The GRAIN CRoPs ABROxD.-It is an
nounced that Russia, hitherto one of the lar
gest grain supplying counties in the world,
has recently entered the grain markets of
Germany 'as q purchaser. This unusual cir
cumstanoes is attributed to the short crop
in Russia, arising not from defective har-
vest, but from the result of emaneipating the
peasantay. The immense surplus, which
heretofore made Russia the granary of
Europe, was produced by the large land
owners who worked the serfs up to their full
capacity of labor. The serfs are now their
own masters, and only, cultivate,enough grain
to supply their own personal wants, aRdsome-
times mot even that quantity. The AREA
sown IN wheat is therefore gradually deereas-
ing, and provinces Which formerly were large
exporters have for several years been obliged
to import food. The Government elso has
been obliged to purchase and store up large
Quantities of grain to provide against the
consequences ofthe conduct of the ,efnanci.

locomotives are using the coal, which con-
tains, by analysis, go per cent. of carbon, 10
of water in combination, and % of infamma-

earning from 81 to $12 day in currency
Last winter, coal sold at Omaha for $2750 a

The MEMPHIS AND Ell PAso RAILROAD
The following concerning the Memphis and
El Paso railroad, appears in the New York
World of the LIST instant:
The recent action of the Memphis and
New Orleans Commercial Convention has
turned public attention strongly in the direc.
ton of the Southern Pacific railroad. In this
connection we learn that arrangements have
been made to push forward the building of
the Memphis and Ell Paso and Pacific rail-
road during. the present summer, in the an
sicipation of aid from Congress at the coming
session: Engineering parties have been
placed in the field along the line OF road, and
q strong force of laborers collected for the
grading at various points. The company has
decided to use heavy iron and powerful en-
gines, in order that the highest rate Of speed,
with safety and regularity, can be obtained,
so as to place Norfolk, Va, and San Diego
five days apart.
The IRON for the section of one hundred and
fifty miles from Jefferson and westward will
be shipped from Dunkirk and Ant werp dur
ing the months of June, July and August,
and it is expected that oae hundred miles in
Texas will be finished within the next six
