GENERAL REMARKS-This has been an
other hot day, the hard rain which fell at /
o'clock not cooling the atmosphere much. The
usual amount of summer business is being
carried on.
The sales Of Cotton to-day were only 425 bales,
the market ruling dull, owing to the unfavor-
able advices from abroad.
Owing to the small supply of the better grades
Of Flour they are held very firm, but there is no
quotable advance in prices. The sales footed
up ATS barrels.
The improvement In Corn Meal noticed by us
in our Tuesdays report is barely maintained.
The supply and demand are fair. The re-
ported sales amounted to only 1875 bbls at from
50 $500 As p Dbl.
The sales to-day OF Corn we're only 1900 sacks
at from 48@50c p bushel.
The Provision market here continues to be
favoraby affected by the encouraging reports
from the West, and the market rules strong at
$40 50 " Dbl for Pork-one sale of so bbls having
been made at $40 OK.
Holders of Dry Salt Meats do not manifest
strong desire to sell their property and prices
have hardened.
The supply of Bacon Offering is insignificant.
and prices asked are h@Ac in advance of our
last quotations. With a fair demand the feeling
Is steady.

nal through the day under the effect of unfa-

SUMMARY.

From what precedes it follows
That the loan is negotiated with the sole
object Of Equidating all former debts.
That 1t represents the liabilities Of the go
ctety of the Roman Catholic Church" which are
thereby unified and consolidated with re-
duced interest.
That it is secured By special mortgage en-
properties worth five times as much as the
amount borrowed, and therefore amply suffI-
Gent to guarantee both the payment of interest
and the REDEMPTION Of the capital.
Consequently the Mortgage Bonds of the Dfo-
cese OF New Orleans constitute first class in-
vestment, with moral and material securities
but seldom offered to capitalists.

At this late hour the agitation of the "corn
kitchen" question by American visitors at the
Paris Exposition emphasizes the great mis-
take made in overlooking 1T at the beginning.
Corn and its various preparations form so i'm
portant a part Of our productions that nothing
would seem to be of greater advantage to us
than to teach people of other countries it's
value as food. Several offers were made by
various American citizens to run at their own
expense kitchen which should serve food
made out of corn meal and corn starch In all
its varieties and in the best manner, asking
only the privilege of being under the auspices
OF the American department. But this was
refused, and the result is the loss of one of the
best opportunities ever offered to extend the
sale of this great American staple.

eyes upon the reports he wishes to refer to

In an article in a recent number of the
Scientific American, the influence exerted by
one mill is forcibly presented. According to
this, single wooden mill in Lawrence pro-
duces every week 100000 yards of dyed or
printed cloths. 1t pays 100000 week as
wages. It employs $500 persons, paying them
at an average rate of ninety-fve cents day
to women and girls, and 81 40 day to men.
1t consumes 500 tons of starch, and expends
100000 for printing and dying materials
every year. The wool it requires calls for the
Heeees of 10000 head of sheep. 1t secures
food, clothing, and usually respectable saw
ings to $500 persons and their dependents
less than 10000 souls altogether. This, with
the freights paid for transportation of its
materials and products, shows what one mill
contributes to the wealth, power and prosper
ity of the country. The wooden industry of
the whole country amounts to more than
$500 ,000, 900 year. There are nearly 1000
wooden mills in Ohio and other Western
States.

man sitting at the entrance of his store fast
asleep while a considerable neighboT stood
over him tanning his heated brow and driving

an evidence of the stagnation in business which

Only about million of the newly coined
daddy dollars have been put in circulation
thus far, and the treasury officials declare
that they have done their best The whole
amount of the new coinage, up to date, is
about S8,OOO,OOO, and over s.. ZOO, 900 remain in
the treasury. 1t is expected that before re-
sumption day the department will have re-
serve of sixteen or eighteen millions in silver
dollars, which will serve as a very effective
breakwater against any run" that may be
made for coin in exchange for greenbacks
leaving the accumulated gold for use in the
payments of interest on the public debt
Probably this is the expectation and intention
of Mr. Sherman, though he takes particular
pains, occasionally, to inform the public Of
the great efforts he is making to put the new
dollars in circulation

Mr.. Hester, the secretary of the Cotton Ex-
change, received yesterday letter from Mr..
p. Wood Perry, our commissioner to the
Paris Exposition, announcing that with great
difficulty he had succeeded in getting'a place
for the display Of the types of cotton sent on
from our Exchange At first he was met with
a positive refusal, but on demanding that it
should be put in writing, the managers found
aspace for the display Of the samples Of our
great staple. The commissioner states that
many articles sent from Louisiana will fail
to be exhibited, owing to the want of space in
that department of the Exposition building.
From this we are led to believe that there has
been either gross mismanagement on the
part of the gentlemen having charge Of this
Worlds Fair, or that our would be exhibitors
have been very dilatory in sending forward
their articles.
Mr.. Perry has sent to the Exchange two
small samples OF foreign cottons, one from
Africa, sent from Portuguese colony, and the
other from the Feeiee Islands, forwarded by
the Australian authorities. The cotton from
these islands is said to have a longer staple
than that of any other country.

"sIFhe opera is full of fan from begin
ming to end, the audience being kept in
continual laughter and good humor. The
little men and women are full of natural
grace and coquetry. Miss Jennie Quigley
especially succeeds in establishing herself
from the first; she seems to be a vocalist
OF the higher order, full ofgrace, piquancy
and actually trimming over with life.
Admiral Dot also finds great favor; his
solos are very fine, also his performance
on the snare drum. The rest OF the CON.
pany fill their respective parts most nc.
Ceptablv, the Giant included, who oil
course more than fills his part.
