: CBosToN Wool MARKET.-There IS

N (BosToN Wool MARKET.-There Is
a very quiet feeling in the wool mark
ct, with but few large buyers opera
ting to any extent. Manufacturers are
mostly engaged in changing their ma
chinery to the production OF spring
goods, ana the actual consumption OF
wool is therefore quite moderate. for
the time being. Fall goods are in
ample supply, and the seasonable de-
mand for some descriptions is not
quite up to their expectations. Hence
there is a general stocking up on the
production, and raw material for lm-
mediate use is much wanted.
Besides, many Of our principal
wooden N i Is are largely stocked
ahead, and hence not disposed to meet
the increasing pretentions OF sellers.
The position of the latter has more
over, been considerably weakened by
the sharp decline in gold, which, in
view of the low prices now ruling in
Europe and South America, have IN
spired importers with fresh courage
and started up quite brisk inquiry
among consumers for fine foreign sta
plies. But wool prices here are not
yet quite nigh enough to warrant any
considerable movement In the latter.
The domestic article is still relatively
cheap and desirable for most manu-
featuring purposes.
The late pinch in the money mark
ct mas also operated adversely to the
wool trade, as might naturally be eX-
peCted with consumers carrying large
stocks both of raw material and man
ufactured products. But holders Of
wool, on the other hand, are more
anxious to sell and this combination
of depressing causes has given buyers
a little advantage on the No. l and
extra grades, which are the most abun
dant, as we'll as the least wanted fol
present use. The low and medium
grades of domestic fleece are sold very
close up, and transactions i'll these are
restricted for want of stocks.
Double extra and choice selected
heeces are in very moderate supply
and mostly held above the presen
views Of buyers. Desirable grade OF
pulled wool are scarce, the late heav,
sales having cleared the market Of
everything except shearlings ant
short stapled lots. COmbing wool
, are also very scarce, and wanted a
extreme rates. California continue
in good demand, and is taken as fas
as received. In foreign there is
better feeling and inquiry, but n
. large transactions to note as yet.
Sales of domestic for the week hav
been fair, and foot up about 10000
lbs. at a range of "A to 50 for feec
, and 43 TO SO for the various grade
! of pulled. Including are 10000 lbs

TRUE CHRISTIAN LIFE.-Did holy
| life consist of one or two noble deeds
some signal specimens of doing, or
enduring, or Sufering-we might ac-
count for the failure, or reckon it
small diShonOr to turn back in such a
conflict But a holy life is made up
of small things. 1t is the little things
of the hour, and not the great things
OF the age. that fill up a life like that
of Paul or John like that of Ruther-
ford, or Brainard, or Martyr. Little
words, not eloquent speeches nor ser
mons; little deeds, not miracles, nor
battles, nor one great heroic act or
mighty marty make up the true
Christian life. The little constant
sunbeam, not the lightning; the wa
tiers Of Shiloah, that go softly in
their meek mission of refreshment
not the waters Of torrent, noise and
force, are the true symbols of a holy
life.
The avoidance Of little evils, little
sins, little inconsistencies, little weak
nesses, little foIlies, little indiscretionS
and imprudenceS, little foibles, little
indulgences of self and of the flesh,
little acts of Incidence or indeci5ion,
or slOvenliness or cOwardice, little
equivocations or alterations from
high integrity, little touches of shah.
bineSs and meanness, little bits ofcov-
etOusness and penuriouSneSs, little ex-
: hlbitions of worldliness and gayety
/ little indifferences to the feelings or
wishes of others, outbreaks of temper
or crossness, or selishness, or vanity
: the avoidance of such little things as
2 these goes far to make up at least the
negative beauty Of holy life. And
t then attention to the little duties of
5 the day and hour, in public transac
5 tiops, or private dealings, or family
; arrangements to little works, anc
: looks, and tones; little benevolences
5 or Performances, or tenderneSSes lit
: tie self-denialS, and self-restraints, anC
self-forgetfulness; little plans of kind
ness and thoughtful consideration foI
others; to punctuality, and method
O and true aim, in the ordering of eacl

ments Of holy life, the rich and divin

4 E. Rawson has lately received and is
constantly making additions to his stock of
Watches of all kinds, and has now on hand
fine assortment of the celebrated Waltham
and Elgin Watches, which cannot be excelled
for durability and accuracy in time-keeping.-
These watches will always be sold at the lowest
possible prices, and all are fully warranted. For
nothing can excel watches made on the Amer
lean plan, the peculiarites of construction rem
der than most foreign watches. The Elgin watch
es have valuable patented improvement, which
in case of breaking the handspring, renders dam
age to the train impossible. These American
watches are all made in regular sizes, SO that
persons buying, can have cases of any thickness
or weight desired, and exchanges in either cases
or movements can be made at any time. E. E..
Rawson has also supply of cheap foreign watch
es which will be sold at the lowest figures. Also,
Jewelry and Fancy Goods of all kinds. L. E
Rawson is sole agent for the celebrated Lanca-
shire Lens Spectacles, also the Lazarus Morris
perfected spectacles which are sold at manufac-
turers prices. These lenses are much superior
to the spectacles commonly aawked about the
country, and by their use, tend to preserve, rath
er than injure the sight, and by his long expert
ence in fitting lenses to the eye, Rawson believes
that he can suit most persons much better than
most of the so called opticians who travel the
country selling specs, because they are too lazy
TO work, and find il natural and easy to tell lies
These specs are always exchanged if after wear
ing "a short time they are found not 20 perfectly
fit the eye. 90

of the colored people, on the farms adjacent to
