Dealers generally anticipate that the
receipts Of the summer will he light, but
we think they will bc disappointed, and
that they will be very large in July and
August, and in all probability bring down
prices, to the point where large orders
for expectation will come in and afford
some relief to merchants and freighters.
This will certainly be so if the recent
letters from the West, in strange con.
trast with those received six weeks ago
from the same parts, are correct.
A letter from Chicago dated June 8,
to the New York Rxpress, says The
receipts are coming in beyond the expec.
tation Of al. aud with rush never be.
fore saen.n Our readers will remember
that we expressed the opinion some weeks
since, that the supplies would be with.
held later than usual by the Western
farmers this year, on account of the
heavy loss at which the early receipts
aold last spring, while the later receipts
commanded a handsome profit.
The letter to the Express says, 1.-The
receipts by teams, yesterday. at Henry,
Chilicothe, and Lacon. were Is, 900 BUSH
els, and much larger to-day. The Gal.
ena and Chicago river railroad, q road
which it was stated would bring no grain
to market, this ssasau, is now bringing
$4,000 to $4,000 bushels wheat, and
10000 to $4,000 bushels corn, per day,
Our friends who are buying on that road
write us that since planting has been
completed, farmers are coming in, who
they supposed had no corn whatever to
dispose Of, and are Offering two years
crops for sale, The receipts Of grain in
Chicago for the next sixty days both of
wheat aud corn, will astonish the world"
1.-THE crops are looking beautiful, and
such yield of wheat never was seen in
Illinois or Wisconsin and Indiana, as
predicated upon present appearances, We
shall have this season. Corn is now up
ard looks very fue 10 color, and with
good weather from now out can but do
we'll. Unless prices advance in Europe,
50 as to give an active shipping demand,
We will food you out down East, and
prices must decline materially.
The Chicago Journal predicts Bank.
ruptoy for Spectators in Western lands,
It says:
"Such a result i. inevitable, sooner
or later, II cannot be otherwise. In
the newer States and Territories lands
are held and sold at almost fabulous
prices. and all classes of people are wild
with the land mania. In Kansas, dis.
turbed and agita,ed as the Territory is,
town lots are sold at hundreds Of dollars
per foot, and wild lands, scarcely trod By
the foot of civilization, are held at prices
very far above their real value for prac.
tical use. At some promising business
points, in the more recently organized
States, thirty, fifty, and even one hun.
dred per cent is offered for money to in.
vest in real estate tits impossible that
such a state of things should long exist.
Lands cannot continue to 60 up and up
ad infnitum There must be stopping
place somewhere, and when that is reach
cd, .hoy will drop ~ their rosl v.luo for
practical purposes"
ANOTHER DFATH BY THE BirE OF A
SplDER,-A Miss Sarah j. Colburn, Of
Chaplin, Conn, died recently from the
bite of common black spider. The
circumstances were these;
when she rose on Monday morning
a week before her decease, she found the
spider upon her pillow, and felt sting.
ing sensation upon her lip, which contin.
ued until Friday, when her lip and face
commenced swelling, and she was con.
fined to her bed until Tuesday, when she
died in great suffering. Her head and
face and neck were very much swollen
so much 90 that she could neither see MOI
speak"
W. have been informed that whiskey
will draw the poison out Of spider bite
by applying it in a manner by which The
liquor cannot evaporato. A small glass
bottle inverted over the wound is the
better way. II the poison has began "a
spread in the System, take q dose inter.
nally. Let it be tried - Traveller.
In case whiskey is not at hand, take
tobacco. Either should be used inter.
nally aud externally. Under such cir.
cumstances they do not have their usual

How TO Cook RHUBARB 1t is com.
mon error in cooking rhubard to peel il.
This should never be done, as tho skin
contains the aroma Of the plant, and ia
not at all fibrous, but cooks as readily
and becomes pulpy. We have der we'd
this information from French cook OF
note, experience, and skill, The same
cook tells US that asparagus should be
Gu. into pieces about three quarters Of an
inch long before cooking II should be
boiled with nice piece Of salt pork and
