The Sea Island cotton planters of South Carolina, who were to hold a con vention last Thursday with s view to forming a combination to prevent the sale of Sea Island cottonseed, decided at that meeting that it would be unwise to attempt to do this, as it wss not deemed practicable. The ecumenical convention Is almost as lively aa a session of tlie house of rep resentatives with Tom Reed In theebsir. Mr. Atkinson’s statement that he desired to "knock a bishop down—from the cbalroronthe floor,” is an evidence that muscular Christianity la gaining ground with the brethren. Tux stars and stripes are to wave 1,120 feet above the ground—higher than a flag has ever waved before. Itia to be done daring the World’s Fair from an American tower that will outdo Eiffel, Paris. The builder Is to be Andrew Car negie of Plttsbnrg. Andrew thus pro poses to elevate the Amerloan flag as typical of tbs lofty tariff out of which he has made his millions. Mb. O. E. Lapiiam, of Staunton, Va , % gentleman of considerable wealth, formerly of. Chicago, has offered to the' Farmers’ Alliance of Augusts county, Va., to bntld a beot-sugar factory with a capacity of from 150 to 200 tons of beets s day, provided the farmers of that •county will plant not less than 1,500 •acres In beets. Mr. Lnpham also agrees to furnish the seed and the fertilizers re quired, and take his pay In beets. “Obskbveb” in the Atlanta Journal agrees with Tax Times-Becobdkb as to the folly of Dr. Candler’s attitude on the King Solomon show question. He "ob serves:” "Brother Candler has been so persistent in bis objections to ."King Solomons’’ show, without ever buying ever seen It, thst my neighbor asked me to-day, ‘Alnt Parson Csndler In the psy of the show, thst la to get people to go, ’cease he says it is bad.

Instead of fighting railroads as some of the Southern States are con stantly doing, it would be the part of wisdom If they would give every posal ble enoouragement to railroad builders end operators. The South needs more railroads and more capital, and It oan only get them by fair and liberal treat ment” SOLID INDUSTRIAL GROWTH tN THE SOUTH. The Manufacturers' Record, of Balti more, October 17, in reviewing the in dustrial progress of the south, says: "The past week has been a very active one in southern development, and the Manufacturers’ Record has very rarely bad to report a wider range of indus trial advancement than for the last seven days, even though the financial world Is not yot looking for investments In new ventures to any great extent. Despite this, however, the south Is poshing ahead and rapidly organizing new man ufacturing and mining enterprises utilize Its vast resources. This growth Is not confined to any one state, nor to a few industries only, but takes In the whole south aud covers almost every lino of manufacturing, including fur naces, foundries, cotton mills, coal mines, iron-ore mines, ice factories, water works, electric-light works, wood working enterprises, tobacco factories, fertilizer factories, breweries, phosphate mines and works, etc. The leading event of the week is the announcement of the final closing of the salo of 150,000 acres of mineral and timber land, including coke ovens, lum ber mill, etc., in Eastern Kentucky to a Belgian syndicate tor (5,000,000, a part of which, It is understood, goes Into the opening of new coal mines, the building of coke ovens, furnaces, saw-mills, etc. A dispatch from London says that the directors of the Mlddlosborough Town Company have voted $1,250,000 to be ex pended in pushing the enterprises under Please Report.

' Accobdibg to tbe Washington (Ga) Gazette tbe first two cotton factories lo Georgia were built In 1811, and one was In that county. It was called Bolton's factory, though that wss not tbe charter name. It wss on Rocky creek, within a few yards of what is now Simpson’s mills. It was of stone, and Mr. Simpson has under his mill-house a part of the atone arch over the door. A part of tbe name Boltpn is easily read, and the fig ures 1811 plainly remain. Mr. Bolton, a Savannah man of that noted rich and aristocratio family, was chief stock- bolder. The financial trouble caused by the war of 1812 caused tbe failure of this factory. In the old file of the Ga zette of 1810 the factory property is ad vertlsed for sale. The prohibition business has got the tobacco worms on the run; and now tea and coffee are to be laid out. Here Is the latest development of science on tbe the bill of tbe snpposed harmless bever. ages thst we drink: "The case of Dr. Fowne* of New Yosk, a prominent phy sician who died from the effects of strong coffee, taken in immense quantities, is attracting general attention. It Is prob ably the first ease on record in which this beverage has caused death, and tbe Interest of physicians Is correspondingly awakened. The effects of tea and cof fee, unlike those of alcohol, are not in stantaneous, sad their results are not easily traoesbls to the proper cause.

At no diatant day the question of pav. ing the streets of Americus will come up, and preparatory to that event the city fathers might investigate the merits of vitrified briek as a paving material. Lexington, Ky., which claims to have been the first town in the country to test bricks on a roadway, la now laying vitri fied brick on about two miles of streets It Is claimed by Lexington people that twenty-five or thirty years ago an old resident there endeavored to secure tbe use of bricks for street-making by tbe local authorities, but, failing In this, he put down at his own expense a small amount of brick paving on one of tbe busiest streets in town, and that these bricks are etlll lu a good state of preeer- vatlon. In Galveston there is considera ble discussion as to what Is the best ma terial for paving, and Mr. Walter Gres ham, in reply to inquiries addressed to prominent men in cities where brick roadways have been tested, has received several letters very strongly commend ing them. Mr. William G. Whipple, of Little Rook, after describing the manner of putting down the brick, says: “We expect the pavement to last Ilk* granite. It Is now aa smooth and noiseless and as easy for animal and vehicle as asphalt." If people would take the advice of W.
