SAVANNAH, GA, Nov. Il. 1881.
CoTTox-No very great activity was dis
played to-day, although perhaps rather more
business was done than usual on Saturday.
This was attributed to the good opening OF
Liverpool which stimulated buyers. but on the
listing OF the heavy receipts at the ports the
leading markets lost strength and went of
again. On the spot market there was steady
holding. and in some instances sales were made
at slightly better figures than the quotations.
The total sales for the day were 2,3s3 bales.
on Change at the opening call, at 10 a. m,
the market was bulletlned steady and
unchanged with sales Of 175 bales. At
the second call, at p. m, it was steady. the
sales being l,2sS bales. At the third and
last call, at P. m, it closed steady and un-
changed. with further sales of 95s bales.

LITTLEBY, Mo-, May 26.-While
many of the people of this neigh
borhood have seen destructive
storms and have often read of cy-
clones, but few have ever seen
such a storm as passed through
our neighborhood On May 20.
Hundreds of people from all over
the country have been viewing the
ruins, while many of them carried
away some little fragment or splin-
ter as a memento Of the storm. The
injured people at E. B. Norris are
doing as well as might be expect
ed, but Mrs. Seal and Miss Fletch-
er are not improving. Some things
have been found at places where
they were never seen before, as at
Burt Hams an unclaimed gown
and two pillows have been picked
up. Most OF the people are help
ing literally and in a short time it
is thought the sufferers will all be
comfortably settled again.
Chris. Mates, of st. Louis, has
come home to repair the damage
done by the storm to his farm.
Frank Moydel, who now lives
in St. Louis, has come up to build
a house on his farm, which is occu-
pied by Shell Norris.

An Unhappy Sequel.

The Hannibal Journal, speaking
of the separation of a Louisiana
newly married couple, the groom
quite well-known here says: The
separation of a young husband and
wife at Louisiana has put all of the
gossip,ng tongues in that little
city TO wagging. Bob Ray, n of
the boys about town with lots Of
money to back HIM up, married
Miss Ethel Lock, the recognized
belle of Louisiana, only a few short
months ago. There were hints at
the time THAT she did not love
him, and the sequel is, that there
was more truth than poetry in the
hints. After marriage they oe-
cupled elegant apartments In the
Palmer House up TO about three
weeks ago, and in the meantime
the liege lord lavished diamonds
and jewelry upon his bonny bride
to the extent of about $3.50. But
even this did not reconcile her.
Upon leaving the supper table
about three weeks ago she told her
husband to come up to her room
before leaving. She told him that
she would not be there that even
ing. Going out to see your
folks?" asked the young husband.

wife. Coming back tomorrow"
asked the husband. 81 don't

the remark, "Bob, I don't love
you and / am not going to live with
you," the bride of a few months
left the hotel not to return to the
affectionate bosom of her loving
husband.
The next day Mrs. Ray sent a
wagon to the hotel and took all of
her clothes and nearly all of the
private furniture, bric-a-brac, etc.
