Geo. T. Murrell, Editor. One of the matters upon which light was admitted at the St. Louis meeting was tlie covering for the next year’s cotton crop. Representatives fr%m the jute factories outside the trust were there, and offers were made of contracts for 2-pound bagging at 7 cents a yard. Manufacturers of cotton bagging were also there, and offered the standard cov- iug of the Alliance, 4 inches wide, weighing2Y of a yound to the yard, at s cents. The farmers generally favored a continuation of the use of cotton cov ering, the standard having fully come up to the tests and been fo; nd safer, lighter and cleaner, besides making a market for inferior gtades of their own staple. The matter was referred to tlie state organizations,which will make ar. rangemeiits for bagging next year’s crop. The convention united on a demand for actual tare, which the Legislatures of the different states will be called upon to enact into law. Then a uniform cus- ton of 7 yards of 44 inch bagging, 12 ounces to tlie yard, will be observed, making no variation in the standard bales. The mills now have ample notice of the intention of farmers and sliQuld put in proper looms, which are 'inexpensive, so that no pretext may remain for ob jection to cotton bagging less than standard width and weight. The mar gin lor profit at the time stated,8 cents, is ample, and the the covering for the. cotton crop v. i 1 require betwtin 40,000,- 000 and 40,00,000 yards, or nearly $3, 500,000. The refusal of the government to grant a paten t on the standard cloth leaves no tangible objection on the part of the factories to its general produc tion, and it is not probable that any far mers will have difficulty in securing an ample supply for the next crop.— National Economist. Portland, ME., Dec. 21—[Spe- ial]— Capt. George B. Leavitt, of the whaling ship .Spy, of the Pacific Steam Whaling Company, is in this city visiting his mother, having recently arrived from Alaska, where he has been for the pv«t live years. He brings the first news of what inay possibly be the discovery of a hitherto unknown 1 md many miles north of Alaska. Capt. Leavitt’s win ter quarters are at Point Barrow, the most northern point of Alaska, and with his crew he has remained there for five consecutive winters, beginning operations ns early as April, four months ahead of the big whaling fleet- that visits the Arctic waters during the summer. For some time, Capt. Leavitt says, the natives in Northern Alaska, and on the small Islands in that vicinity, have been telling stories of an unkuown land to tlie far north. Many of the older in habitants stoutly maintain that there is a larger land north that no white man has ever discovered, and that is not down on any of the maps of the Arctic region. One of their stories is to the effect that several years ago an adventurous hunter of a tribe in North ern Alaska took dogs and sledges and went north across a frozen sea. Noth ing was heard of him for over a year, and he was given up as lost. Then he returned and told a wonderful story of finding a new land far across the ice. There lie built a hut and remained till the waters froze over again, when he found his way back to Alaska. But Capt. Leavitt’s story about the discovery is that during the cruise of one of tlie vessels of the whaling fleet, which ventured many miles further north than any others, a few years ago, her officers discovered a land that could not be found on auy of the charts, or accounted for in any way. A gale drove the vessel far north along the shore of the land, but the season was so late that the men-did not stop to explore, de siring to get south as soon as the gale subsided. These men held that it was an unknown land, worthy of explora tion at the proper season. No vessels have since been so far north. Capt. Leavitt thinks this mat' settle the ques tion of an open polar sea. There are no ice-drifts south of Point Barrow, he says, and tlie ice must find an outlet at some other place. During the summer months, the vessels find the sea very clear. r more wide-spread a 8a cause deeper or sorrow, than was carried over the country yesterday in announcing the death of Henry \V. Grady. % This brilliant young Georgian was cut down in the prime of life aud manhood ; but he had already been crowned with laurels of fame such as are won by few men after a long life of distinguished service to their Country. No man ever lived who occupied a warmer place in the hearts of his people than Mr. Grady. He Lad won their respect, their love, iheir admiration. He was the pride of his Stale and of the South. His career, while brief, was one of the brightest ever made by man ; and his name wii live in history, and remain a green 8pot in the hearts of his countrymen, as long as time endures. Henry Grady has done as much for his country as any man, be he living or dead. He has stood by his people and their institutions, and his pen and'his voice wete always hesrd in their defence. Henry Grady died as he has lived—battling for the good name of the South, aud in defending his people from the slander of their enemies. It; their grief, over the death of this brilliant young jour* nalist and statesman, his section will shed as bitter tears as were showered upon the bier of Jefferson Davis One died full of years and honor, the otht r was cut down in the prime of mauhood, and spread out before him was the brightest future ever- vouchsafed to man. His loss to the South is irreparable. There is no committed, where an manner 01 < _ which are verlta’ le spawniog places for lawlessness, n w propose to use the electric li$>hr. to do that work found to be beyond ::ie reach of the most vigilaDt police. These spots are generally quiet dur ing the day, but when the shades of night begin to fall and the veil of darkness covers the earth, the in mates of the deas cravyi from their hiding places, and until the rising sun dispels the night and drives these creatures again into their lairs, crime nigas supreme. Under the cloak of darkuess the most hurt idle deeds are committed, and the per petrators manage to escape. The White Chapel district of London— • the borne aud haunt of Jack the . Ripper—will be the first spot select ed for the electric light cxperiimnt Heretofore it h is been tlie practice to brilliantly illuminate the priuci- * pal thoroughfares and leave these low haunts ill darkuess It is now proposed, by the use of this new light, to transfoim these sections into unbroken daj', and rendcM- the commission of crime almost impos sible without detection. It will be an interesting experiment, and oco which vve believe will work with great success.

