'j0 The Sen ate yas engaged to-day upon iiseries and 'fortifications,'. . the House on Oklohoma Territory. In the latter body Gov. McCreary, of Kentucky, reported from the Foreign A Hairs Committee a substi tute tor Judge Wilson's retaliation, hill and gave notice that he would call it up for action on Saturday. He says that its discussion will not last longer, probably, than one day. The report of the committee is signed by all the members., but it is under stood that the Republicans will argue that the President' has all necessary power under existing laws. - Mr. Lynch, a Democratic member from Pennsylvania, says that the nominee in the district now repre sented by both Mr. Sowden and Mr. Frmenteont is in no danger from Sowden's independent candidacy. The Republican minority of the Printing Committee very much stirred up over the majority report which completely exonerated- Pub lic Printer Benedict, have made a sav age minority report which accuses the Public Printer of suppressing evidence in matter printed. Some 1" the North Carolina mem bers will "make their appointments in the canvass coupled with the statement that engagements here may operate to keep them from go ing home, in which event some other gentleman will be present to address the people. It is not expected now that there will be an adjournment much, if any, before the election. Senator Allison is always just two weeks ahead in his predictions as to when the Senate taritt bill will be re ported. He says now that Septem ber 10th will be the date. There is to be a conference -to-night of the Re publican Senators on the subject and perhaps on other matters. The bill providing for a revenue cutter for New Rerne has passed' the Senate. It is Mr. Simmon's House bill and goes to the President. The cutter is to take the place of the cut ter Stevens. Mr. Thomas W. Strange, of Wil mington, is here. News from' the Capital. Special Corresiiomlence to The Plant. , -Ralkkui, N. C, Sept. 1 , 'S8. Raleigh's cotton receipts for the season ending yesterday were, in round numbers, "4,000 bales in excess of those of the previous season. For the season of 18S(-7 they were ol, 027, and for that of 1SS7-8 they were oO.olo. Secretary A. A. Thompson, of the cotton exchange, thinks the crop of cotton in this section will not be so large as most people believe. The Department of State is send ing out many thousands of copies of the election law7 and the proposed amendments to the' Constitution. The sleeping car "Saluda," which passes Durham, has been levied on by Sheriff Rogers in the name' of the State. The specific tax on the Pull man C6mpany is $"00. Thev now. decline to pay, on the ground that the Inter-State Commerce act ex empts them. There was some trouble last year in getting the tax. Now the case goes into the courts. It is an amicable arrangemenkand pending a decision by the courts the car will not be taken out of the State. It is believed that Raleigh's to bacco and cotton receipts the ap proaching season will be consider ably larger than for the season now ending. The receipts of cotton would have been over' KMX) bales, but for the washing away of important bridges. Now the bridges-will be in good shape and both cotton and to bacco can came here. Active railway movements in the northeastern section continue. Con tracts win next week be awarded for the construction of a section of the Chowan A: Southern railroad, thirty six miles in length, from Xansemond county, Va., to Hertford county X. C, and of a section thirty-seven miles long, from Roxabel, Bertie county, to Tarboro. This road is to have a Raleigh connection, new short liiuyfrdm folk. ; .1 Mr. I J. C.

He says trial n tne reuueeu rate tickets hail beil put on sale on the Western railroad and perhaps some other roads, a great many more clubs would haveb(. en represented.

(:)ur reci'ij)ts the past week were very light till tonhly, when we had heavy sales, consisting of most all grades. No change in prices worthy of note and we-renew, last week's prices.

