The Detroit Free Frett learns that “a stranger got a free dinner of an Ohioee innkpcr the other da; by claiming to be Thomas Jeffer son.” The papers are discussing the question. “Can Grant's grandson become President/” Weil, he can't next year, though he might be Consul to Brest. —La Create Sun. Brigham Young has Just finished reading the report of the Beecher trial, and is trying to kick himself for bis folly in going off to Utah when he could hare accomplished so much more in the East. A Philadelphia newspaper compositor mis took “ tupi/rettio serf for “suppressed veils The college graduate who did the writting has thrown np his situation and applied for a place on a magazine. The good people who got up the demonstra tion in favor of the Mayor spelled his name wrong on the canvass, and carried it all over town that way. “Elect me every two weeks,” said Demosthenes to his fellow-Athenians, “atd put me up on a golden throne in the middle of the Hellespont and feed me on whales; bat don't, my Hellenic fellow-citizens, don't spell my name inaccurately." At the Liverpool Court of Passage, lately, a servant claimed damages for libel against a former mistress for stating, in answer to an inquiry about the servant’s character, that “she was neither strictly honest nor strictly sober.” It was urged in defense that this was a privileged communication, the portion com plained of being a specific answer to a specific question with reference to the character of a domestic servant. The Court so held, and uon-snited the plaintiff. Says the Cleveland Flaindealer: “Skeptics are beginning to believe in total depravity af ter reading the shameless lying and nucalled for slanders scattered through the Lender.” — There was a time when such utterances as this were pervaded by the repellent smell of pistols and the fragrant odor of coffee, lint the editor of to-day, great as is his proverbial antipathy to ail the invigorating cordials of the gilded saloon, would almost as soon drink with a man twice as to fight with him once. 'Die Baroness Bunlet t-Coutts has not, like most of her sex, that antipathy to the Free masons which is generated by the secrecy of their proceedings. Klie has, on the contrary, recognized the charitaldo disposition of the craft, and is going to work with them for the common good. In return for a present of “chairs of order” to the lodge which hears her name she is to he invited to a banquet; and this will he the first occasion in England on which a lady has been present when lodge fur niture as such will he used. Perhaps we shall next be hearing o f her admission to a lodge. Judge Myrick, of the Kan Francisco Probate Court, has decided, in the case of Mrs. King, that Sew York law is good in California, and that the plaintiff is made a widow by her hus band's life imprisonment, and is consequently entitled to inherit under her father’s will. It is a rather queer corollary of the decision that Mrs. King propones to use the SIO,OOO she will get in procuring anew trial for her husband, in the hope to resurrect him. And this, too, when she was laboring for a divorce when he murdered O’Neill. As tho old London porter said, “Bum erectors is wimmen!” The New York Bapid Transit Commissioners have before them sixty-seven above ground plans ami eleven under ground or tnunel plans, in all seventy-eight, the estimated cost running from SIOO,OOO to SOOO,OOO per mile. Of course each one of these plans is the host, and as not less than two [lersous are interested in each scheme, tho Commissioners are driven to the vorge of lunacy by ono hundred and fifty six voices, all eagerly explaining and expound- ing; each and all eager fur the plum of official endorsement. It would be impossible to de scribe those proiiosed roads in detail. Inge nuity is seemingly exhausted. Some havo one rail, some two; somo run through tubes. In one case tho cars aro suspended from the rails, and in another there is a movable platform. There aro one legged, two-legged and three logged roads. They are of iron and stone, and they aro to ho driven by movable and station ary eugiuos, and by no engines at all, but by gravity or by compressed air. That is rather a good joke on tho Indian captives in Florida, the refusal of their wives to join them. Tho big chiefs who are in limbo for indulging in tho diversion of murdering the whites made a piteous appeal for their dusky mates and little ones, and tho army officer in charge endorsed their request favor