SKWTORK. I
This market has been generally quiet
and dull, with sales of 5,043 bates, spots,
at a rise of of a cent in the price.
Contracts have been active with
large sales, 144,000 bales, with no change
in the price. There have been two spurts
in the market this week. Excepting
these there has been little life in the mar
ket. The causes of this conth med dull
ness are the same as we have given for
several weeks, and, as far as w< can see,
the same causes will continue f >r several
weeks to come.
LIVERPOOL.
This market has been quiet a id dull all
the week with small sales, and, as long as
such good reports of tho gro ring crop
are received from this country, the
will be small, as spinners can c mtinue to
buy as lightly for twelve weel s to come
as they have done this weel, and still
have ten days’ supply at the mi Is.
The stock was counted the l at Thurs
day in this month, as it al
ways is, and found to l e 34,000
bales of American short, but as
all other kinds were found to b the same
amount over, there was no ch: age in the
stock, which is now 960,000 )ales, and
as the amount afloat is now 613 000 hales,
(very much more than ever before, at
this time of the year,) the stocl will very
soon be largely over a millioi of bales,
the largest since the war.

Decatur Co., 6a., June i 2,1874
We have bad cloudy weathe:, but little
rain, for nearly two weeks, an 1 crops of
all kinds are doing as well an i looking
as fine as possible. Cotton is blooming
generally, and very full of yc ang fruit,
and is now np to a full ave rage. No

complaint, last year, three we ks earlier
than this.
Dallas, Texas, June! 3,1874
The cotton planted on ti e Trinity
river is as fine as possible, the best since
the war, and with no disasti r we will
fifty per cent, more tliai last year.
Newnax, Ga., June : 15,1874
The cotton in Coweta and T oup coun
ties is very poor. It will m t average
over six inches in height. 1 he planta
tions are clear of grass and 1 reeds, and
we have had plenty of rain; but I sup
pose the excessive rains in he spring
washed all the richness out o: the land,
as the cotton plant is stunt© l and will
not grow. I do not think we will make
much over half as much as Iasi year; and
asthecropiflboundtobeavei^ small one,
my neighbors and myself aie holding
several hundred bales of cottoi. for a rise
in the price next month.
better prices.
It is the habit with some per ions, when
they feel very dull and poor to tirink
some invigorating spirits, wl Ich makes
T^okpa them feel rich and joj ful for the
time, but as soon as the effe t is gone,
they are worse off than before. The
contract market in New York was
very dull at the close of last week,
but has been “on a drunk' twice this
week. The first cause was, the President
signing the “ao-eaRed" inflation or cur
rency bill. This put the price of spots up
}£, and contracts up 3-£ a cent. This
spree lasted two days and the reaction
came. Then dispatches came from Liv
erpool that, upon a recount of stockjfthe -
American was found to be short between
30,000 and 40,000 bales. This was a good
thing to start the market up on again,
and contracts advanced ^ to % of a cent
This lasted but one day and the reaction
came. When will our Southern friends
learn that these spurts in the market are
gilded baits, covering a dangerous hook,
thrown at their pockets by the sharp
Northern dealer. The price will not
always go down, as we shall have a
reaction when it gets low enough; but
can yon stand another cent’s decline? and
have you sold out all the Juty contracts
you have?
If not, prepare yourselves to take tho
cotton when offered, or to sell it out on
short notice at half a cent below present
prices. Some of our friends say that
cotton is cheap enough at 17 cents for
low middlings, and will go no lower.
Perhaps it may not, but we would not
buy it, or hold it at present prices, with
out we had an insurance company to pro
tect us against the losses which may
come.
new cotton.
Last year there was a bale of new cot
ton received in a week from this time,
and, as there are a plenty of full grown
bolls west of the Mississippi River, we
shall expect new cotton in tbo market
very soon.
GOLD.
There has been a very largo and strong
party in Washington, from the South and
West, exerting themselves to inflate the
currency, and thus raise the premium on
gold. They have failed, and from this
time gold is likely to remain
at about its nominal value, and
gradually settle down, until 5 or
6 per cent, premium is touched next
winter, more especially if the wheat and
cotton crops are large, so there will be a
large surplus to export, with which to
pay our foreign debt.
prospects.
Buy no spot or contract cotton, for a
few weeks, pnd you will not lay awake
nights thinking about your losses.
SHE KISSED HE.
We are indebted to Colonel Absalom
H. Chappell for a pamphlet of seventy-
three pages, full of valuable contribu
tions to the early history of Georgia.
The subjects treated in Part I, are the
Oconee War, Alexander McGillivray,
General Elijah Clark, and Colonel Benja
min Hawkins. Part H, of about one
hundred and forty pages, which is nearly
ready for the press, will discuss Middle
Georgia and the Land Lottery System,
The Pine Mountain, Ring’s Gap and
King’s Trials, The Pine Barren Specula
tion in 1794-5, and the Yazoo Fraud.
The author has outlived the scriptural
term of years allotted to man, and finds
his mind inclining more and more to the
Past, in which he bore an honorable
part. In the “Miscellanies” before us he
aims first of all at exactness in state
ment. He has fortified his clear memory
by the most laborious research among the
dusty records that have been handed
down; and the results are additions to
Geoigia histoiy, whose value is far out of
proportion to the appearance of the lit
tle unbound volume that contains them.
It can be ordered from the publisher,
Thomas Gilbert, of Columbus, or
through any news dealer in the State.