The weather continues very dry and hot in this- section. Rain is very much needed. I W. II. S. A- Co. i; I Xorth Carolina jind Virginia, the world is, in one sjense of the word, against you. T,he unprecedente(l run that North Carpi ina fine brights and Virginia brigljts have had at high prices has arofised a prejudice against. these bright tobaccos, and the friends to Rurley are endeavor ing to blow it for all it is worth. We have for several imjrmths been call ing your attention to the importance ot putting yourselves in a position to meet the crisis, will be overstocked I. I - li'l , Ii. A oneco. v ny nox when the world with bright to rT the sun-cured Little Oronoko, which is the mildest tobacco that has ev in North Carolina? Divide your e productions whi and opportunityi hrmht tobacco have! er been j)ioluced you have time The best days of past, louniust wake up or you wiU be left behind. It was only last' we -k that Mr. Alex; Harthill devoted nearly eight col umns fh the Wexf'-qt Tohacro Journal nppn White Rurle and again this week he has a rehash of one and a half columns, winch we proose to copy in Thk PfAN" for the benefit of North Carolina! tobacco raisers, and we might say Virginia, too. It is hot that Nortfi Carolina does not proluce as fine Ivr.'ippers as in days past, but it is a ire udice on account of i the unprecedei ted high prices that the North (farolina tine brights have enjoyed forj so long a time. We are inclined to tjiink there is a little envy and a litlle jealousy. Read Mr. Ilarthill's rehash. We would publish the oriLdnKl iiece written bv him, but ite threat length will not admit it : THE FUTUUK OF ii t r IHULHY. In m v.-communication last week in your paper 1 referred to the prob rley being made into Africans. Since; then I understood that some Rurley Africans have been shipped, and but lor the great ad vance in prices!! last year more of them would have followed, exporters of such having been satislied with their venture in Rurley to Africa. "Reing afraid i of wearying your readers with the length of my re marks last week, I could have re ferred, which I do now, to the well known fact of Rurley 'leaf having been used as wrappers for plug work, both in the South, East and West, and even at: 20 to M cents per pound, according to the market, it has estab lished itself to some extent in pref erence to tlie more attractive look ing bright Iwrappcr of Virginia or North Carolina. So much for fashion. The Rurley! wrapper has the advan tage of beingenerally the finest part of' the Rurley plug, and is chewed up to the last particle, whereas bright wrappers are. frequently picked off and thrown! away by the chewer, as the bright wrapper and Rurley filler don't go well together with the chewer of Rurley. ' . 'In the irianuficture of cigars also Rurley leaf has been used to some extent witlt varied success, depend ing on the jproper selection ot leaf and 'sweating of it. to smoke and burn as well as necessary. . 'Tn the article of cigarettes also bright 15urljjy.is now used largely in the South ajnd elsewhere purely 1 itself in most cases ami more than likely to be jiermanent. When bright Virginia becomes too mostly, western smoking tobacco manufacturers have used brightj Rurley to a large extent to mix, and; no doubt do now. As is well known;, Turkish is used by lead ing American .manufacturers of ci garettes as a mild and colory mixer with Virginia or North Carolina; I look for old, sweet, bright Rurley to increase in consumption for the same purpose,, both in this country and abroad. i "In referring to the future of South ern tillers, i wish to say that while 1 have stated that Rurley could not be grown on lands in Virginia or North Carolina, I will qualify that by saying that I have seen speci mens of Ri(rley tobacco grown there some wars! ago, hut it was so unde sirable in J some respects, that its growth, as I understood, was aban doned. Ifun-cuied leaf of Caroline and Louisa counties, in Virginia, could be produced, by any means, of a much iiiLDKii type, or any other variety dr proximate qualities- t for a better me then overed which would ap Rurley in its essential leu there would be hope outlook than appears to is now for urowinr the present stronger chewing types in Virginia, ajnd North Carolina, and speaking fdr myself 1 wo'uld as cheer fullv buy liny mild tvpe of the weed grown there as I would if grown any where else, if it suited my custo mers. I have tried Virginia sun cured leaf i in (Jreat Rritain, but it proved foojstrong for my customers, the Western Pryor being quite as strong as they could use. "1 profess to he independent in the matter of buying tobacco where ever it is growni so long as I can find sale for it, and jl expect I would buy it just asSooii if grown in Colorado as I would in Texas or Virginia, if suit able, and .'while I would like to hear of growers in Virginia and North Carolina producing leaf that "would fill the bill ' for chewersand smokers of mi mi toi acco, I at the same time wish to suggest to growers of yellow western le:jf, and particularly Rur ley, to adopt the same process of cur ing used iij North Carolina, as I be lieve undeij proper management Rur ley leaf caft be produced with more of the higl colored lemon or canary in it than jjver we have seen, and be ing thie-cirred, would not have the fired flavor, so objectionable for home consumption. The "Oronoko"' or some other variety of leaf has been produced for years in Kentucky and Missouri lljue-cured, and as wnippers give satisfaction to manuf icturers. Rurley meh, I think, may look into this matter with advantage. Apol ogizing fori taking up so much of your space 1 remain, I Alex. IIautiiill. - Loi;isvirLE, Kv., Aug. 25.
