Regarding the cotton market you will
observe that prices continue firm. 1t is
quite clear that bu, for the pressure for mo-
ney which has prevailed throughout the
year prices would have reached an extra
ordinary height. In view Of The fact that
there is no chance Of cheap money for
long time to come, a further rise eau hard
ly be expected. Most probably indeed the
action of The Bank yesterday will have al
ready caused decline, but on this point
your information will be gathered from

tent, sitting plump on the ground with a
camp kettle belween his less-and with

splashiug ofhis garment in the suds. The
old General, by the way, wholly excludes
hard soap, as an unsoldier like luxury,
aud uses nothing but the soft; barrel oil
which furnishes part Of his tent furniture.
The old hero, however, OIL account of
his eye sight, isnQlyery nimble with the
needle. Nevertheless, he insists upun do
ing his own mendiug, and particularly
prides himself upongthe nealness aud expe~
dilon with which he puts new seat in
his ample pants. These neither garments,
of course, require frequent repairs, owing
to the constant practice aud The habit the
old hero has Of violsnlly slapPins his per-
