1'oanoke Lands. There are upon the
banks of the Ilomoke River as fine farm
ing lands as can be found anywhere those
of the Mississippi bottoms not accepted.
While a great portion of it is not at all sub
ject to overflows, unfortunately there is
much that is ; yet, there is no doubt, it
could be reclaimed, by the means of levys
at as small an outlay as were many acres
that were once covered by tho freshets of
the Mississippi. These lands having for
eenturies been subject to periodic inunda
tions, the consequence is that by tho de
posit of the sediments of the water, the soil
lias become very deep and the strength of
it is therefor inexhaustible. Why people
will therefore move to distant places to
seek lands upon which to farm when these
acres of the richest, which with a little out
lay, could be placed in a stato of cultiva
tion, is more than we can see. We hope
public attention will ere long be directed
to this fact and the habit of emigrating in
order to obtain rich lands will cease.

Christian Wuxff. In the Cemetery in
Beaufort, on a marble tablet, one an anti-
ue looking head piece of grey, moss cov
ered stone, surmounted by a marble cross,
is tho following inscription :
"To the blessed "memory of Christian Wulff,
Captain in the Royal Danish navy. Born in
Copenhagen, in Denmark, July 31, 1810; died in
Beaufort June 7, 1856."
" He is not here but risen."
The deceased is represented to have been
n pious member of the Lutheran Church,
a good officer, and a noble hearted man.
Jle arrived at this port, accompanied by
his sister, Henrietta WuhT, in an English
barque, in June 185G, intending to travel
through the United States. Being ill, he
took lodgings in Beaufort, at Mr. King's
Hotel, where he received kind attention
and medical aid. But he hourly grew worse
until the appearance of black vomit, m pro
lusion, disclosed a frightful case of yellow
fever, which soon terminated in death.
lie was buried near the Methodist Church
where he still reposes.
The oluely broken-hearted sister returned
t her home in Copenhagen, and sent out
lie monument for the tomb. As time
t' lied on, her sorrowing spirit yearned for
the spot where her brother slept ; and in
i."s, she piously resolved to make a pil
grimage to hi tomb ! She was a good
'hoar, and wrote English well. In a let
ter dated Juno 1858, to a lady in Beaufort,
-lie said : I need not tell you how often
my thoughts are wandering to that far dis
tant place where my dearly beloved brother
reposes in God, under the shadow of thai
weeping willow you planted at his head,
and the rose bush at his feet."
In August of that year, at Hamburg, she
embarked on the ill-fated steamer Austria,
for America. The steamer had four or five
hundred passengers on board, and when
far out at sea took tire and was burnt to the
water's edge ! The details of that disaster
form one of the most awful chapters in the
history of the sea. While tho names were
spreading Miss WullV, and a lady who was
traveling with her, seeing they must make
choice between a horrible death by smoke
and tire and a less painful one by drowning,
'hose the latter, and, embracing each other,
they leaped into the sea together and were
-ecu no more.

1 Anotheb Outrage. It seems as if we
shall never be permitted to close the record
of villainy daily occurring in our midst, and
the country around. Last night our towns
man, O. R. Colgrove, who has recently
been carrying on a farm near Trenton, re
turned to this place, bringing with him all
his stock and household goods to avoid
their utter destruction by the desperadoes
who are now infesting the country. We
learn that this movement was hastened by
the following circumstances: Mr. Colgrove,
having heard threats of attack upon his
premises by the robbers, made some pre
parations to receive them by constrnctinga
stockade, and enclosing his stock, fce.
True to their promise, tho ruffians to the
number of 20 or more, made their appear
ance yesterday morning about one o'clock,
and prepared the way for an advance on
the corral by setting fire to Mr. Colgrove 's
cotton gin and outhouses. We understand
unginned cotton to the amount of bales,
was destroyed with the buildings, and oth
er property very much damaged.
When will these outrages be stopped ? A
company of Regulators would be of service.

