The Wheat Market.

The impression seems TO be general
that "hard pan" he's been reached 10 the
wheat market, and few operators pro-
fess to be contemplating an advance in
prices. The grounds on which this con.
olusion is arrived al are that English
farmers are largely disseminating the cul
ture Of wheat this year in view of the
increasing supply from other countries,
and the uncertainty of the wheat crop in
that climate. This being tho case, the
demand on foreign countries for the sup
ply Of Great Britain and Ireland Vill be
largely increased. 1t is believed, too,
that in tho United States, except on the
Pacific coast, the planting Of wheat will
be much less this year than last, owing
to the losses suffered by the farmers on
the crops of the two last years. Ameri-
can farmers are turning their attention to
corn, and pork, and Aaxsecd, in some
quarters almost exclusively, and the pros
pect is that we shall have much less
wheat to oGsr for export in 1871 than
now.
There 10, however. no fear that the
British market will not be literally sup.
piled. In California the promise is good
for larger wkeat crop than ever, and We
believe the same is true on the European
continent. Prices can scarcely Be ex
pected to exhibit a vesy large advance 10
Englssd, and If the United States ha,
any wheat to offer for export the Liver
pool quotations will determine the price
10 our homo markets. ",.'-
There remsins but one way in which
the farming community can hope to make
wheat growing on large scale profitable
10 the near future. That is. 10 . reduc
tion Of the cost Of sending theis propert,
to market The prediction Of 81,

j. Wesley Barr, Esq, of Edgc6eld,
famous watermelon raiser, writes, to the
Edgeacld Advcrtiser, giving bis plan as
follows -.-
Take soil that is not poor. prefer
that of a good character, with deep
sandy soil and clay subsoiI. IN Feb
ruary or March break the land deep with
a lull tongue or small shovel, SO as not
TO turn under the vegetable mould
About the middle of Aprii, further
North later] break the land again deep
and we'll, to and across Then lay off
each way ten feet with a long old fash.
ioned shovel plow. In each check draw
out all the loose dirt to the depth Of
eight or ten inches, and twelve 10 diane
ter. Then take one peck or ten quarts
Of the best, strongest and we'll rotted
stable (horse) manure, particularly avoid
ing straw or litter, and spread in the hole.
Then with the hoe walk round and round
drawing in the top soil upon the manure,
avoiding tue incorporation Of mixture Of
earth and manure, until you have elatcd
a bill four inches above the common
surface, and eighteen In diameter. Upon
this hill drop four or five seeds, and cover
one inch deep. In clay soil it is needless
to open the hole so deep as in sandy /;
from four inches to six is enough all Of
the orther preparations salEe as in sandy
soil.
When the seeds come up, Immediately
break the soil around the plant; and
when the third leaf begins to make its
appearance, plow and hoe, thinniag to two
stalks. The work should be done SO as
not to bave long intervals from one work.
Ing to another, carefully keeping down
the grass aud weeds. When the vines
commence to run, thin down to one vine
in a hill. When the vines have run,
eighteen inches each way, they should be
laid By with the sweep. But keep up the
hoeing constantly, being particular not to
7movc she vine nor cut the cliugers, for
nature sends them out for protection to
the vine against the storm.

B4QHIS Society, which confines its bust

of persons resident In the West Indies,
presents advantages such as no other As

field, can offer. Its scale of Premiums,
although considerably lower than that OF
any other Company, has nevertheless been
found quite adequate to provide for the

THE EUROPEAN WAR.
A Fair Presentation OF HIstOr.
icaI Facts.


Nations, like individuals, must
stand or fall, when the verdict of
enlightened opinion IS made up, by
their life record. The prejIdg-
ments bipartisan hate, the offspring
of international jealousy, tho dog
matisms of ignorant prejudice, and
the babblings of poetical dreamers,
must all give way TO the sober Sec
ond~thOught of enlightened humans
ity. The present contest between
Prussia and France Gao no more be
narrowed down to a mere dynastic
struggle between the Hohenzollern
and Bonaparte families than could
the wars of the Dutch Republic, or
the contest of Wallenstein and Gus
tavus Adolphus.
There r points of honor which
~self-respect will permit no man, and
no nation, to cOncede, and there are
questions in European diplomacy.
a decision of which is of more value
than thousands of precious lives.
The restoration of the Unity of Italy,
with Rome as Its capltal;r the expul-
sion of the Turk from Europe, and
the establishment of the Greek
empire; the freedom of Ireland, the
autonomy of Poland and the read
justment of Germany, are matters OF
vital Importance affecting all the
worlds future.
The stolidIty of England, and the
sluggIshness Ct Germany have Civ
en- way, the warning genius of Italy
has been awakened. the reforms
that have constituted the European
society of to-day owe their exist
ence mainly TO the freedom ard IN
clsiveness of French thought.
If the question be asked, "What
nation done the most for Europe"
history replies: The Gaul struck
the terrible blows that most effecUu.
ally shattered the rottenness of the
Western Roman empire. Charles
the Great, with his army Of Franks,
first brought Europe ont of the
deluge Of barbarism which followed
the overthrow of Rome, gave secu-
rity to the authority of the Chris
tian bishops, and did what thegreat
Cesar could not do, namely: He
rescued Europe from the savagery
and brutal ignorance maintained by
the German chiefs, and gave the
nations In its stead order and eIvlli-
cation. The power of France,
through Charlemagne, became the
successor and rlghtful heir of the
crown and scepter of ancient Rome.

"John Cartwright, our nominee for
