Th? Flight of Time.
Who saith "forgotten years are dead f"
Time never dies :
To Heaven departed years have sped.
There to record things done and said,
And even the thoughts that rise
And rall like waves, and seem
As evanescent as a dream.
Vainly we deem the Past ls gone
In all we fee*
In all we wish, or are, or can,
That which hath been decides the man.
The Past is very real,
And casts its light or shadow o'er
The years that shall be evermore.
To man Immortal what are years?
In pilgrimage
So many miles, as still he nears,
Through love and joy, and toil, and tears,
Bis heavenly heritage.
Another milestone standeth here !
Pilgrim ! be glad-the last is near !

MANCHESTER, December 4.-COTTON GOODS.
Vp to Thursday there was a busy and advancing
market for both yarn and cloth, in cons?quence
e?* the speculative movement of cotton, which
ended in transactions for the week to the amount
of 127,000 bales. It is somewhat remarkable that
spinners altonld have pressed on the cotton mar?
ket for tome weeks past to cover their engage
ment s, seeing that the American crop was com
?forward BO freely as to point almost with Ger?
ty to easier prices. Such, however, appears
to have been their general policy, and hence they
have forced np prices fully >,d to ?id V ft. In
shipping yarns this week an exceedingly
large business has been done, buyers protesting
against the advance of prices, but still vield?
ing it, to that these spinnings arc fully Xd"f? ft
above the rates of Tuesday. The sales include
fair quantities of 4's to 14's and io's to 24's,
?nd ts's to 32's, water twist, for the Conti
ment and for China. There have aiso oecn fair
transactions m io's mule and the Oner counts for
India and China-60's being >?d per ft dearer. A
good many of the spinners of these are under
contract till Christmas. A similar advance in
prices has been obtained in home trade yarns,
and a business has been done clearing off stocks
and placing more spinners under contract. In
cloths, 38 inch shirtings, prices are l,^dto3d
dearer than last week: and 45 Inch to 54 inch are
Sa to 4>-d per piece dearer: and buyers, though
unwillingly, have placed fair orders at the ad?
vance. Makers or jaconets and mulls have raised
their quotations ld to lxd per piece. Printers
are advanced to about the same extent as 39 inch
shirtings. Mexican and other qualities of T cloths
have sold rather more freely, and 60 have long
cloths, and are rather dearer. Snch ls the gen?
eral course of the market up to Thursday, and in
the aggregate a targe business was effected. Yes?
terday tae cotton market gave way, and business
fell off here. Manufacturers and spinners holding
contracta will not listen to lower terras, but buy
era are holding back, and very little business has
been done yesterday or to-day.
Interior Cotton Market?.
ATLANTA, December 20.-The market cloded
active at 22XC for middling; 22X for low mid?
dlings; 2134c for good ordinary; I9>^c for ordi?

up te tue reception or the usual afternoon tele?
grams from the New York market, which, being
unfavorable to buyers, cooled down the demand,
and the market closed quiet, ir not a little dull, at
x2Xc for middlings.
Havana; Market.
HAT AKA, December 19.-The following is the
condition of the Havana and Matanzas markets
at the close of business yesterday :
SUGAR.-There is an absence of business, occa?
sioned by the want of stuck and the difficulties
between planters and merchants relative to thc
new arrangements regarding tares. Quotations
are irregular. Muscovado firm at 91? rls. Stock

boxes, 3500 hhds. Exported during the past week

Montgomery Market.
MONTGOMERY, December 18.-COTT >N.-The
sales or cotton during the week were considerable,
mostly on orders from the Eastern manufactur?
ers, some for covering short contracts about to
expire, and some on speculation. The prices
have not varied much from those of last week.
Most were made on the basis of 22?,a22.'ic for
low to strict middlings. All the rivers are up,
and as large receipts are looked for planters need
not count on much if any rise.
