our attention has been called to a petition

special message, asking that resolutions be
PASSED urging upon Congress the Proprtst OF
rsfurnfng the Unconstitutional tax on cotton
collected in ls6A, 400, lS66, 1907 and 1855. The
Il. Louis Times says that the petition was very
generally signed on change, and would prob
Rblv be heard from when the legislature again
meets: thaE.ithe argument OF some that mas
much as his TAX having already been paid,
was merely added to the cost Of the cotton and
should moi therefore be returned, Is simply the
Rob Roy argument-might makes right! We

The general market was unusually Inactive
The night before a heavy rain feLL, and an In
cipienI one continued throughout the day.
and wherever supplies were not actually

market was quiet, 50 with produce, the re-

The principal feature Is coffee, While the posi-
