NEW BERNE, t N.' C. NOV. l", 1882. Entered at the Post ollieeat New Heme, N (' as second-class matter. j A defeat in .New York is con ceded by a large element iu the Republican party of that State. The Charlotte Journal blooms now w an eight column daily the largest in the State. The Charlotte merchants cause this by giving large advertisements. Hubbell's two per cents have netted this year nearly 400,000; and the beauty of the business is it requires no capital, and has but very little competition. J , jjji Pennsylvania the Cameron faction are trying to raise $200,000 to carry the lletnrning Boards. They believe . iu putting money where it will do most good. The tariff commission has closed its public sessions, reserving seven weeks in which to make up its re port; If it intends to embody what it doesn't know about . tlio tariff, the time is altogether too brief. Who fired the first shot on Fort Sumpter is being discussed. It is contended now that the Venerable Edmund Itullin is not entitled to that honor(!), although Gen. Beau regard so states in his oflicial report. : The Tariff Commission has finished its labors and will recom mend that no important change in tariff duties be made. That is exactly what the committee was appointed to do. The formation of the committee was only a dodge to eraiii time. Yennoe, the weather prophet, can hardly be expected to predict the weather of the entire country with any degree of accuracy when he fails so signally in the case of Canada. He predicted for October, in Canada, a very severe month of rain, hail, frost, and snow, but nev er was a weather prophet so wide of the mark. The month has been unusually mild and delightful, in proof of which it is said that wild raspberries have been picked near Moutreal within a few days past. Goveenob Foster addressed the Presbyterian synod at Columbns, the other day. on the question of prohibition, urging that no back ward steps should be taken on ac count of the result of the Ohio elec tion. Foster evidently intends to retire from politics,, at least until prohibition has taken an altogeth er stronger hold on the public mind than it has now. Prohibition in Ohio at present is the straight path to private life. ; S " Mes. Susan Edson, Garfield's nurse, lias nursed her bill so long that it has achieved a very lusty growth. It has just been present ed, and amounts to 110,000, or more, proportionately, than the bills of the attending physicians, with the exception of Dr. Bliss. Mrs. Edson was employed merely as a nurse and it would hardly be supposed that she could reasonably ask more for her services than the physicians who were employed for their skill. It is possible, however, that she justifies her bill on the ground that she did nothing toward killing the president, while the doc tors did. She prescribed none of ti e bl tinders which are said to have (! .: ". "! crimed the treatment. Go Slow. If all t lie iolitic;d thickens which are every day counted by anxious expectants are safely hatched out on the seventh of November, the United States will have an immense lot of poultry. . ' ' i Both political parties confidently claim the next House of , Congress in advance by forty or fifty ma jority, and already the whole plan of turning out members elected upon disputed majorities has been broached, discussed and insisted upon as the right thing to do. A dozen or two of people have been nominated for the Speaker ship by "persons who will have neither voice nor influence iu selecting that important officer, and a dozen other sensational pro grammes, wherein the one side or the other is expected to make itself particularly disagreeable, have been duly proposed and served up as "news" to a helpless reading public. Were either party iu Congress to prove as malignant and hateful as their representative political re tainers predict, the Honrs of the two houses would be turned into an arena of wild auimals instead of a debating ground for gentlemen and representatives of equal sovereign ties. There is a good deal of latent barbarism iu the human heart, which, though concealed by a mask, yet shows out occasionally through the crevices. A peuson of a statistical turn has figured out that the river and harbor appropriations since the foundation of the government were $121,(K?i8i;, of which 3t),(i!)0,275, or neft, .Joiie-third, were made in t lie last three years. Eastern riv ers and harbors received .2.'l,tM)2, 178. Of this, Massachusetts, which Mr. Hoar in his defense stated had never participated in river and har bor bills to any extent, had the largest share. t Southern livers and harbors, including half of the Mis sissippi appropriation, received 121,017,270, and western states and territories $33,410,132. Of the ap