IN THE COTTON BELT.
Being Rapidly Picked Out and
Being Hastened to the Market.
Texas Situation an Unknown
Quantity.
There is little change to be
noted in the condition of cotton
in the fields, except that reports
agree as to the unusual rapidity
with which it is opening, being
picked and marketed. The ex
tent of damage to cotton by the
Texas storm has not been deli
% nilely ascertained, nor is it likely
that it will be as long as the
impression can be fostered that
it was enough to reduce the yield
in that state by hundred.8 of
thousands of bales.
Insects continue to damage
the crop in Louisiana and Texas, i
A fair summary of the yield is i
that the Atlantic States are very 1
short; the Gulf States will make
nearly average crops, while west 1
of the Mississippi the indicated 1
are the best ever known except t
for Arkansas which will make i
less than an average crop. ]
In North Carolina many cor- t
respondents say that cotton is i
three fourths open, some that all 1
is open, and as picking is pro ]
greasing rapidly everywhere, the <
entire crop will be gathered by ?
the end of October, if not earlier. 1
In South Carolina cotton con 5
tinues to open rapidly, and near- <
ly all is now open, but the rains 1
will tend to check premature <
opening, and to ^increase the size 1
of immature bolls. In places the 1
plants are again blooming, and
some report a small top crop, i
but generally the top crop is un- t
promising. The weather favored 1
rapid picking, and about halt the i
crop is gathered. The rains t
damaged open cotton slightly. (
Correspondents estimate the i
yield this year at about halt' an v
average crop. Sea island shows i
slight improvement, but is blooming
to the top and the plants are
dwarfed. r
In Georgia the protracted ?
drought was broken on the 13th <
and 14th by general, and in most f
cases heavy rains, which came c
too late to be of benefit to cotton t
or corn, both of which are too far
advanced to be improved. Cotton, s
which is mostly open in the mid r
die and southern counties, has i
been damaged considerably in
some sections. Most of the week ?
picking progressed uninterrupt E
edly and large quantities of the n
staple were picked and marketed, n
There are some complaints of H
boll worms. In the middle and
southern divisions about all the
cotton is picked.
In Florida showers retarded
cotton picking, haying, and har- (
vesting corn, particularly in t
western counties. The yield of
cotton shows no favorable change, it
and the crop will be short, as r
previously indicated. t:
In Alabama excessive rains in b
the southern, central and north fi
central portions damaged cotton 1
very much. The bulk of the cot- 3
ton is open and about one half r
of it has been picked. The crop f
is being marketed rapidly. Pre- s
vious estimates of light yields s
are confirmed as picking pro c
greases. h
In Mississippi there has been p
no improvement in the condition
of cotton. Rust and boll worms
are still doing considerable damage
in some localities. Upland \
cotton is nearly all open and the I
top crop will be very short The 1
weather has generally been fa- ,

In Louisiana cotton was not .
njuroa to any groat extent by
ho storm, as the very high
,vinds and excessive rains did
lot extend over the portions of
;ho State where that staple is
he principal crop. On the contrary,
as before stated, droughty
conditions prevail over northern
Louisiana and rain is needid
in many localities in the con
;ral parishes. The oldest cotton
las stopped growing and is
ihedding and drying up, but
foung cotton is still making
;ruit and reports indicate that a
>otter feeling exists regarding
he final output. Cotton pickng
is in rapid progress.
In Tennessee cotton is opening
fast and picking is now in
full progress ; the crop promises
to be quite short.
In Texas fair and favorable
weather now prevails, but cotion

Mid 9th. The crop was completely
destroyed in the path of

xnd it was damaged in the central
and north portions. The
plants were blown down ; much
cotton blown out reducing the
juantity and staining and otherwise
damaging the staple. Outside
of the storm area cotton is
loing very well, except that
worms and other pests are
loing damage in some localities.
Picking is being rushed but the
abor is scarce in some localities
In Arkansas cotton is opening
apidly under the influence of
lie hot and dry weather which,
lowever, has now given way to
riore favorable conditions, and
lie greater part of the crop is
ipen in some localities. Pick

In Oklahoma and Indian Territory
the cotton picking progressed
under favorable coalitions,
and the crop is being
generally marketed ; it has

fairly good.
In Missouri cotton in the
outheastern counties is opening <
apidly and picking is progressng
well.

A Sensational Trial.
Wrightsville, Ga.. Sept. 21.?
Jerry Walden, a young white man,
was this morning convicted of the
murder of Georgo Dixon and sen j
tenced to lite imprisonment. Mrs.
Dixon, wife ot the deeeased and
paramour of Walden, who was to
have been put on trial today as
a prir.cipal in the same crime,
made a sensational escape from
eustoday net ween midnight and
daylight this morning. She was
in the charge of Sheriff Rowland,
who iocKed her in a room on the
top floor of the court house.
There was only one key to the
rloor of the room and that key
was in the sherifFs pocket. Upon
locking her in, shortly before
midnight, the sheriff sat down in
a chair in front of the door. He
fell asleep, according to his story,
and when he awoke the woman
was gone ; but the key was still
in his pocket. When the matter
was reported to the court the
judge ordered the grand jury to
tnake a rigid investigation of the
escape. A man named Hi.son,
a brother in-law of Mrs. Dixon, is
known to have been thero or
ibout the top floor of the court
house with whiskey during tho
night. A report was current during
tho forenoon that Mrs. Dixon
had been caught and lynched.
This was not correct. 8he was recaptured
at tho house of her
brother in-law and returned to
jail. Her trial will come up to
morrow.

3 two doors north of the postofllceon the
eest side of Main street; our little
store has Krown to be a very popular
place of business, and it affords us
much pleasure to say that our trade
is rapidly increasing every day?and
I why? the reason is plain enough:
In the tlrat place, we treat our cus- ~
tomers politely ; secondly, we buy our
goods for the hard cash, save all the
discounts, and share the benefits with
our customers; thirdly, our place of
business is small, and in this way we
jj always ?ell you nice, new goods;
fourthly, we make prices that make
customers; we prefer a small profit
from many rather than a large profit,
from a few. Kvery day our trade increases;
