eliminated Government officials by
their testimony before the Custom

allowing soldiers 10 take up land and
acquire valid title without residing on

BILE, being only In fact Issuing land

Persons who arc predisposed to dyspepsia,
nnd their sufferings from this cause greatly az
gravated by damp weather, easterly winds, and
sudden changes from a mild to a chilling atmos-
phcrc. In the spring, therefore, the pangs OF
Indigestion are seriously augmented by the at
mospherlc variations peculiar to the season,
and It 10 incumbent upon all who desire to pass

Chamber OF cammsree.

At meeting called by the President
of the Chamber Of Commerce, on the i'm
portant subject Of receiving the report
of the committee on union with the Cot.
ton Exchange, there being no quorum
present, an adjournment was had to next
Monday afternoon. 1t is understood
that the committee will report as fol-
lows: In favor of uniting when seventy
five members are obtained for the Gotten
Exchange, which will be the Cotton De-
partment Of the Chamber; the Chamber
of Commerce is to furnish suitable
room, and place cotton indicator in the
same--reports to be received from other
Exchanges at the expense of the Cham
Der; the expenses attendant upon the
department to be borne by its members,
which expenses are to be assessed by the
executive committee, etc.
1t is more than probable that the
Chamber of Commerce will agree to the
terms proposed and agreed upon, as it
was feared that the establishment Of the
Cotton Exchange by our leading cotton
men would have had damaging effect
upon the prosperity of the Chamber of
Commerce by taking from it many of its
members.

In local financial matters we have nothing
especially new to report. The supply of cur
rency is abundant. and rates of discount
steady at 10912 per cent, with but few appli-
cations for extension. The money market in
New York shows signs of stringency. but as
yet that feeling has not made its appearance
west Of there.
The situation as regards exchange has i'm
proved but little. We learn. however. Of
transactions between banks amounting to
$50. 200 at 50 premium per $1,000. In buying
over the counter, however, the uniform rate
Is par, with occasionally rumor of devia-
tions, whereby customers are credited with
sc premium, but no authentic information is
to be had upon the subject. In selling the
rate is steady at &c on all points but New Or
leans, which is bought at &c discount and
sold at par.
There is but little gold offering. Dealers
buy at lO9h and would pay &c better for large
amounts. New York rates are HOS.
A New York noon dispatch gives the bank
statement as follows: Loans decreased, 1894, :
100; specie increased, 81 .34S. 100; deposits de-
creased, 1888. 200; legal tenders decreased,
1865, 900; circulation increased. $ll0O.
The movement in local investments is light.
and, with the exception of moderate coun-
ter business in scrips and warrants, but little
is being done. Tennessee money. old. and
auditors warrants are sold TO taxpayers at
90c. and county warrants are held firmly at
95c. There was some inquiry for Arkansas
levees, and sale Of $4,000 at 2Sc. City rail-
way securities are in request at 45c. but we
could hear Of no offers Of SOC. as has been re-
parted. Some city coupons, dating back a
number of years, were offered. and soc. with
interest, was the best bid made. Memphis
and Charleston railroad stock is quoted at
34@35c.
We learn. upon reliable authority. that a
change is contemplated in the presidency of
the Merchants National Bank, Mr.. Wood
ruff. the present presiding officer, having de-
voted several years of arduous laber to the
interests of that institution, has. with the as
sistance Of Cashier Freeman, worked il up TO
first class standard, and now retires. to
give more attention to his individual affairs.
His successor will. we learn. be Mr.. Il. c.
Daniels. formerly cashier, and Who for some
time, has been in New York.

The driving of wild mules through the
streets at a gallop is becoming nuis-
ance in every sense of the term. This
morning a drove of mules ran over a
dray on Madison street and pedestrians
had to scatter in every direction. Some
day the city will be sued for several
thousand dollars by MANNED man or
woman who became a victim to this
frontier style of business. Mules can
be lead through the streets, but that
would be a little expensive to the
owners; hence the cracking of whips and
galloping of semi-wild animals on our
thoroughfares. tgQlfafg4D9Ifn
