It has been a struggle for broad with all of us, but when they began to sell my soul in the board of trade to-day I resisted. Jfefore they old my soul they sold my two children, who are in Philadelphia. I saw these children sold in the board of trade once, before and I could not endure to ee it done again. Now, I figure it out that when a man is in bondage he has a right to help himself out if ! can. I have a grievance. It is a struggle ibr bread. Once they sent me to Kankakee. That was several years ago. Thu asylum did me no good, but J hava thought lately that I would like to go to some asylum again. I went to the board of trade to-day because I thought they would put up my soul for sale. I bought the re'olver on Clark street I have a wife in Philadelphia and two children, but the latter have been sold ! on the boartl of trade. I belong to an invisible society, which demands onu dollar per week as a membership fee. How could I pay my fee, with noMiing to do and my soul leing sold at, the ."board of trade?

The improvement was brought about mainly by the pub licatloit of President Cleveland's letter to Gov. Northen of Georgia. Kvery where there was praise to be heard of this letter and Mr. Cleveland for be tngsoiranic and outsnolceu. Jiaulcers and brokers and business men gener ally were unanimous In declaring It to be un admirable document, and that Mr. Cleveland had spoken at the right time and shown his courage nnd fealty. lhe ettect of the letter was prompt ly show on the stock exchange where tt was taken as an explicit and com plete denial of the many absurd stories which unprincipled Washington corre spondents have deluged all street this last week to the effect that the administration had given up the fight, and that a comproini.se on the silver question was be tng arranged. The market opened very strong, and there was an advance on nearly all stocks of a point to a point and a half, with sugar leading The strength in the market was helped also by the beginniug of fortnightlv settlements in London. Foreign houses said the London market was strong on Mr. Cleveland's letter, and the general opinion there wns that the uncondi tional repeal of the silver purchase law was inevitable. The letter in question is as follows; EXECUTtvr. Massion, I September Ü5. tj'J.!. f TVm. ir. J. Xorthtn: MV DKAit Sill I hardly know hovr to reply to your letter or thu 15th Inst. It seems to me that I am quite plainly on record conccrniiu the liiinnclal nue.stion, My letler nrreptlns the nomination to the presidency, when rend hi connection with thu message lately sent to eonuross In extraordinary soslon. apjicars to me to be very implicit.

I want our Hnanclal condition and the laws re latino to our currency so safe and renssurlns; that thofc who have money will spend and In vest it in business and new enterprises instead of hoarding it. ou can no: euro f rieht by calling it foolish and unreasonable, and you can norprevent tho f rifhtenetl man from hoard in his money. I want :ood. sound and stable money, nnd a condition of confidence that will keep it in use. ithln the limits of what I have written I am a friend of sliver, but I believe its proper place in our currency can only he llxcd by a re adjustment of our currency legislation and the iiiuuKuruinm oi a consmem anil compreuen1 Ivo linaneial scheme. I think such a thing can only bo entered upon prolltahly and hope fully nfter the repeal of tho law which Is charred with all our Hnanclal woes. In the present state of tho public mind this law can not bo built upon nor patched in such s way as to rel ove tho situation. I am. therefore, opposed to free and unlimited coinauc of silver by this conn try alone and Independently, nnd I am in favor of the Immediate and unconditional rcm-al ol tue purchasing clause of the so-called Shcr man law. I confess I am astonished bv tho opposition in the senate to such prompt action as would relieve the present unfortunate situation. Ms dally prayer Is that the delay occasioned by sucn opposition may not bo the cause of plun in the country Into deeper depression than it has yet known, and that the democratic partj may riot be justly held responsible for such a catastrope.
