Cotton Letter

New York, April 6.-The trading was of the most uninterestng character and re- suited in small decline in prices on the cotton exchanges today. Liverpool this morning responded to our weakness of yes- terday by cabling a decline of one and one half sxty-fourths in that market The opening here was three points lower than the close of yesterday. All interest in the market seemed to have disappeared and prices fuctuated within narrow limits dur ing the whole session May opened at 7G3 declined to 7.01, advanced to 7Q6 and closed at 705 to 706, with the tone of the market steady. Operators appear to be convinced that the water will recede from the over flowed districts in the Mississippi Valley in plenty of time to allow the planting of that fertile section, and this conviction has robbed the food news of much of it's iegiti- mate effect on prices.

The following instance Of longevity

readers: My cousin, Mrs. c., had a
siskin given to her in 1881. II had been
bought at a dealers in 1879. In the
autumn Of 1884 il escaped out Of the
window while flying about Mrs. g. q
dressing room, AS it had been in the
habit of doing every morning. Every
effort was made to get it back, but IL
could not be found. Mrs. 9. went away
for the winter and did not return until
the following spring. Her gardener then
told her that during the winter siskin
had squeezed itself into cage of his
which was hanging outside his cottage.
The siskin was sent up to Mrs. 9. and
evinced the greatest delight at seeing
his mistress In fact, there is no doubt
that it was her bird. From that da,
until its death in September. 1896, il
could never be induced to leave its cage.
though the door was often left open Oh
purpose. -London Spectator.

There have been attacks made upon

opposed them have done so mainly
upon the ground that the Presidents
proclamation would prevent prospect
Ing or mining on lands in question.
Similar arguments have been advanced
by senator's from all States interested
except California. This contention
would seem to be wrong. and il would
appear that other motives inspire the
opposition. The forestry commission