Butter. Perhaps Xorth Carolina con
sumes every year 300,000 worth of Xorth
crn butter, if not more. Our Western and
mountain counties can produce butter
equal to that of any country in the world,
both in quantity and quality, if our people
will learn to put it up equal to the Xorth
em dairy men. Why will they not do it V
It is easily learned, and they should go at
it at once. They can supply the East, on
better terms, with as good butter, if they
will. Wo urge upon them this duty. The
firkins used by the Western people are not
fit for butter. It should be put up iu tho
best made and tightest keg--. Butter, to
be kept, should never be washed. If clean
liness is not observed in milking, keeping
the milk, and churning, fcc., all the water
you can get will not cleanse it. Water de
stroys the ilavor, and removes much of the
oil or substance of the butter, ami renders
it much easier to spoil. Keep the hands,
the vessels, the cow's udder, the churns,
ami everything else, perfectly clean at all
times; let the milking and churning be re
gularly and promptly done; when the butter
is made, clean it ent irely of milk and motes,
thou have clean, good, merchantable salt,
and use enough of it, and pack it down in
air tight vessels, always covering it with
good brine, and you will have good butter.
Keep everything clean and you will need no
water to clean, and spoil, your butter. We
hope to hear from our friend Kimberly,
and others, in the West. Pal. Sentinel.

TUc Radical Threatening Civil War.
We publish this morning an interesting
letter from Washington, in which are col
lated facts and data in reference to the pre
parations of the Radicals to plunge the
country into a civil war. The array of tes
timony is perfectly appalling, and must re
move all doubt, if any exist in the public
mind, as to the fixed determination of the
Radicals to again inaugurate war in this
country. The statements made are no idle
assertions nor mere street gossip, but are
made up of the actual sayings and doings
of the Radical chiefs. They are from the
lips of those fanatics and the evidence
which they have furnished.
First, we have the rasoiutions of Con
gress urging upon the Governors of the
several States to equip the militia, passed
in a mysterious manner. Then came the
threats of the Radical leaders ; the declara
tion of Bingham, of Ohio, that he would
give himself no rest until he had drawn a
bill of impeachment of the President.
Then we have Butler travelling around the
country reading his bill of indictment, and
instructing the Radicals how to proceed
with the trial, declaring, at the same iime,
that if the army and navy took sides against
them, the army and navy and the Cabinet
would be wiped out of existence. What
he meant by this can be seen by the facts,
a little further along, that Butler has been
appointed Commander-in-Chief of the
Massachusetts Militia, and that Governor
Fenton is removing the Conservative Gen
end in this State, and so manipulating the
brigades and divisions that he can place
Loyal Leaguers in command. Then there
is the additional fact that General Logan
has organized a large force in the West to
march on Washington, and the tact of con
certed action among the Governors there
in procuring armsaud ammunition. These,
with the demonstrations and threats of re
sistance of the Radicals at Baltimore, fur
nish conclusive evidence of the real pur
poses of the Radical leaders.
We also seo that as their plans mature
they grew more and more bold. Sliella-
barjror, of Ohio, urtres the application of
the axe, while Wendell Phillips comes for
ward and insists that the present Congress
shall declare itself a perpetual body and
govern tho country. In addition to this,
the public have already been apprised that
Boutwell stated that the Radicals of Massa
chusetts, in nominating General Butler for
Congress, hud declared for impeachment.
Merchants and business men, capitalists
and bondholders ! are not these facts suffi
cieut to convince you of the danger that
threatens the country unless these Radicals
are arrested in their fanatical course

DEDICATION OF TIIE STONE WALXi
CEMETERY AT WINCHESTER.
