NEW YORK. December 31.-The
Stock Exchange community saw the
expiration OF the year 1907 without
regret, but with some attempt at
cheerful expectation for the coming
year. The cheerful sentiment showed
signs of being forced ito degree, and
not maintained throughout the session.
The principal incentive to the early
advance in prices came from abroad;
where there was quite widespread a q
feeling of encouragement over tina
prospect for quick improvement on the
banking situation after the turn of the
year. There was a pronounced recess
sion in the private discount rate In
that the Bank of England official rate
would come down on Thursday.

 MT. Mallory is general agent and sales manager for two very extensive manufacturers of plug tobacco for Southern States, with six salesmen under him in this state alone Of course, incidentally he sold our mer- chants, while paying social call. As one merchant said: "I dare say the only ones he missed were the ones he didn't have time to call on.
 Hix styles himself Manufacturers Agent" As usual he henored cur town with the first call on any of his trade since last August, as hc has spent the time since that visiting manufacturers of plug tobacco and cigars. As Hix calls it he has been of to college, and covered a distance of between eight and nine thousand miles, picking out a line and making contracts suitable for this and his other territory.
 We predict for Mr. Mallory a bright and prosperous business, and we know he will get his share from Forrest City merchants. Mir Mallory left here Friday on the fast train to spend Sun day with his family at the Moody Hotel, Hot Springs, and returned Tuesday evening OH his way ta Jones' borO
