Wheat-Gougng and Grinding
We hope, after long interval, may thrust
spoon into the rich portidge OF Wheat Spectators
without the mputaiion OF intrusion. These gentlemen
Tor neatly three months have been enjoying wonder
fully rich the poor farmers expense. Cicero made
ausion the very significant grin with which Ro
Soothsaycrs were wont to giec; each other when
passing the streets. They conscious of the hum
buggry they practising upon their duPes and they
could reprcs, the grin Of triumph when facing each
| other. We do not know that our Wheat Spectators
give the outward signs OF joy, which characterized
their Roman prototypes; bu, they would he amply just
ii in doing So Since the fret of August they have
had every thing their way. Wheat dHN and de-
o,ra" has been the grateful bulletin that greeted their
every mornings and the depressed the market
greater the rush OF wheat aud the eager the far

While this game has been going forward, believe it
has been the conviction of every welliuor,ned man. that
the temporary gut over an important ad
vance would take place We all know that the stocks in
Europe when the late harvest commenced, shorter
than they tor many years We all know that
the crops Eigltni France Spain Portugal, and Italy,

Pruvince< the coasts oi the BLACK

armies and it is natural SUPPOSE that under such
eli cuni-tances anything like average yield could be
anticipated We all know that he frst and last portions
OF the English aud Scotch crops were reaped in rain
that the grain has been thrown upon the market IN dim
aged state and that that wheat has been regulating
the price OF wheat We all know that the South aud
OF France delugel with water ia the Sping-
that the crops extensively destroyed, aud that the
Government while eonceaag the extent OF tue damage,