From the Baltimore Gazette of Saturday we con
dense the following account of the interesting
ceremonies of the dedication of the Stonewall
Cemetery at Winchester, and the re-interment of
the bodies of illustrious Confederate dead:
Thursday last will long be remembered as one
of the most interesting to the people of Winches
ter and of the great Valley of Virginia that ever
occurred, not excepting even those of tho recent
past. It was the day net apart for the dedication
of tho Stonewall Cemetery, a spot selected for the
burial of the remains of the Confederate dead who
were scattered about that region of countrv, as
well as for tho repose of the bones of some of those
who fell early in t be late unhinnv conflict, and
whose lives were endeared to the people, amongst
whom General Turner Ashby held a consmcuousH
place. On the day before that appointed i' r the
solemn and grateful ceremony the people flocked
into Winchester from every direction, and on
Thursday morning the roads to the city were so
completely blocked that thev were almost impas
sable. To show the zeal of rhe people in an otter
ing which lay so near their hearts, ah business
I was suspended that everybody might have an op
jportnnity to participate in t ie ceremonies of the
occasion, from the Vallev bevond the Bluelhd;-e
I aud from, the Boanoke country t lie people came,
' and many of the fair daughters of Virginia hesita
ted not. to c-litab tho mountain passes on horse
back for a distance of forty miles to lend their
presence to the K-tuc and testify tht-ir admiration
for those who had did in their iK-"t i;i-f;. To all of
them the name ot Anhbv i-? u household word, and
mothers brought thou-httlo children with them,
and with borrow pointed to them the tenements of
the fallen soldiers, nlole the strong men bent in
grief ovtr the relies of the lest.
The venerable man and tho aged matron; the
strong in the vigor of manhood and the tirths
partner of his joys and sorrows: tio; young man
and the gentle maiden; the littln children, all voi e
there, and while a becoming solemnity .-eenied to
pervade the very atnuovtiere, there wa.s manifest
a pride in the nobility ot trie live of those whose
fall they had assembled to omuiemorste, ar.d
ivhoH graves they ln-.n mi-u to s-trev. with the f;iir
est flower of the. valley and wa'er with their
tears.
TUK AKIUVAl. or THE liK .MAINS.
Oil Vt'ednes.I iv afternoon the remains v.cre re
moved from O.iarlestown, where they had been
re-conincd for burial, and carried under a strong
etcort to Winchester. Colo-. el hobei t W. 1'aylor,

Ashby whilo living, accompanied the remains aud
deposited them iu the Episeopal Church, at the
corner of Water aud Washington streets, i hat
evening the ladies of Winchester, assisted by some
of then- sisters of Maryland, visited the church and
laid upon the coftins wreaths of white roses and
evergreens, typical of the purity of the lives of the
fallen and the undying reim-iiibrance in which their
deeds will bo held.
On Thursday morning, about s oY:oek. the doors
of the church were thrown open to afford an ap
pwtunitv for ail to look at what covered the mor
tal remains, and in a sherfc time the street was so
densely packed that- iu was dhbcult. t. get within
many yards of tho church. The lady of Grnt ral
Turner Ashhy occupied a position immediately in
front of the chancel. It was covered with black
cloth and elaborately ornamented with implements
of war and silver lao; aud fringe. .Near toe- upper
part of the church was a silver plate, b..;iriug the
following inscription :
" Gkneuai. Tcrnku Ashhy,
Born October 1S28. kill d in a heavy skirmish

To the right was tin; coi'tin of Captain Richard
Ashby, m all respects like that of his brother, and
with plate bearing the simple inscription :
"Oai'xai.n Kichaud Ashhy."
To the left was the colli n ot Captain C. F.
Sheetz, of plain mahogany, but like those already
mentioned, decked with flowers. The plate was
inscribed :
"Captain C. F. Sheets,
"Company F, 7th Virginia, cavalry, C. S. A.,
Killed near irout lioyal!'
The remains of Captain .Sheets "were to be taken
to Hampshire county for burial.
Immediately behind tic; remains of Gen. Ashby
was the cotiin of Lieutenant Colonel Thomas Mar

Citizens in carriages aud on foot.
The procession thus formed moved out Water
street to the Stonewall Cemetery, a stiort distance
east of the town.
THE CEMETEKY.
The cemetery occupies a beautiful level plain
with a slight depression to the South side, atio
covers an areaof ah uit ten acres. It is laid out
with much taste, and from the plat of ground ap
propriated for the dead of each State rises a cen
otaph, a plain marble- shaft, about ten feet high,
and bearing the name of the State. All those
cenotaphs were handsomely ornamented with en
twined wreaths of ev. i green from the apex to the
base, and so closely blended as only here and
there to show the pure whiteness of the marble.
