Ceizaoo, Uclohor 13.— Judge .1 tiucstiii,. in hi* cbm up t»- d*y to tho Grand Jury, called nt- " ntlini to that portion of the Ilevis- >j statute* of Illinois imposing lines and penalties upon • whoever' contract* lo have or give to himself itimber the option to sell or buy ut i tmura lime any, grain or oilier commodity, stock of any railroad or • •tlior company, orgold, or forestalls he market bv spreading false ru mors to infltienco the prico of cotn- moditles therein, or corners the market, or attempts to do bo, in re- iniiuu to any of such commodi- 'ies. '• # - ' ’ , lu explanation of ths same his ■ninsr said that tho statutedenouuc- ••d threo separate niisdeiKespors— ihe sale “options,” forcstsllitig the market, and cornering tho market. Ail these, cither iu .name or spirif, have bean always interdicted by "iiiiimou iatv, and that of “forestall ing’’ was at a very early day made punishable in Eagjand by the statu tes. The first offense is tlie illegal * t!o of options for future delivery of grain and. other commodities. Tito fact that property is sold to be ilciivered at a future day does not make a Oomraci illegal ; or that it i- not at the time possessed or owu- •ul by the seller; or that the time of its delireVy is left (within fixed limits) optional with buyer or seller, though in tine sense-any such sale is a sale of an optior apparently within the statute. What make* it a gambling contract is ihe intent oT parties that there shall not be a de- livory of tne commodity sold, but a paymtnt of differences by tlie party losing upon the rise or fall of the market. Of this intent the jury a.-o to lie judges, and it may be in ferred directly from the terms of the contract, or indirectly fr.om the co’.inc of dealing of parties. The offense of “forestalling” has been narrowed down by the statutes *<> that it cover* only forestalling the market by “spreading false ru mor*" to influence tlie price of com modities therein. The obvious pur pose of the Legislature in making .tliis provision wls to protect the people and consumers, as Well a* innocent traders, from the damage resulting .from .unnatural and fictiti ous fluctuations oi prices brought about by tlio false suggestions of interested persons. A “corner” the _Judge described as A process of driving' unsuspecting dealers in grains, stocks and the like into a “corral,” and relieving them of their purses. The essence of the offense consists in the party securing a contract for future de livery of some commodity at his option, and then by engrossing the stock of such commodity iu the IWUCS I ,T ’ ) INT, > d. ai down to .a-half dime.

At the Assay office in New York an experiment was recently made with mutilated dollars, halves and quarters whose face vaiue was $100, They were found to weigh soventy- uiglit ounces, and in the process of in-ltiiig half an ounce- was lost.

The Loudon market rate r on tho day tho experiment was inaue" was $1 12 per ounce, and the net result was $76 9L The legal weight ot $100 in coin is 80.375 ounces. The average amount paid by a Wall street firm fora moltllated silver dollar, is seveuty-six cents The decrease in the value ot the. coin by punching varies from lo to 30 per cent. Some of these petty (windier* are not satiffied with one punch, and sometimes two,, and even three holes are found in u cbio of ns small a denomination as a dime. There is a penalty of fine and imprisonment for the mutila tion of coin, bat the Government Iia* not been able to eaten any of tho rogues in the act. Said a - well- known gentleman, in speaking on this subject: - • “This so-called bogus circular ha* succeeded in accomplishing what the Government seemed to have been powerless-to accomplish, for its effect has beeu to stop the circu- latiou of mutilated coin.” . There iui’ta man in Cincinnati to-day who will give you more than seventy-five tents for a dollar with a hole in it, and, bogus or not bogus, the “order” to in full force here, and boycotting mutilated-coin will prob ably be oil the bills until the con temptible off- nse of mutilation has ceasinl. THE COTTON CHOP. Outlook From New Orleanv und Summary of Heceut Dl.pctclm. It is gratifying to learn fromipnr special crop growing dispatches, that the cotton crop of tho State is iu much more promising condition, than it was two weeks ago. It is uol to be n good one, it is true, and will show a lamentaole falling off from last year; but it will be much market, making it impossible for j better than we had any reason to ex- the other party to complete his coir tract but by purchasing of hi* ad versary at his own price, and pay ing in cash' the di fie re nee fixed by such adversary. A* was said of.' another great wrong: “If til’s isnot wrong, then nothing is wrung.’’ Public rumor on the t-trert and in the pies* Justifies me iu saying that these offenses aro rife among u*, and in asking you if evidence to that effect should reach you to make them the subject ut inquiry.