ably. Gen. Sheridan, in forwarding llie re quest, said the talk of the chiefs about their wires and children was “ rnero Indian twad dle, bat, nevertheless (tho General had just taken a wife, he it remembered), he would recommend that their request bo grantel, since they would never rest until they had them.” The requisite order for the removal of tho wives and children from tho Indian Ter ritory to Florida was issuod, hut now Agent Haworth telegraphs that the Sioux and Co manche women are nnwilling to go, and wants to know if he must forcibly remove them l’orh&ps, despairing of tlioir husbands’ release, thoy havo made other domestic arrangements. Tho question tho Government must now de cide is shall they he forced to go in compliance with the requost of husbands No. 1 ? Reports from tho West givoß estimates of tho amount of damage by the recent storms ami inundations in various localities. While at this tirno such estimates aro little better than guess work, they indicate certainly that serious losses havo fallen upon individuals and corporations, but whether any vory "great impression lias been made upon tho aggregate production of the country is a matter to be ascertained hereafter It Booms that in the inundated regions so far heard from tho acre age of cultivation was largely above that of last year, ami while there are estimates fixing tho damage at from twenty-five to fifty per cent., there aro localities whore tlio graiii will turn out an average crop as compared witli last year. This is illustrated in the Ohio valley, where the actual damage is shown to be heavy, and where the crops were superabundant. In tho Wabash valley, in Indiana, the losses have been more largely mixed, and the damage to property of all kinds is loosely estimated at #12,000,000. About the same average applies to damage to crops as in tho Ohio valley, ox cept in such isolated cases as tho swooping away of an entire crop by tho breaking of tho Wabasli and Erie canal. [ From the S]HU'tc* Times and Planter.] YOUNG MEN’S CHRISTIAN ASSO CIATION. According to previous notice, those who had signified their willingness to join the Association in this place, met at the Court House Wednesday after noon for organization. After the adoption of a constitution for the government of the Association, an election for officers to serve for the remainder of this year was entered in to, resulting as follows : President—Lovick Pierce, Jr. Vice-Presidents—W. D. Seymour and James A. Harley. Recording and Corresponding Secre tary—E. S. Wilsou. Treasurer—J. Clureuee Simmons. About forty-five have already enrolled their names as members, aud the list will doubtless be largely increased at the next meetiug. It was resolved that a meeting be held at the Court House ou Friday eveuing next, at 8 o'clock, for business aud de votional purposes, at which time the Standing Committees will be announced by the President, aud the Association will be fully in working condition. As this meetiug will be mainly for devotion al purposes, the public generally are invited to atteud. The Association also resolved to hold au open air meetiug iu front of the Court House at a quarter to six o’clock. Our people are going into the work heartily, and we may reasonably hope that great good will result from it. The objects sought by this Associa tion are the moral, social, mental aud spiritual improvement of young men— putting all church members actively to work for the accomplishment of this de sirable end. j Coming into existence under such favorable auspices, we confidently ex pect a good report from the “Young Meu’s Christian Association of Sparta. ’’ Good Meetings. A delegation from the Young Men’s Christian Association of Augusta visit ed our town last Monday and held seve ral meetiugs, which were largely attend ed and greatly enjoyed by the Christian people of the* community. The delega tion was composed of Messrs. Black, Wallace, Branch, Lane, Warren, Law and Irvine, accompanied by the Rev. Dr. Irvine, pastor of the Presbvterian Church, of Augusta; also, by Messrs. Pottle, Walker and Hubert, of the War reuton Association, and Messrs. Holley man and Blount, of Waynesboro Asso ciation. Meetings were held in all the churches during their stay, and an open air meetiug near the Court House at 6 o’clock on Monday afternoon. Every body was delighted with their manner of conducting the meetings, and there is reasou to believe that their visit has been not only enjoyable to Christians, but