free buying for tong account, which with pur

Green & Co.'s report on cotton futures says:
“Trading in c )tton contracts was moderate, the
market being light throughout and generally
easy. About the only noticeable feature was
the absence of a direct demand and some in
crease tn the run of selling orders, showing no
alarm on tne short side worthy of considera
tion. Liverpool was tame, the run of receipts
very liberal and Southern markets ejrsier, and
notwithstanding some relief is Mt in the money
market, the force of the present feeling is
against the bull side and movements for a rise
outain no support. There was a decline of 3(&4
points, with possibly a slightly steadier feeling
at the close, but business was very dull. Spots
were freely offered at firmer rates.”

Chicago, Sept 22.—The wheat crowd to day
were very much exercised at the opening, lie
cause of spring wheat grading low. This fact,
in addition to the heavy covering of shorts late
yesterday, made a very stiff opening. As the
day advanced the crowd pot nervous. So dpers
were dlspos-d to lie bearish, but whenever the
market got down alitt letbere was stieb good buy
ing of the cash article that they covered sjieedily.
Favorable cables were somewhat counteracted
by a total 1 tek of clearances at New York. The
aggregate receipts at twelve points were 527,0)
bushels and shipments 272,600 bushels. The
market showed signs of a decline about the
middle of the morning session After the open
big ut closing prices n't the noon hour some local
houses Iwgan to purchase Dco-mlier quite free
ly, when there was another effort with many to
cover shorts. New Yoresrs were also known to
le buyers. When December reached..' c
thorn were a lot of stop orders. Tne bullisit
feeling kept prices moving up for half an hoar,
when there waa a slight react 100, making clos
ings altout %c under the )-st |Kifnt touelteil for
the session. < lorn was easier, in sympathy with
weakness at New York, due to the belief that
ab tut 4,0011,11*1 bushel i were now ®u their way
there. Another element was tne large arrivals
here, and it waa rumored that the railroads
were considering further reduction of corn
freights from Missouri river points. When
wheat firmed up, corn also went up a little,
shorta covering on any Indication of strength.

Circular from Hubbard, Price & Cos.
(Through John S. Ernest.)
New York. Sept. 22.—1 t being now impossi
ble to ship cotton to Liverpool in time for deliv
ery in Septe nher contracts, the Southern mar
k-*ts set mto lx* adjusting t'mmselvcs to a basis
of Ojtcber delivery, and consequently to-day
presented rather a ragge.l appearance. The
Greek merchants here have received some of
the Sentembe. deliveries and still hold a few
unfilled Septembers, together with a large line
of October contract' In addition there is quite
a number of Odours held for Russian account
Under these circumstances w© feel justiJed in
advising our friends to leave October contracts
alone, as from the present outlook the stock of
cotton here will not be added to unless the
Southern markets decline sharply The a*t inn
of the Treasury Department has failed to have
any noticeable effect upon cotton, and the. room
tra lers still continue very l>earish in their views
and are gradually creating a short interest,
which will he felt should the larger interests
conclude present prices low enough for a crop
of about 0,700,000. So far, however, they have
made no sign, believing in waiting until the
financed outlook is more clearly outlined. After
t he close the feeling was easier.

270 FEET UNDER GROUND.
Some Savannah Boys Have a Good
Time in Luray Cave.
Rapid Ann, Va., Sept. 18.— I send a
few lines that Savannah friends may hear
something of the descent of :!7<> feet into tho
bowels of the earth, of several Savannah
school boj’s. We cnyaed the Blue Ridge
Mountains at “Thornton’• Gap,” in convey
ances, and were de.ighied with the appear
ance of the towering peaks of the moun
tains, reaching above the white floating
clouds; most of us never having witnessed
such a sight before; every turn of th > “ser
pentine pike” brought another grand view
of magnificent scenery, until the hoys in
wild delight made the mountains echo,
and re-echo with their shouts
of appreciation. Even the horses
seemed to partake of our enthusiasm, and
carried us down the mountain at, a fearful
speed, reaching the Lur.iy caverns at 5 p.
m. YYe at once commenced the de-centinto
the caverns. Fortunately, we were alone,
with only Capt. Taliaferro and Prof. Bain,
so we had every opportunity of dwelling
upon the mighty wonders we saw.
1 think t.m imitation freaks of the stalne
tite foi illation are not so wonderful, al
though in many instances so remarkable as
to make a lasting impression upon our
youthful minds. Only think of a dozen
boys waltzing on a smooth floor of marble
formation 270 feet l) dow the surface of the
earth! Tiie ceiling of this grand under
ground “liall-room'’ frescoed with a stalac
titic formation, is grander than anything
we have ever read of concerning King Sol
omon’s temple.
We w ere struck with the fact that it takes
120 veil's, to form one square
inch of this formation. Again we were
astonished to behold u mighty column that
is said by scientists to have fallen four thou
sand years ago. The grand and mighty
dra]iery hanging a hundred feet above,
nlone paid us tenfold for our trip. The
wonderful chimes produced by our guide,
upon the staittclic pipes, just to the left of
the organ, surpass id anything we heard in
the way of music. But ni vpm is unqual to
the task of describin'; aiilwe saw.

We have sold our stock of these goods down closer this
season than we have for years past, and being determined not
to carry any over to next year, Yve offer to close them out
AT MANUFACTURERS’ COST.

CBOWNED WITH TH GREATEST SUCCESS OF TBE Afill
THE OLD RELIABLE
Charter Oak Portable Ranges and Cooking Stores,
WITH THEIR YVONDERFUL IMPROVEMENT,
THE WIRE GAUZE OVEN DOOR,
TTNIVERSALLY CONCEDED to ho tho greatest Improvement over attached to a Cooking
Stove or Range. By tho admission of fresh air into th* oven In the form of small jets, it
purifies that which is otherwise vitiated, at the same time saving tho juice which is the nourish
ment of meats without the necessity of BASTING, and a considerable saving of time, labor and
weight sufficient to hi for an oraioarr Cooking Stove several times over. One of the features of
the CHARTER OAKS, with the WIRE OAUZE DOOR, is that of BROILING STEAKS in the
OVEN ami not over the coals, thus avoiding the loss of juice, being burnt or tainted by smoke.
Steaks broiled in a CHARTER OAK, with the WIRE GAUZE DOOR, becomes tender, juicy and
delicious All those who have used the old reliable CHARTER OAKS know them to be a first
class article, and will readily understand the theory of this truly v iderful improvement, they
will herald their success with unstinted praise and delight. Tnet- a* no mechanical ingenuity
required to understand how to operate the CHARTER OAK RANGES or STOVES, they are very
simple in construction, so niiicn so a child could work them. It Is the only Range having one
damper that will heat water in the reservoir and bake well at the same time. We have so much
confidence hi the CHATF.R OAKS, having had one in operation in our store, that we are prepared
to substantiate everything claimed for them. The public are cordially invited to call and have
the theory of the WIRE GAUZE OVEN DOOR fully explained, or send for descriptive circular to
