New York, September 29.-The Commer- cial-Advertiser's London financial cable gram says:
 The market here was lethargic and dull all around today. There was practically no tension because of the monetary and political apprehensions which prevailed. The American department was featureless. Prices were lower, following the New York lead, though the quotations generally were above parity. Berlin apparently is still in- clined to sell.
 Money was not so scarce today as was expected owing to the repayment made yesterday by the bank. Discount was a shade easier Gold to the amount of f3O GOO steady, but quieter.

 Fairchild and Hobson's Cotton Letter to H. D. Cothran and Company. New Orleans, September 29.-Cotton has shown no decided tendency this week, bu- lures gaining about 13 points, while spot cotton lost hc. In dry goods the situation remains virtually unchanged. business be- ing restricted to some extent by the ob- serving of Jewish holidays, which prompts the sale conditions for next week In view of further Jewish holidays During the week. picking has made rapid progress, except at points in Texas, where high wa ter and rain interferred with the gathering of the crop. As result the crop has been marketed quite freely. There has been lots of short crop talk during the past few days as we'll as general complaints of in- sect damage in many states. Although yesterdays weekly movement and supply statements were favorable to shorts, the Chronicle report of today was impressive ly bullish as regards the probable size of the crop. 1t stating that the yield Is disap- pointing and in many districts is nearing completion. This statement alarmed Liver pool and served as a cloak on the visible statement, contracts in the English mar ket gaining to 5-64ths, while spots ad- vanced 3-16ths to 61z for middling on sales of 2OOO bales The same influences that governed Liverpool this morning controll- ed the situation in America today.

Governor Aaron V. Brown, OF Tennessee,
was a Chesterfield for pofiteness and a
Taileyrand for wit. When he, a much
admired widower, was paying his address,
es--as yet unavowed-to an attractive
young widow, he called at her house one
day and was ushered into room darkened
to the degree which the prevailing fashion
OF those days declared to be elegant, and
before he governor had familiarized him
self with the surrounding objects in the
gloom the young widow entered the room.
With enthusiastic devotion he advanced
to meet her hastily, not noticing low
stool directly IN his pathway; uuhappiiy
he mbled over 1t and pumped upon his
knees directly nj the feet OF the object oil
his affections. Before she could utter q
word OF apology or sympathy the adroit
governor, selzpg her hand, exclaimed
"Msdam, a happy accident has brought
me where inclination has long led me-
The formal declaration which followed
was OF course successful, for such ready
gallantry could not be resisted. Ladies

ny "eRosvENoR".

The only lasting greatness is the great
ness OF goodness Other greatness may
have its shoe lickings and tread proud
way to the grave, but the end thereof Is
less to be desired than the end OF faith
fui horse The greatness OF goodness Is not
measured by weight nor by yardstiek, but
by the way the opportunities OF life,
small and great have been utilized for the
intelligent doing of good to Others. This
being SO, the royal ranks OF the great are
mixed company and the small and de-
spised OF the world right often the highest
in rank.
National greatness Is, for those who see
and foresee, summed up in two words
national goodness. The strength of
nation that wants to live as power con-
sists in honesty and purity; just as the
strength of a man consists, not OF the
things he hears of in others, but what he
himself does. National greatness is not a
mystery. 1t Is made or marred by the
individuals composing the nation. Their
share of intelligence, their honesty OF pur-
pose, their self forgetfulness in the pres.
ence of public duty, are the measure OF
their nation. "They" are not over in the
next county. What are you doing for
your country?
A face OF perfect peace is difficult to
find. Our crowds are too eager for gain,
too hurried by social life, too anxious
about the morrow to have time to prepare
serene face for the world to see. Yet
how lovely such face when, here and
there, we find 1t. 1t betokens the setting
of money gain down far below the gain
Of culture, it shows proper estimate OF
what life is worth, 1t is proof In itself OF a
belief that in this world the happy way Is
to live wisely and we'll and to let live.
They who live to forty five. when the
heyday of life and desire is past, with
out seeking and finding definite
way to spend the remainder OF life are OBJ
jects OF pity. Unless we discover by that
time some great working method in the
universe and settle on one for ourselves
this hustling, hurrying, huckstering
family OF human beings will seem like
a witless, aimless mob. With a working
method for our own lives, the feeling
creeps into the heart that there must be
many more like us and the world not
such an aimless affair after all.
The deepest human love is ofttimes the
last to speak OF itself, for fear OF being
misunderstood. Rightly too. The
dashing picture OF gallopng horse is
shown on many a wall. A photograph of
a galloping horse looks unnatural, yet 1t
is the truth, while the picture we approve
is lie. A love scene in play has to be like
that horse. picture OF love that all will
recognize as they think 1t ought to be-
Yet never a love scene has been played or
written that tells the truth OF what hui
man love Is and can do. That is locked
In the hearts of those who know, and they
tell 1t not for fear it be denounced as I'M
like a play or book.
