The truckman who took the barrel to the express office says he received it at a house near corner 2*th street and Wabash Avenue, in one of the most aristocratical portions of Chicago. From all appearances the woman had recently given birth to a child. There were a few marks on the body, but nothing to show how her death had ensued. THE DAILY TIMES. •lEOUiU I'Rlirx. CONSOLIDATED REPORT OF CROPS, &0.-- RETURNED TO THE STATE DEPART MENT OF AGRICULTURE, AT AT LANTA, OEOROIA, NOVEM BER 15, 1875 State of Georgia, Depabtment ) of Aohictlture. \ Atlanta, Nov. 22. J In the following report only the general State averages are given, the questions being so varied os not to admit readily ot county consolida tions. The yield of sugar, compared to that of last year, is reported ut 51. This very small average is due to two causes; the loss of seed tune by an early freeze last fall, and the drouth Id the cane growing portions of the State last summer. The yield of oane syrup compared to that of last year is 67. The average yield of syrup per acre is 192 gallons, which sells at the average price of sixty-eight cents per gallon, giving a gross income per acre of $l3O 66. The average eost of production of a gallon of this syrup is twenty-eight oents, or $53 7*l per acre, which, deducted from the gross In come, $l3O 56, gives a net profit of $76 80 per acre. Twelve gallons of syrup are made from 100 gallons of cane juice. The sugar made in Geor gia sells at the average price of nine cents per pound, and the molasses at forty-seven cents per gallon. The question as to the yield of sugar from 100 gallons of juice seems to have been' misunderstood by many corres pondence-some reporting from 100 gallons of juice and others from 100 gallons of syrup, so that a reliable average could not be obtained. Suf ficient data, however, are given to show that it is more profitable to sell the syrup than to convert, it into su gar on a small scale. A large majority of the correspon dents report thorough boiling all that is necessary to prevent fermentation. Some use small quantities of soda or ilme-one-fourth of u jiound of soda or one gullou of lime water to UK) gal lons of juice.—Cook's evaporator is the favorite with those who use other than the common cast iron boiler— the majority still use the latter. The yield of sorghum, compared to that of last year, is 423. This is a very large increase, due to an in creased acreage planted last spring, and to the unusually favorable sea sons in Upper Georgia, where this is becoming an important crop. The average yield of syrup per acre is 73 gallons, which sells at an average of sixty-six cents per gallon. This gives a gross income of $48.18 per acre, or, assuming the costof production to be the t same us that of cane syrup, twenty-eight cents—a net profit of thirty-eight oents a gullou, or $27.74 profit per acre. Fifteen gallons of sorghum syrup are obtained from 100 gallons of juice. This is three gal lons more than the average yield from cane juice, and probably due to the difference in thoroughness of boiling, as shown by the fact that the cane syrup is less liable to fer ment in warm weather than the sor ghum. Eighty-eight per cent, of the cotton was gathered on the 15th of Novem ber. Borne report all gathered. The frost, succeeded by wet weather, has rendered the pickings front late cot ton of unusually inferiorquality. The yield, com i>ured to that of hist year, is reported at 73J —hut a slight change from the October report. If this es timate is correct , t he crop of the pres ent year will be a little more than 400,000 bales, which, at eleven cents a pound, the average cost of produc tion, will cost the producers *20,000,- 000 more than it will bring on the home market,. In consequence of the unfavorable seasons, the yield of lint from seed cotton Is seven per cent, less than that of last year. The aver age yield per acre in seed cotton is 412 pounds; the cost, sixteen dollars per acre. From the October report w learn that, the average cost of pro duction of a pound of lint cotton is eleven cents; the cost, therefore, of a pound of seed cotton will be three and three-fourths. The average pro duct per acre—*l2 pounds—will there fore cost $15.45. Assuming that the seed will pay for the ginning and packing, and allowiug Jo. per pound of seed cotton to defray the expense of marketing, 412 pounds will cost $1.03 after it leaves the farm. This, added to $15.45, gives the total cost of $16.48 per acre—forty-eight cents more than the average retorted by the cor respondents by the addition of the cost of marketing. The average yield of corn per acre is reporledat nine bushels, some of the northern counties reporting as high as thirty, whit# some, in those sections which suffered from drouth, report as low as five bushels per acre. The average yield of blade fodder per acre is 185 pounds, and the aver age yield of peas planted in the corn is four bushels. All of these, corn fod der, and peas, referto the crop of this year. Peas, when planted alone, give an average yield of ten bushels per acre. The cash price of corn throughout the State is $1.08; of peas, $1.10; of fodder, i>er 100 pound, $1.19. The average cost of an acre in corn and peas is reported at SB. The ac count, therefore, with an average acre of corn and peas, will stand thus: By 9 bushels corn at SI.OB per bush el $ 9 73 By 4 bushels peas at sl.lO