Asheville Citizen . ! ItrJu2htto gratify a North G&io- lmiaril to see one of its porta attain- inw t.hfi lmnortaDce and dignity ofl great cotton market, pressing with steady step upon its rivals on either elde, (Norfolk and Charleston. It is ho lioneful nrosnect that it will fall inrinllWilminorton to ' relieve Noh Dirnllina from the contemptible po sitiori assigned the State as "a stHp of land between South Carolina ajnd ia." The attitude of North Carolina as a cotton State is a stir rrisiri? one. The crop had been cuk tivated time immemorial in the East ern and Bbme in4he middle counties; hut few of the larger slave holders engaged in it extensively, and it was not a templing occupaiiou iur n ema farmer before the war. North Carolina is now ranked as cotton State. From an annual crop in 1860 of 140.000, the annual ave- raero is now about 480,000 bales. Tho bulk of the crop has been ship- ped direct to New York, Ualtynpre and llNorfolk. A portion goes put fronit Washington. New Bern and Wilmington. Some finds its way to Charleston. In its new" consequence as a cotton portjl r WilmiDgton cannot depend larcfllv upon the product of North Carolina plantations. Little that eventually goes Nortl or abroad will take I a Southern turn' to select it : nlaca of shipment.' Certain sections are naturally tributary to that port. But reliance for the bulk of receipts ia upon the energy applied to attract and facilitate business, Railroad lines have been utilized as the chief adjuncts of the increase honea for; bar and harbor improve ments have been made to invite the entry of the larger class of cotton Atoamships: port' changes are ar ranged to present as little oppression as possible; wnarf facilities have beeu improved bo as to expedite the work of loading; and the compress ystetn ample, and powerful, is so arranged as to avoid all transfer after compression except to the hold of the vessel. The result is that Wilmington has became a rival to be respected. Her receipts promise to equal in time those of Norfolk or Charleston. Al xeadv this season they exceed by at least hve hundred percent, those for of the same time last year. This course will not hold out through the season; but we expect receipts to reach at least 200,000 bales, a -large increase over any previous year. Ihe Country and tbe Town. Lynchburg (Va.) Advance. "God made the country and man made the town," is an old truism and I vet it is a curious fact and one to be deolored. that oor vouner men in the country are always too anxious to move to town. ' They abandon! the homes wbere they were born, their parents and kindred, the sou from which they and their fathers before them derived their sustenance, and want to flock to our cities and towns solitary and alone, to seek their for tunes and a new mode of existence, and of subsistence. j Tfiey never committed a greater mistake in their lives. 'The people in the country can't dig their living and pros penty out of the soil beneath their feet for which Providence charges tfaeri nothing but the "sweat of their brow," when it is certain that they will have a much harder time of it when they 'plunge into the busy whirlpool of cities and seek a new mode of life and fortune. In nine cases out of ten they go under, and their life and fortune is not as good as the honest clodhopper who makes his bread by the sweat of his brow. Fr better would it be for : the present and rising generations if j the youths of the towns and cities would go to the country and learn to wield the Shoe and the plow, instead of waiting, like Micawber, for some thing to turn np to their advantage while indulging in idleness and dissi pations of city life. Upon this subject the Wilmington, IN. iU., &tab has the following Well timed remarks to' make in addition to what we have said. 1 Greensboro Workman: A gen- tleman whose name is Thos. Beaple, and who has been some two weeks a cuest of tbe McAdoo House in this city, attempted suicide this moring with a razor. Between 4 and 5 ! o'clock this morning the night watch heard a noise of groans proceeding from Mr. Beagle's room, and on entering found him lying on the floor with a mur derous gash across bis throat. Sir. Ed. M. Hendrix, of the firm of Hendrix Bros., grocers of this eity, was taken ill some two weeks ago, and was bereft of both speech and bearing. In this condition be continued about one week.-- One night he went to bed at 9.15 o'clock, and slept until about 10, at which time the Northern bound train on the riedmont Kauroad, which runs near the dwelling, came roar in it by. The sound and jar of the train awoke him, ana wnen ne was aroused up hnth sneech and hearing were restored. In a short ; while he was able to como into town. J Gibsonville dots: The cotton factory, a handsome brick bnilding which .mntAfi last SDnag "immediately oppo site tho depot, is now running steadily on ..n Hmo Htam is employed as a motive iinwftr. and 48 looms! are in position and :.,..n?nV hat the factory has ample room nr a total of 125 looms.

