From the 0ttaru {Gan.) Times, Aua. 10.
For weeks past intelligence has reached the
city, from time to time, Of tie fearful fires
that we're raging unchecked in the woods, de-
stroymg fences, haystaeks, barns, and latter
" houses. At later date, the smoke from
the extensive conf agratiun raging darkaned
the horizon, and during tho day the view on
eyely side Tas darkened by heavy, dark banks
Of blsck-looking clpude.
Last evening the grand eliminating point
was reached, and Ottava, indeed, experienced
frightfal night, which. TO be appreciated.

been slowly gotting worry thick-in fact, at

across the City Hail square. At noon, how

Into the city came tho smoke, rolling and

dashed about the city. Windows everywhere

know this, nor railroad official of any
road running into Chicago that is not fully
avaro Of it, nor merchant in the city who
docsnot feel it in his pocket. It is difficult
always to change the channel of trade,
and it is never done except for good and
sufficient reasons, But when once done,
the:very difficulty Of doing it makes it all
the more difficult to cause it to return to
its old roadway. If Chicago loses its trado
in grain, the possibility Of its doing so is
certainly very serious,-it will be
very long, We venture to say, be-
fore she RECEIVERS it again. The city
is not yet SO old, nor its commerce
SO established, that it can see without
alarm IN important branch OF its trade,
that, indeed, to which it mainly owes its
existence md Importance, gradually leay-
ing it. Putting aside, for the moment, all
discussion Of questions Of detail in regard
to railroads, and elevators, and hot grain,
and inspection, md the rest, the question
underlying all these-How shall we carry on
this business SO TINT VIC can retain tits
the one now most in order. Manifestly
thopresent way is the wrong way, and, tosay
nothing of the rights of shippers, it is for
our interest, Of the railroads, who arc the

one. If they will not do so, they must e1-

TIE GRAIN TRADE OF CHICAGO,

We have received a letter from respect-
able graiu-dealing firm, in Rochelle, H.,
who assure us that they shipped, last week,
to this city four cars of barley, clean,
sound, and bright, and which weighed, sac-
cording to samples which they still retain,
49 to ~ lbs to the bushel. The Chicago
inspectors inspected this grain as No. 3,
pronouncing it not good enough for No. ..
The comment of The Rochelle grain-dea1-
ers, on this fact, very naturally, is s'Oh.
for road to Milwaukee, or some other
point where VIC could get justice done and
not lie robbed
Now; whether this particular barley was,
or wns not, good enough to be pissed
as No. ?, We, OF course, do
not know, though We have NO reason
for supposing that our correspondents
would state anything but the exact truth.
But this we do know, that their complaint,
as general one, is well-founded, md that
tho railroads leading to Chicago, in their
method of dealing with tho grain which
comes TO this market, are arousiug feel
ing of intense dissatisfaction throughout
the Northwest. There Is not an elevator
man, or railroad man, or an intelligent
member of the Board Of Trade, who does
not know tdis to be the fact, that the trade
Of this town, in grain, is already very Sc
rionsly affected, and that it has become,
within the year past, the object Of ell

The finest specimen Of exaggeration
since FnlstafTs wonderful exploit at Gads-
hill against the nine men in buckram is
that of the French under MacAlahon, as
described by A1r. Amedee Archard, in his
letter to the Paris Afoniteur. "Sixty
thousand Germans" " he says, "threatened
the position occupied by Marshal aIacMa-
hon, and endeavored TO pass between Reich
shofen and Worth This column he easily
checked. Then fresh corps of $1,000
issued from the forest Of Worth, which had
concealed its march, and threw its dense
columns on the French regiments in front
of Worth. T@enty-three Thousand men
thus found themselves in the presence Of
10000, provided with an immense amount
Of artillery" We are gravely told that,
after the battle had lasted several hours
between the $4,000 French and 1e0, 900
Germans, the latter being unable to make
any impression on the former, tsabout .
o'clock in the afternoon, third corps
d'ornlee Of Germans, this time $4,000
strong, arrived, and, passing behind Eber-
bach, which had been abandoned, sought
to swamp the AInrshals decimated diyis-
ions, and TO cut of the line of retreat upon
Haguenau and Sayerne." Then it was that
the French, $4,000 in number, retired in
the presence Of the 194, 900 Germans.
Such accounts may answer foz the con-
sumption Of the Parisian mob, and the
fools who believe any thing related in re-
gard to French prowess and German in.

commenced, were IN the habit Of Boosting

to compare with the Story of the iiioniteurt
