WOOL

Boston, September 4-The American
Wool and Cotton Reporter says:
While n few OF the markets have not as-
grcsated the usual weekly sales, others
have shown a marked increase. Prices
are steady ana The market has manifested
a noticeable activity in fine No. ! and
washed woods.
There is still difference i'm the IDEAS Of
l,Iver ana and seller as TO prices. But
few sales have been made through con-
cessions on the part of the holder Values
are firm. while the general prosperity IN
America is improving.
Trade i'm clothing is expected TO be OF
much larger proportions than in two pre-
cediug fan and winter seasons.
Tho aggregate sales of the market IN
Boston. New York and Philadelphia are
$50. 500 lbs, against ill5,lO0 lbs for the
corresponding period year ago.
I'm Boston the sales of the week amount
10 3.10l 600 lbs The market is more active
i'm fine No 1 washed with fair demand
for y and above woods.
The sales i'm this market for the past SIX
weeks despite the quiet surface, have av-
eragcd about 100000 lbs.

ton, We shall take lofty ground-look

circamscribes our vision-beyOnd the
passing, ileeting point of time on
which We stand-and 50 east oar votes

lay on earth a broad and solid founda-
tion for that enduring knowledge which
goes on increasing through increasing
eternity.
Before lac finished il was evident that
opposition had almost faded away. At
the conclusion Of his speech the vote
was taken, and the bill To repeal was
lost {; the school law was saved.
The great courage and power Of Mr..
Stevens defense OF the public schools
was shown in the fact that almost single
handed and alone he met and vanquish-
ed tremendous uprising of the COM
bined powers Of fear, prejudice and ig-
nOrInce. In this great crisis he was
fearlessly aided by Governor Wolf. who
incurred the passing Odium OF his own
party, but gained lasting honor from
the firm stand he took in the cause Of
popular education.

Appendicitis and its Treatment.

It is may long year since 50 nIIcn
unscientiiic and unnecessary butchery
has been INDUCED in as is recorded IN
the treatment Of appendicitis in the last

symptoms that might be attributed to
dozen other causes are charged to ap-
pendicitis, and "A continuation of them
suggests experiments To tine minds Of
the dociors, and the operating table
