The banks are in a healthy condition, and are doing their usaal amount of business. There Is but little paper negotiated and rates of Interest rule steady at 8j10 per cent. We have nothing new to note In eastern exchange. The demand is fair and sales steady, laying at rar and selling at 1-10Q? ' premium. Commercial. This has been rather a dull week in a i uepartments cf trade. Thecontlaued bad weather has put the country roads In anything but a good condition, and this has had a tendency to keep a lare number of buyers from the city . . . The grocery market Is reported as being steady, and the demand for both staple and Jancy goods is fairly active. There is a steady business beinj transacted In the dry goods market, and, with the exception of a few unimportant changes, prices rule firm. The demand for fish Is reported as being quite good at our figures. Country produca is fairly active. Eggs are steady and firm. Butter is quiet and unchanged. There is some demand reported for poultry. Green vegetables are in good request. The provision market has been dull throughcut the week and prices are nominal. Flour is steady and unchanged.

Invasions by tbe Telephone. Daily Graphic If the telephone shall justify the promises that have been made for it, it seems certain to change so radically the current methods of communication as to amount a'.most to a revolution. Leaving out of the discussion, as merely a speculative theory, the assumption of some that the telephone will ultimately supercede the telegraph altogether, making the agile-fingered operators no longer necessary, and enabling friends to communicate, at long or short distance, by word of mouth, without the intervention of third parties, we may consider two things as practically settled, as indicated bv our interview to-day with the Western Union tetegraph company: 1. That the telegraph is to be superceded by the telephone in all municipal service. 2. That tbe telephone is to be adopted as the feeder and auxiliary of the telegraph at all small way stations now too anremunerative to pay the coit of an operator. The telephonic service for cities, as outlined in our interview, Beems likely to be of tbe greatest practical value. - If telephonic wires, by converging at a common center, where alone there is a manager, can be hitched and unhitched at call, so as to place it in immediate communication with B, without any danger of being overheard by other parties, the Importance " cf this establishment can scarcely be overestimated. When extended and developed, as it undoubtedly would be, it would go far toward making the mail, the telegraph and the dis trict messenger obsolete for the purposes of communication in cities. The addition which, it is said, tbe telephone is to make to the provincial telegraph system is not much less important. The p'lacing of 3 000 or 4 000 little towns in connection with the telegraph, by dropping a telephonic mouthpiece into their midst, will greatly accommodate great regions of country and add mu h to the aggregate comfort. The arrangements to increase the public ser vice which are being made by the Western Union, under its new management, are highly creditable to the enterprising spirit of that gigantic corporation.

DAVY CROCKETT. Lndlcrons Anecdotes Concerning -wa. tore's Nobleman.' Houston Correspondence of the St. Louis Ulobe-Dera:rat.l Today a Globe-Democrat correspondent called upon Mr, Asa Jarrr an, an aged resident of Houston and one of the early pioneers ot Texas. In his toyhood he was acquainted with the celebrated David Crockett, both natives of Tennessee in the mountains of which Crockett first saw the light Mr. Jarman evinced great pleasure in speaking of a frontiersman whose dame is prominently associated with the early history of the southwest. Up to the ago of IS, said Mr. Jarman, Crockett was unable to read or write, and his boyhood was passed in the solitude of the wilderness, hunting bears and raccoons, which was his sole occupation and delight. Removing into west Tennessee at a time

