Review of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS market.

Review of POrtiaudaW holesale Market.
FOR THE WEEK ENDING Sept. 26.
In some departments of the merchandise markeo
there has been marked improvement in the volume
Of trade compared with last week. but as rule only
moderate business is reported. The market for
Flour is hrmef and more active at unchanged prices.
Pork and Lard continues weak and lower At New
York the market for pork depressed ADD we notice
quite sharp decline there as we'll as at the West
Beef is in better tone but without change in fig
esSolasses is quiet and steady Sugars are in good
request and prices tending upward Cheese is fem
ly held at l012 q Sc. Butter is very firm on fine
grades, which are &c higher than obtained week
ago; in Boston fine fresh stock is we'll sold up but
buyers seem disposed to hold hack little, and the
indications are that they will resist any further ad
vance. Apples are more plenty and prices barely
maintained The crop of Apples in Europe is un-
usually large, and but very few if any, will be ex-
ported from here to Liverpool this winter. The
supply OF Potatoes is liberal and prices steady at
40 950c y bush. Sweet Dotatoes are easier. Grain
has been steady all the week with but slight vari.
alton in quotations. There has been an advance in
canned Beet of zoe dozen on 2 y cans. Chickens
are easy and lower; Fowl scarce and firm. In the
Fish trade the principal feature continues to be in
Maaserel, which are strong at an advance of 81 on
Shore No and 2. Fresh fish were scarce to-day,
but early in the week the receptss were heavy; Cod
and Haddock have been jobbing at &c p fb, Cusk
&c. large Mackerel l3c and mediums l1c and Hal
hut lie. Tobaccos are hrmer and an early rise is
looked for on account of injury to the growing CROP
1t is said that several factories have advanced their
rates &c and that others will follow. In Oil we
note higher prices on Kerosene. Water White,
Pratts Astral, Ligonia, Silver White, Linseed and
Boiling Sperm Oil has declined Matches have
dropped to 65c. In Druge and Dyes. Cream Tarar
is lie better and Cod Liver Oil has advanced to
5o@4 90. Fish Livers selling at 50a60c %

change is made in prices Hay is active the market

COULD BREAK OFF.

When certain family on the Brush
farm took new cook last month it was
specifically stated and understood that
she was not to have any men hanging
around the kitchen. She held to the
agreement for three or four nights, and
then the family discovered that she had a
beau. He came regular every night aft
er that. and three nights ago the Colonel
was at the back gate waiting for him.
When the young man appeared the Col.
onel threw whole iceberg into his tones
as he inquired
"Well, sir, did you come here to
spark =
al did" was the calm reply.
"In love, are you"
"Yes, sir"
"Who with :"
''Sarah, the cook"
"Oh, didn't know but you loved one
of my daughters" sneered the Colonel.
"No, l don't at present." said thu
man as he seemed to catch sudden
idea, "but the thing hasn't gone so fal
with Sarah but what l might break Oh
in case you had something better up
stairs for me J"
Sarah don't work there any more, but
the Colonel won't get over being mad fol
several weeks yet.

A MODEsT SUGGESTION.

1.-THE proud and scholarly State OF Mass
achusetts, which puts SO much Latin upon
every official State document, stamped up
on it by its grea. seal, would put bottle
OF Hunts Remedy on its seal, 1t would be
briefer, and answer every purpose. There
is vigorous arm with q sword striking
Latin blows, and an Indian shooting Latin
arrows. But Hunts Remedy does more
than this. Itssrikes blows in Latin, Eng
lish, French, and German, ami ia every
language, against the most insidious aud
deadly enemies OF the human frame, and
shoots destructive arrows into disease. II
specially wages war against Kidney Dis
eases, so common In our afflicted humani-
ty; and cures ailments OF the kidney,
bladder, liver, aud urinary organs, and
brings health again to the despairing. II
Massachusetts, doesn't wish to change its
seal, Huns Remedy would be q signifi cant
design for the seal Of some new State.

A BOOT-BLACK'S EXPLOIT.

During the progress Of the recent great
fire in New York, three men were seen
gesticulating wildly at a fifth story win
dow at the Beekman street corner OF
Park Row. They were carpenters en-
ployed in changing the partitions OF the
rooms vacated BY the World. No way
Of rescuing them was conceived by any
body but Charley Wright, young half
breed Indian and negro employed IN
Keenan's saloon. When he looked up,
on hearing the men cry out for help, he
saw that a wire cable ran from the cor
ner Of the cornice to telegraph pole
across the street.
Hi, Mike ~ he called to Michael
Pryor, boy; "come and boost me
quick -
Charley got q start from Mikes Shout
der. and by hard, fast. desperate climb
ing, mounted the pole to the cross5ars.
A spike in one hand aided him in the
feat, and with that as tool he twisted
the cable loose. The other end was al
ready securely fastened above the heads
Of the three carpenters, and they sud
denly saw practicable fre-escape dang
ling within reach. They lost no time IN
using it, Two did so by going down
hand over hand. The third slid, with
his hands clutching the wire, aad was
considerably lacerated.
As for Charley Wright, he had bad
luck after his hsroism. In slipping
down the pole, his foot touched a lamp
post, and thinking he had reached the
sidewa ak, he let 60 his hold, and got
fall which famed him. Then man Of
fered him fifty cents to fetch an oyercoat
from a room in the lower story of the
Potter building. He was familiar with
the room and did the GRAND in jiffy.
He is believed to have the last person TO
quit the building The police lines were
being formed when he emerged, and he
could barely hand the coat to its owner
before being prodded off by club
without the half dollar though he ex
poets to get it. Later in the day the
American Humane Society voted him a
medal
