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.

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. Cash quotations to-day rul**dus follows: Flour quiet and unchanged.

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.
