual theater
prices. Such concerts in New York would
cost from $3.50 to $3.50 per seat, whereas
through the medium of the Music Gull
ture Club they will be given here at 81
per seat for the best seats. No tickets
will be sold at the door, and, therefore,
only holders of season tickets will be
able to hear the concerts.
1t is seldom that a chance is given to
people in this part of the country of
hearing Nordica Linde, Rosenthal, Jo-
seffy Urso and Powell. A good house
greeted Henry Irving last season at s.
why the full subscription at 81 a seat
should not be taken to hear such cele-
britieS as these, whose fame is equally
as great as Irvings. Besides giving pleas
ure in hearing such music, the concerts
WILL at the same time, give all young
people studying music examples Of the
highest attainment and a model to imi-
tate in every line.
An operate manager has engaged Prof
Spencer NJ. White to drill chorus of fir
ty voices for grand opera, to be given in
this city in December. The solo parts
will be taken by four of Americas great

nav YORK sToCK MARKET.

New York, Oct. 6.-The speculation
in stocks to-day was of the scantiest
proportions and the movement from
more than one point of view appeared
to indicate that the bears were at
tempting to force prices down with
considerable care as to extending their
outstanding contracts. One sample
of bear strategy was the circulation of
a report that a leading stock commits
sion house had refused to carry stocks
or margin over the next thirty days,
but the report was quickly denied by a
member of the firm.
The firmness of some of the high
priced shares excited comment. To-
bacco in particular advanced two per
cent to 671b. The list as whole sag
ged in the afternoon, but the losses
did not exceed fractions except IN
Manhattan, which sold off 1a4 and To-
bacco IA per cent from the respective
high points. The closing was weak at
general fractional net declines.
Railroad bonds were fairly active,
