THE COTTON MARKET.
Pertinent Facts to a Great EviI-Giv-
ing Cotton a Fictitious Value by
Gambling In 1t.

The New York Erening Post, of Friday,
by a prominent broker of that city concern
ing the present condition OF trade generally,
from which the following in reference to the
cotton market is excerpted and reproduced
as very pertinent: "The dealings in the Cot
ton Exchange are now the heaviest ever
known. At one call last week on the Ex-
change one hundred and ten thousand bales
were sold, aggregating value OF s., 500 900,
which was the largest operation
ever done at one single call of the Ex-
chauge. That our Exchange dealings are
purely speculative is shown by the fact that
hundreds of millions of bales OF cotton change
hands every year, and we only raise about
six million bales in ali The cotton men
have found out, just as the grain men have,
that it is poor policy to turn away toward
other fields our best customers by high prices.
England is now receiving just twice as much
cotton from India it has received before,
and the cotton-p'an anting in India and
Egypt will probably be greatly increased
by this encouragement. Next year cotton
will rule lower than ever in Liverpool.
Our policy Of giving cotton fictitious value
by gambling in it, is simply paying pre-
MUM 10 oihEr cotton growing countries to
com. into the market with cotton. 1t is
helping along our rivals. Piowing for the
planting in March has begun in the SoHth,
so that we may have another enormous crop
before we succeed in getting off our present
surplus"

CINCINNATI, February 2O.-Heavy rain
has been falling all morning. The river at
II o'clock is ffty-fve feet, and rising at the
rate of two inches an hour. All the cellars
below Third street are fo1ded, practically
suspending business in that part of the city.
A great force is kept busy removing goods
The Plum street passenger depot is inacces-
sible, and trains deliver passengers at Wood
street. Maddux & Hobart's distillery and
the Globe rolling mills have been compelled
to cease opers stions. The former have driven
away all their stock. Other distillers in
the same locality will be compelled to close
to-day. If the rain should stop now it is es-
timated that there will be five feet more of a
raise. What will come with more rain
would make the highest water ever known.
Nigh.-The river is ffty-seven feet and
still rising. 1t has been raining hard all
day, and is raining tonight, with prospect
of continuing. The river is rising at the
rate of one inch per hour, and is already the

A DEAD BABY
Found by a Lot OF Children fn a Cigar
Bsx at the Foot of n Tree.

Sunday Officer Randolph noticed a num-
Der of children playing IN a vacant lot ad-
joining Mr.. F. S. Davis's place, between Pom
totoc and Vance streets, near the bayou.
They were dancing under a tree when they
discovered a soft spot of earth at the roots of
the tree, and happening to dig
into it, they hit upon something
hard, which being taken out proved to be a
cigar-box. The officer examined the box
and found that it contained baby. There
was no clue whatever to the parents of it, or
how it came to its death. Esquire Spelman
being summoned held an inquest, and the
verdict of the jury was that it came to its
death from premature birth.

From Catfish Point.

CATFISH POINT, Miss, February Il, 1882.
To the Editors of the Appeal:
The river at this point is twelve inches
over the high water mark OF 1874, and about
three and a half inches over the mark of
1876. 1t is rising at the rate of two and
half inches in twenty-four hours. 1t is the
biggest water we ever had. The levees in
many places are brimming full, and all that
is needed to complete the job of destruction is
a storm. few hours of rain to wash off
the fresh mud piled up on top of the levee,
or a wind TO cause the waves to roll against
the fresh dirt, would very soon put us beyond
all hope. We are poorly prepared for
overflow, very few people having skiffs or
dugouts., NJ. ROWLAND.
