CITY TOPICS.
The races are eagerly looked for.
Murray & Mullen have some very
fine horses for sale.
Mr. H. B. Harrison was elected 3d
Lieutenant Cos. B last night, vice M.
P. Poster promoted.
The great race horse, Sand Hill, has
a very luxuriously furnished bed
chamber. It cost only about SSOO to
lit up the inside alone.
Yesterday the streets were crowded
with vehicles loaded with household
goods. From what we could learn,
over one hundred families moved yes
terday and quite a number will change
quarters to-day.
Friday morning about ten o’clock, a
lady in attempting to descend the steps
at tho boat landing accidentally stum
bled and fell head foremost down to the
ground, a distance of about fifteen feet.
We did not learn the result of the ac
cident, but suppose it must have seri
ously injured her.
Five thousand two hundred and sev
enty-four bales of cotton were received
for six days ending yesterday. Prices
have recovered a good deal, but likely
they will not fall more than %c. or %c.
more. Farmers are not holding back
this year Jiko last, expecting higher
prices, and it is a good idea, for expe
rience has shown the folly of this.
Georgia 'Minstrels.
Last night we had a delightful sere
nade from the quartette of the above
irUnstrels, and we must say it was real
ly line. ' The tenor sings splendidly,
and he has a very sweet voice. This
Minstrel Club will play at Girardeys
Opera House on the Bth and 9th insts..
and no doubt they will have full
houses, as they are excellent perform
ers.

Effects of Dissipation Counteracted.
—Alcoholic excesses cannot be too
earrestly deprecated, both for their de
structive effects upon the constitution
and their pernicious influence upon
nian’s-general welfare. At the same
time there is little probability that he
will cease to indulge in them until, the
end of time. Common humanity would
therefore seem to dictate the sugges
tion of the most efficient means of
counteracting their effects. There is
not among medicated stimulants one
so admirably calculated to counteract
the physical consequences of hard
drinking as Hostetler’s Stomach Bit
ters, which relieve the nausea and
headache produced by it, steady the
trembling nerves, and yield that un
feverish repose which is the best re
cuperant of health shaken by excess.
The bilious symptoms caused by dissi
pation are promptly relieved by the
Bitters, which are also an excellent
remedy for all disorders affecting the
stomach, bowels, liver and urinary
organs, to which it imparts unwonted
regularity and tone.

Travellers always experience great
trouble and frequently suffer from
diarrhoea, on account of unavoidable
disturbance of the digestive organs in
duced by changes of food and water.
Invalids especially suffer from this, and
not unfrequently lives are lost from
change of water alone. All these
troubles might easily be avoided by a
judicious use of the celebrated Home
Stomach Bitters. sep2B-d2taw^c