The MaryLnd plat is on the East side of the cem
etery, and, like all the cullers, is not yet complet
ed. There were, however, several boards, bear
ing the names of the deei, and among them are
the names of Hodson, Brown, Cushing, Bailey,
Riley aud others, and around the name of each
was a wreath of cedar. To the left of the Mary
land plat is the place lor the burial of the dead
from Delaware. It contaius but a single grave,
that of Lieutenant 11. H. Dale, who died from the
effect of a wound on the 2jth of SSepternbcr, 1861.
All this work was done by the fair daughters of
Virginia, and well may the old Mother State be
proud of her daughters.
CEREMONIES AT TIIE OKAVES MASONIC.
As the procession reached the entrance to the
cemetery, it tiled to tiie left by a broad avenue to
the graves prepared for the burial of those whose
obsequies they had assembled to perform. The
lodges gathered around the grave of General Ash
by, when Worshipful Master Carson delivered an
eloquent and appropriate address. The beautiful
and impressive Masonic burial servi'-e was then
performed.
KELIGIOl'S CEIIEMONIES.
At the conclusion of the Masonic ceremonies,
Rev. Mr. Hough, of the Methodist Church South,
offered prayer, which was followed by the reading
of a portion of scripture by Rev. Mr. Meredith, of
the Episcopal Church. RtvV. Mr. Dash, of the
Lutheran Church, read the hymn, "I would not
live alway," and the benediction was pronounced
by Rev. JNorval Wilson, of tho Methodist Church.
The ceremonies thus closed at the graves, they
were tilled, aud attention was directed toward the
stand, whither the people flocked to hear the ad
dress ot General Henry A. Wise, and it was esti
mated that ten thousand persona, including many
ladies, were present.
REPORT 01" THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.
Colonel F. W. D. M. Haliiday, of the commit
tee selected to collect tho dead and place them in
the plats of the States which they severally rep
resented, read the report of the Executive Com
mittee from which it appeared that since the 22d
February last they had collected 2,494 dead from
numberless localities, enclosed them in suitable
coflins and given them decent burial in consecrated
ground and within a protecting enclosure. These
dead have been collected from an area of fifteen
miles radius about this town, at an expenditure of
time, labor and money readily imaginable. In the
removal every precaution has been taken to ob
tain all the information possible about everv man,
to be embodied in a permanent record. Tl. inter
ring them every grave has beeu marked by a num
ber corresponding to its place in the record, so
as to prevent any mistake ot identitv, should
even headboards be destroyed or defaced.

From tha Baltimore American ire take the fol
lowing, which is the fullest report of General
Wise's address that we find :
Fellow Citizens : A mourning people meet in
the midst of graves, the dust of which is more
saefdd than that of kindred,- to do homage to the
vi. mes, to commeorate tne deeds of their heroes.
1 came to condole with aud comfort the living.
Search among the ashes or the dead for examples
how to survive their death, how to live after them,
now to nounsn tne seed or indestructiole truth.
Alas! who are the dead? The buried, or rather
the bruised and broken survivors ? The blessed
buried are passetl the fear of future tempest or a
wreck on shore. Those who escaped are still ex
posed to both. The buried aro now immortal,
while we survive to honor their names and de.Vs.
They need no monument or mausoleums of earth.
No hostile hand can strike them now. Eternity
has sealed their testimony to the truth. Posterity
will not permit human history to be perverted to
their shame. Their death onh proved that they
were preferred of Heaven. When they fell, they
were not dead We come not to bury the dead
but to touch their turf. They have no tombs, and
we are ourselves alive again to bravo misfortunes
as they braved death, and make ourselves worthy
tf thtlr sacrifice. Their mortal foes shall bund
their shrines. Their friends are too despoiled to
more than mark the place where they lie all around
them. Their enemies are gathering the whiten
ing bones of those they repulsed and slew to raise
mou ds to eleeils made memorable, to memoirs
made worthy of mention by their tteel, and every
stone shall teil the story of their wo3 to eve y
pti5scr-by. Now do wo want their examples more
than during the war, and need to heed them more
than if we needed Gideoji to bear us through the
flaming of tho red hot war. We need more than
a Moses now to bear us up in dungeons of defeat,
and lead us out byways, to prove us worthy of
the great trials with which our honor is entrusted.
