NEWS OFFICE, 1
Wkdnksday Evbsiso. Dec. Sr. 1876. (
Trade opened quiet this morning, and
a heavy rain in tho afternoon put a
complete stop to all out door business.
In the general market prices of pro-
visions remain the same.
Hides are easier and 20c. is an out-
side figure on ths strictest selection of
dry. New York mail dates are only to
the 22d, when ali leading authorities
concurred in reporting a falling off in
the demand and tanners buying more
sparingly. Still it was admitted that
holders were making no concessions
and Texas dry were quoted at %'i to
23Jc. for Galveston, and 24c. for West-
ern Texas stock.
The cotton market showed some an-
imation to-day and, on the whole,
prices aro decidedly stronger. Re-
ceipts at all ports were small and prices
of both spot and futures advanced in
regular procession to-day. Liverpool
was steady for spot and closed firm for
arrivals, although at the opening the
latter was off l-32d.
DRUMMING.
The New York Journal of Commerce
says that the tax on druminers is clearly
unconstitutional, and adds:
"Drumming" undoubtedly lias its
peculiar merits and advantages as an
auxiliary of trade. New York mer-
chants depend upon it to a large extent,
and we gladly encourage every effort to
repeal or set aside by judicial decrees
those illiberal laws which impede the
march of the commercial traveler.
Nothing, however, which can be done
—even the annulment of these unjust
laws in ail the States—will do much to
diminish the enormous expenses inci-
dent to this stylo of doing business. If
the " drummer " beats up trade by liis
irresistible talent for persuasion and the
flattering terms he offers, I he cost of
supporting an agent of so much
eloquence and personal fascination eats
up a good share of the prospective pro-
fits of his enterprise. We wish the
"drummer" good luck wherever he
goes, but it may not be amiss for New
York merchants to consider whether
they have not been depending too
much on that single thing. There is
another route to the pockets of buyers
all over the country—and that is via
the advertising columns of the
New York Press. No lnw pre-
vents an advertisement of won-
derful bargains from reaching, the
darkest corners of any State in the
Union. No appeal to the Supreme
Court is needed to vindicate the rights
of newspapers to "drum" everywhere.
There is no tax upon that kind of solici-
tation. Wherefore, without deprecia-
ting the efficacy of " drumming," we
suggest that money spent in advertising
goods for sale in New York is likely to
be returned with interest to the investor,
which can not be said so confidently of
the commercial travele-'s outlay at this
time.
silver SOD.
The English quotation is for silver
37-40ths fine. Our coin is i)-10ths or
8(5 40ths fine. The price is given in
icold, and the value of this in legal ten-
der is easily reckoned. The nominal
value per weight of our new silver coin
is exactly 384 grains to the dollar, or
•15 per pound of twelve ounces. From
the aggregate weight take one-fortieth
to bring our coin to the English stand-
ard of fineness.
COTTON.
The Liverpool spot market opened steady
and unchanged, with sales of 12,000 bales, of
which 6900 were Ameriean and 2000 for ex-
port and speculation. The imports were
36,000 bales, including 18,900 from America.
Arrivals opened l-32d. lower but closed firmer.
The New York spot market opened dull but
closed steady at %c advance on all grades.
Futures closed Arm, with sales of 26,200 bales.
The New Orleans market closed active and
strong, with sales of 9300 bales at unchanged
quotations.
The receipts at tho outports for the day
were 19,107 bales against 22,228 for last Wed-
nesday and 20,482 for the corresponding pe-
riod last year. The stock at all United States
ports as made up this evening is 980,273 bales
against 794,256 for the same day last season.
In this market sales to the extent of 2698 bales
were reported, including 480 taken yesterday
evening. The Exchange makes no alteration
in prices, but bulletins the market a closing
*• hardening."
