The stock market to-day was moderately
active, though speculat ion was narrow as usual
of laic, a few stocks monopolizing all interest as
well as business. It was somewhat feverish and
weak, however, throughout. The general feel
ing in the morning was less bearish and London
was buyer of its specialties, and supporting or
ders appeared in most of the specialties. A
number of adverse influences were soon brought
to bear, however. The one that did the most
harm was that the dividend on the Richmond
and West Point preferred would be passed, and
this, supplemented by je-rsistent attacks upon
the stock, made it a specially weak spot of the
market. The Chicago party were very active
in bringing about the decline, but old bears and
room I raders were prominent in hammering the
iist. Western Union was sold down on rumors
of trouble in the Anglo-Western Union cable
pool, and sharp drives were made against
Union Pacific, Reading and Lackawanna. The
only strong stock on the list was Canadian
Pacific, which was purchased heavily by for
eigners The opening was firm at advances ex
tending to % percent., but the advantage was
not maintained, prices sagging off slowly, while
business became extremely dull. Richmond
and West Point became the special point of at
tack late in the day, when the market showed
much more animation, and the decline became
more general. There was some support given

Green & Co.’s report on cotton futures says:
“It has been a light day in cotton certificates
and without features of a stirring character.
Some moderate tiuctnation took place, with tile
general turn, however, in buyer's favor, the
weakness arising as much as anything through
want of orders. Liverpool did not show quite
so much strength as had been hoped for, and
that, with the run of port receipts keeping up to
a pretty full volume, probably added to the
tameness prevailing. After gaining a point or
two at the opening, the rate dropped 6:u 7 points
from the highest, and closed ratner tame.''

selling. May corn dropped to 55%<&.55%c; May
wheat to 85c. Then came good Russian war
news, and the market firmed up. May wheat
went to 85%c, but the break in corn shortly
after noon took May back to 54%c, and in
sympathy with wheat up to 55tec, but heavy
selling sent it back to 55c. Pork sympathized
w ith other markets on the way down, but did
not respond so quickly to advances. War re

CITIZEN TRAIN IN JOURNALISM.
He Has Become Associate Editor of a
New Brunswick Paper. (
From the New York Snn.
The last issue of the Weekly Record of
Sussex, Kings county, New Brunswick, has
the name of George Francis Train as “asso
ciate editor” at the head of its columns.
Its leading article is a live-column report,
in the best Trainesque style, of a meeting
there addressed L>y the citizen, in which it is
stated that A. .S, While, M. I’. i\, “by
whose invitation the lecturer was present,"
acted as chairman, and, in introducing “the
distinguished orator,” said, among other
things:
“Ladies and gentlemen, if ever you and 1
as citizens of Sussex had cause for unbounded
pride, it is on this occasion, when so dis
tinguished a gentleman, so finished an
orator, so great a poet, so profound a phi
losopher, as the lecturer of the evening has
so generously vouchsafed to honor us, as he
does to-night by ins presence here. By his
transcendent and multilateral ability he
has achieved for himself a fame which is
world wide. In all countries and in every
clime the name of George Francis Train is
a household word. In the busy marts of
commerce; in the centres of culture and re
finement; iu the desert where the Arab
pitches Ills tent, in the dark continent
where the armor-hided hippotamus wallows
on the river’s marge; on llie tropic plains of
India where the tiger crouches in the
jungle; among the mountains of the snow
capped Himalayas; in the flowery land
where the almond-eyed pig-tailed China
man eats rice with chopsticks; in Australia,
where jump the rabbit and kangaroo; iu
those barbarian isles where the natives greet
one another by affectionately rubbing noses;
everywhere throughout the whole licit of
the earth’s circumference, the name of
George Francis Train is established. No
name, not even that of Gladstone, of John
L. Sullivan, or of Buffalo Bill is more known
to fame than that of the distinguished
gentleman seated on the platform at
my side. Even the devil, who is notorious
from qualities far different from those which
characterize the lecturer of to-night, even
though, according to Mr. Train’s opinion,
he is the most powerful factor in American
politics, is not more familiarly known than
the great orator who stands at the apex of
the pyramid of all that is great. And yet
there are not wanting those who, through
envy and malice, would detract from
this great man's greatness. This man
who, as a poet, outranks all poets; who, as
a philosopher, transcends all philosophers;
who, as an orator, bos no peer; who as a
statesman, has no equal. You all, doubt
less, are aware that the same fatuitous
blindness to their lit st interests, which caused
tlie American people to reject Daniel Web
ster from the Presidency, has led them to
neglect the golden opportunity once offered
of inducting Mr. Train into that office.”
Mr. Train stated that before beginning his
lecture he must acknowledge the very
graceful and complimentary introduction
he had received, which, while full of elo
quence and beauty, possessed throughout
the highest of aU attributes, that of truth.
He was indeed never more eloquently or
courteously introduced to an audience, and
he would say that every word of the chair
man’s remarks was strictly true.
Brown Say, Jones, what makes you look so
down in the mouth ?
Jones Reason enough, my dear fellow. Miss
C has been using her most persuasive arts
to induce her father to get her a sealskin sacquc
as a present. I know nothing of her wishes in
this respect, so when the old gentleman, as the
both of us were alone, asked me if I didn't think
tlie purchase of such garments a piece of need
le-.s extravagance, knowing he cannot brook
disagreement, i coincided in his view.
B.—You did, boy?
J.—Yes, and he has told her my opinion and
has concluded not to invest.
B.—How does she take it?
J —Oh, she lias soured on me completely, and
intimates that unless her father gels the saeque,
I may expect oue of another kind.— button
