Bad Weather Largely Responsible for Unfavorable Conditions. New York, March 7.-R. G. Bun &T Co. '5 Weekly Review of Trade tomor? row will say : - Unsettled weather was tile most un ??satisfactory feature of the business jfs?tuation. A sudden thaw following an exceptionally heavy snowfall p?o- i duced freshets and floods. Manufac- : turing and transporting interests ! ^suffered severely, and consumers were urgent for shipment of delayed goods, while great -quantities of merchandise became stalled in transit Prepara? tions for an enormous spring trade continue undiminished. There is still some uneasiness regarding the labor situation at the coal mines, and at Fall River there is disagreement as to the length of a cut of cloth, although increased wages are assured. Not only is there no improvement to ; be recorded in the iron an a steel out? look but floods in the Pittsburg region added to the pressure by completely o?osing many plants and damaging v such .costly machinery. Recent destr?c ]~ tion by the elements makes an unusual ;:||demand for ' structural" materia^ and on spot business "buyers gladly pay premiums of $6 a ton above list prices. Coal shipments jiave been curtailed to such an extent'that deal? ers' supplies are low and quotations very strong. Cotton goods are well ^sustained, the stronger raw material-j " ravins: all the advantage to sellers, but there is .much uncertainty as to the labor situation. ~ This tends to.make the mills conser-.l .vainve regarding the acceptance of con- j "tracts for future delivery. / AH staples^ steadied ;and some rose ? .^sharply, the net changes for the wok amounting to a considerable advance. Speculation was quiet with many / guesses as to. the coming report of isxm reserves. For the ? .first* time in j this crop season cotton showed an ad? vance over the price at the correspond : ring date last yearj and it is significant 0tha& the^Jhigher figure failed to attract f- pbeavy selfing at the south. Failures for the we?k numbered 176 in the United States .against 208 last year, and 17 in Canada against 26. last year. " Of the Greatest Fight in the Con? gress rn 1858. Writing of the late TiJlman-McLau rin scrimmage in the senate The Mes C^senger referred to other similar demonstrations in the past. One of the most exciting-indeed, the most " exciting incident of all in the congress I f?vr?s the fight in the time of-lawrence j M. Keith, o^ South Carolina, who was a game man of. passion. Galusha A. Grow; of ^n^^lvania, was the other gamecock .and ?h^jr:l.began th e j Ifcrow. It was-on february 2nd, 1858. ^Ehe celebrated 3u?fice Lamar, of Mississippi,RubeUcDavis, of the same Instate, and many* ;?anks were in the] flmelee. Lovejoy, John * "Sherman, ?Poter,_ofv Wisconsin of | ^Illinois, and so on. During an all iXirigiit session it occurred. A north? ern writer ; of siron^ anti-southern pre? judice, writes of it. in the Chicago - Record-Herald of the -3rd; inst The I starting of the fuss is thus given : p; ; *'About 2 o'clock in the morning Oalusha A. Grow,: ? who happened ai the time to be out of his seat ?nd on the democratic side of the - house, ob ieeted to John A. Quitman's .being allowed to speak. >v "If you are going to object return to your own side of the house, said Keitt, of South CaToHna, roughly. - *' * This is a free hall, answered Oro w. ? Every man has a right to be where he pleases. ' V 'I want to know what you mean ; by such an answer as that said Keitt, : coming nearer. " '1 mean just what I say. This is a free hall, and every man has a right ? "to be just where he pleases. " Keitt, his temper getting the bet? ter of him, seized Grow by the throat, saying: 'I will let you know that you area-black republican puppy. ' - V";"" 'I shall occupy such place in this hall as I please,' replied Grow, knock? up. K?itt's hand, 'and no negro-driver ' shall crack his whip over me. ! That started the trouble, Keitt "$rrabbed Grow by the throat, Grow knocked his hand off, and when Keitt came again he ran into a sterling right swing that floored him. Imme? diately the hitherto sleepy house was in an uproar, and everybody rushed : into the melee determined to do damage. "The republicans rallied about I Grow. Elihu Washburne, a short man, tackled Craig, of North Carolina, who was tall, and while Craig was trying unsueeespfully to knock Washburne out with the^flail-like movements of I his long arms, the Illinois man butted him in the stomach, which tactics, according to tradition, jarred Craig's terrapin supper." Then the scrimmage enlarged and .those named, above, and others, took a hand. Lamar and Barksdale waded in. A funny thing happened as relat? ed Barksdale wore a wig. Wash? burne grabbed it thinking to get the man's head under his arm. But, be? hold it came off and the blow went wild. Lamar and Owen Lovejoy, of Illinois, had paired off and were pom? meling one another in great shape. They were the last men to be quieted. . London Punch took the scene for an epic It was an attack on "nigger drivers" with the usual ignorance and venom. . Keitt duly apologized af? terwards, as did Grow explaining, etc. We give a sample of the Punch poetic inspiration : ?