Hill end the Presidency.
Eroni<lvn Eagle,

How would Governor Hill do fol
President: He seems to be the only
Democrat who has taken increased
prestige out of the elections. Nor
rison is sheived. Carlisle is like
Jobs friend who escaped By the
skin of his teeth" Mr.. Cleveland
has found that Civil Service reform
is not an enthusing recourse. The
Democratic candidate in the Toledo
district is Hurd and net seen. The
Democrats have shown that they do
not relish an Administration which
apologies for kicking out Republi-
cans. The Labor voters are for Hill
and against Cleveland, justly or un-
justly. The Irish can only be held
by Hill from being tempted away to
Blaine. How would Hill do? One
thing is certain; the Democrats mean
to nominate some man who pleases
them, not some man whose success
will prove less than q Democratic
victory and not quite Republican
defeat. How would Hill do?

NaH
Hardware lines were quiet.
Collections continued good.
Leather trades continued dull.
Dry goods sold more slowly, and
the city was well empty of buyers
of any consequence.
The wool markets were without
change. Price held firm, but the
demand did not increase, and prob
ably will not this month.
CHICAGO.
Manufactured Iron was strong in
prices.
Money was abundant and collec-
tions good.
Hardware movements continue
regular and the larger houses are
far ahead of last years comparative
season.
rITisBCRG.
The iron situation was unchanged.
Prices of general merchandise re-
mained well up.
There was little stoppage of bu-
siness and none of work.
GENERAL.
Hardware markets were quiet.
The cotton crop is being gathered
under generally favorable circum-
stances.
Lumber was ruled quietly, and
the season is drawing to close, in
Northern markets.
Dry goods were duller. The pres
ent week, however, is showing an
Improvement over last.
The cotton market was duller, as
to transactions and prices. The
dealers had no push, and buyers are
having things their own way; de-
spite which. however, there are few
sales made, and these average light.
The present. week, excepting at
Chicago, has opened with brighter
prospects. With the disappearance
of political questions, has come
cooler weather, and trade is gener-
ally brisking up. A few lines are
still feeling the effects of the pull
back, but these results analyzcd,
will seldom fail to show natural
causes.
The wool market was well held,
despite the falling-of in demand,
and the selling of little odds and
ends that are quoted as contracts
and the sales figures of which are
used for all they are worth. Eas-
tern markets showed a rally as to
totals, last week, and the opening
of the present week gives promise
of doing better yet; but such signs
are not positive. AT New York, the
demand has shown little activity
AT Philadelphia, the textile troubles
still control the market as to calls
for goods.
The grain markets were dull, and
prices have generally rounded down
wards, with rally this week. 1t
is the evident intention of buyers to
control prices SIS long as possible,
and there is not enough force among
the holders of wheat to compel op-
posite conclusions. A good amount
has been purchased for foreign CON
sumption, but the buying has been
conducted upon the fashion of a
still hunt, and prices have not ap-
preciated in consequence. In other
words, the bears are active and alive
to every opportunity, while the bulls
are apparently enjoying nap.

STATE OELOUIS1ANA,
PARISH OF ST. LANDRY.
TN the name and by the authority of the
IL State of Louisiana the Grand Jurors of
the State of Louisiana, parish of st. Landry,
sworn and charged to inquire within and for
the body of the parish of st. Landry, State
aforesaid, respectfully submit the following
report
PARISH JAIL.
We have examined the parish jail and find
a good many prisoners therein. We find the
prisoners as well treated as could be expected
under the circumstances. We would suggest
that the Jail be thoroughly cleaned and dis
infected.
We have been informed that the road over
seers throughout the parish are not doing
their duty and that consequently, the roads
are not in good condition. While we have
not had sufficiently precise information to
justify us to find any indictments against
them, we deemed it our duty to take some
notice of the information which we have re.
ceived hoping that in the future they will at
tend to their duties.
We have carefully examined all cases
brought before us and have passed upon all
except a few, which were continued until the
next Grand Jury, in consequence of the fail
ure of the witnesses to attend. We take
pleasure in reporting the progress of eur new
Courthouse building and think that consider
able praise is due to Mr.. Harmon for tho man.
ner in which he is experimenting the same /;
and in this connection we would recommend
that u suitable room be set aside in said build
ing with other conveniences necessary for the
accommodation of future Grand Jurors.
The Grand Jurors would report that having
nothing further to do, they beg to be dis
charged. w. hi. PRICE.