profitable to the community at large. This visit has resulted in the organi zation of au Association of like character in Sparta, under the most favorable and encouraging auspices. The churches have no stronger auxiliary than the Young Men’s Chris tian Association. The enlistment of the lay members as active workers for the Master’s Cause is something that has long been felt ; and the united, har monious working of all professed fol lowers of Christ, for the salvation of souls, is something that must rejoice the heart of every honest, true be liever. I THE STATE. TUG PEOPLE AND THE PAPERS. Griffin lxsus a rifle team. Albany baa received seven bales of new cotton. Two bales of Florid* cotton have reached Columbus. Fifty-two persons were baptised in DeKalb county last Sunday. A branch of the State geological sur vey is at work in McDuffie. Miss Annie C., daughter of J. A. Sey mour, of Macon, died last Tuesday. Newton has a colored circus company which gives black crook entertainments. A case of colored infanticide makes Covington feel almost as large as Sa vannah. Dr. Milo G. Hatch, formerly of this city, is building a handsome house in Sandeisville. Mr. Frank Mapp, of Milledgeville, was burglarized of a gold watch and 8120 the other night. The Young Men’s Christian Associa tion dedicated a hall in Borne last Sunday with appropriate exercises. B. B. Payne, of Atlanta, dealer in patter, paper bags and twine, has failed. Liabilities, $14,000; assets, SII,OOO. The McDuffie Journal publishes a strong editorial article in favor of a Con stitutional Convention for Georgia. The Borne Courier announces that Hon. A. H. Stephens is opposed to an immediate resumption of specie pay ments. Borne is gloomy over the defeat of the bond compromise—that is the best citi zens are, the Cushites don’t care a con tinental. Governor Smith and Treasurer Jones are wearing hay-seed and talking farm ing to the Agricultural Convention this week. The Griffin Newt rises to a question of privilege. The uew Atlanta company is not named the Mulligan but the Loch rnue Guards. Dick Eakin, colored, charged vrfth the murder of Bev. W. C. Moreau, es caped from the jail of Washington coun ty a few days ago. Gubernatorial candidates will help open the Coosa river for Some just as soon as they get through manipulating the farmers at Dalton. Ono thousand people attended the celebration of the Buford, Gwinnett coun ty, Sunday School Association at Su wanee, last Wednesday. Major D. W. Elder, of Oconee county, gave a barbecuo to his children, grand children and great-grand-cliildren a few days ago. Several speeches. The Northeast Georgian regrets the action of the Board of Trustees in abol ishing tutors’ places in the University. To all it says we desire to say, Amen ! The pipes of the Atlanta Water Works break with great ease and astonishing regularity. Tho water spouts are very fine and will prove a great attraction to strangers. Tho Marietta Journal remarks that three or four hundred Gubernatorial candidates “ needn’t shake in tlieir hoots” because “Little Aleck” walks abroad. A committee of Englishmen aro visit ing Atlanta in the interest of direct trade. Atlanta can do a large export business of brag and brass and gush aoid gammon. The editor of the Marietta Journal insinuates that the editor of the Atlanta Herald is an “imbecile and a lunatic.” If that Board is ever to meet let it as semble instanter. • The Borne Courier says General John ston receives $15,000 per annum, and would not be Governor ou a salary of $5,- 000. Only $4,000, Col. Willingham, un less the Code lietlr. The compromise of the Rome bonds was defeated by forty-eight colored men who voted against it. The largest prop erty owners voted for the measure, but Cuifee’s vote killed it. Atlanta is happy because water lias been brought into the city. Visitors to the place will be happy if the Atlantese will consent to use the water, during the Summer months at least. W. T. Goldsmith, M. D., of Atlanta, has discovered that sewers are an abom natiou and wishes them stopped up. The Atlanta papers have not yet taken position on the question. The people of Social Circle and vicin ity wish a uew county cut out of Newton with Social Circle as the Court House. The Legislature will be approached on the subject next January. At the risk of being personal, we de sire to state that the Warronton Clipper, under the management of Mr. H. W. J. Ham, is one of the liveliest and spici est weeklies in the country. The