April 9.-—Tile market is simply wallowing in a sea of un certainty, with no signs of a breeze from any quarter to give it steerage. Sentiment of all sorts' is plentiful, hut no disposition for definite expres sion. Talk of large acreage and mill curtailment, with a large ens of sea son surplus has created a strong bearish feeling in professional cir cles, but the delayed start increasing danger of daninge from insects and later weather checks selling, especial ly with near month premiums hold ing firmly in spite of the number of bales this year. Selling agninsl the crop is still a long way off. and with the trade still absorbing offerings on a scale down, an oversold condition could easily arise. Buyers, however, feel under no compulsion .to follow advances, and prefer to wait on developments be fore increasing commitments, and continue to neccpt moderate profits when- in sight, and take chances on rcDdnoing to advantage. The market is small beer and skittles, nnd afford,' no peg on which to bang an opinion. POST AND FLAGG. The longest pastorate in the Pro trstant Episcopal diocese or reun syl vania is held by Rev. J.
