CarIyle to Thackeray.

Thackeray had asked Carlyle to send
in something for The Cornhill Maga-
zine, and this is Carlyle's reply:
Oct 20, 1859.
DEAR THAcKERAY-Rieht gladly I would if
only could, but can yet bethink me OF moth
ing in the least likely. Indeed am SO crushed
to death amid PruSsian rubbish these long
wears past have nearly lost the power Of
thinking in any form and an possessed by one
sad futile ghost of q thought. How am to
get out of this cursed thing alive? If ever do
live to get out Of it and find the Thackeray
magazine and editor still lively, then!
Meanwhile do not quite give the matter up
your matter, mean-as desperate, and If
any possibility do offer be sure will lay hold
O. l.. With prayers for the new periodical and
Won, YOURS ever T. CARLYLE.
-Cornhill Magazine.

BOSTON, Jan. 12-The American Wool and
Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow of the wool
market: The sales this week have fallen or
nearly 81 per cent from the previous week. Not
withstanding this fact the market is possessed of
more interesting features than then Though
much less active, it is broader market. Where
a short time since half dozen gigantic mnls
were absorbing all attention by reason of their
eargerness to pick up round amounts of staple
territory. there is now a widespread inquiry from
mills Of every class for wool of great many diff
ferent grades, and better inquiry is highly indt-
cative of active market in very short time
Territory wools especially those having staple IN
them, have been inquired for as have certain
lines of heeces, pulled woods and greasy capes
Prices are fully as firm week ago. and in
some cases are more 50, notably in delaine woo's
large business is ANTICIPATED by everybody with
in a few weeks. and there is consequently every
inducement to keep quotations at a high figure
The sales of the week amount to 2 2960 600 pounds
domestic and 1,O72.000 pounds foreign, making a
total of 330s COO pounds against total of 765O0O0
pounds for the previous week.

NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-The dry goods market.
with its dull conditions was rendered more
strikingly quiet to-day By the dismal weather con-
litions which kept local and nearby buyers at
their own places OF business. At such times as
the present weather seems to be a more active
agent in deciding the amount of business that is
transacted during the day. Mail orders were
slightly heavier to-day, but there is no improve
rnent in the cotton goods situation. Wcolens con-
tinue fairly active in all grades. early buying Of
heavy weight goods being of good average proper
lions In staple cottons the demand is limited to
actual necessities. and is light. Print cloths
are again reported dull in all markets.

About Senator Mason.

A member of the House tells cnother story
on Senator Mason, concerning Il lady who
keeps a local boarding house. The senator
boarded there for awhile, as did ne rer re-
sentative. The lady Belongs 10 one of the
well-known churches here, and is very
punctual in her attendance ON morning SerV-
ices. For this she insists that her
boarders must be down early tor breakfast
Sunday morning. The senator was not
aware of this regulation and his first Sun
day in the house came downstairs rather
late.
You are not on time this morning, sena-
tor said the lady gently, but rather re-
provingly.
mo. madam. spent half hour on my
knees this morning.
THAT was very praiseworthy of you,''
spoke up the boarding mistress.
