NEW ORLEANS, April 3.-CorToN-To-day the mar
ket has been dull and inactive from the opening to the
close Of business The still more unfayorabe character
of tho advices which came to hand from Liverpool IN
connection with the declining tendency of the New York
MARKET materially contributed to the general depression
The supply WIZ sufficient to meet ordinary
but the greenr portion Of the buyers were decidedly
ayerse to OF rating unless influenced to do 20 by more
liberal ss on the part of holders than the latter
were disposed to grant Hence the sales have been
strcted anountngat the close TO barely 1900 baes-ia
clding 1900 by broterat irregular but lower
prices the market closing too unsettled to admit OF
definite quotations which we accordingly prstermit Six
brokers participated in the business The demand at
present seems to be confined to the higher descriptions
Which are rather scarce IN the market.

The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1867-01-09

From the Winchester (Tenn.) Home Journal.
MANY wears ago the Legislature Of Ten
nessee passed an act to organize the county
of McNairy, alias Snake. At that time
the country embraced in the limits OF
Snake was occupied by sturdy set OF
back woodsmen, totally unacquainted with
courts, iails, etc. The county assembled
at the appointed site for the purpose OF
cutting logs, making boards, etc., to build
a courthouse and Jail. The only theme
of daily conversation, when the men were
assembled, was the court, etc. None OF
them had ever seen a court in session, rs
vet developed. Each one would give what
his idea was Of a court, etc. None, how
ever, were entirely satisfactory, until Bill
Simpson was called on TO give his ideas.
He said he knew all about a court-that
he had had lawsuit in North Carolina. One
of his neighbours hogs kept coming whefe
he fed his hogs until itgot lat. One morn
ing he got so Id mad that he Shot the
hog. He thought il would not do to throw
it away, so he c.eaned and sailed it. Shortly
after, his neighbor and man came to his
house, examined the smoke-house, and
took him to town and put him in d little
office.
About three months after that this man
came and took him up to large room. A
large man sat upona high bench q man
was sitting at a desk; about q dozen fine
dressed men sat in place that was paled
around. The man put in a pen just be-
hind them. He then called in twelve men
they took seats in box in front of the
fine dressed men. The man that was wri-
ting gave the twelve men book and said
something about Bill Simpson and the
State. Then one of the five men said some
thing about Bill Simpson and the hog,
and he and another one Of the fine-dressed
men had the biggest quarrel you ever
heard. / thought they would fight every
minute, but they didn't. 1t was Bill Simp
son and the hog, and the hog and Bill
Simpson, and sometimes Mr.. Simpson, but
id seldom. After they quit quarreliug,
the big man talked awhile to the twelve
men, and they went out and staid short
time, and then came back and said some
thing to the man at the desk. Then the
man on the bench said something to the
man that put me in Office, and he took me
out and tied me to a persmmon tree and
commenced fighting me with cowhide,
and it made me so id mad that | shook
all the persimmons off the tree.