*' 'Come on, Grow,' Keitt cried, 'you black republican puppy;' Come out on the floor like a man, and darn my eyes but I'll show you.' Him answered straight-hitting Grow, Waal, now, I calkilate, Keitt, No nigger-driver shall leave his plan? tation in SouthJCarolina Here to crack his cowhide around this child's ears if he knows it. ' Scarce had he spoke when the hand, the chivalrous five fingers of Keitt, Clutched at his. throat-had they closed, the speeches of Grow had ;* been ended.'' Blood was hot in those days and in three years the north and south were tussling and the north backed by Europe got the weak south in its iron grip and the great contest ended. Wilmington?Messenger. Why Cannibals Eat Men. All children who are now going to school have read about how Mr. Stan? ley went into the jungles of Africa to hunt Mr. livingstone, of whom most all treated him very kindly. Now that Mr. Stanley no longer travels in the dark wilds of Africa,. there are other men who . do go, and sometimes meet just as strange things as did Mr. Stan? ley. The party under the command of Mr. Woelfell, which recently went into the same country, the dense forests back of Ivory Coast, in West Africa, found a number of cannibals of differ? ent tribes. They live only about 120 miles back .from the coast, and are near a French post, and it is strange, too, that they are so. near,. for canni? bals, have seldom been found in Africa so near the coast. As a rule, they do not live within 500 miles of the ocean, and most of them stay still further away. SpBHl . When the white men who were ! with Mr. Woelfell found these strange black men, and asked them -why "they ate ""human "flesh instead of beast \ flesh,. rthey replied that ". men usually I wash themselves three times a day, and, therefore, areanuch cleaner than beasts, which are never washed." '".JJ -These natives have guns and can get powder from liberia, but as .lead is most always hard to get, they often use stones and gravel in place of bullets. , ?I - W;heu : Mr. Stanley sent Captain Coqu^lhateto garrison the' station he ^had?est^Mshed. he found theN people always* ready to defend their practice . of ?eatingrnen. > "Thisis horrible," said Mr. Coquii hat, one day to a chief , who was at dinner. fr?On the contrary, it is delicious wi th-salt," was the quick reply. A Printer Greatly Surprised. . **I was never so much surprised in my life as I was with the results of using Chamberlain's Pain Balin," says Henry T. Crook, pressman of the Asheville,. (N G) G?zetter UT contracted a severe case of xKeumatism early last winter by getting my feet wet. I tried several things for it without benefit. One day while looting over, the Gazette, I noticed that Pain Balm was positively guaranteed to cure rheuma? tism, so bought a bottle of it and before using two- thirds of it- my rheumatism had taken its night and I have not had a rhen I matic pain since." Sold by Dr. A J. China. -- ww ? m o----' . A flew Way to Raise Money. Five years ago a "Picture Club" was organized "in a New England town. Twelve members, six of each sex, were enrolled. Each member owned a camera, or 'borrowed one. It was agreed that during the summer each .would take as many photographs of various spots in the town cr its vicin? ity as possible, and would try to in? duce others outside of the club to take pictures. * The best one hundred were selected, made into slides, and an evening selected" when, in the Town Hall, the club showed the pictures on . a screen. The admission was "fixed at twenty-five cents. The "Picture i dub Exhibition" has now become the "event of the season" in the town. The capacity of the hall is taxed, and the sum of money raised each, year- is always a handsome, one. The money is given to some special town object. March Ladies' Home Journal.

For the Complexion. * The complexion ^always suffers from billi ouse ess or constipation.

