Trade SUNNI ary.

Fdrlegs Trade Reports, September %:
General trade reports are more favorable
this week than they have been for a long
while past. The advance in last week 5
reports was noticeable, but the improve
ment in the present series is more
marked.
There is scarcely any drawback to the
general progress, and the onward march,
with few exceptions, includes greater
sales and advanced prices, the latter be-
ing rarely noted, nova days, in any
thing like general way.
We did not expect such an early real
ization of the truth in our last weeks re-
port, to the effect that prices seemed to
be drifting higher, but this is the fact.
In lines wherein no change in prices
have been made, these are held more
firmly. For all this, the fullness OF the
fall trade is responsible. Capital has
grown more confident and is going into
more general use. Manufacturers are
gaining COURAGE and dealers are no longer
afraid To stock up at the. risk of having
To carry goods.
The grain markets have formed an
exception to the general rule of improve
ment having shown a remarkably strong
tendency to go the other way.
The cotton markets are about the same.
Crop reports are turning out better than
had been anticipated.
Sales haye been unusually heavy, al
though, as general rule, confined TO
the smaller manufacturers. The larger
manufacturers are, just now, fairly well
stocked, though they will have to be in
the market continually, for sorts.
The lumber is without much change.
Leather markets continue stiff, with a
positive scarcity in the Eastern markets.

these formidable disadvantages. By the

The GOOD Old DAYS.

Our Federal Point correspondent Is
mourning because the administration OF
the g carpet bag" government in Florida
and Putnam county is over. His COM
municatIon on the subject will be found
elsewhere. The people are not all fools.
If there had been anything in the " car
et-bag'' government that they approved,
they would not have let it pass into such
utter contempt 1t is almost universally
condemned IN the country, North and
South. No one, in he art, approves this
Judgment more than our correspondent.
But we do not care to follow the mat

can speak on the subject. In June, 1880,
Mr.. j. F. Tenney bolted the nominee of
the Republican party for Governor, be
cause he did not approve of his party S
choice. In one of his letters he declared
THAT the Republican voters would GER
tainly prefer defeat, rather than support
what they believed would be corrupt
administration - Another of his letters
is as follows:

The iron markets are still in good
shape, though we cannot, at this lme
see causes to prophesy any advance In
prices. The demand is generally good
and rates are firm, but without advance.
Hardware is generally doing well.
Wholesale dealers report stocks as con-
siderably lower than at this time last
year, while jobbers and retailers do not
complain of crowded shelves. The rea-
sonable supposition is that the consumer
has taken the stock and has used 1t.
Money matters are reported as generally
easy. Collections average good.

,ing on without interruption.

Our Federal Point correspondent says
that when the "carpet- baggers came
into power in Florida they found but
little property to "work with" Sure
enough, but they worked that little
very Iivelyl And then, he says, they
strained the credit of the Common
wealth." We should rather think they
did, Had they not been overthrown
they would have ''str aimed" it to death.
But the people, like Mr.. Tenney, had
had enough of the old carpet-bag adj
ministration," and set it aside, and the
affairs of the State were strained no
longer. Will our esteemed correspond
ent rise up AMI give us the names of the
good men" among the carpet-bag
gang whose benefcent acts the ''people
will duly acknowledge" in future gen
erations?" Were Conover and Wither-
spoon among the number? Tenney in
1880 and Tenney in 1886 seem to dis
agree about the excellent qualities of the
carpet baggers. Six years ago he had
had enough of them but now he Is
sure that they were good men, IT not
quite worthy of Elijah's mantle!

ors for them, and few may never re-
ceive Elijah's mantle, yet, there were
some good men among them whose la
bors will. by and by, be duly acknowl-
edged by the people who will compose
the future generations. 1t is popular
now to decry the carpet-baggers, but
they were more generous than our pres
ent Democrats in all the offices. Even
the Governors had Democratic represent
atives in his Cabinet. How is il now?
Our public lands have been frittered
away, our people taxed without mercy,
and we have a surplus in the treasury
of Putnam county. (--)

Consumption of summer Drinks.

There has been within five years remark
able increase in the consumption of summer
drinks, and within that time the number of
manufactures OF carbonated waters has more
than doubled. Lemon, soda and sarsapariIla
are the staples, and suffer but little from the
temporary popularity of some specially fla
vored drink. There is no way to get at the
actual output of soda waters, but the sale
runs up into the tens of thousands of boxes.
On the basis of COO saloons in the city they
will average tvs boxes of two dozen bottles
per day, SO you can figure it up. There is
also n growing demand for what are known
as table waters, the local manufacture being
equal in every respect TO the imported Ger
man waters-Dr. Sander in Globe-DcIuocrat
