A correspondent gives some encouraging
statements in regard to the supply OF grain
at the West in another column, and many
Of our exchanges notice the same gratifying
fact The New York Evening Post, in an
article on the subject, says Whether the
crops turn op1 well or i'll. the extraordinary
quantity ofiand brough into cultivation will
ensure an abundant supply. Among the
western farmers there are still immense
boards of grain, which the late high prices.

beginning to doubt whether they have not
kept them too long, and are sending them
Off in wagons to the rivers ana the railways.
Their barns must be cleared for the incoming
crops, which are likely TO occupy more room
than those Of any previous year in our
country.
BY the last steamer we hear Of decline
of the price of breadstufls in the markets Of
Europe. 1t is generally observed that the
beginning of a reduction Of prices induces
sellers to come into the market In the fear
OF being too late for good price they offer
their produce Tor sale, and run down the
price to still lower tate by all coming into
the market together. We shat! not be sur
prsed to see the same effect produced by
the favorable prospect Of the crops Of grain
now on the ground. One of the western
papers predicted a week ago that within
thirty days from tina, time the price Of flour
on the lakes wosld be six dollars and half
The decline Of price is not likely to wait

THE EuRopEAs war.

Recent victories have revived the droop-
ing spirits of the Allied Powers, and the
terms OF peace they would have accepted a
month ago. would probably now be refused.
! The prospect Of peace is indeed lessened,
and 1t is difficult 10 see how any of the con-
tending nations will have gained much,
however protracted may be the struggle or
sanguinary the conflict. Should they close
! the war Tomorrow, there is no doubt that
! either Of the three great powers would be
satisfied 10 be placed in as good condition
| as at the beginning. And should they strug-
! gle on through years of bloody strife, it
| would be only TO drain the resources Of them
| all, as alternate victories and defeats may
give to each temporary advantage. Pro-
badly the only question that would be set
tied should they fight dozen wears, would
be the possession of Turkey. That posses
sion was probably the prominent idea-the
moving power that produced the war. The
Russian bear stretched out his paw to grasp
it, but this the Western powers would not
permit; it would too much endanger their
future safety. Either Of them, TO say moth
ing of the German powers, would be will
ing to take that fair portion of the earth un:
der protection-for the benefit Of the bar
barous Turks, were they not mutually held
in check by the others. The giant contest
wakes 6ercer, and we at safe distance from
the scene Of death amuse ourselves with
glowing accounts of a brave exploit. ter
rlb'e slaughter or splendid victory. Per-
haps the emotion is not very different in
either case. We are excited by the news,
and find sort Of pleasure in the excitement,
but there is, nevertheless, grim reality in
all the forms Of war, which exists in all its
ilideousness, however yelled in the Elusive
drapery Of martial glory.
