ON CARONDELET STREET,

The demand for cotton was moderate YES
terday, and factors hold to their former
| prices, taking into consideration the late
improvement in New York Nevertheless
the sales show the market to have recovered
from the dull quiet of Wednesday, which
| dullness, however, we have heard attributed
to the fact that the samples were not in
readiness for operations, as the tables had
been swept the previous days. The run of
prices are now swelling up into another
wave, to again undulate downward, such
movements continuing during the whole
season.
No Lottery stock is offering on account of
rumors to the prejudice Of the corporation
being set atioat. The persistent attacks of
its enemies, made with the object of secur-
ing it. has had such an effect that no one,
unless compelled, would even offer it for
sale. The payment O. the late half yearly
dividend of five per cent elected no remark
But even the strongest faith must be pow
orless in view of the many tongues that are
quite ready to foretell it's peril from legisla-
tive action. Nevertheless the stock has
not fallen but very few points.
In SlaughterhouS, Ammonia and other
stocks lately mentioned, we hear nothing to
report except stagnatiOn.
The street operations seem to have sue
cumbed to the pressure from without. No
news of any kind is stirring among stocks,
bonds or money. No orders are to be filled
The brokerage in fancy stocks has almost
entirely disappeared as announced some
time ago, and such securities no longer ap-
pear even in the list of quotations. Months
ago the impression OF trouble at this meet
ing OF the Legislature was firm, and the
consequent uncertainty it created embraced
all classes. Hence the stocks of such cor
porations whose vitality would flow from
Legislative action, tell to figure SO low as
to surprise even those among bears who
tried to pull them down. IN these securi-
ties money was prophet and clearly fore
told the result.
There is q decided opinion that out of all
these uncertainties good may come in dis
couraging speculation among any but obi
cations, which, like good novel, are
founded on fact" not upon fiction That
time, when holder of stock could support
its claims to consideration by arraying pos

THE FIRE BREAKS OUT INA NEW PLACE.

Just as the excitement growing out OF tie
late tumult had begun to subside, we learn
it has been revived on small scale in
Judge Abell's court. 1t appears that the
Judge has been influenced by q
sensational report in the Citizens Guard
to cross-examine the grand jury upon the
matters they have done and refused to per-
form at this session. Finding they had
taken action in the case of the
assassination of Walter Wheyland, but
had not yet acted in the Chester mat
ter, he thereupon promptly discharged
the jury. 1t is difficult to account for this
action Of Judge Abel upon any rational
theory. For it is manifestly improper to
force the deliberations of grand jury.
They are invested with discretion
to examine and judge the evi-
dence presented to them. And when
Judge Abel takes the er parte state
ments Of partisan newspaper OF the one
sided statements of a member Of the
Democratic Committee as a reason to dis
and break up his court we think
he is liable to censure. There is no doubt
his. conduct will be investigated by the
General Assembly, and that he viii
be called upon to explain himself.

sibilities and probabilities, has passed
away. 1t is now required that the directors
and incorporators should be men in whom
the public have confidence, that the stock
itself should be representative of some
value, and shat the corporation must be
at work instead of canvassing their stock
for sale on the streets.
Money has lately become easier to obtain,
though the demand for it is being reduced.

NOT A GOVERNMENT BUILDING,

For the information Of members of Car
ter's peripatetic House, We would state that
Billy Murphy's "Postoffice" saloon is not
a government building In taking posses
sion of it they were doubtless led into
error by the name We know they feel a
proprietary interest in everything popu-
larly supposed TO belong to the national
government, but they should be careful
not to encroach on private rights.

An incident of New York Life

We always read the letters Of an. 81.
B. :" the New York lady correspondent OF
the ST.. Louis Republican, and although
fully approaching her lively, spicy style,
have thought she frequently descended to a
broad yulgarity which rendered her articles
somewhat Objectionable, but 3 e good heart
she displays III the closing paragraph of her
last letter does much TO cause one TO over
look this objection.
Speaking Of the poor class OF New York,
and referring to the fact that many OF them
are suffering for food, she says
yesterday a sickiy looking man, care
fully dressed in what had been nice bust
ness suit, with that suspicious buttoniog-up
that speaks Of a scanty wardrobe, but scru-
pulouslY clean in the way OF shoes, and
face, and hair-the respectable looking man,
| say, deliberately poked over the ash-bar-
rel, and beating the dirt off morsel Of
bread and q fragment of celery, began to
eat it. This was altogether too much. l sent
a girl flying after him, to ask him would be
please help her put up a stove-pipe that had
fallen. Intbe meantime / went and knocked
the stove-pipe down. He came back read
! ily, rendered the assistance, and while ne
| was washing his hands l cleared the smoke
| ont of NV throat and asked him to have a
bit of luncheon. 1t would make your
heart ache to have seen that poor wretch
eat. Finally his story came out, amidst
many tears-good, strong, manly, Dutch
tears from him, and very sloppy articles Of
globular saline nature from me. Pm the
champion blubberer, who cried all the way
from Albany because another woman did.
l don't know what the matter was to this
day. Bat she wept steadily in one corner,
aud I howled persistently in another. So
10 return to the man. He was German,
"a cabinet-maker out Of work,) and ready
and willing to do anything for his food and
lodging. But he couldn't beg, and he wa.
fairly starving. That one Dutchmsn is
cleaning horses to-day, and will have odd
Jobs hereafter to keep him from hunger Til
he gets q chance to work at bis trade. Bul
OF! the thousands, penniless, homeless anC
hungry in this great city. II only there wa;
a place where a homeless woman coulC
find days work, and, in return, get fooC
and a bed; where a starving man coull
apply and be set to work, aud thus carr
the meal they could not or would not beg
there'd be deal less misery in the city
many a useful life saved, and man,
a soul rescued from shame and disgrace.
