Atwood -Violett & Co. say: About two weeks ago we es timated the amount to come into sight by the end of December. 5,600,000 bales; the exact figures, according to the New Orleans Cotton. Exchange, are 5.400,000. It is what is to come into stent- from Jan. 1 to Sept. 1 that is now worrying the high crop esti maters. The planter has insisted this year upon making, per haps, 500,000 less than their minimum estimate df Dec. 24, and while it is a great pity that the South cannot accommodate estimates, they will have to stand iL Our New Orleans' house re ports stock at thirty-six of the. principal towns and cities in Mississippi at 30,110, against 53,384 last year, while Tyler, Texas, reports 700 stock unsold, against 6,000 last year. The usual thing by those who are bearing the market is immedi ately to discredit such reports. Uur ban Antonio telegram to-day says that eighteen of the largest towns in that section show stocks of 6,000. against 11,- 000 last year. The movement and tbe stocks ot twelve months ago were un usually small, and to fall even under those figures shows a condition of things', if it applies .to the whole State, which confirms the smaller estimates . from there. We have, through thick and thin, stood up tor the correctness of our cor respondents, and though the movement for some time has shaken the faith of many as to these impressions, and at the same time made us doubt, temporarily, the existence of a small production this season. The circular of I. E. Glenny & Co. says: The upward tendency of prices appears to be caused by an anticipation of an early falling off in receipts and a certain amount of speculation which has re mained dormant of late, seems to have entered the market within the past few days, but each advance brings out sellers of long cotton, and the demand is freely met on all strong markets. McElroy & Co.'s circular says : The new year has opened with 5,400,000 bales in sight. The trade, looking back over the experience of a number of years past, appears to have adopted 2,000,000 as the maximum possible receipts for the balance of tbe season, and, therefore, 7,400,000 as a maximum crop. When it comes to a minimum, however, there is a wide diversity of opinion, and those who contend that the movement from now on, owing to the extremely favorable fall, which permitted an unusually rapid marketing, must be below the average of recent years,- are supported In their belief by the late advices from many sections. These, with remarkable unani mity, indicate that there is not only a less amount to be sent forward in the way of stocks held at the towns, but also a smaller proportion remains on farms and plantations to come forward. Whether these reports are true or not, the general conviction that the move ment will show a decided decrease will undoubtedly have a tendency to cause all who are able to hold back what they can and in this way bring about a de cidedly smaller movement for a couple of weeks to come.

Archie Boyd is well-known for his ex cellent rendition for four years past of the part of Joshua Whitcomb in the Old Homestead, -and his new play is one worthy of him. " If was written ex pressly for him by Charles A. Krone. It a quaint domestic character picture of everyday life, rich in simple pathos and humor, and entirely devoid of the' .stilted situations, and strained ef fects that characterize the average production of to-day. Free from all morbid sentimentality, it appeals directly to the human heart and Its noblest sen timents, thereby indirectly conveying a moral lesson in a manner that cannot but be delightful and instructive to the most fastidious and exacting taste. Like the "Old Homestead." which has been pronounced a model of American plays, the situations and language, though drawn from the conditions and vernacular of everyday life, are at times elevated to poetry, while the plot has an organic connection rarely iou'nd in any other play of its kind. It will be presented at the Opera House to-morrow night. A Small Tire. A fire occurred last night about half- past 10 o'clock in an unoccupied one- story frame dwelling, on Queen street between Eighth and Ninth. The .house is the property of Mr. S.
