OUTLINES. Gen. W. H.F. Lees condition slight ly improved and hopes are entertained of his recovery. Th mnW Yorktown has been ordered to Santiago, Chili, but it is denied that it is inconse quence of any startling news from Chili. Veteran cavalrymen of the Army of Virginia will meet in Richmond, Va to organize a movement to erect a monu ment to Gen. J. E. B. Stuart. Par- nell, the great Irish leader, died sudden ly Tuesday night, from rheumatism his death created a creat sensation throughout Ireland. -The Michi- gan Farmers 'Alliance convened Tues- day; a majority of the members favored endorsing the .

A monument to GariDaldi was un- veueu at in ice last sunaay. it was done in nice style. The Democrats are whooping it up lively in Iowa, and seem to be confident of electing not only Boies I for Governor, but a majority of the. Legislature. - .y The building for Manufacurters and Liberal Arts at the Chicago Fair will be a huge structure. More than 15,000,000 feet of lumber will be used in its construction. Kansas City has a ghost police man who patrols his beat regularly. In this the ghost beats the police man in the flesh, who don't patrol his beat regularly by a long shot. Reports from Washington say the indications are that the fight for the Speakership of the next House is narrowing down to Mills, of Texas, and Crisp, of Georgia. Great forest fires have been raging in California for a couple of weeks. The flames have swept over forty square miles, destroying many dwelling houses, barns, garnered crops, etc. The Sea Island cotton-growers of South Carolina not only propose to corner the Sea Island seed, but to keep it cornered. They don't seem tobe lieve in scattering good seed through out the world. . The McKmlev tariff has proved a prohibitory tariff on cotton ties. In the seven months' ending July 31, last year,- there were 16,392,920 pounds imported. In the past seven months there has been none. If Raum's refrigerator is as cool as he is it must be a daisy. The man who under the circumstances could ask for the dismissal of those three clerks in the pension office, as he did, could discount an icicle. One of J the first captures the new collector of customs in New Yoric made was a thirty-seven foot snake, which an enterprising im porter was trying to snake in with out the formality of paying duty. There is "a heavy tariff on much of the raw material that American manufacturers use, but there is no tariff on the raw material in the" shape of the thousands of immi grants that "are daily arriving to compete with the American work man. . Commissioner Raum says Presi- dent Harrison is satisfied with him. As he is satisfied with the pension office he will doubtless stick as long as he can. If he don't get down and out before the next Congress gets a whack at him there will be some dry- bone rattling. A party of Philadelphia aldermen recently visited Chicago, rbut they relieved the Chicagoans when they informed them that they were not there for business, but for pleasure. Had they gone there on business, with the reputation Philadelphia has recently achieved for crooked offi cials, Chicago would have felt very uneasy. 1 HE l he increased duty on hops to fifteen cents a pound has spoiled the business for Eastern hoD-erowers It has stimulated hopgrowing in the Pacific States, where the soil pro duces frpm 1,700 to 2,000 Dounds' per acre. The result is over-produc-- tion, and the prices down from 42 to 46 cents a pound to 15 and 16 cents. The Eastern hop folks are now hopping mad, and all because they got more protection than they want ed, and it didn't work. right. There was an impromptu jail de- iJivery in St. Louis a few nights ago. Two murderers, two burglars arid five bank robbers left without the formality of bidding the jailor s"vv v-vtuiijg. nuuuujr titu uiauic thm fnr r, t : in a town like St. Louis. esDeciallv when one of them was to be hanged in the latter end of this month. . He didn't fancy that kind of a latter end. Gov Campbell may possibly be, as some of the McKinley organs m Ohio say he is, hard pressed for money, in which case the Republi can managers can sympathize with him, as, judging from the fat-frying letters they are sending out, they are m the same hx. But he is not half as hard pressed for money as McKinley will be for votes in No vember. If there is to be a racket with Chili over Mr. Egan's blundering. why not send that great warrior Brayer Shepard down there? He would lift them out of their boots, for in his wrath he is terrible. If it be necessary to supplement him with war ships the ponderous Tom R'. ed. might be sent along with them. He had some experience during the late "onpleasantness " It is said that President Harrison is very proud of his small feet, from which it seems that the gentleman is inclined to smallness at both ends. The country has long known that he is a man of small under standing, but don't see anything -in it to be particularly proud of. Strong Fointa. Greensboro Patriot.

