MONEY.


The money market continues quiet,
without any feature worthy of note, save
the demand for discounts, which con-
tinues active. There is scarcely any
thing doing in stock or bonds. City scrip
is weak, and purchased sparingly by
dealers at 60c for round lots. County
warrants are dull, and cannot be dis
posed of to dealers at over 69c; the SELL
ing rates are II to re. The demand for
Tennessee money has improved some
what, and sales could be effected to-day
at roc. Gold is more quiet; shipping
lots could be sold to-day at 1903. The
opening rate at New York was l2l; it
subsequently advanced to l2l3 at which
rate it is at this writing, and is steady.
Government securities opened dull in
New York, with further decline through
out the list.

Is FOUND IN THE
BOOT

VNHE FIRST PREMIUM AT THE GREAT
Il st. Louis Fair for 1869 was awarded to the
manufacturers ofthis beautiful boot. Itcom-
bines all the utility of the sewed boot with the
cheapness Of tho pegged boot. Its construc-
ton Is in this wise instead of pegs, peculiar
shaped brass screw is driven into the sole when
damp, and smoothly and securely clinehed,
thus holding the soles and uppers together so
tight that they can never rip or give way.
They have all the smoOthness and elasticity of
the sewed boot, and none of the disadvan-
tages attaching to the pegged boot. We sell
them at a price but trife more than that of
the pegged boots; thus, we furnish you with
have fresh stock of all kinds of Boots and
Shoes for ladies, gents. misses and children;
also a fine line of shoe ornaments, which We
will sell at Wholesale and retail.

COTTON.

The market to-day is quiet, with some
demand, though perhaps not as much as
that of yesterday. Middlings are held
generally at lsc; l7ac would, however, if
offered, bring out as much as any buyer
cares to invest in. Buyers are indis-
posed, and having but few orders to fill,
do not purchase above their own views.
The total sales of yesterday largely ex-
ceeded the sales of any day this week,
amounting in all to 100 bales. The sales
this morning will reach so bales, at a
basis of l9c for good middling; I12c for
low middling, and l6 to l62c for good
ordinary. The New York market opened
quiet at yesterdays closing prices, and
the Liverpool market opened quiet at
9sl for uplands, and 9sd for orleans.

SATURDAY EvEN1SG. May el-
In the general markets. including all parts

teen adIancing for several weeks, have been
panickv, and in view Of the improving crop,
prospects have experienced material decline
a month ago, when the public came to tho
conclusion that tho Funding bill was dead,
there &was great revival OF speculation.
Prices OF grain and provisions wcre advanced,
on IN average, 80 per cent, and railway stocks
about Il per cent, but it seems probatie noT
that this upward impulse has eliminated.
In local finances, tho principal featuro Of
the week has been tho movement Of currency

lighter during the last two days, though the