Mich., before he be? came an actor. He began as a "cub" reporter while still a student in Mich I igan university and finally advanced until the editor left him in charge of the paper on one occasion when he took a trip to Detroit. Two important local items were to be printed, one relating the sad demise of a young man of prominent 'family, iw^other telling how a traveling sales? man had jumped his board bill at a local hotel. "Mac" had to write the headlines for these stories, and, after j scratching his head, he evolved "Pass? ed Away Quietly" for the obituary story and "Jumped His 'Board Bill" for the hotel beat "Mac" was proud of his achievement and, lighting a big cigar, leaned back in his chair and be? gan to realize how it feels to be an editor. The man who "made up" the paper scanned the headings, transposed them, and the friends and relatives of th? deceased read that Le had "Jumped His Board Bill," and the bereaved landlord learned that his late guest had "Passed Away Quietly."-New York World Autumn Haze. "Autumn haze," says a meteorologic- ? al expert, "is dust composed of the fin? est particles of soil, dead leaves, smoke or ashes from wood fires, salt from ocean spray, the shells or scales from microscopic siliceous diatoms,-germs of fungi spores of ferns, pollen of flow? ers, etc. In the still air of damp nights these dust particles settle slowly down, and the morning air is comparatively clear. During the daylight the. sun warms the soil, which heats the adja? cent air, and the rising air currents carry up the dust as high as they go. .Under certain conditions this layer of dust reaches higher and higher each day. During long, dry summers in In? dia it reaches to a height of 7,000 feet with a well defined upper surface that is higher in the daytime than at night ?"he reason why we have more of hazy weather in autumn is because there is then less horizontal wind and more ris? ing air." .A Home Beyond tile "Grave. Dan, a colored man, was employed as porter in a mercantile establishment in a town in Florida, and his duties re? quired him to have the store swept by 1 o'clock in the morning. He had been late for many mornings, and on the sixteenth consecutive time his employ? er remonstrated with him thus: "Dan, why can't you get^here on timer' "Well. Mr. L.," said Dan, "yer see, I live the other side of Mount Hermon cemetery and can't always get yere on time." "Why in the world do you live so far from your work?" said his employer.. Without a moment's hesitation Dan responded: ; .f-Yer see, ifs dis yere way. Mr. L. I'll be hones' wid yer-I wants a home beyond the grave." .Carlyle's View of Aprons. Carlyle in his "Sartor Resartus" was able to find a deep philosophy in aprons. "Aprons are defenses against injury to cleanliness, to safety, to modesty, sometimes to TOguery. From the thin slip of notched silk (as it were the em? blem and beatified ghost of an apron) winch some highest bred housewife has gracefully fastened on to the thick tanned hide girt around him with thongs, wherein the builder builds and at evening sticks his trowel, or to those jingling sheet iron aprons wherein your otherwise half naked V?lcans hammer and smelt in their smelt fur? nace, is there not range enough in the fashion and uses of this vestment?" Ancient Sacrifice? to the Sea. The navigators of antiquity, to whose imaginative ignorance the ocean seem? ed peopled and beset with chimeras dire and (supernatural agencies of all sorts, used often' to sacrifice human lives to the mysterious wat?r gods. It is regarded by tradition that Idome neus. king of- Crete vowed to sacrifice to Neptune the first living thing he met after escaping from a storm, and this happening to be his son he fulfilled his vow religiously. Medea nearly be came a sacrifice during the return voy? age of the Argonauts. An Anticipated Pleasure. A congressman of Mississippi, after making a speech in opposition to the expensive funerals of congressmen, says he received a letter from a con? stituent saying: "When you die, John, we won't ask congress to pay the ex? pense of your funeral. You've got enough friends down here, John, to give you a respectable burial, and we would take pleasure in doing it." What Was Scarce. Once a distinguished Russian grand duke found himself charged 20 francs apiece for hothouse peaches at the old Cafe de Paris, in the French metropo? lis. "Are hothouse peaches so scarce, then, even in midwinter?" he asked. "No," replied the maitre d'hotel, "but grand dukes are." The Worm. She-Yes. I am sorry I married you: so there! He-Oh! You were glad to get any? body, I guess. You were no young bird when I married you. She-No? But, considering what I got. you must admit I was an early bird.-Philadelphia Press.

Funny world we live in. A man wba has six horses standing idle in a stable walked two miles ont in the countrj on a little matter of business a day ol two ago. while another man who had no horses, and very little money hired a team to j:o the same distance. This was an actual occurrence and shows the perversity of human nature. He who has the facilities for driving pre? fers to walle, while he who could mucli better prefer to walk and has no team goes and hires one. Men are crazy to own a team, and it soon becomes a I bore to give the horse necessary exer? cise. It has always been thus and, w? presume, always will be. . Effect of Gravitation. If a man weighing twelve stone were to be transferred to the moon, the weight of his body, measured at least by the attraction which the moon would exercise upon it, would be re? duced to about two stone. If his mus? cles and his frame remained the same, it would seem as if he' would be able to jump over a wall twelve feet higlj on the small globe without any greater exertion than would be required tG clear a wall two feet high on the earth Practically Starving. "After using a few bottles of Kodol Dys? pepsia Cure my wife received perfect and permanent relief from a severe and chronic case of stomach trouble." says J K Holly, real estate insurance and loan agent, of Macomb, Ul. "Before using Kodol Dys? pepsia Cure she could not eat an ordinary meal without intense suffering. She is now entirely cured. Several physicians and many remedies had failed to give re? lief." You don't have to diet, eat any good food you want, but don't overload the stomach. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure will always digest it for you. J S Hughson & Co. , A politician estimated that as much as $12,000 had been paid the United States government during the past two months in postage by various candi? dates in Georgia. There has been a great bulk of .' campaign documents from many of the candidates and 2-eent stamps are always used. The gubernatorial candidates, the legisla? tive candidates, men who want to be Congressmen, sheriffs, country tax col? lectors and other things are using the ? mails, despite the fact that some peo? ple do not like the personal letter style. Postal clerks on the trains have been given lots of work to do, arid in places where there are letter carriers the pouches are very heavy.
