Re.,en Weol . .rket.

The Advertiser, of Friday. says:
The receipts for the week have been 3s77
bales, against TO- 7S6 bales for the corresponding
week last year. The sales for the week amount
to I05O,000 Ds of domestic fleece and yulled, and
21uUo Ds Santa Fe and 100 bales Mediterranean.
There has been more inquiry for fleece wool the
past week, and although the tight money mar
ket has rest ricted sales the transactions for the
week are full an average one. Prices are with
out quotable change. but we think the general
tone of the market is frmer and there is less
disposition 10 make concessions in order to ef-
feet Sales. II is pretty clearly ascertained that
the lip of the country will fall below that Of
last year, and with the same amount Of ms
chinery in operation there will be no surplus
wool.
Combmg and delaine woods are in active re-
demand. There Is also ademand for good lots
of Ohio and Michigan K, and the stock here is
firmly held. Heavy fne fleece is neglected, and
dealers would bs unwilling to pay above 4oc for
this description. In California wool there is no
change TO note and the market is dnn. Foreign
wool Is quiet and the sales for the week have
been HRht. s.-..

SABBATH observation-disclosures the

lnand Of the Lord. Yet, in the town OF
81 CiairsviIie We see this requirement
Oi Jehovah treated with contempt. Yes,
~ ith contempt, and, am sorry to say,
Uy . few influential citizens. Selling
and buying on the sabbath. What ar
ticIes are cold 1t is, perhaps, NOT always
easy to determine, a. very frequently
nothing is visible. Those engaged In
this disreputable traffic would like to
have 1t appear that tobacco, in its vari-
GUS forms, is the only article disposed Of.
None are 80 verdant as to believe any
such thing. Much more injurious stim.
ulants are sold by these Sabbath break
ers to old and yeung, white and black.
This is done in the most public part of
town. And worst of all, reputed mem.
bers of church are guilty. Oh. for shame!
One such individual does more injury,
especially to- the, young. than all the
chnrrhes and Sabbath schools In the
place can counteract. Is It possible that
mel will not consider the consequences
Of their acts? What has been the history
of the life and the end ofSabbsth break
ers? Go to the prison cells and enquire.

LEFT at one of our hotels. which had black and
copper colored sediment in the bottom almost
as thick asa cent. This whisky had been pur-
chased in this place, and. we understand. was
about fair sample OF the liquor sold. The par
ty who purchased ft had two naif pint TASKS.
but after finishing one of them had not the
courage to attack the other and left it untouch.

six barrels Of genuine whisky outof every barrei

belimited to six barrels to one, as . little more

quantity without injurine the quality, for that
is already about as bad as 1t can be. A man
who sells whisky, as beverage, is a mean man,
