Dutch Streets.

Commend us to the ever tranquil
Dutch streets, with their mellow, an
tiQue houses These mostly follow cir
Giles, as Is to be expected in a fortified
place. But the typical Dutch street,
found everywhere, is the line of houses
by the canal, a range Of old trees in
front. shading the Indian red brick
behind, with its bright white window
sashes, as bright as much polished
brass.
Nothing Is more suggestive Of tran.
quill rcpose and old fashion. They
stretch along the broad canal before
them, where bridges cross and barges
lie together alongside. Even in very
populous capitals we come in the
suburbs on some delightful, retired
bits of canal, leaving much the same
effect as does Church row at IIamp-
stead.
Old fashioned, well to do folk live
here in retirement. There is one such
at the entrance Of The Hague on the
S~cheyeningen side, where the charm
Ing woods begin. Anything more old
world and solemnly attractive cannot
be imagined. We might well fancy
ourselves back to the days of Sir, Will
liam Temple and of William Of Orange,

banks.-Gentleman's Magazine.

The province Of Haute-M Marine was

OF 1870. They had already occupied

New York March 23.-The market COR
cotton futures today broke to 70 points
under active liquidat on by local and
foreign interests, prolnpted by an array
of bearish influences, the equal Of which
has seldom been brought to act on the
market in recent times.
AS a response to disappointing liver
pool cables the market opened 4 to
points lower on near months and un-
changed to points lower on far
months, steady in tone. Positive weak
ness of it's own cropped out later aud
prices withered several points further.
Feeble rallies only occurred during the
balance of the session and sentiment in
the pit continued of bearish average.
Reports that the south was releasing
the balance of spot holdings and selling
the new crop positions short, coupled
yet received this season, figured Us lead
ing factors.
But probably the most potent influence
of the day was a batch of cahlegrams
from Liverpool depicting great nervous
ness on the part of the Manchester spin
ners as a result of reports from India
to the effect that famine conditions were
causing serious changes for the worse
in the Far East cloth market, leading to
re-sales of cloths and yarns held by
spectators and others in England.
Though slow to respond to this informa-
ton, the local market eventually swung
downward under the Indian news, more
particularly as final reports from Liver
pool were indicative of weakness in pres
ent crop positions there.
The market was finally quiet and steady
in tone with prices net 8 to 13 points
lower on near months, and l to points
net lower on far motnhs.
