A Sumter, S. C., correspondent re ports the weather perfect for gathering the crops, and cotton pouring into mar ket : rapidly, although the crop is two weeks late. - " ;'. " At Meridian. Miss., it isstated that the weather has been clear and warm all the week, benefitting late cotton. Pick ing is progressing well and the cotton is better in grade and staple than ever be- ore grown in this section. ";: Advices from Augusta, Ga., says : The weather has been clear arid pleas ant, with light rain on two days of the week. Accounts from the crops con tinue unfavorable, " rust and shedding prevailing to a considerable extent. General reports from the country claim reduction from last year s crop of twenty per cent. Young cotton depends upon the lateness of frost. New York, September 19. Hanckel & Riordan, in their, cotton re port to-day, say: "The course of prices for cotton contracts during the past week has fairly reflected the inevitable influence of large supplies of the staple being forced upon the markets, in which the demand for speculation, as well as or consumption, was already satisfied. Great Britain and the Continent seem to have recovered from the recent scare in regard to the new crop, and the for eign spinners, being well stocked with the raw material lor some time to come, are evidently inclined to hold aloof for the present and let prices take care of themselves." The fine weather of the last week which has prevailed throughout the en tire South, says the Savannah News, has caused the cotton to mature very rapidly, 'and is responsible for the heavy increase in port receipts. The fields are white now and picking, ginning and marketing are going ahead rapidly. The general opinion among cotton men is that the bulk of the crop will be har vested by tne latter part ol Uctober, and that it will be rapidly pushed to market. The experience of tne farmers last year by which they suffered so heavily in holding their cotton, has caused them to give up all thought of holding this year, and the crop will come upon the market rapidly. The result will be that the re ceipts during September and October will about equal last year's, but the probability is that there will be a big drop after that. Mr. A. B Shepperson has issued his annual report on the cotton crop. He writes: "In presenting the state ment of the American cotton crop of the season ending August 81, 1891, I beg to state that it is based upon official reports of the various Cotton Exchanges and information kindly furnished me by railroad officials, mill owners, United States Collectors of Customs and prom inent merchants. The figures are from mail advices, and their correctness may be relied upon. The commercial crop is the largest recorded,- reaching the enormous total of 8,674,417 bales aver aging 501.47 pounds per bale, against a crop the previous season of 7,297,117 bales averaging 498.14 pounds per bale. I am convinced that the actual yield was fully 200.000 bales more than the figures of the commercial crop. : I make Ihe crop about 22,000 bales larger than some other annual crop statements which have been issued. Thanksgiving Services.

It is a "Wedger's" torch, which can be . lighted like : a match against the wheel of the engine or any other metal or hard substance. Rain or dampness will not interfere , with its igniting.

OYSTER CULTURE Estimated Profits of Oyster Culture It : . Beats a Gold ' Mine And Will Hake Investors Rich. 7 7 7 Dr. E. Porter, President of the East ern Carolina Piscatorial Association, left for Stones Bay yesterday, and promises to exhibit some specimen oys ters at the Produce Exchange, Thurs day morning. It may be well for our business men to hear what he has to say on the subject. . .. In the prospectus of the above Com pany the profits, of oyster culture as estimated, seem enormous, as will be seen from the following extract from the prospectus: . - "In three years the young oysters will so increase by growth that each bushel planted will make three bushels of fine selected stock, worth fifty cents per bushel on the grounds. But for fear we may appear extravagant to those unac quainted with the capability of these fer tile lands, we will modify this statement and say that every bushel of small oys ters planted, will make two bushels in three years; and if we plant only 500 bushels to the acre, we will have in three years 1,000 bushels of selected oysters per acre, which are worth fifty cents per bushel as they lie on the grounds, (these oysters in the shell usually bring from a dollar and a half to two dollars and a half per bushel in the Wilmington, N. C, market, and bring larger prices in more distant markets.) The balance sneet will then stand (at fifty cents per bushel) as follows: Dr. To 500.000 bushels of oys ters planted at 12 cents. .$60,000 To incidental expenses (not considering profits made "on large oysters from na tural beds and put upon the market) . . . . ....... ..$ 15,000 7 77 $75,000 Cr. .

But remarkable as this estimate of profits may seemthere are men of ex perience in oyster culture who say that the planting of the oyster can : be done at a cost not exceeding six cents per busheljust one-half the cost estimated in the prospectus. :. It will be observed, also, that fifty cents : per ' bushel for selected oysters on the grounds is a very low estimate. Testerdar'a "Weatner.
