Ralugh's sidewalks nave . just been greatly improved and they are now an, ornament and a pleasure and nothing detracts from a smooth white granohthK sidewalk so much as a big -" d ash of tn.lacco jiiuce eprtukled at In--' , ' tijrvals ira the canter of the walk. .Often it is very annoying to ladles.

The quota tion for muddling m the locaJ market , was 7 cents a pound to-day. Two ft: weeks ago it was 6. Compared with .-- n year ago tlie current quotation' is '2lA ' ents a pound higher.

EstiimatSm; the crop at 1,532,0000 hales, whkh Is the latest esli- , mute ot cotton experts, the value would "? lie over $50,000,000 greater than that, ot last year, which amounted' to 1174,!t0 ' Iiales and sold for $282,772,987. . The shortage of the crop in Texas, the greatest cotton growing State In the Union, is conservatively esttmhted at 5C - tier cent compared with last year. Cot-; v ion is relatively higher at New Orleans,-: tavuunah, Mobile, Charleston and other - v Southern ports than, it Sa at Saklmorv, . and reports from those points indicate v that the demelnd is more active than it -has been for years. Mills in somie iuts of the South ate - paySMg f rom to cent a pound more ; for cotton than quotations at ports. The nills m that section will oonsume more outon than ever before, and the export ' demand also promises to he briBk.

The atrengirh of the raw mtatcrial has oenefitted the market for cotton, goods, . ind prices of the ieedamg iniakes are about 2b per cent higher than they Were six. ; months ago. The demand is also more active and a further advance fe prices is not unlikely. r t.'i". - " DETER DYING WITH' TONGUE.
