The demand was better to-day, though
many operators were at the races, and the
market evidenced considerable strength,
except for low and strict cotton, which was
more literally offered. Offers of 221c on
bright middling were declined, though
some small lots approaching strict middling
were picked up at that price. A list Of 25
bales good middling changed hands at 23c.

The New York World says, aud indica-
lions largely favor its premises:
1t is well known that our stock of four
is reduced very low, while of wheat. NOT
withstanding the liberal receipts by rail.
the quantity in store has been reduced
about 200, 900 bushels in the past week.
Several large vessels have been chartered
within the past few days to load with -four
or wheat to ports of Great Britain. the
south Of Europe and to South America.
The shipments of several thousand barrels
OF Hour to Antwerp, and wheat to Spain
and Portugal, which we now notice are not
frequent incidents to our export trade in
breadstuffs. The scarcity and high price
Of corn Is stimulating the consumption of
wheat, especially in the South and the
British proyinces-as the lower grades of
wheat flour are selling at about the price of
common cornmeal, and it may be safely
estimated that the consumption is now
thirty per cent larger than a year ago.
Corn proves to be very short crop, al
though reported an average one by the
Agricultural Bureau; and certainly spring
wheat encountered as many damaging in
| fluences as corn.
Receipts of wheat at the Western mar
kets show large falling off as compared
with last year-fully twenty per cent. The
free export demand has set in a month
earlier, and is more speculative now than
then. These are the circumstances which
favor a rise. The obstacles thereto are the
slow returns of speculative confidence and
the large stocks of wheat in store. Both,
however, are in process of removal The
considerations which are above stated have
SO far renewed speculation that the West
ern markets have become excited; while as
to the stocks in store, they were, in three
weeks, ending the 23d inst, reduced more
than 1000, 600 bushels. The demand fol
export and consumption at the principal
markets of the North and West cannot fall
much below 1000, 600 bushelsper week fol
the balance of the season, and receipts
must be materially increased to maintain
this supply. 1t is not improbable, there
fore, that the renewed activity we have no
ticed may bring higher prices and much re.

The Plymouth Democrat. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1869-1941, 1870-01-20
Why DIR. HOar Was Not Confirmed.

The true reason why the Senate refused
to confirm the nomination of Mr. HOar
as Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court Is leaking out at last. The surly
Attorney General had the audacity to
question the infallibility of Congress this
was his crime, and for this he was made
the recipient of deliberate and unusual
affront. The Washington correspondent
of the Hartford Conn Times says:
The true reason Of his rejection will
not he sent over the country by telegraphic
dispatches. It will be claimed that he
was rejected for the reason that he be-
lOnged at the North and in Massachu-
sets. But that State has no Justice upon
the bench, and the Senate cares nothing
for this reason. With the South full of
Northern men in every executive office,
and sustained there by the Senate, very
few people can be made to belive that Mr.,
HOar was rejected on account of his local
Ity. The true reason is this: He has ex-
pressed opinions of the uncOnstitutiOnality
OF some of the acts of Congress, and he
does not like the Radical plan of subju-
eating the Judiciary. This killed him off.
The government is to considerable ex-
tent already revolutionized. The States
and the people have little power, and CEN
tralization will be supreme. Already you
will notice that Farnsworth, Dawes and
bingham are alarmed, and have entered
protests as boldly as they dare. But they
dare not say much, for tyranny is so great
here that Republicans who are really
alarmed dare not speak boldly and freely.
But good many of them are shaking
with fear. There has not been q good
feeling between the President and Con
gress for some time, and Grant is now very
much incensed.
The Plymouth Democrat. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1869-1941, 1870-01-20

Mr.. QUfNBY having noticed in the Bee
Journal a query as to how often hives
should be examined in the course of the
season, replied thus in the Rural Neao
Yorker If the propOunder of this Ques-
ton fears to injure his stock by too fire.
quent examination, let him be reassured-
there is not the slightest danger. Neglect
has destroyed more, thousand fold, than
the mere opening of the hives. Ny advice
is, "know the condition of your bees at
all times" If this questioner wants to
keep them with as little attention as pos
sible, counting their care an irksome task,
am afraid he will soon be one who had
bad luck" They do require liberal
amount of care. WercI to commence bee
keeping again, should do as l have done,
be careful to let few days go by without
examination and study Your success
will largely depend on the accuracy and
extent of your knowledge. You know
what years of study and labor are required
to make a good engineer What would
you think of a man who should try to run
| a locomotive without them? Well, with.
out willingness to do something like this
don't undertake bee keeping. Knowing
is the first and indispensable condition o.
successful doing everywhere. So, if you
are beginner, look at your bees every
day the bees will stand it and you neeC
it. Ofcourse, five hundred hives in double
that number Of apiaries, cannot be seen 81
often without great expense. Perhap
