Inspections of Flou-The New York Express
says:-ss An effort is making among the Flour deal
ers here to have, by mutual understanding, an uni
form inspection for she city and county, and, Of
course only one brand for all of the different nspec
tors to work under. As the inspection is now con-
ducted it is complained, that large quantities OF
poor trash suffered to bass, and to be branded as
superine, which deserve no such brand Hence the
complaints of New York inspection, on this side OF
the Atlantic and on the other beginning to be
loud. The poor crop of wheat, it is stated, in Ohio,
Indiana and Wisconsin, has been mixed up with good
Genesee, and all passed off as superine"
