SECOND LETTER FROM ERE CRES- CENT CITY.

Cotton Industry of New Orleans. Sin,—The cotton industry is such a lead- ing feature of the commercial life of New; Orleans, that few visitorscan pass even & | short time here without a bet er knowledge ‘than they bad before of this staple, which ‘through so many great manufaciuring cen- itres finds its way to the trade marts of the | world, assuming every form that ingenious fabrication can invent, and at Jast, after serving its varied uses, to every form of | uti ity and decoration, renewing its life for ‘the perpetuation of thought by publishers, ‘of iutercommunication through the mails, | land as wrapping for everything, every- !where and by everybody. The Kingdom of | Cotton is limited only by the bounds of civ- lil zation, for the truit of the loom is in levery market of this cotlon-loving wwild | to supply clothing and comfort to its teem- ling miliions. Atter arriving here, 1 went ‘in search of some facts, and at the best sourees of supply informed myself of what was going on just now in the cotton in- ‘dustry of this, the crescent shaped city of the Father of Waters, About eight weeks lot the cotton season has passed, and the 'South’s leading crop has been coming in with unprecedented rapidity. The weather, | however, has not been favorable for pick- ling, but like all great crops that depend on {rapid gathering, and labor saving, cotton is ‘likely to have its share of economic ma- jchinery. The result of one has just been exhibited at Memphis, Tenu., that will in the near future dispense with hand picking on the larger plantationsaltogether, for it does the work of seventeen hand pickers,—and, too, does it cleaner and bet- ter. The bale on exhibition at Memphis: weighed 475 lbs., and was picked by the machine in two hours, in the rain, and got valued at a half cent per lb. more than if the same cotton had been hand picked. There seems to be coming to this industry an ever enlarging prosperity. Last year gave a gladsome season to the planters, aad a satisfactory feeling pervaded all the involved interest of this fibre-plant. This year ({ learn from the local Cotton Ex- change, Mr. Hester being the figurist) that up to Gate 2,130,987 bales, averaging 500 ‘}bs., have come to light, which in pounds represents 1,065,493 500, or about 9 pound for every inhabitant of our globe. Up to date the amount of the crop exported ag- gregates 1,021,152 bales, and this shows that foreign consumers have taken 138,564 bales more than last season, and the American spinners have already ab- sorbed 59,243 bales more than last years But the best evidence of pros- perity lies in the fact that notwithstanding the swelling proportions of cotton produc- tion, it rules a quarter of acent higher than a year ago. Perhaps some of your readers may have heard of Morse’s patent cotton bale compressor, but I think very few of them have seen one in actual operation. Thefone.! visited was cast at Reading, Pa., and has a bale squeezing power of over five million pounds, Lt is a ponderous machine, placed in front compartment of a cotton warehouse close to the Levee, and is run by Messrs. Boyd & Herrick. I was very politely received by Mr. Vincent, in charge of the work. From him I learned that there were some fifteen presses run- ning in New Orleans, and that the output of this one was from 1,000 to1,200 bales per diem. He estimated theoutput of the fifteen presses during one cotton season at between 600,000 and 790,000 bales. You must re- member that New Orleans is the largest cotton market in the United States for this staple as it comes from the field, but that Liverpool is the greatest cotton receiver 1n the world. While talking with Mr. Vin- cent, there was the sound ofja rush—it was from the hands dropping into their places. Bales as they came from the plantations were there to be stripped of their hooping and run under the squeezer, which was like a huge cider press, and then the power made a difference of more than one-half in their thickness—with a sort of whistling sound as the air made its sudden escape. There were four men on each side and two nimble-fingered boys at each end. As the bale attained its greatest shrinkage, a chorus was sprung by the men, and in a twinkling it was re-strapped and the ends sewed up,

The machine re-

the strapping trimmed with shears, and bousted on to a dray. Thus a bale was stripped, placed in the press, squeezed, re- strapped, the ends sewed up, released, hauled out, clipped and I-aucs ready for carrying away, in the brief space of one minute. Now when that press (as it does when overtime is required) turns out twelve hundred bales fur its day's work, it will be evident that there is no time lost, aad that human endurance is tried to the ut. most. Br. Vincent told me_ that the German people alone can stand it. After I had looked and wondered, and won- dered and looked at this marvel of human ingenuity long enough, I was handed over to another gentleman (Mr. W. G. Turner) who would explain his department work. He first told me about grading and the sys- tem of marks and numbers, by which a bale of cottun turning out otherwise than as represented, or otherwise faulty, can be i traced right back to the growers, no matter in what part of the world such a discovery might be made. He showed me the mode of sampling by which balesare sold,andthrough which market values are determined; and then took me to a little lot of three bales (a sample of which I enclse), which he said was raised in Tennessee aud had been graded as 19 cent cotton. You may not fperhaps realize this very high figure without some point of comparison, so 1 will

