Thu San's cotton review says: ’’Cotton
futures opened without decided change and
very dull, gaiuod strength, especially for toe
next crop, which attract'd more attention. The
rapl t reaction of tue visible supply was aa ele
ment of strength, as well a* bad planting
v.-ea her at the south, where it has turned quite
cold. S*td . the late planting season is n- t nec
essarily an uiitavoraole one. Southern markets
were partially dearer, hut quiet. Over 14,090
bales were cleared from New Orleans to Liver

and caused an eariy advance, but tbe a ivanca
was only temporary. The predictions were for
cold weather. Stormy weather was reported in
the northwest and lak** region, and rain in the
Ohio valley and the southwest. In corn there
was nothin* new of consequence in this market,
which ruled comparatively du 1 all day. Tae
undertone was on the whole firmer, there belli*
apparently more disposition to buy on the part
of many operators, the weather being: quite un
satisfactory, and the situation a little more un
certain. The market opened at yesterday’s
closing prices, was dull ana neglected, changing:
scarcely an %c, and final quotations were a
shade higher than yesterday. Oats were stead},
with a moderate volume of trade. There were
a good many orders to sell May at 22Wc, but
orders to buy were so limited that commission
houses were unable to execute them. There
was mo :orate business in June and July, and
also more doing in August, but price cii.-uures
were limited to %c. Pork attracted very little
attention. Fluctuations were confined within a
range of sc, and closing figures exhibited a
slight advance. In lard nothing of consequence
was doing. Buyers and sellers were indifferent
about tradiug. and changes in pri es were
slight, rather favoring latter. In ribs a very
steady feeling prevailed, and there were n >
marked changes to note. The bulk of business
was iu May aud July deliveries at about Fri
day’s prices.

Asa result of the annual charity ball
given during the past few years the.society
has accumulated funds sufficient to add
another story to its building, the need of
which has long been felt. While in the
hands of the contractors it became known
to the managers that a handsome legacy
bail been left the society, a small portion of
which was advanced, which enabled theftt
to entirely renovate the home. This hand
s imo legacy was given by Mr. Gilmer and
Mrs. Lawton, as trustees of Mrs. Porter’s
estate, with the permission of the family,
in grat iful acknowledgment of this gen
erous gift, the home will hereafter be known
as “The Louisa Porter Horae for the Friend
less. ”
While the repairs were going on at the
home the usual distributions were some
what interfered with. There havo been
distributed, however, to the city poor,
$515 in money, 255 quarts each of grits amt
meal, 259 cooked meals at the door, u.Slol'i
yards of cloth, 255 cords of wood and 90
pairs of shoes.
Tho managers again thank the Central
railroad for free transportation of woo 1,
Solomons & Cos. for drugs, Dr. Charlton for
medical attention and Mr. Luke Carson for
use of carriage, when needed.
Hoping the public will Unsufficiently inter
ested m oar work to call at the “home” and
t ius encourage us, we leave the year that
has passed and ptm-m on to the duties of the
one upon which we na re Just entere 1, trust
