LUM BKR TRADE OF PEN ' " :.- SACOLA. - -"N rth Carolina for many years Mijoyftit almost a monopoly in the Mtnmvrc(B arising out of the pro- Iwctsof the pine forests. She had t !--fruininence not only in ."'tar, pitch and turpentine," hut in timber lumber, and shingles arid staves. , Her sceptre, has not altogether de parted from her; but it has lost much i. its power and brightness. The forests in some parts are nearly ex. h:iuted, and cease to give import tuuf) to Washington and Newbern, i'ce ereat centres of ri: vl store trade. Wilmington alone holds its own; but even these there ;ir -signs of decadence. The nine lii-It ; exfonds along 'the Atlantic cmist from Virginia to Florida, and then takes, along to" the Gulf coast through Florida, AIabama,Mis6issip- pi and Louisiana. And the tide of forest industry has begun to sweep with strong current along those shores. Savannah, Darien and Brunswick in Georgia are now large exporters of things that were once almost peculiar to North Carolina, But the most remarkable advance has been made in Pensacola. That city has the finest poit on the whole coast, Atlantic or Gulf, south of Norfolk. It is backed by a deep belt of long leaf pine country. Pro bably for a century, certainly since the acquisition of Florida from Spain in 1819, there has "been more or less coastwise trade in lumoer irom mis point. But it is only since the closeof the war that its real value as a lumber and timber market was fully ap preciated. We present below a ta ble of last years business taken from the Advance-Gazette. - Why Pensacola has not become prominent for other business than those referred to is not surprising to those who know the slow prog H 88 made in the past two hundred ears under successive Spanish, English, and again, Spanish occu pation, and who observed how readily American suoctsfors to them all fell into the leisurely foot steps of European occupants. But it ought to be a surprise, neverthe less; for it has, as we have remarked, the timet and most capacious har bor on the coast, accessible t all times uitU-chrpth of 24 leet vtater 6ft the bar, a healthy and notu hot ctiS mate; good drinking water, and few i the drawbacks of a low latitude. And beyond the pine belt' a back country, with which she is now con ii. cted by railroad,- by which she might get the coal and iron of Ala. and Tennessee, and also the cotton. Her communications extend to the far northwest and she might be the entrepot for all the vast im ports for that section, and'become Hie intermediary of the vast busi ly ss with Europe and South Amer ica which is now controlied by New Orleans. Enterprise and sagacity m i ni all that are needed to give Pensacola a magnificent future. . Here is the table; Mr. John Pinney, of., the U." S. custom house, has made an elabo nite statement of the export trade f lumber and timber from the port i f Pensacola for the year ending April 1, 1886. From this we get the following: Exports to Foreign Countries- Lu nber, 41,178,000 ft., - value i7,848;Hwn timber, 104,460,000 It . value $1,007,918; hewn timber, 1, 398,124 c ft., value $153,070; total vlue, $,048;836. Coastwise TradLc Lumber, 28," 780,000 s ft. Cluverius paay not weara charmed life; but the halter draws very slow ly. After the last action of . the Court of Appeals of Virginia, and it remand back to the Hustings Court; if w"n naturaLto expect-that nothing more was to be done but resentence to execution. !The Court of Appeals has consented to another hearing which will not -be had until the middle of September. . - The persistent efforts of counsel cannot be condemned if there is good reason for it. Butdoes not this look like an effort to hoodwink the c urt and defeat justice when it is presumed to convince the court that they did not understand what tbey were talking about when they not long' since deliberately - expressed .ineir opinions. ; - A clipping from the : Baltimorean :- yiVfS the following information: ' Thomas Judson Cluverius has a . new but very brief lease of life At the request of his senior counsel, Jndje Crump, the Supreme .. Court . of Appeals has agreed to entertain a motion for a rehearing at their term . to be held in Staunton,- Sept. 10th, - This is a very slight ray of hope. --Id 1 he mean time he eats : well, sleeps well,and dresses well. He also sees the morning papers, and some ot the journals afford him pleasant reading. One of these has recently informed him in what precise locals ity he will be hung;, who will adjust the rope, who . will ; pull the same, and that the rope is V be made in Baltimore and 'the-hempen strans are to be so" interwoven ; with .wire, that its strength