AUTUMNAL.

Now the pumpkin On the vine, Like a carafe Full of wine. Makes the urchin's Freckles shine. Now the chestnut Gayly pops From the burr and While it drops, All our golden Dream it tops Now the partridge Blithely drums, And no more the Rumble buns Where the zephyr Hits the plums. Now the Katy &idlet's shriek And the cricket's Squeaky squeak And the "skeeter's" Creaky Creak. Tell us autumn On the scene Bangs her ribboned Tambourine In a manner Most serene. While the apple Gold and red To the poets Vision wed. Falls and hits us On the head.

advices were more favorable than an
ticipated, and our market in sympathy
opened unchanged, advanced 6 to z
llater on fresh buying, closing at net
gain of points. Port receipts for the
five days are 10000 in excess of last
year. The semi-weekly interior receipts
were $4,000 against SO, 600 last year, and
$1,000 year before last, being the larg-
est on record for this time of the year.
The loss in stock, however, was $4,000
against 10000 last year, and $4,000 year
before Rst The movement continues
large, but everything appertaining to
facts is ignored, and sentiment is ram
PANTY bullish now on the expected
market falling off in receipts during
March These assertions have been in
circulation since December and al
though the interim has proven the in
correctness of such claims they are as
vigorously disseminated from week to
week and accepted, only to meet with
out realization. Gables predicting the
long anticipated perpendicular drop in
the movement during March also occa-
stoned the firmness in Liverpool to-
day. We must have a decided decrease
in receipts soon, or short crop advo-
Gates must abandon their estimates
The trade have been working on a
small crop since the issuance of the
bureaus estimate on Dec. /, and the
movement on its face points to a crop
of 10,933, 600: therefore those believing
and working on a crop of 100000 or
under cannot continue to assert that
these figures are correct, but they will
have to prove that such is the case.
For the present manipulation and SEN
timent sustain values, consequently if
new buying can be attracted to the ar
ticle prices may be maintained

Murphy s. Co.'s cotton Letter.

New York Feb. 26.-About the only
feature in to-days market was the is
suing of notices on about $4,000 bales
of March contracts, however, it had
only a temporary effect as they were
all taken care of and prices advanced
from to 6 points over opening fig
ures. The market ruled dull and
rather quiet throughout the entire
session. trading again being restricted
on account of the continued trouble
with telegraphic service. Port re-
ceipts footed up about 25,000, against
$4,000 last year Estimates to-nlor-
row for Houston are 1000, against g.
000 New orleans 10000, against 5000
last year. However, locals paid little
attention to the movements at all al
though the continued interest in re-
ceipts has reduced bullish enthusiasm
and there is a disposition on part of
locals to realize when they can do so
to any advantage but offerings to any
great extent soon depresses prices.
New York stock on contract cotton
is now about 100000 bales with indi-
cation of further increase of 10000
within the next week or so. Towards
the close of the market some buying
for New Orleans and locals improved
prices some to points. The sit
uation at present is rather mixed but
sentiment in the main is rather
bullish.

firm, were largely responsible for the
sudden show of strength. Liverpool
quickly stiffened UP to conform with
the firmness here, and Europe sent a
goodly number of buying orders to
their representatives on this side.
While there was some slight reaction
in the market later in the day under
fitful room selling for profits, the gen
eral ruling of the market was firm with
the close steady and net, 4 to Z points
higher. Wall street and commission
houses were prominent buyers of the
May and July contracts, while room
bulls picked up stray lots of August
and October. Reports from spinning
centers and the dry goods districts We're
very reassuring. Total export clear
ances were quite double the total port
receipts for the day.
