Esquire Miller heard the case Of the
State VS.. Francis Thompson to-day on
the charge of accusing John Randolph
(colored) Of hoodooing sick negro
woman. Justice Miller issued warrant
under the common law which prohibits
conspiracies to commit breaches of the
peace and sedition. After hearing the
description of the hoodoo perform
ance the Justice dismissed the warrant
with a reprimand to all parties. Miss
Thompson is the colored female who so
astenished the Congressional Committee
on the Memphis riots by detailing cir
cumstances like unto those POLITICALLY
described by Byron in Don Juan, with
reference to the actions Of the Russian
grenadiers under Swawarrow at the
siege of Ishmael.

The local money market is gradually
becoming easier as the dull season APP
proaehes, and nothing worthy Of espe-
eial mention has occurred during the
week just closed. The banks, As a rule,
extend more satisfactory aeeommoda-
tons TO their customers VIXEN the calls
are accompanied with offerings OF ae-
ceptablc paper. The mercantile com
munity are not borrowers to any great
extent, and outside parties who are rated
first class find decided improvement in
the readiness with which loans are nego-
tiated at the bank, and are not, as was
the case, a couple Of weeks since, com.
PEELED TO seek the street for aceommoda-
tons. Firstclass paper finds ready dis
count at lO@l2 y cent, and outside
borrowers pay little more. The Jack
son Insurance Company, that was closed
on the I'd inst. by an attachment, was
again opened this morning for business,
and instead of run" as might have
been expected, only those depositors
who actually needed funds withdrew
their deposits. Exchange remains about
the same in supply and demand, but a
slight improvement is noticed to-day in
the buying rates for New Orleans bills.
Last week they were from S@lc dis.
count, and to-day Ia &c is the rate, bank
ers' checks selling as formerly, at par.
Eastern bills are par buying and ic pre-
MUM selling for bankers drafts. Gold
is steadier to-day at lls in New York,
and is worth to dealers here ll64@ll7
Nothing of special importance has tran
spired in local securities during the
week. The Gayoso gas works we're sold
out, the principal stakeholder being the
purchaser, and the sale is understood to
have swamped all the small share
holders. This, though, has not been
finally determined yet, as several of the
small fry intend to bring suit for
damages, and may get their invested
funds returned. In other securities,
scrips, etc., nothing has occurred to
change quotations, which are NOM

COTTON.

Saturdays sales were 1000 bales. To-
day there is considerable looking around
and pricing Of lists, but buyers do not
seem inclined to purchase heavily, from
the fact perhaps that the Liverpool mar

York, while not lower, is decidedly dull,
both for spots and futures. Sales up to

NEW ESTABLISHMENT
THE PEOPLE ASK IT AND
THEY MUST HAVE IT.
Gabriel Hirsh e CO.,

having been solicited by numerous friends OF
staunton and vicinity to open frst-class
House-Furnishing Establishment
in the CITY. have concluded to follow their incli-
nation to please the people, and have therefore
leased the splendid store room of James A. IL
per. on New street, near Virginia Hotel, and are
now opening a very superior assortment of
CARPETS, MATING, WALL PAPERS,
CURTAINS, &c.
They propose to keep on hand everything in this
line, in abundant quantities and varieties, so as
to be able to meet any demand, however largo or
small They will keep for sale, ALSO Mirrors,
from the costliest to the cheapest Gilt Mould
ings &c., and will carry on the
UPHOLSTERING AND PAPER HANGlN G
business, having employed for this purpose, Mr..
GEORGE w HEwETT, one of the most finished and
superior workmen in the United States. They
will, ALSO do all kinds of Furniture Repairing,
such as re seating sofas, chairs, &c.
Having been induced to enter into this new
business from the expressed wish Of many of Ga
briel Hirsh's old friends and customers, and the
conviction that the increasing demands Of our
growing population require it, they expect to be
literally encouraged.
Their charges will be moderate and just. They
want nothing for what they do not give the
equivalent, and the reputation of the head of the
concern for fair dealing, will justify the public
in their expectations to have frst-class House
of this kind, where the wants of our people in
this respect can be supplied june l2-tf

We desire te express our appreciation Of the
liberal patronage bestowed upon US during the
last two years by generous public. Our bust
ness firm being made up principally of strang-
ers, from distance, we had no reason
to expect the patronage of the community Of
our adoption, except SO far It was founded
upon determination to make our work compare
favoraby, in price and quality with that of first
class city shops, and conviction that, by do
ing we would merit and obtain 8 large share Of
that class of work, which has not heretofore been
undertaken in this section, but which had to be
brought from the cities The result has proved
the reasonableness of our expectations, and en-
courages us to press forward with renewed ener-
gy, and with ever increasing and charging IA
ciities
We invite an inspection of our shops by those
contemplating the purchase of machinery.
We endeavor to make all our purchases for
cash. and having limited amountsso f capital, we
are consequently compelled to require cash o,
negotiable note, at short time, for all work.
For the quality of our work, we take the lib.
erty of referring to the following gentlemen
among the many from whom we have received
orders.
