OFFCE OF THE DAILY REPUBLICAN,i
THURSDAY EVENING, November TO- 1870! )
The money market continues to show the
Same features noticed in our reports for
some days past. The offerings at bank con-
tinue in excess of their available means,
and to-day showed slight increase. On
the street We hear Of transactions at quota
and below. We still quote 10lA y cent
= month for AL notes secured by unques-
tiOnable collaterals; l " for good do, and
l " G2 for Al business paper without collate-
rails. Mortgage paper still rules at 10 a II y
cent v annllm for Al, and l2Vl5 for second
grade.

and $1,000 at Ill. In silver we note sales of
$1,000 in American halves at l07; 5000 at
I07l4 and 500 at 107k.
Quite an active business transpired in
foreign exchange, the sales of sterling en-
bracing about 8lO5, 900, including s2O0O bill

Sterling may now be quoted at ll90ll9ls
for good to Al bill of ladins and clear, and
120A a l2O+e for bank.

Mysterious is marriage in Illinois. For
instance, at Bloomington a young gentle
man bearing the primitive name OF Adam,
leads a young woman to private altar and
is surreptitiously joined to her. The new
made pair keep their secret, and the virgin
wife returns to the residence of her papa.
Becoming impatient. the bridegroom goes
to the parental mansion, produces the GER
tihcate and demands Immediate possession
of his better moiety.
Upon this, the ,ngratefui bride, seeing
tornado gathering upon her fathers brow,
with an impudence which does credit to her
sex, actually denies that she is married at
all! The poor, repudiated husband is Zero
ciously kicked out of the front door by the
cnraged pater familias. Recovering his
centre of gravity, he proceeds to institute
an action for divorce. This shows that
under the rude treatment to which he has
been subjected, his love land who can won
der at it y has been changed to bitter ha-
tired.
IF it were otherwise, why, in the name of
common sense, did he not sue out a writ of
habeas corpus. which would speedily have
placed the young woman with the short
memory in his armsf Moreover, it is ex-
tremely difficult to see upon what ground
Door Adams libel for divorce can be OBJ
tanned. Certainly, there has been no deser-
ton, for the knot is only three weeks old
But a frst-rate action, with q nice prospect
of damages, might be brought against tn
passionate parent-and that Ii what we
should have recommended.

story About Bismarck-What He
Found In His Bed.

At the Prussian headquarters in Meaux,
the king occupied the front, and Count Bis
marck the back rooms OF the archbishop's
palace. The apartments Of the count were
on the ground floor, and looked out on the
extensive gardens to the rear of the palace.
The sixteenth day Of September bad been a
very busy day to many of tho Prussians,
and not least of all, to the count He was
riding all day, and in the evening he had a
long conference with the king. Tired with
these difficult labors, he fastened, when he
reached his room, to prepare for bed. He
had scarcely, however, begun to undress,
when he heard rustling among the bed
clothes, and ON searching found there. to
his astonishment, an infant not more than
four weeks old. On looking closer, he found
by the side of this cntam troure the follow
ing note: envy husband fell at Sedan; l
have nothing to cat. Despair forces me to
part with my only child. 1t has been bap-
tied Vincent" Nor does this curious story
end there. To make it dramatically com
plete and symmetrical, the unfortunate
mother committed suicide. The matter is
said to have reached the ears Of the king,
and orders were given that the desolate
infant should be sent to Berlin. Was ever
a life so curiously begun

Washington Items.

j. H. Savil has been appointed chief
clerk of the treasury.
There was some excitement at the
capitol on Thursday by Bibles being left
in all the committee rooms-it is supposed
by the Society for Propagating the Gospel
among the Heather.
There is goodly attendance of med
ical men at Washington to attend their
National Convention, and there may be q
lively time about the admission of two
colored delegates. "Who shall decide
when Doctors disagree?"
Mr.. Schenok gave notice that he
would ask an adjournment from next
Tuesday to the following Monday, to en-.
able the House to be put into summer
dress. A large number of members will
take advantage of it to go home.

dollars. The police have arrested the
thief and recovered the clock.

Price Of Butter This season.

Much is said as to the probable price OF
butter the coming season, and the belief
il general that the ruling price will range
lower than last season. The Hearth and
Home believes it will not vary three cents,
upon the following reasons;
First. Cheese-factories are very popular
and fairly profitable. They make it pos,
sible for farmers families to do their own
work, which is O consideration that those
who have sought for competent servant
Urls, either for the kitchen or the milk
room, know how to appreciate.
The farmer always gets ready money
for his milk, without any thought or
trouble of his own-a condition of things
which has about it considerable to attract,
If little to educate.
These factories are therefore extending,
and every one subtracts a certain amount
from the aggregate butter production.
Second. We shall consume this year
more than we did last. Lard is about the
same price now as then, and hence the
amount of butter used for cooking pur-
poses will be nearly the same, and as the
aggregate of consumers is increased, the
amount consumed cannot be less, and will
probably be more.
Third. There are few, if any, more
cows in the United States than they were
q yoar ago. Last spring, calves in most
sections of the Union sold very high. Dur
ing the season, beef was in great demand,
