Sales yesterday were 5000 bales, the
market closing excited and fully &c
higher than quoted by us. To-day the
Liverpool market has advanced I'D, and
New York &c, with a tendency to a still
further advance in both. This favorable
news has 50 excited factors that in some
cases they do not know exactly what to
ask, and notwithstanding that some of
the buyers day or two since
thought lS3c too high for mid
ding, they are in tho market to-day
at Isle for bright styles and find but
little even al that price. 10 say the
market Is excited fails to express its
real condition. In one instance to-day
zoe was refused for table of 200 bales
bright middling, and for an even run
ming list of 400 bales averaging low mid

MkXrHis. TENN. December II. 1871. -
The money markets presents no new
features for comment to-day. The
demand for accommodations is light and
money easy at 10 to IL per cent. "a
ExcAapgeis offering more freely and
the supply is now largely in excess Of the
demand Rates remain steady at to lc
discount buying on cotton bills, and &c
discount selling on Eastern checks. 3.
Gold is lower in New York to-day
than u has been since early 10 1862
the rate there being 1893. Dealers here
follow that market closely, and are buy
ing at lO9.
Local securities are quiet and without
marked change. Mississippi warrants
and Alcorn money are in demand at SOC
for the former and s5c for the latter
City securities are held firmly at 60c for
the currency bonds and 63 to 64c for
the gold issue. County warrants are
strong at 934 to 95c buying and selling;
S66l6 was purchased by dealer to-day
at the former rate. Tennessee money is
held at ss to 90c. Memphis and Charles
ton railroad shares 5000 we're offered
this morning at 44c by one holder,
though others wanted 45c. Memphis
and Little Rock railroad shares are
wanted at l2c, but, there are no sellers,
1t is stated on good authority that the
leading stakeholder in the road lone OF
our citizens) has been heavy purchaser
for year past and now has 1900, 900
Of the stock; also that enough more OF
the Stock Is owned by d few to war
rant the statement that but 100000
is now out of the hands of that
"few." Should Mr.. Scott desire to pur.
chase the road he can probably do so by
paying small advance on the stock
thus held. Arkansas Levee Bonds are
weak, and Notwithstanding 25c was paid
by dealer this morning for $4,000, a
larger amount would not bring over 23c.
1t is rumored upon the street that a
large amount of the bonds already is
sued, instead of being signed by the
State Auditor and Treasurer of Arkan-
sas separately, were signed by the same
person, making them easy to counter
felt. This, with the suit brought against
the Auditor, mentioned yesterday, has
the effect to depress the market and we
should not be surprised to see them go
to or below 20c. Other State and rail-
road securities are unchanged $1,000

THE EDINBURGR INFIRMARY

The old world is the birth place Of sci.
ence, in which has been developed those
principles of medical treatment, in accord
Rnce with which our most successful prsc-
titoners have worked for the relief of the
afflicted, until the new world has been
forced to recognize their superiority and
adopt them. Among the institutions Of this
country that has been most successful in the
treatment of all diseases, and is therefore
deserving of special attention, is the EDIN
BURGH INFIRMARY, of Chicago, which
enjoys the reputation of being the most com
plets institution in this country. It has a
separate department for the trestment of all
diseases, each of which Is under the man
sgsment of competent and experienced pro-
home of the af1icted-the heaven of relief
where all can secure the very best and most
successful medical treatment and that
wstchful care and assiduous nursing SO nec-
esssry for the rapid and lasting recovery
from those diseases that battle the ordi-
nary physician, This institution is founded
upon those principles that the science and
experience of the old world have demon.
s;rated to be the most successful. Medical
men and the best medical publications
in this country, aud in England
France and Germany recommend
them, and We know of no institution
in this country where these principles are
better understood and better carried intt
practice than at the dlnburgh In6rmsry
under the management of Professors SandI
and McTsggert. Two gentlemen of culture
and long experience, who are too well re
commended by the best medical authorities
to need any eulogy from US. Those troubled
with any distressing complaint can do no
better than to consult them, personally if
possible, or by letter.
