There has been duh work upon tho Stock Ex-
change to-day. Firmness was the exception and
weakness the rule. From the Alpha OF the opening
to the Omega of the close prices dwindled. AS
matter of fact. the lowest quotations were made at
the finish. Almost everybody believes that higher
prices will be attained in the early spring. but there
is good deal of uncertainty ss to what may occur
between now and then. Much of this uncertainty Is
founded upon what Is likely to be the future rates
for money. II loans continue easy the prices of
stocks will probably be sustained money is made
dear they are likely to droop 1t is not probable
that this year will prove exception to any pre-
vous one. but that, usual. the "squaring OF the
yards" in commercial circles at the end of
tho twelve months business will necessitate such
demand for ready funds - to create . temporary
stringency In the money market. With tho stock
market left In tho hands Of ephemeral traders las 1t
II 1t presently and with the fact that the greater
dealers would rather 1t 60 down than not lin or
der to afford them chance to buy in at low prices).
tho prospects Of immediate advance are not nat
tcring. As far look into the future there
seems every probability of decisive advance in the
spring. but meanwhile It is toss of o penny
whether prices from day to day. are to be higher or
iower. For to-day. at least there general SIM
mcrinR down Of values. Scarcely . stock upon the
list but showed at the end taperng of from open
ing prices. Among the most conspicuous stocks to
decline was that of the c.. G. and l. c. road. which
was weak the day through. general feeling Of dis
appointment among holders exists at the result Of
the bondholders' meeting on Saturday. 1t was gen.
orally expected that compromise with the Pennsyl-
vania company had been arrived at. but it
appears that the litigation is to continue
and that appeal by the Pennsylvania
Railroad will be made to tho higher courts
There was no decided evidence of strength this
morning in any stocks upon the list Sometimes
they held their own. but in most cases they faded
away; not seriously. but sufficient to make closing
prices some fractions below opening ones Under
these conditions. and with wet blanket sort Of in
duence over It, the market closed. Our despatch
from Philadelphia describes the market there as
being heavy. with prominent sellers Of Reading and
Pennsylvania Railroad. The Lehigh stocks were
lower and the Northern Pacihcs neglected and un-
changed in price. The entire list showed al aver
age decline OF about per cont. Messrs. Cad

The Frce Ferry.

The ferry on Savannah River, formerly
known as Hanks Ferry, which was pur-
chased by the Town Council of Anderson
last fall and made free to all persons COM
ing to Anderson with cotton or other pro-
duce from Georgia and returning home, has
recently been furnished with new fiat of
large size and excellent construction. 1t is
the best, or as good ferry as can be found
on the river, and by it the road to Hartwcll
is from q mile to mile and half shorter,
and equally as good as can be found on any
other route. The little old fat which was
there before brought over five hundred
bales of cotton to Anderson last season, and
with the new facilities the merchants may
expect all increased influx of Georgia cotton
during the coming year. Anderson'is the
best cotton and supply market in upper
South Carolina, and the enterprise and
thrift of her business men is destined to
still further extend the area of trade which
she commands. The life and progress of
the town is displayed in the purchase of
this ferry, which is used as an induccment
to trade. 1t shows the whole country that
the town has been revivifed, and is deter
mined to afford the very best facilities tc all
who wish to buy or sell. Groceries, dry
goods, clothing, hardware, furniture and all
articles of merchandise can be purchased
here as cheaply as in any surrounding
market, and the quality of goods sold is re-
liable and satisfactory.
