New Work Dry Goods Market.

New YORK, October II.
The dry goods market opened very
quiet to-day and with but little to vary
the condition from the past three days.
The advance in cotton i'll Liverpool, re-
ported yesterday morning, had only a
temporary effect, the favorable influence
being neutralized by the decline i'll
gold. The season is growing late and
the autumn business may be considered
well over, and trade will, therefore,
naturally be quiet for some days. Blu
sincss has been very heavy, and stocks
of all kinds have been very much re-
duced, and tue larger portion sold en-
tirely up to production. This favOra-
BILE state Of affairs stimulates mapufac-
turers, end enables them to maintain o
very firm footing. This applies cspe-
cially to domestic cOttons. The market
fol- wooden goods is still oyer-stOcked
for all common goods, and large con-
cessions are made by holders to induce
buyers to take goods. The wool mar
ket is dull and decling, which favOrs
this reductions, and it is more than
probable that spring stocks of ready
made clothing will be made up at such
a reduction in cost as TO cause very
much increased demand.

Monetary Affairs.
NEM YORK. October


The Commercials money article says:
Speculation has not wholly recovered
from the check of Monday and ycSter-
day. This morning Erie, Michigan
Southern, Northwestern, preferred, and
Rock Island were lower. With these
exceptions the list showed an advance
upon the latest board sales of yesterday.
In Governments there was some contu-
sion in early transactions to London;
quotations for 5-2tIs being given at est.
This was explained, however, by the
fact that bends were quoted extra
coupon, after settling day, middle of the
month gained acceptance, and it waf
discovered that 5-20S, instead of being
lower, was really per cent. higher, un-
der which the price of bonds rose ! per
cent. Money is somewhat active; lend
ers find it easier TO get per cent, and
majority of Hcw transactions are proba-
bly, done at that rate. We hear, how
ever, of no calling in Of loans at lower
rates. A fair business is doing in dis
counts at 5a6 per cent. for prime names.
Foreign exchange quiet as usual on
Wednesday; rates are about the same as
Yesterday.

In Genoa there are regular marriage
brokers, who have pOcket-books filled
with the names of manageable girls of
the different classes, with notes of their
figures, personal attractions, fortunes,
and other circumstances. These brokers
go about endeavoring to arrange con-
nections in the same off-hand, mercan-
tile manner which they would bring to
bear upon merchandise transaction,
and when they succeed they get q com
mission of two or three, percent. upon
the portion, with such extras or bonuses
as may be voluntarily bestowed by the
party. Marriage at Genoa is thus often
times simply matter of business calcu-
lation, generally settled by the parents
or relations, who otter draw up the
contract before the parties have seen
one another; and il is only when every
thing else is arranged, and Il few days
previous to the marriage ceremony,
that the future husband is introduced
to his intended partner for life. SHOULD
he find fault with her manners or ap-
pearance, he may annul the contract,
on condition of defraying the broker
age and any other expenses incurred.

On Tuesday last, we received a call
from Mr.. Jordan ID. Rhodes, of Camden
township, in this county. He is one
hundred and four years Old, and LOOKS
Younger than many men who nave NOT
reached their threescore and ten: hls
parents were among abe founders OF
the first American colony, and he was
horn at jamestown. He has very
vivid recollection of the Revolutionary
war. and would have taken part IN II
had il not been that from his infancy
until he was near thirty years old, he
was in very poor health. He emigrated
to the West years ago, and ut each re,
curing birth day has looked around
him with wonder and amazement ut
the marvellous strides the country has
made. What pen can picture bis feel
iugs as he looks back to the days when
the thirteen colonies struck. the first
blow for the Independence we have en-
loved for over eighty years he mas
seen the miniature republic into which
he was ushered on his birthday morn,
grow from a handful of people standing
ON Plymouth Rock to the greatest gov
ernment ON the face of the globe. He
passed safely through the Revolutionary
struggle, and saw his country survive a
terrible internecine war. He has al
ways been very temperate in his habits,
eats whenever he is hungry, and occa-
sionally uses tobacco. He hauls rails,
and does other heavy outdoor work |;
he uses no cane in walking, and came
mn the stairs to our office in as short q
fna as would many who are not one
third as old. He has been married
twice, and is the father of nine child
rem. The strangest thing in reference
to this man is that he never enjoyed
very good health, but has always been
very feeble, and until he was near
thirty years old, he was almost as help
less as d child. He looks as though he
might live d number of years yet, and
we have no doubt he is the oldest man
in the west.

