Yesterday the United States Secretary of Agricuiture telegraphed to Wea:her and Crop “fficial Marbury, at this place, to go out to the Jackson firm and make « thorcugh and exhaustive examiation cf the plant, and then report to the yoyernment offizial at Waskirgtcn. Mr. Marbury at once wens out tc the farm near the barracks, where the wonderful cotton is growing, and through the kindness of Mr. Jackson was enabled to go through tbe six acres of magnificent cotton. He spent quite a while at the place and looked over all the field. Aiter making his _ examination he was allowed to bring some of the cetton to town with him to include with his report.? Mr. Marbury was entusiastic over the limbless cotton. He said that it was the finest crop of cotton he had ever seen. He said that some of the cotton was so tall thatit could hardly be reached with an umbrella. The plant is thickly stadded all the way up with large boile, and the lowest ‘esii— mate is that the six acres will yield four bales to the acre, The weather official will make a -yery full report on the condition and _ therprospects of the cotton, and will enter: into its probable commercial oo: He will give as full and com- "plete a ‘& report on the subject as could ‘gov t will then be in a te au a” vit. may consider Ls a 7 ae e par iy ded hg ji ; ely tlew variety of eH red, and when the report is able cotton isnot a su surprise, It | fa » &D grown in this country. The govern 3 ‘pont will probably buy up large quan— tities of the seed and distribute them lamong the agricultural classess, 80 48 to insure & wide distribution and a spread of the new variety. — The seed retail at $200 per Lushel, and the present owners of the six ecres at Jackson’s farm have been oftered $25,000 for the product of the field. The cotton does not have a limb on the slalk, and has many advantages no‘ ‘p-s-essed by other vuictie® Mr. Marbury will file his 1eport in a few days, anc the government will probably take early action in order to secure tre seed that is now being grown,—Atlanta Constitution. LETT OT History of the Musket. While the introduction of the porteble fire arms into Europe is of comparatively recent date, their use was frequent among the Mohammedans of Eastern Asia at a very early period. Lt. Bruc- yuiere, who made a journey to Jerusalem in the middle of the fifteenth century, and who travel- ed'extensively in the East, men- tions the firing of small harque- buses at the great festivities in Damascus. The first use made of musket in Europe was atthe sicge Rnege, in 1591, by the Spanish soldiers. These arms were so extremel: heavy that they could not be used without a rest. They were proviced with matchlocks, and were efiective at a considerable distance. Whi:e on tke march the soldiers themselves carried only the ammanition and the rests, and boys, bearing the muskets, followed after, like caddies on a golf course. Loading these cumbersome arms was asiow opeation. They were clumsy and axkward to handle, the bail aud pewder were cared separately, and the prep- aration and adjustment of the match took a jong time. Befoze long, however,,1mprove- ments began to be made. The guns became lighter in construc- tion and the soldiers carried their ammunition in broad shoulder belts cul!ed baudeliers, to which were suspended a number of little wooden cases, Jeach ot which held a charge of powder. Apcuch,in which the bultets were carried loose, and a priming horn hung at the sides of the soldier. As late as the time of Charles |. muskets with rests were still in use, and it was not until the beginning of the eighteenth cen- tury tuat firelocks were success- fullv employed.—Harrver’s Round Table. ‘ earnest A MOTTA POSE EE A Negro Postmaster. The people of Fair Bluff are natur- ally enough very indigrant av the outrage that has been perpetrated upon them in the appointment. of a negro postmaster at that place. A News representative happened in Fair Blufi last Friday. The newly appointed posimaster went down there on that ufternoon’s trair. As soon as it was known that he had arrived quite a_ stir was created and he (the appointee, and uot the’ News representative), vas hung in effigy in front of the post office that mght, O. H, Lennon, the ap- pointee to this office, so far as wel know, is a negro of fair intelligence and character, but he need not be surprised to know that the people of Far Bluff will not easily submit to having their postoffice held and con- ducted by a negro who has to be imported 30 miles tor the purpose. While it is natural enough that their indignation should turn, upon the appointee himself, we are willing to say in justice to him that he has done an ninety aine negroes out would do if they had the opportunity: They are out for stuff, ’ . ge ben take i Op that comes their way. And are we consist— ent when we. blame them for i? Ought we not rather to place the blame where it properly belongs, on their white allies who vote with them ana make their ‘ t 3 of public offices with them for tucir own aggrandize- ment ?—Columbus News. Aycock Reappsinted. The appeintmess of United States Attorney for the Eastern District of North Carolina goes over indetinitely. The Washingiuu correepondent of the Richmun| Dispatch says: The President today reappointea Mr. Ay— cock, the Democratic incumbeni, Stubborn, and apparently successful, opposition will be maje against Mr. Cook's appointment, notwithstandin ys Senator Pritchard’s ennorsement. Assisiaut Attorney Gensral Boyd, it is understood, is opposing Mr. Cook’s uppointment, and the postponement of action and the ad interim appointinent of District Atiorney Aycock is in deterence to bis wishes. A voluminous record as been filed against Covk, and the provabilities are that no change will be made in the office until atter Congress meets, iu December. A prominent Republican official says that Cook’s sppointinent, under the circumstances, is almost an impossibil- ity. ‘be Attorney General, st is said, sustains Colonel Boyd in his opposition to Cook. Mr, Aycock bas made a fine record us Disurict Atiorney. re Baby’s Crib Mate Was a Snake. A special from Williams,ort. Pa., says: A 3 year old child of Mrs. Jvames Cross, who resides in the Beech Creek region, was bitten by a large copperuead snake yesterday while in its crib. The child began crying and told its motner that its back was cold. The mother investigated and f-uad that the child was lying On a snake that had coiled up in the bottom of the erib, The snake had bitten vhe Laby on the neck, but homemade remedies prevented the pvison spreading, ‘The snake measured over six feet in length. ——_ ie Broke His Toes While Dreaming. Dreaming seems to be a disease of the season. Esq. John Davidson tried his fo.tune tn dreamland one night last week. He got intoa fight with a dog and was kicking at it. he anssed the first kick, but the next time he hit it squarely—it was vhe toot ot the bed, and asa result he broke two of his toes, and he has not been able to walk much — since.— Wilkesboro le around Chronicle. acer Se ae Baltimore Negroes Revolt, That the negro voters of this city are determined to demard recognition from the white leaders of the Repub- lican parcy was shown by the themes the c.lored churches today, and at ore in particular the matter was taken _ up in a most pointed manner, At John | Wesley, M. E. Church tae Rev. Dr. Ernest Lyon holds forth. In «addition to being an eloquent speaker, he is considered a leader ot his race im this city and State. Dr. Lyon holds dip- lomes from the Union Theological Seminary of New York and the New Orleans University. Last tall he vas appointed by the national Republican campaign committee as chief of the campaign wo:k amoig the c.lored people of New York city. Naturally, when it became known that he was to. take up this much mooted question in a sermon this morning, hundreds flocked to hear the colored leaders to hold a conference |. and tormulate their demands “for recogn'tion. They were then to meet came of the conference they were to devise means by which the white Republicans could be brought to terms. —Baltimore Dispatch, | ‘ 7 : F 4 I me ee preached by two negro preachers i in all} what he hadto say.
