Monroe News: Last Thursday John
Blasingame, the young son of C. P. Bla>iu
game, went seining. As he left home he
picked up from about the premises a dis
carded pair of his old shoes, which bad done
their full service in the furrow, and took
them along to use in the water. Arrived at
the creek, his last preparation to enter the
water was to slip on his old shoes. As he
did so he felt what he thought was the prick
of a tack or a briar three times In succession.
Drawing bis foot out he saw clinging
to his second toe a medium-size black spider,
with that certain mark of poison on it, a
red center in its back. The bite was con
sidered a trifling matter, and, at the in
stan e of his companions, John placed
some damp tobacco on the bitten places and
soon went on into the water. In about an
hour he was fearfully sick, and Marsh
Marable, who was along, decided he ought
to have immediate medical attention, aud
drove him as hurriedly as p< issible Into town.
But they were at Jack’s creek, some
miles distant, aud by the time John
was gotten to town the poison had been in
his system about three hours. He was
taken to the office of Drs. Poore & George,
who administered the most powerful anti
dotes known to the profession. As soon as
possible the young fellow was driven to his
home, but in a dangerous condition. Sev
eral times between Thursday and Tuesday
his life seemed to hang by a thread, but, to
the great relief of ail, his physicians pulled
him through the crisis and he is now well
apparently.

from tip to tip of the wings, is 3 feet 9
inches from hoau to foot, measures 4 feet 6
Inches in girth, and stands on a column 1

senting the “liberty cap.” The body
of bird and capital are carvel
from a huge block of pine, while
each wing is of a single piece of the same
wood, firmly mortisad and riveted into tiie
body, so the wholo bird is of only three
pieces of timber. Tne pose of the eagle is
exceedingly majestic and natural, while
the carving is most skillfully executed,
each detail of plumage, pinions, claw ,

ural color. Capt. Carle has been at work
on tho eagle at odd times for tne last four
years.

ing Friday: “Capt. Smythe of the revenue

if another report reaches his errs on this
score, he will station guard j iu the post
office and will himself direct the handling
of the mail, or else recommend that the
postofHce be closed altogether. Secret orders
are reported to have reached tho McLane
which are said to be very positive. Capt.
Smythe, it Is learned, informed several
citizens to-day that if any disturbance
occurred in the place he would order
a detail of the ‘blue jackets’
ashore, with instructions to the officer
in command to tiro unless the streots wore
cleared instantly. He declares that inas
much as the state refuses to grant protec
tion to the United States anil to private in
terests iu this place, he will lake it upon
himself to maintain order and answer to
the state afterward. The McLane moved
into the dock this morning; but resumed
her former anchorage to-night. A force of
men on the McLane is ready to laud at a
moment’s notice, should any occasion arise.

Tbe stock market to-day was quiet, but de
veloped a marked strong tone in its regular list,
with the result at the olosing of a majority of
stocks fractionally higher than last evening.
Operations were more than usual of late for
professional account, and those operators were
iuclined to wait for the bank statement. Tbe
bank statement showed a gain to the surplus
reserve of over sl, 00,000, and, as indicated by
the growing ease of money yesterday, the banks
are in a strouger position than for some weeks.
These caused a lively covering of shorts, and in
the last half hour of business prices advanced
sharply, especially iu a tew of tbe leading
shares, which have been sold short too largely
of late. The opening was rather heavy under
sales of the professional element, but the regu
lar list immediately developed a firm tone, not
withstanding the fact that there was great ex
citement in Sugar Refineries, there being a
s.iarp aud material decline in its price from 904
last evening to 87. The stock was very feverish
throughout, but participated in a later revival
and recovered almost all of its early loss. Lead
was inclined to follow, but its movements, as
well as its animation, wore on a much smaller
scale. Tbe Distillers’ trust, however, was a
marked exception, being advanced on tbe re
ported absorption of opposition concerns and
promised increase in the rate of dividends, as
to the regular list, however, the only stocks
showing any important movement was St. Haul,
which steadily appreciated, even when the rest
of the list sagged. A few specialties showed
wide Uuctuatious, but the rest of the list were
traded in over a narrow range. Tbe close was
active a id strong at about the best prices of tbe
day. Most stocks show slight gains for the day.

The Huns cotton review says: “Futures
were very dull in the absence of advices from
the Liverpool market, which is closed. The
slow progress of the silver bill and good ac
counts from the growing crop left bulls without
effective support, and there was an irregular
decline, August options giving way most. There
is nothing of special interest in the weekly de
tails of crop reports from the south. They are
pretty uniformly favorable, ana if there be no
serious drawback receipts of new cotton In Au
gust will exceed all precedent. Cotton on spot
was dull and weak."

Chicago, May 24.—A good business was trans
acted in wheat to-day, and trading was more
general. Operators soon after the opening be
came impressed with the idea that someone
was selling wheat very freely and loading up
the crovwi, and this started a rather general
desire to realize. The feeling was unsettled.
Opening sales for July were from Mi® 4c under
the closing yesterday, held steady for awhile,
and then declined to a point or two below out
side prices, fluctuated some, and closed about
114 c lower than yesterday. May closed about
2)40 lower, August closed about 2)gc, and Sep
tember 24c lower than yesterday. In corn
there was a continuation of the weak feeling
manifested during the greater part of yester
day’s session, and a still further decline was re
corded in all futures. Trading was of moderate
volume and inaiuly local. The market opened
at about the closing yesterday, and under free
selling gradually fell of 3s®)jc, ruled steady,
and closed lower than yesterday. Oats
were fairly active, but-weaker aud lower, due to
large receipts. May receded 2)ac from yester
day's close, and closed at about inside figures
More deferred futures sympathized with May
and receded 5)4®5)4c, closing at about bottom
figures. There was very little doing in pork.
Opening sales were at 15c advance, but prices
receded 7)i®loc again at 12:30, and the market
closed quiet. There was only a moderate trade
in lard, with a steady feeling. Prices ruled
about 2fsc higher, closing higher. The short
rib market attracted very little attention. Prices
exhibited very little change.
