Wednesday , May 2,1883.
The receipts of cattle to-day fell short of
yesterday's receipts by nbout 700 head. The
majority of the buyers made heavy purchases
yesterday nnd they did not require as many
cattle to-day. For this reason the mnrxct
was hardly as brisk ns yesterday but nbout
all the tattle offered on sale were taken.
The market was a little easier than yester
day nnd salesmen found it difficult to obtain
yesterday's prices unless it might bo on
lomething very desirable. The general qual
ity of the cattle was not very extra and sales
men complained of the scarcity of neat , tidy
cattle.
lings.
There was a slight Increase In the receipts
of hogs over yesterday but some of the trains
came In ralher lalo nnd five loads nrrlrcd
after the market had closed. The market
was active nnd about steady at the opening
but ng the Inter trains arrived it cased oft
and closed n shade to 5c lower. The market
was weaker on light hogs while Iho better
grades of heavy hogs held up more nearly
steady.

at the bar , and , putting the letter in his
pocket , attended to the case and made
an admirable argument and gained the
case. Then he took my friend by the
arm and asked him logo with him to
his olllco. There he showed him the
challenge and remarked : "Of course
I will not I cannot fight Mr. Stephens -
ens _ . My whole nature is shocked
at it. It is a horrible barbarity and
proves nothing. I will decline and pub
lish my reasons. " The next morning
ho showed his reply to my friend. It
was copied and approved by him and
some other personal friends ; both
whigs and democrats endorsed it heart
ily. That withering reply that unan
swerable rebuke is still fresh in the
memories of Georgians , and did more to
abolish the code of honor than has been
done in a century. Mr. Stephens pub
lished Mr. Hill as a coward , but it
amounted to nothing. Mr. Ilill con
tinued to advance in popularily and lost
nothing in friends or renown. Mr.
Stephens had in a public speech spoken
of the known-nothing party leaders as
traitors to their country , and Mr. Hill
replied by saying that the parallel was
on the other side ; that the whig party
had for many years showered its honors
and its favors upon Mr. Stephens , and
no\y ho had turned from it and betrayed
it like Judas Iscariot did his Lord and
Mastcrand the only difference was that
Judas repented and hanged himself ;
but he was sorry to say that Mr.
Stephens was still unrepentant and un
hanged. For this language Mr. Ste
phens challenged him.
The Great Lick Telescope.
In three weeks' time the Lick observ
atory on Mount Hamilton will bo fin
ished. In commenting on it the San
Fnuicisco Call says : All that now re
mains to be done is to place the large
hydraulic rams for lifting the door into
position. To complete this work six
men from the Union Iron Works leave
to-day for the observatoryand they will
work strenuously to have it completed
oven before the time specified. As soon
a the floor is in perfect working order
the regents of the state university will
accept the observatory. They are go
ing there this week to inspect the ma
chinery , buildings , and instruments before - , ,
fore receiving them from the Lick
Trust. They are four raniBto bo erected.
The are similar to those Ubcd in ordin
ary elevators , but arc made telescopic ,
bo that no boring in the rock underneath
is required for them. Automatic valves
will work them , and this device , it is
believed , will leave no room for danger
from accidents. The immense floor to
bo lifted by these rams weigh between
fifteen and twenty tons. The frame
work for it is of steel sections riveted
together nnd covered with boarding
On it will stund the astronomer when
ho uses the great telescope to look at
the heavens.