Hi* honor added that it was not the duty of the jnry to seek inqnM-l torinily for evitimice that crimes | hove been eamrnittcd, bn! should such evidence reach t.,cni pect a month ago. The cause of tlie failure this year hss been princi pally tho drouth,-which has not on ly scorched the corn and cotton to death, but killed even the trees. It hastened fruiting, snd the crop, ln- -tead ot being a. laie one, as expect ed, really ripened in advance of time. During the past two week*, of that is for county tax. They run a cash schedule now and they hsye the conbty on the high f-isir to low taxes. 'Well, this 1* good new*. These foolish Ameri cans likh I iw taxes.

The Ordi nary,. no' doubt, has everything in i is offite in apple pie order. —We heard a conversation the oth- ef da j-"which may not be uninterest ing m our reader*- The Dramatis Personae were as iollows: A large, portly gentleman, fat as old Daniel Ltmbert, fond of his ease, who laugh* jovially and love* bis pipe. Another was a lawyer, looking out for t;,ir world’s goods, and li iving an eye to “the provisions of that The. third wa9 a farmer, a tiller of tho soil, an .old settler, who knows how it has been fur .many a year. . . The fat man was smoking bis pipe, and seeming by indulging in utopian dreams.'Tax collecting aud farm ing seemed to him as a sorry per formance, in the bright perspective of what George. Willingham had said. . “Well,” said the- lawyer, “wlial are you thinking about, Mr. Tax C 'Hector ?” I was thinking of what George Willingham said about Florida." “ What did George say 7" “day I” “Wby/Oeorga said a great dial. He lives, yotr know, in Fiori da. Ue only went there a poor boy a few years ago and now he I- w Till $25,000. And, just to think, lammt ihe same old stand still.” H ero’s the farmer who h-td hoped for a big crop, but lioped in vain, caught the infection from the Tax Collect or’s eye, and remarked, "Why that beats farming. Y->u say George L in tho orange bu*inc**, is he?” “Ol oourse he is,-and getting-rich, I tell yon,” responded the fat man, as he wiped the* perspiration 'from brow.- Tho-/lawyer put in again. “You sey George went‘there on un cleared land snd has dono all that ? '.llow did he Uvo in the meantime? Who stood for'him? Have they got factors and warchoUso men dowu there who take liens on the orange crop as they do here on -ton?” “Lfens, factors, live in the meantime—the devil yon replied George’s friend, no—don’t need it there in Hernan do county, where George lives. Let toe tell yon. George says yon don’t have to • work much—an acre corn will make the first bushels, add then meat, nc fifteen cents, and "only chicken onr Sunday or when company comes, as here in Mitchell, bnt, George says, ho can go out every morning aud kill fifty squirrels in as many min- utes. and turkeys,'too, and 'possums, and ducks and wild geese—and as for fish”— The laner could stand it no lon ger,- he proposed to the farmer to get 'np a team and let’s go do wn and see George and bny in Florida and possess that land be fore all the old yankeys from New England and Wisconsin and Minne sota took the country. - The old farmer then added it was just so here 40 -years ago. Then he bad money a plenty—fish enongb, birds enough, bnt now it was very-bard to get the baby a frock. The Tax Collector resumed. “George says old man Shape lives on an island near him and has only to throw out his pole and mfish of large size is on it. 'Then yon remember when Tump and I went to see George. Why we saw where the potato ends had taken root, near the kitchen reimSpw, and the vine* ran on and on for nearly a' mile, and all George had-to do was to dig a bill and theie was a day’s bread—and George says he only planted a garden once in six years and keep the grass out. Itjnst hears on. His bean vines were as bigasfa young tree last win- terwhen they were killed for the first time in ten years.” The party broke up—each declaring he was goiug to Florida—the fat man having the last word. “Now remember, this is all true; yon know George, our old Our, brother Hawes madca bril liant" Senator, and be and Repre sentative Spence had a chat over “old times,”.