per bush el 4 40 By 185 pounds folder at *1.19 per 100 pounds 2 20 *l6 32 To total cost per acre * 8 00 By balance $ 8 32 The only item of expense omitted in the above cost per acre is interest on the land. According to the United States cen sus of 1870, the average cash value per acre of Georgia farms is $4.67. Interest on this at 7 per cent, increas es the cost to $3.32, leaving a bal ance of $8 profit per acre, or iust 100 per cent, on the cost, a very different result from that shown in the produc tion of cotton. The average yield of ground lieas to the acre is reported at 28 bushels, that of chufas at 20. The majority prefer the ground pea as a hog crop, and represent the cost of cultivation ot the two crops to be the same. The yield of sweet potatoes compared to that of last year is only G 7, and the average yield this year is only 60 bushels per acre, the drouths in the Spring and Bummer having in terfered with securing a stand, and tnat in September, which was gener al, seriously curtailing the produc tion., The question in reference to the best method of preserving the sweet potato elicited general and very in teresting response, showing marked uniformity of practice and experience. Digging in dry weather is universally recommended, and the practice of giving free ventilation until cold COLUMBUS, GA., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 1875. weaiher approaches, very general. Various means are used to ac complish this end. Some, after cov ering with straw and bark or corn stalks, cover lightly with dirt, leav ing the top open with a board laid loosely on to exclude water. As the cold increases the thiokness of dirt is increased until it reaches from eight to twelve inches, if banked out of doors. Many bank in log pens built for the purpose. In such oases but. little dirt is used. Some employ as ventilators u plank box extending from the base of the bank to the top. the sides of the box being perforated with auger holes to facilitate the ven tilation. The great end to be accom plished is the preservation of a uni form temperature. No more crop reports will be issued until April of next year, when they will again be resumed during the crop season. In order to organize a more thorough system of crop and weather reports connected with experimental investigations, a convention of the correspondents and experimenters of the department will be called to meet, in Atlanta the 25th of January next, to continue in session three days. Be fore this convention, various subjects of vital interest to Georgia agricul turists will be discussed, such as the relation of meteorology, entomology and other branches of soienoe, to ag riculture, farm economy, crop statis tics, actual and current, and others, which the occasion may suggest. Ar rangements have been effected with the railroads of the State by which delegates to the Convention can come and return for one fare. A full at tendance is desirable, in order that by a full aud free conference each co worker of the department may thor oughly understand and appreciate his relations to the people of the Slate as a source of valuable information. Much of the most efficient work of the Department has been based upon information collected from the intel ligent farmers who are its correspon dents and co-workers. It is, there fore, hoped thut, with this timely no tioe every correspondent and experi menter will attend the contemplated convention. Thomas P. Janes, Commissioner of Agriculture.

Alabama Insane Hospital.— The Fifteenth Annual Report of the Ala bama Insane Hospital, has been printed at the Meteor office, in the Hospital. The Tuskuloosa Gazette says: It. is an interesting pamphlet to study showing, in a tabular form, the numter of patients that have been admitted to tiie institution since 1861, the number discharged, died,etc., also the occupation, eduea cation, cause of insanity, etc. The number of patients and sex admitted to the hospital aud discharged there from since 1861 is as follows: Men Women Total Admitted -633 486 1,119 Disc’d recovered .. 193 153 346 Disc’d improved 48 39 87 Disc’d üßeh’ged 35 11 46 Died 180 108 279 Remaning 180 172 352 The statement shows that more persons with a limited education were in the hospital than in any other stage of learning; more persons be tween the ages of 30 and 40 years were insane than any other ages. More single men, and more married women. In form of insanity, more are placed under the head of acute mania than any other—next mono mania. Of occupations, more were farmers. Causes, most hereditary; fewest, old age. The report of the steward shows the expenditures for the year ending September 30, inclu ding improvements, salaries, wages, etc., to be $62,773.42. Of this sum $11,125 was received from paying pa tients. The Institution, under the manage ment of Dr. Bryee, is carried on as economically as it can possibly be to serve the noble purpose it is intended for. Much has been saved the Btate (and at the same time benefitted the health of the jiatientj by the farm carried on in connection with the asylum. The State Grange.- This impor tant body, representing the fanning interests of our noble State, bus been in session two days and will probably hold two days longer. The repre sentatives are among our best citi zens, and their deliberations,we have no doubt, will result in great good to the State at large.

