Cotton has advanced here during
the past week &c on ordinary and / to
Ito per pound on all other grades.
Mr.. J. N. BOlen, Of Murray, KY,
and correspondent of the Paducah
Daily News is in the city on a brief
visit.
The annual report Of Postmaster
General Maynard for the present year,
ending June 30, 1880, published in
neat pamphlet form, has been received
at this Office through Mr.. Sim l..
Barinds, agent Of the Western associ-
ated press.
The weather bulletins, issued this
morning by the signal service depart
ment, announces occasional light rain
or snow as probable here and rain
further south, with a warmer temper
AZURE and variable winds likely.
The sensation about the river
wharf at present is the caving of the
bluff below the boat landing, and the
unloading Of salt on the wharf. The
latter is worrying the city Authorities,
the consignees and river men gener-
ally.
1t was raining nearly all over the
south between here and the gulf coast
early this morning, and the measure
ment of fall last night ranged from a
quarter of an inch TO considerably
less. 1t was not raining at Little
Rock or above there along the
Arkan'as river.
Cotton picking has been wholly
suspended for more than ten days past.
No darby was ever known to gather
cotton to any remarkable extent, while
snow lay on the ground, and as long
as the Aeecy mantle remains, the ieecy
staple will stay in its pods or rot,
chiefly the latter.
The "SOlid South" a weekly paper,
with w. H. Herman, the high-pressure
writer, late Of the 'Okalons States
is expected to make its first appear
anee a week from tomorrow, its ad-
vent being postponed a week. Mr..
Blalack is to be publisher, and for
awhile it will be known among journ-
alists as a latent outside.
The street cars ran in pairs aud
threes on several routes after dark
last night. They were forced to this
by diving into mudholes now and
then, and drivers Of the hindmost
cars we're needed to dig them out.
One driver remarked that it was worth
$40 per day to work in the mud at
lifting cars on the track, but he didn't
receive that much.
Softer weather up the country
causes produce men to hope for an
opening of the rivers hence to St
Louis. At present it costs Coo to get
a barrel Of -four or meal from st.
Louis to this market. Last year and
the year before we had local mills to
grind our meal at home, but the i'll
starred enterprise proved Improbable,
and now our market must receive its
supply from St. Louis or up the Ohio
river.
A steamer from below landed tive
hundred tens of railway iron across
the river yesterday to complete the
line extending from Helena to For
rest City. In a few days our enter
prising Helenisn neighbors will roll
over the rail through to Little Rock
in a hurry and not be obliged to come
to this city, as has long been the Gus.
tom. A handsome opera house is also
nearly completed at Helena, and ere
long they will be prepared to receive
the Abbott or any other opera troupe
in the same tony style as is done in
large city or town.

A Familiar Female and Her
Racket.

The wsll-known and bloated face Of
Sarah Williams appeared before the
police court this morning. She is one
Of the many women with a history,
She first made her appearance Def re
the court about twelve months ago and
the judge, touched by her modest and
ponitent behavior, released her. She
was again arrested on a charge Of
drunkenness about two weeks later,
however, and locked up for ten days.
She took her confinement to heart,
and with many tears and promises Of
good behavior and a better life, was
released at the end of that time. The
habit grew upon her, however, and she
continues to be re-arrested on another
charge as o 0 as she served out one,
until she lost the last vestige Of shame
and became noted for the extreme
vehemence and fbulness OF her Ian
gauge, and her utter disregard of all
the impulse supposed to animate the
female breast, She was once sen
tenosd to the Island for forty days,
and while going down to the transfer
in a car in charge Of the officer, sud
denly dlVested herself of her clothing
and treated the passengers to a new
version Of the "raquet," a la Soldene.
Her racket was "tumbled to" by the
sSCer, however, and he took her back
to the station. To-day she was toe
sick for trial and will be sent to the
Island.
