Hunter Il Co.'S Daily Cotton Letter.
Liverpool was u higher With good de-
mand for spots and sent liberal buying or
ders to this side. our markets opened up 3
points and at one time were full 10 points
above Yesterdays close from which point
there was n slight reaction, but the close
was at tho top There was good selling by
strong people tho advance, aud little
reaction rs now In order after tho % poiut
advance since Saturdays opening. Stocks
were bouyant. showing gains OF to Z per
cent, and IL was plainly demonstrated that
the administration has control OF congress-.
and that the heligelcnt feeling will bc nicr-
cool off. This was peace day. The end Of
the month advance In cotton predicted sew
eral days ago has come, but the root demand
does not keep pace with the higher priceB
for contracts, and the dry goods trade Is IN
. demoralzcd condition. The public holds
aJoof from speculation, and Is In cotton only
10 very small degree. So we can sec little
upon which TO base hopes OF a permanent
or material advance Just now, and advise
taking profits on tho long side and going
short for a turn, The weather is clearing
lighter movement in 1896. Adviccs that come
to hand OF preparations for tho noNt crop
are not calculated to help prices. and the
short interest In the market would not Justify
q squeeze Of the summer months, The clear
ing of the political skies may come AT any
time. but when II does there will hi lots OF
cotton and other stuff for sale, and VIC arc
inclined To tho opinion that peaceful con
discounted and when the public IL let fully
into administration secrets will he the time
to sell out and secure profits. and the very
time not to buy anything.

situation shall he settled one way vi tho
other within sixty hours. The Post VIII give

LEFTwICH, Jan. 3l.-Since our last
we received the sad intelligence that
the infant son of Mr.. and Mrs. Sam
Miller, Of Texas, had been snatched
away from earth to bloom in heaven.
The little one had been suffering for
sometime with meningitis, when the
all-wise Father saw fit to take him
away. We greatly sympathize with
the bereaved ones, but will say to
them, "Look upward, for the spirit of
the dear departed will always be with
you, though his body sleeps in the
Tomb Mrs. Miller and little chill
dren spent the summer with her par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. George Craig, at this
place, who became very much attached
to the little one.
The young people enjoyed them
selves very much at the nice enter
tainment given by Mr.. and Mrs. Wal
ter HardisOn last Thursday night.
Mrs. Fannie Jackson, who has been
sick for some time, we are sorry to say
is no better.
Mrs. Edman Baxter, of Silver Greek
spent several days last week with heI
sister, Mrs. Andy Hardison.
Miss Bessie Fox, of Hurricane, spent
several DAYS last week with relatives m
our midst. She was accompanied
home by Miss Alice Jackson, who in
