stock OF Foreign wheat now hefe--we have
never known so mnch--there is at least $780,
600 If not 500, 900 bushels on hand--this, with
the prospect Of speedy opening of the river,
has induced holders to give way full IS cents.

the election Of Capt. Brown the company has
increased to, aud now stands at ST.
The debt Of the company was contracted I'M
der Capt. Wood. In April, 1885, by vote OF
the company, the sum of $3.50 was borrowed Of
the Bank, for the purpose Of purchasing new
Uniform dresses. At the time Of payment it
was found, that, in consequence Of the neglect
OF some members a defect Of about $40 existed.
IN July, 1885, on the recommendation Of Capt.
wood, tax ofone dollar was assessed on each
member, 10 be applied to the discharge OF this
debt. What in fact ever became of this money
do not know, aud the last report of Capt. W..
is wholly silent about it; nothing, however, was
paid on the debt, and when Capt. Brown took
the command, it had increased to about S73.---
70 pay this debt, the company voted To sell
the Armory which was done accordingly, and
the debt discharged. Under Capt. Wood the
expenses of the company were always paid by
general tax on the members, and the deficien-
cies that existed from time to time, stood char
ged against the company. Since Capt Brown
has had the command, no such arrearages have
been suffered to accumulate. At one drill the
whole expense was paid by the officers; on two
other occasions deficiency Of Sil was prompt
~ supplied by the same officers. At the pres
eni moment the company is wholly free from
debt. IS

corruptions of the government, as he would the

not only resist himself, but authorize and com
