know not, that there is a can OF a
glass jar of nitro-glycerine, or some
other explosive compound, buried in
the southwest corner Of the CapitaI
Square, near the old Arsenal. which
has been there for manyyears, having
been secreted there prior to the sur
render. and the place Of its conceal
ment having been lost. No one dares
TO dig for il, as the blow Of a pick

JACKSON COTTON MARKET.

since our last report the receipts at Jack
son has amounted TO about 600 bales and
our shipments about $50 bales. Our mar.
kct has been active with prices a shade
lower than last week. Financial deranre-
ment still continues to exercise a depressing
influence upon cotton, embarrassing. alike
the movements Of shippers, spinners and
factors. Futures arc quoted as low As a 81
to 1850. for January, and February I5lzc.
our opinion Is that these figures are too
low for these months. The reports from
the crop are good, the estimate being be-
tween 5, 100 900 and 100000 bales. The
total receipts Of cotton at all United States
ports since the 1st Of September, 1873, up
to the 18th Of this month, have reached
26l,i9j bales against 1890 bales for the
same period OF 1872, showing a falling of
Of l5i, So bales since Sep. ISt, 1875. Should
the receipts still continue to decrease in tho
same proportion for the next two months 10

This unhappy country is still torn
by discord and being drenched in fra
ternal blood. The end none can fore
tell. The Madrid Government does
not seem to be making material head
way against its enemies, either the
Carlists or the insurgents. The dis
patches are so conflicting, not to say
incomprehensible, that we omit them.

French Republicans Hopeful
PARIS, Oct. 23.-At the cabinet
council to-day, II was resolved that
the state Of the country does not re-
quire an early meeting Of the assem-
bly,, but that the ministry Is ready TO
accept the decision of the permanent
commission on this point.
The deputies of the left center have
adopted by unanimous vote, q resOlu-
I ton IN favor OF q conservative rspub-
/ lie. VI. Say, on behalf Of the left cen
/ ter, refused TO listen to the overtures
/ of Duke SandifTerel Pasquicr. for a
| coalition with the right center. NJ.
! Periere, whose intentions were previ-
oUsly doubtful, has declared in favor
of the republic. The mOnarchists are
| less hopeful.
And the following:
PARIS, Oct. 2G.-Thirtv former
Deputies of AIsace and Lorraine have
signed an address ii the Assembly in
favor Of the Republic.
Irritation in the Provinces.
Frequent meetings of Republican
Deputies are held. The machina-
tions Of the Royalists are causing
great irritation in the provinces. Re
publican petitions. although prohib-
tied by the projects, are circulating
everywhere, and are uumerously
signed by the most influential citi-
zens.
Republican Municipal Victories.
PARIS. Oct. p. Elections for NUM-
cipal Offices in several places yestcr-
day, resulted generally in Republi-
can success.
The conflict between the now mu-
tual MOnarchists and the Republicans,
will be fierce in the Assembly, when
ever that body meets. The issue is eL-
Ceedingly doubtful as there is no lon
ger any doubt as to the cooperation /
of the Impcrialist with the Repabi- |
cans, in the final contest. If gene |
raj election Is held, and a new assem-
bly, elected, there IS no doubt but /
what the MOnarchical party would be /
in large minority, and probably a
large majority OF Republican men,
bers returned. But if 4 plc5iscits IS
resOrted TO, as urged by the Imperial
its, the restoration Of the Empire is
almost certain.

tructive prarie fires occurred IN Min
nessota and Iowa last week. In the
fsrmer State heaviest loser took place
IN Martin county, houses, barns, sta
bles, grain, hay, and trees having a
like been consumed in the track Of
the fire. The village OF Jackson,
MINI, had narrow escape from the
fire, as the flames stopped only within
a short distance of the place, n ravine
checking its further progress. No loss
of life is reported by these fires. The
cOutlagratiOn in Saline county Neb.,
which on Tuesday last caused the death
by burning Of seven school children
and of the mother Of one of the chill
dren, is supposed to have originated
by sparks from locomotives. The
flames at the spot where the children
We're overtaken were ! mile in width,
and the grass was very high. In con
