There li a good deal complaint about the low collections In the oily. The produce markets at the city have been very nlow for the pait twodny * . A word to country hankers ; Vou nro draw ing monobom New York , not because you really need It In your local business , suy the American Hanker , but bccausn you nro grow- dlstrustfmof the xolrcncynt the metropolitan banks.

The trust companies do not appear to take kindly to the now rules and nro talking of withdraw ing rather than submit to them. The outlook for the yield of cotton In the stnto of Alabama , llko that In all the southern states. Is excellent KO far assize Is concerned , but much of It Is of no better qnallty tbun u strict lira middling grade , the pickings being Mulncd somewhat by dust , ruin nnd front. This defect- scorns to bo quite general , not only lu Alabama , which ranks third In the production of the staple , but also In many other sections of the south , which may ntrout somewhat the market value of good cotton. The quantity of the cotton lalscd , however , will more than make up for the depreciation In the quality , and the returns from their crops will continue to enrich the Alabama ag riculturists. t Dlssnppolntincnt li expressed In many ( ] iiar- tors , says the Chlcimr ) Dry Goods Reporter , at the present low price of wool , The fabrics mndo from the better grades o ( wool , such ns are produced In this country , have boon slug gish for the past two years , owing to the weather condition" . Although the present flonsiMi has been bettor thnn the two past , muih yet remains to b dcslicd. Wo think that as the winter advances , woolen goods will be consumed In much larger quantities thnn ovt-n present prospects would Indicate , lending to a better condition among the mills , which will necessarily bo reflected on the wool market. It is .self evident to any ono who liasj given the subject the least attention that the dry goods merchant , in order to bu successful , must keep himself wall Informed ns totha pro * allln ? fashions of the day. Only In ox- ironio rural districts can goods not lu style be sold , oxrept at u discount. This Is no simple matter , for It Is necessary that the merchant should not inurcly have a knowledge of the styles prevailing at present , but ho must bo n master of the situation to that extent that ho unnjudgo what the fashion will bo when the goods are placed on thomnrket. Many a mer- ohont has found to his cost the disadvantages of having a stock of goods not up to the latest requirement ! ) of fashion. * "ANKUV1G ONDS Banking la nil branches , receive Accounts , Issue Interest Ocrtlllr.itcs nt Deposit , etc. Deal In choice Municipal Bonds And other Securities lirarlng K to i.rr crnt.
