A most singular natural phenomenon
is reported from South Carolina During
the war young confederate soldier was
wounded, and his leg was amputated
near the thigh. The wound healed rap
idly; but about year afterward a tieshy
protuberance began to grow from the
place ot amputation. 1t took the shape
of foot, and since that time it.has been
growing finely, until now the man has
perfectly new foot and leg growing from
his thigh, which, in year or so, prom
ises to supply the loss of his les. @

FINANCE AND TRADE
Boston Wool Market.


BosToN, June 10.
The wool market Is in a decidedly
anomalous condition. There is great
depression both in products and the raw
material. A great deal of the wooden
machinery of the country is running at
an actual loss, and the prospect is by
no means flattering of material or
early improvement in the business.
Yet wool continues to sell freely, and
in large lots, at current low prices, in
dicating that buyers have confidence
that values cannot go much lower The
transactions in this market have been
large during the last three or four weeks,
and several leading wool houses have
entirely cleared out their stocks.
The truth is that the owners OF old
wool. in view of the well-ascertained
fact that the means and wants of buyers
are likely to be greatly restricted, and
that the new clip will come upon the
market, if not early, at least at very low
prices, are anxious to realize. Hence
they are pushing off the remnants OF
their stock az very low prices. Yet these
reduced prices are all that actual con-
sumers are willing to pay, and they
would not purchase at all, or to any e1-
tent, if liberal concessions were not
made to them. They seem to be very
Indifferent in regard to the movements
of the new clip.
Advices from the West state that the
new clip will probably be bought, up at
about the opening prices of last season,
viz: at an average of 35a4Oc for the diff
ferent grades of western, an average of
4Oc for Ohio, and 40a45c for Pennsylva-
MIA. These rates are full high enough,
considering the prospects of the staple
here in the great markets of cOnsump-
ton; and for country buyers to 60 be-
yond them in the strife of competition,
would he for them to incur great haz-
ards.
Bat little new wool is coming for
ward, or expected till the LIST of next
month; and then it is not certain that
the receipts will be free. The fact that
prices materially advanced after the
opening transactions last year, may in
duce farmers to hold back this season,
in the hope of a similar result. They
are now in the midst of the shcarinG
season, and the bulk of the clip will
not be ready for marketing for several
weeks to come.
New Kentucky cOmbing is being re-
uuivcd In small lUts, aud is readily
taken at relatively high prices. Coarse
Western Fleece is about ont of the mar
ket, and much wanted Good condi-
toned lots would sell at about the same
rates paid for extra Fleece, and con-
signers should take hold of these de-
scriptions first
