 NEW YORK, Oct. 13.--The market has been persistently hammered throughout the day. and although the closing shows a loss of IS points. the resistance to the decline is striking when the pressure and the re- ports that farmers are letting go holdings are considered. From what we can learn, farmers are not selling. but that does not say that the interior buyers and speculatory have not been forced to part with their holdings In fact the latter seems to be the case. and spot markets generally are lower as a result, At the decline there was quite a bit of buying by one of the leading spot interests usually considered to be fore runnef of a change for the better. Spot people usually buy futures only when they are able to sell spots to good advantago and buying of this character implies that spinners are again in the market for new business. The Census Bureaus report of cotton ginned to October 18th will be pub lished piecemeal, probably towards ,4e end of october or beginning of November as the department has decided to give the details by States and sections as rapidly they can be made up It is well known that the figures will show very large amount naready Sginned. and one effect of the forth ~ss.l+s4,ar statement will be felt In the dispo- ~sslon of the public to keep off the long side nntil after it's appearance The market is lhng left without public support for the time nnd bears are making the most of the op. nortunfty. Unless the confidence of farm srs in the higher prices should be under mined and they are frightened into selling now the position is very dangerous.

Dor for the children Of the home.
Charlotte Cushman said:
mo artist work is so high, so noble,
so grand, so enduring. so important for
all time as the making Of character in
a child" -.-s
The rearing. and the education OF
children are the supreme educators and
civilizing influences for the human
race. Victor Hugo was wont 70 say
that the most sublime psalm that can
be heard on this earth is the lsping
of a human soul from the lips of child
hood; and it is the pity and love and
solicitude Of parents for their children
which are the parents of the finest vir-
tues in the whole world. The people
who dislike children are to be pitied
themselves, for they know not love,
which is the grand purifier Of the ma
ture of man and of society. Robert
South spoke of it thus:
This is the great engine and istru-
met Of nature, the bond and cement of
society, the spring and spirit of the
universe. 1t is of that active and rest
less nature, that it must of necessity
exert itself; so that it will fasten upon
an inferior, unsuitable object rather
than none at all. The soul may sooner
leave of to subsist than to love; and
like the vine. it withers and dies if ii
has nothing to embrace. Public

to give his best attention TO the lift OF
his outer wheel 80
Another reason for the American
change from left to right was said TO
be the deep SHOWS of New England. IL
was asserted that whenever two slelghs
had to pass both had to pull out OF the
beaten track into the untrodden snow,
and that both drivers would instinc-
lively turn to the right in order that
they might be nearest to the danger
point. Sitting on the right side of the
seat they, were in a position to jump
out and prop up their sleigh should 1t
show "a disposition to upset. In some
Yicinities this predilection for the right
hand was so strong that the horse was
hitched over on the, right side of the
cutter, so that his feet would tramp
down path for the right runner.
It's odd concluded the veteran,
bending his gray head over long cold
glass of something wet, that in the
different provinces of Canada different
customs in the matter prevail, In On
tario and Quebec drivers turn to the
right, and in Nova Scotia and New
Brunswick they turn to the left. In
France the rule of right prevails; in
different parts of Germany and Austria
different habits obtain. You often
have to change from left to right, or
vice versa, when crossing some uninl-
portant frontier Chicago Tribune.
