IMPROVEMENT IN BREADsTUFFs.-The New York
Herald of the 18th inst, makes the following re-
marks:
There was further Improvement in breadstufFs
yesterday, and more activity, caused by an i'm
proved export demand and light receipts Com
mon grades OF flour advanced about 8 cents per
barrel. Wheat, with Gales of 5OOOO 10000
bushels advanced &c to SC per bushe Corn also
advanced about &c per bushel, with a fair amount
OF sales: Included III the transactions we're IL.
OUO bushels oil corn, taken for export at soc per
0ushel. This movement is connected to some ex-
tent with information received regarding the ex-
tenG OF the potato rot in Great Britain. Private
letters speak of its progress and extent, both in
ireland and England, as being more xtensivs and
serious than the newspaper accounts would lead
one TO believe. With our large crops, should high
prices be maintained which must be the case more
Iess WIN cotton, tobacco AID rice, and probably
also with breadstuffs strong recuDerative action
10 our monetary Affairs, and on q more solid and
ueaithy basis will probably ere long be realized.

~ A Louisiana correspondent Of the
Washington Intelligencer says that the Chi
nese Sugar Cane docs not prove as profitable
as the old sugar cane. There is much more
labor ir hitting and preparing it for the mill,
as compared with the sugar cane, it being
very difficult to divest of its leaves. 1t also
takes more wood to boil it. In one expert
ment in sugar cane and one of Imphee the
yield was, in the former, three thousand
pounds of sugar, and one hundred and eigh-
ty gallons molasses per acre; while the In
phee gave at the rate of sixty gallons cf sy-
rup to the acre and no sugar.

OF The article on the outside of
Tuesdays paper entitled death of Du-
elist" was inserted by mistake, after the
whole story had been shown to be al
most pure Cotton. Such fight as is
described in the account never took place
in Frank fort--eonsequently was not
witnessed by Mr.. Clay or Crittenden.-
The brutal killing of the dog was rebuk-
ed noe by Mr.. lloleman the editor, but
by Capt. Holeman, his brother, who
fought duel with the perpetrator Of the
cruel deed in the ordinary way with pis-
tolls. and killed his antagonist and was
shot through the hips himself and rem
dered cripple for life. A correspondent
thinks the article "a libel on the poepls
of Frankfort and the eminent men
whose names are used" in which senti-
ment We agree with him.

OT The Illinois Central Railroad have
within the last ten OF fifteen days, dis
charged from the various departments OF
their employment, more than six hun
dred men. These men are turned adrift
without any prospect Of employment for
the coming winter; and their only funds
are in uncurrent bank notes, with which
they can now with difficulty buy bar
rel of four. Other roads in the same
State are discharging large number OF
workmen, who are looking forward with
a gloomy prospect to an idle winter
Other roads will be compelled to adopt
the same course.
The freight trains on the Central Rail
road, which few weeks ago were long
and heavily laden with grain, going into
Chicago, are now passing over the road
with short trains of nearly empty cars,
while the road is lined with stacks oil
unthrashed wheat. A friend who left
Chicago few days since, says the re-
ceipts Of grain at Chicago are scarcely a
fifth of the usual quantity at this season
of the year. 1t is scarcely fifty days &c
