Clear, cool, delightful. Sugar in New York, standard whites quoted at 7 to 7-1/8. Rain yesterday must have been pretty hard, judging from roads and has done much in the way of supplying cisterns and ponds. Wrote D. Appleton and Co. for books. Urged Mr. Boote, as I do daily all the managers, to take advantage of this fine weather and push the grinding just as rapidly as possible.
