GENERAL NEWS. The fem«lc3 outnumber the males in Alabama by 17,247. There arc r ver 100 varieties of timber in Murray county, Qa. There arc 00,000 orange trees at B ly St. Louis, .Mississippi. There will soon ho three cotlon-sced oil mills in anil around Cheraw, Ain. K om one aero of long staple cotton In Rankin county, Misiissippi, Mr. W. Wnddell realized f2)0. Tlio Pen.

A young lady near Rainbrldge, G a .J has about four acres in onions nndex>. peels to realize |l,tf00 on the crop. The number of bearing orange trees on Halifax river, Fla., iB estimated at 300,000. New groves lire being planted all the time. A bill withdrawing all public lands in the State from sale or lease for two years is to be ibtroduced into the Texas Legislature. The Key West sponge fleet, number ing 70 vessels and about 000 men, is out on a cruise. A large catch of sponge brings about 1800,000 into that city. The entire police force of Birming ham, Ala., have demanded higher wages, and refuted to work. They are being paid 100 per month in city script, dis counted twenty per cent. Almost within right of the Court house at Montiiello, Fla., there arc 300 acres of watermelons and 90 acres in potatoes. These crops are estimated to bring 'lie producers f 2 ',000. Tho Nortli Carolina .State Board of Agriculture have decided to make n full displiy of State products at the fair of llio New England Mechanic’s Institute, nt Boston, in September next. An nm ole appropriation will be made to secure an admirable display. There is talk in Georgia of purchasing Liberty Hall, Alexander Stephen’s late residence, by voluntary contributions, and retain : n it the famous rolling chair and other relics, making it a peculiar pilgrim shrine for tho people of the State, especially the young men. It is also suggested tlist the State employ siine famous sculptor to make a statue of the late governor, seated in a roller chair, for Georgia’s contribution to the Natfonol Capitol. The Charleston Nows and Courier states that South Carolina phosphates are in demand in almost every market, and 3outli Carolina fertilizers arc pro nounced by progres ive farmers to be the chcipest and at the same time ilie m st valuable commercial manures that can be used in the cultivation of our various crops. More than $3,000,000 are nvested iu the manufacture of fertil izers in that State, and a very largo cap ital is also employed in tho mining of phosphate rock. The great bulk of the jugware used in the S.rnth is manufactured above Ath ena, where clay especially adapted to this purpose is found. It is taken from the banks of Btrenms and all the work done by hand. A man can manufacture about 100 gallons a day, but a onc-leged jug-maker iu Jackson county easily pul up 200 gallons. The clay is first ground, every lump carefujly weighed, when the vessels are formed around a revolving wheel turned by the foot. They are then baked iu furnaces and g'azed with gloss They sell for about four cents a gallon at the works. The story is told that some distance down. I he Georgia railroad, not far from Augusta, a case was before a Justice, and an Augusta lawyer was one of the atlorneys employed. The lawyer, hav ing all the facts i nd the law that he desired in the case, made little or no argument before the Justice, but to his utter astonishment the case was decided against him. After court was over the lawyer went to the Justice privately and asked him how in the name of common sense he could decide that case as he did. He simply replied: “ Well now, sir, we Justices know a great deni more about these cases than is ever brought up before the court. Montgomery, Ala., has the following manufactories now in operation : Two oil mills, one flouriDg mill, one cotton mill, two planing mills, four grist mills, two ice manufactories, two easily man ufactories, two sodawater manufactories, two carriage manufactories, one furni ture manufactory, one broom manufac tory, one tinware manufactory, one clothing manufactory, one wagon man- fertilizer works, one Iron works, two marblo works, two railroad machine shops, one railroad car work), one gin and machine works, one cotton compross, one oil refinery, two iron foundries, four printing houses four brick yards. The above make? a total of -11 establish ments in operation, which is a f lir ex hibit for a city comparatively unknown i s a manufacturing point. Double Consciousness. The ilisappear-.nco of the Rov. John Mnrsland, ..f Windham County, Connecti cut, and his explanation when ho w as found at Binghamton, N. Y., 400 miles away from his residence, that all that lind happened in tho interval was a blank to him, brings up tho mooted question whether there is or is not such a disease ns douhlo oonsoiouBness. Many skeptics aver thnt such a condition of mind is impossible, but several physicians of this city and Palis declare thnt tho diag nosis of this mental disorder iB well de fined. Dr. William A. Hammond, of Now York city, being asked his opinion on the snhjoct said; “No doubt that amnesia, or double consciousness, exists in both a chronic and acute form. It is something more than nbscut mindedness or temporary insanity. I linve classified it ns a mild form of epilepsy. Mnny cases linvo onino undor my notice. Among them was thnt of n patient, in n largo morcnntilo establishment, who left his office nt I t o’clock to got a signature to a paper from a gentleman wdinso piano of busi ness was distant only a few minutes' walk. He had not returned nt 3 o'clock, ntid, uh was subsequently ascertained, visited the office anil obtained tlio signature, and left, apparently in good health, nt 11:30. IIo did not appear nt his own nfiico fill nearly G o'clock. - Tlio last thing lie recol lected was passing St. raid’s elmroh, nt tho corner of Broadway and Vcsoy street. It was subsequently found ho had gone to Brooklyn, visited a newspaper office there, and purchased a newspaper, lie then returned to New York, got into an omnibus at Fulton ferry, left it at tho corner of Twenty-third street, entered tho Fifth Avenuo Hotel, aud while there recovered recondition." “An oven more interesting case oc curred in the autumn of 1875. A patient, who was a manufacturer, left his office at 8 a. m. to buy somo bulbs. Ho re- mniued away eight days, awl no trace was ohtaiuod of him during that timo. Subsequently it was ascertained tiiat he had been to theaters, nml hotels, where lie slept, nud stores where lie made purchases, and thnt he made a journey of 100 miles from New York. Losing his ticket ho was put olT at away station, niul, returiiiug to New York, passed the night nt a hotel, and oil tlio eighth day, nt about 10 o'clook, made his nnpenranoo at liis office. Ho had no recollection of wfint occurred, though ho acted coher ently aud had drank nothing intoxicating except a glass of nlo, which lie had w itli somo oysters in a restaurant on Hixtli avenue.” Dr. Hammond’s daughter has com pleted a novel entitled “Mr. Perkin's Daughter,” which has been accepted by G. I’. Putnam’s Hons. Tlio plot turns upon tho idea of a douhlo consciousness. The heroine, while in the “second state," engages herself to be married, and when sho recovers her normal condition has forgotten all about that. Tlio publishers have induood Dr. Hammond to write a prefaeo, which cerlilics tiiat this pheno menon of double consciousness is recog nized by the medical profession.—1 tin- neapolis Tribune. A Knotty Problem. It was a severe retort; and yet a mer ited reproof for a piece of unenlled-fiir asperity and unkindness, if not of down right indecency. They were in the small cabin of a river ferryboat. Two young ladies sat to gether, one of whom hod just had an ambrotypo likeness, or miniature, of herself takeu, which sho was exhibiting to her companion. Sho was an ordinary appearing girl—she of tlio ambrotypo —with one exception: sho had a very largtf nose—an enormous nose for such a face. On the seat opposite sat a middle-aged, fatherly-looking man, to whom an am- brolype was something ngw. His garb and general ajipearanco bespoke a man of the rural district. As tlio owner of the picture was about to put it away, this man put out bis hand, and asked if he might be permitted to look at “that erepietur?” The girl looked nt him indignantly. “What is my picture to you ?” she re torted, angrily. “Just you mind your own business!” For a moment tho man was as one thunderatruck; then he seemed hurt, and pained; and, finally his honest face was stamped with disgust. After a timo lie caught the gaze of the damsel fixed upon him ns though half ashamed of herself; but she would not break tho silence. He, however, ven tured: “You’ll pardon me, miss; but I had a particular reason for wanting to see tiiat ere pictur o’ youm.” “Weli,” Bnified the girl, with a de termined effort to maintain her assumed diguity, “what might that particular reason have been ?” “Wnl—it might a’ been a good many tilings; but really I was cur’ous to see how in tlie world the man 'at made the pictur ever contrived to get that nose on to so small a plate!” At that moment the boat touched tho lauding, and the countryman pio.ked up his bundle, bow l politely at tho chok ing, quivering d: .iael, aud moved ou.

