AN ADVANCE IN WHEAT.-Our market is now
in condition which should give it the atten.
ton of growers Of wheat throughout the North
West By reference to our sales report it will
be seen that there was an advance yesterday of
about three cents per bushel over previously
full fgures-piime and choice fall grades selling
at ninety to ninety-fve cents. Among the DAVIS
sales were two lots OF club aggregatng twenty
thousand bushels, which sold for future delivery.
These prices point to st. Louis as the best pay
ing market in the West aud Northwest at pre-
sent, and sales Of the above kind noted indicate
that supplies are insufficient for the wants of
buyers. .,
Our old customers on the upper rivers and at
railway stations in Illinois, are too sparing in
their shipments this season, probably because
they think that VIC are cut off temporarily from
our extensive Southern trade connections. we

THH SEcHsn.-The secesh in Kentucky are
quite lively. They are more demonstrative just
now than they have been 1t any time sihce the
extinction Of Kentucky neutrality. The reason
is, the encouragement thew receive in the North.
They mark the increasing disloyalty of con-
siderable portion of the Northern press. and the
growing partizanism, and are impressed that
their day is coming. They had better not lay

~ The citizens of Cincinnati cannot brook
the outrage perpetrated upon the good name of
their city by the recent mob at the Opera House
on the occasion of the appearance of Wendell
Phillips, and so have sent him an invitation to
repeat his lecture in that city on his return east
when they pledge themselves to "see him
through" Mr.. Phillips will probably accept the
invitation.

The clinton Journal.

We have received little paper with the above
title, printed at Clinton, Henry county, Missouri
On the outside it is secesh and printed by Rich
ard i. Day. After the outside form was in type,
Day left at the approach of the lst Iowa Cavalry
and Frank Peasc as Editor and Samuel Marchsni
as publisher continue the paper. Col. Warren
is commander Of the Post; VIM. Thompson
Acting Major of Sd Battalion; Capt Heath, Pro
| vost Marshal. Below are 4 few items from the
| local column:
| For ST. LOUIS Last Tuesday fifteen prison
ers were sent to ST. Louis from this place-men
who were found in arms against the Government
How they will be disposed of we are unable to
| say, but they will no doubt have justice done
| them.
THE HosPITAL-This post is provided with
| an excellent building for the accommodation OF
| sick and wounded soldiers. There are not many,
however, occupying the building as yet We
have few sick and wounded of our own men
| there, besides some wounded ~secesh. All are
receiving excellent care at the hands of those
having them in charge; ard most of them will
soon be themselves again.
PRisoNERs.-Not day passes without fresh
| instalment of secesh prisoners being brought to
town, by various scouting parties Of the Iowa
| First. Our boys have also taken a supply of
guns, which for variety, eclipse Mrs. Toodles'
| assortment OF sundries in the old garrett These
fellows are required to take the oath of allegi.
| ance, and give heavy bonds for their future good
conduct. The presence of the Iowa First in
this locality is having salutary effect.
"OLD PI."-We havl about a bushel and a
half of pi, that is of earthly use to us unless
we conclude to remain here and publish paper
just for the "Iun of the thing" but as VIC do not
propose doing that, we'll let some one have it
to distribute on shares. Our Office looks as If
the former occupants had taken French leave,
and like the kangaroo going into the mountain
had kicked the sand and gravel behind them. They
left the ''pi" referred TO, some rusty STICKS"
few "chases." seven pieces of "riglette," stove
pipe hole, an empty bottle of whiskey y sardine
box full of 'quods," jackass cut also small
cut representing q runaway bigger. With this
outfit, which we regard as "fat take" we are
doing Uncle Samuel's job printing and find work
sufficient to keep three printers busy day and
night
MORE PRIsoNERs.-Just as we 60 to press we
learn that the detachment under Col. Warren,
which left here last Monday, 10 returning from
the scout in the direction of Monigaw Springs,
with from 40 to 30 prisoners There was no
chance to bring the rebels into an engagement,
but little skirmishing took place in which
few were wounded. We have no room for par

We understand that commission OF gentles
