To-day was another dull and listless day for most stocks, but loadings were marked by in creased strength and advances were recorded in several specialties. Trading was almost purely professional, and fluctuations, except in a few stocks, were confined to exceedingly narrow limits. St. Paul and Duluth was agaim the most conspicuous stock by reason of its unusual strength, and a further large advance was re corded on the circulation of the same stories which have done duty heretofore. Tennessee coal and iron was also strong. There was some buying in Western Union, but the remainder, especially coal stocks, were dull and featureless. The opening was moderately Ann, most stocks showing slight advances, all hough several were unchanged and a few a shade lower. The mar ket was dull throughout the day except for a few spurts. There was a jeavy tone early, and slight declines were established, but before the end of the first hour the entire list liecame strong. The market was firm thereafter until the close.

Market closed null. Manchester. May 25. —The Guardian says; “Business is worse. Not only is the advance needed by producers quite infeasible, but the tendency is otherwise. There has been no in crease in the demand even at Friday’s lowest rates. Producers are being ground between a dwindling trade here and a firm cotton market In Liverpool. Spinners are doubtless getting worsted. The supply of yarns is abundant. Some spinners will continue working full time even at a cost of increasing their stocks. Others are ceasing, and during the next fortnight the production of yarn will be much lessened. Affairs in the manufacturing department are in much better condition than in the spinning de partment, and orders are booked to extend further forward. Most of the margins are more remunerative, and the demand, though poor, is better than in the spinning sections. Still manufacturers are perplexed about em ployment for their machinery and are lessening production. Yarns are dull" all round. There are few inquiries for export. Prices offered are a little below Friday's lowest rates. Cloth sales are exceedingly light. The India trade has not improved. For China there is a small business at Friday’s lowest rates. Best printing cloths and heavy goods are weaker.” New York, May 25, noon.—Cotton opened firm; middling uplands 11 l-16c, middling Or leans ll%c: sales 495 bales.

Green & Co.’s renort on cotton futures says: “After considerable animation and frequent fluctuations, during which August sold down to 11 01c, the market finally closed within a frac tion of last evening and apparently firm. The movement appeared to be largely of a specula tive battle only, in which the longs on one side were disposed to take profits ana sell out with a natural weakening tendency, combatted by Southern aud European syndicates who took the supply whenever it commenced to act weighty.” Galveston, May 25.—Cotton firm; middling 10 9-16 c; net receipts 49 bales, gross 49; sales 28 bales; stock 7,029 bales; exports coastwise 577 bales.

Chicago, May 25.—A repetition of yesterday’s closing scene, when short sellers went home exultant at having broken through the defense the clique bad around the 88c peg for June wheat, was avoided this morning. More brokers were placed iti the pit, and in order to raid to day the crowd would have had to part with a great deal more wheat. The clique brokers had unlimited orders to buy June wheat, and they took all the crowd would sell them. They allowed a few parties to settle their June con tracts at 88<j, but only those were allowed to settle who had it sold to them lower down, so that the settlement brought a little profit for the clique. Gossip said that $2,000,000 in cur rency was stalled from Cincinnati last night. June wheat opened %c higher at 88c, and re mained about that figure throughout the day, closing at 88%0. T'he wheat indication was changed from June to July option this morning, but June still remaius the more active option. July also opened %c higher at 80%e, hung steady around 86%@56%e during the day, and closed at 86%c. Trading in June and July was only moderate during the latter part of the session. July coni opened a shade firmer at 40%c, but prospects of large receipts made it weaker, and it sold down In the first hour to 89%c. I Alter in the day largo purchaaea firmed It up, and July closed at 40®4&%c. Ik developed shortly after the corn market opened that the clique brokers were in the pit. and were holding up June in or der to get rid of the balance of the clique's pur chases of that month, which were inode over a month ago. and which it was the general belief had all been marketed. June corn opened at 38%c and closed at the same figure. July ribs opened 5e lower at $7 20. ami sold up during the morning to $7 30, and remained at that figure until the close. July lard opened at $6 75 and closed at $6 77%. Both commodities were dull and featureless. The following were the cash quotations: Flour unchanged and firm.

From Note* and Queries. A corres]x>ndent sends what he believes to be a correct translation of the sentence pro nounced by Pontius Pilate on Christ. He says that this curious document was discov ortxi in A. D. 1280 in the City of Aquill in the Kingdom of Naples, in the course of a search made for the discovery of Roman antiquities, and it remained there until it was found by the Commissaries of Art in the French army of Italy. Up to the time of the campaign in Southern Ityily it was preserved in the sacristy of the Carthusians, near Naples, where it was kept in a box of ebony. Since then the relic has been kept in the Chapelo Caserta. The Carthusians obtained, by pe tition, leave that the nlate might be kept by them as an acknowledgment of the sacrifice which they had made tor the French army. The French translation was made literally by members of the Commission of Art. Denon had a fac-simile of the plate en graved, which on the sale of his cabinet was bought by Lord Howard for 2.800f.: “Sen tence pronounced by Pont ius Pilate, Intend antof Lower Galilee, that Josvs of Nnza reth shall suffer death by the cross. In the seventeenth year of the reign of the Em peror Tiberius, and on the 25th day of March In the most holy City of Jerusalem, during the Pontificate of Annas and Caiaphas. Pontius Pilate, Intendant of the province of Lower Galilee, sitting in judgment in the presidential chair of the Praetor, sentences Jesvs of Nazareth to death on a cross between two robbers, as the numerous testimonials of tho people prove that: (1) Jesvs is a misleader. (2) Ho has excited the people to sedition. (3) He is an enemy to the ljiw. (4) He calls himself the Sou of God. (5) He calls himself falsely the King of Israel. He went to the temple fol lowed by a multitude carrying palms in their hands. It likewise orders the first centurion, Qutrilius Cornelius, to bring him to the place of execution, and forbids all persons, rich or poor, to prevent the execu tion of Jesvs. “The witnesses who have signed the exe cution against Jesvs are: (1) Daniel llobani. (2) John Zorobabel. (3) Raphael Robani, a Pharisee. (41 Capet. Finally the orders that the said Jesvs be taken out of Jerusa lem through the gate of Toumea.” THUMB WEDDING RINGS. Something Not Generally Known Anent the Bright Nuptial Band. From Notes aiul Queries. The “ring of rings”—the wedding ring— is now worn on tho fourth digit of the hand, perhaps from a notion that was held by the “leeches” of bygone dnys that an artery went from it straight to the heart, but our maternal ancestors, less romantic, it would seem, than their fair descendants, often wore that charmed circlet ou the thumb. Although tho ring was always placed upon the fourth linger in church, it was not al ways allowed to remain there. English ladies were wont to transfer the golden fet ter to their thumbs, a custom jierhujis origi nated by some high-born bride, whose Huger, like that of Suckling’s heroine, Was so small the ring Would not stay on which they did bring. It was too wide a peek. At Stanford Court, Worcestershire, may be seen the portraits of five ladies of the Sal way family, who lived in the days of Queen Bess, all of whom carried their wedding rings upon their thumbs. Buffer bears wit ness to this practice in his lines: Others were for abolishing That tool of matrimony, a ring. With which the unsanctifled bridegroom Is married only to a thumb. - —i. ~i'L . j_L ...
