Lunar Influence on Cattle Brands.

charging the brand on cattle. \ lawsuit

which the claimant used. Thirteen wit

They all swore that when cattle were
branded in tho dark Of the moon the
brand will never, no matter how large
the animal may grow, get larger than the
dimensions of the iron used. On the
other hand, when either grown cattle or
calves arc branded in the light of the
moon the scar will spread, and the lighter
the moon the larger will he the spread.
And the suit, involving several thousand
dollars worth Of cattle, was settled On
this testimony. So the question is legally
settled that it is the moon that does it

Tobacco Market.

RICHMOND, A., June /.
Out of forty nine packages offered to-
day thirty-seven were sold. reflections
this week have been small, and sales were
mostly sun cured from Caroline ard
Louisa counties. Next week there will
be further good sales One thing is very
notable about these public sales When
buyers assemble and know the tobacco
will be sold they bid freely, hence the
auction sales of sun.cured are so often
successful when other grades are not,
as, for instance, brights. shipping leaf
is, of course, preferably sold privately to
preserve samples in good shape, etc, but
more frequent, without reserve auction
sales, would no doubt help this market
and make prices, where we often have no
reliable quotations now. Auction sales
are largely the life of the trade, whether
over the hogshead or by sample.
Sales were freer of good to fine filters
and bright wrappers to-day. Market
prime, but no higher Receipts liberal al
present.
No warehouse returns are completed
to-day. This is not the fault of the in
speciors but the warehouses, and there is
no good excuse for this constant delay
in statistics.
The leaf tobacco premium lists are out
in neat form to day. Let them be followed
up by as many personal appeals as pos
sible, and put good man or two on the
road to solicit the trade to our Exposition
in business way. Let this be the next
step. Don't stop short, but keep the ball
moving till the end OF the Exposition.

REVIEW.
New YORK, June Its an almost
hopeless task trying 10 chronicle any
thing new on this market. The trading
is dull and narrow, and even the gossips
are tired out. To-day Reading and 81.
Paul were the features, but the fiuctua'
tions were within one-half per cent. for
each. Sales TO noon were only 1900
shares, the bulk of it in Reading, st. Paul,
and New England. Foreign orders were
limited To arbilrage dealings. In the
afternoon there was very little done until
after delivery hour. and the market
slowly swung back to opening figures,
closing dull but fairly steady.
In bond. Kansas Texas were the
feature. They opened at G2, sold to 90,
and closed at G2i. The interest on them
was not paid to-day, but this was gem
orally expected.

NONRESIDENT ROLL FOR TAX OF 1887.

Everything appears now to be in far
way for the early completion of the col
lege Originally projected by the Nj. T.
church, and which has taken shape by
charter as the University of San Antonio.
Nearly all the money required for con
structing the necessary buildings and fur
nishing them with the necessary appa-
ratus has been secured, the site having
not yet been fully determGned upon. 1t
is designed to make of the university an
institution superior to any of its kind in
Texas, and inferior to none in the south
While it was designed, and it is especially
nurtured by the Methodist Episcopal
church, yet it will not in any respect be
sectarian. 1t is thought the university
will be ready fer students before the close
of the year.
