Summer Arrangements.

The Louisville Courier-Journal says
A trip to San Francisco by rail is to be
the fashionable excursion of the season.
Everybody who pretends to be anybody
at all will go. The Pacifcroad has been
put in splendid order, and, with the mag
nifcent Pullman palace cars of the line,
the trip is indeeda pleasant one. In an
ticipation of the rush of pleasure seek
ers, Mr.. S. E. Carey, General Ticket
Agent of the Louisville and Indianapolis
line, is prepared to arrange with excur-
sion parties at prices within the reach of
ALL For parties of twenty-five, the fare
each for the round trip is $3.50. For
parties of fifty, $3.50 for the round trip.
Who will organize the first excursion?

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

| CoTToN.-Sales yesterday amounted to 100
bales, and if there were no quotable advance,
the market was firm and active. Inquiry came
over the wires, and Liverpool. as we felt its
pulse, was hopeful, and New York regaininG
vigor few bales of good middline brought
pc; middling. 2O1aG21c; low middlings, Doc
strict ordinary, 16al61sc. Local receipts show
very little diminution, and when the weather
changes, there may be slight increase in i'm
portations.
SuPPLIEs.-Within the past week there has
been marked depression in the meat market,
which, like cotton, sympathiEed with gold.
But prices are again readjusted, and there has
occurred a slight advance. The hog crop is
good, and there can be no extraordinary infa-
ton, and as our dispatches show, S25 so to SGT
are ruling rates for mess pork.
MoYEY.-The banks are busy. Everything
freezes except greenbacks, which flow steadily
and strongly through all channels of trade.
Exchange, of course. is scarce, and bankers
we're paying one-eghth premium. CONNER
cial bills are taken at par. Money is easy, and
iirst-rate paper goes at 10 TO II per cent. The
truth is, there is more money in the South now
than at any period since the war, and the
amount will increase rapidly. Not only do
cotton-growers hold more and their employees,
but the influx of Northern and foreign popu-
lations begets abundance Of money. The ten
per cent. usury law of Tennessee will turn
loose large sums now boarded and inactive.
ScRIPs.-City and County both in bad condi-
ton, and are not improved by cold weather.
The value they have is due more to the fact
that these securities are monopolized than that
they are invested with any peculiarities Of sol
vency in the makers. County warrants are
worth Is to a. and city scrip, perhaps, shade
less. The personal property of the county.
levied on by the Sheriff, as we are told, viii be
sold in few days. Railroad stocks may then
be bought cheap. and the sale viii hardly have
a healthy influence upon the warrant and scrip
markets. The next person that sues the county
will only find real estate to levy on, and in this
case the process Of making the money is much
slower.
CorroN MnLs.-The organization Of the En-
pire Manufacturing Company, devoted to the
manufacture Of paints, manures. cement, rOof-
Ing, and the progress made in creating strong
capital for the Wood and Willow-Ware Manu-
featuring Company. have berotten deal Of
interest in all similar enterprises. An ordi-
nary Gotten crop annually adds at least $50
900. 900. over and above cost Of production, to
the wealth Of the South. This profit would be
nearly doubled If the cotton were sold in the
shape Of cloths and yarns. An ordinary crop
worth 81. 600 as yarns, would be worth
ssSO. 10000. Why not have a cotton mill that

Police Court.

Twenty-seven cases appeared on the
police docket this morning. Eighty dol
lars were collected in fines. George
Leslie, colored vagrant, was commit
ted forty days without the benefit of
clergy. Charles Deadlock, a white man,
for stealing mule was turned over to
the State. John Roach, on the charge
of robbery, was also turned over to the
State. Cornelius Burton, colored gem
tleman, and a sort of bounty jumper,
was fined ten dollars on the charge of
obtaining money under false pretences.
VIM. Phillips, white man, was charged
with robbery and turned over to the
State. Henry Clay, colored gentle
man who runs transportation machine
known as hack, was fined ten dollars
for leaving the machine in front of
"Roxiana" Nelson Maddox, gentle
man of color, was sentenced to twenty
days on the changing for resisting an
officer. He took an appeal. Plus Frank
lin, a drunk, uproarious, fghtingAfrican,
was arrested by three officers in one of
the negro concert saloons which abound
in the southern part of the city, and was
fined fifteen dollars, which will occupy
his muscle for thirty days on the chain
gang.

Memphis and Shelby county may have a share
Of this enormous profit which we suffer to en-
rich distant or foreign countries.
sPEcrE.-A few enterprisins shop-keopers
and whisky vendors in New Orleans and else
where have adopted a cheap mode Of adver-
Using their commodities, by paying out silver
change. The coin thus used is Of the smaller
denominations, and when gold is down to Ill
or ll2 this silver is worth very little more than
currency. However, the process can continue
but few days. and meanwhile serves as cap
ital advertising dodge. Itmakes money-lovers
feel good when cutching the rusty coins, and
royiyes delightful memories Of glorious times
Of old, when there was honesty, decency and
good government in the land. Weare anxious
to know how long these specie-paying houses
in the South win continue the process.

The weather is decidedly ugly-a heavy
northwest wind blowing furiously, making the
surface of the river look like a small-sized
ocean. The water is rough and covered with
white caps, which roll over each other in every
direction. Work on the levee is anything but
pleasant, and heavy overcOats are necessary
protection against the sharp. nipping wind.

fails to sends its warmth. the earth is frozen
hard, and ice is plentiful. The weather is the
coolest and most disagreeable we have expe-
rienced this season. The upper rivers are sta
tionary at all points.
