stealing Cows.

People who are fortunate enough 70 own
cows and calves complain that they ma
IL exceedingly difficult to keep them from
being stolen, and that even in some instsn-
ces the utmost care is not sufficient to Keep
their stock from falling into the hands oil
thieves. Cattle thus stolen are almost daily
offered to drovers passing through or stop
ping in tie city, most frequently at prices
greatly below their value. AT noon yes
terday a cattle drover informed US that an
bo,r before he could have bought hnt
cow and calf for less money than thein
hides would bring, but declined purchas
ing because he thought the property was
stolen. The man offering was spotted,
and may yet think it the dearest cattl
specuiation he ever engaged in. Citizen
who wish to keep their cows through tn
winter are advised to keep sharp lookou
for cattle thieves, or they mss not be abb

Incidents at Fires.

One of the FIRE department at the fire on
Thursday night, while assisting in carrying
ladder, saw Mr.. Somebody's dog fighting
Mr.. Sambo's dog laid down the ladder
parted the dogs-secured Sambo's from
further assault-then proceeded to assist in
erecting aud scaling the ladder. This we
call coolness if nothing more.
How unlike this, friend seated at bis
supper table the same evening, when told
the fire was on College street near his bust
ness houseP His kind lady urged him e
remain and finish his cup of warm cofe'
before going out into the cold. He rushed
out-became warmed up with the excite
ment of the occasion, and after the fire wa
extinguished, returned home feeling N
needof coffee or any other stimulsnts-th
interest he felt in saving his neighbor'
property, arousing and warming up hi
whole nature, regardless Of dog Sights, col
nights and every other surrounding circum
stance.

WEARY OF LIFE.

Suicide of n Well Known Citizen.
Mr.. George g. Nicholson, proprietor Of
the Eureka saloon, North College street,
near the depot Of the Louisville and Nash
Vile railroad, died yesterday morning SO
suddenly and nysteriously as to create the
impression that he had committed suicide.
The investigation attending the sitting Of
jury Of inquest summoned by Coroner
Norvell. developed the fact that about four
hours before his death the deceased took
two ounces of laudanum and mixture Of
some other poison not ascertained by the
jury. Their verdict was that he came tC
his death by his own act. Mr.. Nicholson
had no family and leaves no relatives herr
that we know Of. As far as monetary mat
tiers are concerned, he was comfortably stu
atel, having accumulated considerable
property since settling in this city. Th
rash act which deprived him of life Is q
tributed to mental arrangement produce

Tribute of Respect.

AT The regular meeting of the Granyil
Masonic Lodge, No. 342 Of F. d A. Nj. in
November, 1868, we, the undersigned COM
mittee, were appointed to draft resolutions
holding in sacred remembrance the memo
nv of our deceased brother, Patrick ID.
Myers, who became member OF this mys-
tic body in the year 1850, at Tannehlll
Lodge, No. 1873, and in oLr efforts to get
up Lodge at this place. Bro. Myers
Welded his consent to retire from his moth
er lodge for which he had great attach
ment and gave US his influence IN becoming
one of the petitioners for a dispensatloD,
and reluctantly received the appointment
Of Junior Warden, which station ne hiled
with honor to himself and fidelity TO The
fraternity, being present with US whenever
compatible with his health. BE died No
yember Z, 1868, having suffered many
months with a chronic affection. de was
| a consistent member of the Christian
| Church, and died in the glorious hope of an
Immortality beyond the grave.
Resolved, That we deeply deplore the
loss of Brother Myers, the first athIcting
| dissemination of Providence that has be-
fallen our institution at this place; but II
the midst Of life we are in death. lar
born of a woman is of few days and full o
trouble. Yes, be giyeth up the ghost, ant
where is he ?" But We recognize what /
our loss is a gain to that celestial Loddg
above, where we all should hope to arise
by the gentle swsying of faith, hope ant
. charity.
i Resolved, That in the death of Broihe
Myers we are taught the uncertainty OF III
and the certainty of death, and that we ar
all fast Fastening to that bourne tror
4 whence no traveller returns. his good e1
ample we should initiate, that our bodl'
. may rise and become as incorruptible as OF
y souls.
e Resolved, That we sympathizs with an
offer our coincidence to his bereayed famil
r and friends. i,
Resolved, That copy Of these resOl
D tons be furnished by the Secretary to Il

