Green & Co.'s report on cotton futures says:
“The feature of the cotton market to-day wos
in the issue of Bradsfreet's estimate of the crop.
This, at 6,480.000 bales, is in excess of most of
Krevious rumors, and the effe t was more or
!ss depressing, w ith a shading on value amount
ing t015@19 points on selling out of Tong' con
tracts. The offering, however, was not as
heavy as might have been expected, and a small
recovery to<ik place, with the final tone steady.
Liverpool also gave way, but private advices in
dicated that the estimate issued to-day had a
steadier influence upon Manchester, as showing
a comparatively moderate supply against pre
dicted consumptive wants. \ery little 'short'
selling took place to-day.''

Chicago, Dec. 3.—There was a more settled
feeling in grains at the opening of the Exchauge
to-day. first sales being at exactly yesterday's
closing prices, or 85%e. for May wheat. But it
was strong nevertheless, and within ten minutes
got up to 85%c. Corn was also inclined to be
bullish, the market opening at 54%c. for .May,
selling up to 544-40., theu weakening to 54%c.,
recovering later and going up to 54%c January
pork opened at sl4 62%. and advanced 10c.
within as many minutes. At the eud of the first
hour the country contingent was ahead. After
the heavy realizing of yesterday light weight
local traders concluded that the market was
sale and acted on that ides. Heavy traders, as
a general rule, were holding back and taking no
active part. A flood of early traders from the
country sent wheat up to 86%(gj.86%c. for May.
There was some disposition on the part of both
local and the country crowd to do less business
after this time, and May wheat settled down into
a steady market arouua 86e.. and May com did
likewise at 56c. Provisions were the most quiet
deal of all, but strength in corn pinned January
pork up to sl4 77%, but it too became steady
with other markets, and was firm at sl4 70.
The indications were that comparatively little
trading would be dons until after Monday's visi
ble supply statement had been made public.
After -May reached 86%c. it weakened back to
about 85%c, and after became very steady.
Corn held its own and was a steady market all
day. Reports of greater damage than has been
previously reported are brought up from South
west Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska by parties
recently traveling through those sections.
They say hogs are also a short crop. The effect
is to Inspire the belief that prices all around are
going to be higher.

How Mr. and Mrs. Sharp Received the
News.
From the jVe’o York Tribune.
Mr. Clark performed his task of deliver
ing the news to Jucob Sharp of the setting
aside the verdict in his case in a few min
utes, and on returning told what had hap
pened in words something like these:
“I found Mr. sharp lying on an invalid’s
couch, in his dressing-gown and slippers.
He seemed to bo in a doze, and I did not
disturb him, but turning to Mrs. Sharp. I
said: ‘I have the best of news for you.’ I
then read her the telegram which Bourke
Cochran sent my brother from Albany.
Mrs. Sharp became all of a tremor imme
diately. She was so overjoyed that she
could not speak, but broke down and cried
for sheer gladness. At last she said •
“‘Oh, Mr. Clark, I am so happy! But
there have been so many rumors that I can
scarcely believe the news is true. Let me
see the telegram i’
“I put it in her hands and she tr.ed to
read it through her tears. Then she went
over to her husband, who was only half
awake and was beginning to be aware of
something unusual. She knelt down beside
him and told him what had happened.
What did he do? He made no demonstra
tion. He listened with stolidity and apathy.
He is either a most callous man or his long
confinement has preyed disastrously on his
mind.”

PAVEMENTS.
This Pavement has been thor
oughly tested in actual ser
vice and is found to possess
the following points of su
periority:
Ist. Cheaper than stone blocks equally well
laid.
2d. Durability: the company guarantees it
for a period of years.
3d Almost noiseless under traffic.
41 li. The cleanest (lavement made.
sth. A perfect sanitary pavement. Being im
pervious to water and flltn, it cannot exhale in
fectious gases.
6th. Easily and perfectly repaired when qpened
to lay pipes, etc.
7th. Saves wear and tear of horses and
vehicles.
Bth. Being smoother, less power is required to
haid over it than any other pavement.
9th. It enhances the value of abutting prop
erty more than any other pavement.
10th. It is therefore, all things considered, the
l>est and most economical pavement that can lie
laid on any street, whether the traffic is light or
heavy.
