Savannah, Jan. 1.-THE principal event
in the leading local markets to-day was
the passing of the 800, 900 bales mark in the
receipts of cotton so far this season. The
total reached 9O3, $40 bales to date, and if
the receipts keep up as well as they did
last year, the million-mark will be reached
in about seven to eight weeks. The local
market remained steady and unchanged,
with sales of spots amounting to 755 bales.
The spirits turpentine market was firm
and the offerings were in strong demand
at &c. The rosin market was firm, with
an advance on G grade. The wholesale
markets were steady and generally I'M

different markets, both local and tele-

New York, JAM 11.-Riordan & Co say
of cotton to-day: "A decline of one and
one-half siXty-fourth in Liverpool this
morning precipitated considerable liqui-
dalton in the local cotton market and as
a result prices are slightly lower. AL
though the situation seemed TO warrant
some decline. the same eager buying on
all recessions that has been the feature
of trading for two months past prevented
any break. Receipts were large, but this.
as usual, was ignored. May opened at
5,SSc, declined to 5.S5c, rallied to 5.SSc, and
closed at 5.S7c TO 5SSc, with the tone of the
market steady There was more outside
business to-day, and it would not surprise
us to see the deadlock broken by good
liquidation and lower prices"

he had a. squested Governor Tanner that
himself and command be relieved. as

continue to do effective work in disarm-

More negroes arrive daily in consign-
ments of three ard five and take places
in the mines. They work but little.
however, and as fast as some arrive
others leave. The negroes become bold
er each day, and now openly parade
the streets unarmed, while white union
miners watch them with scowlinS and
unwelcome expressions. As the ne

more enraged, and a serious clash may
be looked for at any time.
