CHICAGO, Dec. 21.-Prices on change took
another downward whirl to-day, wheat declin-
ing nearly two cents, corn one cent, oats half
a cent, rye half cent, barley three cents, pork
fifteen to twenty cents and lard five to ten
cents. This heavy and determined break COM
ing on top of yesterdays decline, and the
steady fall of the past two weeks, caused con-
siderable nervousness, and the feeling was
quite panicky. There were scores of rumors
afoat affecting the standing of some of the
smaller commission firms, but most of them
are without foundation. So far as known at
present the only firms which have suspended
are Gardner, Stone g. Co. and J. P. Taylor.
Their statement cannot be obtained, but friends
say they will settle up in full and continue
business. Liabilities probably small in both
cases.

tested against the attempt to press the bill
through notwithstanding large number of
absentees.
Debate was continued at length, during
which Mr.. Wood said that in the former re-
funding law one-half of per cent. was al.
lowed, which was to cover commission and all
expenses of printing and issuing bonds. In
this bill one e-quarter of per cent. was allowed
for the cost of disposing of bonds, but that
did not include the cost of printing. Clahin
remarked that the cost of printing would be
about one-quarter of l per cent.
Mr. Russell-Then let us call it printing,
because an allowance for commission leads to
abuses. He wanted to know whether any pro-
vision of the bill looked to developing of in

Mr.. Wood replied that the bill protected the
treaty in that respect and that the provision
was made for the adjustment of interest
Mr. Randall remarked That he had been un.
able to find out from the treasury department
the amount of double interest paid out in the
refunding process of 1879 and he asked wheth-
er Mr.. Wood could furnish information
Mr.. Wood said he could not.
Mr.. Randall concluded by saying he wished
to facilitate the treasury in this matter That
every Democratic member had the same de-
sire, and that the House would fail in its duty
if it did not provide the necessary legislation to
meet the bonds falling due in July. he wanted
however, TO have the Law guarded in three fol

paid; no double interest to be allowed; and ben

THE Garfield and Arthur club of st.
Clairsville made the first and final DEM
onstration of the. campaign in this place,
on Saturday evening, and considering
the very disagreeable weather and mud
dy condition of the streets, it was a
grand success. The evening was rainy
and it was about determined to postpone
the marching until after Garfield was
elected, when from the west end a party
of mounted men who had come from
Wheeling township, was seen approach
ing. Encouraged by the example our
boys resolved to face the rain and wade
the streets.
Under command of C. W. Carroll, with
corps of aids, line was formed at the
west end of town, two hundred or more
torch-bearers falling in. the St.Clairsville
Cornet Band, Burlington and Geller's
and the colored drum corps, paraded the
principal streets, presenting a very fine
appearance. There were carried in the
procession several fine tranparencies, eX-
ecuted by Capt. f. NJ. Cowen, which add
ed materially to the display.
We regret to say that parcel of rude
boys, encouraged and assisted by some
of older growth, on the sidewalks, be-
haved in very discreditable manner, ,as
the procession moved along. The beha-
vior towards the Democratic procession
on Monday night, was in marked con-
trast to that of Saturday evening, and
we are assured that decent Democrats
noticed the difference,

Godey's Lady's Book for November

Godey's Lady's Book for November
Is full of interesting matter. Darley's
facile pencil gives US another scene from
Dickens works, Little Nell and her
grandfather escaping from the fair
The old mans eager face and stumbling
hurry, the child's fearful backward
glance, are in strong contrast to the
careless groups in the background. The
whole scene is lifelike, and one of the
best "Darley's" yet given in this ever
popular magazine. In the Novelty Page
we have some new and quaint designs
for the new fancy work, etching en-
broidery, and, as usual, page after page
of hints for ladies' costumes. The liter
ary matter is fully up to its usual stand
ard of excellence. Christian Reid's pop
ular novel is continued, and there are
capital stories and poems from the pens
of Margaret Vandegrift Augusta De
Bubna, Lee G. Hardy, and other well
known writers. We learn that Godey's
Lady's Book will contain complete
novel in every number in 1881, and that
each issue will be complete in itself.
We will furnish the CHRONICLE and
Godey's Book for one year at the low
price of SO 80 on application at this
Office.
