Carl Bchurz arrived in this city on yesterday afternoon, direct fron Grenuwich, Conu., and was given a .lppllmentary dinner by a number o his German friends at the St. Charlei i1otel. The party was Informal an included a number of gentlemen of al parties, while hundreds of citizeni called in the course of the day to pay their respects to the distinguished visi. tor. In the evening ho addressed an audi. enee of fully 10,000 people at Schlitz Park, one of the most delightful sum mer gardens in the Vest. Mr. Her. man Sigel, editor of the Freie Presse, the German Republican paper whicli bolted Blaine the day after he was nominated, was president of the meot ing. Mr. .churz's appearance on the stage was the signal for applause that lasted ten or fifteen minutes. As soon as quiet was restored he briefly stated the clrcunstances that caused him to visit the city. Theit he stated at some length his exact position in the present canvass and his objections to Mr. Blaine. lie reiterate'd many of the telling points which he made in his Brooklyn speech and every point he made was responded to by the hearti est applause. At the conclusion of his address Ar. Schurz was warmly con gratulated. H1is speech was frequently Interrupted by applause and its effect on the audience was most magical. At a late hour the large gathering dis persed. The meeting was altogether one of the finest ever held in the city. This afternoon Mr. Schurz will leave for La Crosse, in which he will speak to-morrow evening. He will return to Milwaukee early on Tuesday and on the same evening will deliver an address at the West Side Turner Hall, in E'nglish, under the auspices of the English Independent Republicans. This meeting will be presided over by John P. McGregor, one of the most prominent Republicans in Wisconsin, who recently bolted Mr. Blaine and is now working like a beaver for Mr. Cleveland's election. The number of Independents in Mil waukee alone is variously estimated at from 3,000 to 5,000. This class coin prises local Republican "kickers." They must be considered entirely apart f"om those who have been driven in the Democratic ranks body and breeches. John P. McGregor said to da.hat it was hard to give an esti rhate of the strength of the Independ ents. There were mnany who had secretly resolved to support Cleveland who would not avow their intention orenly. Another leading Independent, of German extraction, said that 5,000 would not be too high an estimate to place on the Independent votes of Mil waukee. There are very few of this number who will not vote the Repub lican State ticket, but they will scratch Blalue for Cleveland. It was announc ed at the meeting to-night that Judge Cole, of the Snpreme Court, and Judge Stewart, a prominent Republican, had just announiced their intentioni of bolting and voting for Cleveland and Hendricks. The Situation in Michigan. CmcAoo, September 10.-The situa tion in Michigan is very interesting, both from a State and a inational point of view. Thero is every p)robabilit y that twvelve of the thirteen electoral votes of Michigan will be lost to Mr. Blaine, anmd that the State election will go against the Republican)s. In their recent State conventions the D)emo eratic and Greenback parties formed a very harmonious union, and p)laced in the field an electoral anid State ticket. The unioni upon0 the electoral ticket is unique, It is suppiosed to be after the planm suggested by General Butler; but hiIs letter suggests no definite plan, and it is in truth original with Michti gant.

CINcINNATI, OwO, September 10., United States Senator lumb, of Kan sas, hiascomne to Ohio to take p)art in the campaignm, amid was to-day registered at the Gibson House, in this city. Inm an interview lie said: "There is much depending on the result of' the October electioni in Ohio. I fear' that there is too much confidence. Old-time Re publicans say that the State has always been Repubtllican1 in P'residential years, st'nnever be otherwise. Content inmg th Im,eves with this feeling they do not orfr nle. Many~ of these Re p)ublicanms a~ like [indians; they like to hold a coui:i '1 and do a 'heal) talkeec' but forget to org., nize. I antmnt coni fident about this ate, but I am not alarmed." "liut the news frn m Maine is cheer Iing." "Yes, buit I am af -aid that it will (10 harm by creatingi p otrc confidence; it may encourage, bi it mtay encourage the wvrong way.

