‘ SAVANNAH MARKET.
WEEKLY REPORT.
OFFICE OF THE MOipaXG NEWS, t.
Savannah, Oa.. Apiil ~s., l*- y< • )
Gr.NT.ttAL Remains -There was not much do
lne j'n any of tlie markets during last week and
milte a dull and listless feeling prevailed. There
was very favorable weather throughout the
week for shipping, and business should have
been stimulted thereby, but it failed
to improve the demand from the
interior in the least, and what littlo trading
there was in progress was mostly from local
r( . e< Nor was the complexion of any of the
markets changed to speak of, as dealers in the
country seemingly hesitate to place orders to
v esten t ahead, but only to meet actual re
ouiremeuts. In groceries there was a steady
, t lio-ht movement, with very few changes m
values which, as a rule, were In buyers,
favor excepting coffees, which have advanced
fully Vi®lc. per pound. In dry goods there
tvas very little business doing, the trading in
Knring g'oodsJieing about over with. All other
branches were very dull and featureless. Col
lections, as usual, are slow and unsatisfactory.
The money market is less stringent than a
week age, and borrowers are supplied for
moderate wants. Securities continue rather in
active and the market is inclined to slough off
somewhat. Exchange was firmer. The follow
ing review will show the tone and latest quota
tions of the different markets at the closing hour
to-day:
Nkv\( Stoues.— The week opeued up with a
firm feeling in spirits turpentine but the heavy
aims and accumulating stock caused prices
m fall off toward the close. The demand was
„.„.,* active although a fair amount of stock
changed hands, the sales for the week
being fully 2,000 easKs. Rosin -
The market for strained to good
strained was very linn, but the better grades
were easier. There was a pretty fair demand
for the entire week, and the total sales were
fullv 7 HO) barrels. Elsewhere will be found a
eomua’rative statement of receipts and exports
from the first of the month to date and for the
same period last year, showing the stock on
hand ami on shipboard not clenred together
with the official closing quotations:
Cotton— The market during last week was
dull and prices easier and declined )4c. all
around The demand was only a nominal one
but the offering stock was excessively small and
the desirable grades continue very scarce, the
dailv receipts being readily absorbed. The sales
for the week were about 350 bales. The follow
ing are the official closing spot quotations of
the Cotton Exchange:
Middling fair
Good middling JOfS
Middling 10 >4
Low middling
Good ordinary 0% ,

4 p m., as reported by factors, were 37 bags,
ami the sales for the same time 155 bags, leaving

TAUGHT A LESSON.
How a Former Governor Learned of
His Miserable Chlrography.
FYom the Nashville Union.
Gov. Newton Cannon was not remarkably
for his good penmanship.
Rather the reverse.
A gontlouiiui in this city gives an amusing
instants) of this. Many years ago he was 4
farmer boy. He brought a load of pumpkin*
to town one, day, and driving up to thf
court house succeeded in disposing of then]
to Gov. Cannon for 50c. The Governor diq
not have any change with him, and gav<
the boy an order on his wife for the money;
The boy drove over to the Governor*
home, called for Mrs. Cannon and handed
hor the order.
“What is this i” she asked, after examine
iug it closely.
“Why that is an order from Gov, Can
non for 500. for a loadj of pumpkins,” said
he.
“Well, I’ll pay you,” said she, “if you wit
leave your team here at the gate and go auf
present this to the Governor/’
Tlie boy agreed and walked back to th*
court bouse, where he ban*its 1 the order tf
Gov. Cannon.
He took it, turned it slowly around as h*
examined it critically, and then, with a
shako of his bead, looked straight at th(
youngster.
“What is this, young man?” he inquired
“Why, Governor, that Is the order yo
gave me to carry to Mrs. Cannon to get
for my pumpkins.”
“Yus, yes, I see. Pay bearer 60 cents foi
pumpkins,” said the Govornor, as he recogi
nizea the farmer lad. “Well, I have soma
tnonoy now,” aud be proceeded to draw ou|
his purse.
“But. t breerner, I promised to come back
and tell Mrs. Cannon what you said,” wal
the reply.
“You rascal, vouI” was the Governor!*
exclamation, anil the crowd gathered around
broke into a laugh, for they all knew tha(
the Governor hud made frequent 00m plaux|fc|
at being called upon to readhis own writMH
which he thought was very legible 4
