The Foreign Demand for Breadslulrs.

The War in Europe has already caused a
considerable advance in the price of bread.
stuiis in this country; and there are good and
weighty reasons which induce us to believe
that there will be a large and active demand
for our grain and flour by the people of
Europe.
The London Times recently asserted that
the wheat crop of Great Britain would be
less than three-lourths of an average crop.
Also, that the severe drought Of June had re-
duced the hay crop more than one half. Eng
land always looks to the United States to sup
ply any deficiency of food and as we shall
have surplus to spare il is evident that we
must feed the English people, to greater or
less extent, until she gathers another harvest.
The crop reports in France exhibit poor
or harvest than in England The drought
has been so severe that grain.felds, pastures
and forests have been literally burned up.
To corroborate this wholesale destruction of
grain and vegetable crops in France, the
English newspapers draw attention to the
startling fact that France plunges into war
with a sad deficiency in her grain crops
with a grainery not half filled. A writer in
the London Economist estimates the loss of
wheat by the drought in France at fifty mil.
lion bushels Here is another market for
American breadstuifs. France, even with
peace and general prosperity, would have to
purchase large quantities Of food for her peo-
pie. But with war upon her hands, and per.
haps upon her own territory, she must
send her ships across the Atlantic for both
grain and -four As Prussia has very
small naval power there is little danger of
her capturing French merchantmen on the
Atlantic
The wheat deficiency in Europe is not con.
fined to England and France. Reports from
Spain, and portion of Germany indicate
third less crop than usual. Austria, Hungary
and Russia have abundant crops. But these
nations, with prospect Of being drawn into
the Franco-Prussian contest will endeayor to
hold their surplus grain productions for their
own consumption, Hence, the most available
and advantageous market for Europe to sup
ply herself with breadstuffs is in this country
We have no particular desire 10 see -four,
corn or other grain advance in price. The
laboring people Of the United States are now
paying as much for these necessities as Their
income will warrant. Still, we are satisfied
that there will be liberal foreign demand
for our breadstuiis before winter sets in and
as the demand increases. the price OF these
staples must materially advance.

The Next Congress.

The United States Senate will be in the
control of the Republicans for at least four
years longer and probably for six. The
House Of Representatives is different. In
the present House there are GO Democrats /;
90 more would give them a majority, and
they hope to gain more than that number
this autumn. Their leaders at New York
and Washington cipher out gain of 65, of
which one is to come from each Of the States
of Maine, Massachusetts, and Connecticut.
Their chief gains they expect to make in New
York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and the Southern
States. The result of the recent judicial
election in New York gave them great cour-
age and they declare that there are not more
than eight or ten districts in that State which
the Republicans feel assured of carrying. In
Ohio there are quarres among the local poll
ticians in several districts and much hard
feeling on the tariff question which will
work in favor of the Democrats. In the
South they hope to make nearly clean
sweep" The carpet-baggers have killed the
Republicans in that section, they say In
North Carolina their hopes have been fully
realized, but it will not be so in New York
or in all the Southern States. The fifteenth
amendment will give the colored vote chance
to elect Republican to Congress from Della
ware, two or three in Maryland, one or two
in Kentucky, and it may turn four or five
doubtful districts in Pennsylvania, New Jer-
sey, New York and Ohio. AT the worst, the
Republican party ought to come out Of the
fight with fair working majority in the
House, and small majority will be far better
than the vast, unwieldy, quarrelsome majority
they have had for the past six years, We
expect the Democrats to muster about no
votes in the next House, though they may
not get more than 100.

Among the considerations which give
special Importance to the Franco Prussian
war is the fact that both of these powers

every possible means. And it is generally

were ever devised, Both in cannon and small
arms France has been making these improve.

carried on so privately that the public can

to have rifle much more efficient than the
Prussian needle gun; and sort of light
cannon more destructive than anything that
has ever been directed against infantry or
