Sun's Cotton Review.

New York, Sept 2l-The Suns cotton re- view says: Cotton advanced 1 to points and then lost most of this and closed steady and quiet with sales of Fl 400 bales. Liver pool advanced 21aG3 points for future de- livery with spot sales of 5000 bales at rise of 1-32d. New Orleans advanced points and then lost points of this. Spot cotton here was firm and unchanged Middling uplands sAc & Fory,fo4r t. bales were were sold Monday are estimated at 1000 to 5000 bales, against 59S5 bales last Monda'- ''d 1i,i56 bales for the same day last year.
 Houston received 5i29 bales, against oo33 bales last week and 9o47 last year.
 Memphis received 429 bales. against 50 bales last week and l250 bales last year.
 The port receipts were 2l .523 bales, against II. .3l9 bales last week and l7,5l6 bales for the same time last year.
 230S q week ago and 5533 bales for the same day last year.
 Local showers and cold winds were pre- dicted for western Texas.
 Total in sight September l. 2fi.Ss9 bales. against 3G5. 394 bales during the same time last season. The worlds visible supply is now 227G, ,S95 bales, including 20l3 695 bales of American. against total at this time last year of 1.9l1 1881 bales, of which 1,54s 2S1 bales were American. The exports from the ports thus far this season are 4l,631 bales against S1. 4GG bales at this time last season.
 nort receipts G were considered pretty liberal and on the other hand the Liverpool news was more builish than even some Of the bringing out cotton. as might have been ex pected but as an offset to this it shows the disposition to buy. The rise in Liverpool to- day was due to the fact that spnners were purchasing more freely and also to in creased buying by the local iobbers or scalp CTS, as they are called in Chicago Favor able crop reports were received from Texas and elsewhere, and the undertone of the market was firm. The best friends of cot ion look for reactions downward, but insist that prospects, point to better prices. It is likely to be very interesting this fall and next winter. Further deterioration is re ported in Texas and 1t Is the most important cotton state, the fact not unnaturally has great weight. A bull circular it is believed. will be issued by Neil Bros. during the coming week.

New Things That Are Old. IL, n,,,.l rI,, b1n

In spite of the protests of inventors. and of those who believe they have in vestigated everything since the deluge, that there1 is nothing new under the sun, the psalmist was right when he put that thought into the colloquial language. On the Assyrian slabs, and on more than one old European fresco,, is seen the paddle wheel for boats. although the pro- peller is not in' evidence The bicycle seems to have been known in China more than 200 years ago. and the velocipede was seen in Europe eyen1 before that. On pane of the ancient painted glass in the old church at Stoke Pogis. England, may be seen the representation of a young fellow astride, of one of these machines. He is working ,his way along with the air of a rider who has intr6- duced novelty, and is the object of the unbounded admiration of a multitude of witnesses.

Prices were lower but that was ac- cepted as natural under prevailing condi- tions That long line held by the syndi- cate of iron manu ufacturers continues 10 be the subject of much gossip. It is said con siderable portion of it has been liquidation but the talent does not seem to put much faith in the report and selling of even a moderate quantity by the house having charge of the deal is the signal for raiding Today when a sale of about 200 600 bushels by the firm referred to was made the crowd jumped on prices and forced them through the puts. As a general thing the business lacked interest. Wheat opened from 5S15 to 5Sssc for December, declined to 577sc. closing at 5SSc. 5sc under yesterday. Cash wheat was weak and 1z@plc per bushel lower.

I ouisville Courier-Journal
 If would be invidious to make com parisons among such body of men as compose the Grand Army of the RepuD- lie. but we cannot forbear word as to the fine appearance of the Pennsylvania and New York veterans: They LOOK 10 have been what they are-the hoWer or northern ,manhood-when they started south In 1861. Their uniforms are neat and we'll Kept, their carriage erect and they evidently pay attention to the little niceties of military accoutrement which have not been beneath lthe attention of soldiers great and sfnall since warfare became an art. The Keystone State has the largest, number of Grand Army com rades enrolled; and the Empire Common wealth has enough @to3 garrison the me tropolis. Gatherings are numerous, and friendly rivalry has inspired them to . take care, of upiformsl and equipments, as well as of records. This does not make them any better fighters than were the most careiessly- garbsd veterans from the south or west. Martial glory has been won in the ragged regimentals of tbe old Continentals' as well as in the bravery of pipe clay and plumes. Still. it is a pleasant thing to see such troops on parade. .- .-4..-

Gas rose from 67A to Gg9sg 69 and Sugar from 1059s to 1O1Cq l06As The drop in Chicago Gas from 7112 to 672 yes terday is now attributed to liquidation by a Chicago operator, and his local friends, who had big interest in the pool, me of faiy sSo,f 9 stock and improved trade conditions.
