Cotton Causerie.

Some old operators scout the idea of
April crop and weather advices being
worth anything as an index of what the
crop is going to be. 1.-The crop" they say,
lis made in July and August. The talk
of fine weather now is rot, the talk OF
q decreased acreage is also rot. Three
weeks in July may settle the whole
thing. Weather is always normal in
April and you always hear reports of a
decreased acreage. But no one should
look TO ra decreased acreage with the
next crop months sac to Size. 1t is nom
sense . The South has sold cotton at &c
to 41ac; it can make a small profit when
it is 51ac to &c. With the next crop 81ac
and this one 91ac to 10c, isn't it human
nature to plant every inch of available
ground with cotton? The real question
is: What is the price at which consump-
ton will be reduced ?"-New York Com

Kinston n c.. May 1.-Two Hebrew
merchants of this town, M. Pearson and
Ben Marks, had fight yesterday-a very
rare occurrence. The trouble grew out
of rivalry in business, and the combat
was fast and furious. The matter is now
in the hands of the mayor.
The rumor that the man Carter, in
Jail at Kenansvlle charged with being
accessory to the murder of Pete Lawson,
in Duplin county about a month ago,
had confessed and implicated Mrs. Law
son, turns out to be without foundation.
Your correspondent wired the sheriff of
Duplin county for the facts and learned
that no confession had yet been made.
1t is believed however, that Carter knows
great deal about the murder and in
teresting developments are expected.
Arrangements are being made to have
Rev. Sam p. Jones, the noted Georgia
evangelist, lecture in Kinston at an early
date.
April was a month of weddings. The
reporter counted twenty five newly mar
ried couples in Kinston during that
month.
