SToCEs-The market was again very
active during the first two hours. The total
transactions of the day were 1884
shares. Prices were irregular at the open
ing, ard in early dealings the market was
inclined to be heavy on the pressure to sell.
With only two exceptions, New York Cen
tral and Jersey Central, the rally amounted
to less than l per cent, and from that
time to the close of the Board the general
tendency OF the market was downward. The
market closed weak near the lowest quota
tons in most cases. The important excep-
ton was New Jersey Central, which de-
veloped in the early hours, selling to Al,
but at the last hour it reached AZ, but
closed at 454, q net loss Of l per cent.
Lackaxanns closed with a net loss Of Il

DR.. w. J. Gibbon, of Clarendon, Ark, does
quite large practice and stands high as a medi.
cal gentleman. His wife's lingering condition
became so well known, that a reporter accosted
him on the streets of Memphis, one day, when
the following dialogue was had:
Doctor, am glad to learn that your wife
has regained her health after several years of
misery and suffering"
"Yes, sir, she is now quite restored to health
TO the great astonishment Of myself and all who
knew her."
Have you any objection to telling me her
complaint and the remedys s
None in the least. She labored under m,
aftiction peculiar to the sex, attended with loss
OF appetite, emsciaton, prostration, impaired Sc
cretions, cold extremitics, Mysteries, constant
headache, extreme nervousness, and was bed
ridden over three years. My skill and that of
other physicians was exhausted and she was
given up to die. Some one mailed me the Formula
for DIR. Dromgoole's English Female Bitters,
Iprocured few bottles and placed her upon its
use. ard cured her like magic. 1t is a won
