abundant rains, and warm nights have been
our portion here for the last week. There
have been no signs of frost as yet, and fall
feed for stock is remarkably good which will
tend to reduce the price Of hay. which
owing to the dry summer and short crop. is
unusually high. Prime hay sells in this
market from S14.00 to $1,000 a ton, and tinlo.
thy at SIS 90 to $4,000. -
THE WHEAT MARKET
continues to rule, and both receipts and
shipments are considerably less han at this
season last year There Is belief among
operators that prices will be higher On ac-
count of the war and European complica-
tons. If war should become general in Eu-
rope, there would bs marked increase in
the price Of breadstuffs, but it would be IN
wise to trust to such contingencies.
THE MONEY MARKET
is tightening, spectators are discouraged at
the banks, and have to pas' Il to 2 per cent
on the street, but regular customers in legit-
innate business End no difficulty in getting all
the accommodations they are entitled to.
BUSINESS
is fair The larger Wholesale dealers have in
creased their sales over last year. But collec-
lions are rather slow.
POLICY OF COUNTRY MERCHANTS.
1t Is the wisest policy in Purchasing goods
Tor the country trade to deal with reliable
and well established houses. For such
houses attained their success and their bust
ness reputation by sagaeity, integrity, and
by ta'r and upright dealing, and can be trust
ed to give the buyer an equivalent for his
money. Among those who have earned an
h' norable character and an enviabIe success
is the well known firm of
WALSH HUTCHINSON, IS go LAKE STREET,
Importers and iobbers of Millinery and
Straw Goods, who, in the extent of their
business, and the freshness, richness, style
and quality of their goods rank among the
first IA their department of trade in Chicago.
One OF the partners, Mr.. Hutchinson, spent
| the summer in France selecting the choicest
stock OF French goods, laces, silks, ribbons,
hoWers, NC, and they now offer their Gus
toners the most attractive goods Of the
very latest lmpOrtatlons at the lowest prices
As the season for winter clothing approach
es, and the country dealers visit Chicago to
purchase their fall ana winter supplies. they
remember the old landmarks which have
never mls'ed them, and, as naturally as a
duck takes to water, they go to the Oldest,
largest, best known, and most popular whole

PHILIP wADswoRTH & Co, 81 s. Sc LAKE ST.,
where they always find, at the lowest cas- i

proof.

A Mad Husband.

The Detroit Free Press relates clev-
er incident which occurred on the return
OF an excursion party from city, not
thousand miles from that place. Soon
after the boat left Toledo the steward was
approached by an excited individual, who
asked him if he was the captain. The
steward replied in the negative, at the
same time giving his rank.
Have you the power to put man
out of the cabin ?" inquired the stranger.
well, yes, if he's disorderly have"
replied the steward.
M Well, sir, look in here, and see there,
will you" said the stranger, leading the
official around to the door. The steward
looked in upon the motley group, and re-
piled that he saw nothing out of the way.
You don't, eh? Don't you see that
"Well, yes" replied the steward,
" but what of that Hasn't fellow

A Ministerial AnecdOte.

OLD PARSON B, who presided
" over little flock in one of the back
towns Of the State of NJ, was.
without any exception, the most eccen-
trio divine we ever knew. His eccen-
trlcltles were carried as far in the pulpit
as out OF it. An instance we will relate 4:
Among his church members was one
who invariably made practice of leave
ing the church ere the parson was two
thirds through with his sermon. This
was practiced so long that after a while
it became matter of course, and no one
save the divine seemed to take notice of
it. And he at length notified brother p.
that such thing must, he felt assured,
be needless, but p. said that at that hour
his family needed his services at home,
and he must do it; nevertheless, on leav-
ing church he went roundabout course
which by some mysterious means, al
ways brought him in close proximity
with the village tavern, which he would
enter I" and thereby hangs a tale"
Parson b. ascertained from some source
that P.'s object in leaving church was to
obtain dram" and he determined to
stop his leaving and disturbing the con-
gregation in future, if such thing were
possible.
The next Sabbath brother P, left his
seat at the usual time, and started for the
door when Parson B. exclaimed:
Brother p. p'
p, on being thus addressed, stopped
short and gazed toward the pulpit.
Brother P.," continued the Parson,
there is no need of you leaving at this
time as passed the tavern this morn
ing, made arrangements with the land
lord to keep your toddy hot till church
was out"

Computing Interest.

