Insignificant. January opened at 6.33c,
eased to 6.S0c, advanced TO 6S6c, declined

tone of the market quiet. September and
October were relatively weak to-day, on
the prospect of the rapid opening of the
crop, resulting in heavy early movement.
Their weakness had depressing effect on
the entire list. So bad report from the

can safely be ignored. Our own advces
are unfavorable, and we expect higher

DRY GOODS.

New York, Sept. lathe dry goods
market has ruled comparatively quiet
throughout for cottons and woolens alike.
The demand for the speedy delivery Of
goods bought earlier in the season still
continues demonstrating a lively distri-
button from second hand source. In spite
of this, buyers are sending forward re-
orders of only fair proportions. In wool
en- goods more liberality is shown than in
cotton as a rule, though printed cottons,
fancy calicoes and staple prints are in
steady demand. With jobbers locally, the
buying continues in large amounts and
under easy conditions. Retailers report
sales of fair proportions in all sections of
the country.

"rremendlus Sad Vvhcreforos."

"IIits been so monstrous long ago,
Rufe, and the whenceness and the
wherefores thereof are so tremendous
sad unto my wanderin thoughts till
burned if ! don't raley hate to tell the
truth whilsthistory repeats herself. Hit
was the ups and downs, the trials and
tribulations of that orful day, Rufe,
which driy me away from the old home
where l had spent the golden days of
boyhood Hit was the scandlous scrape
brung down on me by that little scrub
steer of mine, Brindle, them red
leather shoes and that internal long
tail coat, which took me as a green and
tender boy, fresh from the woods and
hilIs-with the dew drops and the hay
seed in my hair-throWed me out into
the cold world alone and made me what
YOU see and what am to-night-a gam
bier which has bet his pile Oh two pair,
queens up, as it were, whilst the other
man belt four aces or a straight flush"
And by this time Brit's face was as
long as a rainy Sunday, whilst the tears
backed up in his eyes till blamed if they
didn't look like two glass marbles.
Raley and truly l did MORALLY hate to
make him 60 on with the proceedins,
but the day and hour had come oncst
more, and so Brit he told the story.

"a Mighty scatteration."

"When | driv up to the front gate Al
old man Larry Benton's that Christ
mas mornin, by gollys, | was feelil
like q four-year-old shod all around
with packs in every foot. Right then
| didn't give a continental durn If the
creeks all run up stream and meat
was goin at four bits a pound. | lit
cut, | did, and roped Brindle t0 the
palms. BY this time the girls had
caught sight of me and here they come.
They were all monstrous glad to see
me, and was more than proud to meet
with them oncst more. II my bold and
reckless and indifferent way l then
leant up agin the gate, whilst the girls
they clustered around me like bees
around a molasses jug, and we pitched
in to have reglar Christmas confabu-
lation jest amongst us gals, as it We're.
Everybody was hayin SIGH a felonious
good time till l couldn't take notice
By and by the girls they got to gigglin
and goin on at a scandlous lick. And
me, like a dad-burned idiot, | thought
was all because Christmas had come
onest more, whilst the air was full OF
music and the turkey in the pot. About
that time l felt somethin BLOWN his
warm breath on the back of my neck,
and when l turned round to see what
was goln on, durn my cats if Brind!e
hadn't chawed out full section of my
long-tail coat, right up and down the
back from collar to hem. Right about
then a high west wind sprung up be-
hind, and jest naturally shucked oil
my coat and bowed it clean out into
the middle of the big road,
Nov, white people, if anybody ever
heard tell of a tremendous confusion
mcnt and mighty scatteration, we had
it right over there on Huckleberry
Ridge that Christmas mornin. The
girls they blushed and laughed and
screamed and made dash for the house,
whilst | lit into my cart, poured the
whip to Brindle and we burnt the wind
for home"
