mating good ordinary sold at 81 l9c, and
kind between strict good ordinary and low
middling at 23c; the sales included 500
bales of these descriptions. The poorer
descriptions of ordinary were offered freely,
but in all the better qualities factors seemed
to feel more confidence, and ask proper
tionably fuller prices.

Chemical Papers.

A new style Of paper has been recently
introduced, designed to be used Tor checks,
drafts, and other commercial purposes.
Such is the preparation of this paper that
figures once made upon it cannot be
erased or chemically removed without
leaving Il mark that would lead to i'm
mediate detection. In the samples Of this
paper that have been shown, an admirable
degree Of perfection has been obtained
and tie invention or discovery promises to
become very popular. The preparation of
this paper is extremely simple. and it is Z
matter Of surprise that 1t was not discover
ed years ago. The coloring material used
is simply dilute writing fluid, which gives
the paper "a delicate French grey shade
Characters written with pen on this can
not be removed in any manner. Ii scratch
ing il resorted to, the surface will be
removed and the white body of the paper
underneath would show the attempt. The
colorpg matter of the surface being the
same as the ink used in writing upon it,,
any chemical preparation that would
remove one would the other, and thus any
attempted alteration would be discovered.
The process it would appear, is designed
to furnish an article for bank checks and
valuable documents that will be absolute
ly proof ag tinst alteration, If this result
is obtained the paper will undoubtedly
come into general use, Ms 1t will be much
more convenient and satisfactory than the
variety of stamps aud punches that arc
now used to secure the same result. The
machines used to cut out or impress the
figures upon the check, at best disfgure
1t, and y prepared paper that woulo be
equally safe would undoubtedly take their
place,