'J lie possibilies of cotton seed .seem to be limited l.y their opportunities only. A few years ago, the work of extracting oil from the seed was begun. It was a long time before the people could be induced to believi that there was any food value in the oil cake. Later this came Into general and satisfactory use for both feeding and fertilizing purpo ses. To hull the seed and thus make it ready for the oil mill was regarded a most wonderful achievement, but the mill managers occasionally discovered that they had on their hands a good- si7< d white elephant in the waste of not at that time been driven north. The Arctic Ocean is full of shoals far to the north, and wrecks are numerous eveir in the most favorable season. Capt. Leavitt is a native of this city, and bas a high character for ability and trust worthiness. Next season he will com mand one of the large steam vessels oi the company. He tells interesting stories of his novel winter life in Norther n Alaska, and says that the hardships are not so great as might be imagined. Lieut. Albin Hodgson, an old Athens boy, now of the United States Navy, has lately arrived in Alaska, with a fleet for winter quarters. He writes to friends in Athens some novel stories of Alaska life, among which is that all the water drank there is caught in vessels while it rains, a? there are no wells, and but few springs, on the elevated regions. A SERIOUS CHARGE, How to get rid of the hulls which ac cumulated in the mill yard was a trou blesome question The managers bade the people come and haul the hulls oft and use them as bedding for their horses. Recent experiments have de monstrated the value of these hulls as a food constituent, and now they sell readily at $150 per ton and are used f. r fattening cattle. Now comes information from Wash ington City that a machine has just been patented, hat will revolutionize the cotton seed oil business, and enable ti e cotton planters of the South to sell $25,000,000 worth of cotton seed which they cannot now sell for want of a mar ket. Tlie inventor, Sir. J. S. Cothran, sa -s there are annually 2.000,000 tons of cotton seed wasted because there is no market. If the seed could be exported the English oil mills would gladly buy it, because they cannot get enough from Egypt, their present sole source of sup ply. The seed cannot be exported be cause tbe cotton fibre, which surrounds it, after being ginned, heats in the hold of the ship and rots. My machine cleans the fibre from the seed, and leaves it as clean as a grain of wheat, in which condition it can be exported. Mr purpose is to establish mills at the various seaports of the cotton states, and commence the cleaning and ex porting of cotton seed. The cleaned seed will realize $30 20 per ton in Liv erpool. The entire costs of putting it there would be $20.00, leaving a clear profit of $10,20 on every ton of seed. If we cleared only one-tenth of the seed now thrown away the profit would be $6,000,000 for one season’s work. The English method for manufacturing oil from cotton seed is far superior to the American system, and they pay more for the seed and realize better results from the process.

Athens mourns the death of Ilenfy Grady with the most poignant grief. It was in this city that he first saw the light—here that he grew to man hood, and among our people he form ed ties ol affection and friendship that even death cannot sever. Our pen fails us iu attempting to frame words in which to express sympathy for the bereaved and stricken family. Indeed our heart bleeds for them. We mourn the loss of Grady as one of the truest and most loyal friends man ever knew- we mourn him as a Georgian, and feel that in his death has indeed tbe hand of affliction been laid heavi’y upou our state; we mourn him as Southerner, for he was the young David that was doing such man’y battle for the good name of Ins sec tion, and had even triumphed m the camp of our enemies. Lot his surviving friends, however feel that their grief is uot alone, for every true Southern heart and manly Northern bosom this day throbs in sympathy with them. We will never again see Henry Grady in life, or be charmed and thrilled by his elequence; but his name has been interwoven with that of the South, and future generations will point to it as an illustration of all that is true, loyal, and chivalrous Grady died as he had lived, battling for the good name of his people. He fell at his post, and there can be truthfully inscribed upon his tomb “ Here sleeps the truest and best friend Georgia and the South ever knew.” At Wauregan, Conn..last week a man bunting squirrels treed and caught a monkey, anil a few days before anoth er monkey was captured in a similar way ir. a forest in the middle of the State. • This is certainly an alarming statement.