"O,we had( me little pri'blitioni trouble there o e, but it was withtin the Itepublica party. We are all right now anu will give Blaine 60,000 anajority." "Hlow abou Iowa?" "She will nct t do as well as in 1880, because of the local p)rohibitiont troui bles." "And WVisconsini?" "Both Wisconsiin and Michigan are doubtful States this time. I am afraid of the result in cacti." "Cant their loss be overcome by the gain of anv Southern States?" "No; I havo no - faith in carrying West Viirginia. Senator Kenina thInks the D)emocrats will carry it by 12,000; I think about 5,000--perhaps more." "Then theo Repubiican hopse is in New York and Ohio r" "That's about it." A prominent Republican, speaking of Senator Plumb's cautious statement' as to the outlook, remarked that in so doing the Senator was following the lead of the Blaine mnanatgers, whose policy is to arouse the Replublicams with a healthful Ibar and lull thme Dem ocrate with confidence. *Demoerats Not Denjected ini Maine.

"They had the mons, and we di not;- they had all sthe money the wanted, while we have had to light th campaign without sufficient funds t get our absent voters home." "Are there any other causes of you failure of an election?" "We have badly lacked an. efficlen organization."

The National Capital in a Blazeo of Pyro technica--The Democrats of the District of Columbia Ratify the Nomination. WASIINGTON, September 11.-The Democracy of the District of Colum bia ratified the nomination of Cleve land and Hendricks by a grand open air demonstration to-night. The street parade of local Democratic organiza tions, and Democratic clubs from the country meeting on the plaza in front of the City Hall, speeches from men prominent in Democratic ranks, and the adoption of resolutions expressive of the loyalty of the Democrats of the district to the standard-bearers of the party, constituted the important fea tures of the ratification. Electric liglits, i grand display of fireworks, music, flags, and the boominig of cannon, were accompaniments. The procession was headed by the Jackson Democratic Association, the oldest Democratic organization ill the district, and following came four divisions composed of the District clubs and visiting organizations from Virginin and Maryland. It is 'estimated that i5,000 torches were in line, and tihe tranlsparenlcies abounded, bearing significant in scrip tionis. As the line turned into the Avenue and Fifteenth street thousands of rockets, bombs and Roman candles were set off anid at intervals cannon, driawn by horses, boomed heavily. The sidewalk along the line of march were packed with a moving mass of huimanity and the colored po>pulation of the District turned out in force to view the p)rocessionl. Pennsylvania Aveiiue, during the p)rogress of the procession, presented a scene of rarec miagniificence. Powerful electric lights, enclosed in reflectors, at the capitol andi treasury, and scores of smnaller electric lights along the line of march ploured floods of light npon01 a sea of fire of thousands of torches. Th'le meeting proper wvas held dlirect ly ill front of the City IIall and the large plaza was palcked vith a denise gathering, lnmberinIg many thous iands, who weire addriiessedl from three stands simultaneously. Tihe p)rincipal stanid, erected on1 tile portioni of the City IIall and just behind the Lincoiln statue, was magnificently decorated with niationai~l emblems, and~ 1portraits of tile canid(ates, the flags of all na ions being prominently displayed. The electric light, Cinose lanterns and1( gas made the scone as brilliant as (day. On tile p)rincip~al stand were the leaders of tile District Democracy anid eminient Democrats from abroad. Among them were several members of Congress.

