SAN JAcINTo BIRDS.

The Varieties Seen by an Ornith0l0gist
in Cottonwood Forest.
While Mr.. Stevens, the ornithologist,
was in San Jacinto, the Register of that
place says he took a morning drive
through cottonwood iorest north OF
town, field glass in hand. to Investigate
the bird life of that part of the valley.
He does most of his work with the field
glass, and only kills birds as specimens
when he finds something new or doubt
full that needs detailed study. The true
ornithologist is friend to the birds, and
the last one to encourage their indis.
criminate slaughter.
Thirty different species OF birds were
identified during the drive, as follows :
Cinnamon teal. kildeer,s Carolina dove,
valley quail, desert sparrow hawk,
Nutall'a woodpecker, Arkansas king
bird, road runner, black fly catcher,
turkey vulture, red-winged blackbird,
yellow-necked biackbird, Brewers
black bird, western meadow lark. Bull
locks oriole, house finch, Hermsn's song
sparrow, California shrike, Audubon's
warbler, summer warbler, western yel-
low throat, least virio, blue gnat catch
er, western bluebird, mocking bird. red
shaft flicker.

Ever Recorded at This Season.

Futures Declined 10 Points-The Spot
Markets Quiet and at a Decline of
1-I6to 1-sc-Values Broken in Lead
ing Industrial Stocks-A Little Gain
in the Grain Markets-The Local
Trade Generally Quiet.
Savannah, Sept 1.-THE most interesting
and likewise discouraging feature in the local
market to-day was the decline OF lsc on cot
ton. There was fair demand, but the tone
was easy at the decline. The lowest price
ever reached at this season Of the year was
recorded. In rosin there was some trading,
nut nothing doing in the spirits turpentine
market The general markets were quiet
and steady
There was a lively business done in stocks
At the New York Exchange. but it was at the
EXPENSE of values. Sugar led the decline
whisky, Chicago and Reading followed The
railway list closed steady with some slight
declines.
Wheat was once more the leading grain in
the Chicago Board of Trade. 1t fluctuated
somewhat, but closed frmer at a gain of Isc
for December. Cash wheat was unchanged.
The report OF frosts. in the west started
firm corn market, but there were no orders,
and It tecame dull and heavy. 1t subse-
ouently advanced in sympathy with wheat
and closed firm at u higher than Saturday.
oats were firm and higher. Provisions were
firm and unchanged Cotton futures fell
twelve points and closed barely steady at the
decline. The heavy port receipts and favora-
bic crop conditions acted strongly against
values The southern spot markets were
quiet and easy al a decline ranging between
lIs. to &c. The prices now are the lowest
on record, with very little encouragement for
an immediate advance in values.
The following resume of the different mar
kets will show the tone and the quotations at
the close to-day.

Cotton reached the lowest notch ever re-
corded at this season Of the year The con-
