tst deciine to (Iiiite low prices. Under
ese circumstances the market gives way
>wly but steadily, and will not change I
itil a sharp drop inl the receipts ctlies.
The following very pertinent remarks 4
-e made on the Crop Prospect:
We are in a decided minority, but think
is crop may prove very much ksm than
irrent estimates. No one can tell until
eceember or January, for receipts are not
It then any indication. The weather has
een alnost the reverse this fall, of last
ear, then the rain and late fall added at
-ast one million bales to the crop. Trhis
ear a hot dry September was followed by
ury extensive killing frost in October and
cry low tem perattre. Last year pickiig
lntinuled until spriig, and no killing frost
ntil December 8th. Last year's crop had
good start, thii year's crop a poor one;
ist year a wet fall, and cotton growilng un
I December; this year very dry, with kill
ig frosts October 3d to October loth in
i1ay fSectioiis. 'The popular idea of this
rop is now about ^ million bales.
Here is also an instructive paragraph
rom what they have to say about Trade
'onlditionls:
It is s:iil usiness with the East Ir.dies
voutld be better if they were not afraid of
0ile more Wild silver legislution by the
ited States. We have managed to buy
,50o,0o00 tolls of silver, put it in our
aults, and still prices for silver decline!

mr govrnmment !? t will colltilue to de

he laws (if supply and deinand. Other
:ountries are reportedi as doing a fair busi
ws-; ill Manchester, but the(- peneral trade
>itlook is worse than a year ago.
Inl regard to the prospect ill general the
ircuillr concludes its follows:
As stnted last mllonith, tle statistics are all
igainist high prices, anld we (ale add but lit
.le to wihat was then said. The planters in
he south are marketing their cotton very
'reely. fearing tr) hold and maike such se
veI e losse. as a ey did last sealsoll. 6o long
is receipts are so enormous, there catm be
ao perillitmlenit improveinent. As our ad
vices indicate that planters will sell freely
lgainl at anly advance of Ce. (d4 4:c., anly iml
l)rovellelt is likely to be temporary tititil
somethiig more decided can be learned
ailout the crop. We do not see anything
Ilt lower piices ahead, with ai commercial
crop of 7. million biles. By a comier
(ild crop we mean111 the ujpiamity of cottonl

It will be interesting to compare the price
of these articles with thie price of the same
Lroods at this tine. It may be a little
comfort to t.he farmers to realize that
cotton has been down to the unremu.
nerative pfice that it is now. But then
there were no guano bills to pay out of the
cotton crop. -Esley Democrat.
The royalties from Moody and Sankey's
famous ''-ospel 11ymnus" have amounted
to $1 .200,000, every penny of which has

The getherin' uv the stuff is hever,
The tryinest timo uv all the yeer;
And whilo good people pay thier lills
The bad man don't kou neer.
The good man buys our mete and
bred,
And never duz lie run,
But bad men wishes we wer' ded,
So de(l, we kudu't dun.
The erly spring brawt sich a krowd,
We kudn't heer it thunder;
What meones all this sudden ebiange
.From good to bad, we wvonder?
That had man sed he'd surely py
.lie'd kumn right up to taw,
But now he goes sumO other wa
And never shaiks our paw.
We sold him hioniest, 8(olid goods,
We tride to diu our best,
Ini fact we sold him all we k:oubl,
And niow-hie's sumuwhar ini the

That had man se(l he surely kiim,
. Grate teers stud in his iz'.,
lie sed lhe had no bred at home
And told1 lots uv other lize.
He sed lho liked our wa the bes;t,
(We know hie liked ou;rban)
But when thle thing kum lu aL test,
That mian, his flighit had takeni.
If you'll sta gon, 01e "vagabonie,'
And never will kmun bak,
