SUUAR CANE.
In an interesting editorial on the
advantages presented by the coast
section of North Carolina to the agri
culturist, the Wilmington Review
calls special attention to its adapta
bility for sugar cane culture. It says:
The area of this sugar cane produc
ing belt embraces something more
than 7,000 square miles, and much of
it is peculiarly adapted to the growth
of that important agricultural pro
duct. It is no longer a doubt that in
this area sugar cane can be produced
of equal quality of the Louisiana cane
and with equal profit to the producer.
It ia the most profitable crop that can
be raised in the State. Our own
farmers are turning their attention to
its production with profit, and if
those of the North who would come
here as tillers of the soil would settle
within the area mentioned and turn
their attention to this branch of agri
culture they would reap a rich re-:
ward, and would find the business a
pastime as compared with the toil re
quisite to cultivate a' crop on their
own soil in that rugged climate.
The impression has long, prevailed
that sugar cane, in this country, could
only be successfully cultivated, in the
southern portion of the Mississippi
valley, which is demonstrated by 1
practical results to be an error. But
a few years ago tobacco culture was
confined, in this section, to a few
counties in the border regions of
Virginia and North Carolina, the be
lief being that it could not be profita
bly grown outside of that limited
belt. Now it is cultivated from the
sea coast to the mountains, and yields ,
handsome profits. A few years ago, ;
too, the cultivation of rice was at- j
tempted only in the low flats of the"
coast country where flooding could
be easily done, now it is raised suc
cessfully on the uplands. '
Not many years ago it would have
been dimcuit to convince tanners
that clover could be successfully cul
tivated in this section, while now it
is grown on many farms, flourishes
and yields astonishingly. So eSrperi
ment and experience demonstrate
new theories and explode old ones
which had no foundation and were
simply taken for granted by the mass
of people because somebody said so.
SOUTHERN PROUKESS.
We publish elsewhere from the
Baltimore Manufacturers' Record an
interesting statement of the progress
of cotton manufacturing in the South
since 1880, which gives some idea of
the remarkable progress she is making
in that industry. It has gone on
quietly, no great noise has been made
over it, but the mills have increased,
the looms and spindles increased, and
the product increased beyond the
anticipations of even the most san
guine. It is not stopping here, either.
for it goes on, and will continue to go
on until the great bulk of the cotton
crop is spun and woven near the
fields on which it is grown. At the
present rate of progress it will not be
many years before this is so, and
then with her other industries, u
which she is making gratifying prog
ress too, to add to her wealth, what
a mignty power tne outn wiu De,
She is no longer the simply agricul
tural South, contentedly raising the
fleecy staple, sending it to market
and taking whatever offered for it,
and dependent upon other sections
for every implement of common use
that she needed, but is boldly striking
out in new paths, and not only shows
her ability to hold her own, but to
lead her rivals in the race.
The Record notes as somewhat re
markable the fact that in the period
written of the greatest increase in the
number of mills has been in North
Carolina, which is excelled by only
one State, Georgia, in the increase in
the number of spindles,- which is a
gratifying showing for North Caro
lina, which some people have been in
the habit of calling "Old Rip Van
Winkle."
Thus the good vork goes on, quietly
but steadily, and our peopie are mov
ing, on resolutely to the grand destiny

SOUTHERN PRQ3RESS.
REMARK A BLE INCREASE IN COT
TON MANUFACTURING.
Some Interesting and Valuable Figures
Showing the lacrease since 1880. .
Baltimore Manufacturing Eecord.
The South and its rapid develop
ment are everywhere SDoken of. The
papers North, South, East and West,
as well as European are almost daily
telling of the unexampled progress of
that fair land which stretches from
the Southern border of Pennsylvania
.down to Mexico. And thus the world
knows that a new South ;has arisea
from the ashes of the old, and that
the slow and easy methods of former
times have given place to a spirit - ot
enterprise and push that would do
credit to the great West with its stir
ring life and activity. But while' the
world knows of these things, it ia only
in a general way . Every one knows.
for example, that the cotton manu
facturing interests of the South have
wonderfully increased of late years;
but.few tuow just how great has
been that increase. Hence, with a
view of showing just what has Jbeen
accomplished in this one line cotton
manufacturing we have carefully
compiled a full list of all the cotton i
mills m the South, with the inumber
of spindles and looms in each ; and, by
comparing the figures thus obtained
with the report of the United States
census covering the year from June
1, 1879. to May 31. 1880. we can readi
ly see just how great has been the
advance made. The summing up of
these figures, which are presented in
full detail further on, cives the fol
lowing remarkably interesting. table:

The foregoing figures show that at
the present tiinetherS 'are 1,276,422
spindles and 24,873. .looms in the
Southern - cotton . mills, . as against
713,989 spindles and 15,222100ms on
May 1st,-1880, or an increase of 562, -
433 spindles and 9,651 looms in just
three years and a half, or an increase
in that time of about 80 per cent, in
spindles and 60 per cent, in the num
ber of looms. It must be re nem-
bered that these hgures do not rep4
resent the entire number ot new
spindles and looms placed in South
ern mills since 1880, but only the in
crease in the present aggregate num
ber as compared with the total on
Mayl, 1880. for thousands of old
spindles have been taken out during
the past three years and been re
placed Dy new ones; so mat couia we
obtain the exact number of new
spindles and looms purchased by
Southern mills since the census re
port was gathered, it would probably
be not less that 800,000 of the former
and 15,000 of the latter. Moreover,
there are a large number of new mills
under construction, and quite a num
ber of old ones that have either very
lately been enlarged or are now un
undergoing that change, all of which
will require a considerable number
of spindles and looms; and could, the
total requirements of these mills be
obtained they would still further
swell the foregoing figures. From
the preceding table it will be seen
that Georgia heads the list with 340,
130 spindles and 7,843 looms ; while
Maryland, which in 1880
was second, nas dropped
back to the fourth in position,
permitting North Carolina to take the
second place, with 213,362 spindles
and 3,543 looms, and South Carolina
third, with 190,048 spindles and 3,389
looms. Alabama comes in fifth,after
Maryland, though she has only about
one-half as many spindles as the lat
ter State, followed closely by Tennes-