The Course of Cotton.
[New York Bulletin.]
There has been a few moderate fluc
tuations on this market in a specula
tive way, through local influences, but
the cost of bona fide cotton has been
gradually shrinking throughout the
entire period covered by our review.
No new features of a positive charac
ter were developed that we could iearn
of, a comparatively limited consump
tive demand at home and abroad, free
offerings on spot and to arrive of the
new growth, favorable accounts from
nearly the entire South in regard to
weather, condition of the plant and
progress of picking, all contributing
to depress the market; especially as
few, if any, offsetting “points” could
be known, The present statistical posi
tion is, to be sure, considered a good
one by many, but has little or no effect,
owing in part, no dcubt, to the fact
that the speculative element is much
smaller than a year ago and less effici
ently organized, and the general feel
ing most decidedly “bearish” in charac
ter. Certain possibilities of danger to
the crop not yet passed prevent a more
rapid and serious break in values at
present, but a considerable portion of
the trade seem to be well satisfied to
remain “short” at ruling rates, notwith
standing the decline already recorded,
and 12)£c. per pound has become a
common prediction on tho “floor,” with
some few of the extremists naming a
much lower figure.
On “spots” business has been of a
slow, uncertain character, and confined
almost exclusively to small, irregular
parcels required for immediate
home account. A few unimportant
parcels were taken by exporters to fill
engaged freight room, and one or two
of the same class of operators were for
a short time feeling their way cautious
ly on a small offering of desirable
stock. They found it impossible, how
ever, to come to any satisfactory ar
rangement, even with the downward
tendency of values and the general
lenient temper of sellers, as “short
notices ” hence, parcels to arrive and
supplies at the Southern ports were all
available on a much more profitable
margin. The purchases by “spinners ’
have been simply a matter of absolute
and urgent necessity, the majority re
ceiving supplies direct and all working
in a very cautious manner. Anticipations
of lower cost and the unpromising con
dition of the goods market have con
tributed to this end, especially since
the immense “drive” on prints, etc.,
made by one of the leading dry goods
houses of this city. Holders of stock
have offered with freedom and at times
shown a slight desire to press matters,
both on parcels from store and new
cotton from wharf, and prices have fur
ther receded %a%c. per pound, the
shrinkage most decided on the high
grades. The offerings to arrive were
ample and terms easy.
For future delivery there has, among
a great many operators, been a con
stant expectation of a decline, with,
however, a disappointment so far as
any serious break was concerned, and
frequently quite a little surface
strength shown. The storms on the
Gulf coast and the probability of their
having extended inland, with a little
cold weather at the same time coupled
with hints of frost, gave a basis of
strength during the early part of the
week, and caused some of the more
timid shorts to cover. After danger
from the above source was found to be
groundless, the position began to
weaken, and had a combined ef
fort been made, the break would
have been immediate and serious.
Finding the “bears” indisposed to pur
sue their advantage, however, the op
posing interest were enabled to carry
out certain manipulations, principally
of October contracts, which it is claimed
will save ponsiderable loss to those
who had operated in anticipation of a
September “corner,” a matter now con
sidered as not likely to amount to any
thing moae than a slight “twist” at the
best. Toward the close of the week
the tone became more generally tame,
under the large receipts at
“short” notices were becoming more
plenty, with less inclination shown to
stop them, and appearances through
out seemed to favor the buyer. In
short, nearly everybody was “bearish”
to a greater or less extent, but no one
willing to take the lead in selling the
market off.
The Grain Trade.
[Now York Tribune, September 27.]
The heavy and depressed feeling that
distinguished our wheat market this
day week has since been even more
marked; the unfavorable news from
Europe, the failure of a leading house
in the trade, and great difficulty in
placing commercial sterling have been
the chief causes of the rapid decline
and very unsettled and unsatisfactory
market. The failure above alluded to
came at a time when the receipts are
increasing, and as a considerable por
tion of the wheat to arrive this and
next month had been purchased by the
suspended firm, it must now be sold for
their account, which may be regarded
as unfortunate for the trade. At the
time these purchases were made for the
future (the latter part of July and the
first half of August) circumstances
seemed to warrant the conclusion
that the crop or wheat in Great
Britain would fall at least 30 to
35 per cent, below an average; 25 per
cent, below an average in France and
Hungary, and the winter wheat in this
country at the same time did not
promise over half a crop, so that these
large purchases for the future ap
peared to be fully warranted, though
they have proved to be premature, and
have resulted, we are sorry to 3ay, very
unfavorably to the operators. The de
cline here on spring has been 6a7c. per
bushel, and on winter 4aßc. per bushel,
the latter so unsettled and unsalable
that values cannot be correctly given.
The ranges in the prices of soft, spring
and winter is very wide, and in the
present unsettled state of the market
it is extremely difficult to give the dis
tant reader any correct idea of the
market. There is an absence of any
speculative feeling, and no demand for
future delivery. Now, it seems to us
that this great depression is un
warranted, as the causes which
stimulated the market so greatly
in July and August are still ap
parent, and the actual deficiency in the
wheat crop of the world is now an es
tablished fact, which, at that time, was
chiefly conjectural. There has been so
much money lost by shippers to Eu
rope the past ten or fifteen years, with
the margin generally against them,
that we have few firms left that can
now be induced to engage in that kind
of business, although they may enter
tain a very good opinion of the distant
future, hence we have but compara
tively very few buyers in market, and
receivers are compelled to store it
freely. The movement in wheat at the
Northwest continues very light, far be
low that of the corresponding time last
year, aDd prices continue to decline.
The quantity now in sight is very mod
erate, much below that of the corre-5
ponding time last season. From the
West we learn that sound new Winter
wheat in many places cannot be |bad
for feed, and this is true to some ex
tent of the Southern States. From Min
nesota we learn that our recent esti
mate of the injury to the wheat ex
posed to the recent storm was about
correct, and the supply of No. 1 Minne
sota spring will fall greatly below the
estimates made about the middle of
August. At Chicago the new wheat
arriving inspects rather better than
early in the month, but the quantity is
far below the average for the past ten
years. Our advices from Great Britain
are interesting, confirming, as they do,
our previous advices ; the movement
of wheat in Eastern Europe is very
limited, the decline in Great Britain and
France exerting the same influence
there as in the United States. A3 yet
there is no accumulation of stock at
Taganrog, Marianopoli, Odessa, or at
Theodosia and Sulina, hence the ship
ments for the United Kingdom in Octo
ber were expected to be light —though
the shipments thence since the 25th of
August have been large. The new
spring wheat arriving liere is general
ly of good color and the berry plumb,
but it is too soft for present use.
The exports of the past week have
been 514,912 bushels against 761,294
bushels the corresponding week last
year, and from the coast they are only
654,867 bushels. This certainly is a,
very limited movement, less than half
our early estimate. To-day the market
opened very quiet but steady for old
spring, which is in reduced supply; now
spring is more plenty, and is unsalea
ble; soft old spring is very dull and
values uncertain. New winter is dull,
and if unsound can not be sold here
to any extent. The market closes
steady for old and fairly active, but new
is unsaleable and easier. Shippers hold
off. We notice more inquiry for mil
ling. Soft winter is lower and quiet;
the sales are 80,000 bushels at slal.ll
for ungraded lowa and Minnesota,
$1.20 for No. 2 Chicago spring, old, to
$1.18a1.19>2 for new; sllO l’or No. 3

