ttprontctf ana Sentinel. WEDNESDAY,. .SEPT’BER 29. 1875. MINOR TOPICS. A petrified plug of tobacco haa been fonnd in Colorado. Of course we don't want to get into trouble with the theologians, but if this isn't proof that Noah stepped off the ark in America, then what is proof ? We are going to hare a war with Mexico. The Government sent 150 recruits to Fort Union. And here's Ames howling for men and munitions of war to carry the elections in Mis sissippi. Hadn't o better inflate the army— or contract Ames ? An Englishman was lately arrested for “steal ing gas " by attaching a rubber tube to a pipe in the cellar of an unoccupied house next door to his own. He had drawn off 600,000 feet in fire yearn. The Engl shman, it will be ob served, was guilty of a crime just opposite to that of our average stumn speaker, who steal somebody's thunder, but furnishes hie own gas. The Scotch don’t waste their time in crack ing jokes while at the cattle shows, “dome Scotch exhibitors have been detected artificial ly turning up the horns of their Ayrshire cat tle, blowing in air beneath their shoulders to Inc: ease the girth around the heart and sewing on false'bush tales. Others exhibiting milch cows have been found feeding them their owtr milk soon after it was drawn from them." A discovery made by a Chattanooga paper in regard to the powers of the Jamestown weed mast eventuaJy crowd from the market the article known as Cincinnati whisky. The per son eating of this weed, which grows nearlv everywhere, and is within the reach of the poorest, “becomes wild and delirious, imagines he sees all sorts of loathsome reptiles, and shouts and acts generally like a person in a crazy fit from over drinking.” A high toned English aristocrat, a nephew of Lord Thane!, was arrested by the Pans police on Tuesday, together with his wife and children, charged with picking a woman’s pocket in an omnibus. The family was strip ped Individually and examined, but no proof of guilt ctitiid be found. There will dijubtless be a horrible growl from John Bull about the affair. Tfcf fbfench policemen probably think, since they read the Baker case, that it is not always best to respect the persons and honor of English gentlemen. An association for the protection of gentle men traveling in railway carriages has been formed in London. The circular dilates ou the frequency of extortion practiced by females in railway carriages, and quotes a number of cases which have transpired in law courts where the intim.dation has been resisted. Among others, the Duke of Welington is spoken of as having been victimized. The as sociation hopes to hare an influence through its mere existence in giving men who are threatened determination to rosist extortion and retaliate on the assailant. About two weeks since a Spartan Justice of the Peace in (leorgia sent his wife to jail on a charge of stealing a dress, declining to go bail for her appearance. An enemy of the Justice went on her bond after she had been fed on the bread of affliction and coffee of tears for ten days. Ou leaving the prison she was in formed that her husband bad on the day of her incarceration discharged the cook, whom they had had in the family for twenty-throe years, and etigaged.an odions creature of nineteen. Remarking simply, “Ho has, has lie ?” she bent her way homewards. * * * They believe in a gold baeis over in Cali fornia, and boast of the strength it gives them to withstand any financial storms. They ray: “A twenty dollar piece is always of the same value, and never depreciates; it always is worth a premium in New York over the fluctuating greenback. Ho that, when inflation of their currency brings its inevitable results, we are ready with our gold at high prices to ballast their shaky ship, and when the storm subsides and they can dispense with their ballast for a time, we take it back, and pocketing the difference, can afford to wait until they get into trouble again. And as we always make tbo profit, it is probablo we can stand it as long as they can.” When a failure occurs like that of the Bank of California, “no iudustry or enterprise is retarded for a moment;” the business men “simply shake themselves and go on again as though nothing had happened, every man knowing that the foundation is solid.” There is something in this worthy to be carefully considered by the Eastern fluauc.ers, and especially by our over enthnsiastio inflationists. President Grant has not only a nice appre ciation of humor, but ou occasion is apt at re partee. During his recent vacation at Long Branch he was called to Washington ou public business and while there was handed for sig nature several commissions of postmasters. There were also presented to him a number of petitions, among them one from citizens of Vineland, N. J., for the removal of Mr. Landis from the postmastersbip. Mr. Landis, it will be remembered, is the gentleman who in an informal and impromptu manner “promoted” a small globe of lead into the brain of Mr. Ca ruth, (ho editor of tho Vineland papor. The President askod, “Is there any irregularity iu Mr. Landis’ accounts ?’’ “Not any,” replied the pleasant-voiced Postmaster-General. “Is the office well conducted ?” “No complaint on that scoro." “Intemyerate habits?” “Noth ing of the kind charged. ’’ “What is tho objec tion ?" "The petitioners say ho is rather ob noxious, anil that a change would bo sati-fac tory." "Well.” repliod the President, with the slightest possible twinkle at the Postmaster- General, “ho doosn't appear to hare done any thing but shoot an editor, and I don’t see how I can remove him on that.” In an interview with the reporter of a New York papor, Carl Hchurz says that busi ness is dull all over the world, iu England and Germany especially so, while Frauco seems to him at present the moat prosperous of Euro poan countries ; that is, ordinary business is more active there than elsewhere. The oanse of the existing depression of business every where is more general than is commonly sup posed, and though fluctuations of currency aud Iho ne of paper money have had much to do with it, yet the telegraph itself, benett ceut though it be in the long ruu, has oaused I much of the difficulties under which the world j is now laboring. The first effect of the tele graph bringing information instantaneously from the mqst remote points was to cause active speculation ; prices at once went up beyond their legitimate standard, and now that the reaction has set in, business becomes dull. The condition of the tea-growing dis tricts in China and Japan, of the viuevards of Frauee and Germany, of the cotton in the Southern States. Ac., is too well kuowu every where to permit of aciivity iu business, the world growing so small as to be iu knowledge of conditions a town, while the moans of transportation are not bettered in proportion. PERSONAL AND POLITICAL. The Hon. Galusha A. Grow has returned to Plnladelpi ia, from Texas, aud will take the btump for Hartranft and hard money. Olive Logan's liusbvud saved a woman from drowning at Long Branch on Wednesday. His name was Sykes before Olive married him. Hans Christian. Andersen's large collection of letters, lus own. aud those written to him by distinguished persons, are to be published. Lord Houghton will make an exteuded tour in the Southern States for the purpose of as certaining the exact condition of affairs in this section of the Union. They sav that Mauton Marble, of the New York Moral, w ote tile Syracuse hard money platform Gov. Tilden. Horatio Seymour and Senator Keman making suggestions." It is said in Massachusetts that Gen. Butler remains quiet in the present State contest be cause he aoc* not agree with the Ucpublicans on the cnrreii.y question nor with the Demo crats ou tho conciliation question. , Ron. D. W. Voorhese.of Indiana, has sosbap ed his private affairs that he will be able to take a baud in the Ohio cauvass, his first engage ment being at Cleveland. October 4. Governor Allen and Governor Hendricks will also be heard from ou that occasion. * The venerable Dr. Lovick Fierce, of the Southern Methodist Episcopal Church, who is nearly 100 years old. is still able to do occa sional service as a preacher. He is a fraternal delegate to the General Conference of the M -tliodist Episcopal Church tNorth), which meets next year. The Admiral commanding the English equadrou in the Mediterranean recently visit ed. in company wiih some of his officers, the house in which Napoleon I was born at Ajaccio, Corsica. The Bonapartist party profited by the occurrence to declare that the English navy is unanimously iu favor of Napoleon TV. Our New York dispatches state that the ! Liberal Republicans of New York will make I no nomination for a State ticket. One of the j most prominent of them, however. Hon. Reu ben E Fenton, lias publicly announced bis re turn to the Republican party—“ln view of the disappearance of the causes of difference here- | tofore existing.” The egotism of woman surpasses even that of man. Kate Stanton is coming out with a * new lecture entitled “Why 1 Studied Law." I The world has a vast amount of idle and fool ish curiosity. but it is to be doubted whetner there are more than fifteen persons on the globe who would give two cents to know why Miss Stanton studied law. or that she ever studied it at ail. The Mississippi newspapers are “going for” Governor Ames in quite a wicked way j ust uow. owing to his late cad upon Grant for troops ! that were not needed aud to his inducing .the sheriff of Hmds coui.it to send that “false dispatch" to Washington. Thev sav he can i never again represent that State in the United ! States Senate, aud it seems probable that Adel- I bert will hud Mississippi a verr hot eountrv. even in the Winter time. The Radicals in Ohio have started the little game for swelling tue party vote thev have played so successfully iu the South on several occasions. The Cincinnati Ewjuirrr savs: “We have iuformatiou that au organized