CHICAGO, July 23.--The week just
closed has been one of great excite
ment in commercial circles and to
many has proved disastrous. Wheat,
which on Tuesday last reached 81 %,
cash and 81 42 sellers option in
August, to-day landed at 81 % cash
and 81 10 sellers, option in August.
Victims generally of this revulsion in
prices are farmers who rushed
into speculations with the same avid
ity, but with much less Judgment and
discretion. as our commercial opera
tors. Transactions of the Western
Union Telegraph Offices, as reported
here, have been larger during the past
week than ever before. This was es-
pecially the case In this city; each

Fire.--A Woman Burned to Dsath---The

and Prussia.

CHICAGO, July pa fire occurred
last night, commencing about six
O'Clock, which destroyed a large
frame building on Canal street
which was occupied as pork
packing, lard rendering and residence.
The total loss is 10000. After the
fire had been subdued, and the fire.
men had gone to the engine-house, it
was discovered that Mrs. Kelter, re-
siding in the building, was missing,
and after searching through the ruins
for some time her remains were dis
covered burnt to a crisp.
The discussion before the Irish Lit
erary Society, last night, terminated
about II O'Clock, and the presiding
officer decided that the PrusSian side
had the best of the argument, but the
Irish audience was evidently in SYM
pathy with France and a vote was
taken, resulting in 40 votes for France
and % for Prussia.