I invoke, then, the mighty Confederate dead, and
lo! instantly the vaiu.nt clay of this consecrated
Valley of Virginia becunen in.-pir d with motion
iu every atom.
A grave in Lexington, trembling, quickly gives
up a life-breathing spirit in a great example the.
sauctifled SUmewall Jackson ! A very Michael of
deliverauce his exampk' speaks to us of the in
tiinsic sterling stamina of his moral greatness.
liis Christian heroisii:, the eternal adamant of his
character and nature; his supremo faith in God,
faith in immutable moral laws and principle;, and
in their might to prevail in tho end against p.!l op
poring power- iheso made him sioiictrud. From
tiiis example, which rises iijt before us with ils
immortal fact, 1 reverently ask council here, amid
these Confederate braves. Hero the speaker
apostrophized the charweter oi .lackson and con
tinued. 'lho Stonewall example is not only ad
monishing, but is cheering and full of hope. It
puts to shame not only the dead Machiavellian
dogma that a faith, the truth of moral principle
can ever or could ever be submitted to the arbi
trament of arms, to bo conquered by the mere
force of numbers; but it scouts that worse than
immorality which maligns a cause worth Stone
wall Jackson's lighting for, and worth his dying
for, by calling it a lost cause. If crucifixion could
lose a cause, the Captain of our salvation was con
quered. He died that the cause might Jive, and
trom that day the blood of the martyr has been
the seed of the church. If our cause is loat it was
false; if true, it is not lost; first victories cannot be
term- d linal results. There were many errors iu
our ways ef going out to iai". Those errors leil.
The li ut ha for which we f light ;' ;c. Winlnt
waiting tor their resurrection or their coming iu
this hour of darkness and of t!-;u'ot to all w ho,
recreant, would abandon faith; to all who, despair
ing, would abandon hope; to all who, tempted,
would resort to forbidden ways; to all who, timid,
would shamefully succumb; to all who, impa
tient At this point the speaker addressed the old Vir
ginians, assuring them that old things must pass
away, even the glories with the weakness of tho
past. Then, tinning to the young Virginians, he
promised them that a day was dawning bright be
youd any that gilded in the past the hills and val
leys of the land of every man's pride. He in
quired if they, too, impatiently exclaimed, "What
better can we do V" and said that they must strive
to bear their lot without reproach or guilt; that
they must h.ive patience, and that nothing could
be worse t'niu dishonor or desertion. If they an
swer that they are poor that Jackson failed that
his faith wa.s impracticable and an obstruction
they made a great mistake. Hero the Governor
made a long appeal to the young men of Virginia
not to emigrate ; to take their fortunes as they
are, aud lioin the present small beginnings again
work forward. He asked them where they would
go if they leave Virginia V Would they leave the
L'niU'd States? And if they supposed the United
Mates not free, where else on earth did they ex
pect to lind a people as free ? He exhorted them
to a life of work of constant, unobtrusive, quiet
labor. If Virginia's sons will but serve her and
save her, she shall, indeed, be one and indivisi
ble ; a new Virginia ; greater, strouger, grander
than was old Virginia.
The ora'or then stated his views as to the cau
ses of the slow progress of Virginia as compared
with the oilier States. In brief, these causes were
that slavery created a landed aristocracy antagon
istic to the progress and repellaut to immigration.
Proceeding in his argument he stated at leigth
the advantage of iuvitmg immigration now that
siareiy was destroyed, ile spoke further of the
great mineral resources of Virginia. Tho only direct
allusion be ma le to auy political measure was his
reference to tho division of the State and the crea
tion of the St.it; of West Virginia as "the bastard
child of political rape." Nevertheless, ho said,
there is still substance enough left in Virginia to
insure her honor and more than restore her pre
eminence. He concluded as follows : We catch,
then, the inspiration of this faith, this hope, this
life and strength, from the halo of these heroes.
