Allegheny bridge, and il was observed that, af-
ter being absent some time, be retired without

with the house by saying that bis wife being far
gone in pregnancy, was suddenly taken i'll
| when they had rescued the suburbs OF the city,
and that he had taken her 10 house and lef,
money so that she would be well provided for.
/ About three o'clock next morning, he arous-

The BoDY OF DECK REcovERED.-On Monday
morning last word reached this town that dead
body was floating in tho Miss ppi river near
the residence of Capt. Drew, few miles this
side OF East Burlington. Judge Richey imme.
diatey dispatched two or three persons with a
skiif down the river to take charge of the body
and have it buried. Upon an examination it
was discovered to be the body of j. E. Deck,
an account OF whose probable suicide we pnb-
lished last week. The head, we learn, was en-.
tireiy gone, but several articles in the pocker.
which Deck was known to have, as well as the
clothing, clearly proved it to be his BODY

I'd The complaint Of rust, blight, and weev;l
extends throughout the wheat growing portions
OF the country, including Ohio, Indiana, Iii.
nois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Missouri and Iowa
The appearance of great abundance which was
promised early in the season, was followed by
lean harvest OF half crop; which has greatly
discouraged farmers. As there is always rrum.
bling in regard to crops-and as many farmers
and produce dealers are in the habit, about
harvest time, of crying down the crops in order
to cry up prices, the country is not yet fully
convinced of the extent of the failure. Besides
there is much old wheat in the country and no
foreign demand, and We cannot look for an
advance IN bread stuffs until consumption shall
reduce the supply. But time will undoubtedly
bring better prices
