COTTON FAILURE.
Suspension of W. R. Preston 81 Co.
Statement by Mr.. Preston-The Firm
Expecr to Resume.

Statement by Mr.. Preston-The Firm
Expect to Resume.
NEW YORK, Feb.-The principal topic of
conversation in the grain and cotton trades to-
dav was the failure of w. r. Preston q Co.
This firm occupied a very high position, could
receive any amount of credit and its suspen-
sion took every one by surprise. Mr.. Preston
this morning said the details of the affair pub
lished in the newspapers were exaggerated.
He said that instead of $1,000 bales of cotton
which it was reported they held, they only had
about 10 900, and therefore they did not sus-
tain as large aloss as stated, 100000. Yes
terday they sold only 5000 or 1000 bales, while
it was reported that they sold 75, 600 bales. They
were commission merchants and not specula-
tors. He had some interest in grain in Chi
cago, but it was not large one. They were
OH both sides on lard to the amount of 5000
terces, while it was reported that they had
balance as large as that on the "long" side
alone. AS to their wheat, they owned some,
but not nearly 100000 bushels. There could
not possibly, he said, be much loss, as they
were margiDed right up to the market up to
Wednesday night, and the floss would only be
on the decline yesterday. Mr.. Preston stated
that he could not give the names of any of his
largest creditors or the amount of his liabili-
ties and assets. Superintendent Grant of the
Produce Exchange gave the firm very high
recommendation, and said they stood well in
The estimation of all the members of the ex
change. Mr.. Preston expects to be able to re-
sumo business in a month or two.

A Congressman's Complaint.

The withdrawal of the nomination of Henry
B. Nichols to be Postmaster atNorfolk, Va,
has led Congressman Dezendorf to send long
letter to local paper in which he says that
the fight is not against Nichols, but against
himself, and that Senator Malone is making
a determined effort to crush him in his district
He asserts that he ought to be allowed to have
some influence upon the appointment of the
Postmaster at his own home i'll Norfolk and
that Democratic Senators in the South are al
lowed to name the Postmasters at their home
offices, provided they name responsible Repub-
licans. He adds that Postmasters have been
removed and others appointed in his districts
upon Senator Mahone's recommendation with
out informing him of the desire to make a.
change, and insist upon his right to control the

HEALTH HINTS.

DON'T forbid the blessed sun from en-
tering your windows. Don't stay in a
house that has bad smell in it.
Use gargle of a goblet half-full of
water with a teaspoonful of common
baking soda dissolved in it, for a sore
throat.
Variety of diet is of importance TO
health; the stomach gets weary of repe-
tition of the same every day. Hurry at
meals is to be avoided-eat slowly and
chew it we'll.
Bodily toll and manual labor can be
best supported by vegetable diet, as
bread, porridge, ETC., with the addition
Of milk, eggs, butter and cheese; meat
is much inferior to these as a supplier
Of strength.
