THE GRAIN TRADE.-On coming to
the office on Friday morning, we counted
on Buffalo street, between Sth and 9th,
tweaty-seUen teams all loaded with wheat.
AS each load contains on an average IS
bushels, the amount standing for sale on
one block, was 945 bushels almost 900.
One of our heaviest grain buyers, on a
close estimate, figured the number of
loads brought to the City that day, at
500, making sum total of serenteen
thousand fire hundred bushels of grain
sold on the street in one day! Besides
this there came team after team loaded
with other country produce. and in front
Of the two barns of Mr. Samuel Hall and
Mr.. Morse, we counted at one time 16
loads OF hay. IF there are any cities in
northern Wisconsin that can show larg-
er grain trade than this, We should like
to hear from them.

MARINE-On Thursday afternoon last
the tug LeUiatlan arrived off our harbor
having in tow the propeller Equator and
the schooner John We6Jer. The Equa-
tor went ashore on one of the Manltous
last Fall, and until now all efforts to re-
move her had proved futile. She was
considerably battered up and was on her
way to Chicago for rebuilding. The
schooner John Weber was picked up in
a leaking condition, and was being taken
TO Milwaukee to be repaired. The two
crafts lay at anchor during the continu-
ance of the storm, while the tug came
inside. The propeller and schooner were
supplied with steam pumps.

Mr.. JOHN BARNES has very kindly
presented us with a metallic reversible
lamp shade which is really very useful
novelty. When all the leaves are down
the shade is perfect in throwing the
light downward, while it is so fixed that
you can revise any leaf, thus throwing
the reflection on any object you may
please. We would advise our friends to
give Mr.. Barnes call and examine his
many new goods and buy one of the me.
metalie shades at all events.

YORK STREET presents much hand
somer appearance since being lowered,
and the new sidewalks level. We observe
that the grading was suspended when it
had reached 9th street, and wonder
whether it is to be left in that condition
or not. At present there is an embank-
ment some four feet in height, and travel
has become almost impossible on that
account. Seeing that this has been the
case for two weeks. is it not time to see
to its removal?
