that "Mr. Pfster Of that city,has boxed his pack:

publishers thath he holds it subject to their or.

of Mr.. Pfster will be followed generally. by

Of his honor, of which the law of the land takes,
no cognizance, practices a code that violates
alike the statue and the common law. The
consequences for the most part, rest with the

THE PRICE OF FLoUR.-The New York Her..
aid, in review Of the prospects Of. the cereal
crops in this country, concludes, upon due con-
sideration, that "betore the close of navigation
during tile coming fall, both wheat and sfiour.
must experience a marked decline in price; and
this opinion is strengthened by the fact that
large quantities of the crops Of previous years,
whchshad been lying in granares waiting for
a rise, came into market early in the spring..
and are now lying,in storehouses in the shape,
of -four, which must be forced off this fall, with
the crop, or suffer great depreciation in
quality fpermtted to lie over:s Nothing, we.
think, can preserve the present prices .butsa
greatly increased Europeand demand, which We
car now see no reason to anticipate.
The Herald states that the millers in the
Western 1and Southwestern States are realizing
a net profit of ssl.62. on every Eve bushels Of
wheat converted into -four on their own ac.'
count. The farmers hayeaaceordngB deter
mined TO take their wheat to the mills, pay the,
required toll, getit ground, and disposssof the
-four themselves, thus, securing a portion of the
profit now pocketed by the, mlers. This will
force the nillers either, to put -four on the mar.
ket at.greatly reduced prices, in order to. .un.
dersell the farmers, or to pay an advance per
bushel on wheat. q. . ~
