Manchester, Dee. 28.—The Guardian says: “The market was firm, and prices unaltered. The demand was poor, and business trilling. The inquiry from Eastern markets has fallen off decidedly, and as producers, with cheaply bought raw material, are tiecoming raver, mer chants find a difficulty in placing even the re duced orders they have in baud. Manufacturers complain strongly of the narrowness of margins and toe impossibility of seeuri.ig new contracts at prices sufficieut io cover the recent advance in yarns. As the latter are very linn, manufac turers' prospects are not bright. Meanwhile the strong appearance of cotton is encouraging spiuuers to hold oiit for extreme rates, even where not compelled by their jioMt on regard ing coul racta. Little has been done in exjiort yarns departments. Spinners refuse all offers tielow Friday’s full rates. The demand is light all round. Heavy cloths are quiet, but prices are slightly hardening.” New York, Dec. 2% noon.—Cotton dull: mid dling uplands 10916 c, middling Orleans 1011 liic; sales 30 ti des.

Green & Co.’s renortoo cotton futures savs: “ i lie market has been pretty active, and the ordinary monotony was bruxen tty sharp and unexpected fluctuations, but in the end there was uo evidence that new interests hud come, and most of the dealing was local. At the out set matters looked strong, wit h 3®4 points gain secured, when a rumor was spread that the German Emperor had suddenly uied. This sent the market off on a perpendicular drop of about 12 points, when a contradiction of the rumor drought a prompt rauotion, and at the close rat.-s stood just about the same as last evening, with the tone steady, early sellers having mani fested considerable anxiety to get back sales on the short line.

Tilden, Cleveland and Hill-Gossip About their. creonal Peculiarities. Of the twenty-eight gentlemen who have beeuGovernorsef Nexv York only three have been bachelors, says an Albany letter to the New York Graphic. In all the first ninety seven years of her existence, the state in deed barrcii out the liaohelor element from her executive chair entirely. Indeed, the records show that down to a very !ate tints the preference of the people ran not only to married men, but in some instances to men rather overly married, tlov. Marey was married t wice and Gov. Yates three times. Samuel J. Tilden was the lb st of the bachelor brood that had the audacity to ventme on the duties of Governor. But when a break into the chief magis tracy by bachetordom was once made, it bad and still continued to have a steady preference. Three bachelors have occupied the gubernatorial mansion since Sam Tilden began bis reform career. Two of these have been elected to the presi dency, and there is a gaping chasin appar ently wai iug hi that office tor the third in course ol time. Tiiat one did not g t Into the presidential chair does not break t his record in favor of bachelor Governors. Martin Van llureu, the only other President, who had been Governor of New York, was a w idower, so that the strange fact remains that no New York Governor with n wife has ever been elected President of the UmW States, besides the other fact that no New York man, Governor or otherwise, ever entered upon the presidency with a wife mon his hands, both Millard Fillmore and Chester A. Arthur being widowers when they became preddents. This may pre vent Gov. Hill gening married; it may throw a false and factitious glamour over bacholordom, but these are the facts. Samuel J. Tilden was the most gallant of the bachelor governors. The old gentleman xvas a great admirer of the ladies. He had a fancy especially for blooming young girls. There was aiw’ays an all' of some early dis appointment about him. If good Mrs. Pel ton, his sister, could have had her say she would have told a beautiful story of why he was a bachelor, blit the Governor kept her silent. Often the anxiety to tell it would show itself in Mrs. Pelton. She would dgli most sig uflcautly at times, when teal's, otherwise unaccounted for, would appear in the old gentleman's eyes. But the secret xvas profoundly kept. The love episodes with the Bt. Louis belle and with the New Orleans lady, to whom the Governor left SIOO,OOO, never completely swept away the cherished sentimentalism of his early life. At nli his receptions Gov. Tilden took a great comfort in talking with pretty young sprigs of girls. He made a dozen propos. Is to young visitors at these gatherings which might have held good in a court of law if the young ladies hail chosen to sue. He was a great hau 1 for horseback ruling, but he wound rein lip ins steed at auy moment to pay courtly deference to some lovely woman who might bow to fcim. Tue great Governor, indeed, hud a heart fitted for softer scenes than those which entered most into his life. Gov. Tilden was the first Governor to occupy the house which is now the official residence of the Governors. He rented it for SIO,OOO and a few months after ho left i! the thrifty owner sold it entire to the State for $45,000. It was the first expensive guliernatorial residence that Governors here had had. Gov. Hoffman had rooms at the old hotel known ax Con gress hail. Gov. IJix had an ordinary brown-stone across the way from the capitol, anil some ancient Govi rnors e,n Ixiarded. It remained for the first bachelor Governor to introduce palatial housekeeping on a gorgeous scale mto the domestic life of the chief magistrate, and the present bachelor Governor has even expanded on that. Grover Cleveland was the next bachelor Governor, and be carried his bachelor habit s right into the palatial mansion, just as he would have gone to a bachelor friend’s apart meets without brushing bis feet at the door or putting out hi half smoked cigar. There was a very prevalent bachelor air during his time at tUh mansion, until towards the close, when a delicate influence grew into his life. The nation as represented by the Democratic committee of no. ification ap pointed 10 inform him of Ins nomination as I’reident in ISB4, scented the influence, when, it discovered near him, as he received the message of the eomrnittee, un Inr a gre-.t Kink of dowers on the mantelpiece, ho i harming Jliss Folsom and her mother, jt was Ham Randall himself who, at that gathering, in reply to tome comment said: •'We’re going to elect this time. We are going to put that charming girl into the White Hone.” And it un> Col. Hooker of Mississippi who immediately responded, “iiandall, you’ve got i,. hat’s just how it is. He’s alter that girl and bo’ll run like a whitehead.” It may be, why not, that M.ss Folsom was a prize In that race as well as the White House. Such things have been. The present bachelor occupant of the Governor's mansion has boon there three year- already and has added to ad em bei i hed the place on a scale of luagnif iceuce which should portend a desire for house-keeping with ail its comforts aud concomitants. Yet there isn't tbe slightest trace of the eiotic senti ment visible any where in David B. Hill’s composition. He snows no truce of te id r sentiment. With troops of pretty girls who come on excursions and look through the executivecnamtier and tike a glance at him no is ill at et e. He hasn’t got used to it even yet. Some Governors would chuck them under the chin, but he won't. He will never boa ki sug maniac like Gen. BUer man. He seldom has any receptions at the mansion where ladies are invited—seldom any. indeed, of any kind. He is all intent upim business —consume ' with a consuming tire to widen agenui ie love episode would coni'*, were it possible to come at all, as r itlier un Interruption. He has u bnrhdor friend housing with him when he is here. Mr. Mtille .of the Board of (Haims, and the iofled dalliance to which the two un bend at any time is a game of billiards.
