Gen. Sherman was at Manitou Springs,

BUSINESS IN NEW YORK.-A letter to
the Philadelphia Ledaer says:

Merchants are looking for busy times next
week. and from present indications thew will
not be disappointed. The jobbing and com
mission houses nearly all report a large in
crease of orders, not only from the North
west, but also from New England and the
Southern States on the Atlantic seaboard.
The Texas steamers continue to take out as
much merchandise as they can carry, and If
the pestilence should spare that part of the
country the demands upon them will be con-
tinned until late in the season. Savannah,
Charleston and Norfolk are also liberal pnr-
chasers. As for New Orleans and the Missis-
sippi Valley but few orders can be expected
from that quarter until late in October, by
which time the fever, doubtless, will have
disappeared.

A RARE BoOK.-A copy of that quaint old
English dictionary, known as Bailey's, is now
seldom seen. Il was first issued about 172S
and for three-quarters of a century held its
place. 1t is now a literary curiosity, and
much valued by book collectors. In it can
be found the word Honorifeabilitudiaity,
word which would knock dow spelling
school of these times like ten strike; il means
honorabieness, and the word honor does just
as well. The dedication to the royal family
is in Latin, and the introduction is very inter
esting, containing the Lord prayer in Saxon.

FREIGHT RATES,
Protest Made Against ExOrbitant Rates
Charged on Freight Shipped to
Mississippi.

GRENADA, Miss, June 2, 1873.
EDITORS APPEAL-Again allow me to ask
you, through your valuable and most inter-
estIng columns, to make one more appeal to
the merchants of Memphis to use every effort
to reduce the exorbitant rates of freight on
the Mississippi and Tennessee railroad and
the Mississippi Central. If they do not take
some active step, and that very soon, to force
these two roads to give US the same rate of
freights that they have given New Orleans,
Cairo, and other com peting points, our Mis-
sissippi trade is lost. We are now forced to
sell What few goods we do at such a small
profit that it is almost useless to travel the
road. Every merchant from Jackson, Ten
nessee, TO jackson, Mississippi, prefers trad
ing with Memphis to any other point and
without a change in freights Memphis 5 finest
trade is lost Such discrimination in freights
is unreasonable, and it does seem to me that
the merchants of Memphis could convince
the railroad authorities that their rates of
freight are ruinous to our city and to the in
terests OF the roads. Memphis receives and
ships more goods to her size than any city in
the United States, and why the roads persist
in trying to rob her out of her rights is GER
tainiy mystery to me. We sell the Central
road nearly all of her bagging and ties, but
without change in freights we lose it all.
