RAwsoN GARDENER.

SAMUEL RAWSON GARDENER.
 In truth, fine though his perception of character, after long years of intimate study, came to be, it was in grasp of principles, and in dealing with the his- tory as a whole, that Gardiner's chief strength lay. It was for that reason that he could turn aside for moment from his immediate task, marshal his facts, as it were in an instant, and scathe in brief review an ignoble or nasty adventurer, or pulverize an fn- genious argument as he did when he wrote "What Gunpowder Plot Was" He was at home in the seventeenth cen tury because he knew its principles as we'll as he knew it's men.
 Since his great book began to be vide Iy read it has often been questioned whether Gardiners would be a .perma- nent fame. Historical regulations, which used to be easily made, are now more hardly won but perish more rapid ly. Tried by Professor Bury's standard, the standard of that remarkable inau- gural lecture at cambridge which marks an epoch in historical study. It is not certain that the History of England, 1603-1655," will survive, but this at least is certain. that the "Short History of the English Peoples" will die before it, and that if 1t dies, '"The Norman Con- quest" and even "The Constitutional History of England" will not be long in following it to to the tomb.-W.

WE GROW poETIcAL w1rHYEARs.

WE GROW PoETICAL WITH YEARS.
 It was in his maturer years that Solomon wrote vanitas vanitatis, and the hearts of many eorroborate his evidence. And thus it comes to pass that the positive spirit, when it has weighed the world and found it want ing, tends to be transmitted into the poetical spirit. In other words, the man who first looks on life from the posi- tive point of view is very apt to change his position and look on it from the po- etical. Weary of the present, he seeks to set himsel at a distance from it, in the future or the past. To some it may seem little less. than paradox that a man should grow more poetical with years. Youth is ebfnmonly considered as the especial season of the flower of poetry. Yet, if we consider 1t this youthful poetry really concerns itself with the here and now which are so entirely absorbing to positive minds; and the transition from the positive to the poetical outlook upon life is really very natural, very analogous Yb other natural processes. The physiologist traces the growth of the race in the growth of a single individual of it from the earliest protoplasrnie germ to the complexity of the mature animal. So, too the psychologist may trace the de- velopinent of the mind; the child and the savage furnish us with an example which has become trite, and, in like manner, the individual, in society no longer primitive, shows, in his develop ment from youth to manhood, the paral- Tel change through which that society has passed.-H. Herbert Dodwell, in Macmillan's.

WHEN A GREEN GIRL SHOPS.
Funny Things Happen, but the LaugE
 is Not One-Sided.

uA44ly L4c-RPGAAs BuL LLle ] is Not One-Sided.
 When a green girl goes marketing many funny things happen which tradespeople, if they had a keener sense of the incongruities of human life, could utilize to advantage at story-tell- ing times. When a girl who had not visited butcher and baker since the time when as child she ran errands for her mother went to buy meat for the first time she had decided upon lamb chops.
 French or striker" the matter-of- fact butcher asked, holding his meat ax in the air.
 A flush of confusion overspread the girls face as she realized in a flash that there are some very simple yet very important facts that a girl re- mains ignorant of who spends her days at an office desk.
 Won't you please explain?" she asked timidIy.
 Do you want the bone broken or left whole?" answered he@butcher. "If break it, we call that strike. Left whole it is French"
 "oh!" said the girl, relieved. This bJSAN olIlpL CoLlbAlSllEd SUUu lSiiOW- ship to the extent that when the girl asked for steak the next day was asked where she wanted it cut off from she was able, without embarrassment, to confess that she didn't know, and thus learned her first in meat buying.
 Sometimes, too, the laugh is on the tradesman. For instance, this same girl was in quest of apples for apple sauce, and, as every housekeeper knows the sourer the apples the sweeter the sause. But the girl didn't explain this to the grocer She merely asked him if ''these apples were sour," and he. jumping to the conclusion that she wanted them to eat, replied promptly:
 
 "Then they won't do," said the girl, quite as promptly. T want them for sauce."
 oh, we'll" said the tradesmen has, tening to rectify his error; "they are all right for that. A lady in here the other day was bragging on. those ap- ples for sauce; says they're the best ap- pies for sauce she's had this summer"
 But the girl didn't buy them. She went farther down the street and patronized another grocer.-Washingt Post.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON MARKET.

New Orleans, Oct. 23.-Spot cotton
easy and there was apparently no ur-
gent demand except for a grade; sales,
1850 bales, including $500 to arrive.
Quotations declined 3-16 on all grades.
Futures at the opening were 8 to 5
points higher than yesterdays closing.
Prices were showing their usual buoy
ant tone and bulls were looking for
another strong advance when rumorS
were received from several quarters
that war had been declared between
Russia and Japan. These, together
with another rumor of large crop
estimate caused heavy selling by shorts
and liquidation by longs in the New
York market, operations which were
quickly taken up by local traders.
Even a bad forecast predicting frosts
in many sections and heavy frosts in
some did not have the effect of stop
ping the selling and late in the morn
ing prices were to points lower
than the close of yesterday and from
10 to II points lower than the highest
level in the morning. In the late trad
ing there was an improvement of a
few points, to points on the early
positions including February, while
the more distant months from March
to July lost points each.

COTTON FUTURES.

New York, Oct. 2S.-The cotton mar
ket opened firm at unchanged prices to
an advance of I points and showed a
nttle Iurther strength on the call, in
sympathy with the recovery in Liver
pool, which market, after opening low
er than expected, had rallied to about
the level considered due on the New
York closing of the previous night. An
other factor in the early tirmness was
private reports of frosts along the
Northern Texas line and anticipations
that the into-sight for the week would
fall below early estimates. On the
other hand, port receipts for the day
bid fair to prove heavy, and the re-
cent advances naturally attracted more
or less realizing, so that soon after
the call the advancing tendency was
checked. The market continued fair
ly steady for a time, when a rumor
was circulated that war was to be
declared between Japan and Russia
Tbs led to a sharp break, which car
ried prices down about SOILS points
from the best of the morning. The re-
port seemed to have little definite ba-
sis, however, and while the estimated
receipts for the leading points to-mor-
row were moderately dull. the official
forecast called for frosts in the west
ern belt, and by midday the market
had returned to within a point or two
of yesterdays finals. After this it
ruled irregular, first selling off under
realizing, and then toward the close
recovering most of the loss as a result
of renewed bull support. Trading was
fairly active during the entire session,
but mostly professional in character.
The market closed steady, net 6 points
lower to points higher. Sales were
estimated at 900, 900 bales.

SPIRITS. The turpentine market
ruled fairly active during the week.
About midweek the market rose to it's
high point at SIC, with the demand
good and the offerings literally taken.
The demand was we'll distributed be-
tween domestic and foreign exporters.
The receipts were not large, and the
belief that they are not to show any
large increase the remainder of the
season, gives exporters more confidence
in operating on the theory that prices
are not to drop from the prices they
are now paying. Reactions are looked
for, but none are looking to see the
bottom drop out. Conditions in the
manufacturing centers call for large
supplies of pure turpentine, and Sa-
vannah is being drawn upon for much
of these supplies. To-day's market
