Uarnwe|| Market Ihiring Week K r d- ing October 16, 1877. A comparison of the market quota tions with those of the previous week show that the only changes were a alight advance in the price of cotton and a deelire of 15 cents a bushel on com. Cotton was quoted as follows: Lint, ordinary, cents; middling, 10 cents; seed cotton, 3 3-4 cents, as compared with 8 7-8,' 9 7-8 and 3% certs, respectively, the week previous. Corn declined from 86 cents to 70 cents a bushel. All of the other quo tation*'Were the same. 4, Barnwell, /- ('apt. Lancaster Declines. ' Capt. J. W. Lancaster declined the nomination for the Colonelcy of the infantry regiment, stating that “my official duties as Sheriff of the county are of such an arduous character as to require my constant employment, which would unfit me for the proper discharge of the office of Colonel of the regiig.'nt. . . The people of the county have already placed me in a high, honorable and responsibly position, and I do not think I ought to ask them to do more for me, at present.” The yellow fever still rages in Fer- nandina, Fla., and the victims are suffering for the want of medical aid and proper nourishment. | The Aiken correspor dejrt of the Columbia Register* advocates the re vival of the whipping post.: ~ ...i - * C. E. Lartigue and C. C.’Bush were nominated for Lieutenant-Colonel of infantry. § ; Can You Afford to Sell Your Cotton Un- der the Cost of Production? * If not, why do you not hold your cotton tor n short while until the distress cotton is ahs.irbed? Each year at this time thousands of boles of cotton are dumped on the maiket regardless of price. Do you realize that after deducting the coat of juat picking ard ginning a bale of cotton, the farmer is getting about 10c per pound for it. Do you think this condition can last? V ** During the past few years, it has not been profitable to hold cotton—but do: ’t forget—people held cotton when prices were around twvnty two cgnU. There is quite a difference now, with cotton soling in some itterior towns below fourteen cents. If you wish to hold any cotton. I will advance you ten to twelve cents per pound upon it. Fifty cents per hale per mbtth covers both stontg.) and insurance. You wrill see by these rates that if you iield your cotton {or two months, it would only amount to 81.00 p:*r bale. Should you ship any cotton to roe, you may rest assured when you ordered it sold, you w-ill get the correct weights, grades and prices. ‘ . CHAS. G. HOUSTON COTTON FACTOR AUG18TA. GA. dot Saloon.