any other mill in the South. In North
Carolina the tendency appears to be
in the direction of small mills and
many of them.
Despite the general depression in
the cotton goods trade of the world,
there seems to be no disposition to
cut short the work of increasing the
spinning capacity of the South. At
the present time there are quite a
number of new mills under construc
tion, and arrangements are being
perfected for the erection of a good
many more. We have lately chroni
cled in the Manufacturers Record
the fact that a New York dry-goods
firm have determined to erect a 50,
O0043pindle mill in the South, with a
capital of $1,500,000 ; and, while we are
not permitted to give further particu
lars' we are permitted to say that plans
are being perfected for the construc
tion of another mill, probably in a
leading city of Georgia, which, if car
ried out, will go a long way to show
the abiding faith of the foremost men
fif New England in the future of cotton
manufacturing at; the South. The
originators and backers of this scheme
are known not simply in America,
but throughout the cotton manufac
turing world ; their command of capi
tal is practically unlimited; their
judgment' is everywhere accepted
without question, and their plans; if
finally matured, will give a wonder
ful impetus to Southern cotton manu
facturing interests. As might readily
be supposed, they are long-headed,
New England capitalists.
' The advantages of the South for
cotton manufacturing have been so
often pointedout in theManufacturers'
Record that it.seems hardly necessa
ry to again call attention to the many
reasons why that section must inevi
tably be the centre of the cotton in
dustry, not only of America, but
eventually of the world. And though
it may be some years before this is
fully accomplished, yet the change is
already in progress, and in due time
it will be seen that the mills must be
located where the ' cotton is grown.
The truth is fully recognized by that
distinguished economist, Mr. Edward
Atkinson, of Boston, and in his re
port for the census upon the cotton
manufacturing interests of the coun
try, after showing the much greater
advantages that New England pos
sessed with the industry as compared
with the most favored districts of
England, Mr. Atkinson wrote :
.'It may be said that this proves
too much, and that the cotton spin
ners of the cSouthern States will have
the same relative advantage over
New England. Let this be freely ad
mitted. We are treating the ques
tion of the future supremacy of the
United States in the manufacture as
well as the growth of cotton, and if
the future changes in population,
wealth and 'condition of the different
sections of this country shall cause
the increase of spindles, especially in
coarse fabrics, to be planted in the
healthy hill country of northern
Georgia, eastern Tennessee and the
Carolinas, it will simply Tse the great
er evidence that natural laws are
paramount. If Georgia has twice
the advantages over Lancashire that
New England now possesses, it will
nly be the. fault of the people of
Georgia if they do not reap the bene
fit of it."
According to the census, the value
of the products of all Southern cotton
mills for the year ended May 31, 1880,
was a little over $21,000,000, and,
while the exact figures for the past
Joar are not obtainable, yet it is be
eved that the value for 1883 was be
tween $35,000,000 and $40,000,000.
Such a very large increase in the
number of Southern mills has, of
course, resulted in a heavy demand
upon Northern and Western machin
ery makers and dealers for all the
varied machinery required m a well
equipped cotton factory. In fact,
many Northern manufacturers have
found their best markets during late
years to be the South, and many mil
lions of dollars have gone from the
latter section to makers of spinning
machinery, engines, boilers, water
wheels, &c, exclusively lor cotton
mills, in addition to immense sums
expended in the same manner for ma
chinery for other kinds of industrial
enterprises. It is estimated that
during 188L 1882 and 1883 from $20,-
uuo.uuu to 9Zo,wuiWJ nave Deen in
vested by new and old cotton' mills at
the South in machinery alone, and
almost the entire amount has been
paid out to Northern and Western
manufacturers of machinery. This
enormous demand for cotton ma
chinery has by no means reached its
limit, for -it is quite certain that the
increase in this industry in the South
will be greater between now and 1890
than ever before.

from lapse of time as to the original

Bank vs. Blossom.
Where the transcript of the record
fails to set forth facts necessary to
the determination of the case on ap
peal, it will be remanded, to the end
that the same may be supplied, or
found by the couit below, as the na
ture of the cause may require. The
Code, section 965. j
Osborne vs. Leak.
1. A script was offered for probate
in the proper court and a caveat en
tered, and an issue devisavit vel non
drawn and the case docketed for trial ;
the matter was compromised by the
parties and by agreement a verdict
finding the script not to be the will
of the deceased : Held, in an action
to recover possession ef land, the
writing cannot be put in evidence as
a muniment of title, with an unre
versed judgment against it in the
probate court ; nor can the same be
set up and established as a will in a
collateral proceeding.

proper court is an indispensable pre
requisite to its validity as a convey
ance of real or personal estate. The

the Revised Code, all wills must be
admitted to probate under its direc

A Quick Recovery.
It gives us great pleasure to state that
the merchant who was reported to be at
the point of death from an attack of
pneumonia, has entirely recovered by
the use of Dr. Wm. Hall's Balsam for
the Lungs. Naturally he feels grateful
for the benefits derived from using this
remedy for the lungs and throat, and in
giving publicity to this statement we
are actuated by motives of public bene
faction, trusting that others may be
benefitted in a similar manner.

Old Boreal on the Itampagfe.
The high winds whistled around the
chimney tops and steeples, and blew
bricks down into the street, scarinir the
people who walked below. Snow, sleet
and hail drove into the faces ot those
who dared expose themselves, and
made them button their coats tight
around their throats. Of course there
were sore throats and colds and coughs
and rheumatisms the next day. But
what were these to men and women
who could step into any drag store and
buy a bottle of Perry Davis's Pain
Kmer?
