NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORK > OCk MARNE '.
NEW YORK. September 1.-THE aspect
OF affairs abroad which was disturbed by
the Mityenc affair was better this morn
ing. and London. which yesterday was
seller of all kinds of securities, became n
buyer to-day, and to that extent improved
the feeling here with the temper of tho
stock market. There was also a further
reduction in the rates for sterling ex-
change. and they are now AZ the gold-im-
porting point. while an order OF gold on
the other side for shipment TO America
was announced. The weather in the corn
belt was reported all that could be de-
sired. 9nd the bears saw oil their bases for
argument against the evident tendency OF
prices IN the stock market to rise disap-
bearing one by one.
opENISG PRICES BETTER.
The feeling in the street was therefore of
O more pronouncedly bullsh character
than for some time. and the opening prices
this morning were oil from II To q per
cent. better III the active stocks than they
closed last evening. The bears and those
who have been working for a reaction IN
order 10 pick up cheap stocks made final
assault upon values in the early trading,
which has of late brought them some sue
cess, and Union Pacific was knocked down

only about their opening gains. ON the
other hand Distlllers' continued its al
vance. and other specialties showed n ten
deucy TO rise IN the face or the general de-
preston. which lasted only a short time.
New buying was very apparent. and pur-
chaseS for long account became more nu-
mcrous rs the morning wore away, which
ar'ed the shorts into cover before prices
had got too far away from them.
A GENERAL UPWARD MOVEMENT.
The result WAS that an upward move
ment began which lasted with but few and
unimportant Interruptions throughout the
day. Their, was moderate setback to-
ward i. NJ, but the interruption was Of
shor. duration and the upward march was
quickly resumed. and the highest prices Of

That Third Party.

The constant presence of third per-
son at the freside and table, says Mrs.
=. T. Barnum in The Ladies Home Jour
ma, is especially disastrous IL the earlier
years Of wedlock. The presenc! of one
who Is not 'ot ourselves may often re-
strain what is worst to us but alas! it
alwa,s rcstrains what is best. There
must always b. in the most perfect un.
ions anu the best ordered lives some little
friction which will once In while fnd
expression. The gentle protest with
which, If alone with your husband, you
would dsarm his fractiousness, dies in
your throat because of the third person.
The loving caress with which you would
close his lips and make him ashamed OF
himself, is as impossible to you as If you
were paralyzed. II misunderstood, pride
will not let you explain, and you retort
indignantly; or, at best, keep silent with
an aching heart, and in time you grow to
hate that third person who may be an
AZ gel of light, but who is none the less
eating holes in your marriage garment.
1t may not be possible, without neglect
ing a sacred duty, to have your house
entirely to yourself, but charge you, as
you value your mutual love and happi-
ness, be inflexible in your resolution to
keep some waking hours out of every
twenty-four when the fireside shall be
sacred to you and your hus band when
you can tell each other your thoughts,
your hopes and fears, with no stranger
intermedding with your joy.

Life Of General Sherman.

No literary announcement Of the year
is OF greater interest to the general pub
lie than that Of comprehensive Life OF
General Sherman, which is about to be
published and sold through agents by the
noted house Of Hubbard brothers, of
Philadelphia. Admirable biographies of
Grant and Sheridan, complete to the time
OF their death, are already familiar to the
public, but a life of the third great COM
mandcr, to finish the series, has boen
lacking. The various biographies Of
Sherman hitherto published have neces-
sarily been Incomplete and even his
own memoirs, written in 1875, said al.
most nothing of his intensely interesting
early life, and not word, Of course, of
the more THAI twenty years of social &C.
tivity and fraternity with old comrades
since the war.
The work which is now to be issued
will splendidly supply the widely felt de-
mand for history of the great strategic
commander. IT is being written by
Wills Fletcher Johnson, whose aOlllly
as a historian is familiar to the reading
public of America through his former un-
usually popular works, which have had
millions of readers, and the sales of their
vast editions enriched an army of book
agents he is aided by Maj. .-Gen. o. o.
Howard, man Of fine literary attain
menta, who knew Sherman better than
any other of his comrades now living,
and ranked next but one to him in the
army. That this history of sherman,
the last of the great Generals, will sur
pass all others ia popularity is not to DO
doubted. 1t will doubtless be the best
lie of the great chieftain published, and
we predict for it wonderful popularity.

POULTRY NOTES.
No. @.

Don't permit your hired hand to club
or chase your hens, it don't pay.
A hen with frozen comb wont lay,
and you can't blame her; take her off Of
that tree nights
The breeds with small combs and an
abundance Of feathers make the best
winter layers.
Avoid the top knot breeds, as the tuft
OF feathers holds the dampness and they
are more liable to contract disease, cs-
pecially ronp.
In speaking Of barred Plymouth Rocks
says Judge Pierce, in Poultry Guide Il
Friend: "If males are mated with fe-
males, both Of medium color, we believe
that it is generally admitted that better
average of good specimens will be pro-
duced, and as such color is in demand,
it will pay breeders to seek to secure it.
1t is generally conceded that a cross Of
thoroughbreds, that is union of two
pure bred fowls of different breeds, are
the best for msrketmep.
1t has been claimed that a cross OF
Blown Leghorn and Plymouth Rock
make good one for general use, but for
an all purpose fowl decidedly prefer the
latter unwixed.
