such receipts cannot fail to give appar-
ent confirmation of the extreme crop es-
Inmates. Yet there is time when low

tive demand, reinforced by active spec
ulation, will compete to hoist prices TO
something more like a normal level 1t
is not improbable that the market IS very
near this point now, for present prices are
largely predicated upon matters chiefly of
mere assumption, instead of upon ascer-
tanned facts. There are many careful IN
vestors who enter the market only when
il offers circumstances of unusual induce
ment when, for instance, il is selling
manifestly below the cost of production.
This surely seems such time-when pru-
dent buyers can safely commence to make
an investment. It is very possible that
they may have 20 hold through some
further depression, but yet il may safely
be predicted that nine-tenths of such pur-
chases will be made at higher figures than
those now prevailing.

more general that the demand Is going to

BOOK NOTICES.

Purely Original Verse" by j. Gordon
CoogIer. The neat little volume which
bears this title contains on the title-fiy
leaf the additional legend: Complete
works, and a number of new productions,
in one volume; revised, illustrated and
published by the author" Mr.. Coogler has
been called the Alfred Austin of South
Carolina. The comparison is not just. The
English poet laureate is compelled by cir
cumstances to depend upon hired men to
put his ideas into print and embellish
them with counterfeit presentments of the
pictures which grow and glow in his day
dreams and to leave it to soulless pub
fishers to get the printed volume before
the public Mr.. Coogler is not thus ham,
pered He is poet printer, artist and
publisher; thus the Inspiration of the poet
accompanies the poem through all of its
processes from inception to publication,
permitting il to reach the reader clothed
in habiliments of the authors own choos-
ing In view of this fact, it may be ar
gued that Mr. Coogler is the greatest all
around American poet. Indeed, it may
not be necessary to limit the comparison
to America, or to contemporary times.
Not even Mr.. Shakespeare or Mr.. Byron,
or Mr.. Milton, could compose poem, go
TO a printers case, and compose" 1t, and
then impose" It, and print it. Neither
OF them COulu MAKE pictures 10 SHiDtliSH
what they wrote Mr.. Coog,er can, and
has done ID for his latest volume. And
the pictures are no less purely original
than the verse. Thus are the eternal equi-
ties beautifully sustained. And not only
is Mr.. Coogler an exceptional all-around
poet, but he is a popular priced one. In
his complete works" there are some two
hundred poems, all for one dollar; by mail
one dollar ten. Could any reasonable per-
son expect a lower charge than one-half
cent each for purely original verse, with
Illustrations by the author and his por-
trait into the bargain? Surely not. There
u.s. however, something decidedly disagree
able to MIR. Coogler's admirers on the
tite-hy leaf of the volume. Complete
works." is what the legend says. Is 1t
possible that Mr. Coogler is going 10 turn
his Pegasus out to grass; to quit the
biz" in the vernacular? Perish the
thought! No mans work is complete
until he is laid under the sod, and Mr..
Coogler IS young man yet. The volume
contains his complete works up to date;
but it is morally certain that the foun-
tain of his inspiration has not dried up,
and if it has not, it is reasonable to ex-
pect that he will continue to delight the
earth with a sustained flow of the pure
Nv original" His home and publication Of
flee is at Columbia, S. G.

The Exchange Market.

New York, Sept. 23.-The principal
change which took place in our exchange
market since our review of Sept. l6 is a
decline of about PC per pound in 60 days
and &c per pound in 80 days sterling. Con-
tinental bills and short sterling and cables
are about the same, and even a shade
higher than a week ago The decline ia
long sterling came gradually at first, as
long as the private discount in London
was kept below 2 per cent, but at
bound yesterday, when the Bank of Eng
land advanced it's official discount rate
from 21A to per cent. and the private
discount jumped from to 25s per cent.
This sudden advance in the English dis
count rate was caused by the purchase
and engagement for shipment to this coun-
try Of about IS, 900 coo to $6000,00O gold.
With demand sterling at $f.S3%G44 all
this week this operation, in contrast to the
first gold imports of the season, should
certainly show a profit to the importers,
but with the advance In money and price
of bar gold to 7S.0i5 in England further
decline in demand sterling here may be
needed before any more gold can be inl-
ported.
To resist such a further decline we have
neither merchandise imports nor the low
money market of last year, which could
absorb the exchange drawn against this
autumn's exports of cereals and cotton
The stocks and bonds that Europe might
return here are not sufficient in amount
to stem the tide over a week or too, and
the chances, therefore, are for further
decline in exchange, further gold imports
and a further advance in the European
money markets until such time as our
own money market may have returned
to something like 11zG2 per cent, as
against 4d5 per cent during the past fort
night. That our money market may re-
turn to a reasonable level within two or
three weeks is quite probable unless the
present dullness and depression in our
| stock market should change to renewed
strength and activity before the money
market can settle down.
The weeks actual receipts of cotton
bills show marked increase, while grain
bills were comparatively scarce. Wheat
does not seem to be needed in Europe this
year, but on the other hand corn will
probably be shipped in large quantity Both
grain and cotton will probably have to
go at low prices and our beautiful crops
of this year may not bring within $780,
| COO, 600 of those of last year. With our
| present tariff, however, and the conse-
duent paucity of our imports, a good bal
ance of trade is assured. 1t remains to
! be seen, however, how much longer Eu-
rope can take out goods and pay for
them in gold, instead of those products
of it's own which our tariff so severely eX-
| cludes from our shores.
