the reasons for the inferiority Of the

The London Illustrated Sporting snd

New Orleans, La., Oct. 16.-An un- expected change for the better took place in the cotton market today. The improvement being attributed to a ca ble from Liverpool to the effect that the Russian crop, which last year amounted to 675,000 bales of 800 pounds each, had been destroyed by frost. It is probable that a certain percentage of the Russian crop has been injured in the event of their hav- ing had a killing frost, but it is not likely, as todays cable would infer, that the whole of the crop had been destroyed. It was during the present week that the American cotton belt was visited by heavy frosts and

 For many centuries the city of Nor ton, was liable to provide annually twenty-four herring pies for the royal kitchen. Blomefield in his History of Norfolk" referring to this quaint service, prints letter from the house hold officers of Charles l., making divers just exceptions" to the quality of the pies which had been forwarded by the city sherin,s.
 The main exceptions read as follows: First, you do not send them accord ing to your tenure of the first new her rings that are taken.
 "Secondly, you do not cause them tC be well baked in good and strons; pastye, as they ought to be, that the may endure the carriage the better.
 Thirdly, whereas you should by your tenure bake in these pastyes six score herrings at the least, being the great hundredth, which doth require five to be put into every pye at the least, we find but flower herrings to be in divers of them.
 "Fourthly, the number of pyes which you sent at this tyne we find to be fewer than have been sent heretofore, and divers of them much broken.

Brouqht a Blush to Her Cheek

There was a story told of one of the worlds great vocalists singing as a young girl at a private house. She was overwhelmed with praise. By and by. says the London News, she came and sat by an elderly lady, who congratu lated her on the way she had sang, but ventured to offer one or two suggcs tions. The young singer treated the hints with scorn and afterward asked the hostess who 'the old lady" was who had dared to give her suggestions, "Oh, that was Mime. Goldschmidt," re- piled the lady. "And who is Mime Goldschmidt?" was the next impatieH: query. well, she's better known as Jenny Lind," said the hostess.

The Gospel oe Good Cheer.

People loved Robert Louis Steven son not because he was an admira ble writer, but because he was cheerful consumptive. He was a sufferer who for many years increased the gayety of life. Genius alone can do this OF large scale, but everybody can do it on little one. Our safest guide is the realization of hard truth-that we are not privileged to share our trou- bles with other people, If we could make up our minds to spare oul friends all details of i'll health, of mon- ey losses, of domestic annoyances, of alterations. of committee work, of grievances, proyocations and anxieties, we should sin less against the worlds good humor It may not be given US to add to the treasury of mirth, but there is considerable merit in not rob- ping it.-Agnes Repplier in Harper's Magazine.