The evening was dark and cloudy, and about 7 o'clock the rain began falk ing in torrents, which continued until a ate hour. But notwithstanding this -a fair and cultured audience greeted "Jim the W,esterner," at the Opera House last night. This play is an American comedy drama, in four acts, and peculiar in that it is almost entirely different from the ordinary run of plays, and a very little akin to what the name would suggest. Although Jim is represented as being hard working honest miner, from Nevada, the scene is laid in New York City, and deals from the base-ball and race track to the great and wonderful excitement that often prevails on the Stock Exchange of Wall street, intermingled with the softer throbs ot the human heart where woman plays the conspic uous and tender part. Mr. Joseph S. Gibbs, who takes the part of Jim, is well at home on the stage, and so complete ly won the favor of the audience, that whenever he appeared the whole house was filled with a roar of applause, while Miss Pauline Willard, in her simple beauty and grace of manner portrayed so artistically the real nature of the gen tler sex, that one could almost ieel him self in the presence of love's tenderest woomgs. The support was fine from beginning to end, and especially did Mr. Charles Charters as Harry Lawton acquit him self. " Upon a whole the play could be con sidered first-class in every respect, and the audience was well pleased. THE RICE CROP. The Demand' and the Supply of the Ce realPointers for Planters. The following from Talmage & Sons will be of interest to rice planters: "Before the war most of the rice in the United States .was grown in North and bouth Carolina and (jeorgia, while now the production of Louisiana alone amounts to double all of these put to gether. The estimated production of clean rice this year is for Louisiana 350, 000 barrels, North Carolina 25,000 bar rels, South Carolina 100,000 barrels. Georgia 50,000 barrels, making the ag gregate 525,000 barrels. "The total rice consumption of the country is now about 800,000 barrels and the deficiency between that amount and the total domestic production has to be annually supplied with importations of foreign. Even making the most liberal 'allowance for variations in demand, there is still a great difference between our production and known requirements which fact ought to enable planters to get full as much asthe cost of import' ing equal grades in foreign." The Boston Commercial Bulletin says the foreign rice crop is short, and the quality is hardly up to the average. This condition of the foreign crop will permit dealers to hold domestic rice firmer than they could if large quanti ties of rice were imported. Last year our crop was small and the foreign yield large, which accounts for the steady consumption during the last five or six months of large quantities of foreign rice. The same paper adds: The future prospects of the market are hard to determine, but the largest dealers say that they ex pect values to work a trifle lower, reaching perhaps the lowest point in November, when the market will prob ably remain tolerably steady for the balance of the year. Prices on most grades of rice are to-day from clc lower than they were at the same time a year ago. ' There is now a good de mand for domestic rice, but there are practically no stocks on the market, all sales being made to arrive from New Orleans. Cotton Begion Bulletin.

Weldon recorded 1.24 inches; Raleigh and Cheraw .50 of an inch, Goldsboro .27, Florence .21, Lum- berton .22, Wadesboro .20, Wilmington .09, and Charlotte .04.

An Increase of Force Necessary to the Proper Dispatch of Business. The force of clerks in the Wilming ton Postoffice commenced on the night of the 18th of September last a count of all mail matter sent from Wilming ton, and continued it for seven days. The figures given below show what a large quantity of mail matter is handled at the postoffice here, andthat too with a force totally inadequate to the task. The "count" showed the following results: First-class, (letters') 26,193, weighing 781 pounds; postage, $536.10; postal cards, 6,115. weighing 34 pounds; pustage, $61.85. Parcels, 303; weight, 85 pounds; postage $15.59 Foreign letters, 472, weight, 11 pounds; postage, $23.32. Official letters, free, 625; weight 20 pounds. Second-class. (oaDersI 3,005; weight 2,107 pounds; postage $21.07. Third-class, (circulars) 6,787; weight. 187 pounds; postage $74.25. There were received for special delivery and registry fees, $15.50. The total num ber of pieces of mail matter was 43,890; weight, 3,245 pounds; postage, $739.15. This was all in one week, and that not at the busiest season of the year. And then, too, last week was one of the dullest weeks we have had in some time. This week the postoffice officials could have made a much better show ing; but nevertheless this goes to show plainly that the force in the Wilming ton office is overworked. NAVAL ARTILLERY.

Futures closed steady in New York, yesterday, with sales of 119,900 bales; October closing at 8.57; November, 8.78; January, 9.08. Darlington county, S. C: We have fine weather for gathering crops, and the fleecy staple will soon be gathered, The crop is said to be very short. -r- Receipts of cotton at Wilmington yesterday 1,420 bales; same date last vear. 1.227. The market was firm on a basis of 834 cents for middling; quota tions same date last season, 9 cents for middling. Union county, S. C: With all the favorable weather that can corar the cotton crop in this county cannot ex ceed more than two-thirds ot a crop. Very little has yet been picked and sold, consequently money is very scarce and trade is very dull. Usually at this time the gins are running, the market wagons are coming and going and money is be ing circulated, consequently trade is brisk and everything lively; but it is different this year. It will be a month before things get to moving round this way, The following are the weather lore - casts for to-day: For Virginia and North Carolina, showers, stationary temperature except slightly xooler on the coast, northwest erly winds. For South Carolina, showers, station ary temperature, northerly winds. For Georgia, generally lair, except showers on coast, stationary tempera ture, except cooler in extreme south, northerly winds. ' For' Tennessee, generally fair, warmer in west, stationary temperature in east, northerly winds, becoming variable. WHOLE NO. 7,725 Look Our for a Bis Blow.
