luiiitlsen private tonus. Only a row et tlie
IMcRera nre willing tomake known tlie ox ex ox

ket Is reported ilrin, nnd tlie '81 crop contin
ues te euro excellently well. A number of
foreign dealers nre in town looking at It.
Packers are net as cnmtuunicallve as they
might be, nnd it is only oeeaslenally we hear
what is going en, but we de knew that tliore
is n packer In this town who lias Held seme
1,200 cases, and another seme 000 within the
last three weeks
Tlicre is some sampling going en, but net
generally. What has been sampled comes
lully up te expectation.
The into rahis ha e helped tlie growing crop
wonderfully j and yet in sonie sections the
leaf, ospecinlly Hint which was blown ever
by the heavy winds, is ropertod te be dam
aged by rust, and If alter the heavy rains
another spell ofextromoly het weather should
ensue, It Is foared llie inlchier will oxtend.
As yet we have heard of only a low plant
ings thus alTcclcd.
.Some of the early planted llavnnn seed has
been cut and is reported te leek well, though
rather light in weight. The medium plant
ings hae mostly been tepped, whilosenio of
the late are yet qtilte small. We haveheard
of ene planting that was net set until the 28th
of July I It will require very faverable
weather te m.ike n ciep of it.

700 cases lbSI Pennsylvania wero bought
this week by two New Yerk cigar manufac
turing linns. One-lmlf was bread leaf, the
ether Havana seed ; the fermer sold nt llljj
cents, the olher at IS cents. Theso are the
llgures given by the sollers. The bnyers
said nothing. The fact is cigar mauiifactiir
crs nre very reluctant in making any el their
purchases known.
Noneof llie new crops have a settled repu
tation as yet, and sheultl any of them turn
out with ii "black cye" later en, the manu
facturer who had invested is net benefited by
the reputation of being a manipulator of such
Nteck. A large business In seed leaf would no

nil crops such can be found, but tliore is no

weather, the gloss will net disappear; dark
cigars net being any lnuger In demand, a
naturally sweated leaf is desired. In eonso eenso eonse

te wait with their purchases till tlie new

In the nioautime they bridge evor with odds

The business In binders though gees mer

We condense the following from the 7'o 7'e 7'o
liacce Leaf
Seed Leaf The ninrket wxs dull and
drcarv again this week. Very low buyers
wero here irem out of town, and city buyers
woie spiring In their purchases; intact, a
holiday reeling seemed te pervade the mar
ket, ileperts Irein Connecticut nnd Penti
fiylvania that hail and liiln storms had dene
fonsldernblo dninage te the growing crop
failed of ellcct en the market. Jt used te be
that reports of sci leus damnge te the grew ing
tobacco would have an iiilluence, but the
market new appears te be imperturbable. It
is net susceptible te reports and rumors as of
yere. Sampling Is progressing rapidly, and
packers will Ixi en the anxious seat, se te
speak, until they knew definitely just hew
their tobacco turns out.
Havana Killer nre selling moderately ;
in all J 00 bales wero taken at from 00 te 51.15.
The geed business of last week was fellow ed
this week by apathy en the part et buyers te
de business. The market remains firm, how hew how
ever, and will probably disclose mero lilb
next wcek.
.Sumatra 250 bales wero dlsposed of nt
from $1.20 te Sl.00. The market has main
tained n pretty even tenor, and about the
usual amount of business was transacted.
Neverat this tlme ofthe ) cur has the market
been bare of old tobacco. We have heard of
ene sale of 100 bales, which paioel is, per
haps, included in the nbove total.
Western Lear Fer the p.vst week the sales
have been meagre, embiaeing, perhaps 75
hogsheads 50 ler expert. The Regie men
nre busy shipping, Instead of buying.
Virginia Leal We can ropeit a fair de
main! this week for Virginia tobacco. Some
fair sales were made of old smokers, cutters
and bright wrappers.
Plug Jeblwr-uind grecers say buyers are
in town but have net yet get down te busi
ness. Tliore Is a prospect of fair trade befere
iheend of tin) month.
Smoking A geed demand Is reported.
Cigan Ilusiness has been moderately ac ac
tive. Sales ii f Peed Lear In New Ymk In .Inly.
The reported Kiles of weed leaf in this mar
ket In July amounted te 0,072 cases, 11,010
cases less than in June. In July, 1851, the
sales wero 5,700 cases. In June nnd July,
thlsyoar,le,35l cases have been sold, whoreor
:l,058 wero for expert, leaving 1 1,200 for man
ufacturers. New, ourNew Yerk cigar man man man

about H 1,000,000 cigars, which at the lowest
ostlmate required the equivalent of 10,500
cases or seed lear, leaving 3,71m cases for sale
te manufacturers clsewheie.
This figuring, of course, proves nothing of

