citizen happened t) be delegate from
Texas, who had killed several men, aud Of

boy received an ovation. The mayor made
a neat little speech on presenting him with

cline Of so 10c was scored in the after
noon. Although the demand on the call

we're fully as great. Prices inclined in

For the past week, better
business has been transacted in corn than
In any other market. The speculative de-
mand has been good during most of the
week, and the shipping inquiry was also
quite active. The feeling was somewhat
settled, and prices ruled with considerable

large, and the arrivals of the new crop are

below expectations, owing to its da=npness,

the eastern markets sympathized to some
