OCEAN FraiRhta

During the last season we have had the
lowest ocean freights which have ever been
known TO rule for cotton. The system Of
taking foreign freights was changed last Sep
TENDER from fractions OF penny sterling to
so many cents per hundred pounds. In Sep
TENDER the market opened at Acc per hun
dred pounds to Liverpool and the continent
In OCTOBER the rate had declined to 3Gc. In
November the rate advanced to SOC and even
went as high as 45c per hundred pounds. In
December and January the rates went as low
as 33c to 35C per hundred pounds to Liverpool
and the continent. The rates to the Melit-
terranean were COrrespOndirglV low while to
Russia no direct business was done. owing to
the indirect lines Offering lower rates than di-
rect steamers would accept. The
whole world having gone largely into
iron steamship building, there was a surplus
OF tonnage which oVerhung the market, and
prevented any payable rates being had The
failure of the grain crops OF Russia had
stopped shipments from the Black sea, and
al owners were depending on America and
india for employment. This season the out
look is somewhat better owing to the low
prices of American cereals, which has
brought about large grain export from the
Unlted states TO Europe, and better de-
mand for tonnage from Russia. Even with
these advantages in the market, however we
can hardly see any prospects OF any very high
rates, as the supply OF tonnage is more than
equal to the demand, and at any time any
high rates are offered. there are too many YES
scls waiting for employment and ready to
take any paying frcights TO be had.
sail freights have kept on a parity with
the last years business ? s. 9p. Cork +. o.,
being the ruling rate, and the eharterers be-
ing very careful OF the amount Of tonnage
they had taken in advance of their require
ments, Taking it all in all the last season was
a most unsatisfactory one for the ship owners
and charterers, and unless the present cotton
crop is large one high rates are impossible.
The naval stores trade seems to be in the
same position as the cotton trade, and until
the trade of the world revives we cannot
hope for high rates to foreign markets.
Coastwise steam freights also suffered
from lack of business The falling of in
the receipts Of cotton, and the depression of
business generally throughout the country
was the cause of the less demand for freights
The boats of the different lines were kept on
regularly and did fair average business
considering the ruling drawbacks to the
trade Rates have ruled about the same for
domestic shipments.
The coastwise business by sail was very
much depressed. There were "A number OF
vessels lying up during the year, preferring
to do this rather than take ireights at the
rates offered.
The following are the highest and lowest
rates on lumber for sailing vessels during the
season:

Hardware.

The volume of business in hardware for the
past year in this market might be denOmi-
mated as only fair. While we have had
opened up to us some new territory by the
building OF new railroads, notably the South
Bound and the Savannah and Western, still,
owing to the general depression throughout
the country, we have not perceptibly felt any
increase of trade. There is no doubt how
ever, that had we not been so fortunately
brought into contact with the increased terri
tory turned over to us by the new traffic facil-
ties, we would undoubtedly have felt de-
Clded falling on in sales. Having kept our
eral hard times and unusual falling off in
trade everywhere, it argues well for the
future Of this city. What is most especially
gratifying to look forward to in healthy sea-
sons to come, is the fact that we are soon to
have new, Independent and direct line into

railroad. In connection with the South must
necessarily be of vast importance to Savan-

anxious to push business preferring to de-
vote TO their regular customers, most of their
attention having been called upon to an I'M
usual extent this season. to help out their
frlends-the retail merchant in the inter-
ior.
In the turpentine tool trade there has been
a falling on which would have been felt to an
extent not easily overcome and the results
would nave been more decidedly depressing
mad this not been partially overcome by an
increased demand over the former years ag-
rlcultural business In this particular line,
which suffered most the year before there
was gratifying increase, owing to the fact
that the farmers had been forced to use their
things as were actually necessary in the
strfctest sense. In both heavy and shelf
hardware business the past year has been
about on par with the previous year, while

Some years ago when the railroads were
approached about this exporting, they were
disinclined to make any concessions In the
way Of favorable rates; but now, being as
sured that this business can in larger part be
exported from Savannah than from any of
the Florida ports, they are evincing more
hberGl attitude, and II they continue their
present fight for this business, the exporting
of Florida rock will undoubtedly in the future
be greater from this than other ports farther
south. While the Florida ports are nearer
the mines, the vastly superior harbor ad-
vantages of Savannah will command this
shipping, with proper competing rail rates to
Savannah.
The outlook for the coming season is fairly
encouraging. The manufacturers have all
guarded against an output in excess of the
expected demand, and with fairly remuner-
ative prices for their cotton, the planters
will use fully as much fertilizer as last
season.
The following table shows how the trans

THE TESTIMONY or ARCHAEOLOGY.

Those who deny the divine author

resort to archaeology and try to prove
that much OF the early rhetorical mar.

hea.hen myths. Lately this ChaldW IN

has been quoted ma showing that thu
Biblical account Of the hood, the tower

Of Tigris and Euphrstos thousands OF

was obtained. Mr.. Smith estimates

Tho copies that contain the Genesis
