O. ti3 an easie thing
To write and sing:
But to write true vcrse
ls very hard.
Wc can nelthcr write nor sing, nor write
true vcrsc, but every once in a while we
like to
and tcll about the Albany Boxer?the
head of the Albany Wash Gang:
Oh! there i.s a stock-washing Chinee,
Who is known as P. Sure-Thing, the
mangler;
His home ls" at Albance,
He's a "welcher" and not a square
gambler.
Now his "wash game" is knocked in the
head
And his "wash ship" has taken toRum;
The brokers, that he with stocks fed,
Say "Old Sure-Thing is now on tho
bum."
Send for our frce book; also for tho
story of "Tlie Doer Done, or The Woe of
the "Washer."

tures. after opening steady at an advance
oi 7 puiiils and a decline of - to 4 points
on otiicr position's, pursued an irregular
course within a narr.ow range of varia
tioiis, with the advantage? most of the
time on the side ot the shorts. Fbllowlftg
yesterday's sliow'ers, most heavy in North
CaroHna, Alississi]>pi and Ai'kansas, and
comparatively so'aiit in South CaroHna
aud" Xorthern Georgia, a rather Weak
feeling prevailed, having its lirst effect
iu Liverpool, aud iii lurn producing an
easier ieeiiiig here, chiefly under the
pressure of turther selling by outsiders.
After tho opening ot the market there
was an advance ol" 8 points on eoverin'g,
followed by a break ot lb points on
further"-reports of rains in the central
and eas'tVrn'seetions of the belt. At noon
h decliue of -1 lo 0 points was apparent,
with subsequent changes unimportant
and trading very slack. Increased atteii
tibn was given to the receipts, which,
while rather larger, are behind the move?
ment of a year iigo. The crop news was
too mixed for confident action on the
part of any class of traders, and the
volume of to-day's business was very
small. with the market finally quiet in
