GROWING JoLLY.-Our pondcrous neighbor
of the RtpaJtieaa has actually succeeded in
so far relaxing the lckden rigidity OF his
features as TO evoke cacchination. Some
unconscionnble joker has amused him with
the happy fiction Of boot.too encounter
between ourselves aud an ex.aldcrman,
thereby not only selling our innocent cot,m-
porary, but accomplishing the miracle Of IL
Eliminating his countcnance with palpablc
grin. The joke was SO good that he has
made il the burden of an editorial for scvc-
raj successive weeks. We dislike TO spoil
what appears to have given him so much sa-
tisiacton, but are compelled to say we have
no knowledge of having been the subject OF
any such operation as is intmatcd, or that
we were threatened in that way One or
two persons, who had been candidates on
the X. y. side at the recent city election,
finding themselves classcd in our returns
under the X. n. head, requested us in a
friendly way, to remove the offensive Initials
so far as they were concerned, which we
cheerfully did, assuring them that, although
we had no intention, by our mode of classi-
flying, to put them down as belonging to the
Objectionable order, we fully appreciated
their unwillingncss TO rest even under the
suspicion of belonging to an order, which,
according to prominent wing leader, fat
tens on bigotry, cultivates vice, and breeds
liars"

CLEARED.
OTTAWA MARKET.

OTTAWA, June 2.
Arrivals Of produce exhibit marked fal.
ling of a compared with last week, owing to
a depression and iluttering in prices. Al
the beginning Of the week corn dropped
from "a 7Gc of the week before to Ct &C.
and was 'stubbornly held at those figures un-
til Thursday, when better adviccs from the
east sent it up again to ~ 20, which were
about the best figures yesterday. The fall
was attributed to heavy arrivals Of western
corn at Buffalo in heated and damaged
condition, which affected prices in Chicago
and therefore Of course also here. Wheat
and oats held their own, but arrivals scarcely
sufficient to supply our mills.
Flour--$9 90, at retail. lsH

Circuit Court.

The Circuit Court has been in session in
this city some three weeks, but we find little
in its proceedings to justify an extended re-
port.
The Grand Jury completed their labors on
Tuesday, after having found tho unusually
large number ofls7 indictments, of which 1853
were for selling liquor without license, 9
for keeping tippling houses open on Sunday,
~ for larceny; 4 for riot; for assault with
deadly weapon; for perjury for may.
hem and the rest for miner offences, the
great mass, as usual, ascrbablc to the uses
and abuses Of alcohol
Ofthe liquor indictments, but few have
yet been tried the parties generally show.

the matter.

Wheat exhibits an improvement in quota
tons. Yesterday morning spring brought
from 100 to 1890, mixed spring and fall
1860, fair to good fall 172! to 2lOc, prime
ll5 to 120c., and choice 225c. Buyers
evince but little disposition to operate at
these prices, and hardly an amount above
tins receipts of Sunday was taken---of which
ZOO and 1000 sacks were OF prime and
choice qualities. These qualities are in de-
mand, and command relatively higher pri-
ces than any other.
Corn continues active. The commercial
report in today's paper contains a transaG'
ton above any sale Of the season-bcing ~
sacks white from the Levec, at ll0c. The
sales yesterday foot up over 10000 sacks,
ranging from SO to SIC. for mixed, 93c. for
yellow, delivered on board, and 100 to
ll0c., for white. In the South, prices are
remarkably well sustained, Notwithstanding
the heavy shipments made, and great conf
dence is felt that no diminuhon will be cS.
perienced du'ing the balance of the season.
Oats-Receipts fair, but sales limited.
We report 100 SKIS at Doc, exclusive of
bags; 27s, secondhand gunnics, at 57c;

The Temperance Meeting.

Owing to The heavy rain that commenced
about 2 o'clock yesterday, it was found i'm
practicable to hold the temperance mass
meeting in the public square, and as the cir
cult court was in session, it was necessary to
adjourn it until evening, when a large con-
course met in the court room. The assem-
bly, was addressed by Mr.. Brown, the Cay
uga Chief" in his happiest vein, but as our
paper went to press before the meeting adj

HEALrn.-The City Council at its last
meeting at the request Of the Health Officer,
DR.. Harris, ordered, that the health ordin.
ancs be printedtn hand.bill form and circu-
lated throughout the city.
This is right--hot weather is coming on
cholera is visiting some of our down river
neighbors, and if the vast amount of filth,
stagnant water, &c, which abounds in our
streets, alleys, and back yards, be allowed
to remain in those places for month or two
longer, not only will that dreaded scourgc
visit IA, but sickness of all kinds will exist,
and Ottawa lose her cnviablc reputation for
being healthy city.
We hope our citizens will promptly COM
ply with the requirements of the health or
dinnncc, and we will add, for the benefit of
those who arc disposed to be ncglcctftil that
the penalty ''madc and provided for its vio-
lation will in all cases be strictly enforced. :.

DIR WEArHrR-RAiS.-Our farmers were
under serious apprehensions few days ago,
that their hopes of u corn crop the coming
season would be blasted by the continued
dry weather. which had become SO extreme
as utterly to prevent corn from coming up,
or that which had come up from gaining
sufficient Roadway to escape the birds and
cut worms that were preying upon it. On
Wednesday and yesterday, however, we
were favored with some fine showers, which
have given the parchcd earth and thirsty
vegetation temporary relief The spring
has been unusually dry in this re ZION, and