effort to oob nize negro voters in Ohio iu the coming elect! uis in active progress. A trustworthy gentleman writes ns from Indiana that lie knows of movements on foot to send negroes to Ohio, as many as can be found, to vote the Radical ticket.” General Dix has written an ope letter to Mr. Reverdv Johnson, thanking him for his re cent letter ou the currency, and endorsing lus opposition to the legal tender act. against which General Dix strongly protested to Sec retary Chase, believing it to be unwarranted by the Constitution, aud in violation of the rights of property. He says ins opinion is un changed. and that he is satisfied that, had the war been conducted without the issue of legal tender notes, it would have cost a thousand million less. I THE STATE. THE PEOPLH AND THE PAPERS. It is now called the “ Suicide City. Hart county has twenty-four public schools. Rev. Dr. DeVotie, of Griffin, is seri ously ill. Three negroes recently escaped from Coweta jail. Every store in Albany is, or soon will be, occupied. And now we hear of Atlanta drum mers in Virginia. J. W. Storey’s store, in Hamilton, was burglarized recently. The failure of Mark W. Johnson, of Atlanta, is announced. L. B. Clayton has returned from Texas to Saudersville. Colonel J. M. Calhoun, of Atlanta, lies in a precarious condition. Mr. Cook McLeroy has moved from Florida back to Harris connty. Wm. Gallaber has been re-elected Clerk and Treasurer of Sandersville. Hog Eye Church, in Butts county, has recenty had fifteen new accessions. Sandersville is out of debt and her streets and public works in good condi tion. “ Let Georgians Marry Georgians,” says the Rockdale Register. A good motto. A number of horses in Washington connty have died recently with blind staggers. Capt. J. E. Weddon has been re-elect ed Marshal and Street Overseer of San dersville. TheHemilton Visitor is offered for sale on account of the ill health of the proprietor. To the 22d, Columbns bad received 320 bales of cotton less than at the same time last year. The Fitch charges the “T. J.” with “verdancy.” What says the party of the second part ? Neal Head, of Cartersville, died re cently from getting a piece of chicken bone in his throat. Rev. A. G. Haygood has resigned his position as Sunday School Secretary of the M. E. Church, Sonth. Frank Gunby, of Columbns, has gone to Charleston to become a member of a commission and brokerage firm. Some low down white men waylaid a negro in Heard county and robbed him of a pair of boots which he had on. An interest in the Sandersville Herald and Georgian is offered for sale. It is one of the best weeklies in the State. The residence of Thomas T. Brown, in Greene county, was destroyed by tire the 19th inst. No insurance. Loss, 85,000. Near Carsonville, Taylor county, 18th, Henry Gholston cut and killed John Amos, in an affray about a jng of molasses. Squire Christopher Binns was nomi nated in Wilkes county to fill the vacan cy made in the Legislature by the death of Capt. W. A. Quinn. The Governor has been petitioned to commute the sentence of Brinkley, who murdered his wife in Newnau last year, and has been condemned to be hung. The editor of the Marietta Journal objects to being dubbed Major. He says he is one of the “ surviving pri vates” under Bob Lee, so hard to find these days. The heavy rains of last week serious ly damaged unpicked cotton and un gathered corn in Cobb county, washing low lands and sweeping away mills and mill dams. The Monroe Advertiser says Bishop Geo. F. Pierce expects to make his future home in Oxford. He has pur chased the Capers place in that village. “H. H. J.,” the great perambulating quill driver of America, knows how to save the pennies. He writes from Phila delphia how he saved 81 93 by snub bing the hackmen and riding in a street car. The young men of Union Point have organized a military company. Captain, O. E. Fiuker; Lieutenants, J. C. Hart, T. E. Daniel. The company is named the Colquitt Guards, in honor of Gene ral Colquitt. The question is, Why did United States officials, knowing of the reward offered by the Governor for Joe Morris, and tho true bill against him, hold nightly confab with him and harbor him from the law officers of the State ? The Columbns Enquirer says: We are informed on authority that Gov. Smith was very anxious for Judge M. J. Craw ford, of Columbus, to accept a place on tho Supreme Court Bench of Georgia be fore tho late appointments were made. Quoth the Albany Nexus : “ O, wo man, woman ; thou should’st have few sins of thine own to answer for. Thou art the author of such a book of follies iu man that it would take the tears of all the angels to blot the record out.” The Cohimbus Enquirer says Mr. Estill now lias a better opportunity than any other publisher in the South to es tablish iu one of our chief cities the “first class daily” of which we have lately heard so much, and trusts he will improve his opportunity. An exchauge says Atlanta is going to establish a “ Magdalen