' T . .1.1 STAk of September 16th, appears an editorial headed i " Idleness The ly to which 1 wisnto say oniy iw Tn order to do bo as brieny as possible, I will direct my remarks n If aw of tho strongest sentences. The Stab deprecates -the taot mar, many young men j leave ineir oouu trv homes and seek employment in the cities, and thinks much wrong is done the youth of the cities by mer nhaiUfl who ve blace to country add. The Stak j ays: "Wny tne youLu OI ino vuuuw y uulu eagtr to escape the farms and rush tolbe towns, is almost inexplicable. Tt. i hpnanse the bOV8 born on larms see employment iq towns, that those urhrt are born in towns are bu wu. iriyen into enforced idleness. There is a disposition on tne part nfJmnlnvnra in towns to give ooun- try boys woric, to me eiwumun i the sons ot their neignuurs, fwuu and customers. This is remarkable. Tn another blace the Jstae says: "It is the duty, tof those naving , nuLa'tn bestow td distribute them am6ng the woriny youLu iu u lnnalitiAn rather than go off to other States or to the oounties- arobnd to seek ! ytonng men upon whhm to bestow their tavors. (Joming from the Stab, this i re markable. The jStab has been, so far as its readers are informed, an anti-protection journal. It has for yes.rs opposed Sam flandall and the Republican party because they were hih protectionists, ye.t Randall and the1 Republican party have never ad- ortA.teH an nli an pxtreme measure as t.lil Stak advocates in opposing the employment of country boys by city merchant?. ome bovs are born to follow pur suiks other than those in which their narnts were wont to earn a liveli- hood and to force them into empioy- I T .

Since 1865 the farmers of the South have worked hard and lived close, yet as a class their condition is not improved. Perhaps their efforts h've not been' properlydireeted; yet among them may be found I brain power of the firs calibre. To know how. to do U onej thing, but to pos sss the ability to do is quite another thing.

To know that many persons are o it of .employment in the cities and towris is ,to j be deplored, but is this fact one of recent birth? and! must tlie country j boy whose inclinations Lad him into the busy thoroughfares o " commercial life be charged; with the consequences I I would as soon h AA the railroads throughout the ciuntry responsible for the army of tumps that, infests the land as to nc akesuch a charge. ; i Couxtbt Boy.. f'Penor Wise and Ponnd Foolish," Richmond Christian Advocate; Profeesor !