waukee, in store for old; $1.29 for No. 1
Milwaukee; $1.33 for No. 1 Minnesota,
reported; $1a1.16 for red Western; $1.28
a 1.30 for amber do; $1.44 for white
Michigan, $1.20 for Northwestern in
store. Barley is quiet and lower; sales
of 2,000 bushels, car lots, at $1 for two
to four rowed mixed, and $1.02 for
"strained four-rowed. Barley malt is
dull and heavy ; sales of 3,000 bushels
Canada West at $1.52%, sixty days, and
3,500 bush, do., do., at $1.55 longer time.
Oats are irregular; new much the
same ; old are lower and offered more
freely ; unsound are plenty and selling
at 30 a 43c for mixed ; the sales are
67,000 bush, new Ohio mixed at 43a45c;
white at 49a52c; htate mixed at 46 for
good on track, and white at 50a53%c,
and 50 for old Western mixed. Rye is
easier and in fair demand; the sales
8,000 bush. Western at 89c, afloat. Corn
is again lower and fairly active at*the
concession; the demand largely for ex
port; the sales are 167,000 bush, damp
and unsound at 65a66%c; Western
mixed at 67a68%c for steamer, and 68%
a7oc for sail; do. white at 74c; do. yel
low at 70c.
A private letter from Honolulu re

cursor of the death of a royal person
age. This sign has preceded the death
of bis three predecessors, and the King
is visibly affected by the superstition.

Symptoms of Catarrh.— Dull, heavy
headache, obstruction of the nasal pass
ages, discharges falling from the head into
the throat, sometimes profuse, watery and
acrid, at others, thick, tenacious, mucous,
purulent, bloody and putrid; the eyes are
weak, watery and inflamed; there is ring
ing in the ears, deafness, hacking or cough
ing to clear the throat, expectoration of
offen-ive matter, together with scabs from
ulcers; the voice is changed and has a na
sal twang, the breath is offensive, smell
and taste are impaired; there is a sensa
tion of diaciness, mental depression, hack
ing cough and general debility. Only a few
of tho above named symptoms are, how
ever, likely to be present in any one case.
There is no disease more common than Ca
tarrh, and none less understood by physi
cians.
Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy is, beyond
all comparison, the best preparation for
Catarrh ever discovered. Under the influ
ence of its mild, soothing and healing prop
erties, the disease soon yields. The Golden
Medical Discovery should be taken to cor
rect the blood, which is always at fault, and
to act specifically upon the diseased glands
and lining membraue of the nose. The Ca
tarrh Remedy should be applied warm with
Dr. Pierce’s Nasal Douche—the only instru
ment by which fluids can be perfectly in
jected to all the passages and chambers of
the nose from which discharges proceed.
These medicines are sold by Druggists.

