The Fall of the Year.

The season indicated by the above cap
ton is about on hand. The leaves begin to
wther and the grass to die. The cotton
flower is rapidly maturing into defense
against that grim "winter of our dlscon-
TENT of which one of our Englist ancestry

ouy Many things indicate fall-not only
the maturing fruits and vegetables, but the
increased demand for beefsteaks ana sauc
sages, which demonstrates the fact that beef
cattle and hogs are falling. The flowers in
bloom put on their loveliest mantles, show
ing that, like the swans, their last great
efi6rt 20 please is the best-thelr most sur
nossing. Corn has fallen-in fact and meta.
ptor, it is cheaper in price per bushel ana
more obtainahle in liquid form than at
any previous period of the. season: Many
have fallen under,the false impression that
il would be better to lay in their supply in
its most condensed form. These people
have acted on mistaken idea but rise the
next day in the mayors court where their
ill-shaped ideas are always Incredibly DIS
counted.
Wheat has fallen-at the side OF the
reaper which sends it to the mlilCput IL

and the far-iamed baking powders OF nu-
merous advertisers. Still it indicates the
fall for this year, as it will take another
year to give the crop chance Tor sell
assertion. The merchants, by their adver-
tisements, evince their idea OF the approach
ing season-the lawyers by. their return

their speculation in qvinine, and the snow
! folks by their ACCOMPLISHMENTS of approach-
ing entertainments. Who buys a pair OIL
summer breeches or a straw hat nowY VINO