DESTJS UOT1 VE CYCLONE, Brownavlllr,. Texas, aod SnrronndlBR i coaotry Swept by Wind bA siorm- Great Deatraeflon of Property Lo I Estimated at fl,000,000. IBy Telegraph to the Morning Star. 1 f I OAT.VH8T01I. September 23. A special to the News from Brownsville, says: A cyclone visited Brownsville Wednes day night, carrying destroctipn in its path. The rain accompanying tue wiu uciugcu tbe country for miles. 1 The loss in property and crops is very great, but cannot yet be estimated. Thus far no lives are reported lost. Tbe village of uanta cruz, opposite Brownsville, was entirely submerged for several hours. The Rio Grande rose rapidly and raged like the sea, and tbe backwater overflowed many miles of fertile country. Tbe wind.'reached a velocity of 80 miles an hour, blowing a perfect hurricane for a couple of hours. The rainfall during Wednesday night by actual measurement reached ten inches. Tbe floods did almost as much damage as the wind. Hardly a tree iB left standing in the vicinity of the city, and several hundred acres of valuable sugar cane were blown to the earth. The roof of the Masonic Hall was carried away, Scanlon's large warehouse was demolished, and many private residences were unroofed and had their contents totally ruined by the heavy rain. Many Mexican families whose frail bouses were toppled over, were cared for by the citizens and comfortably lodged in the public buildings. Telegraph wires were prostrated, and the extent of the damage south and west of here along the Rio Grande is not yet known. NewObleans, Sept. 23. A special to the Times-Democrat from Brownsville, Texas, gives a full account of the fearful storm there and at Matamoras. The dam age in that section is I estimated at $1,000, 000. In Brownsville seventy small houses Were blown down and 800 others un roofed and rendered unfit for occupation,' In Matamoras a dozen houses of the better class, and from one hundred and fifty to two hundred small houses were prostrated by the wind, while from four hundred to five hundred others were unroofed. In the country on the American side of tbe river incalculable damage was done. Countless heads of cattle and sheep were lost, and the crops of cotton, corn I and sugar cane were completely prostrated ana destroyed. Bkownstille, Sept. 23. The hurricane appears to have become a regular viBitor to this coast. Night before last another one made a destructive descent upon the two cities of Brownsville and Matamoras. Just about a year and a day bad passed since the Cbubasco of 1886, and the remainder of the funds collected for the relief of sufferers by the storm was being distributed, when threatening signs of the approach of an other of these awful visitors was noted. Tbe telegraph, several days ago, gave no tice of a hurricane southwest of Havana and moving this way, and for swo or three da j a the weather indications showed the approach of a storrn.j Though the barom eter and tide in tbe Gulf usually give warn' ing of coming bad weather, this storm gave no indication of its immediate approach. At 9 o'clock Tuesday evening, the norther, that had been blowing for several days, increased in fierceness, with heavy gusts of rain, and in a short time the hur ricane was on the towns in its f uil force, the wind reaching in the height of the storm a velocity of 78 miles an hour. All night long it continued howling, being mingled now and then with the crash of a falling house, the rending sound Qf falling trees, rattling of fences as they went over, or the shouts of those deserting their crumb ling residences or imploring aid. Morning dawned on a scene of desola tion. Water filled the streets through which a roaring north wind drove tbe ram like great volleys of small shot. Fallen trees; rums of houses and fallen fences, all half submerged in water, rendered passage difficult, and at times dangerous. At 2.30 p. m. tbe wind lulled and there was almost a dead calm until 4 80 p. m., when the wind came from tbe south. This shows that the vortex of the hurricane, as was the case of those of 1880 and 1886, passed di rectly over this section, i About 9 p. m. the wind again became violent, coming this time from the south, and continued until this morning, when the hurricane may be said to have ceased. I The duration of the storm may be safely calculated at thirty-five hours. The wind was from northeast, veering to northwest at tbe beginning, and from southwest dunnz the latter j half. The rainfall was Very heavy, j being 10. 4Q inches. The average temperature was 72 degrees. l ne vejao',t j 01 tae wind, while register ed greater than that of the hurricane of last pear, did not appear to show Its force du ring sudden gusts. The diameter of the storm was much greater, and its duration was longer than either that of 1886 or 1880. Tbe force was greater than that of the blow of the former year, hut not so great as that of tbo one of 1880. The fact that the bulk of people were better prepared for its coming, and that the weaker buildings bad been swept away by storm of last year, was the only reason for its not hei,ng more destructive, 1 The damage in the eouatrv outside of the two cities is incalculable, Countless cattle and sheep have been lost, and crops of cotton, corn and sugar oane are com pietely prostrated and destroyed. One rancher oa a small place calculates his loss in cotton alone ut $20,000, and many others aire equally heavy losers. The total of th losses win be far teyond one million dol lars. I FENDER.

A very respectable number of the leading- farmers of Pender county as sembled at the Court House in Bur law on the 22nd September. 1887. in accordance with previous public no tice. The object -was to organize a County Agricultural; Society. The meeting was called to order by the temporary chairman, B. T. Williams, Ksq. At the request of the chairman, J)r. S. S. Satchwell explained the ob- ect of the meeting, and in doing so made to tne farmers of the county some plain, practical remarks. If his suererestions are carried ont thev will tend to the rapid advancement of ag riculture. 1 1 The State Immigration Agent, J. T. Patrick. Esq.. being present bv in vitation, was called upon. He set forth the advantages or organization, as the most efficient means of advan cing home industries. A committee of one from each town ship was then appointed to nominate officers for permanent organization. In the absence of said committee, John Robinson, Esq., the former com missioner of our State Agricultural Department, being present, was call ed upon for a speech. He pointed out some of the mistakes of the farm ery, and told them how they could make farming profitable. He pledg ed the support of the State Agricultu ral department. 1 D. B. Nicholson, Esq., Editor of the Clinton Caucasian, being present. was called out. He responded happi ly. While he did not claim to be a farmer, he showed deep interest in the cause of farming and made a good agricultural address.
