TOBACCO DEPARTMENT. Alex.. Walker, Editor. Durham, X. July 14, 1S8S. The subject has been agitated at different times as to what per cent, of the 1887 crop has been marketed, and we have heard various estimates. Some say the crop is nearly all sold, while others j say 20 per cent., and some 25 per cent of the crop is still in the iarmers' hands unsold. Now, I frankly admit that it is a very difficult matter to define how .much of the crop till remains in the barns, and we can only draw our conclusion by what we hear; and what we see; and what we hear from the farmers and from those that can vass the country, and then note the quantity that is being put on the markets, j and we may then form some opinion that will be as near correct as any. And as to the" re ceipts and sales for the past two weeks, there has been no falling off in. quantity and but very little va riation in; prices. For the last four days the! sales have amounted to 208,048 pounds, and sold, for $20, 1)74.94, making an average of near 23 cents per pound for everything sold. This goes to. prove to ! my mind that the 1887 crop is not all sold yet. The crop reports continue gloomy witn outiew partial snowers. We notice ; a letter from Messrs. Carr k Dickerson, of Richmond, Va., published in , the Western Tolktcco Journal bearing date of July 4th, 1 888, in which they say some goo'd things, state some; tacts worth v of consider jation and -j investigation, but at the same time We cannot endorse all their views, and we mav at no distant da v have something to say on the same subject. ' I i liicliiiiond, I On 'Change this morning the usual quietness prevailed in bright tobacco, arid with the exception of sales of a few low grade smokers, at prices that could not have paid the shipper much, nothing was done. Sales of sun cured were large and prices well: sustained. A good many private letters received from differ ent sections of North Carolina report growing crop as looking bad, and there is'no doubt but what there is k good deal of truth in it, and our dealers generally accept it, but still it does not visibly affect our trade. What we need now, to instill life in to our market, is the settlement of the tax question, or the adjournment of Congress. This is the opinion of our best informed dealers and they are growing very impatient and in dignant at the treatment of this sub ject by Congress and expressions of opinion are very outspoken and to the point on every side. It seems now as if there was no likelihood of the passage of the Mills bill by both Houses at this session, and unless a separate bill for the abolition of the tobacco tax is introduced and pushed through, it is likely the tax will remainluritouched. Such a bill as this, however, is talked of, but to introduce it! requires a suspension bf the rules, and, consequently, a two thirds vote, and it is probable that if such a bill . were introduced it wbukbrneet with no better success than it has in previous sessions when it was attempted. It seems, indeed, hard that our trade should year after year undergo the many disadvantages consequent to a con tinual agitation of this question, and it is to be j hoped that the much needed relief will be given us soon. J. M. Taylor, j Person County News. Roxboro Courier. iYe learn that a man who lives on Marlow's Creek let the cuckle-burrs take his corn. This man, we think, should girdleLiip his loins and rid his corn-field of these" cuckle-burrs. Mr: John C.

Reports as drawn uut by inquiries of the 'Bishop, were made as to the number and condition of the Sunday Schools in the Raleigh district nnd the educational interests. The Bishop, in the course of the full examination which he gave the sub jects under consideration, as each pastor made his statements, made many valuable and interesting sug gestions, in which he presented the claims of the educational institutions of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. He referred especially to the claims of Greensboro Female College and Trinity College. .The Raleigh DistrictSunday School. Conference, a separate organization, will hold its selsion to-day, and such statistics as have been systematically prepared will j be reported to that body. The reports verbally made show increased Activity and enlarged usefulness andlintiuence in the dis trict as to Sunday School work. The literature of the M. E. Church, South, was heartily commended by the Bishop. He presented the in terests of the Nashville and Raleigh Chridian Ad vocafes and the Sunday School publications of the Church. The attendance of delegates and visitors is large and much interest is being manifested. -L Orange County News. I Ilillsbo'rb Papers. :Rev.
