The stock market to-day, in consequence of
the withdrawal of a majority of brokers from
the street for the day. and the fact that to-day
is holiday in London, was the dullest which has
been seen for many weeks. As usual of late
dealings were rather feverish, but fluctuations
were extremely narrow and unimportant. A
firmer tone, however, was imported to dealings.
There was a vigorous attack upon Lackawanna
in the first half hour, and its price wus broken
Iy. percent., but its lowest price was then
touched, aud at. the close most of the loss hod
been recovered. Manhattan, after opening off
2L, per cent, at 112kj. the lowest price yet
reached, recovered to 113 >4 There was abso
lutely no other feature, dealings possessing the
usual professional character. The opening was
heavy at the decline, extending to % per cent.,
though Missouri Pacific was a marked exception
at an advance of L per cent. Further slight de
clines were mode in the early dealings, while
laekawauna was conspicuously weak. A full
recovery followed ill the general list, and though
considerable heaviness was aDeipvard displayed
in the last half hour, a more decidedly firm tone
was developed, aud the close, though dull, was
firm at about the lx*t figures reached. The
total business aggregated only 04,000 shares, of
which Lockawauna contributed 12.350. Almost
the entire active iist is higher at advances rang
ing up to % per cent., but Manhattan is off 1
per cent. The following were the closing quota

Green & Co.'s report on cotton futures savs:
‘lt has been a small and uneventful market,
with the tone on the whole rather easy and rates
off some 3® 4 points, closing about steady.
Liverpool favored buyers somewhat, and the
crop report of the National Exchange was of a
very favorable character—influences that pre
vented any great amount of strength. There
was, however, quite little covering on the old
crop and gome fair buying of late months by the
general trade, the bull clique still remaining ap
parently indifferent."

Chicago, July 9. —Wheat market opened a
little easier at for August, and during the
first hour was very dull, scarcely any trading
being done. August declined to 72\£c. New
York clearances were posted at 350,000 bushels,
and rumors liegan flying about to the effect that
the visible supply statement next week would
show another large decrease, considerably over
2,000,000 bushels. In the same line we re state
ments that the Agricultural Department had re
ported showing more or less in certain wheat
districts .This combination of talk induced con
siderable buying in a local way, and advanced
the price of August up to %e higher.
Rumors were confirmed when a later rovern
vnent crop report was received, and Dy noon
August had picked up tx> 72v6c, and felt quite
bullish. This feeling continued until the close,
tho last quotation for August being 73c. Corn
opened steady at 86c, and gradually improved
in spite of the general dullness which prevailed
in all the pits during the early part of the
session. It was benefited by early advances in
wheat, but the governments reports showing an
increased area of 500.0(A) acres, or 2 percent,
more than iri IKBO, acted as a sort of damper to
much higher prices. August went up %e. how
ever, without very much trouble, closing at 30
(&36%c. Oats were a little off in price to-day.
August opened *4c under yesterday s closing,
and sales were from 25%c early to shortly
before the close. Previsions summer, with
trading on a better scale. More buyers ap
j><*art**r f*>r short ribs and lard. Hogs were
higher, and offerings of the product less dis
posed to soil. Shipping demand has improved,
and the outlook was regarded as better for the
maintenance of present prices. August lard
ojiened at $6 45. sold to $6 52Uj, and closed firm.
August ribs opened at $7 sold at $7 70, and
closed at top figures, an advance of on
both lurd and ribs. Pork remained dull.

