KpeeuIntIon. InCorn.

There have been heavy speculatiOns
in corn within the last two weeks.
Perhaps the excitement was never be-
fore eIualled in that commodity. Tho
stock on hand in New York has been
found short of tho demand for export
and domestic consumtIon nj this time
Of year. This discovery has been grad
uaiiy coming TO light lorseveral weeks
Pnst, and the price has been stiHening
all the while. Some OF the spectators
have made immense profits. On tho
lat Of September last corn WAS quoted
in Chicago at Loc. per bushel ON tho lat
Of October at G1c., and on yesterday our
quotations report 1t at 81 O3. Tho nuc-
tu"tions in its price have boon violent
some days. For instance on Friday
last the market opened strong nt o9aa0I1
cents, an advance Of cents on tho ,Inv
before, but tho market reacted after tho
New York dispatches, and tho report
that the cable had brought news OF n
decline Of Ga9d on corn in LIverpool
created almost n panic, NO much 30 that
the market closed at 4a414c. lower than
it opened, buyers Offering only O5 cents.
Some new sold at IS cents. II was also
lower in Buffalo, selling down to 81 I8a
! 10. SincG then it hnB acted and react
ed. hut at advancing prices. There IL

VIM Cons.Itnte. q NcUrpnper,


Our rebel cotemPorary has been in
clined to blow its horn of late as to its
character in a newspaper way. 1t
Plumes itself considerably on some new
type ana "a larger sheet than formerly.
We shall certainly not detract i'm
properly from whatever merits our
cotempOrary can claim. Neither shall
VIE go TO work to show how small is the
claim that can really be made. We
wish the Register to understand that We
consider the city, the State, and the
world wide enough for both of us. But
we may point our neighbor to the fact
that one of the first essentials OF a
newspaper is to furnish the news. Some
time ago both papers published the
European cable news, now those dis
patches are TO I've found exclusively in
the INrELLIGENcER- Our cotemporarv
backed down from their publication.
not caring TO incur The expense, and left
Us 10 furnish the reading public with
news from all parts OF the civilized
world alone and sinGle-handed. And
as in respect to the cable news, so il has
been in regard 10 other news, the mar
Eets. for instance. Only very lately
hss orr contemporary been giving the
ordinary quotations, and very fire.
quentIy We have observed wholesale
omissions in its general news dispatch
-, on the principle, We presume, that
the less matter set up for its columns
the lighter the expense for composition.
We suggest that before great deal of
horn-hlowiuG ia INDUCED in, the Regis
ter should endeavor To inspire itself
with sufficient enterprise and liberality
TO furnish its readers with the ordinary
news of the day.

adjacent, without being restricted to any dis
tanoe from the shore" This treaty being now
abrogstsd, We of oourse fall back upon all the
difaculnes that preceded II, and that so nearly
induced war in the period between 1845 and
1852. The issue between the two nations Is
upon the Interpretation Of the treaty as
to tho coast line. We eco by the course
now taken by the government that 1t Is
disposed to uphold with becoming firm
ness the view We have always taken.
On the other hand, 1t Il doubtful whether the
British government y disposed to uphold at
present the ridiculous Interpretation Of Its
former law of1oers-an Interpretation which
has given rise even In England to the SUPPOSE
ton that the Grown lawyers had never read the
treaty they pretended to interpret
A point likely to Affect the question materi-
ally is the diminished interest Of Great Britain
in the provinces, AZ well a. her diminished
interest In the fisheries, due to the different
view that all governments now take on this
subject The government organ in London al
ready says:-"N Il exceedingly doubtful
whether Il IL desirable for any nation TO main
tain in these days the policy Of excluding any
body from the privilege Of fshing in the sea-"
Will England, then, 60 to war for such . policy,
whom tits Canada that is to profit by the war,
and England that Is to pay for iR A British
commission lately reported against this policy
in case Of the fisheries on the British coast, and
the freedom Of those fisheries is to be extended
tn France. And II Ia scarcelv probable.D saws
the London Post, "that this country would con-
sent to make any great sacrifices to support,
several thousand miles away, o principle
which 1t is doing its best to abolish on its own
shores" Such is the view taken in England,
and with such feeble interest in the fisheries
it seems hardly possible that the British
government will fight to maintain in their favor
the most absurd Interpretation Of treaty ever
put forth.