Frem the llaliluiiuvllle Oaietle,
There has been mere activity hi the mar
ket the past week, than compared with the
jast two or tliroe weekx Webear of about 225
cases being bought nt prices ranging from 2
7 eents.
The stand of the present crop was nover
belter than nt present. Owing te the wnrm
woather with frequent rains, It has given it
an opportunity te make rapid growth, mill
tlie iietd generally, Judging from what we
hnvn seen, nnd the reports thnt reach us, are
very uniform. Much of the crop Is new In
top, being well forward for the season. The
prospects at present nre oxtremoly llatterlng.
IMnrllle, Vu., Tolmrce Mnrket.
Within the past ten months a llttle evor
30,000,000 pounds of leaf tobacco have been
sold In the wnroheusos at Danvllle, Vn., for a
sum aggregating evor M,000,000. Ker the
week end ed August 1 nearly ene nilltleti
pounds was sold at nu nvonigeof f 15.15 nor
hundred txwnds. The Jtcgistcr, of that city,
claims "thnt no ethor leaf market can equal
Danvllle In the nvornge prices," nnd the
llgures quoted would seeni te justify the
claim.

We nre pleased te roperl nunlher geed
growing week for tobacco. The line showers
of Saturday Aug. 1st, wero appreciated by
overy grewer, and the continued cloudy,
drizzling wcather is doing wonders. With
such woather we de net hosltate te say that
net a wblle vein can be produced. In seme
localities the fields have sullercd for rain,
but growers nre new satisfied thnt the rainfall
has been sulllcient te carry the crop through
te maturity. Yet we think that in tucse
localities the crop will be light It has
spindled and blossomed tee low evor te make
n heavv crewth. A rlde threutrli the vallev
shows many line ploces, but mero that nre
small nnd will net obtain their growth until

"Tliore Is ene ilnt that scorns te cscape

cerning llie seizure or the public domain by
American ami British corporations had been

Nearly six months have passed, and
w e nre net aware that nn v of the corporations

settlers have been shot while attempting te

sent Is heard ; all discords are hushed mid
the solemn lessen or this Ilre and or this
death Is reverently considered in the spirit
of his last Invocation of harmony upon his
countrymen. It Is the greatest or his vic
tories, for it is tlie lruitlen and ihe sum of
them. First of all men is the poacemaker 1
Let us hepe, let us believe, that he wears the
crown of peace, and let us houer his memory

'Geu. Grant's uame will be remembered
through all time with tlie most renowued or,
theso who have fought for the principles
upon which our froe race builds its institu
tions with Nelsen's, with Wellington's,
with Washington's. This Is net the time te
attempt any minute analysis of his charac
ter, or te estimate his mental abilities. The
results speak for thomselvos. He was first
in the shock of the cenlllct which shook the
Wostern world, and he omerged victor. He
conquered poace, and In his death that bono beno bone
licont conquest Is completed and cenfirmed.
And his death was In all respects worthy
et his great fame. It lias given, indeed, te
the large, horelo figure, standing out upon
the bread canvas; of history, a tender hale,
which before it lacked. Through all the lin
gering weeks of an especially torrlble disso
lution the spirit of the man rose steadfast
above tlie terments of the flesh, and his
nndertnkinr' lii these last dread, mements te
wrlte a book for tlie pecuniary benefit of
his faithful wife, is te me, an incl incl
dent se Improsslve, and from the stand
point of the husband and the father, se
deeply teuchiug, that I knew net hew te
dwell upon it He relt that he was dying
peer, his fertune wrecked, his salary about
te coase with his failing breath. What mere
could he de? Then began a struggle mero
horelo than anydoed of his martial lite,
Theso who have written knew with what in in
expresslble diillculty that sort or work is
dene under any kind of physical allllctlpn.
Yet did Grant, with Death sitting undis
guised at ids threat and tightening its
grasp every hour, push en the dollcate lalier
or composition, racked by nnxiety of mind
and augulsli or body, until the book was
dena Then and then only, when the last
proer sliest had received a painful revision,
was he entirely willing te dfe. It bocemos a
grateful poeplo te see that that long agony et
cruel effort shall net have been undorgeno
in vain."
