On call prices were decidedly higher all
round, except the cornered deals; sales were
fair.
Corn was moderately active, and changes
were slight. A little frmer tone ensued from
strong cables and the reported decrease of
stock in sight; this was partially balanced
by fine weather, and the market closed ia
&c higher than yesterday. On call prices
were very firm, sales were large, and the adj
vance marked in deferred futures. Sales
were made at 6S96S9c May, 67i@68fc

to 694c.
Oats were dull, scarcely active enough to

MORMON POLICY.

1t is worthy of notice that the Mormon
papers have little TO say about the Ed
munds bill, which is now law, and which is
so moderate in its provisions TO be gen.
orally thought inadequate to accomplish
what is required, but which will, In spite of
its moderation, put obstacles in the way of
polygamy and give that kind of criminal
great trouble and disturbance. This quiet
ness on the part of the Mormon press, how
ever, must not be taken for indifference. The
fact is that the Mormons, with their usual
shrewdness, prefer action to more expressions
of Indignation. Though saying little they
are not slow in taking practical measures
Their legislature, in view of the likelihood
of the Edmunds bill becoming law, provided
at the session recently closed for a conven-
ton to meet this month and frame a consti-
tuition with a view to the admission of Utah
as one of the States of the Union. They are
at this moment busy in Washington with
another project which is to have one of the
FIVE commissioners that are TO take the
superintendent OF the elections of that Ter
ritory, chosen from among themselves. They
claim that Mormon interests ought to have
some recognition, which Is true-they ought
to have the recognition accorded to all
breaches of the law. The Mormons are ex-
erting every effort to have their ex-delegate,
Hooper, put in one of the commissioners.
He never had more than one wife, but he is
the confederate of those who have many.
Like the man who never stole, who only sd-
vised and sympathised with those who did,
and who claims, therefore, that he is an hon
est man, Mr.. Hooper is strongly put forward
by the saints as a proper person TO be APP
pointed a commissioner. President Ar
thurs reputation for common sense would be
damagingly risked by such an appointment.

CATFISH POINT, MISS,
Getting Ready TO PIanf-Fears of a
Spring Freshet-The Stock Law.
F rom an Anpeal Correspondent !

From ar Appeal Correspondent
CATFISH POINT, March 2S-One month
ago to-day since the levee broke on Catfish
Point The river began to fall the same day,
and so slow has been the fall that the highest
knobs have just begun to show themselves.
Some of our planters are apprehensive that
the tardy fall will be overtaken by the spring
rise, and thus prevent planting for some time
to come, while others argue that the slow
falling waters indicate freedom from fur
Their trouble in the spring. Our planters are
ready and will gladly seizs the first oppor-
tunity to plant that presents itself, spring
rise or no spring rise. II the fruit crop is
an indication Of the yield of other crops we
will surely be beautifully blessed this year,
for have never seen fruit trees fuller OF
young fruit than they are at present. The
commonly accepted belief among our peo-
pie is that the stock law was passed during
the late session of our legislature. 1t has
produced considerable excitement and de-
bate, and the people are beginning to pre-
pare for the emergency. Many ways and
means are being devised to take care of or
dispose of stock that is not needed for
planting purposes. Some are speaking of
putting their extra stock in Arkansas,
where insxhausiible canebrakes and native
grasses abound. Though the stock law will, of
course, work many disadvantages to us who
have been accustomed all our lives to the
old-fashioned "ten-rail staked and ridered
fence" yet in a short time it will be of
infinite advantage to all concerned, both
man and beast. An old colored man named
Alfred Frazer drowned in the break on
DIR. Rowland's place on the morn
ing of the 9th. The old man
was on his way to get government
rations, and in passing the break lost an oar;
he fastened his frail boat to fence near by,
and stepping out into the water to recover
the oar, walked a few steps in pursuit of it
and went headlong into the deep hole made
by the break. His body has not been found
yet Several of our citizens are quite sick,
many complaining, and the fear is that there
will be great deal of sickness following the
overflow. NABoTH.

GANCE.

When panic occurs everybody is exhort-
cumulating. for the revival of good trade
When the difficulty is over and good times
come again il is forgotten that the same
economy that brought back activity and
business Is necessary to sustain the credit
which is an essential requisite to preserve
activity, and we are at the present moment
indulging in recklessness OF extravaganza
that is sure to bring lowering clouds ending
in fnaal disaster. Trade is good and
finances in a satisfactory condition, and out
side the flooded districts there is promise of
good harvests; but extravaganza is neutral
izing the happy effects of this state of things.
We are nearing the point where our pur-
chases will go beyond our sales. When a
family or mercantile house has more going
out than comes in, the final catastrophe is
certain, and it is just as certain in the case
of a whole nation. Our imports are tread
ing fast on the heels of our exports, and are
increasing in an especial degree in the case
of Injuries. Where the imports aggregated
$51 $40, 900 in 1879 they were $70,919,000 in
$780, and SIS, S45, 900 in 1881, and the rate of
imports at the present time considerably ex-
ceeds the latter figure in proportion. The
following table is eloquent in its lessons;
they show the amounts of the exports of the
last three years of the luxuries named:
