Defense of Slang.
From Booklovers' Magazine.

FrUHI BookI0vers' Magazine
SO far from being an evidence of a
national levity and lack of seriousness
slang is the language of sincerity. 1t is
the result of an instructive effort to get as
far away as possible from everything like
pretentiousness. 1t is the antipodes of
pathos 1t is the language of the whole
people, because it is expressive of the
national sense of humor that is never SO
Keen as when 1t contempIates with a. ioy
likewise unutterable the spectacle presented
by fake exposed 1t is blunt 1t is crude,
= brutal sometimes, but 1t is always
sincere. 1t directs against the eitadels of
evil the mighty enginery of laughter. IT
does for our nascent abuses what the
mordant satire of Martial and JuyenaI
failed to do for decadent Rome.

decorations, which are a curious blending
of geometrical figures and severely con-
ventional lines in endless yet ever new
convolutions.
The marble carving Is wonderful. The
lace work and fretwork IS beyond COMPARE
, son with any similar product OF human
genius and skill, and the brain Is bewilder-
ed by the beauty and the glory OF the col
ors and the forms. They are difficult to
appreciate at the first visit and require
long and careful study. Every time you
see them you are more impressed than
before. The Spaniards treated them very
badly. Extracts from the Koran appear on
every wall, worked out in fancifu1 Arabic
letters. which always lend themselves
gracefully for decorative purposes.
You cannot look In any direction without
seeing the words, There is no God but
Allah, and Mahomet IS his prophet" This
enc sentence is repeated hundreds OF times
in different lettering. but all of the fnscrlp-
tons are of the most ornamental char
acter None could be more SO. But they
happened TO offend the scruples OF some
ignorant old Spaniard. who had much of the
walls whitewashed and some Of them plas-
tered over to efface this work of the in
fidels.
Damaged by Soldiers.
The DETACHMENT has been since corrected
as far as possible. but human skill and
ingenuity cannot restore the palaces that
were destroyed by the neglect and indiffer-
ences Of the Spanish kings and by the care
lessness of the Spanish soldiers. In 1912
the French troops, under Napoleon, did
enormous damage. They intended to de-
stroy the entire Alhambra. Several towers
were annfhilated and trains Of explosives
were laid under the rest, but the main part
of the palace was saved by the presence OF
mind of Spanish soldier, who cut the fuse.
In 1928 a genius named Jose Contreras
proposed to restore the most important
parts and King Ferdinand VII gave him a
yearly allowance of 81, 500 for that purpose.
With this money Contreras worked mira
cles. and to him and his son, Rafael, who
died in 1890. and his grandson, Mariana,
who is still at work, the entire world owes
a debt Of gratitude. They have not only
restored the finest rooms. but have pre-
vented any further decay or damage. Queen
Isabella, 1.-The bad" was a generous con-
tributor toward the restoration of the AL
hambra, and gave from her private purse
large sums of money to pay the expenses.
Her son, Alfonso XII, was not so generous,
and the present queen has done very little,
and now the money is derived chiefly from

Decline in Cotton Has Not FaeiIi-
tnted Operations ON Cloth Market.
Manchester, Septs 1Sa=-The decline in
cotton has notlfaciHtated operations on
the cloth market. Consumers abroad,
influenced doubtless, by the recent crop
reports, are looking for reductions.
which are not conceded since spot cot
tor is scarcely cheaper.
Cloth sales for early delivery in guam
uty appear to be out of the question.
Frequent inquiries for China staples
for distant delivery occasionally result
ed in business. Offers for India fabrics
were neither numerous nor satisfac-
tory. South American buyers were
fairly busy.
There was a fair inquiry for yarns
transactions, however, were much be-
low the average, though there wac
some improvement in the turn over.
The Savannah morning news., 1903-09-14
WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW.
By VIM. T. williams.

The cotton market was active and
variable. Prices ruled lower early,
then rallied, but fell back again, final
ly closing, firm. The strength was
mostly in the distant months, January
being IA points higher, while near
months are lower, October having lost
IL points. Changes were about the
same in New Orleans, except that Sep
TENDER there broke badly, closing over
40 points lower.
The most gratifying feature of the
market WAS the decreased influence of
manipulative tactics, the trading hav-
ing now become so broad as to be be-
yond individual control No doubt the
bulls fully realize that to attempt to
hold the market and accept all the Of
ferings of the trade now is too big a
contract to undertake. OF course the
clique can still influence prices con-
siderably, but they can no longer
move them up or down at pleasure as
they could do month or SO ago.
Hence, we may now expect the mar
ket to be swayed more by legitimate
influences than has been the case for
some time.
Outside of the apparent withdrawal
of support by aggressive bullish ma
nipulation, the general developments
of the week were rather bullish than
bearish. Crop accounts were very
generally of less favorable character,
quite serious deterioration being re-
ported from some sections, while our
receipts have grown to a respectable
volume. elsewhere the movement is
very Notwithstanding so in
Texas. Late in the week some ap-
prehension was excited by West In
dia storm, said to be threatening the
South Atlantic States. At last ac-
counts this storm has passed over in
to the Gulf, and probably now threat
ems the Mississippi valley, or the
Southwestern States. 1t is believed,
moreover, that the army of small
bulls have been pretty we'll sold out,
and that a considerable-some say
enormous-short interest has lately
been created.
In view of all these real or assumed
facts, it seems quite likely that the
market may de somewhat better for
the moment. But frequent fiuctua-
tions are to be expected and it does
not seem prudent to become too ex-
travagantIy bullish on the strong
spots. Unless the crop gets much
lower in condition, materially lower
prices must be expected eventually.
Stocks were very dull and mostly
lower with sharp losses in some issues
Steel stocks were particularly heavy,
Tennessee Coal and Iron losing several
points. It is rumored that the COM
pany is trying to negotiate a loan Of
SIS, 900, 900, with the suggestion of a
combination with the Colorado con-
Germ. OF course, if such a rumor
| proves true it will sufficiently account
for the recent decline, and probably a