Commonwealth, with just indig nation, denies the statement of the Con stitution that of the one hundred and thirty-five lawyers in Atlanta only three use intoxicating beverages. A widow lady of McDuffie—Mrs. N. L. Cowles—discovered a negro seatitd in her house the other night. A rather loud request for a pistol reminded the scamp that lie had business elsewhere. Marietta lias been inflicted with an other edition of the Gourdvine, a scur rilous anonymous publication. Do the Marietta people know the virtue of tar and feathers ? We are afraid they do not. Pomona Grange—a grange of tho fifth degree—for the counties of Columbia, Liucohi, Wilkes anil McDuffie, will be organized in Thomson ou the 17th iust., by T. J. Smith, Master of the State Grange. Borne has rejected, by a majority of 15 votes in a poll of 231, the compro mise offered by the creditors of that city. Homo will soon liud out that she lias done a very foolish as well as a very wrong act. H. I. Kimball participated in the re cent Atlanta Direct Trade meeting. The English commissioners would find the testimony taken before the State Road Committee interesting reading in this eoiiueetiou. Muscogee county has §3,069,000 of city property. The aggregate value of property owned by whites is §7,756,000; by blacks, §96,000; total, §7,853,000. The total value of proporty last year, §8,300,000. The “undulating editor” of the War renton Clipper has been presented with a wooden hash spoon,.carefully propor tioned to the size of his mouth. The spoon can also be used as a batteau on fishing excursions. The Gwinnett Herald doesn’t believe that “Mr. Stephens or any other man Car- Til's the honesty of the State in his pan taloons pockets.” Is a pantaloons pock et the usual receptacle of individual or national integrity? A correspondent writes an article for the Milledgeville Union aspl Recorder showing the order of the Comptroller- General taxing all cotton in the hands of the producer on the first of April iu each year to be illegal. In the list of Gubernatorial candidates, published iu the Chronicle and Senti nel a few days ago, the names of Hon. Geo. N. Lester and Judge A. J. Hansell were unintentionally omitted. They ap pear in the revised list this morning. The Barnesville Gazette also calls upon Gov. Smith to take some action in regard to the recent outrageous mob n urder iu Twiggs county. Alas ! Gov. Smith is engaged at Dalton with the Graugers and knows not what has oc curred. There is no longer any doubt about it. Colonel Jack Brown has been commis sioned aud appointed Collector of Inter nal Revenue for tho Atlanta District. The straight-out Democrat of 1872 will doubtless be a third term Grant man in 1876. Mr. Stephens says he will not be a candidate for Governor, he did not make a flank movement on Cherokee Georgia, and is not enlisting the mountaineers under his banner. General Colquitt and’ Colonel Hardeman may now resume the hay-seed. The “respectable” married people of Atlanta have again been heard from. The Herald says a “respectable” mar ried couple had a quarrel the other night; the husband was cut in two places and both of the respectables were arrested. No names. The Covington Enterprise endorses the suggestion of the Chronicle and | Sentinel that Sergeant Bates be placed | upon the chain-gang as a vagrant if he i comes to Georgia with his flag foolery, j Bates beware 1 Did’st “ ever run the ' gander,” Ba.es ? i An “old soldier” writes to the Rome : Commercial r ominating Gen. Joseph E. I Jolinsto l as a candidate for Governor. Unfortunately for the people of Georgia, perhaps, Gen. Johnston has not yet been made a citizen—Congress still keeps him under the ban. Mr. Fred. T. Lockhart, of Augusta, has furnished the McDuffie. Journal tor publication the two beautiful songs— “ Scatter Seeds of Kindness” and “If Papa was Only Ready”—which he sung with so much effect at the recent meet ing of the Young Men’s Christian Asso ciation in Thomson. Coweta county has 25,000 acres plant ed in corn ; 32,000 in cotton ; 8,000 in wheat ; 9,000 in oats ; 5,000 in peas ; 400 in sorghum. The county has 6,000 hogs, 2,600 of which will be ready for killing next Winter ; 1,868 sheep, and 1,476 dogs, which kil'ed 270 sheep dar ing the past twelve months. Cobb county is in a quandary on the Gubernatorial question. “Colqnitt is ingratiating himself in the good opinion of everybody,” and “Tom Hardeman’s eloquent voice has made too deep an im pression upon the- people for them to