Horae” for the reformation of fallen women. Would it not be better to devote the money it would take to relieving the suffering of those who have not fallen, and, per chance, keep than from falling 1 Why wait till they are fallen to provide homes for poor girls ? The Sandersville Herald and Geor gian,, of the 23d, says : “A large num ber of the colored people of the county met in this city ou Saturday last to talk about aud hear about emigatiou. Af ter considerable speechifyiug in front of the Court House they adjourned to the old church to.close up the business and appoint two men to go and search out a new home for them.” For a long tinffe the Judge of the Su perior Courts of the Atlanta Circuit (Hopkins) has been in the habit of for bidding and preventing counsel from reading law to the jury on the trial ol crimiual cases. The Supreme Court has put a stop to this habit by deciding that a lawyer may read law to the jury in a criminal case if he chooses to do so, and the Court has no authority to pro hibit it. A just decision. Tt has been the law all the time. Thompson Allan, Assistant Comptrol ler-General of the State under Hon. Madison Bell, died at his home, in Bauks connty, the 17th inst. An “Iu Memoriam” in the Constitution says of him: “He was an honest man, a gentle man, aud a patriot of the highest type, adorning every station he filled, and was honored most by those who knew him best.” From what we knew of him, we believe this is a deserved tribute to Mr. Allan. • The Albany News prints tho following hopeful paragraph: We maintain that Albany will receive as much cotton as she did last year, and if J. F. is a little late in his first blighting visit, five to ten thousand bales more may be expect ed. Many crops are better than last year, and planters are more hopeful than they were three weeks ago. There will be no suffering in our bailiwick this year. The pea crop is immense, pota toes and turnips are a success, and the oat planttiug mania is universal. McDuffie Journal: Gen. Toombs, who is here iu attendance upon the Superior Court, was serenaded by the Thomson Cornet Band, Monday night, and called ou for a speech. The old statesman, who is always ready, responded in a few eloquent and encouraging remarks on the recent revolution in political af fairs, denounced the error of sacrificing principles to policy, urged the impor tance of strict adherence to the old De mocratic doctrines of Jefferson, Madi son, Clay and other great statesmen, aud predicted the utter destruction of the Radical party iu the great political con test of 1876. Sandersville Herald : An article ap peared last week from the Atlanta cor respondent of the Augusta Oon*titu i tionaiist, announcing, with great posi ! tiveness, that Gov. Johnson's friends intend to pass him for the nomination i for the Gubernatorial Chair next year. Gov. Johnson is now holding Court here and we have conversed with him on the subject. He says “he has no as piration for the office, is not advised that his friends intend to press him for the nomination; he has never authorized any one, either directly or indirectly, to do* so, or to place him in the attitude of ' a candidate for the nomination, and that he has not the least desire for the ! office of Governor.” Governor, one reason we want yon is the fact that yon are not scrambling or scheming for it “The West to Lead the South. " Under this heading the St. Lonis Times has an article attributing indirectly some influence south of Kentucky to the Louisville Courier-Journal. We seise the opportunity to assure the Timet that the Courier-Journal has no more influence upon Southern sentiment than moonshine has upon a frozen fountain. We express the opinion in terms as com plimentary to the C.-J. as poetic license will permit.— jS’athriUe American. We certify, to the best of our knowledge and belief, that the opinion above expressed by the American is entirely correct. — Savannah JWies. Believing the above : statement, in so far as it touches this State, its people and its papers, to be unqualifiedly true, we hereby most un \ reservedly subscribe to it. “H. H. J.” writes to the Macon Tele graph from Philadelphia that the peo p'e think centennial, talk centennial, dream centennial and act centennial. It is almost as bad bb t.he bragging of the Atlanta people. Bat they have good reason to expect great things, for every day deepens the conviction, amounting now to positive certainty, that such a crowd as the world never saw before will pour their contributions in dollars and cents next year into the laps of the ex pectant inhabitants. And this beautiful city, always as neat and prim as one of its own Quaker maidens, will receive them in holiday attire. Not a house that won’t be brnshed up and repainted; not an inch of pavement left unrepaired; not a merchant that will not make a bazaar of his shop windows; not a park that will not bs decked with flowers and fountains; while all the good thiiigs and every amusement ever invented or heard of will be forthcoming to tempt and charm the cosmopolitan multitudes who will be present. They are discussing the subject of sewers in Atlanta. It seems that some years ago the same subject was much discussed in Cincinnati, so an Atlanta firm wrote to the editor of the Commer cial to get his views on the subject. They received the following reply: The Cincinnati Commercial, \ Editor’s Office, Sep. 13, 1875. j Gentlemen —I have not got docu- 1 ments on the subject of sewers. The latest intelligence is, 1. They are jobs undertaken to squan der the money of the people. 