they: give of the operation, around
'Richmond is read, it must be admit

iVe said of their articles in the Oen-
titty JUagazine, as we said of Grant's
i account of the battle of Shiloh, that '
v it was all new to us. We had thought
: "Twe" had . some understanding - of jthe
Seven Days around Richmond,

Jing gained a victory and delivered

one fight, at Gaines's Mill, where it
was conceded that Lee gained an ad
'r vantage. -: : - - ' : .-.

" be allowed to go unchallenged m the

We suppose that . there is . nearly
double the quantity of tobacco grown
in North Carolina'in 1885 that there
was . in r 1879. The census of 1880,
giving the crop., oi 1879, placed the
total crop for the State at 26,986,213
pounds.; ; Seventy-two, counties niade
some tobacco, but fifteen connties I
grew all but 1,364,323 pounds. Trie
following counties produced most of
the crop:

" We suppose that last year Gran
ville (and Vance) made at least
6,000,000 pounds, and that Caswell,
Person and Rockingham were not
far behind. We have but little doubt
that the crop of 1884 exceeded ,40,
000,000 pounds. For years the prices
have been highly remunerative.' : The
fine tobaccos - of the best:; sections
wiir.average: from $40: to $80 per
hundred pounds leaf. ' t)f ; course
choice "lots" even fetch more. The
most successful, farmers realize from
$200 to $500 an. acre and many will
make $1,000" to - every hand they
work. While this is true of the best
farmers, there are others that realize
i-very rmuch lessy rnd the 'ignorant,
inniuess, lazy ones Dareiy e&e out a
living. There are no doubt in Gran-.ville-s
twenty-five menTiwhoirmake
from $20O to $500 to the acre. The
reports from the,, finest - tobacco Sec
tions are unfavorable as to the crop
of 1885. - .
BAUWAT ACC1DKNXS.
The Stab has claimed that it is
safer to travel on the cars than be
hind horse The - London Daily
Telegraph says it is safer to travel
on English rails .than t o walk the
streets of that -vast city and that
statistics show this. The safety of
railway travel is proved by the few
accidents that occur in proportion! to
the number that travel. The Tele
graph says that in 1884 nearly 900,-:
000,000 persons rode on the railways,
in the British Kingdom. Its ays: ..
,. '"Still some notion of the practical im
munity from danger enjoyed by railway
passengers can be gathered from the fact
tbat last year the proportions of killed and
injured, from causes beyond their own con
trol, reached in the former case to only 1 in
28,000,000, and in the latter, to 1 in every
1.O00.000 journeys." -
!rThe average was slightly higher
than hri883, on account of two' un
usually fatal accidents. The follow-
ing interesting statement in the Tele -
graph is given, and we would like to
see ho w it compares wjth railroading'
in the United States:
"The total number of persons returned
to the Board of Trade as having been killed
in the working of the railways during last
000 journeys of the season ticket hoMe ?it
appears that the proportion Of oassencera
returned as killed and injured respectively
during the year by accidents which they
could not have prevented was I in 22,419,
092 in the one case and lf3fl04,3881n the
other. It is interesting and , instructive to
analyze these figures a'Bttle further. Of
the 1,134 persons who received fatal hurts
135 were passengers; of the 4100 injured
1,491 belonged to the same category. , , This
brings us to another subdivision, upon
which the railway companies naturally lay
great stress.; Out of the 135 passengers
killed and 1,491 injured only 81 met their
death and only 864 rece'iTed JiurtSilrom
causes over which they had no control
that is to say, all the rest were guilty in
some degree ofcontribotory negligence.?'
' There is a suit pending between
the United States Government and
the Bell Telephone Company. The
object is to test the patent and ascer
tain if it was fraudulently obtained.
Heretofore - this Company has been
victorious in many suits. It remains
to be tested v whether it can triumph
in a contest with the : Government.
The 'Baltimore Suu k says :of the
charge of fraud "that was practiced
in obtaining tfief patentr '
ru ,'It is claimedritt the first i place by,the
plaintiff that the Bell patent is void because
-the force and opershontof a' current of
lecUricity which it assumes .to cover, is a
force and operation of nature, and is,there-
fore, not" patentable. In the next place it
is contended that Philip Re is was the origi
nal inventor of the telephone, havine as
long aa 1863 exhibited it in public, and f
con tinned to perfect it as a meomm or
speech down : to - the time of, his death in
1874; whereas the Bell patent was not ob
tained till 1876. T Other person had taken
"up the Reis telephone prior to-the last men
tioned date and effected - Improvements
upon it, all of which were known to Bell
when: he ? obtained --from "an -incautious
Patent Office employe a patent to which he
was not entitled,." , i --'Jw'. ;

In 1880, according to the census.
there were fewer persons foreign
born in North Carolina than in any
other State. The number was 3,742.
South Carolina was next 7,686 and
Mississippi third, with its 9,209. - New
York had 1,210,479. The total num
ber of foreign born citizens in! the
fourteen Southern States was 421,
953. So New York has nearly three
times as many foreigners as the en
tire South had.
Miss Minnie Maddern is now the
theatrical rage in New York. She is
a native and is thought to be quite
clever. The critic for theJt'messays
of her: -
"Hiss Maddern is probably the most in
teresting young actress now on the Ameri
can stage. She has many artistic faults,
but on the other hand she has intelligence,
a style, so far as it has been, formulated,
her own. unlike that of any other player.
and entirely free' from conventionality; and
a most charming personality which attracts
the sympathy and admiration of all classes
of tneatre-goers. .

two instances at Valencia, Spain',

found that tobacco workers enjoyed
a strange immunity from cholera.
At Valencia, where the cholera pre

Cheyenne. Beot 18. The Chinese are
fast leavin Rock Springs, being afraid to
resume work, and it is confidently expected
that the whites . Will soon ' take their, old
places. The road west from Rock Springs
is lined with Chinamen with their race to
ward the setting sun. - The white miners
here are greatly encouraged over the pre
sent nrosDects. and in all probability, in
stead or being a Chinese camp, it will ne
employing exclusively white labor. -.An
amicable adjustment between the Company
and Knights of Labor is expected immedi
ately. Gov. Warren and the government
directors are now in camp.
Attorney General CamDbell left Chevonne
for Rock Springs last , night, to prosecute
the participants in the recent massacre.
liumors are rife that further trouble at
Rock Springs is expected, but no particu
lars can be ascertained.