SMI TH-WESTMORELAND.
Tho True Inwardness of the Whole
Trouble as Told by the Former.
Tho Athens Banner-Watchman has in
terviewed Col. Smith again on the dueling
sensation. Following is tui extract:
“What is the history of your trouble with
Dr. Westmoreland?” wo asked.
“I will recount it, hut not for publica
tion, as the press all over tho country will
be ringing chestnut bells on me. For the
first five years after my camp was estab
lished no complaints were ever heard or
made of the place. Gov. Colquitt, in liis
message to the Legislature, and John W.
Nelms, Principal Keejier of the Georgia
Penitentiary, m his report to the Governor,
said that the Oglethorpe branch camp was
the best managed of any camp in tho
State of Georgia or in the United
States. Then came Gov. McDaniel, who
after being in office fur more than a year
made bold to say that the Oglethorpe branch
penitentiary was managed in the most ad
mirable manner. I afterward became a
member of tho State Senate, and while in
the discharge of my duty cast some votes
which greatly displeased certain gentlemen
who are supposed to have had Dl\ West
moreland appointed. From tins time it
seemed to have been the doctor’s programme
to give my camp a bad name. He became
angered ever since his attack on me foiled.
Gov. McDaniel saw through the game, and
dismissed and pronounced untrue the
charge against me, and then restated that
tho management of my camp was the
best. Mr. Slmbrick has always refused
to lend bis aid to the scheme, and has not
hesitated to denounce any slander on this
camp. He knows more about it than anv
other penitentiary olHcial, and is a fair and
square man. To vindicate my character
and prove there was nothing wrong about
my camp, it became my unpleasant duty to
publish certain certificates snowing that Dr.
Westmoreland was not in a condition to be
a propur judge at the time he saw iny con
victs, but on the other hand was very drunk.
These certificates, together with other in
formation in regard to the condition and
treatment of my convicts, not only vindi
cated myself, hut angered Dr. Westmore
land, as it afterwards transpired. He
was very slow about showing it, however.
It was nine months or more after this arti
cle had been published that Dr. Westmore
land’s friend, <’. H. Williams, called on me
with a polite request that I step outside the
limits of the State that ho might deliver to
me a communication from Dr. Westmore
land. lam u plain farmer and not ac
customed to affairs of honor, but remember
hearing something about the code duello
giving a party twice as long to answer n hos
tile communication as the offended party
took to notice the matter, and so informed
Mr. Williams. Of course ho could
not deny this fact. I was very busy with
my farm at that time, and have been ever
silica. But I rested catty, for I still have
about a year to frame my answer. But.then
vou see that Buncey matter and the meet
ing of the Legislature bobtied up, and so the
rules of the code were violated with the
hope of attracting the attention of the
public from the real issue at stake. This
is tho true inwardness of the whole
matter. Dr. Westmoreland’s course is en
tirely without the pale of the code. The
programme is to goad me into raging or
do something that will counteract the ef
fects of the Buncey letter and give my en
emies a weapon to use against myself and
the other convict lessees. But I hardly
think I will furnish it just atthistime. Dr.
Westmoreland and Buncey must go down in
history hand in hand. They ure inseparable
as the Siamese twins. I cannot permit
Buncey to be ignored or forgotten.”
“Do you object to stating what you will
do in regard to Dr. Westmorelands card? 1 ’
we asked.
“It will be attended to at the proper time
and in a manner I feel assured will bo en
tirely satisfactory to my friends and to tho
good people of the State. 1 am busy just
now laying by my crop, and this must first
be attended to. In the meantime I do not
think that my reputation will suffer much
at the hands of Buncey and Dr. Westmore
land. Everything will come out all right.”
We found and left Col. Smith as serene as
a May morning. ll< • was not the least dis
turbed by Dr. Westmoreland’s card,
for Col. Smith knows that ho is
entrenched by tho confidence and re
s]*et of every one who knows him,
and as to his reputation for courage, it has
long been established. What course he will
take in answer to Dr. Westmorland’s de
nunciation we are not prepared to say, but
his friends well know that at the proper
time he will be heard from, and in a manner
to satisfactorily vindicate himself. Col.
Smith is a roof, clear headed, brave man,
who is too shrewd to lie led off by passion
from wliut he considers the right course.
Diamonds, Gold and Silver.
I am looking forward shortly to be able
to move bark to my old quarters. It is now
my aim to reduce stock or to close it out as
far as possible, to make tho moving a less
troublesome matter. To do this I have de
termined uion making sacrifices. This is
not a device to draw trade, but a positive
fact. I offer sterling silverware for wed
ding presents, watches, diamonds, etc., at
actual Mew York wholesale prices.