The New York Pos, of the afternoon of
the 9th inst. says:
"In the money market rates show hard
ening tendency, and the number OF loans
made under seven per cent. Is small,
although some transactions continue
to be reported at six. This firm
ness in rates is attributable rather to
the drain Of currency to the South and
Southwest than to a more active demand
here. where the diminished volume OF
business at the Stock Exchange has mate
rialIy restricted the wants of stock brokers.
We hear that some of the larger holders Of
stocks are seeking to make long time loans
and for the use of money for four months
are offering, in addition to the legal rate,
one per cent. commission. Business IN
commercial paper is quiet with the chief
demand for prime short acceptances, which
are submitted to a discount of 73@8 per
cent; other grades are quoted at S4C9lO
per cent.
The New York Independent of the 9th
inst. says of the dry goods market:
The tone of the market for domestic cot
tons has somewhat improved, and there is
better disposition among jobbers to in
crease their stock, but prices do not give
way sufficiently to induce heavy purchases.
The standard makes are comparatively
firm, but in some of the less popular brands
there has been concession to the pur-
| chaser of half TO q cent a yard.
There is a pretty general complaint of
| dullness among all classes of the trade;
but. as there is nothing in the aspect of
| affairs calculated to create any feeling Of
upeasiness as 70 the future, there is nothing
like encouragement manifested, and all
are looking forward hopefully to the next
session.
For the present the West is paying up
! about a. well as can be expected, and the
South is doing better.
| In unbleached cotions there is 4 firm
feeling among the manufacturers agents
and decided disposition to hold on to
their stocks for the highest prices at the
opening Of the season In 1869. -..
There is but little doing in bleached
sheetiDgs and shirtings, and the same con-
! dition of affairs exists as in uDbleached
| goods. But jobbers and the great shirt
manufacturing houses will be under the
necessity of making their purchases soon ;
|
ticipating an active demand, which will
fully sustain if not advance prices. New
York mills sells at Is, and Wamsuttas at
221 for "A and 80 for Sd.
Prints have sold more freely than during
the previous week, but mostly in the new
patterns. The old styles are slow OF sale,
but prices are steady.
The Memphis Avalanche of the llth inst.
says:
"Adyices from Arkansas are far from
favorable as regards the cotton crop. A
gentlemen who went into that State to buy
up cotton on speculation returned day OF
two ago. and reports thousands OF acres
along the White and Arkansas rivers on
which not a bale has yet been picked, II
beipe impossible to obtain laborers on &C
count of political troubles and the fact
that thousands of negroes have fiocked to
the capital aud entered or are trying to
enroll in the militia service. In SONS

death was caused by fit.
The Ohio River improvement survey,
ing parties have concluded their heid
work and returned home. The engineer
ing parties have been disbanded, and the
assistants are at work making up their re-
ports. According to the surveys, the Ohio
river is not so long as has been supposed,
being only nine hundred and sixty-seven
miles. Five hundred and thirty two miles
Of river have been cleared Of wrecks and
snags. Many important improvements
have been completed and others projected.
Another season of such work will make a
change in the navigation of the Ohio.

A Fine Residence is Barely Saved
from Being Burned DOwn.
About o'clock yesterday afternoon a
FIRE broke out in the residence Of Mrs. Pill
cher. on the corner of High and Church
streets. The fire originated in a room occu-
pied by Mr.. Benson in the rear OF the
house, and was caused by defective Aue.
II was at least fifteen minutes before any
water could be obtained, and some time
before the engines commenced playing
water on the building. The house was
formerly owned by Mr.. John Kirkman and
is situated back Of the large Kirkman
block. The flames spread and reached
the roof which was made Of tin, and
burned nearly one whole of an ell, and
after some time it was extinguished. Mrs
Pitcher was insured in the Etna Company
for 5000, and $1,000 in Mari & Cole
mans Office. The loss is estimated to b.
about $4,000.
The principal damage 10 the building
was from water, every room in the build
ing being perfectly flooded.
The house was filed with boarders, an
3 the excitement ran high among the ladi'
3 in particular, some of whom were badl
frightened.
u At one time it was thought that the ei
q tire building would be destroyed, but u
'e citizens present rendered efficient service
and aided materially the Efforts Of the n
Is department, who were using very lar
10 amount of water, but with little effect.