soon forget him.” Sad! How happy could I be with either t’other dear charmer away. The Barnett Horse Guards gave a bar becue last Saturday, and entertained the Warren Light Infantry. There was a large crowd in attendance and the day was heartily enjoyed. Speeches were made by Judge Pottle, Hon. C. S. Du- Bose, Col. Joshua Nichols, Maj. C. E. McGregor and Mr. H. W. J. Ham, edi tor of the Warrenton Clipper. If Col. H. H. Jones, of the Telegraph and Messenger, was defeated for mem ber of the Board of Trustees of the University, his defeat reflects no credit on those who brought it about. Cob Jones deserved the position, not because he is a “newspaper man,” but because he is a gentleman of talent and culture, who has labored assidiously to promote the interests of the institution. He is ten times more lit for the position than a good many of those who are now upon the Board. A he ivy influence will be brought to bear upon the next Legislature to make some provision for the many insane persons who are nnable to gain admit tance to the asylnm at Milledgeville. The capacity of that asylum would ac commodate the whites, but it canuot, nor ought not, to contain both races. Let the State provide for the colored insane of Georgia by erecting buildings suitable for the purpose. It is but jus tice to that unfortunate class, and will relieve the several counties of a heavy tax. —Thomatville Times. We take this method to warn our brethren of the country press against two strolling vagabonds named Pritch ard and Lee. These fellows are the very lowest type of vagabonds and are totally unworthy of any kind of charity and are not to be trusted out of sight. They are making their way towards to wa-ds Augusta, where Pritchard is too well known to both the fraternity and the public to make any caution concern ing him necessary. Look out for them. —Covington Enterprise. Specimen item in an Augusta daily : “Avery fine mare, which has been placed in charge of Mr. Murray, for training, by Maj. W. T. Gary, was very severely injured Friday on the spine, near the tail, by a policeman striking him as lie was passing across Campbell street, on Greene street, ridden slowly by a colored hostler for exercise.” Now, who was being ridden across Greene street, Murray, Gary, the policeman, the colored hostler, or the mare ? An swers solicited to the above enigma, entries to close September Ist. War renton Clipper. Now, will the undu lating Professor be good enough to in form ns which Augusta paper published the “specimen item?” The following persons and corpora tions in Chatham county pay tax on over SIOO,OOO worth of real and personal property: E. C. Anderson, Jr., $197,- 739; A. Champion, $114,000; G. W. J. Deßenne, $299,400; W. H. Gibbons, $130,000; G. Noble Jones, $104,500; Eugene Kellv, $104,370; N. B. Knapp, $126,892; estate of G. A. L. Lamar, $116,530; Andrew Low, $104,300; Mrs. Mary M. Marshall, $189,750; C. F. Mills, $340,000; estate of G. W. Owens, $108,200; W. Bemshart, 115,200; Savau; nalr Gas Light Company, $300,000- Southern Bank State of Georgia, $461,- 000; United Hydraulic Cotton Press Company, $176,160; Upper Steam Bice Mill, $105,000; estate of J. Waldburg, $135,500; George W. Wylly, $114,240. We claim that Mr. Green Dozier, the father of our esteemed friend Colonel E. J. Dozier, of the firm of Dozier, Wal ton & Cos., of Augusta, is the champion farmer of Georgia. Mr. Dozier has made good crops as a farmer since 1811, and has owned and farmed the place he now occupies since 1813. In other words, he is eighty-three years of age and has made sixty-four crops, sixty two of them having been made on the same plantation, which is to-day in bet ter condition than when he purchased in 1813. During his entire life, as a farm er, M* Dozier has never purchased a bushel of corn nor one pound of bacon or flour, nor has he ever been in debt. His life and record as a Christian gen tleman and in all the social relationships of life is without a blemish. Can the State produce another of whom this much cau be said. —McDuffie Journal. From tables prepared by the Depart ment of Agriculture, it appears that the average price of farm labor with board in the United States is sl2 40 per month, being a decline of nearly twenty per cent, since 1869. Part of this difference, however, is found in the disproportion in numbers of laborers of the bigger and lower classes in efficiency and money value. The calculations are based on the numbers given respectively in the census of 1860 and 1870, and in the lat ter the slaves of the former period, who had no place in that enumeration, are included as farm laborers, increasing the proportion of low-priced labor and reducing the average. The average price of labor, with board, in the South ern States is $lO 17; in the Western, sl3 66; in the Middle, sl6 81; in the Eastern, $lB 58; on the Pacific coast, S2B 12; and in the Territories, $lB 25. The Atlanta Herald gives some figures which show that its city has not attain ed its late growth and prosperity with out having to pay for it. It saw the necessity of railroad and other improve ments, and aided them liberally, incur ring thereby a large debt. The Herald says : “With a population of 33,000, we havo a debt of nearly $2,000,000, or about S6O to every man, woman and child in the city. The value of our taxable property is about $13,000,000, fourteen per cent, of which is pledged for the debt of the city. The interest account of Atlanta grows $460 every twenty-four hours. Every hour of the day or night that slips by add sl9 to their interest account. It costs ns over sl9 an hour, or $460 a day to carry the debt with which we are saddled. During the last year this debt was increased by $425,- (X)0. As to what we have to show for this immense debt, we need not discuss at present. While much, very much of the money that goes to make it up has been wasted, it has given ns much that is valuable. Colonel T. J. Smith writes to the Ma con Telegraph: Iu canvassing various counties—McDuffie and Columbia on the Georgia Railroad, Telfair, Appling and Montgomery on the Macon and Brunswick Railroad, Sumter, Lee and Webster on the Southwestern Railroad, Cobb aud Cherokee, and many middle counties of Georgia, iu the interest of the Grange organization—it gave me a good opportunity to see a great many crops, aud those in the former oouuties on the Georgia Railroad, Macon aud Brunswick Railroad, and Southwestern Railroad, are seriously damaged from the recent drouth and burning sun. The corn crop is materially cut off, whilst many were liberal in their views that cotton could still make a good crop, though the best judges were of opinion all the early cot ton is seriously cut off, and this opinion struck me as most in accordance with all I witnessed. In Middle Georgia the crops are better. Occasional neighbor hoods seriously cut off, whilst those that were favored with partial rains and the upper counties have better pros pects. In fact, the more northern conn ties have fine crops. The rains this season have been partial, not a general rain has fallen all Hammer. Crop Reports. Cotton appears to be well fruited. Corn looks healthy in most places, but the early corn will make now without much more rain. Late and bottom corn look well. Peas and potatoes promise a good yield. Economy has been the al most universal motto of our farmers. God grant that these noble tillers of the soil may be blessed with abundant yields, and receive good prices for their cotton —Covington Enterprise. From Mr. A. M. Wolihln and Mr. Morris Southeimer, who traveled over the greater portion of Colquitt county last week, we learn that the corn and cotton crops are serionslv cut off by the dronght. There had been no rain to do any good for many weeks, and streams, lakes, ponds and creeks, that were never known to be dry before had ceased to afford enough water for stock; but the rains were beginning to fall abont in spots, and no great suffering appre hended. —Albany Hews. The Quitman Reporter says: The crops in Brooks county, we find upon visiting the country, and talking with some of our most practical and reliable farmers, are not anything like as good as we supposed and reported them to be a short time since. We find that not only; corn has been injured by the drought, but cotton has been shed ding both leaves and fruit to a fear ful extent; and it is estimated by ex pe -ienced planters that the chief pro duct of our section will be cut short at least one half. The sweet potato crop will be unusually small, owing to the fact that we had no rain until it was too late to set ont vines, which is the most popular mode of planting among onr farmers. Marriages.

