SATURDAY IN WALL STREET,
Special Dispatch.
NEW YORK, Feb. 3.--Thc market opened
feverish but gained strength during the first
hour on strong buying of Northwest common
by Osborn and Henry Smiths brokers. Mr..
Chaplin bought 5000 shares and Kemys and
Babcock nearly as much more. Before noon,
however, the current of the market turned
and gradually yielded all around. 1t was
reported that Woerishoiler had turned bear
and thrown his stocks overheard also, that
other members of the bull pool had liqui-
dated.
Later there was news from the west that
the storm had closed up most of the rail-
ways, &C., and upon this another rush to sell
followed, until the market dropped into fit
of semi-panic.
On the second call better feeling pre-
vailed. Delaware and Lackawana and the
Vanderbilts rallied to per cent. Tho only
really strong stock on the list was North
western, which is largely oversold and is sus-
tanned mainly by Henry N. Smith, who is the
largest holder. The market was quieter in
the last hour, the strongest features being
Lake Shore and Northwestern, the weak ones,
Delaware and Lackawanna, Denver, and st.
Paul
II. ]. Fowler sold 10000 shares of Sc. Paul
during the afternoon.
Money rates to 81. The bank statement
showed a decrease in reserves of 81, 10000.
The short interest was increased yesterday.
There was fair demand for Vandcrbilts,
Illinois Central, and Delaware and Lacka-
wannd.
Stocks lent at and some others for 2.

The money and brai ms in Wall street ha,
tried to make it bull market and failed SO
far. The outside public wont come in Con-
grcss has a depressing effect. The insiders
sell when they get chance and milk the
market.
Western dispatches report the weather
moderating considerably.
There is a report that strong combination
has been made to put up the price of per
cent. government bonds. The parties in the
deal are the First National bank Charles Unger
& Co., and White, Morris & Co.
In the board this afternoon II. ]. Fowler sold
10000 st. Paul from 103 to 103a down. and
Work. Strong g. Co. sold Union Pacific and

of Lake Shore.

The Cold ON Tropical Plants.

We would like to hear from some
of our subscribers to whom we have
given tropical plants, on the result Of
the late cold weather, as effecting
them. With our own, we lost the
Rose Apple, Cashew and Melon Pa>
paw. Our Cherrimoya was cut down
from the top but is now growing
again; the Tamarind lost its leaves
but was not otherwise injured; the
Ginnep was not at all injured by the
cold and we have hopes that this de-
licious fruit may be easily naturalized.
Our Guango, or Rain tree, was killed;
the Horse Radish tree was cut down
but is starting from the roots. From
this report it will be seen that we
have hopes OF acclimatizing some of
the plants, for if they can go through
such a severe winter, the worst we
have known in our thirteen years res
idence, they have good chance for
the future. Had the trees been older
they might have stood the test better.

Saw Dust Around Orange Trees.
Editor of1Re Florida Agricultursst

Editor Of The Florida Agricultm-sst
Will you be kind enough to tell
me, in an early number of your paper,
whether hard pine wood saw dust
is fit to use for mulching around
orange trees, for bedding in a stable,
and for mixing with manure heaps.
In other words, whether it will serve
the same purpose as pine needles,
leaves and grasses, straw, etc. Or, on
the contrary, would the acids and
turpentine contained in the sawdust
be injurious if used as above. A
prompt reply will much oblige.
VIM. S.
Sorrento, Fya, February Z, 1888.
Pine needles are better than saw
dust, they have a considerable per-
centage of Potash. Sawedust makes
the soil too loose, and besides it
attracts white lice.-ED.]
