Mars aud It's Satellites.

An excellent opportunity Is afforded
sky.gazsrs to witness the satellites that
have danced attendance upon the planet
Mars since time immemorial. The outer
satellite was observed at the National
Naval Observatory about the middle OF

to bs very near its predicted place. The
satellites will become brighter as the
planet continues to approach the earth.
and during the coming tive months the
time will be most favorable. When last
observed the planet showed an apprs.
ciable fattening al the POLES. This year
the satellites are considerably brighter
than during 1879, and possibly tsle-
scopes Of moderate sizs may DO used to
advantage.

GENERAL Trade,

The market is bare Of corn and oats,
none in the hands Of our dealers aud
retailers nearly out. The demand is,
however, so limited that commission
men say a thousand sacks of either
would be an overstock, and buyers
could not be found for it. The crops
being laid by, the work stock have for
several weeks past been turned out to
browse on their own account, and
there is little or no shipping move
ment. CornmeaI is higher in the
West, but the stock here is lib
eraI and dealers are selling dray-icad
lots at 80 80 per barrel. Trade is in
the main very quiet, no. activity rul-
'ug in any department, but merchants
are preparing for an early and active
fall .-afic. The condition Of the cot
ton crop is matter of concern,
though as yet the dry spell has not in
iured it to any serious extent in the
valleys. The hills are catching it
