Liverpool was 3 to 4 down on sales of 20,000 bales at 6.96d. They still continue to buy In spite of high prices. Liverpool cables: "The demand for raw material here Is apparently In satiable.” The demaiid In the South for cotton might he said to he “monumental.” Can It be that we are on the eve of another strenuous bull campaign? Some planters say they will hold the balance of this crop and sell It along with the next Confidence is a plant of slow growth, hut confidence of the renewed kind, such as only “back-sliders” know, Is rapidly developing on the hull side. Our opening of 4 down waB in keep ing with Liverpool. Weather over the belt was generally cold and rainy. If the South stands firm it can not lose. If Theodore will only come back and get on the “bull bandwagon,” all will be, forgiven. Priavte cable from Liverpool said: "Future brokers have deserted the ring for the merchants' tables.” Liverpool gossip' was to the effect that many merchants there will carry their stocks over. All offerings are eagerly snapped up. Atwood Violett wired: “We see the dawn of a great advance in cotton.” The present movement is not specu lative at all, but due entirely to legiti mate influences.

New Orleans, MArch 8.—The Liver pool market furnished the only bit of reassuring news in spot sales of 20,000 to an otherwise absolutely featureless day. This excellent condition failed of reflection, however, In the day’s ses sion, for options lost two points over the natural decline due and closed •(►■points lower than yesterday. Early cables were expressive of higher prices, owning to the prosper ity of the general trade, and one re port that a prominent New York house had quietly liquidated its short con tracts. The session of the local mar ket was about as dull and uninterest ing an affair as could be well imag ined. Even room traders viewed the narrowness of the market with some misgivings and held aloof, although it was generally thought that the ma jority favored a further temporary de cline. Prices were remarkably steady, and this firmness caused some little short covering which somewhat in- ci eased the market’s ability. Owing to the lack of offerings, present mar ket conditions price changes have act ed in the most arbitrary manner. Improvements have occurred where no improvements were due, and de clines have taken plac^ in the face of favorable happenings. The paramount season for such in consistent changes fn values can he traced to the absolute absence of out side interests, lacking which scalping operations have been aggressively pur sued with hardly a thought for the reasonable influence, that a fisas-spot market or weather conditions would necessarily assert were the market differently tempered. We see no change in the attitude that we have had heretofore assumed and expecting a most probable planting season, we still believe that prices will show an upward tendency and would not be surprised to observe an advance prior to the final census report, to he issued on the 20th of the. current month. GIBERT & CLAY. Brown again showed his faith in the market by buying "slugs” of July. Where is the labor to come from to "get the next crop out of the grass?” Port receipts were 14,000 against 22,000 last year. , Country eggs—all fresh—20c doz. Phone 70. W. E. FIELDS.

The clinical thermometer habit baa taken such a bold on many persons that one physician has forbidden his patients to have them on pain of re fusing to treat them if they disobey. Tlie clinical thermometer fiend is a per son who keeps one of these medical registers in the house and the instant that be. more often she, has a head ache, real or imaginary, thrusts the tube under her tongue and takes her temperature. Finding it varying one millionth part of a degree from normal, she thinks she is about to have some deadly illness, packs off to bed and sends for the doctor. Good Temper. Good temper is 1lie most contented, the most comfortable, state of tlie soul; the greatest happiness both for those who possess it and for those who feel Its Influence. With gentleness In his otvu character, comfort in his home and good temper in his wife the earth ly felicity of man is complete.—Anon. • Inmprtnnry. "Father,” said the little boy. "every now and then I hear you talking about somebody who was old enough to know bfetter.” "Yes, my boy.” "What age is that, father?” .And the old gentleman after same thought replied: "My son, there isn’t any such thing. It’8 like the golden age—purely mytho logical.” Knew the Gbftaip.
