THR EXCHANGES FOR THREE MONTHS OF

changes. compiled by the New York Pub.
lie, for the first quarter of the current year
show IN increase Of one-hali over the cor
responding quarter Of 1879, but a slight
decrease when compared with the pfeced.
ing quarter, the first time for year and a
half that the aggregate in each season has
not outrun the aggregate Of the preceding
quarter. In part this Is due To the transfer
Of crops and commodities in the last three
months Of 1870, but this pause in the swift
advance OF these aggregate exchanges
probably marks q reaction TO more moder-
Ale prices and sounder business methods.
The tidal wave OF trade reached lis hight
In 1879. Il has not begun 70 ebb-that we
NAV well believe Is still distant, but the
upward rush has stopped, and the coun-
try, after iall In prices will be able % go
on doing business on sale easls. Gom;;
pairing the first quarter OF this year and
the ffst quarter OF 1879 In detail, New
York as usual shows the largest advance,
90 per cent. Chicago Philadelphia and
Pittsburgh stand next with an increase oil
one.halt. For the first time IN months
san Francisco shows small advance, 0
per cent, an increase which agrees close
" With The accounts Of slightly reyiving
industry and trade there. In general
terms the aggregate clearinghouse ex-
changes show that distributing points on
the Atlantic seA.coaSt have made the
largest advance in the nominal money
value OF their transactions in comparison
With last year, manufacturing eenters
next, with the great central cities next
after these.

n. Y. Bulletin Of Wednesday.
A fair sort Of business has been trans
acted for this early portion Of the week,
and mostly on q basis which would indi.
cate about the former general range Of
values for pretty much every grade OF
wool. In fact, so far as prices are con.
cerned, there Is really no change as yet,
and 1t would be quite difficult to find q
sample Of useful or attractive quality, ex.
cept upon limit Of about the rates for
some time ruling. There Is, however, a
noticeable change in the temper Of the
market, and the general indications much
more favorable to buyers than even one
week ago, with an almost certainty that
should holders seek to realize upon their
stocks It would be impossible 10 avert q
break In the cost Of both domestic and
foreign descriptions. Supplies OF domestic
are moderate and the more desirable par
GELS appear to be pretty well controlled ;
but foreign woods are In fair supply, with
mere open offering OF the clothing
grades, and holders will give fair bids
much consideration, while the demand
shows many evidences Of growing caution.
Operating for Investments at O stand, the
trade here preterring that speculation
should be confined to those who are slim
ulating the interior markets by what ap-
pears unwarranted bids for the new clips
not yet taken from the sleeps back, and
on consumptive accounts the demand has
most certainly fallen of. To some extent
this may be attributed to the supplies
now going TO the mills on previous pur-
chase, but evidences Of greater caution
among manufacturers are not wanting.
Prices for goods are not proving as salts
factory as hoped for; neither Is the sale
fully up TO expectations, and hints at
shutting down somewhat on production
may be heard. Taken altogether, wool,
in COMMON with many other Of our lead
ing staples, commences 70 lose the force OF
the "boom;" and while, as above noted,
there Is as yet no radical reaction on the
line OF value, the selling interest occupied
much less independent position, and are
even willing TO admit that to increase the
sale oftheir suppliesi 1t would be necessary
to shade of somewhat. Adyices from all
sources Of supply, both domestic and
foreign, continue strong and relatively
above the distributing markets,

A young man stood listlessIy watching
some anglers on bridge. He was poor
and detected. At last approaching a bas-

sighed;
'If now had those / would be happy.

The proposal was gladly accepted. The
old man was gone so long that the young
man began to be impatient. In the mean.
while the hungry fish snapped greedily at
the baited hook and the young man lost
all his depression in the excitement Of
pulling them in; and when the owner OF
the line returned he had caught q large
number. Counting out from them as
many as were in the basket and presenting
them to the young man the old fisherman
said:
"Ifultill my promise from the fish you
caught toteach yon when you see others

in fruitless whining, but cast line Tor

of the store which is being prepared for
the Palace cigar store. The furniture
has arrived.
The Art Loan Exhibition was we'll at
tended. They commenced having re-
freshments in the BoOkwalter building.
Mr.. s. M. Gillingham furnished some ex-
cellent ice cream.
The Duquesne Blues, gave grand
street parade last evening, it being their
sixth anniversary, which they celebrated
at Funk's Hall, and all enjoyed them
selves to the fullest extent.
We announced last evening that the
City Council have leased the rooms of
the Bookwslter Block, for five years,
but we have since learned that Mr..
Bookwalter has withdrawn his propo-
sition.
About 10 o'clock Tuesday night, as
Mr.. James Kennedy was walking along
Water, from Columbia to North street,
he was attacked by five rufians and
robbed of $23 in money, three silk hand
kerchiefs, a railroad pass, and several
other things. We learn from him that
he resides in Washington G. H., and is
in the city seeking employment.
We announced on Tuesday evening
that the headquarters of the STAR was
on East Main street, over Johnston's
cigar store, and last evening We an
nounced it at No. SO East High street.
We would say for the benefit of our
readers that the headq quarters are at both
places. The former we occupy as an
Office with Mr. G. H. Berry, pension at,
torney, and the latter as the residence OF
the Springfield representative.
