THs CincinaAu Gas.its is OF the 2picien
that although the yield Of wheat this year.
may fall little below the average, yet as
8 greater breadth than usual was planted
there will be nearly tie same supply.
It says that the aggregate OF the three crops
of wheat, oats and hay, Is larger than usual
and it reasons that tine present inflated
prices for these articles eau not last. The
foreign demand promises to be next to
nothing st all. We quote what it says on
this last head
.sThe present price of Ohio superfine flour
10 Eugland is equal to 81 so in gold. This
would not justify the payment OF over 81 as
in gold, in this market, for that description
OF -four, while it sold yesterday at 50 SO,
and was held 10 many cases as high as
50 1000 in currency. high, therefore,
as is the premium on gold, the initiation
10 the price of flour Is greater. In view OF
all these facts, and the further fact that
supplies OF -four are large, the effect OF
permanent decline in gold upon prices may
readily be imagined. Spectators are
standing upon a mere shell, through which
they may break at any time and disappear
out OF sight. These remarks apply also to
other articles OF food. The great TACT that
we have large stocks and good harvests,
may be lost sight OF now, but the time is
not far distant when theories will give way
to realities. aud then men who imagine
themselves the pOssessors of fortunes, will
see their riches disappearing on the wings
of the morning, aud their own recklessns SIS
will be the ooly cause for surprise.
The New York Commercial AdDertissr,, of
Thursday evening takes somewhat sim
liar view of the state of the produce mar
ket. It observes that the speculation ma
MIA in the produce market has absorbed a
large amount of the available resources OF
lenders, and prices have been run up TO
such an uuna tural pitch that there is now
\ general expectation OF a produce panic
which creates an indisposItion to loan more
money for speculative MOVEMENTS in thai
direction"

The Whe cling Sanitary Fair

We attended and witnessed the closing
of the Wheeling Sanitary Fair, on Satur.
day. 1t is altogether unnecessary Tor US
to tell about what We saw there. for We
presume almost all of our readers looked in
on it during the two weeks IL was in pro-
gress, aud know all about il; but we must
bear testimony to the unselfsh zeal with
which the Union people OF Wheeling pros
ecuted II 10 the end. Many of the mer-
chants, during all this time, never went to
their stores az all, but lett their books sud
goods TO be managed by others, aud gave
their whole time TO the sacred aud glorious
parpose for which the Fair was inauRura.
ted The ladies, too, worked like heroes
and a large degree of the success attendant
upon the Fsir is due to their Efforts.
Tie receipts, We understand, will foot up
some $25, 900 or $50 600.
