WEEKLY REPORT.
GENERAL REMARKS.-The general market
has continued for the week more or less dull,
and while no better in the leading staples
than for the previous week, the feeling was no
worse. There was nothing in the character
Of the demand to indicate activity, and really
the trading partook of hand to mouth char
acter. it being apparent in the jobbing lines of
q lack of demand in the interior. The
weather was very mild and favorable,
and rather, if anything, should stimu-
late trading, particularly IN dry goods.
I'm this department the movement was to
fine contrary, and orders now being received
are for goods for which only immediate use
,.,u1d be found. In provisions and groceries
.-fncss was fair, but not anyway active. In
..cr departments it was featureless. Moth
has transpired during this week to mate
.talv influence values in either direction.
evidently the speculative elements in con-
trolling markets prefer to wait until Euro
pean complications assume q more positive
or definite shape. Money and exchange con-
tinues unchanged. Securities are quiet. The
annexed review will show the tone and 1uc-
tuations Of the different markets.
NAVAL STOREs.-The market for spirits
turpentne was active at advancing prices.
The buying was principally for coastwise
shipment. At the closing to-day it was
auieter, with a somewhat easier tendency to
prices, which showed fully 1c. advance since
last report. The total sales for the week were
about LOO casks. Rosin--The market was
firm throughout the week, with increased
demand. The buying was very active
IS stocks were offered, and
this has kept the market pretty bare. Prices
held up very firm, being well sustained by
the inquiry. Elsewhere will be found a
weekly comparative statement of receipts
and exports from the opening of the season to
date, and for the same period last year, show
ing the stocks on hand ana on shipbOard not
cleared, together with the official closing quo
tations.
C0TTON.-There is nothing new to note in
the market. There was good inquiry and
quite a fair weeks business was accomplished
at unchanged prices. The protracted crisis
in European affairs has had little effect on
the markets, and owners of stocks manifest
a considerable degree of confidence and exact
full prices for all offerings. The stock is very
much depleted by the takings of the past
week. which foot up a total of 1875 bales.
BUYERS are still anxious at the outlook
and are not placing orders except where alb
solute necessity demands.
The following are the official spot quotaG

Cato was the most popular fiddler in all this
neighborhood over forty years ago. He was
tall, strsight well-proportioncd black as q
ravens wing always full Of fun and
witty speeches aud we'll suited for this
business. No fax pulling, spinuing frclic,
corn husking or evening amusement was
complete without Bill and his fiddle. For
some years he resided on land now owned
by BENJAMIN Pickering, East Nottingham.
Whenever party was held, and the most Of
them transpired at Mount Vernon and
Hopewell, some of the boys would harness
up their team and in due time Bill would
be in the midst Of the merry makers. His
fiddle and bow. would fairly talk, as 1t
were, and the lads and lasses would dance
to the old tunes of "Boogy- boo" Up the
road to Lancaster" "Strip the Willow" !"
"Virginia Six" and others. As time rolled
by Bill grew older and while playing he
would get weary and often close his eyes
and seem to be asleep, but his arm and bow
sweet a. when he was wide awake. This
would cause the general remark amongst
the boys O. believe that old darkey's arm
will not keep still when he goes to heaven" I"
Cato was not shy about takinga drink OF
whisky. When given him his eyes would
roll, a broad grin distribute itself literally
over his face while he exclaimed I: "Ah,
boys, that'll make her run referring
to his old fiddle. He was man not greatly
addicted TO drinking and by playing made
and saved some money for s.rainy day.
At length old age overlook Cato and he final
ly chung up de fiddle and de bow and went
where de good darkevs CO."
