COMMERt IA.E, SAVANNAH MARKET. WEEKLY REPORT. OFFICE OF THE MORNING NEWS. I Savannah, Ga., Dec. i, 1887. ( General Remarks—As is usually a feature of the last of the month in trading circles the gen eral market was more or less quiet with quite an absence of personal buyers in the wholesale jobbing trades, and also a scarcity of orders ex cept for the usual holiday goods which are generally moving at this season of the year. In the latter the move ment shows considerable improvement all around, but more particularly in the grocery trade, and the present steady current of busi ness in this branch is expected to continue for several weeks hence. In dry goods, the distri bution at this period of the year is usually small, the demand not starting up in volume until tbs approach of spring, the shipping of light filling in orders, however, continues steady. In all other departments business develop lit tle that is new or interesting; In a jobbing way there has been only light trading, mostly to meet ordinary local wants, with prices steady enough. Values upon most staples are well supported, and the tone of pretty nearly all the markets favors firmness rather than the con trary. The most notable changes have been the heavy advance In bacon, grain and flour, while coffees weakened and declined. The money market is still easy, as is also domestic exchange, while foreign is weak. Collections are slow and the security market stagnant and niore or less nominal. The appended resume of the week’s business will show the tone and latest quotations of the different markets at the close to-day: Naval Stores— The market for spirits tur pentine continued comparatively steady throughout the week. There was a good de mand, but the heavy receipts prevented any ad vance in prices, holders, however, held pretty firmly at 34c. for regulars. The total sales for the week were about 3,800 casks. Rosins to all appearance were dull at un changed prices. The total sales for the week were about 7,800 barrels.; In another col umn will be found a comparative statement of receipts and exports from the beginning of the season to date, and for the same icried last N ear, showing the stocks on hand and on ship- Vioard not cleared, together with the official closing quotations. Rice—The market continues to hold its strong position despite the reports of weakness, and even depression, at the distributing points. Stocks are held with confidence, and buyers, ■when they have orders, meet the current prices without complaint. The demand, however, is slwo, and but few round lots are changing hands. Rough is com ing iii slowly, and from this time forward a gradual steady reduction of stocks in the mills is looked for. The total sales for the w eek were about 1,000 barrels. The fol lowing are the official quotations of the Board of Trade. Small job lots are held at )s@)4e. higher.

Fifteen schooners. A Modern Heroine. From the New Orleans Picayune. There has just been entered as a student! at one of the great, colleges of this city a young lad whose education is to bo paid for by the pnxxneds of the labor of a heroine. The lioj- came from the country, and, when his mother wrote to outer him at college she said in her letter; “At last I can give my boy the blessed privileges of education. The money has been hard earned. 1 earned every nenay of it by working in the cotton fields picking ootton.” Before the war this Spartan mother was a great lady. She owned many slaves and rode in carriages and had a box at the opera, with jewels and fine gowns a plenty. To-day she walks down the cotton fields that once were hrs, and patiently picks oft the fleece, for which she is paid tor picking so much a pound. It is said that embossed ornamentation or embossed gilt lettering on glass as done by hydrofluoric acid can be closely imitated by painting in the design with rather thick damar varnish, water-glass, Canada balsam (thinned with turpentine, if required) or a solution of gum arabic. A little sugar of lead introduced into the vehicle used will produce a grouud-glass effect. Colors may be used and gilding not over the design ft desired. PORTRAITS.
