BY the multiplication of rates and
the reduction of time in transportion
our New Jersey truckers find their
brethren of Virginia very troublesome
councillors. The latter have the adj
vantage of an earlier season, and their
ability to lie the first in the market
with their produce enables them to get
the highest prices, O that when jersey
produce is ready the appetite for early
vegetables has in part been appeased,
and the Jersey truckers are forced to
sell at lower figures. This has been
rendered the more apparent this sea-

A summary of cotton
dress-stuffs, what they are,
how they differ and how we
sell them, if we can make it
Ineligible, is likely to be as
acceptable as any news Of

tom.
Calico or chintz, as every
body knows, is everywhere.
Not everybody knows that
styles come first to the
quickly changing stocks of
the popular city stores and
work their way to country
merchants slowly; SO that
calico here and calico there
arc different printings. THE
same is true of every sort Of
merchandise The lowest
grade of calico, white ground
with small figures, ~ cents
a little finer, white, light and
dark grounds, all sorts OF
figures, S cents still finer,
various grounds and figures,
7 cents-at 7 are the Simp-
son linen-fnish prints just
out. They do not look like
chintz. The linen finish is
merely a gloss; the print is
the feature. They look like
the finer cottons. The col
ors, figures, effects, are sug-
gestive of costlier stuffs.
The Eddystone calicoes are
7. All the finest and pref
test chintzes are 7.
Cambrics, white grounds
and little-hgure printings. s
cents.
Foulards or cretonnes of
light effects, 10 cents. Last
years, dark, styles are 8.
Indigo grounds, dark and
light blue, with white and
colored figures, 10 cents. A

light-indigo grounds and

Monuments and Testimonials.

'.He asked for bread, and they gave
him stone, :" was the criticism Of an
American on the monument recently
raised to Chatterton.
1t is a characteristic of the English
people to delight in honoring their dead
heroes, while they are apt to allow their
living ones to fight their own fight
against poverty.
''Bailiffs," says Moore, bitterly, s'may
seize his last blanket to-day, whose pail
will be held up by mobiles tomorrow. I"
The Americans have inherited this
love of monuments, but their zeal is
usually short-lived. The country is full
of unfinished, gigantic pillars or statues
to the honor of the great men, from
Washington to Edgar Poe. OF late
years the admiration of our favorites
among prominent men has had tend
ency to run into testimonials of sub
stantial character while they were living;
testimonials which vary in value from a
teapot to fortune for life. The differ
ing ways in which these gifts are offered
and received are an amusing study.
After the war, for example, the popular
military leaders on both sides received
gifts from their admirers Tin some in
stances of enormous value) with as
hearty and cordial spirit as that in
which they were offered.
An instance of the opposite kind oc-
CURED few years ago, which is worth
telling, as it illustrates The peculiar
character of an author, beloved, we
trust, by all readers of the Companion
Hans Christian Andersen. An American
writer who had profound respect for
the good Danish poet heard that he was
in extreme poverty, and suggested in
the New York Tribune that if each
child in America who had been touched
and delighted by his stories would con-
tribute a trihe, it would make his de-
clining years comfortable and happy.
The idea was received with enthusiasm
all over the country. Contributions be-
gan to pour in rapidly and had already
reached considerable sum, when An.
dersen heard of what was going on, and
wrote an angry letter, not denying that
he was straitened in means, but repudi-
ating the offered sum ''as an insult"
The money was at once expended for
a work of art and forwarded to him.
In that shape it gave him keen delight,
and he was won't to show the ''testfmo-
NAL from his children in America
with pride, to all his visitors. Youths

The Whipping Post.

Seven prisoners, convicted at the pres
tnt session of the County Courts for
various infractions of the criminal laws,
received the corporal part of their pun
lsbment in the Jail yard this morning.
A crowd of about four hundred people,
including the rabble and gamins of the
city, Witnessed the laws vindication,
and extracted much amusement from the
writhing contortions of the suffering
victims. Sheriff Martin applied the
''cat'' vigorously, holding it in his left
hand and cracking it smartly with tell
ing effect over the shoulders and backs
OF the men bound to the posts. All the
prisoners showed that the punishment
was severe, but some nerved themselves
and stood the "cat" with but little
bringing. The first prisoner brought
out was Edward Bedden, convicted of
horse stealing. At ten o'clock the pill
Tory was opened and received his neck
and wrists. He held the position one
hour evincing great anxiety to be re-
leased toward the latter part of his
stand. At eleven o'clock he was re-
leased and walked down the ladder,
saying he felt quite as well as
when he left the cell. He was
afterward given twenty blows with
the ''cat." The first half of them he
bore fairly well, but the last ten set his
muscles trembling and painted his back
and shoulders red. He tried vainly to
dodge the blows, and looked first de-
family into the Sheriff's stern face.
George Stewart, the other white man
whipped, was convicted for the theft of
harness. He got ten lashes, lightly laid
on, his punishment being made rs light
as possible on account of his suffering
with consumption. The blood began
trickling down his back as he left the
post. Harrison Rothwell, alias Sugar
Awful. q notorious negro thief, who
pleaded guilty to larceny on four in
dictments, got the most severe punish
ment of any of the culprits. His
sentence was twenty lashes, and they
were most vigorously laid on. Each
stroke of the lash curled up the black
SKIN In welts, but the young miscreant
did not show by his actions that the
Sheritf's blows were terribly painful.
James Z. Groom, quite as notorious as
Sugar Awful for his participation in
thefts, was candidate for twenty
lashes. The cat was laid on heavily,
but the thief grinned and bore the pain
without an exclamation. Isaac Hen
derson received twenty lashes, well laid
on. He squirmed and kicked good
deal, and gave vent to his feelings in
profane EXPLANATIONS, which, however,
did not have any effect upon the Sc
verify of the punishment. George Nor
ris and Frank Congo, for larceny, were
punished with ten lashes each, which
they bore without a murmur, the cat
being lightly applied. Wilmington
