Receipts jf the Cation Exposition.
A general summarizing of the
aggregate receipts of the Atlanta
Cotton Exposition gives the fol
lowing results: Cost of the Expo-
-.ition was $2.10,000, of which $110,-
000 iii round figures was put in
buildings mid improvements and
the balance paid out for running, „„ , , . , ,

receipts were from two hundred
and twenty to two hundred and
fifty thousand ..dollars, of which
$111,000 came from stock, $11,000
from privileges, $15 000 from en
try fees, $00,000 from gate receipts
and $1,000 from miscellaneous re
sources. Add to these receipts
whatever the buildings will bring,
say from forty to. fifty lliousa: d
dollars and you have the total, re
ceipts of the International Cotton
Exposition. The CiinnliliiUim says
it is‘safe to say that the Exposi
tion will certainly wind up with its
debts paid, owing no nmn a dollar
ami without having called fir an
extra Assessment on the stock. It
is possible that there may lie a
very small percentage to return to
the stock-holders,'lint this is ibnilit-
ftll. We think none of them ex
pected much when they subscribed
and that, they put, their names down
lor what they were willing to eon-
tribute to a successful carrying out
of the experimenter the world's fair
in the South. The Exposition lias
been successful in all the practical
points—beyond what any subscri
ber dared to hope for when lie sub
scribed. .Secondly, if there should
be anything at all returned on the
stock it will lie received as an un
expected but welcome dividend.
The Cost or the Giiltcnii Cornell)'.
Now that Hi.) trial of the assas
sin gives some promise of drawing
to a close, some individuals of leis
ure are figuring up the cost of the
farce to the Treasury. They pu*’
it all the way from $100,000 to
$1100,000. To .lodge I’orfor and
Mr. Pavidge, who are retained for
the prosecution, they will assign
the comfortable fee of $21,000.
Next will cWne the demands of
the official stenographers, wl.o have
made vctbatiin reports of the pro
ceedings anil furnished the District
Attorney with 11 copies every day,
for all which they will expect
from $10,000 to $11,000. About
two hundred witnesses have been
summoned, and the witness fees
will lie very heavy, especially those
of the twenty-live 'experts called
for the prosecution, who will re
ceive not only the usual allowance
and mileage, but the value they
pul upon their services during tlie
days, and even weeks, which they
have given to the ease. Then
is the maintenance of the assassin,
the pay of extra liailill's, printing
and a hundred incidentals. To all
which must be added, ill the now
generally expected event of con
viction, the expenses of execution.
The gossips may he extravagant
in their figures, but it does look as firmalorv
if the minimum expenses would tn pi
reach a round hundred thousand.
And then some sapient juror limy i
slick to it that Guitoau is :i verita- j
hie crank, in which event a new i
trial would present another bill.

Tom Alter, in a Macon VWc-

The admission of Nevada as a
State, which is one the monumental
humbugs of the century, has its
parallel in the creation of Douglas
county, Dakota. Some tall swear
ing on the part of interested indi

lation accomplished its organiza
tion, although it only has a voting
population of forty, with property
not exceeding in value $15,000.
There is neither schoolhoiisc nor

A .11 mnutile Review.
Tiio tola! number of business
failures lor the entire year 1881
throughout the United States is
stated by the mercantile agency
of I!. Dunn A Co. to lie 1,182, in
volving liabilities of slightly over
$81,000,000.
The failures lor the year previ
ous were only 1,7.11, with liabili
ties of $05,000,000.
The increase is. however, regard
ed by the agency as small in pro
portion to the enormous growth in
volume of trade, and especially in
proportion to the number of per
sons engaged in business, I'liin-
pared with 1878, the showing is
strongly to the advantage of the
year just closed. The failures in
that year being 10,400, and liabili
ties $2:11.000.000. Ill tin* year 1881,
only one person in one hundred
and forty engaged in business lets

tion was one in every one hundred