Milwaukee,, Dec. 2.—The defense in the case of Taft & Weimer, intro duced a testimony designed to show that stamps could be removed from packages, and the figures represent ing tne number of gallons altered. Abode, a chemist and others swear that there are preparations by which ink can be removed from paper with out disfiguring. A keg of high wines that hod been stamped an hour be fore, was brought into Court and a man pulled out the tacks, removed the stamp, and took out the ink marks that had been made by the gauger.

New York, Dec. 2.—The mate had not got over fifteen or twenty feet, from the steamer with a life boat full of people before It was capslzod. -a terrible scene ensued. There must have been eighteen persons in the boat. The mate swam ashore, but others who were saved swam back to the steamer. In all probability all that were lost were drowned from cap sizing of the life boat. Their shouts and cries for aid must, have been heard a long distance. As quickly as possible, says the mate, I took the boat from the starboard, and with our head waiter and deck boy tried to get around the people in the water, but heavy ice prevented it. Cries for helpcontlnued üboutten minutes, then all was still. We launched tne big boat from the upper deck, which was even with the water, the vessel at that time being 200 feet from the shore. T took the boat with the second engineer, and finally reached the capsized boat. She was bottom upwards, and a man lay on his back, with his feet in the water aud ice. nearly dead. We took him on board the steamer, put him in the pilot’s room andoovered him with blankets. Then I heard more on the outside of the wheelhouse, which was only two feet out of the water, I worked the icetoithe spot where cries came from. I found an elderly lady groaning; she was lying on the ice about five feet from the wheelhouse; her body was hardly in the water; while her arms were holding her; up she was still alive. With great, difficulty wc got her in the boat, took her to the steamer, put her in the wheel-mates’ room, and covered her with blankets, but she died two hours after. Wo then went to work toconstruet a rope ferry from the steamer to the shore. At this time at least sixty persons were crowded together on tho hurri cane deck, aft. The wind was blow ing hard and the air was bitterly cold. Wo got, the line ashore and succeeded in getting all off in safety, after they had been on deck for two hours. Tiie mate hauled them In a boat and pulled the boat along by a rope. On reaching the shore, they clamhered up the rocks, and made way to farm houses in the vicinity, where every attention was given them. New York Item- New Y’ork, Deo. 2. —Another appli cation was made this morning for a writ, of error|in the case of the ne groes Weston, Thompson and Ellis, condemned to death for the murder of a polish peddler in Sydig’s woods, Westchester county, somejtlme ago. Decision was reserved A writ of error was also issued in the case of John Dolan, the con demned murderer of Noe. Decision on which was likewise reserved. The savings’ bank excitement has subsided. Business was quietly con ducted in the usual manner at ail the institutions to-day, and no further ex citement is apprehended. The weather greatly moderated to- j day, and the frigorifle wuvo which has continued for the last three days uppears to bo giving place to a m*>re moderate temperature. The ther mometer to-day was about fifteen de- j grees above zero. WpanUh Affair*. New York, Deo. 2.— A Herald spe-: cial per cable from Madrid says; The reply of Alfonso’s Government to the Washington Cabinet’s note goes to show that the Spanish Gov ernment is pledged to the work of a gradual emancipation of the slaves in Cuba-to a measure permitting a greater freedom of commerce with the Antilles'—to the guaranteeing to foreigners an immediate magisterial or judicial hearing in thone cases i where they have been arrested and j charged with a violation of the ■ Spanish colonial laws, and to a com plete measure of legal redress for acts formerly committed by Spain in moments of hastiness.
