GEORGIA WHEAr.-Augusta, Ga, has become quite
a wheat market During the month of August past
the receipts by railroad were 49t32j bushels, and by
wagons 2O,OOO The shipments for the same time
were 4S6 ,259 bushels.
The Rome (Ga) Southerner states that, at the last
Great WORLDS Fair in London, wheat raised in Floyd
county, Ga ook the second premium among the
vast number Of samples of this cereal from all quar-
tiers Of the globe, and that since that time the de
mand for Southern wheat for consumption in the
North and eXportation has steadily aud rapidly in
creased. The Soatherner accounts for it thus:
The large proportion of gluten contained in whea
grown here, coupled with early harvesting, which
enables the farmer to get his crop into market soone
by some weeks than his Northern competitors, has
caused the very large demand of late years for ou
grain.

Worcester daily spy. [volume] (Worcester [Mass.]) 1850-1888, 1857-05-29

leSSrS. Editors II am glad to see, by your
paper of last Friday, that the flemen of this city
intend to have grand demonstration the present
season. This is as it should be. l have often
wondered why Worcester, so centrally situated,
so easy Of access from every part of the country,
and having, as is acknowledged on all hands, one
OF the most thoroughly organized and best disci-
plined fire departments in New England, should
be behind her neighbors in this matter And |
have often inquired why we have never had gen.
eral fremen's muster here; and the only reason
l have ever heard, is the difficulty of obtaining
the necessary funds for premiums &c.
Now, do not believe this objection to be we'll
founded. We have as many public spirited men
here as elsewhere, and believe our merchants,
our keepers of hotels, restaurants, and other pub
lie places, would be glad to contribute toward so
worthy an object, especially when, for every dime
invested, they would be sure to reap gold dollars
The annual drills of our own FIRE department
have been eminently successful, and there is no
reason why one on larger scale should not be
equally so. Judging from the immense gather
ings that have taken place at Lowell, Springfield,
and other places, on such occasions there can be
no doubt that if fremen's mus ter should take
place here, and be got up on a liberal scale it
would draw such crowds as we have not seen since
the days of " Tippecanoe and Tyler too" Then
go ahead, boys, and let us have demonstration
that wiz be an honor to our fire department and
to the City. QUINsIG
