Following is the GAzErrEs weekly special
letter from New orleans concerning the state
OF trade:
THE GENERAL BUSINESS POSITION.
Special Correspondence Gazette:
New orleans, February l2-Notwith.
standing the large Influx of strangers 10 visit
our Mardi Gras festivities, the general bust
ness movement has continued Disappointing.
The outlook, however, for the spring trade
Is considered favorable.
The weeks business In spot cotton was
fair, though fully 10000 bales less than last
week. Prices, however, declined Lice on
middling. Futures also dropped 8Qs points
compared with last week. The weeks re-
ceipis of cotton have again been quite large,
comprising at this port O3.e5o bales, against
5i,3ps last week and q, 099 this week last year,
and embracing at all ports les,o5i bales,
against l35,lJl last week and a3,59s
this week last year. These fig
ures certainly show--..yery large receipts FOR
this time OF the year, and accounts In some
measure tor the continuance of the deprcs-
sion In cotton on this side of the Atlantic
The improvement in Spots of Jig d at Liver
pool Is attributed to the continuance OF u
good demand In hat market, which though
showing falling oil in sales this week OF III
900 bales compared with last week, is never
theless 1900 bales more than at this time
last year. AS TO tho prospects the outlook in
regard to the number OF bates MS well as TO
the future course 0f prices is considered as
indefinite,as ever.
Sugar ana molasses have been rather fea-
turelesS this week with one exception, and
that is supplies coming in from plantations
were showing earlier signs of exhaustion
than was anticipated.
Rice seems to be looming up again, when
the Improvement established in prices as
well as the strong position Of holders is con-
sidered.
Breadstufs appear to be on the upward turn
everywhere, which is attributed TO the rednc-
ton OF the estimates of the worlds supplies.
Manlpulations continue to maintain the
provision markets ia the west, though the
arrivals of hogs at the hog-packing points in
the west continue liberal, and stocks begin
to show some signs of accumulation.
Financial affairs throughout the country
appear to be taking better shape. Money il
rapidly becoming more abundant and drop
ping TO low rates. The belief is also obtain
ing generally that no revenue bin would be
likely to seriously interfere with the com
merce and industries of the country. In this
meantime feeling of cheerfulness is spring
ing up with regard to the spring trade. ou
foreign trade is also not only favorable, bu
promises well for the future.

A manufacturer in Vienna employs
the following process for silvering iron
He first covers the iron with mercury.
and silvers bp the galvanic process. By
heating to 800 degrees c., the mercury
evaporates and the silver layer is fixed.
Iron-ware is first treated with diluted
hodrochloiic acid, and then dipped into
solution OF nitrate of mercury, beng
at the same time in communI cation with
the zinc pole of an electric battery, q
piece of gas carbon or platinum being
used as an anode for the other pole. The
metal Is soon covered With a layer Of
quicksilver, is then taken out and VT II
washed and silvered in silver solution.
To save silver the ware can be first cov-
cred with a layer of tin; one part of
cream of tartar is dissolved IN eight
parts of boiling water, and one or more
tin anodes are joined with the carbon
pole of Bunsen element. The zinc
pole communicates With well-cleaned
piece of copper, and the battery is made
to act till enough tin has deposited on
the copper, when this is taken out and
the iron-ware put in its place. Ware
thus covered with TIN, chemically pure
and silvered, is much cheaper than 9th
er silvered metals.

sewing-Maohine Industry.

These remarkable items pour into our office
daily. Mr.. II. S. FULLER, with the New Home
Machine Company, of Orange, Mass, writes,
May %, 1888: 81 have used Hunts Remedy
in my family for over ten years. My wife
was troubled with catarrh of the bladder,
suffered intense pain in the kidneys aud
loins, and urination was accomplished with
the greatest of agony. My friends thought
that she could not recover. Wetried doctors
and medicines, and although better at times
she would grow worse again. She wasobliged
to use the urinal as many as fiftesn n times in
night, and was growing worse daily. At
this time my attention was called t. Hunts
Remedy, andI concluded to tryit and after
using one bottle she was a good deal better,
the infiamma ion was reduced and the water
more natural. She began TO gain in appetite
and felt no pain in the back and kidneys.
She could attend TO her household work
without pain, and this had been great
burden to do, even the lightest kind of work.
After using six bottles she was completely
cured. Since then have had occasion 10
use Hunts Remedy for kidney and liver com
plants, and found il to be just as represented,
and consider il most wonderful medicine.
l would not be without Hunts Remedy in
my family; and have recommended 1t 10
my friends here in Orange with equally good
results"

Electric lamps for locomotives arwear
to have given considerable satisfaction,
the experiments made on one of the
French railways having some time
since proved its peculiar advantages for
such purpose. According to this sys-
tenn, the lamp is placed in front of the
engine, SO as to light the permanent
way to an extent equal to all needs and
exigencies. The advantages mentioned
in It's favor are, among others. that it
burns steadily even when the train goes
at express speed; that the light does not
interfere with the visibility or dlstInc-
tive colors of the signals; and that nei-
ther the engine driAers, nor employees
of the train carrying the light, nor those
of 9th er app oaching trains are dazzled
by it, and thus the oadinsry dangers
arising from this source are almost en-
tirely avoided. 1t is stated that the
drivers are by this means able to see the
line distinctly for distance of 300
yards ahead,

He was a young man with forty
dollar suit of clothes on, and he had
made arrangements to take his girl and
her mother down to Putin Bay. He
left them on the boat while he ran up
town to get some cigars, and scarcely
had he disappeared when a man with q
Ratchet face and a red goatee sp-
preached the ladies and inquired of the
mother. Going down to the Bay?'
"Yes, SIR" Never seasick in gale,

she will sigh and groan, and her hair

begin to hate the though of fried pork

ten minutes later you'll thump down on

a lemon for Melv,na and a pickle for

ROAST GRIsKIN OF Pork. K.--Ingredients,
pork, little powdered sage. Mode
As this joint frequently comes to the
table hard and dry particular care
should be taken that it is well basted;
put 1t before bright fire and flour it;
roast In the usual manner; about ten
minutes before taking it up sprinkle
over some powdered sage; make a little
gravy In the dripping pan; strain it
over the meat and serve it with tureen
of apple sauce. This joint will be
done in much less time when the skin
is LETT on, consequently should have the
greatest attention that it is not dried
up. A spare rib of pork Can be roasted
In the same way.

TIE time to SOW buckwheat is the lat.
est day that will allow the crop to ma
ture before frost; but we cannot say
when frost will appear, SO it Is necessa-
ry to make some allowance. A good
practice is to fit the land early, say piow
before the middle of June, cultivate
well about ten days later, and again just
before sowing the seed, which should
not be later than the 10th of July In this
latitude. That will provide for quick
germir alton, and growth, if not retarded,
will DE complete before the middle OF
September. and that is early enough to
escape frost ID ordinary season.

A citizen of Reading. Pa, is the own
er OF a curious plant, known as the urga
tree, which came originally from Aus
trslia. 1t is al out three ieet In height,
and the flower is large and of deep-red

fold, and the ends of the twigs coil up,
apparently going to sleep. The younger

The ART OF CURING PORK.-First be
sure that the barrel iD clean and sweet,
as, if this Is not the case, 1t will make
little difference what precautIon may
be used, the pork will not keep well.
Use the best kind of coarse salt; put a
layer of salt at the bottom, and ON this
layer of meat closely packed; and thus
keep on till the meat is all packed.
Then put on water enough to make a
strong brine, so that the meat is all
covered. As long as it Is kept under
the brine, you are sure to have good
sweet pork.