Whittier thinks that tlie old Indian policy of reservations is no longer available. “Tho Western tideoi immigration,” lie writes, “is everywhere ■weeping over tho lines. What is need ed,” ho adds, “is that not only the Indian schools should be more liberally sup ported, but thnt new ones should be opened without delay. The matter does not admit of procrastination.” In cutting away the knolls about tho old fort at Luko George, N.

Tlio English Government is com pelled to meet this need by arbitrary reductions. In this country tho demand is likely lo bo answered by ingenious in ventions, which of themselves wink a rev olution in methods of transmission and expenses of operating.

When tlio new clootrio lights in tlie Big Mountain colliery, near Hhonnndoali, wuro first put in operation a fow ilnyH ago, suvon dazed and dazzled mules, whieli for live years had seen no brighter luminary than lanterns, turned tail and lied into tlio depths of tlie mine. The workmen tell interesting stories about the habits of colliery mules, tliuir tough ness, their contentment, and their total depravity. Bovorul months ago tlie lower lovois in the largest colliery nt Ht, Clair were Hooded, work wns stopped, uud all tlio tnuli H were hoisted to the surface. More than a dozen of them had passed eleven continuous years in the mine, and had apparently forgotten tiiat tliuro was a world of grass aud sun- sliino, for when they wore turned out t" pasture they huddled together in evident alarm, and for a whole day did nothing but gaze on earth and sky. The prob ability is, Hint tlioy were at first blinded by tlio glare—a common experience with their kindred under similar oireuin stances. Just as they wore beginning to onjoy their now life work was lesumi d iu tho mines, and they went hack to their old homo in tlio darkness. A Remedy for Itlplitlierin.
