Speaking OF the late decision in Baltimore,
relative to weighing grain, the Fredericks-
burg Herald says:-"rhe custom here has
been to set aside every fortieth bushel or
half bushel out of every twenty carried by
the dray--and at the end of the measurement
weigh the whole amount thus set aside
When receiving wheat along the river, the
came custom prevails as that hitherto obserV-
ed in Baltimore, viz: setting aside one BUSH
ell out of every sixty, ADD weighing the az
gregate wbeu the crop has been put on board
1t is decidedly more convenient than 10 weigh
all, and cannot but operate equally with pur-
chaser aud producer"
