CISclSSArI, October G.-This week has
added another one 10 the fine weather Ior
the ripening Of corn and the sowing OF
wheat. Still the favorable prospects for
corn do mot operate 10 keep down the price
Of that article. Under the great scarcity OF
No. . mixed corn, tho price Of that grade
ran up to G9c today. Wheat shows at last
a. tendency to higher prices, and good
grades sold as high rs one dollar 10. day.
Transactions, however, have been limited,
and receipts have materially fallen of:
Oats have. likewise shown disposition to
advance Oh spot. Provisions, under tho
conditions Of n light stock, have advanced
and are firmly held. Pork has sold ior
$24 90; lard, Sl3 90; bacon, clear SIT 90.
An unusual impetus has been given TO
nearly all branches Of business by the yery
large attendance at the exposition. Trouble,
however, has fallen upon iron by the strike
which began in two mills today.

Ngw Yonx, October G.-General business
lssomcwl'at quieterthis week owing partly
to tho late stringency in money and
uneasy feeling OH the stock market But
the money market is now easier and stocks
are improving somewhat, and a stimulation
Of trade all over tho country is being felt,

through. .trnde circles. lu dry goods thero
is no material change, but il Is, II anything,
q little 9Nieter ah round. There is m in.
crease Of orders from statesmen on the road,
There isa large increase on the importation
Of foreign dry goods, principally silks and
other expensive fabrics. Importers be.
lieve there will be Il large demand for these
goods this winter, aud with appnrentlv
good reason. The grain market, which has
been dragging heaviIy for sons time, has
become gradually firmer aud made con.
siderable advances, closing strong with
prices well sustained. This appears To- al
descriptions. The American piv iron
market is quiet with little or no new bust
ness reported. Prices are firm and de-
liyeries on old contracts continue e,sy.
The Scotch pig market is quiet though
there have been some few sales at full
figures. Rail business is dull; rumo,s Of
some large transactions cannot be verified,
BALTIMORE.
BALTIMORE, October G.-The beginning
Of the week showed stringent monoy
market, but before the close several banks
made their annual statements, after which
there was considerable relief. The stock
market was depressed. The grain market
was dull and transactions small. Corn
showed more animation than for some
time, especially in November and Decem.
Der, new or old. The week shows an
advance OF 3lc on spot, and about &c on
options. Provisions advanced twice dur-
ing the week, which had the effect 10 con.
tract operations, but the market closed
firm today, with the probability OF = still
further ADVANCE. Sugar showed moro
strength early in tho week and fractional
advance was made, but it could not be
sustained and al grades receded TO Tho
closing prices Of last week. Coffee was
dull, buyers and sellers being so far apart
that only the absolute demands OF the 70.
tail and jobbing trade were supplied at tie
ruling prices Of the past fortnight. Butter
continued firm for best grades and cheese
was moderately active and without change.
Beef cattle were lower yesterday, with Y
very dull market and plenty Of stock on
hand. Hogs are firm ut the highest prices
OF the week and almost the whole recpinta
were taken at the best prices. Sheep and
lambs are plentiful and prices declined,
with nearly five hundred left over. This
demand is noteqnal to the supply, hence
concession on the part OF the sellers. =

IT seems that Secretary Folger is
descendant of the Franklin family,
of Massachusetts, and claims kinship
with Benz Franklin. Writing to a
friend living in Nantucket, lately,
Mr.. Folger related the following
curious and interesting incident:
"When | was in the senate in the
State of New York, Andrew D. White,
president of the Cornell University,
late United States Minister to Vien-
ma, was also a member. After I had

This Years Railroad Building.

The year 1881 was an extraor :
binary one in railroad building.
About nine thousand and three
hundred miles of new track were
laid. This yearly milage is yet un>
precedented in the history of the
country, but it is not likely to re-
main SO long. According to the
Chicago Railway Age, the number
of miles constructed during the
seven months ending with July of
the present year, reaches the un-
paralleled total OF six thousand,
which is doubie the milage reported
at this time last year 1t is not ex-
pected that the rapid rate of increase
shown during the first seven months
of 1882 over the corresponding
period of 1881 will continue to the
end of the present year. But it is
estimated that the total milage of
new road built in 1882 will exceed
ten thousand miles, and reach
nearly, if not quite, thousand more
miles than were built last year. This
is encouraging progress.

the Republicans of Henderson
County for the Office of superin-

the sixth female candidate for that