'4 WAsuiNxTwN, September 9.-The pepiwrhnent of Agriculture reports the comltloi of cotton on the 1st of Sep tember lower than ont August 1st, by reasou of drought, which has been , severest in Texas yet felt in every btat0 East and N;rth to North Caro r lina. The apprehension that the too succulent ,early growth would wilth t wilt under the high temp( -ture and , the absence of rain has br 1 realized a too generally. Local + on the - Atlantic coast appear to have had suf '*lent moisture, at a few points too mlbc, on the lowlands. The effect of ' r thesometeorological changes has been E a wide prevalence of rust and shed- ( ding of leaves and young bolls. In ' light soils fruiting will be hastened, a top bolls already forming. In those r of greater moisture there is a strong in weed and with deferred frosts a good c crop may be made. There are few t [ losses by the caterpillar. When it has s appeared it was promptly met by a 3 poisonous applications. As a rule the t boll worm has been more abundant I I than usual and has not had treatment li sufliciently prompt. The average con- c dition for the whole field, which was 1 t 7 in the preceding report, is reduced z to 82a, thouf h Texrs is the only State r below that average. The only years i of the preceding tetn having lower t averagcs in September were 1874, o when it was three and a half points t lower, 1881, when the average was c only 70,.and last year, when it was 74. 1 The weather of the next three months 1 may modify for better or worse the e actual result of the harvest. The t State averages are: Virginia 89, Noth Carolina 90, South Carolina 87, Geor- '1 gtia 86, Florida 88, Alabama 81, Missis- n sippi 83, Louisiana 84, Texas 72, Ar- b kansas 83, Tennessee 90. 1i The product of winter wheat is a abovd the average and is generally of h goo ( quality, except where injured by a sprouting in the shock- The rate of ti the yield is not, far from an average of ti thirteen bushels per acre. The results I of the harvest of spring wheat are not ' yet complete and the product cannot p be precisely indicated. It is probable, o from the reported condition of the r, crop already harvested and the shed, C that the agregate will vary little from ? five lndred millions bushels. Re- n ports of much higher figures are sen- t< sational and misleading and utterly a unworthy of credence. The general a average of condition when harvested iY was 98, against 83 last year. The cun-. d dition is almost identical with that d reported in September, 1878-the con- ca sus crop, which yielded thirteen bush- ai els per acre. The wheat States of d -highest condition are California, Wis- b consin, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Ken- y tucky, Tennessee and Oregon. These, si with some of minor production, show w figures higher than the general aver- al age. Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas o stand at 98, Ohio and Michigan 96, u Indiana 94, Illinois 80. The Eastern cl and Southern States range from 81 in it Mississippi to 103 in Maine. The corn crop is in better condition of than in any September since 1880. The of general average is 94. It was 84 last 01 September, 83 in 1882 and 60 in 1881. w It promises to produce an average Tp yield of 26 bushels for the entire - breadth, or not less than 1,800,000,000 D bushels. It will make the largest an- ai gregato of quantity ever reportel in tc the liistory of the crop-). T~he oats crop averages a yield per li acre about the same as corn and makes g the aggregate exceeding 500,000,000 e bushels. Its condition when harvested p was 95, wvhich is lower than for the a two previous years but higher than for tI p)rior years since 1878. a Barley averages 97, against 100 last c4 year and 95 in 1882. It will average w about 22 bushels per' acre. T1hie general average of rve is 96 and i for. buckwheat 93. which'indicates a la medium crop of about 12 bushels per oj acre.i T1he condition of p)otatoes averages a 91, against 95 last year. it will be an abunidaunt crop, bult not so large as the Ii last. T1hiere is some coinpllaint of rot ci in New England and a little in New al York. There is a widte range of con- y dlition, down to 62 in Ohio while it is iv 94 in Michigan, the same in Pnnsl II vantia and 86 in New York. There~is al a fine crop wvest of the Mississippi. a '['le condition of tobacco is higher S thtan in September of any year sincep 1877. it averages 94, inistead of 80 p last Septemnber - Massachusetts 105, 8 Conmnecticut 103, Newv York 98, Penn- r sylvania 99, Wisconsin 100.

Ho minutely detailed everything connected with the horrible deed, and now stands prepared to meet hils fate. The fact of his con fession Is unknown to the people o1 Savannah at the present writing, bti when it becomes known Bateman will probably be lynched. In his confes. sion Bateman says that he was honu when the girls came there. He sass them go into-the woods4.o pick haze) nuts and followed them fifteen minutec afterwards. They were near the eii of a corn-field when he came up witl them. While he was talking he saw Ienry Knappenberger pass. Ile thei induced the children to go further intt the corn-field, and while the eldest was vyalking. in front of hina he shot her She tprned around and as' she, did st lie shot her again, killing her instant ly. The other girl then started to run but he followed and caught her. Sha begged so hard for him to let her g that he came very near allowing hi to do so. Ie did let go of her, bu knowing she would tell he agail caught her, threw her down and en her throat. It .was fifteen or twent ininutes after Knapponberger passei that he shot tlt^ eldest girl. Afte killing the younger girl he" went bacl to his first victim and outraged liei peisoi, after which he mutilated lie so as to create the impression that i was the deed of a crazy man. Th eldest girl said nothing after he sho her, but the other girl cried out amd lie held his hand over her motith t( prev'ent her being hoard. After thesa horrible occurrences he -went to th creek, washed his hands, threw li: knife into the stream and then wel home. When the father of the girl cane to his house inquiring for hiini h oflered to go and help search for them but his relatives would not allow him as they thought lie was ill. The fien< declares that he was induced to coin fess owing to the circumstantial inanne in which Henry Knappenherger ha< been accused of the crime. "A Single Fact iN Worth a Ship.Lonu of Argunent."