Near “Eagle Rock,” ’neath chestnut shade,
"We sat together—she and I;
Together gazed on beauties round,
Of bird and flower, and earth and sky.
The sun was setting clear and bright,
Gay birds glanced .by from tree to tree,
And, as I gazed on her sweet face,
Her blue eyes shyly turned to me,
My soul was thrill’d with rapturous lore,
As «ep down in her sweet blue eyes,
Beaming from under lashes brown,
' xsaw the love-light fall and rise.
“Kiss me ?” A blush stole o’er her cheek;
And pressed her warm, red, cherry lips.
They gently moved—the kitted tne—love!
‘ sigh came rippling from her lips.
wound my arms around that form,
And prayed that we might never part,
And hdd her in a long embrace—
Eyes beamed to eyes—heart beat to heart.
The silver moon In beauty rose
As hand In hand we homeward strolled,
Oh! God! defend me from such fate,
That her pure love should e’er grow cold.
TIRED.
O for wings, that I might soar
A little way above the floor—
A little way beyond the roar—
A little nearer to the sky!
To the blue hills, lifted high,
Out of all our miseiy.
"Where alone is heard the lark,
Warbling in the infinite arc,
From the downing to the dark.
Where the callow eaglets wink
On the bare and breezy brink.
And slow pinions rise and sink.
Where the dim white breakers beat
Under cloud drifts at our feet,
8inging, singing, low and sweet.
Where we see the glimmering bay
Gravely melting far away,
On the confines of the day.
Where the green larch-fringes sweep
Rocky defiles, still and steep,
Where the tender lichens creep;
Where the gentian blossoms blow,
Set In crystals stars of snow;
Where tho downward torrents flow
To the plains and yellow leas.
Glancing, twinking through the trees,
Pure as from celestial seas.
Where the face of heaven has smiled,
Aye on freedom, sweet and wild,
Aye on beauty, undeflled.
Where no sound of human speech,
And no human passions reach;
Where the angels sit and teach.
Where no troublous foot has trod;
Where is Impressed on the sod
Only hand and heart of God!