6 O’CLOCK P. M : y |)ctober 1,1875. )
t
Rema|(|n
Trade for the past w was rather dis
couraging, and did notif ?iow the expected
increase which was looked for.
One cause of this proiv j’y is due to the
fact that farmers gent*. *y, aro very busy
picking cotton, and af '.hey intend being
very economical the oloidng season, they
will not purchase homj, Supplies until ab
solutely compelled to q.*s.Jo, and even then
their purchases wiH-be (D hparatively small.
As was foreshadowed tly in the season,
trade has been and wili&f utinue to be on a
subs'antial basis, and i:S -s probably better
that the volume of busijL-ss is smaller. It
is now done on the easLwstem, and farm
ers next year will be i ni better condition
to enjoy home luxuriesMan since the war.
From every source andatom every person
coming from the Nortiw jnd West, we hear
of nothing but hard armes. Thousands
out of employment, nn factories idle and
starvation staring hu.|i reds of thousands
in the face; and this st £ of things is more
alarming, in view of tUMr pproaching Win
ter when business, to fCfesrtain extent, will
be at a stand-still. Re# estate is decreas
ing all over that couif-iy, and a state of
affairs as bad, if not ' rse than those of
1837 is feared by many 5 These facts prove
conclusively that the ai; -cultural portions
of this country are tin E sal support of the
people, and that they fee the only inde
pendent States in the ajiion. It is there
fore our own fault if \§, with all evident
advantages, allow haroj-ines to be known.
As was the case last wiSk, seed grain con
tinues to bo in demand®!
The lacal markets Cm a small business
early in the week, but ursday there was
a very line business- i fact, the best of
the season. . ?
The meat market r gains firm, and
stocks are light. Thor, will not be an ad
vance, for the reason ■ hat packing will
soon commence in the ’ l ist, and immedi
ately prices will decline [md therefore mer
chants are afraid to 1 ap large stocks on
hand, and there is on I enough to supply
the demand.
The grain market h; been somewhat
excited, and although veral depressing
tendencies have occurs: 1 in the Western
markets, grain has ad 3 need here. Corn
has been very firm. Wi .at remains firm.
Oats firm and unchang .l.
In the dry goods magf t trade has been
very fair, and the new i'.ii stocks are being
rapidly diminished. Probably this market,
more than any other, vjDtid experience the
benefits of this prosp'.f us situation. As
will be seen by ; io article else
where, New York mer, lants are surprised
and elated at the unenj ctod and sudden
rush of businoss, whiclj-Iney now estimate
as better by far than t’ajen last year. The
New York Herald has a ; J lterview with Mr.
Libbey, of A. T. Steward fe Cos. That gen
tleman said: There hie >een, I should say,
without reference to fig. ires, fully ten per
cent, reduction in dome ,ic woolen goods,
but none of any accomr ?>n foreign impor
tations. Bome has be.-;; caused from the
feature of smuggling that demoralizes
prices at all times. Th '< auction business
is another feature of [he market worth
noting. Foreign goods iot into the hands
of auctioneers and fror. Lem into the mar
ket at a price lower tij L the cost of im
portation sometimes, *id, consequently,
the prices of imported [goods are forced
downward somewhat. Tho demand for
foreign productions i; iuains firm, and
there are no new fabric:/: In the market. We
have tho same articles is last year, with
variations in blending ; ad different weav
ings. There is a reduc' on of from ten to
fifteen per cent, on donn Mic cotton goods.
These are the figures:

Among the causes of * its falling off you
must place the redact! p in the price of

Mr. Libby expressed \\ opinion that the
reductions shown in th > iiolesalo market
would not be felt to th :: one extent in the
retail market. Person J mietimes are dis
posed to “break” on thu uling prices, with
a view of giving trade tart. Mr. Libby
took a very hopeful vie | of the future, de
picts a very contervatio feeling abroad,
a disposition on the p!• .; of the country
merchants to buy only 1 at they are able
to realize on quickly ai £ to ask but short
credits. The immense •£ lolesale house of