will be sufficient to hang any man, who does "not weigh as much as Jumbo, the elephant, Cluverius is now in solitary confine ment literally. -He remains in his cell by day as well as by night-; It is true, that there is a guard who occu pies the cell during the day and an other at night, butthese are any thing else but .companions, for no mouse was ever watched more close er by-a'cat than is C. by his special custodians. " Escape or . suicide are now simply impossibilities. : -To those , who have - been : pooh poohing the operatioi s ' of the Fish Commission as an expensive and useless institution, it may not be amiss to say that, at least so far as the shad fisheries are concerned, the work of the commission has proved a great success. ' An unprecedented abundance of shad this season is noticed in all the rivers which have been heretofore supplied with young fish ,Vy the commission. An evi dence that the abundance of shad is due artificial propagation is that the same increase is noticed in waters on the Pacific coast, in which shad were unknown until the young fish were placed in these - rivers by the commission. The most inveterate scoffer . can scarcely deny that if shad can be made plenty by artifi cial propagation in streams where they were unknown, that the num bers can be materially increased by the same method in waters to which they are native. An idea of the relative frequency of labor disputes and strikes can be formed irom the census report on that subject by Mr. Jos. - D. Weeks. In the year.lboU the number ot strikes and lockouts in the,. United States was 762. In 1886 a mere re view of those mentioned in the newspapers shows that the number was much greater during the first four months ot the year. In 1880 about 200,000 men appear to have been engaged, estimating the strikes of which the number was not re ported, and the loss to the men in wages was over $13,000,000. This year things are moving at a rate which involves to the working pop ulation a loss of over $40,000,000 yearly, distributed among 600,000 workers, though of course it is to be hoped that the same state of things, will not continue an entire year. But the loss in the census year would heve sufficed to support throughout the whole year 26,000 families, so thai it would have been actually cheaper for organized labor io keep thai number -of men in idleness the whole year than to resort to strikes as a means of settling their disputes. As for this year, the entire cost of the army and navy of the United States Zfot the fiscal year ending June 30 will probablv be less than the loss of labor resulting from these unwise methods. - Cure for PI lea.

There was a decided sensation at the racing grounds, at Cedarhurst, near f-ew York, on Wednesday, irh3n the sheriff made a raid , upon the book-makers.

Manager Hayman, Daniel - Froh man and . Marcus Meyer . have rust signed a contract . with Miss Fortescue for a long tour through the United States. Her first appear ance in New York will' take place at the Lyceum Threatre early in Octo ber, "and the engagement will con sist of six or seven weeks, during which she will appear in several plays.' Miss Fortescue has been acting since the termination of her suit against Lord Garmoyle both in London and the English provinces, and has been extremely successful. She is said to ; he a woman of Te markable beauty-and a little talent. Norway, whose annual revenue is barely about $5,000,000, spends yearly about $100,000, in fighting leprosy. A visitor to one of national asylums, in describing what she saw, thus concludes a long letter on the subject : Sadder to us than all the awful contortions and deformities we saw was to behold in one of the woman's rooms, knitting with the othera, a lovely girl. For years she may live ou some do for thirty or forty years after their admission, though mercifully 17 2 per cent die between 30 and 5Qyears. Yet tome live to an old age. It any are ever cured they are "ruins . of human beings." A gentleman,whose relations with President Cleveland are very inti mate, recently said that the Presi dent would not only be married .in June, but that the wedding trip had been partly arranged. The trip would embrace Buffalo, Canada and the White Mountains and might be even more extensive. While the bridal party were away several changes would be made in the White House for the comfort of Mrs Cleveland. The gentlemen said the President had beenjdecidedlyannoy ed when the report of his cominj marriage was first published huf now he takes the matter more philo ' sophically, and evtn enjoys some of the paragraphs afloat respecting the matter. . - Most Excellent- J.
