TOBACCO TALK.
Rev. Alex Walker Gives His Views on the
Tobacco Market.
along crowded thoroughfare:

Kew. Alex Walker Gives His Views on the
Tobacco Market.
The receipts of leaf tobacco for the
past week have been moderately large,
with sales lasting from three to eight
hours Prices have shown slight fuctu-
alton, some days they would appear to
be a little lower and on some grades
they would rally and go a little higher
There seems to be a little nervousness
among the buyers. Sometimes the bid
ding would be lively and strong and then
they would appear more Indifferent and
bid slow. There has been a disposition
on the part of some to buy at lower
prices, while others have sho an no dis.
position to lower prices. Medium smo
kers and common filters we think NAV be
said to be from 25 to so cents less. The
better grades are fully up to former
prices. The nervousness alluded to may
have been caused by the newspaper talk
or the agitation Of the money question
may have had something to do with it,
but the torn seems to be subsiding and
the money question will cease to agitate
the public mind, and trade of all kind
will move on smoothly and more ats.
fac.orily.

When NJ. Desire Charnay visited Prince
Mancou-Naaoro in Java he was entertained
by n concertgiven by his hosts orchestra
of sixty pdces Mancou-Nagoro was the
fourth prince Of his name. The orchestra
WAS founded by the first Maneou-Nagoro.
1t is greatly admired By the Jayanese.
The musicians wore black gowns and tur-
bans. The instruments We're apparently
copper pots of all shapes and sizes, from
ore large enough to boil two eggs to the
largest kettles.
There were also sets Of copper plates,
from two inches to three feet in length,
mounted Oh sculptured bronze stands
Wooden plates We're arranged similarly,
! There were gongs from ten inches to six
feet in diafneter and queerly shaped two
stringed victims. Each musician had sticks
with rubber ends to strike the Instruments.
On sighal from the prince the concert
began. Tha music was IL combination of
| remarkable sounds. Some were soft, sill
very aud plAintive as heard amid the roar
ing of the gbngs.
Sometimes a beautiful melody could be
| heard, but I'm general the performance was
one prolonged wonderful discord. From
| time to time the piercing voices OF the wom-
en- singers jpined i'll this melancholy music.
| One might easily have taken the black
robed music ians for mourners and the per
formanee for II funeral service.
| The prince listened delightedly, beat time
and, with D proud glance, seemed to say
"Did you ever hear anything more beauti

Governor Wertz, of New Jersey elect.
ed last November OIL the Democratic
ticket, seems to bo made of different
material than many of his predeces-
sors. and his liberal way OF thinking
and doing business is causing the iron

appointment of William Walter Phelps

argument in favor OF the appointment
OF so prominent Republican MS Mr.
Phelps was that he wanted to elevate
the Lay branch of the high Appellate
Court, and he has commenced the
work of that reform by tine appoint

able Republicans to the bench. That
