The Grain Market.

In 1877, when the Irish famine and
the failure of continental European crops
caused demand for American bread
Stuhs, how our Locoioco friends boosted
of their Tariff of 1915! Then wheat
went up to So bushel, and -four to
50 and $40 barrel; and the Farmers
were told &c look at that, and see what
their true and only friends, the Locoio-
COS, had dnoe for them. There were
the fruits Of the Tariff of 1646.-We ell,
that Tariff is still in being-the Locoio-
CO majority in Congress, notwlihstand-
n Mr.. FILLMoEE's urgent recommen-
datonS, refuse to permit their darling TO
be touched; and what now are the pri-
ccs OF grain Going down-down-
down! Wheat is 70 cents bushcl--
flour hardly brings - a barrel on time:
and there is no prospect Of change for
the better. Every successive arrival
from Europe brings intelligence like
this:-.1merico@ four DECLi.N'ED sic

"Eow admirable is Locofoco policy!
1t destroys our Home market--makes us
| dependent on market in foreign land
although the market is precarious, and
has brought American wheat and flour
so low that the American Farmer cannot
sell his srajm there at liring prices. The
Farmers ofour country will learn their
interest when they come out for Protect

Grating Market at Home, and thus en-
sure living prices for their products.

interest. Locofoco policy is now de.
pressing it and has reduced the price of
grain to its present low standard"

CRoPs.-The Leonardtown Beacon
says-Our farmers are now engaged IN
securing their tobacco crop, which will
be the shortest raised in this county for a
number of years. The corn crop, too,
will be a very meagre one. In some
sections, where rain fell in June and Jul
ly, it presents a tolerably fair appear
ance, but taking the county through the
crop will fall short fully one-third Of
the average yield. With regard to the
potato crop, in this section it will be a
complete failure. Owing to the drought,
they were mostly planted very late and
came up badly, and although the tubers
have not attained more than half their
ordinary size, the vines are already dy-
ing.
The Centervile Times SAYS: ''The sea-
son continues very dry and the ground
has become parched and hard. Farmers
have been obliged to give up following
their wheat grounds. The corn crop
will be awfully short, and the potatoes
but as marbles, score required for
dinner.

BY P. C. RICKETTS,;

D7~W We print n number OF letters this week
from our attentive correspondents, which will
claim the readers attention.
e. Our correspondents, whose articles do not
Immediately appear, will bear with us. We will
publish all we can, and as fast rs We can. We
receive many articles not fit 10 publish because
of lack oilitcrary merit; some well-written ones
to which we have objections on the ground of
eXpediency; some that are quite good but want
corrections, and some that 'fhe Drri' himself
cannot read nor indeed the Editor who must be
supposed 10 be a little in advance ofthe former
individual. Probably, we have at this time
larger amount ofmnnuscript on hand than at any
previous period, which we will dispose of il
some way fast as possible; but our time is so
much taken up out OF the printing office that We
must beg the indulgence ofour friends.
DC-Letters from different sections the coun-
ty, containing items of news, and matters Of in
terest to the general reader, are always welcome.
So, also, are letters from abroad over the coun-
try. We have corps ofcorrespondents-many
orwhom write with marked abiity-extending
from California and New Mexico to New Or
leans, the praires Of the West, the lakes on the
North, and TO the hills of New England We
can safely say no country paper, such as onrs,
has such list ofcorrcspondcnts. This much
as to our letter writing friends. Among Our
