Co. say of cotton to-day: Europe is
slowly absorbing the Southern shipments
at quotations slightly below Sd, but the
temper in this country in every section
continues exceedingly bearish on cotton.
We hear nothing but bearish reports from
one section of the cotton belt to the other.
Every one expects the heavy receipts will
break the market still further before the
bottom is reached. There is, however, a
slowly increasing investment demand at
each point decline, as people not connect
ed with the cotton trade buy with the idea
of following the market down. To-day
cotton for May delivery sold at the low
est price of 1894. and within 4 points of
the lowest of 1895, with October at the
lowest price even known on the exchange
We do not remember to have seen the
trade so uncertain and at such extremely
low prices"

savannah's Progress HeraIded.
From the Brainbridge Democrat.

Our esteemed contemporary, the Savan-
nah Morning News, recently issued a spe-
cial edition devoted to the commercial
progress of that pretty and fiourishhg
city. The statistics adduced prove that
Savannah is going straight ahead. Her
trade for the fiscal year just elapsed is
computed at S125 900 900. which represents
an increase of about 10 per cent. over the
year preceding; this advance, furthermore,
Is steady and substantial. Savannah's
prospects to-day are believed by the News
to be better than ever before and we have
not the least doubt that this opinion Is
correct. Georgia's marine metropolis de-
serves to be congratulated not only upon
her commercial progress, but upon having
such a fine newspaper as the Morning
News to contribute to it and herald it
abroad.

and as to these there Is also recorded a
