aud Democrats are requested to meet at
the Second Circuit Courtroom this even
ing at eight clock to appoint commit

Greeley's reception. We could not give
him too great a reception if be should

THE HORSE AND HIS RlDER.-It was q
happy day for horse and his rider when
the MUSTANG LINIMENT was introduced
as a cure for external diseases and inju-
ries of both. In the stable, the barn
and the household this wonderful emol-
lent is equally useful. If horse is
spawned, or foundered, or harness
CALLED, or afflicted with any other of the
many superficial ills that equine flesh is
heir to, the Liniment effects a speedy
cure, and Il is equally eaicacious when
applied to draught oxen or COWS suffer
ing from outward swellings, strains, or
hurts of any description. As an appi-
cation for bruises, cuts, burns, rheuma-
tism. stiff joints, sprains, neuralgia, ear
ache and toothache, it takes precedence
for all other topical remedies, and is
therefore an article Of prime necessity
in families. eod'd&w

our last report, and now stands four feet
one inch above low water mark. There
is below here seven feet ten inches, aad
to Cairo seven feet FIVE inches; Cairo to
st. Louis, FIVE and half feet, and three
feet full 10 Keokuk, and two feet over
the rapids and to Davenport. The Mis-
souri, is a foet and half above low
water a way up at Fort Benton, and at
Omaha there is three feet. The Illinois
is getting low again, and the Ohio is
about as reported yesterday. The Ar
kansas has slight rise, but not enough
to benefit navigation, and other lower
streams are in fully as bad condition,
being navigable only for the very light
est draught boats. The weather is clear,
and at night quite coel.

CUrTON.

The different agencies of the fast
freight and railroad lines have concluded
an arrangement that goes into effect on
Monday next that promises to be of great
benefit to the shipper. 1t is this The
lines mentioned are to do the compress
ing and charge the same in their freight
rates, furnishing bills of lading to the
shipper the moment the cotton is sent to
the presses and thereby enabling him TO
draw upon the same from one to three
days earlier than the old custom permit
ted. Rates to day are at basis of 81 20
all.rail for uncompressed to New York,
but may advance next week.
Sales of cotton yesterday were 400
bales, the New York market declining to
l93c for middling at the close, and open
ing at l9sc, with a weak feeling in spot
as well as futures. Liverpool closed last
night at 9sd for uplands, and to-day is
quiet but steady at the same figures.
There is fairly active demand here for
the better grades from agents of leading
mills East, as well as on foreign account,
and the on " restriction to sales is the
want of cotton. Since the first day OF
the month 4078 bales have been received
here, and during the same time the sales
have been 1850 bales; that would leave
but 80 bales exclusive of the stock, 1856
bales, carried over from last season, for
sale. The shipments during the same
time amount to 1851 bales. Included in
the sales mentioned there was of course
a large proportion to home spectators
or guerillas and resales' accounts for
the discrepancy between the stock on
hand and shipments. Nearly 200 bales
were sold to-day up to noon at irregular
prices ranging from l7sC9l7lc for good
ordinary, l44@l72c for low middling to
strict low middling and ls@lSsc for

A new kind OF pipe has been devised
for the conveyance OF water. Hitherto no
one could drink water that had long stood
in common lead pipes without danger oil
taking poisonous oxide. The new
pipes, ii Is thought, will carry the water
as pure as when It first entered them.
They arc made with an outside Of iron
and an inside of glass, while between
these two surfaces there Is cushion Of
plaster Of Paris, which, being q non'con.
duCtor, keeps the pipe cooler in summer
and warmer in winter than the ordinary
kinds. The smoothness Of the glass also
decreases the friction, so that water can
be carried to agreater height with the
same force; while the pipes cost less than
lead pipe and less than half the price of
tln.lined or block tin pipe. This pipe, it
Is also said can be used for the convey
auCe Of gas, the glass IEeventing the loss
which takes place through the pores OF
iron pipes, and of other liquids which 1t
Is desirable TO keep pure.
