It was worth a trip over to the grounds to see Col. Olds working his men, and stirring himself. He has quite a happy company of workers, and so impressed and improved his men that his "mallet-man" is so attached to his mallet he never leaves it, even in bed or at his meals.

A Press dispatch to the Star last night says that the acting Secretary of War has ordered Second Lieutenant Chas. Del Hine, Sixth U. S. Infantry, to proceed to Wrightsville,;N. C, the scene of Ithe annual encampments of the North .Carolina State Guard, for the purpose of giving instruction to the First Reg'iment .of Virginia,. Volun teers, lhis regiment will camp with thp North Carolina troops this year, as the State of Virginia has not made sufficient appropriation for individual encampment of the State Guard in Virginia. Lieut. Hine has laid out a plan that will embrace rifle . instruction during the day and points in guard mounting during the night. He is from Fairfax county, Virginia, and has just graduated from West Point. RICE CROP PROSPECTS. Some Late Advices from the Fields I Prospects' of a Fine Yield. The rice planters are well satisfied with, the present prospects for the rice crop. ; The reports of the condition of the crop are very favorable, indeed, and the prospects are said to be all that could be desired. The acreage is not as large as that of last year, but if the present prospects are realized the yield will more than make up for the deficiency in acreage. The rice has entirely recovered from the effects ot the cold, which caused it to appear very small and backward in the spring, and it is now well advanced for the season. The effects of the late planting have been about overcome by the favorable weather for growing, and the prospect is that the late crop will be very fine. Some planters report grass in their fields, but not in sufficient quantity to cause damage. The present rainy weather is . favorable to a good harvest season, as a heavy rainfall in lulvand Auerust is likely to insure a dry September. It is too early yet to tell how the rice is heading out, but the indications are good. The harvest water is now upon some of the fields and other fields are about ready for it. There is not as much early rice as in former years, but the late crop is considered very fine. INDUSTRIAL MANUFACTURING CO. Armnfti Meeting A Hew Board of Direo- tors Elected.

Finley, the chairman. receives $10,000 a year, and probably is as good a man for the position as can be found, notwithstanding the abuse heaped upon him.

Hamp ton Roads, Willoughbybay and Mason's creek, known . as Se well's point, and probably the greatest water front on the Atlantic seaboard.
