A FORTUNE IN WAITING FOR some OSE.-
The Quincy Herald says "snug little for.
tune" of 500, 900 can be be obtained by the
legal heirs whenever they call for it, at least
so they are informed by Daniel Stout Of
Rock River, Illinois. 1t appears it was
left by John Stout, Of South Carolina, pre-
vious to the war Of the Revolution, to his
brother, st. Leger Stout and his sister Nan.
cy Stout, then of New Jersey, but subse-
quently of Vergina, some where in the neigh
borhood Of Tygert's Valley, where they resi-
ded for years, and where they died. Nancy
Stout, during her lifetime, married a man
named Hart, and st. Leger woman NAM
ed Barklow. AS these parties never made q
demand for the money, it is said to be now
waiting the order Of their heirs, who can adj
dress Daniel Stout, Rock River, Illinois, on
the subject.

A LARGE CARGo.-Thc steamboat St. Croix
left here last week with cargo of 40, 900
bushels of grain, wheat corn, &c, for St.
Louis.--To have sent this per railroad would
have taken train of 1870 cars, (250 bushels
each,) and we don't know how many loco.
motives. The freight was six cents per
bushel; the same per ra,laoad could not
have been taken under 10 cents per busht
81.
The high prices which rule a. the Soath
appear to be drawing the grain from the in.
tetior of this State in that direction. The
short crops, and the consequent scarcity,
create an unusual demand, and carry IN
prices. This state of things will materially
affect the quantity which would otherwise
be shipped east from this port. We notice
that quotations are higher in Alton than in
st. Louis, for wheat, -four and corn.