We give new rule for computing in
terest, and it is so simple that every bank
er, broker, merchant or clerk should post
it up for reference. There being no such
thing as a fraction in it, there is scarcely
any liability to error Or mistake. By
no other arithmetical process can the de-
sired information be obtained by so few
figures.
Six per cent.-Multiply any given
number of dollars by the number of days
OF interest desired and divide by sixty.
The result is the true interest on such
sum for such number of days at six per-
cent
Eight per cent.-Multiply any given
amount by the number of days upon
which it is desired to ascertain the inter-
est and divide by forty-fve, and the re-
suit will be the interest of such for the
time required at eight per cent.
Ten per cent.-Multiply the same as
above and divide by thirty-six, and the
result will show the rate of interest at
ten per cent.

A Donation Party.

I p IN PENNSYLVANIA there is a
~ Presbyterian clergyman whose nom
inal salary is four hundred and fifty dol
lars year. But as it was six months in
arrears, the congregation determined to
give him " donation party" to help him
along 1t came off-the donation party
did. The entire flock was on hand but
the presents that were brought were only
six rolling pins, a pen wiper, and quar-
ter of peck of dried apples, crop of
1864! The minister of course had to
furnish refreshments, and the company
not only destroyed four hams, three-and-
a half pounds of sixty cent butter, and
thirteen loaves of bread, but they ate UP
two pounds Of sugar and all the next
winters preserves. To crown ALL four
spoons were missing. The clergyman SAYS
he wants to have just one more donation
party, and then he will close up his bust
ness and begin life over again as champi
on pauper at the Almshouse. He is par
tlcularly down on one sister who jammed
herself full of ham and preserves, and
enough other succulent diet to keep
the whole family for a week, and then
laid up against the wall pretending to feel
religious, and singing "There is rest for
the weary" He is willing to accept bets
that she will never weary while there is
any grub around-this sister won't. He
would like too feed her for month on
those rolling-pins and the pen-wiper Just
out of revenge.-Despatch.

Singular Ornament.

\ BROOCH worn by the Countess of
N K has recently been the sub
Ject Of conversation in an eminent COM
pany OF polished nobility who are now
exiles in Paris. Encircled by twenty
brillants upon dark,blue ground of lap
isloz''li and protected by glass in front,
may be seen-what? A portrait? A
lock of hair2 No, neither the one nor
the other; but only four bent pins, which
are wrought together in form of star.
The history Of this singular ornament is
contained in the following communica-
ton
Inc Count K was some years ago,
IN his own country, suspected of being
too much inclined to politics, and was
consequently one night, without examina-
ton or further inquiry torn from the bo-
som OF his family by police officers, con-
veyed to fortress in a distant part of
the country, and thrown into damp,
dark dungeon. Days. weeks, and months
passed away without his being brought
to trial. The unhappy man saw himself
robbed OF every succor. In the stiffness
OF death and darkness of the grave, he
felt not only his strength failing him, but
also his mind wandering. An unspeaka-
BILE anguish took hold upon him. He
who feared not to appear before his iudg-
es, now trembled before himself. Con
sclous of his danger, he endeavored to
lind something to relieve himself from
the double misery idleness and loneliness,
and thus preserve him from terrible in
sanity
-Four pins, which accidentally happen
ed to be in his coat, had fortunately es-
capped the notice of his iailor. Those
were to be the means of deliverance to
his spirit. He threw the pins upon the
earth, which alone was the floor of his
gloomy dungeon, and then employed
himself IN seeking for them in the dark
ness, When, after tiresome search, he
succeeded in finding them he threw them
down anew; and so, again and again, did
ne renew his voluntary task. Ali the day
long, sitting lying, Or kneeling, he groped
about with his hand until he found the
pms which he had Intentionally scattered.
Ihls fearful, yet beneficial recreation con-
tlnued Tor SIX years. Then, at last,
great political event opened suddenly the
doors of his prison. The Count had lust
scattered his pins, but he would not leave
his cell without taking with him his little
instruments of his own preservation from
despair and madness. He soon found
them, for now the clear bright light of
day beamed in through the doorway of
his dungeon AS the Count related this
sad story to the Countess; she seized the
pms with holy eagerness. Those crook
ed yellow brass pins, which during six
fearful years, had been scattered and
gathered alternately, were become to her
as precious relics; and now set in a frame
OF brllliants, worth G400, as a treasure of
much greater value, she wears them on
her bosom.

BE~ A short time ago in Delaware
county, Quaker lady, maiden who had
reached the age of sixty, accepted the
offer of man who belonged to the
worlds people" and the Presbyterian
church, and began to prepare for her
wedding. As usual, delegation of
Friends from her meeting waited on her
and demonstrated with her for marrying
out of meeting. The bride elect heard
the visitors patiently, and then said =
Look here I've been waiting Just
sixty years for the meeting to marry me !;
and if the meeting don't like me to mar
ry out of it, aohy don't the meeting 5raa,q
along ats boys ?" That was conclusive,
and the delegation merely "replied " Fare
we'll !" and vanished.
