That the Heather Chinee are not
to be done out of their gambling
pleasures by the raids made upon
them in their dens, was clearly seen
by reporter yesterday Sauntering
along one of the alleys Of Chinatown,
his notice was attracted by the un-
usual amount of business being done
by one of the fortune-tellers, who
locates his stall at corner, to attract
passers-by. The rapidity with which
each votary. took his departure struck
the reporter as something out of the
common, as the practice with the pro-
fessors Of luturity is TO keep their vic
tins in suspense before letting them
know their fate.
Approaching the stall he discover
cd what to casual observer appears
nothing but a small box containing
Chinese writing material, but in this
case the innocent-looking box had a
small slide on the top. The slide be-
ing pushed aside showed small card
inscribed with characters denoting sn
animal, fish, or q reptile, also rudt
representation of the subject Each

stake, namely, a dime, guesses the

Should he fortunate enough to hi

but the chances Of winning are s,
much against him that the bank rare

There is but little demand from
borrowers able to offer acceptable en-
dorsement for loans, and the banks,
owing to the prospect of an early &C.
tivity in exchange, are careless on
this score, hence their rates are s per
cent for discounts, except where par
ties desiring to negotiate are able to
dictate terms. The harvest season
of exchange is now near by, and the
banks will then have use for all the
capital they can command. At pres
ent the financial situation is Il of
ease. Currency is in ample supply
for all legitimate requirements.
Exchange is steady at par selling
fog drafts on New York and New Or
leans. Buying rates on the latter
point are tc Of, while cotton bills on
the east are taken by the banks at /
to &c discount, without or with grace
There has been something Of a squirt
in several classes of southern secnri
ties, which for many a long day have
lain dormant in leading eastern mar
kets. a few days ago in New York
considerable business was done in Ar
kansas railway aid bonds at from s to
8, while Arkansas 6's funded changed
hands at 20. 1t is evident that hold
ers yet hope to realize something on
these securities, even though the Ar
kansas supreme court has declared
them valueless. A lot of the Arkansas
Central road bonds sold at 8. This
line extends from Helena to Claren-
don on White river.
The gross earnings of the Louisville
and Nashville railway for the third
week in September are reported at
$2O6, 400, an increase of $Sf,523 over
the same week last year; and from
July 18th to September 2lst, $2,1C7,-
200, an increase over last year of $9Ol,-
7O6. The stock was quoted yesterday
up to $l57a,an advance from l43 during

share of the highest point it ever
touched, which was in April last,