2. No system of sewerage can ever be completed, at least no one ever is. The more you do, the more imperative the demand for extensions. 3. They pollute rivers and waste the sewerage that ought to be made useful. 4. The jobbers run them in front of bouses when the water closets are in the rear, makiDg connection impossible or excessively costly, apd endless jobbery for plumbers. 5. They diffuse contagious diseases, and by the circulation of sewerage gas caose malignant fevers. 6. The damned rascals never half bnild the sewers, and they are nuisances forever. Please post me as to the progress of this discussion in your city. M. Halstead. Deaths. In Blakely, recently, James Boon. In Cuthbert, 17tb, N. H. Geeslin. In Clay county, 18th, LaFayette Gill.

Washington, September 25.—The September report of the Department of Agriculture says of the corn crop: Could it be thoroughly ripened its ag gregate would exceed any previous crop, and the yield per acre wonld be one of the best, notwithstanding the losses by overflow of bottoms and saturation of heavy flat soils, such losses proving less than the usual damages by drouth and insects, while the rains have greatly benefited the crop on drier aud higher soils. Nearly everywhere corn is late in maturing, from one to two weeks. The general high condition is still main tained, the average being one per cent, higher than in August. The State averages are : Maine, 105; New Hamp shire, 100; Vermont, 98; Massachusetts, 100; Connecticut, 108; New York, 99; New Jersey, 111; Pennsylvania, 108 ; Delaware, 100; Maryland, 106; Virginia, 112; N-rth Carolina, 104; South Caro lina, 87; Georgia, 90; Florida, 83; Ala bama, 111; Mississippi, 116; Louisiana. 85; Texas, 89; Arkansas, 103; Tennessee, 114; West Vilginia, 107; Kentucky, 103; Ohio, 97; Michigan, 101; Indiana, 83; Illinois, 95; Wisconsin, 60; Min nesotta, 72; lowa, 92; Missouri, 111;' Kansas, 109; Nebraska, 93; California, 95; Oregon, 100.

(Atlanta UeralcL.] Onr contemporaries of this State have contained frequent references of late to the investigation which Gov. Smith is making iuto our bond troubles under resolutions adopted at the last session of the Legislature. The time has not yet arrived to enter into any discussion on this subject or indeed to venture on any statement other than one of very general character. It may be stated, however, that the investigation being made both here and in New York is very thorough. What the final result will be, it is impossible to state at this time; indeed, the field covered by the investigation is so wide, and embraces such a long period of time, that it will require some weeks yet of steady labor to bring it to a satisfactory conclusion. Not only the bonds issned and en dorsed daring Gov. Bullock's adminis tration have passed under examination, but all the bonds issned for the last thirty years, and the payments of interest on the same, mast be passed in review. Any attempt, therefore, in whatever quarter, to foretell the results of this investigation can be considered only as mere specnlation. It may not be amiss to remark that the i investigation in New York is likely to j prove fruitful of important results, and i that a flood of light will be thrown npon I the history of onr bond troubles. The people of Georgia will be glad to learn that the Hon. C. C. Kibbee, of the Sen ate, has been spending the Summer in New York city, and has rendered im portant service in this investigation. He returned to the State a few days ago, but, as might be expected, is quite reti- I cent in regard to the results of his labors. , Colonel Kibbee states that the credit of j Georgia stands very high in the city of New York at this time, and the people, i bankers and others attribnte this to the management of her finances by the Gov ernor and the Democratic party in power. In proof of this, it need only be stated that while Georgia seven percent, bonds are worth par to-day in New York city, the bonds of the other Southern States | are worth from fifty-two down to ten : cents in the dollar. i Flood and O'Brien, the great bankers in San Francisco, are said to have had $10,000,000 in gold locked up when Ralston, their opponent, failed. There is a rnmor, which comes from nowhere in particular, that ex-Speaker Blaine is going to take the stnmp in | Ohio. He has been very qniet since the i Maine election. Local and Business Notices.