Weekly Review of Augusta Market. Augusta, Ga., Friday Aftkkiioon, ) August 13,1876. f General Remarks. The condition of trade in Augusta during the past week has been duller even than that of the two or three weeks immediately preceding. Beyond the ordinary home demand there has really not been enough business to warrant any change in quotations, so the figures to our resume, with one or two Blight exceptions, re main as last week. The fact is city and country merchants are “laying on their oars” and wait ing for the advent of the new cotton crop, which will instill life into all branches of com merce in this section. The old king is monarch yet, and hie white locks are destined to wear the crown for many years to come. As long as our farmers devote their entire energies to the production of this staple, depending upon the West for provisions, must the eyes of the Somth be turned principally to this product. The failure of the cotton crop practically means disaster and ruin not only to the pro ducer but to the mercantile community. Id the provision line but little has been done during "the week, and our quotations are un changed except in the matter of Western flour, which has advanced slightly. There is no ex-, citemeut in the market, however. The stock is light and holders are firm at quotations. Bacon is scarce aud firm with a fair demand. Wheat, which last week seemed destined to run up to higher figures than any reached this season, has halted. As the advance was brought about by reports in regard to the Western floods, so it was checked, later advices having shown that the disasters were not half so bad as people at first expected. From the present stand-point there seems to be no prospect of any further advance. Asa matter of interest we place before our readers the following from the New York Produce Exchange Weekly, of August 6, showing the visible supply of gram, comprising stocks in granary at the principal points of accumulation at iake and seaboard ports, in transit on the 1 see, by rail, and on New York canals July 31, 1875: Wheat, Corn, Oats, Barly, bush. bush. bush. bush.

New York Dry Goods Market. [ Atm York Bulletin.] The trade movement was spasmodic, and during the earlier part of the week the market was depressed by unfavorable reports con cerning the damage done to the crops in the West b\ stormy weather. Before the close of the week confidence had been measurably re stored, and advices from leading merchants in larger Western distributing points were of are assuring character. There was, however, an absence of snap to tho demand for dry goods, and operations were conducted in a hand-to mouth manner, which was somewhat disap pointing to holders of merchandise, who were led to anticipate a brisk movement with the opening of August. There is not apparently any substantial reason for despondency in re gard to the Fall trade. Buyers have become tired of purchasing goods months in advance of their probable requirements for which there is now 1 no occasion, as transportation facilities have been so greatly improved rosidont buyers have become more numerous, and the tele graph is an invaluable agent for the speedy re plenishment of broken assortments. There is every reason to believe that carried over stocks of winter goods are exceptionably light in the hands of both jobbers and retailers throughout the country, henoe a moderately large and en tirely healthy autumn trade seems highly pro bable. There was in addition to a moderate demand for strictly staple fabrics an improved movement in nearly all descriptions of autumn goods, and the commission houses effected considerable saleß of worsted dress goods woolen and worsted shawls, liuseys, felt skirts, lioisery, shirts and drawers, Cardigan jackets, Ac., prices for which were established by the leading agents. Prints and ginghams were also in better demand, although individual se lections were comparatively small. Cotton goods moved slowly from agents' hands, and but few descriptions were really active. Cot ton flannels, corset jeans and satteens, plaid chevoits and a few leading makes of brown and bleached cottons were severally in steady request by jobbers, but the general market rnled quiet and featureless. Prices were on the whole fairly sustained, but concessions were mado on a few makes of ticking in order to stimulate their movement, which had the desired effect. Tho supply of cotton goods i still large—probably excessive of several de scriptions—despite the curtailed production, and although it is not our province to give ad vice ta manufacturers, it may be well for them to consider the expediency of still further re ducing tho supply ih order to give steadiness to the market, and thus enable their agents to