Wheat-The Present Scarcity and
EtffE Coming CrOn.

The present high price of -four and
the small stock in the country. makes
it matter of much more than ordi-
nary interest and solicitude to note
the prospects of the incoming. wheat
crop. Thus far, our adyices from all
sections are that the indications were
never better for bountiful yield, but
the contingencies which may yet re-
suit in failure or partial failure are
SO many, that all will look forward
with much anxiety. The West very
greatly needs fruitful harvests this
year, especially of wheat IF we have
them, we will be able safely to wealth
er the threatening financial storm
but failure in the wheat and other
grain crops will be very disastrous in
the present critical condition of trade.
On the present scarcity of wheat we
extract from the Cincinnati Price
Current some remarks of general in.
terest:o Huc .olra. .~
| y The scarcity of wheat, now being de.
veloped, has at length produced a mark ed
advance in this article, and flour and
prices have already reached a point quite
startling, and far beyond anything known
The Evansville journal. [volume] (Evansville, Ind.) 1866-1870, 1867-04-13

in this market for nifty years. And this
is not the result of speculation, but on the
contrary, the advance has taken place in
the face of the prevailing belief of specu-
Iators for they could not perceive how
-four or wheat could possibly advance
much above the rates current the last two
months. That theresfs an absolute dearth
of wheat in the country is no longer mat
ter of doubt, for it has been rendered, by
incontrovertible facts, an absolute GER
tainty. Present prices must greatly cur
tail the consumption, but it is, notwith-
standing this, very clear that the supply
will be inadequate to meet the diminished
demand, and this will become the more
manifest from week to week during the
sixteen or eighteen weeks yet to come'be-

The Great Eastern.

From the n. Y. World, 10th inst.l
The Great Eastern arrived yester-
day with flying colors amid the salutes
of the shipping in the bay, and soon
after II o'clock anchored at the foot
sofC Fourteenth street. There was a
considerable gathering on some of
the piers to see the great ship pass,
but there was nothing like the enthu-
siasm with which she was received
when she first came out in June, 1860,
or again in 1862 The novelty of the
Leviathan has passed away, though
undoubtedly she will be visited by
thousands before she sets sail again.
No ship that was ever built has been
the subject of so many articles, and.
unfortunately for the reputation of
the Great Eastern, no little OF the
newspaper comment has been on ac-
count of the many mishaps and mis-
fortunes that have attended the career
of the Sc Big Blunder." But her valu-
able services in the laying of the
cable, and her now assured success as
an eutireyl safe as well as magnificent
passenger steamer, will cover up all
the accidents and blunders of her few
| first years.

The Southern Relief-Pr0mpt Action
Needed, 100

There can be no doubt of the ready
disposition of the people of Evans
vile to contribute literally for the
relief of the people of the South, who
are suffering for the necessaries Of
life. IF our city does not make large
donation, it will be because the persons
who have been appointed to make the
collections do not promptly and faith
fully attend to their duties. In few
instances the Ward Committees have
attended to their work with
commenable energy, and the re-
Suits that they have been successful.
But as far as we can learn, there has
been too little effort made; a number
of the committees have neglected the
matter entirely, and others have ac-
complished but little. We are, .satis-
fed that if the canyassers had COM
menced their work the morning after.
the Relief Meeting on Monday night,
and followed it up with spirit and en-
ergy, thcre might now be In the hands
of the Treasurer ten thousand dollars;
and within few days bread and meat
in large quantities would be on the
way to feed the furnishing. But with
the apathy manifested, we fear the con-
tribution will fall far below that sum.
We think no time should be lost.
The cry for bread is an urgent one,
and demands prompt relief. If
then the Ward Committees, which
have been appointed, cannot or
will not make the canvass assigned
them, we hope the Executive Com
mittee will supply their places with
gentlemen or ladies who will, and let
us at once make our contribution and
send it forward to the starving people
of the South.

Devoted Wives of Noted Drunkards.

The Eoen5ng GdzStte, IN dfspatch
from Washing on, says that 7 Mrs
Salisbury appealed personally to Sen
ators not to press the resolution ex.-
polling her husband, promising to
man could resist such an appeal. 1t
is impossible to think of such an in
cident without emotion. Mr.. Sauls-
bury is a man of very marked abili-
ties-one of the ablest, most cogent
speakers of the Senate, of fine per-
sonal appearance, tall, erect, dark
complexion, with piercing black eyes
and jet-b black hair, courtly and i'm
pressive in his manner, and of noble
and generous impulses. But for the
disease which afiicts and overmasters
him, he would, be one of the most in
fuential public men of. the Senate
and the country. Yet he is saved
from ignominious expulsion only by
the sympathy felt for his noble and
devoted wife. Another Senator, whose
term has just expired-a man of clear
intellect, finished culture and fasci-
mating manners, but cursed by the
same affection, was tolerated in the
Senate only from a similar motive.
One of the most touching sights to be
seen in Washington during the ses-
sion. was the presence in the gallery
of his wife and daughter, waiting
night after night. often till long past
midnight, anxious and distressed, to
accompany him to their home. It
may be said to his credit, that, what
ever he may have been to the rest of
the world, he was never anything but
obedient and tender to