We must admit that the general trade out look Üby no means as favorable as we had reason some weeks since to suppose that it would be at this date True, there has been a very perceptible increase in the demand for staple commodities, exoepting perhaps, Com But the business is by no means what it should be with the increase’ in receipts of cotton at this point. There is much to be said, however, in regard to the matter. Very little of the money sent from the North to move the cotton crop in this vicinitv finds l-e way into general circulation. In a few hours after it reaches Augu-ta, it is sent out to the country to pay the planters and brin ' more cotton forward. As the cotton picking season is now at its height, the planter bnt "seldom comes to the cirv even to purchase supplies, hence the money is for the present, at any rate, locked up. But we can be consoled by the fact if it be possible to find consolation in the know! edge, that the majority of other markets, in cluding the great trade centres of the North and West are even duller than our own. The New York market presents unaccountable dul - ne?e, and there is great anxiety on the part of merchants. They evidently have bought and imported with expectation's far beyond what they are now realizing. We are convinced that the indications here are far more encouraging than tiny are elsewhere. A prominent mer chant of this ci y, who has just returned from the North, Btated to us ou Thursday that he came home in a despondent mood. Even thing looked so bine in the marts of the North and East, trade was evidently so stagnant that he expected to find Augusta practically dead But he was agreeably disappointed on his arrival to note the cheerful appearance of business men and the manifest improvement in trade. His despondency vanished in the face of this, and he is hopeful for the future. He declares most emphatically that trade is by long odds, better in Augusta than in any of the cities, large or small he has visited. The truth is the prosperity of Augusta has a solid Inundation. We may not hurry and scurry through life as do the commercial men of some other places with more pretensions but less basis, but all trade is on the square, and slowly but surely advances. Country merchants are generally discovering that it is to their interest to pur chase stocks here, hence business in a whole sale way is constantly gaining in importance. — Some of our wholesale houses are among the largest in ftie South, and their customers come from nearly every section of Georgia and South Carolina. This who esale bu -mess is not confined to any branch of trade. Dry Goods, Groceries, Medicines, Hardware, all have their share of trade, A good omen for the trade outlook, is the large and rapidly increas ng freight business of the several railroads having termini at this point. For the last two weeks all the em ployees have been kept busy, and shipping and receiving clerks have hardly had tiaje-dsi. breathe. The number of trains coming in and leaving daily iB very large. Muoh of this business is Jhrough freight, but a large pro portion is local. As far as the general grocery market is con cerned we can have but little to say this week There are absolutely no changes except in Hour Western having declined 50c a barrel.— The supply is ample for the demand, and there is no indication of a change in the statue. City mills are doing a good businesa. principal ly in a loGal way, am} are making a very supe rior article. Their quotations tqr all brands remain the same as last week. Bacon is still very firm at our previous quotations. The supply is li.ht and the demand excellent, ’the Western meat market is quiet and steady. Corn is dull and drooping. As usual at this season, there ia very little demand, and hold ers find few buyers even when disposed to make liberal concessions. Western advices report au improved feeling and a liberal de mand, especially from the "shorts ” Oats and Wheat are'qugt. Mixed Oats have declined from 75 to 65 cents per bnofrel. Red rust proof, produced in thiH vicinity, remain at previous prices, $1 25 per bushel The demand for Bagging and Ties continues to be brisk. As will be seen by reference to the figures below, quotations have not been changed, nor are they Jjkely to be for some time to come. To day tberjs }g a liberal sprinkling of country wagons on Broad street, and grocers, espe cially, appear to be doing a good business,— What wholesale business is being transacted is iu a more quiet way, and does not appear npon the surface. Dry Goods. The new additions to our stock of Dry Goois are coming in daily. We notice some very pret ty goods among the late arrivals. Prices are HOI, 1 ];!"'llat easier to correspond with the Now York market. People in the country will find it to their advantage to trade with the dry goods merchants of Augusts, Vfe feel assured that they can do far better here than if they made their purchases in New York themselves, aud had to add traveling expenses and freight to the cost of the articles. Financial. There is still no dUspQsifiog on the part of the Bauks to transact much business in the way of accommodation paper, and particularly in that which works something on the perpetual motion principle. There have been some few transactions with good business paper as a basis, but these have been few aud the amounts comparatively small. All the money the banks have on hand is required to move the cotton crop, and it goes, with some excep tions, in that way. Th beßt gilt edged paper of any otßpr character is not desired just at this time. Tho prospect is. however, that the market will be much easier ip a short time. During the week there wore sold in the city of Augusta 3 751 bales of cotton. Rutting this on a basis of 12J cents for Low Middling, arid estimating tlin weight of each bale at an aver age of 450 pounds, we have 1212,769 2o as the total amount of cash brought hits the city du ring the week through this one channel. But as we stated above but a very small per pontage of this large sum went into general circulation in this community. It hardly reached the city before it started out on another journey.