obtain a paying price for manufactured goods. There was a steady doiaud for heavy standard, four-yard and fine brown sheetings, sales of which to city and out-of-town jobbers reached a considerable aggregate amount. Wide sheet ings remained quiet with agents and jobbers. Bleached sheetings and shirtings continued quiet, apart from a few of the most popular makos, which met with moderate sales. There was also a small export demand for shirtings, but tho general movement was unsatisfactory and the supply is largely in excess of the cur rent demand. Davol 4-4 was reduced to 13jo. Cotton flannels were still active in agents’ hands, and the sales of the week, combined with liberal deliveries on account of former orders, reached an important amount. Several of the leading makos are sold up to receipts by the agents. Corset jeans and satteons— The best colored makes moved steady and in considerable parcels, and fhe supply of such barely keeps pace with the demand. Dyed ducks were taken more freely by tho Western and California trade, to whom some fair par cels were disposed of. The Bengal rattan si ipeg were in undiminished request. Colored cottons ruled quiet, except Cheviots., which continued iu good demand. Tickings moved slowly, and concessions were made on some makes in order to reduce accumulations. Den ims remainod inactive, and there was no move ment of importance in either stripes, apron cheeks or cottonades. Boiled jaceonets were in limited request, and flat'fold oambrios and silesias ruled quiet. Grain bags were distri buted in considerable amounts by jobbers and closed steady in price. Print cloths were very lightly dealt in. and the sales of the week were unusually small. Quotations were almost nom inal, some holders demanding sjc for extra G4’s. but no transactions were reported above s}c—3o days. The strike at Fall River continues, but indications of a Hpeedy settlement are not lacking; in the meantime all the mills are closed. There was considerable activity ill the calico market, but individual purchases were exceptionally light, and tho aggregate distri bution failed to realize the expectations of holders. The new styles thrown on the mar ket during the week included Oriental fancies at B}c anu robes at 9c, Wasliiagton fancies at B}c, 'Sprague’s fancies at 8c and Freeman’s fancies at 7}c. all of whioh wore favorably re ceived by the trade. Pacific, Manchester, Hamilton, Richmond, DunneU’s, Bristol, American, Coclieco, Southbridge, Hartel's, Gloucester, Merrimac, Oriental and Washing ton prints are all held at B}c, Allen’s and Sprague’s at Bc, and Gamer's at 7Jo, while the price of Arnold’s will be definitely made in a few days. The Bristol plaid prints, styles 761, 757, 758, 767 and 706 are sold to arrive, and Southbridge fancies, styles 174, 175. 177. 180. 184, 185. 188. 193, 194, 196, have been closed out, and are in course of their second print ing, the whole of which style, 180, has already been engaged. Ginghams—The current pro duction of leading standard makeH ifi fail color ings has been taken by the trade on receipt, and many styles are sold to arrive, including the new green plaids manufactured by the Renfrew Cos., which are ve r y choice goods. The Lancaster and Amoskeag fancies are also closely sold up to the receipts by the agents. Dress goods have been decidedly more active iu first harfls, and the jobbing movement has shown increased animation. The Pacific Mills productions, which were opened during tho week, embrace ail the popular staple styles, as well as numerous new candidates for public fa vor. The printed Argyles, in imitation of woven dress goods (in self-colored plaids. Ac.) have made a hit, and are already selling freely by the leading jobbers. The Pacific woven fabrics present the same points of excellence which distinguished thorn in former seasons, and which lias done much towards populariz ing American dress goods. The Manchester Mills fabrics are in every way desirable, and have been placed on the market at attractive prices, which cannot fail to meet the approba tion of the trade. The Washington Mills have surpassed their former efforts in the manufac ture of dress goods, and this season show a really snrperior line of self-colored plaids, in addition to a full choice of alpacas, poplins, cretonnes. Ac. Scheppersßrothers’dress fab rics and Hamilton reps have been hitherto re ferred to in terms of recommendation, and have mot with liberal sales. The Augusta Hardware Market.