UNPRoFITABLE LITIGATIoN.-The Su-
preme Court of Erie county, New York,
has been occupied at Buffalo for three
days with very ridiculous case. For
the third time jury has been summon
ed for the trial of the case, which seems
to be interminable. The only question
involved is the title of little piece of
land i'll Newstead, the value of which is
not more than fifty dollars ut the ut
most. Each party claims to have the
fee simple, and the land has been SUI
veyed and resurveyed by dozen civil
engineers, no two of them arriving at
the same conclusions. Altogether it is
said the costs of litigation will amount
to over two Thousand dollars, but both
parties are determined to fight it ont on
this line, if it takes forever. The ac-
ton was begun in 1859, and has thus al
ready extended over seven years.

Horrible stnfistics-EngIishG Girls Sc
daced mt Five and Seven Years OF
,From the Pail Nall Gazette.J

The report of the Society for the Res
cue of Young Women and Children an
nounces that out of 53S cases of young
girls relieved by its officers 1865 had been
seduced before they were 16 years of
age and 1O6 before they were ~ years of
age. The report further states that
among the girls admitted to the asylum
last year, one was seduced at 5, another
at 7, five ut 8, seven at 8, twelve ut TO-,
seven at IL, 73 at II, 70 ut 10, 60 ut Ii,
and 80 at Is years of age. These
statistics are, indeed, so horrible
that before we receive them
as cospel we should like to know on
what authority they are put forth. If
we recollect right, the Marquis Town
shend talks leading part i'll the pro-
ceedings of the society from whose
report we are quoting, and our expert
ence leads us to entertain even Il higher
opinion of his lOr,lship's heart than of
of his head. Sensational statistics are
not unfrequently got up for the purpose
of relaxing the purse strings of the
credulous and tender hearted, and anna
BILE noblemen, like Lord Townshend, are
frequently utilized by the designing in
the same way. One of the very fattest
men we ever saw was an unpaid secrc-
tary to a philanthropical institution.

WORTH KNowING.-A young lady of
this city, while in the country, some
years ago, stepped on a rusty nail,
which ran through her foot. The in
flamation and pain were of course very
great, and lockjaw was apprehended.
4 friend of the family, however, recon-
mended the application of beet, taken
fresh from the garden and pounded fine,
to the wound. 1t was done, and the
effect was very beneficial. Soon the ill.,
tlammation began to subside, and by
keeping on the crushed beet, changing
for fresh one as its virtue seemed to
become impaired, a speedy cure was eff
fected. Simple but effectual remedies
like this should be known to every one.

NASHVILLE, October 16.-The rumor

they would contract with Cheatham "

The United States Attorney yesterday
received the following:
DEPARTMENT OF STATE,
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Oct. IL, lS66.
To the Attorney of the United States
for the Middle District of Tennessee:
SIR:-This department has received
information that measures are Ill pro-
gress for the purpose of inducing the
freedmen to move to foreign countries,
and especially to Pennsylvania, by
promise of high wages and other i'll
inducements. There is reason to be-
lieve that the promise will not he
performed and that the condition of the
freedmen would not, in most instances,
be improved by a change. 1t is deemed
to be the duty of the government to
prevent them, by all legal and moral
means, from being thus imposed upon.
This circular was addressed to you for
that purpose, and, with the assent efthe
Attorney General, You will do every
thing you can to see that it is carried
out. liam, sir, very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
