The deliveries from Liverpool the first 23 weeks OF
1859 were $4,000 per week, which included a large
trade demand for some weeks. Now the trade de-
mand is much less, but there are indications of
large export demand. Assume, then, an increase

age loss to spinners, manufacturers, and exporters
during the last five or six months. The consump-
ton OF cotton on the continent of Europe has not
varied materially from that of the previous year.
Their direct imporaons have been larger, and they
have taken less from England. Up to October the
manufacturing world has a visible and probable eX-
listing supply of cotton, larger than last year, with
which to meet smaller consumption. The result
promised is larger aggregate stock the 1st of
october next.

Gents:-A persistent but unsuccessful effort was
made ON the night OF May 20, 1869, to drill the
Bankers chest received from you a few menth ago.
From facts that have come to our knowledge it is
evident that the attempt to open it was renewed on
Sunday evening following. Finding all efforts to drill
1t useless, the effort was then made to break the
lock. The hammering was heard by parties In the
neighborhood for several hours, but supposng it to
arise from the railroad men replacing defective
rail, excited no alarm. The TOOLS with the exception
of the drills, left It Is evident that they were
not only prepared, but perfectly familiar with the

A Jolly Joss.

An adventurous California CORES
pondent has penetrated the Utmost IN
terror of Chinese Joss-house In San
Francisco, and has seen Joss hims If.
Joss, who is irreverently styled the O!d
Boy, seemed to be having a very nice
time of it, aud was gorgeous in jewels
and fine clothes. His silken coat was
heavy with gold and silver, and he wore
q natty little smoking cap. All his sur
rouudings were sumptuous. His throne
FILTERED with gems. Overhead was a
velvet canopy, rich with precious met
ais. As for Joss himself, he presented
the appearance of high living and deep
drinking. His fingers were decked
with diamonds, but his nose displayed
carbuuces only; his whole face was
fsmingly red, and altogether in spite OF
his fiue clothes, he was most disrepu-
table old deity.
The splendor of this Joss house is rep
reset ted 10 he equal TO that of some of
the temples in China, only there, and
doubtless in California, every Chinaman
has ms own JOSS and Joss-honSe on Il
small scale. Mr.. Barnum, in narrating
his troubles in the clock business, tells
how Connecticut clocks have been dis.
tributed all over the world, and that
whole cargoes of them have been sent

appreciated as time-keepers, but China.

Quite n Spectacle.

One of the handsomest and best
dressed gentlemen in the city is worthy
merchant, whose great personal care OF
himself and his addiction TO fine living
have procured him rotundity which,
while it detracts nothing from his coed
locks, utterly conceals from his own in
spection his extremities. The cirCum-
stance was on Friday morning the oc-
casion of, to him, notifying exposure,
whilst others looked upon it as an
amusing spectacle. Before breakfast he
invariably takes morning walk, and
his urbanity and polite recognition are
looked for by early pedestrians with
pleasure.
Dressing himself, therefore, with great
care, he sailed out, but, strange TO say,
every one he met turned their heads and
laughed, and some ladies from the gal
lery of residence over the way ran
screaming into the house.
What did it meanf"
At last he met little boy whose i'm
msderste laughter drew from him the in
dignant inquiry:
What do you see about me, you lit
tie scoundrel, that every body laughs
ats"
"Why, Mr.. D, you've forgot to put

Overwhelmed with shame, the old
gentleman, hurried home and eagerly
sought out the mirror. In his haste he
had carefully adjusted his attire, but
had, indeed, forgot his pants. -NeW Or

STRANGE WATERS.
The Hot Sulphur Springs ofthe Rock


A mounfnins.
A correspondent of the Chicago Tsi.
baae has paid recent visit to the Hot
Sulphur Springs beyond the Rocky
Mountains in Little Wind river Valley
and forty miles from South Pass City,
and the description be gives of them is
very interesting. They lie in a basin
containing about 100 acres, and are a
quarter of mile in extent. The mid
die spring is bottomless, seeming to come
from the very bowels of the earth, aud
the velune of hot water it throws ont
is positively immense. The water at
the edges was so hot that one could
hardly hold the hand in 1t, and the tenn.
perature gradually increased towara
the center. The water is of a deep blue
color, strongly impregnated with sur
phur and very clear. The Indians nave
long bathed in the springs. anu oAn y
them great medicine for SICK nan,
and the party of which the correspon-
dent was a member found bath very
.inyigerating. 1t is quite a curious cir
cnmstance that within hundred yards
of the springs a well has been aug
which contains clear, cold water, per
feotly sweet, and without the least taint
of snInbur. The small streams In this
valley are remarkable for the quantities
of front and white. fish they con-
tain. Two gentlemen took seventy
four of the speckled variety IN two
hours, some of which weighed nearly
three pounds. mo sooner would the
hook touch the water" says the cores
pondent, ethan there was splash, a
Jerk, and you knew by the nervous tight,
ening of the line you were ready to land
a fine fish.