The great good that they have done lives after
them. Blessed be their memories. I would, if I
could, call them back to me other than in their
example. 1 divine not why I or any were spared
when they were taken, unless to bear testimony to
their truth anil excellence, their innocence and
inviolability, and to tiy to live worthy of their deaths
and to be the more ready when their Master calls
to meet them in Heaven. Bring, then, no cypress
here! Bring laurels to these consecrated graves.
May virtue, the only amaranthine flower on earth,
keep beautiful their turh Truth, the ouly lasting
treasure, be their monument. Mourn with no
funeral dirge, but with exulting anthems swell
tneir note of praise. "
Manufactures or the South. The Co
lumbus (Gu.) Enquirer has tho following
encouraging account of manufactures in
that State:
The Augusta factory on the 1st inst., de
clared a dividend of rive per cent. As it
was declared at the end of the third quar
ter of the year, we presume that it was the
third quarterly dividend of the year. A
profit of only two cents a yard on the cloth
manufactured by it for the year ending 31st
Augustlast, (6,410,000 yards,) would amount
to about twenty-five per cent, on its capital
stock, ($600,000,) and we may very reason
ably conclude that the profit is that much
per yard. The first prices for cloth of this
factory's weaving are lower than those of
the same description of goods made by
Northern factories, and a considerable pro
portion of the cloth of the Augusta factory
is sold in the Northern markets. These
facts ought to satisfy every doubting Thom
as of the profit there is in manufacturing
cotton at the South, where it is grown.
Stgxs of a hard Winter. The phenom
ena which usually presages, according to
the notions of the very observant in such
matters, the approach of a hard winter, are
becoming very marked as the season pro
gresses. Hives are overflowing with honey,
the husks of corn are declared to be of ex
tra thickness, and tho furs of animals are
pronounced exceedingly rich and heavy. It
is observed, too, that the rats are traveling
eastwardly in great numbers, and that the
squirrels are making arrangements on an
increased scale for the storage of nuts.
A hotel in Syracuse agreed to board dele

REVIEW OF THE WlhMIXGTOS MAR
kets for the week ending Thursday, Nov.
1, 1866.
Tuepentine. Since the close of our review on
Thursday last the market for this article has ruled
firm, and with a steady demand from shippers and
distillers the price advanced on Tuesday 1020
cents, with sales at $ 75 for soft, and $2 87 fot
hard, ft bbl. of 580 lbs. the market closing firm
at these figures. The quantity coming to market
is unusually light for the season, and confined
mostly to small parcels, and for the week just
ended foot up only 689 bbls., as follows :
tail demand. We quote Cow at $1
oufhel hicr. Clean is in moderate remiest.
aud st-k light. We quote at HJQIS cents for
Carolina, and 13i14 cents ft lb. for India.
Hay The market is better supplied, and de
mand not so brisk. About 713 batos Northern re
ceived for the week, of which 300 bales sold to ar
live at $1 30, and 113 do. sold from wharf at $1 40
ft 100 lbs.
LuM.-vit Biver. Wo quote sales of only two
rafts iao. ut 100,000 foot) at $18 50 ft M. for floor
ing boards.
Lime None received for a few weeks, and tho
stock in dealers hands is setting rather low. Wo
quote at $1 25 ft cask, in lots to suit.
Potatoes Are in limited request, and market
very well supplied. We quote Irish at $3$3 75
ft bbl., and Sweet at 80 cents $1 25 ft bushel.
-'oultby Is in demand at high prices. We
quote live chickens at 3045 cents, and grown
fowls at 5000 cents each.
Pea Nuts Aro in demand, and as yet but few
of the new crop are coming to market. We quoto
small sales from carts at $3 ft bushel.
Pbovisions The receipts of N. C. Bacon con
tinue meagre, and tho supply ou market is very
Lght ; there is, however, but little demand at pres
ent, and the sales have been confined to small lots
trom store at 2324 cents lor hog round, and 25
26 cents ft 1I. for hams, as in quality. WeBteru
cured is in rather better request, and with meagre
receipts the stock has beconio materially reduced.
