was becoming monotonous, and that to
break tho spell he would take a trip up

venture a trip out lu this cold world

cured the services ol a young colored
man named Frank Wood, who was wait
ing on him during his slay at tho SI.

Inr the boat had departed, Mr. Merrill

Cairo, Illinois, Monday Rvmitto, t
July 16, 1177. J
A most timely rain set in this morning,
and with slight Intaivals has continued
up to this time, three o'clock, with
indications that It will continue through
the night. The growing crops, and
particularly corn, will be much benefited
by this rain.
We note a slight Improvement in the
condition of the Flour market. There is
a better order trade, and merchants an
ticipate a still greater improvement In
this respect. This anticipation Is based
upon the fact that stocks south are ex
tremely light. New flour is coming in
slowly, ami stocks on the market here
are extremely light, and below the wants
of trade. There Is no old flour on the
market. We quote good family at
$7 7k38, and choice do., at8 2.V3,S50.
The demand tor medium and choice fam
ily Is good, while low grades are extreme
ly dull.
There is no change worthy of note in
tho condition of the market here for hay,
corn or oats. There is very, little activity
in the hay market and transactions have
been very light. The datnand is ex
tremely light, anil almost entirely from
the local trade. Receipts are limited,
though in the condition of the market
sufliclent for present wants. Trices are
steady at previous quotations The
bottom seems to have fallen out of the
oats market, and prices are down to bed '
rock. There is absolutely no demand
for them, and prices are at least 3c lower
than at the date ot our last Usue. We
note sales ot sacked oats at
38c. Receipts are light, though the
supply is good There is a good de
mand lor white corn, and prices are a
shade higher, and may now be quoted at
51gr)2c. Receipts arc light, aud the
supply on thu market almost exhausted.
Mixed is In fair supply, and liberal dc.
mand aU0(,50e The demand for meal
is active, and prices are steady at
$2 953. The supply is scarcely equa'

Is close, indeed. They are conneoted
by that wondrous elastio link, the sym
pathetic nerve, which communicates the
abnormal sensations of ths organ of di
gestion to that of thought. Now, if
digestion Is disordered, the brain, being
the great local point ot the nervous sys
tem, all tho nerves are In some degree
aflectcd. The main cause ot nervous
trouble is Impaired digestion, and that is
usually produced by weakness of the
stomach. Hosteler's Stomach Bitters
rectifies this, and overcomes nervous de
bility by infusing Increased energy Into
the operation ot the orsrans of nutrition.
Through the agency of this beneficent
tonic, not only are the nerves vitalized,
but the entire organism acquires rigor
and regularity.