when it was a howling wilderness, unten anted save by Brum and the wild beasts, the young David found an ample field for the pursuit of a Nimrod-like life. Locating on a small river, the forests alon $ whose banks had never known an ax, he built a log cabin and carpeted his floor with bear skins. He was now happy. With none to molest him, as with gun the old-fashioned flint lock and dogs Daniel Boone like he sallied forth to catch or kill his favorite coon or savage bear. The youthful pioneer was not long to remain undisturbed, for the country soon settled up, the wilderness was taken possession of by the emigrant and the adventurer, the country was laid off into counties, and Davy Crockett's occupation was partially gone. In course of time Crockett was elected by his fellow-citizens to the legislature at Nashville. To such a man as he, who bad spent his life among the wild scenes of the border, Jreyond the pale of civilization, getting into the legislature was a considerable event, and many anecdotes are related. by Mr. Jarman of Crockett during his first entrance on public life. It was during bis first session as a "legislator" that Davy met with James K. Polk, afterwards president of the United States, but then only an unnoticed young lawyer. Both happened one d iy to be standing in a crowd ot members. Polk remarked that a bill would be immediately introduced to to alter the judiciary. Crockett, who did not know what tbe deuce tbe word judiciary meant, briefly replied, "I s'pose so," and to cover up his ignorance hastily slipped away from the crowd. Soon after he got to Nashville, never having been in a town before, Colonel Crokett became the hero of another experience, which, afterwards, when a member of congress, he wa3 fond of relating to his friends. He was invited to pay a visit to a billiard saloon the best in Nashville. He had never heard of billiards much, and had never seen them played. Arriving at the saloon his curiosity was greatly excited at seeing some men with long sticks shoving and punching at pretty red and white balls. The backwoodsman keenly watched the men as they poked and hit the balls, which would roll off into their proper receptacles. He left highly pleased. It was during the same period that Crockett was invited to a spiendid supper and banquet at the fine and aristocratic mansion of Mr. Irwin, in Nashville. Colonel Crockett arriving at the house strode across the gallery' or piazza to tbe door. Looking in, he waj " surprised to see the table cloths spread all over the floor, never having before seen a carpet, ex cept the one of bear skin which he had used on his cabin floor in the woods. Not knowing what the carpet was, and seeing no way to get to the nre place except by crossing what he believed to be the table cloth. Colonel Crockett, in full view of other guests, cautiously looked this way and that to see if there wai any chance except by crossing. At last he mattered to himself, "Who in the hell's afraid?" He crept around the carpet till tbe fire place was reached. B?fore supper was announced Colonel Irwin and the "boys" had a higb old time listening to Davy's b'ar stories. Now, be had never been at a banquet before, and after the guests were seated at the table a negro waiting boy Came up to the bsck of his chair and asked if he would have tea or coffee. Crockett replied, "Collee, though I have plenty sa'sponlla at home." Up stepped tbe boy with the coffee oa a waiter. Crockett insisted not only on taking the coffee, but tbe waiter also, and so he and the boy had it lively for a while. Crockett was an old line whig, and in his first race for congress from Tennessee "licke t" Colonel Hunt, a democrat, awfully, beating him by a tremendous majority. While a member of that body, and to his daughter, who wrote asking his advice about accepting the hand of a young man In marriage, he addressed the famous expression: "First be sure you're right; then go ahead." And Bhe did, to her satisfaction. Years rolled on. and Crockett, singularly enough, came to Texas, a General Houston did, in time to take part in the great struggle of 1S.5G acrainst Snta Anna and tbe Mexican power. While Houston was appointed to command the Texan army, Crockett went to San Antonio and offered his services to Colonel Travis, commanding the ill fated garrison of the celebrated Alamo fortress. He perished with its defenders, all of whom were put to the sword by the Mexicans. Crockett's body was found in a corner of the fortress, surrounded bv a number of tbe slain of tbe enemy. His nsme is embalmed in Texas history as one of Travis' immortal band. IB-allson Gold, Senator Ingalls, of Kansas, In speaking of Shylocfc'a gold, Baid: "No enduring fabric of national ppjsperity tan be builded in gold. Gold is tbe money of monarchs; kings covet it; the exchanges of nations are effected by it. Ifcftendencies to accumulate in vast masses in the commercial centers, and to move from kingdom to kingdom in such volumes as to unsettle values and disturb the finance of the world. It is the instrument of gamblers and speculators, and the idol of the miser and the thief. Being the object of so much adoration, it becomes haughty and sensitive and shrinks at the approach of danger, and whenever it is most needed it always disappears. At the slightest alarm it begins to look for a refuge. It flies from the nation at war to the nation at peace. War makes 11 a iugitive. No people in a great emergency ever found a faitb:ul ally in gold. It is the most cowardly and treacherous of all metals. It makes no treaty that It does not break. It has no friend that it does not fooner or later betray. Armies and navies are not maintained by KOld. In times of panic and calamity, shipwreck and disaster, it becomes the chief agent and minister of ruin. No nation ever fought a great war by the aid of gold. On ths contrary, in the crisis of greatest peril it becomes an enemy more potent than the foe in tbe field. But when the battle is- won and peace has been secured, gold reappears and claims the fruita of victory. In our own civil war it is doubtful if the gold of New York and London did not work greater injury than the powder and lead and iron of the rebels. It was the mont invincible enemy of the public credit. Go'. d paid no soldier or sailor. It refused th national obligations. It was worth most when our fortunes were lowest. Every defeat gave it increased value. It was in open all'ance with our enemies the world over, and i:a energies were evoked for our destmctior.. But as usual, when dancer has been averted and tbe victory secured, gold swaggles to the front and asserts the snprem acy." The MTerld Love Rob a at Heamp. Warwick Mf Michael's North American.
