There was a sudden stiffening of South- ern Pacific in the final dealings aiso, but the closing generally was heavy and 4ull.

NEW YORK, Jan. 28.—The fluctuations of the January cotton option were far more vio- lent than ever before known, reaching a mat- ter of 25 points, amid intense excitement, | though singularly smail trading. Shorts were crazed in the first hour by sensational reports of 15 being the price at which over-sold Ja uary operators were to be allowed to ‘'set: and by claims that the clique would possibly refuse to settle at all until the last moment. | March and May followed, but falled to de- | velop abnormal strength. The English market steadicd considerably in keeping with our early display of pronounced strength, but closed in 2 Ron-committa sort of spirit with the B ropean trade generally looking to us for fin- centive.

The Log of a Ship. A ship's log is an instrumert for meas- uring the rate at which the vessel is go- ing and consists of three pa logchip, the logline and the lo principie is simply this: A light substance thrown from the ves- sel ceases to partake of the motion of the vessel as soon as it strikes the water and will be left behind on the surface after a certain interval. If the distance of the ship fronr this stationary object be meas- ured the approximate rate of sailing will be given. The logehip is the float, the logline is the measure of the distance, and the log- glass defines the interval of time. In the old days the heaving of the log required skill and watchfulness, but since the patent log has come into use no skill is required in finding the speed of a ves- t is regulated by clockwork and the number of knots the vessel sails per hour is recorded on the dial without any hand touching it. —_————— THE CALL'S CALENDAR. &ll[TIWIT F. 3 | Moon's Phases. ¢l 71 8] 9(10 1|2 @ T Soon.