[From the Neve York Bulletin. September 22.) So far as actual cotton has been concerned, buyers have retained ali former advantages and even made a little further gain : bat the previous monotonous downward tendency gd contracts was checked, and one or two slight ’ pulsations of excitement shown. Local influ ences have contributed largely to fluctuations lon the speculative position, the general state of feeling as regard crop, consumption, etc., remaining much the same as last week, though the “boh” side naß presented one or two new • points" which, if not stimulating, have in some quarters served to infuse a slightly more cautious spirit aLd checked pressure. The Bureau report, though as a rule construed fa vorably. is claimed to show less encouraging features ou close inspecti n; some few storms have actually occurred at the South, and the cold weather here generates 6ome fears that the more northern portion of the cotton belt may be caught by the frost. The -bears,” too, have nearly all obtained a go and margin for profit: ami this, coupled with the previous ly noted indisposition to remain too largely “short” of the market, induced a goodly amount of covering and a consequent reaction whenever the demand became a little sharp Aside from the speculative manipulations we find everything to have been excessively tame ” xporters handled nothing, the consumptive demand fell away, aud foreign advices were, as a rule, discouraging, and faith in a large and early marketed crop was unshaken with a large proportion of the trade. In fact, while the tendency seems to lean strongly toward the belief m a full supply and moderate, cau tions consumption of cotton, rhe shrinkage on values already established and the experience of last year have a tendency to prevent the formation of a very extensive “short” inter est. “Spots” have been in very limited de mand, and the cost for the week is fully 4c lower, with no great strength shown at the de cline. No hing whatever was oalled for on foreign account, the small amount of stock re quired by exporters being secured much more readily at the Southern ports and on better terms. The spinning demand, too, was very slow and much smaller, the redaction in cost failing entirely to stimulate manufacturers into purchases beyond their most absolute necessi ties. The main point of depression, however, has been the more liberal offerings of new cot ton from pier at rates constantly running }a}c below those nominally ruling ou stocks in store. Old cotton was, to a certain extent, most valu able, but desirable selection proving difficult in view of the broken assortment, buyers gave the preference to new at the difference in the co-t. Offerings have bean pretty free both here and to arrive, and it is intimated that considerable amounts are sure to oome forward in time to meet September contracts. For future delivery there has been oonsider able irregularity, with at times quite a feverish tone, and on the whole a somewhat better state of affairs fur the selling interest than last week. Thp first turn for improvement was obtained on the hints of a strung combination to “corner” September, and this month in consequence at once strengthened. Then came colder weather here, reports of storms at the South and a reduction in the orders to sell, which carried a reaction into the later mouths and infused a more general strength into the market; as a general rush to cover took place. The change of tone, however, was almost entirely local, few orders from the Sopth coming to baud to take in contracts, and no purchases being made for investment that we qould learn of beyond the ordinary operations based on expectations of a quick _tuin whenever the market becomes unsettled. Past rec'SfpfiThave continued pretty well up to expectations Tue crop report from New Or leans. plaoing the figures for last season at 3,827.845 will, according to previous under standing with the National Exchange, be ac cepted as official. We hear little comment, except that some of the “bulls” insist that is simply absurd to look at these figures and ex pect the liberal increase of production which will be necessary to bring the present growth up to the aggregate claimed as sure by so many who seem to have already forgotten last season's mistakes.
