CIarksViIIe Tobacco Market
OFFICE OF THE CHRONICLE, !
CLARKSVII.LE, August 81, 1877.

Our Tobacco season is rapidly drawing to
close, warehouse stocks being nearly ex-
hausted, and receipts now being very light.
Our offerings this week were 254 hogsheads.
The market was tolerably steady, though
there was less disposition to buy, as is us
ually the case towards the close of the sea-
son. Warehousemen would consult the
interest of their shippers by making a clean
closing out of all their stocks, and win no
doubt do SO, where it is left to their discre-
ton. We quote:

We learn that the prospects for a

Prompt entrance is most desirable.
Students often fail i'm their studies
from entering a month or two be-
hind their classes, they find it diff

aged and become idle. Then let eV-
erybOdy enter promptly at the OPEN

commercial department now forms
an important feature of the institu-
ton. The graduates of the school
are taking high rank wherever they
go and many of the undergraduates
are giving proof of their training,
both here and elsewhere in the va
rious walks of life, both professional
and commercial.
We are pleased also to notice the
progress of the new Cabinet build
ing during the past week. 1t seems
to be coming out Of the ground by
magic. JnO. Bradley is evidently
pushing the work ahead. 1t is eX-