MR. BAGSTER’S|

quote yesterday's figures at the Cotton Ex- change :

When Mr. Turner had shewn me through the storage compartments and explained a variety of thiogs, I had no idea belonged to the business, he invited me to go aboard a vessel they were loading, and see the men loadiug compressed cotton. It was an iron steamers loading for Liverpool, of very large propor- tions, and as we etood by the main hatch, there were acres of cotton without an inch to spare between them, and harder than when they left the Morse Press, for they had means of pressure in the hold that forced the cotton into a still smaller compass. Mr. Turner said we have one advantage here over the old woolen cratt that formally took away our cotton, the iron ship makes no bilge water, so that we can lay a floor of grain aud build up the cotton upon it, The wages that these scrcw men (loaders) get is six dollarsa day, and as they are a ‘‘union” no sailor is allowed to help them, for if any captain attempted to utilize his crew, the vessel is boycotted in a minute, and the vessel pays its piper by beiag delayed.

I forgot to say that the press hands are all experts and get 10 cents per bale, cquivalent to 10 cents per minute while at work, and this they divide among themselves, so that they mike $6 per hour, and if the gang num- bers 20, they make 30 cents an hour each, and richly deserve it teo.

C. B, Baesrek, — 9 2 Oo Oe —__—__ "> That Bear Siory.

Sir, —There appesred in a recent issue of the Guardian an account cf how four St. Peter's Bay boys vanquished a couple of bears. ‘These mighty Nimrods have meandered somewhat in their glowing des- criptiuon of the encounter in question which happened in this way : On the even- ing of Oct. 9th, a farmer of Cable Head, whom bruin had kindly relieved of a nice fat sheep, prepared near aspot where his bearship had been holding high carnival on the previous night atrap-gun. Later on, our hunters with all their war-like accout- rements appeared on the scene and pro- ceeded to erect a stage. Some evil-minded persons contend that the heroes showed cowardice in this. It does seem indicative of timidity that the heroes, armed with double-barreled shotguns, and having plenty of ammunition should consider the building of a stage necessary for protection against a defenceless bear or two, but may- hap they feared chiils or grippe if they re- mained on the ground. One bear suffered death for his partiality to matton, but not wholly at the hands of the four. He (the bear) came and rashly caught the bait attached by aline to the trap-gun which went off and carried away half of bruin’s right jaw, as several teeth, pieces of bone and blood found on the spot conclusively prove, Immediately after, the bear, doubt- less preferring death in his maimed con- dition, wandered within range of that terrible stage. The first broadside there- from missed him, but the second finished him. Regarding the mortally wounded bear, he existed only in the disordered imaginations of Hayden & Co., who re- mained on their aerial pirch until dawn dispelled the shades of night and permitted the valiant fellows to descend to terra firma with perfect safety and to gloat over the remains of the defunct bear, now cold in the embrace of jdeath.

The marketable parts of the dead sheep eater, viz., its skin and fat were taken possession of by the inventor of the trap- gun and placed to the dead bear's credit in his mutton account.

J USTICE,

St. Peter’s Bay, Nov. 3rd, 1890,

A Boy ata Man's Work.

A Syracuse, N. Y., despatch of the 3rd says: An accident occurred on the Dela- ware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad at Rock Cut, three miles south of this city, at 5.40 p. m., through the efliciousness of a boy telegraph operator, M. A. Clark, and resulted in the death of four persons and thefinjury of many others,together with the destruction of several thousand doljars worth of rolling stock, The day express from the soath passes Rock Cut at the rate of about 40 miles an hour. Before the ex- press was due a coal train from Syracuse ran in on the switch. The headlight of the express engine,came into view. It flashed through Clark’s mind that the switch was open and if not closed the express would dash into the coal train. He rushed to the switch, swung it over and then realized his mistake. As the switch turned the express swung on the side track and crashed into the coal train. The fireman and engineer of each engine were caught in the wreck and ground to death. All the passengers were badly shaken up, but only one was injured seriously.

A FEW DAYs AGO an American, travelling n the interest of Ferry, Seedsman, was over- heard tosay thae he could seldom or ever find celery on the cougtry table, and he wondered that the Island people did not use more of this king of vegetables. He was, at the same

ime, censuring his landlady for not providing some for dinner. The American appetite for selery ison the increase. lt has become a aecessity, notaluxury, with them, and they will have it at any cost, 25 cents not aoe an unusual price for one stalk. But with celery as cheap as Gay & Son are selling it, there is no reason why it should not be on every table. Chey have something extra this fall in the celery line—so good that they are offering a sample bunch for 5 cents, and will guarantee to supply the same for winter storing. The flavor of our late celery is ‘‘ away ahead” of iny we have yet sold this fall. Celery for storing, 30 to 40 cents per dozen, Orders taken at our Stalls, Market House, Charlotte- town. Orders from a distance securely acked, and will be received in good condition or winter keeping. Address J. J. Gay & Sox, Pownal,
