It is a noted fact that the tobacco

generally successful. -A well known
tobacco man accounts for tbis in
the fact that tobacco in those seor

A Proposition I Pay an Artvauc5
Price lor Cotton Covered in Cot !
ton Baggints.
Charleston, Sept. 18. Something
of a sensation was created here Sat
uiday bj an article in one of the
city newspapers advising the cotton
factors to pay one eighth of a cent
above the market price for cotton
covered in c tton bagging. As the
newspaper in question is said to be
owned by one of the largest and
wealthiest cotton factors in the city,
some significance is attached to the
article, the impression being that the
firm to which the owner belongs
will pay the advarce indicated in the
article. The proposition, however,
does not eeem to meet with much ta
vor amoDg cotton buyers, and these
are anxiously awaiting developments.
It may be mentioned as a very sigDi
ficant straw, showing how the war
on the Jute Trust is goiog that the
firBt ocean tramp of the season
cleared here to-day for Barcelona,
the steamship Ardanchorra, has a
car ro of about 3 500 bales of new
cotton on board, about one-fourth of
which are covered with the new cot
ton bagging adopted by the Farm
fir's Alliance. These bales were ta-
L-on r,n hnard after coins: through
the usual handling without, demur
on the part of either the ship owners
or agents, or the underwriters. The
proportion of cotton-covered bales
arriving here has continually increas
ed since the cotton season opened.
The'local .exchange has as yet taken
no action .on the subject. It will
! jai TYlAAt until after Oct. 1.

the isyBfcerh of liberal ecXucaubtt " how;
prevalerit'in the United States is its
lack of a truly progressive character.
It is fulj of fits and starts.v It is too
disjointed and fragmentry. This is
partly bteciase there are no settled
principles of procedure, ;hxmg the
order ahd amounts of studies; and
partly because there is no power
which ekn secure teachersthat know
precisely what they are expected,
fitted aid permitted to teach. The
consequence ia that the different
years of school life too much resem
ble the tlinerent successive sessions
of our pegislatures. Milton some
where decribes the process of legis
lation as "hatching a lie with the
heat of jurisdiction.' fortunately
the process also consists in the killing
the'bropd of lies already snatched oy
a previous legiwlation. Now the pro
cess of education in this country ia
by no means bo bad in this regard
as the process of legislation; but in
certain sres pects the former too much
resembjes the latter. Professor
