Early Declines are Recovered in a Gen. eraI Advance to the Highest Prices of thc Day as the Close.

NkW DCC Stocks opened with declines extending to A per cent and this loss was supplemented by further losses of small fractions in the early trading. The downward movement was of short duration, how ever, and, while the market became extremely duli there a reaction which carried the list quickly above the opening figures. The trading was con- fined to a very few stocks, but the advan made steady though slow progress The coal stocks came to the front later and in the last hour Delaware and Hudson made another spurt, while the rest of the list sym pathiZed closely and the market closed with a moderate degree of animation and strong at the best prices of the day.

One Fact

Is worth column of rhetoric, said an Amer ican statesman. It is fact, established by the testimony of thousands of people, that Hoods Sarsaporilla does cure scrofula, salt rheum, and other diseases or affections aris. ing from impure state or low condition of the blood. It also overcomes that tired feeling creates good appetite, and gives strength to every part of the system. Try it.

THE srocKHoLpERs RAr1EY.

 Hearty evidences of approval greeted Pres ident Clark's statement and vote was inn. mediately passed approving of the applica- tion to increase the capital stock and that it was the wish and desire of the stockholders that the increase be granted by the legisla- ture.
 The Consolidated pays taxes as follows: To Connecticut $399, 9,019. .65, to New York SIC, ,089, to Massachusetts $25, LA; total paid $494, ,254 12. This information was given in response to an inquiry from J. P. Beach of Cheshire.
 Director Robinson remarking on the taxes paid said:
 "This property" ," he continued, "is paying twenty per cent. of it's income, including the income of the holders of the leased lines, to the State of Connecticut in taxation. Did the stockholders of this road ever stop to think what an immense sum of money an- nually goes from this company to the State for taxationG Have they deliberated upon the vast amount that the road pays to the support of the State? This road is an im- mense support to Connecticut. We are pay ing substantially, by this money which goes for State taxation, about one-ifth of the an- nusl expenses of the State of Connecticut.
 Director Wheeler of Bridgeport being asked to say a word, remarked: People don't realize how thoroughly this road is serving the public and how thoroughly and how cheaply it is performing the public's busi- ness. In my opinion it is doing this work cheaper than any road in the country. It carries passengers for two cents mile. It has 5000 commuters riding for L or E 8

A TYPICAL soUrHrANER.

The typical Southerner is chivalric,
true and generous. He is brave and
kind-hearted. He takes to politics
like duck to water, and knows
good wine, and, II he is able, ducks
it. He is fond OF rod and gun, a
blooded dog and a horse with pedi-
gree. He will lay wager on any
thing-how long or short time a
blue bird will sit on a limb, or how
often Birmingham real estate dealer
has economically vended the truth
since the rumble of the new boom
has been signaled. He loves all the
women, and woe to him who lightly
names their names, or approaches
them not in gentleness of spirit and
with courtesy. He has strong re-
idZgous belief if he wears it lightly.
He would not lie for all the diadems
r The Bourbons lost, or desert friend
la pickle, or strike foe when he's
down. One of natures noblemen is
the typical Southerner, and just such
. man is Senator Joseph c. s. Black
burn, of the grand old common
wealth of Kentucky.
"In the hour of Mr.. Clevelands
power, / was not his oulogist; in his
hour of disaster, will not allow my
.selfto be made an accomplice to his
abuse" said he the other day.
that's magnanimity for YOU! That's

Blackburn, notalone for his eloquence
and brilliant daring, but because he
carries in his bosom a great big heart,
which beats responsive to every gen
eyous impulse Of humanity.

THE Courier-Journal commends
the enterprise which starts out new
dailies, but at the same time deplores
the loss of the old-time weeklies. 1t
says: "The increase of daily news-
papers in the state is a fine thing
doubtless, and significant of the pro-
,gress in all directions which is going
on, but it brings pang to the heart
of the exchange editor. There is a
flavor about the old weeklics, which
had their regular day for arriving,
and which revealed the interior of a
community once n week, hidden
during the rest of the time from the
world. 1t is strange and difficult
transformation too for the weekly
editor, whose habits are of any dura-
ton, to blossom into the daily grinder,
and the process robs many of them of
their value. The modern age GER
tainly has its lessons as we'll as its
gains.

MANY Southern Democrats seem
to be very uneasy about Harrison's
election, and think we will have
trouble in the South in consequence.
We do not intend TO be troubled UNI
til we see better grounds for it.
When Harrison and mis- party show a
disposition to attack the South, then
we shall think there is reason for APP
prehension. The parties are too
nearly equally divided for them to
attempt anything rash, we think.
They will be on their good behavior,
with the view of winning over
Southern Democratic mugwumps,
in our opinion.
