Exports of Cotton.
Our exports of raw cotton compare

foreign manufacturers who were ship

our mills are using the cotton, and Its

The English Grunting Habit.
From the London Telegraph.


An observant philosopher, who has
lately been devoting considerable atten-
ton to the study Of modern manners. has
been much struck with the habit of
grunting and pseudo-coughing which Is
growing among both sexes and threatens
TO become a public nuisance wherever
two or three men or women are gathered
together. When nobody has anything TO
say some one begins an affected cough
which is merely the Indication of a mind
with nothing in II, or makes a cultural
grunt, to prove that its author is stiIl

people do not exercise a little self-res-
.tralnt and check this pernicious habit we
shall soon be called a nation of snorters
and grunters. On Sunday last 1 was at

"A woman with her young children, and
during the sermon, to which / was listen

the man opposite me, and they all seemed
