The Henate eummllteo on commerce yest*r? day considered aga.n tbe nomination o! Dr. W. 1>. ('rum, colored, to be collector of tbe port at Charleston, s. c. By a vote of 10 to I tbe committee decided to postpone action. Tbe Democrats voting for postponement were: Messrs Berry, Martin, Mel lory and Clay, Mr. Turner and Mr. Ve^t being absent. The Republicans for postponement were Messrs Depew, Elklns, Penrose, Perkins. Jones, of Nevada, and Nelson. One of the Kepublicans made tbe motion to postpone, irblcb Is regarded aa a further expression ol hope that tbe President will see bis way clear to withdraw tbe appointment. When Dr. Crnm was appointed poet master by President Harrison similar tact lea were followed by tbe puaU.ffloe oommlttee In refusing to report bli confirmation. If tbe President dec I (lea not to withdraw tbe nomination It will die with tbe seselon of Congresa, and thsn be can decide aa to tr better be wishes to Ti makes recess appointment.

Waste o(Cotton Seed in Planting. The South has m ver stopped to think ow much money la wasted In planting ach cotton crop Let us figure It out nd see. Upon a safe estimate not less turn 400,000 toiu of cotton seed are aed each spring li. planting. The seed i sown lavUihly In drills?not dropped t certain distances, as corn?and after tie plants are up tbe crop is thinned rlth a hoe, more than nlne-tentha of lie young plants being cut out. Here we Und that the seed used In lantlng the cotton crop would bring in be market at least 9S.400.000. As nlne?hi? < u'nxtmi we see here a otai waste of over Ave and one-half illllon dollars ($5,760,000.) It la time for the cotton growers of he South to call a halt to this exravagance. The old system of sowing otton seed In the drill Is it remnant of lie times when cotton seed was almost worthless. Since then their value has o much enhanced that a change should e made in the manner of planting. Intead of sowing the seed In drills drop hem at a distance wanted, and by filming this method not only the labor f thinning is saved, but nearly 400.000 on? of good cotton seed is saved for ommert lal use. and the farrmro of the outh are Ave million dollars richer. jTbe Caldwell Cotton Planter saves he seed plants and gives good stand Mth one peck to acre, saves enough eed to pay for Itself In one season, nquirc for It.
