Tired N shorts covered in Liverpool

market there up 3 to 4 points. Spots
were 2 down on 10,090 Bales.
Early cables said: "The excitement
here is about over. Bulls generally
admit there will be no famine of cot
ton, and market should work lower
unless something happens to growing
crop.”
Planters appear willing to accept 10
cents for the unsold portion of the
crop.
From the preparations now being
made, It seems that the cry of "no
labor” was a little premature.
The government’s estimate of 10,-
160,000 will miss the crop quite a mil
lion bales.
Even Price’s
were too low.

There are no aggressive bulls, but

NEW ORLEANS COTTON LETTER.
(By "Wire to Clark & Co.)
New Orleans, March 15.—The par
tial recovery of the Liverpool* market
in the severe drubbing administered
yesterday was reassuring to those that
held "“ that the action of the foreign
market during the previous day’s ses
sion was extremely difficult nf explan
ation. The trade generally having be
come imbued with the idea that Liver
pool should continue to report exceed
ingly large transactions in Bpot cot
ton are inclined to view the sales of
10,000 bales today aB only fair, where
as such a daily occurrence is about as
much as can be reasonably expected.
Our, own market witnessed a bet
ter opening on the more favorable
news from abroad and shorts found it
to their advantage to cover, which, to
gether with the limited amount of buy
ing caused by the nufavorable weather
conditions existing- throughout the
belt, lent a decided improvement to
the market’s undertone.
Despite the unfavorable weather
.here today a further increased / activ
ity was reported in the’spot situation
and large sales only seemed restricted
on account of the limited and as a
rule undesirable lots displayed.
It appears more than probable that
there is a relative scarcity of the high
er grades and factors who still pos
sess such cotton are comparatively in
different to any decline that the future
positions may exhibit
'The sentimental influence that has
been so potent in afflicting prices
shows no signs of abatement and ring
scalpers take advantage of any good
preparation reports to put forth new
lines of * short cont *acts and accept
moderate profits, allowing the market
to work back ‘ on its own i atural
strength until a new opportunity pre
sents itself for a repetition of similar
tactics.
The forecasts promise weatter of a
mixed character to arrest eflorts to
depress'values for the next few days,
and it is not concerned that Tuesday’s
census report will be entirely to the
liking of the bears, hence for the im
mediate prices at least remain steady.

There is n characteristic glimpse of
Garrick in J. T. Smith’s “Book For a
Rainy Day:” “On a night “when Mr.
Garrick was acting the part of Lear
one of the soldiers who stood on the
stage blubbered like a child. Mr. Gar
rick. vrho was as fond of a compliment
as most men, when the play was over
sent far the mnn to his room and gave
him half a crown. It was the custom
formerly for two soldiers to stand on
the stage during the time of perform
ance. one at either end of the proscen-
lujn.”
< Of Dr. Samuel Johnson in a state of
high indignation Smith offers this pic
ture: “I once saw him follow a sturdy
thief, who had stolen his handkerchief
In Grosvenor square, seize him by th6
collar with both hands and shake him
violently, after which he quickly let
him loose, and then with his open hand
gave him so powerful a smack on the
face that sent him off the pavement
staggering.”
The market was’ easier on selling
of October and December by the
South.”—Freeman.
Port receipts were 14,000 against
21,000 last year. As long as they run
within 50 per cent of laBt year the
crop is sure to reach 11,000,000.
Liverpool experienced “a change of
heart” soon after the opening and
closed quiet, pnly 2 higher.

Spelling: In the Year 1408.
By the following, which is an exact
copy of the first paragraph in the will
of Henry IV. nf England, written In
January, l*i0S, it will be seen that even
kings are not always good spellers:
“In the name of God, Fadir, Son and
Holly Gost, three Persons and one God,
1, Heuery, sinful wr.ecb by the Grace of
God Kyng of England and Frounce,
and Lord of Irland, being w my hole
mynd, mak my testament in manere
and forme that anyth, j Fyrst,. I ‘ be-
quethe to Almighty God my sinful soul,
the wbyche had nevere been worthy of
the man, but thro’ bys mercies and bys
grnse, which iyffe I bavetli myspendyed
thereof I put my self e wholly in his
tgrase and merca*e with ail myn berte.
^Iso, 1 thanke’ my lordis threw the
peple for the trew servyse that they
have dune unto me, and 1 ask them
forgyvnis if 1 hastb mysentreted them
in euy wyse.”
It will also be uoted that Henry, be
sides not being up to the standard as a
speller, had a peculiar habit of spelling
one word in from two to five different
ways.
Artlsta aa Frame Maker*.
The frame for the picture is always
a sore question with the average artist,
as any one of them will confess, and
any frame maker testify to. Most
painters have definite ideas on how
their canvases should be fnmied, but
when it comes to ordering and paying
for them, that is another matter. As
great an artist as Alma-Tadema al
ways designed his own frames, and
not a few New York painters design
and make their own. There is one
Boston artist who began by making his
own frames after bis own designs, and
bis effects were so artistic that several
or his colleagues in that city begged
l^m to make frames for them. He
consented to do this in a few. cases;
until the fame of his work spread
abroad, and as a result he received so
many orders that he set up a frame
making shop of his own.
