GALVKSTON, TEXAS, |
Fatusdat Evening. December 19, 1874. f
The buii went down clear this even
iog—the first time for a week. There
wad a very hard rain last night, dwin
dling to a steady drizzle, which held out
till noon to day. It has faired off this
evening, with a brisk Norther, and a de
el'uing temperature. Telegrams from the
northern portion of the State report a
heavy fall of sleet and snow last night
and this morning. What with the rain
the snow and the thaw, which will fol
low, roads will be bad for awhile, which
is apt to tell upon the cotton movement,
The wretched weather of the past
week has pretty much stopped all out
ward movement of cotton, and indeed all
handling, beyond delivery to the presses
from the wharves and railroad. Largo
receipts are still unsampled, but have
been placed under shelter as effectually
as practicable in the pressure.
In our general market orders have been
ample, but shipment of goods has been
mainly suspended—-awaitiDgfair weather.
Our cotton market shows light sales
but prices are firm and rule higher than
those of either New Orleans or New
York, as a comparison of the respective
quotations will demonstrate.
The Cotton Exchange telegrams re
port the New York Chronicle's estimate
of the crop. It appeared in the issue of
this morning, aud amounts to an aggre
gate of 4,300,000 bales. It will, of course
be kept in mind that these figures in-
clude the three items of receipts at the
ports, the overland movement to the
mills, and the Southern consumption
The two latter were large last season
and it is thought will be larger this
season. Still the aggregate figures are
in excess of expectation, despite the re-
cent gradual expansion of crop estimates
in all quarters. The details will be
awaited with interest.
The New York market for futures
which went up with <f*jerk yesterday,
came down with another jerk to-day.
Whether to-day's pulling-down liad Its
impulse in the Chronicle's estimate—or
how far it may have been influenced by
it—the advices do not indicate. The
sales, however, were large—very large-
amounting to 51,300 bales. There are
it seems, some buyers left, as well as
sellers. *

[For the Sunday News.
To Jewel's miniature.
*t1« strange that Art can mould a face
Ho sparkling aud divine,
So eloquent with thought and grace.
Ho beautiful as thine.
I almost see the warm blood seek
The blue veins on thy brow,
And glow upon thy pearly check,
So life-like eeemest thou.
1 love thy dark cye*s-sunny glee;
There's something in its glance
That tells thy heart is fond aud free,
And full of love's romance.
The dimpled lake—the sky's soft glow.
Can no such charms impart.
As those which thou dost mutely throw
Around the burning heart.
And o'er that bosom, white as s^now,
Entwined in thy rair finger.
Dark, dreamy, ebon ringlets flow.
As If tboy loved to linger.
Ami blest as heaven are they blest.
Rocked in their sea-wave motion,
Like shadowh on the tiny breast
Of some sweet mimic ocean.
Oh, eouldst thon break the silent spell
That binds thy lips so long,
Kacb soft, enchanting tone would tell
That thou wert born for song.
To me art's melody but mocks,
For in this gilded South
The softest, sweetest music-box
Is womau's rosy mouth.
How fair—these daughters of the sun,
The black-eyed, sparkling things—
These jewels of the Holy One,
These angels without wines.
One golden look, one crystal tear,
One sweet, emphatic word,
Is worth the wreath of Ind so dear,
Or all we've seen or heard.
Thou are not old, bright tropic gem,
A bud yet half in blossom.
Too young to leave the parent stem—
Too frail for man's rough bosom:
Thou yieldest but a star-like light,
But only wert thou woman
I'd brave the battle's fiercest fight
fc'or one bright smile so wanton.
Rodbin.
THE GALVESTON MARKET.
There is a fair demand, but offerings
are light—the bad weather greatly hin-
dering sampling and movement. In-
cluding 40g bales, which changed hands
after business hours last evening, the
sales have been only 919 bales—six
brokers participating in the business.
The Cotton Exchange quotes the mar-
ket "quiet and unchanged."

"That Handkerchief."
Tuesday evening a young man called
on a gentleman acquaintance whom he
expected to find alone, but was ushered
into the presence of live or six ladies.
i'nder ordinary circumstances this unex-
pected array of beauty would not have
awed nor perplexed him, but just at the
time he chanced to be laboring under a
huge chew of tobacco. As the juice of
the vile plant hi led his mouth, he glanced
around in search of a spittoon. No such
article was visible. He grew warm, and
questions addressed to him lie could only
answer wilU a nod or a shake of his
head. Just in the tobacco began to steal
out the corners of his overburdened
mouth, he bethought him of his handker-
chief. Hastily drawing it from his pocket,
he raised the other hand and pointed to-
ward the window. While the ladies
were looking in that direction, trying
to ascertain what had attracted his atten-
tion, he quickly squirted the load of to
bacco into his handkerchief, folded it up
and placed it in his pocket. Thus re
lieved from the cause of his embarrass
ment, and feeling thatb his strange con
duct had excited the surprise of the par
ty, he exerted all his powers of mind and
manners to remove whatever unfavora
ble impression Jiad been created. He
chatted and laughed, told stories, perpe
trated puns, and was so agreeable that
the ladies wished he could be with them
always. His previous singular demeanor
was forgotten, and as jibe and jest leaped
from his lips each fair listener inwardly
wished that " heaven had made her such
a man." He told a joke on himself, and
it was a good one. They all laughed
loud and long, aud he as loud and long as
any of them. IIe laughed until the tears
came in his eyes, and he pulled forth his
handkerchief and wipiid them away.
That handkerchief!
That tobacco-laden handkerchief!
In a moment of forgetfulness he wiped
away the u-arn of joy with that reeking
handkerchief'
" He has broken a blood-vessel!" the
startled woman cried, as, awifUwinged
with fear, they Hew for assistance. When
thev returned their entertainer was gone
lie is still gone, and anxious friends are
dragging the river for his body, as he
was last seen flying in that direction
Col. s. m. Thompson, who commanded
the regiment in which Abraham Lincoln
