Condition Of the Produce, Dry Goods and
other Markets.

NEW YORK, March l1.-Wall street
affairs show sharp reaction from the
| effects of tie bear speculation in gold.
The sentiment is quite common that
| the fluctuations in premiums have
been produced mainly by artificial
expedients, and that, a reaction hav-
ing set in, affairs are likely to revert
back to about the position from which
| the panic started. A large "short in
! terest" has been established during
the fall in gold, and as the shorts APP
pear undecided, whether the reaction
| is permanent or only temporary, they
show considerable vacillation in their
| assumptions, covering, when prices
rise, and again selling when there is
any decline. This being true not only
in gold but also in securities, especi-
ally Governments, gold opened at i3l g,
and, being hammered freely, fell to
l24, and at the latter figure there was
considerable buying on long accounts,
and a report coming from Washington
that the House Committee on Foreign
Relations had determined to report a
resolution in favor of the recognition
of Cuba as belllgerent, the price
quickly advanced to 135. The room
was also filed with rumOrs about COM
binatiOns to bull gold, and the accred-
tied parties to the movement were an
American banker, a large German
banking house and several merchants,
all possessed of very large means.
Though the price has again fallen tOl35,
the reported bull movement carried
it to ia, and it closed at I3sa133. The
market was greatly excited in the af-
ternoOn, and some men who could
not sell gold enough at the lowest
point, were climbing over each ether
this afternoon to buy gold all the way
up to ia. The carrying rates were
2a44 per cent. CleaFances, e97, ,000, 900.
The advance in gold caused a tirmer
feeling in the produce market, al
though with exceptions. Cotton ad-
vanced } to &c, was largely oversold,
and very sensitive.
The dry goods trade was generally
quiet, and the leading jObbers ceased
to war on domestic cotton goods, and
Others, land the advance In gold caused
a more cheerful feeling among mer-
chants. The losses by shrinkage, in
consequence OF the recent decline, are
heavy.
Money remains very eaay on call,
with the leading banks anG brokers,
although some smaller houses reported
a little more activity. Call loans 4a6
per cent; prime business notes 7aS per
cent; sterling exchange more active
and frmer at l085al08s; Governments
active, excited and higher. State bonds
hrmer; New Tennessees active and
buOyant; old DO, 6Ql.

Hence we see that OnetOn of cotton
seed cake contains very nearly one
half as much fixed nitrogen as the
best guano; and it is a notorious fact
that there is hardly ton sold in this
country unadulterated. An English
farmer, writing on the subject, says
that.he prefers the cOtton-Seed cake to
any other fertilizer he knows of. Our
table will show its value in compari-
son with the manufactured phOs-
phates-tO0 many of which have a
sample made for show, and large
lot, very different, for sale. We claim
that cOttOn-seed cake, barn-yard ma
nure, swamp-muck, in compost with
straw or leaves, and perhaps a little
lime or mari, viii make for the farmer
better and by far more reliable fer
tllizeT than any other guanO or phos-
pilates he can buy. We have stated
the price of the cake above. and we
submit that there is no other fertilizer
either 50 cheap or containing so many
valuable qualities.
1t is estimated that the past season
produced 100000 bales of cotton (5O0
pounds 10 the bale). At 1000 pounds
seed to the bale, that would give
1850, 900 tons Of seed. OF this at least
l.000,000 can and viii be made availa-
bic in the future, which, deducting the
loss in hull, etc, would give 425, 1000
tons Of cake. This amount may be
safely calculated as to come before the
American people for market in the
next ten years.

Der therecent thrashing, as we believe
undeservedly administered by the
blondes to Mr.. Storey, editor-in-chie

parody on the "Charge Of the Lighr
Brigade" will reconvey an idea of tht
scene, and the absurd plight in which
the fair warriors left the locality Of the
reneOunter:
Half leg, half leg,
Half leg Nor'ward,
All down the avenue.
Rode the six forward.
''Onward, the Blonde Brigade,
go for his hide" she said
So in their plumes arraved,
Rode the six forward.
"Forward, the Blonde Brigade"
Was there a girl dismayed,
Even though her dearest braid
Dangled disordered?
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to whip and dyel
Thus down the avenue
Rode the six forward.
Rawhides to right of them.
Canes 10 the left OF them,
Ratified and thunderad;
StOrned at with CAT hs from hell,
Boldly they whacked, and well;
Soundly they tanned his hide
Grandly his wrath defied-
All, twas thing of pride,
What there the Blondes dared.
Flashed all their rawhides there,
Flashed all their hairpins bare,
Flashed their white arms in air,
Flashing old Storey there
Pulling his nose and hair,
While the world wondered
Plunged in his meerschaum smoke,
Right for his scalp they broke;
Spurning percussion,
On they kept rushin',
Nor stopped they blHshin'-.
Wonders on Wonders!
Then they rode back, but not
Not the Six Blondes.
Rawhides to right of them
Canes to the left of them,
Pistols in front of them,
Thundered and ratified.
Stermed at with oaths from hell,
Painted they not, nor fell.
But while the dreadful place.
Strewed with combs and lace,
They that had striped him we'll,
Came from his cursing Jaws,
Back from the mouth Of hefi,
All that was left after
Gordon skedaddled.
When can their glory fade2

All the world wonders,

Honor the fair Brigade-

Analysis and Comparison of Its Value by
Prof. n. E. Cotton.
cotton-seed as a Fertilizer.--lts Value to
Farmers and Planters.

We copy the following valuable ar
ticle from the last number of Hearth
and Home, an agricultural publication
OF high merit. Its valuable, not only
for the information which it conveys
to farmers and planters, and the hints
thrown out whereby they may utilize
a most valuable product only recently
economized, but to the people of Mem
phis, who may learn from it to what
an extent our three cottOn-seed oil
mills are beneficial as a means of
handsome dividends, and in the man
ufacture of oil and seed cake, destined
shortly 10 become a prime article Of
Southern export. The Professor says:
It is but within the few years past
since the war that the manufacture of
oil from the seed of the cottOn-plant
has assumed such proportions as to
enable the public to consider supply
Of cake from that source reliable. In
fact, it is probable that many of our
people do not know it either as an ar
ticle of trade or use; yet thousands of
tons of this cake are annually shipped
to England, and the production will
be this year not far from one hundred
thousand tons. The business is yet in
its infancy, and the value of the oil
and cake but little known. In the
early commencement of the manuiac
ture, the great obstacle was met in the
difficulty of hulling the seed, and the
clinging lint was also a source Of trOu-
BILE. Now, both these articles are
turned to valuable account. Hereto
fore, the decOrticated cake, while be-
ing a good fertilizer, was a dangerous
food for cattle, as the hard hull re-
sisted the action of the digestive fluid.
This caused a great prejudice against
it in England; some, however, still
prefer the decOrticated, but only as
manure.
The value of linseed cake is we'll
known to all our farmers in this coun-
try, and we desire to show all who
use such feed the greater value Of the
cheaper article derived from cotton
seed.