propriations" of the last three years, $7,350,000 went to the - east,1 $l.r, 840,000 to the south, and $10,500, 000 to the west, the large appropri ations for the Mississippi account ing for the excess of the south and west over the east. The necessity of the improvement of rivers and harbors during the past three years has not been much if any greater than it was before, and the fact that the appropriations during this pe riod have been so: extraordinarily large is due mainly to a full; treas ury. ' - ; !. .vi. r. The Approaching devolution of the MeatTraffic. . (Texas Live Stock Journal.; We might say that a revolution: is now taking place in meat j traffic' for it has surely made itself, felt already. The . butchers of : Balti more, of Washington and New York are alarmed at the constantly increasing quantities ol dead meat delivered and coming into compe tition with the cattle killed on the spot, much to the disadvantage of local butcher trade. The refrigera tor and hew firms have made ar rangements to engage in the busi ness, while other wealthy companies contemplate doing so at an early date. This dressed beef trade is not so young as it appears; it-has. been tried and tested before, and if not h ing else could be said iu support of its continuance, than that New Zealand and Astraliail colonics of England are now shipping to her shores in sailing vessels, cargoes of sheep and cattle dressed and ready for the retailer, it would bo suffi cient to justify the opinion, that' such business is. ") practicable and profitable. The question to ' be decided now is not whether the slaughterhouses be situated. Are we to carry our beeves to the mar ket or is the market to come to us? That is the question, and only time can answer it. " : ' The manufacture of ice and the great item of transportation will decide the business and so far as we can see into the future, from, the present, we are inclined to think that the market will come to us, ;iear enough at least so that it can be reached by Texas cattle on foot. . Whatever may bo the outlook we may view it without disquietude. There is nothing in this revolution to the disadvantage of stock raising in the west, and we conclude that the great change in meat trafiie is but another benefit to enhance the value of range stock and an ad ditional reason for owners to hold their herds. VTa ;Mnton Letter. Washixgtox, D. C, Oct, 28,' 82. The ouly solid sobriquet - that Washington has yet earned is: "The city of magnificent distances." The streets are so broad, the parks are so numerous and so spacious. that every locality is like the name the Russianized-Americau citizen wanted to give Alaska. He want ed it called 'Damlougwayoff,' as suggestive of its remoteness, and in compliment of the country from which we purchased it. But Wash ington really deserves the name of the Monumental city more than Baltimore, if not more than any city in the world. France, with all her warlike kings and emperors from Pepin to Napo leon IH, has not produced as great a crop of collossal bronze generals or collossal bronze horses, as the United States has. Washington has no equestrian statues of the Revolutionary war, Washington's and Greene's; one. of General Jack son, which may bo said to belong to the. war of 1812, since it is surround ed by cannon captured at New Or leans, one of General Scott, made by an art ist that never saw a horse, f ,;r it represents that animal in a position impossible, to be taken by a horse with his left fore and left hind legs extended forward ly and rearwardly, and the corresponding legs on the right side drawn under him, with all fonr feet on the grouud m a supposed walking gait. That such collossal stupidity should stand in bronze is a.travesty on common sense, to say nothing of art. The late civil war has stat ues of three generals, and several others in prospect. The contemplative New Zealand cr, when he roams amid tho ruins of Washington, a million . years hence, will doubtless conclude that war was our chief industry, and that the charger of General Scott had a miraculous pace." .Imagine volumes of art criticism on the mis placed legs of Scott's horse, such as has been written on the lost arm of Venus of Milo. The . monument, however, that dwarfs every other monument in this country, and that is intended to more nearly touch the moon than any structure ever built, tho Tower of Babel not excepted, is tho im mense shaft that is now being erected in memory of the "Father of his country." It has? as yet, reached only two-thirds of its pro jected altitude; but its dizzy emi nence is even now the. theme of those who have witnessed its grad ual growth. What an impressive effect mrst its sublime completed hetghth have upon those who gaze upon it for the first timet It is not yet known what figure will be used to surmount this mon uineii". Various designs have been suggested and various artists have published their views and submit ted illustrative drawings. The ar tist who suggested crowning the monument' with the Goddess of Liberty, extending her arms in blessing, has not been heard of, since .some journalistic critic wrote that his picture "looked like a be lated woman hailing a street car." I think the most appropriate sur mounting piece would be a statue of Washington himself, not on horse-back, but , representing him declining a renomination to the Presidency after lie had had enough of it. The Difference Take Your . , ... ; . Choice! . ' . (New York Hun.) The official figures prove that it costs the country about twenty -five millions a year more when a Re publican House of Representatives makes tho appropriations than when a Democratic House reports the supplies. .When the Democrats got control of the House in the Forty-fourth Congre8s,thirty millions would have been added to the saving but for the violent opposition of the Repub lican Senate. .-..' r These reductions were continued until more than a hundred million dollars had been saved, without a jar to the machinery of government or a just complaint of insufficient money for the discharge of the pub lic business. : ; ; ' t Last winter the Republicans re gained control of the House.; How they used the opportunity is well known to the voters who are about to pass judgment on their faithless Representatives. Ohio has set" the example. . '. , Secor Robeson was, the ' chosen leader of the majority. , lie' dictated the policy of the session. . It closed with a budget seven ty-eigiit millions in excess of last year's appropria tions, according to the lowest esti mate. . . , - Thus, in 1882, the old issue of 1874 is revived. Who can doubt the result of next week's election of Congressmen? ; But don't forget that tho worst possible way to establish an honest and economical Democratic majori ty is to send dishonest and spend thrift Democrats back to Congress. An Atlanta, (la., sight tho other day was a cart drawn by a team of tame alligotors. The Yeai-'j ITaret Report of Uie Agricultural Bureau on the Results of the Harvest. Washington, Oct. 10. The De partment of Agriculture reports the .average yield of oats will be higher than last year or iu 1870, ' and a product nearly as large as that1 of wheat, probably about 4SO,000,000 bushels. . Illinois, Iowa, New York, Wisconsin, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Kansas are the States highest iu rank in product tion. .- V . The rye average from State returns is fourteen and seven-tenths bushels, making a crop of 20,000, 000 bushels, or nearly the same as reported by the census. . The indicated average yield of barley is about twenty-three bushels per acre, aggregating 45,000,000 bushels. California, New York and Wisconsin together produce more than half, or 27,000,000 bushels. Product in 187!), 44 000,000. The prospect for buckwheat is good for nearly an average product, 11,000,000 to 12,000,000 bushels. Pennsylvania produces nearly half of the crop, and reports ninety-five as the average of 'condition, 100 representing the full normal yield. New York makes , an average of; seven ty-nve. No other State pro duces a half million bushels. The general average condition of potatoes is eighty-one. In the South, in the Ohio valley and in Michigan, Missouri and Nebraska the average is 100 to 100; iu the Northwest and in the Eastern and Middle States the condition is lower. It is seventy iu New York, eighty five in Maine mid eighty-four in Vermont. Ret urns indicate a pro bable yield of eighty bushels per acre on an acre of nearly two mil lion acres. The yield per acre of corn will be reported in November. The coudition averages eighty -one, be ing very high in the South and comparatively low in States of the largest" production. In Illinois, with eight percent, decrease in acre, the condition is only "seventy-two; in Iowa seventy and in Ohio eighty seven. The three States produced forty per cent, of the crop of -1870. Careful comparison of the changes in area condition indicates an aver age yield of twenty-five bushels per acre, 'against twenty-eight and three-tenths in. 1879 and eighteen last year. The average of a series of years is between twenty-six and twenty-seven bushels. New Eng land will produce, according to the October returns, 7,000,000 to 8,000, 000; the Middle States,' 82,000,000; the Southern States, 340,000,000; those north of Tennessee and west of Virginia . and Pennsylvania, 1,250,000,000 an aggregate of 1,080,000,000. .Later returns may slightly reduce, but can not ma terially increase this estimate.