CHATER VI—Continued.
After mature consideration, a plan of
operations was arranged.
It being determined that Dick Travis
should not be permitted to escape this
time for any incompleteness of the effort
to capture him, it was agreed that three
or four days should be devoted to the
pursuit of the outlaw, if necessary.
The. company was divided into four
parties, each under the command of an
experienced leader, Maltby taking charge
of one.
These parties were to separate and in
close within their movements a certain
area of territory, within which the opera
tions of the outlaw occurred, and his
favorite haunts were known. They
were gradually, cautiously and warily to
approach a central point determined
upon. '
Everything being in readiness, rations
and ammunition in sufficient supply, Jack
Maltby gave the order, the parties sep
arated, and the march was steady pur
sued.
Considerable confidence was felt in
the result. But they were satisfied of
one thing, Dick Travis would hardly allow
himself to be captured alive, and blood
shed would occur. If he had a number of
confederates, as was sometimes thought
severe fight might be anticipated. He
was known to he brave, sagacious and
full of expedients. Bui on his capture,
dead or alive, if it were possible, and
summary vengeance for the robberies
and murders committed upon settlers and
immigrants, the frontiermen were steralA
resolved.
It took the several parties nearly a day
to get into their positions and put into
action their plan of operations. But
when they did so, their work was thor
oughly and skillfully done. Slowly but
sorely they moved upon the converging
lines toward the common rendezvous,
carefully scouring the country for traces
or information of the outlaw. Directions
had been left behind, that should he sud
denly appear in any part of the frontier
or'settlement, notice should at once be
speeded to Maltby and the other parties.
It was not difficult in a region of coun
try so sparsely inhabited to move with
great secrecy, but they nevertheless used
every precaution to prevent notice to the
outlaw, so that he might not have oppor
tunity to anticipate and frustrate their
design. In fact they brought to hear
upon their plan all the cunning, skill and
experience of the border to insure success.
While Maltby and his associates are ex
ecuting their plan for the capture of the
great outlaw, let us glance at the situa
tion elsewhere.
CHAPTER VII.
THE MYSTERIOUS PRESENCE AGAIN.
The threatened illness of Frank Stan
ton was averted, and he determined
to return to the valley. He could no
longer bear his anxiety for the fate of
Minnie, and his love now asserted its
sway in overpowering force. The
thoughts of her death, of her cruel treat
ment, of her loss to him, almost drove 12c.
him to distraction. Dr. Armstrong,
thinking his danger over, did not inter
pose ahy objection. He perhaps thought
that eager and active employment of his
mind was better than idle fretting and
inaction.
So Stanton set out on his journey. His
thoughts reverted to the tragic events of
the last few weeks, of his own sufferings,
of the teirrble misfortunes of the More
land family, and other occurrences that
had distracted tho frontier,such as the des
perate outrages charged upon the noto
rious outlaw. What would be the final
result of all this puzzled him sorely, and,
as his own condition had made him to
great extent unobservant of
tho general situation, he was
keenly solicitous to become thorough
ly acquainted and identified with
the fortunes of his friends. No nobler,
truer, braver heart heat anywhere than in
the bosom of young Stanton. To die
for or with his friends would to him be
happiness indeed, and he felt a keen pang
of regret that by reason of his wounding
he had heen incapacitated from partici
pating in the effort to rescue her, to him
the dearest of all earthy objects.
On reaching the valley his joy was un
speakable on hearing what haa transpired
since his departure, and that Minnie had
not only been recaptured, but had been
safely returned.
A moment after, however, he was des
tined to some disappointment. He, of
course, asked for Minnie, his heart beat
ing wildly with ungovernable emotion. It
seemed to him that a sight of her would
be bliss, such as mortal never enjoyed.
But he was answered that Minnie was
not in the valley, having left the day be
fore.
The reason of her departure was ex
plained.
The work of reconstructing the cabin
had been accomplished in two or three
days by the co-operative labor of twenty
or thirty men. That is, it was in condi
tion to be occupied.
Major Moreland determined to take
possession and remain, unless the Indian
manifestations became alarming.
But it was thought advisable to place
Min'4e for a short time in more com-
fortwSle quarters," as her health was by no
means strong on account of the physical
endurance and mental trials through
which she had passed.
Some fifteen or twenty miles away
there was a neighborhood, hardly a vil
lage, of five or six families—not more
than a half mile apart. Here resided
special friends of the Morelands, and
here it was concluded to send Minnie for
rest and comfortable surroundings.
On arrival at the house of tho family,
whose hospitality Minnie was to en-
joy, but whom, on account
of the intimate relations existing between
these border friends, it had not been
thought necessary to notify, it was ascer
tained that they had gone to a distant
lart of the frontier on a short visit, leav-
ng only a servant woman in charge of
the premises. While this was some dis
appointment, as it deprived Minnie of
their company, it was a disappointment
only to that extent. So she took up her
temporary home at the Maxwell’s,and the
servant mentioned was so exceedingly
kind and attentive that her time was
passed most profitably to her health and
the restoration of her mental condition to
its wonted freedom from excitement and

nervousness.
The day succeeding her arrival she
strolled out of the house for a short walk
keeping, however, in sight of it. Her
thoughts turned to other days and the
friends of other days. Among them was
outlined the splendid form of the gallant
iroung Stanton, and the maiden dreamed
ong of him, who was now in the valley
ana would on the morrow set out to fine
her. This she knew not, of course,
though she had 'learned joyfully of his
probable recovery.
Thus busied with her thoughts and
fancies, she heard neither the singing of
the birds or the sighing of the breeze.
But her reveries were startled by some
thing out of the natural order, and yet
something she had once before encount
ered. Though awed, she was not
alarmed. She could not believe that in
jury to her was contemplated.
She was still in sight of the house, and
was just turning about to go back, when
that same unnatural voice, that sounded
over the Indian camp in which she was
captive, issued from the surrounding
space—it was difficult to tell whence—
aying slowly, distinctly:
“Maiden, fei
fear not. To-night you must
hear me. Keep the light burning.
