NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, Nov 9.-The cotton market
opened strong at an advance of to IL
points or at new high level prices and
showed some few points additional gains
on the call, chiefly as a result of the
strength ard activity in Liverpool and
reports that New England spinners, hav-
ing become alarmed over the outlook for
such placed were becoming active buyers.
The advancing tendency was short-lived,
however, as tho district influenced by
very heavy liquidation and reports that
the bull leader had unloaded the best
part of his holdings in expectation of a
reaction to follow the tremendously heavy
receipts, turned easier and while it con-
tinued to meet with heavy buying orders
from shorts and outside sources was de-
pressed to O level about Is to 10 points
net lower on the more active positions
Following this the market steadied IN
spite of heavy estimates for tomorrow
receipts and during the balance of the
session ruled very excited and very ;rreg-
ular though prices, generally speaking
worked upward until near the close they
were again depressed by bear drive and
the market was finally steady at q nct
decline of to tS points. Sales were es-
timated 1T 100000 bales. The heavy
port receipts are ascrlbed by the bulls
to demand from spot dealers and spin
ners While the bears contend that whil''
this may be so. it would apparently nea o
that spinners' immediate requirements
must be pretty we'll filled for the time
being and tina. it also shows the willing
ness OF planters to accept present ST..
prices. Sentiment al through t1ie session
IVES very nervous and unsettled as evi-
denced by the fluctua tons and while there
was considerable selling on the reaction
theory many operators are expressing
themselves as favoring great caution il
so feverish a market. 1t was considered
that the recognized bull leader who was
apparently selling on the initial bulge
was buyer on the decline and room,
operators who sold in the morning coy
cred on the afternoon recovery. Exports
for the day were very heavy.
Receipts of cotton at the ports to-
day 72.025 bales against G6,234 last week
and 346,5S3 last year. Today's receipts
at New Orleans were 24.200 bales against
Is 203 last year and at custom 21,107 bales

PRESIDENT LINCILON'S PROCLA-
NATION

After the raid in the autumn of 1862
President Lincoln had issued his proc
lamation under date OF September 22d
declaring that all slaves should be
emancipated on January /, 1868, in
every state where armed rebellion still
existed. We were interested to learn
at the close of the evening as ms
their masters.
While we were resting at Hamilton,
as the gunboats on the stocks were
burning, we chatted with the slaves
who stood about watching proceed
ings. An intelligent slave, VINO was
assistant foreman Of the shipyard, was
a good specimen of the shrewd, retic-
ent, observing negro. Evidently his
family lived in the neighborhood, and
all his worldly interests centered
there. He was not going to say or do
anything while we were preset. which
could be reported to his injury when
we had gone, hence he was cautious
and non-committal in answering our
questions.
Uncle, have you heard about Pres
ident Lincoln's proclamation"
Use heard suthin'."
What have you heard?'
Some says one thin, and some says
another"
We'll, what do they say?"
Some say. Massa Linkum says fus'
o Janeway all de slaves go free.
T'others say faint so, der's nothin'
in it."
But what do you think, Uncle?"
Chile" said the old man, looking
his %questioner straight in the eye, Il
don't think nothin'. l jus SLAMS a
waitin', an keeps a hopin'."
And that told the whole story for
him. and for many another in those
days.
Governor Andrew of Massachusetts
gave me an illustration of this shrewd-
ness of the negro in avoiding the COM
promising of himself when he was
seeking information on a point of in
tense personal interest. A friend of
the governor from Boston was at a
hotel in Charleston, W. Va, during
the hurried trial of John Brown, in
1859. In the early morning, before he
had arisen, a slave came into his room
according to southern custom, to kim
die a fire for him to dress by. The

of whom he had been told; he was not
afraid to face real shaTpshooters,
whom he could see, in his path Of
duty. Was that man a craven coward?
or was he a brave soldier?

A SOLDIERS SENSE OF DUTY

A SOLDlERS OF Duly
In facing actual dtnger Greed, n
of the emancipated, showed that ne
was no coward. He never shirked or
wavered under fire. One day in the
Petersburg trenches our regiment oc-
cupied the extreme picket front. The
enemy's lines were not more than a
stones throw from ours at that point.
Sharp firing was going on at MONDAY,
We who were in the trenches kept
close under cover just then. To show
q head above the works was sure to
bring a shot from the enemy. Greed
came in sight from the camp at the
rear, bringing cur dinner. AS we saw
him in a traverse beyond, we called
cut t. him not to mount the bank
above it, as he would surely be fired
at. and we would wait for our dinner
until its bringing was safer.
Undaunted, Greed showed himself
on the crest of the hill, a conspicuous
mark for the sharpshooters. Bullets
few about him, and a spherical case
shot bowled past him. With measur-
ed strides he kept on, swinging his
dinner pail, as ~ he had no con-
seriousness of impending danger, until
the shower of bullets was passed, and
h. had reached the trench where we
sat under cover.
I'VE called to you to stop back out
of the fire. Creed" we said.
Might as well, come on, sab, unless
a bullet stop me. Use bringin' yer
dinnah, sab. If | go down, sab, now's

MANSON MURDER TRIAL.
Dean Smith Of Yale aud ecused's Hut
band Testify.

Putnam, Conn, March 20-The de-
Tense in the case of Mrs. Mary Manson
accused of numbering Mrs. Julia Will
son by administering poison brought on
number Of important witnesses.
James NJ. Manson, husband Of the ac-
cused woman, was one of them. He tes-
titled that his home was in Bridgeport,
that he is a carpenter by trade, with
two children, a boy of twelve and
girl Of six. He said that he knew his
wife was addicted to taking laudanum,
that he therefore arranged for her to
go to a Mrs. Plumley's house and be
treated.
On cross-eXamination by Prosecuting
Attorney Hunter, Mr.. Manson said that
on one occasion when he was at the
Wilson house, Mrs. Wilson informed
him that she took arsenic. He then de-
sired to have his wife leave the house
as he feared she might become involved
in trouble through it.
John Manson, aged twelve years, the
son of the accused, was then called. In
his testimony he said that while stay
ing at the Plumley house with his moth
er he had to go to Mrs. Wilson's for a
blade to a lawn mower. While he was
in the house he saw Mrs. Wilson take
some white powder from box and cat
it. She cautioned the boy not TO
touch it, as he might get poisoned. He
also said that Ora Wilson came to Mrs.
Plumley's to tell Mrs. Manson that his
mother wanted her to nurse her. Cross
examination failed to shake the boys
testimony.
George o. Balch, keeper of a general
store in Ashford, testified that he had
often sold paregoric to the Wilson fam
lily by the quart, charging it to Mrs.
Wilson.
DR.. Herbert E. Smith, dean of the
Yale medical school, was the last wit
ness of the day. He described in de-
tail the examination he had made of a
portion of Mrs. Wilson which was
brought to him by Coroner Bill, and
told of finding arsenic in it. He cor
roborated portions of the testimony of
DR.. Frank Converse. Asked concerning
DIR. VOLTS theory that two large doses
of arsenic were administered to Mrs.
Wilson just prior to death, Dr. Smith
said that while it was possible it was
not a necessary conclusion.
DR.. Smith was still on the stand when
adjournment was taken at o'clock.