We quote from store at 2021 cents for shoulders,
aud 2223 cents 3tf lb. for sides, as in mianfitv.
Laud There is a fair demand for North
Carolina, and market almost bare. One or two
small lots received and sold at 24 cents in bbls.,
and 25 cents ft lb. in kegs. Northern is in mod
orate stock, and slow of ealo at 2222J cents ft
Tb. Pobk There is only a small stock of
Northern on market, and we notice a fair retail
business doing at quotations in table.
Salt The market continues to be moderately
supplied, and the demand is unusually light for
the tea son. We quote onlv small sales during tho
week at $2 G0$2 75 ft sack for Liverpool ground,
and 7580 cents ft bushel for Alum. A cargo of
2,000 bushels was received on Tuesday from Turks
Island, but not yet sold.
Shingles Aro brought in sparingly, aiid wo
note some demand. Wo quote Common at $2 75
$3, and Contract at $4$5 ft M.
Timbeb Has been brought iu slowly for the past
week or two, and there is little or none at present
on market uusoid. There is some demand from

Sriuns Tubpentine. At the time of closing
our review on Thursday last the market was in a
depressed condition, aiid prices had a declining
tendency. On Friday there was considerable dull
ness minifest, and buyers refused to operate un
less at lower figures, which was acceded to by sel
lers, and sales were ma do at 7072 cents. This
dull feeling continued throughout Saturday, but
on Monday there was a firmer tone to tbe market,
and the decline in price was recovered, and par
cels foucd sale at 75 cents. On Tuesday a further
advanco was obtained, and 80 cents was paid for
101 bbls. The market since has ruled quiet and
inactive, and no sales have taken place, sellers
generally holding at figures aboe the views of
buyers. We quote sales for the week as follows :
Friday 124 bbls. at 70 cents ft gallon.

Rosin. The market during the earlv part of
the week ruled unusually firm for all grades, and
prices were fully m aintained up to the close of
Saturday's transactions, and if anything were
somewhat higher for the finer qualities. The
market on Monday, however, opened very quiet,
and the transactions since have beeu materially
checked, owing in a great measure to the extreme
high prices, which has caused buyers to operate
cautiously. The receipts for the week have been
moderate, and the stock, though still light, is be
gining to accumulate in receivers' hands. The
sales for the week are as follows : Friday, 100
bbls. Common at $4 75, 350 do. No. 2 at $5 50r
$6, 230 do. No. 1 at f 7$10 37i ; Saturday, 40 do.
Common at $4 75, 170 do. No. 2 at $5 75$6, 186
do. Ko. 1 at $10, $llf 11 50 ; Wednesday, 178 do.
Common at $4 25, $4 75$5, 69 do. No. 2 at $5 25
$5 50, 145 do. No. 1 at $8$9.
Tab. The market has ruled rather quiet for
the week, and closes at a decline of 10 cents on
highest quotation of last week. The sales are
onlv 259 bbls., as follows : 21 bp's, at $3 ; 101 do.
at $2 95 ; and 13 do. at $2 90 ft bbl.
Bkef Cattle and Sheep Have been brought
to market sparingly for a few weeks past, and the
supply in butchers' hands has become very much
reduced ; it is, however, fully adequate for present
wants, as there is only a limited demand. We
quote Beeves on the hoof at 9lt conts ft B., net,
and Sheep at prices ranging from $2$3 each, as
in quality.
BahueLs. The receipts of empty spirit barrels
have been very light for the past two or three
weeks, but we notice a full stock of former arri
vals remaining in dealers' hands. The demand is
meagre, and only occasional small sales are ef
fected at $3 75 to $4 25 for second hand, and
$4 25$4 73 f r new, as in quantity and quality.
Beeswax Is brought in slowly, and is in mode
rate request at 3 2 34 cents ft lb.
Cobs Meal Is in moderate supply, and we
quote sales from the granaries at $1 50$1 55 ft
bushel.
Cotton. There was a fair enquiry for this arti
cle from buyers in the early part of the week just
ended, and parcels found ready sale when offered
on market at a basis of 36 cents for middling.
For the cast dav or two. however, the advices
