The Circular of a well known Cincinnati

is as follows:
To the Editors of the Union and American;
CINCINNATI, Nov. 18.-The weather dur
inc the past week hiss been very favorable
and the slaughterers and packers were bu-
sy. The demand was good all the week
but at lower prices, and oWlngto the hoer-
al receipts prices gave way, closing quiet
at 5000. 40 for fair to good packers hogs.
Choice butchers sell at $3.50. In giving
the receipts to date, we shall go back to
Oct. 20, as at that time, the packing season
was really begun. The receipts to-day were
8. $50 head. for the week A., $50, and since
Oct. 20, S5,523. Deduct from this the
shipments 5, 779 head, and we have IS, IA
head for packers and city use. The quail
ty of those received thus far is very fine.
The market for the product is also con-
siderable lower and we think our cores
poudents will find that our prices are much
lower than any of the large packing points.

Death of Major Clare,

Major VIM. Glare died at his residence
near this city last evening in the thirty-frst
year of his age.
Major Glare was native Of Tuscaloosa,
Ala, but when he was quite young his
parents moved 10 Washington City, where
his mother and sisters now reside, his
father having died about twelve years ago.
He was educated at and was graduate Of
the college at Georgetown, d. G. Before
arriving at manhood hs went to HUnts-
vile, Ala, and entered the law Office OF
Gen. L. P. Walker Remaining under the
tuition of Gen. Walker, until he was adj
mitted TO the bar, he then located at Gads-
den, Cherokee county, Ala, and began the
practice Of law. The war soon began, and
he promptly volunteered in the Confeder-
ate service. The regiment to which his
company belonged was sent to Pensacola
and remained there under Gen. Bragg until
that officer with his command joined Gen.
Albert Sydney johnson, at Oorintb. In the
battle Of Shiloh, Major Clare was severely
wounded. After his recovery he was ap-
pointed Assistant Inspector General, and
assigned to duty on the staff Of the Com
msnding General Of the Army of Tennes-
see. In this position he continued during
the remainder Of the war. He was in all
the battles fought by Gems. Bragg, 10.
Johnston and Hood He was wounded two
or three times after Shiloh. During the
war he married an accomplished lady OF
this city. After the war he located here
and began the practice of law, in which be
was unusually successful. Something over
9 year ago he had q severe attack, and
although for several days believed to be 10
the very jaws of death, he finally recovered
but with a shattered constitution. In his
last illness he was confined to his house for
| several weeks. He was not, however. be-
lieved TO be dangerously illuntil few days
before his death, when partial paralysis be-
gan, proceeding from softening of tie
brain. This paralysis extended until it
| invaded the entire system and death re-
| lisved him of the Thousand natural shocks
that flesh is heir to.
Mai. Glare was gentleman, native and
10 the manner born. He was as gallal {
and courteous as a knight of the olien
| time. Prepossessing in appearance, eie-
CANT in department., highly educated,
brave and generous, he could but be uni
versally esteemed.
To his widowed mother and orphan SIS
ters; 10 his widowed wife and orphan
children, his untimely death comes with a
terrific force which no words can express,
producing heart -rending grief which no
words can assuage. But

Meseorologfcal--Sto and Flood
Signals-Communl TO the

=
Signals-CommunIc 10 the
Governor.
A communication, accompanied by seve-
raj circulars, was received at the Govern
or's Office yesterday, in reference to the
new system of storm and flood signals,
which A. Watson, 462 Maine Avenue, Wash
ington, ID. G., proposes to inaugurate, if
approved by the Secretary of War. Con-
gress, at its last session, passed law, CIV
ing the Secretary of War control of this
matter, and he has already established
meteorological observers at various points
throughout the United States, and is con-
stantly increasing their number. Mr..
Watson proposes to extend this system,
and gives his reasons at length in one of
his circulars, which is headed, ''Storm and
food signals, by means of the telegraph
and cannon, for the benefit of agriculture
and commerce, to be tested by the War
Department in forts and military sta
tons"
He states that it is estimated that more
than one-fonrth Of the corn and hay crops
are annually injured by storms, during
harvest, and if farmers had timely notice
of these storms, much of this injury would
be prevented. By the adoption Of the fol-
lowing plan, he believes this can be effect
ed, at trifing cost
His plan is When storm has formed,
and commences to travel in any certain
direction, the first telegraph station over
which it passes is to send the news to all
the telegraph stations at cities, county
ssats and principal towns, fifty or hundred
miles in advance. At each city, county
ont n. .Sal 4.
kept ready by the officials at the court
house, or by the fire department, and as
soon as news is received of an approaching
storm, the cannon is to be fired three
times, at intervals of one minute,
if tornado. thunder or hail
storm, at intervals of three minutes, if an
ordinary storm is approaching rapidly at
intervals Of sac minutes if an ordinary
storm is approaching slowly, and at
intervals of ten minutes if destructive
river flood IS approaching In large cities
IRE and church bells may also be rung. In
this way intelligence is to be conveyed to
farmers in time of harvest, and they WILL
cease cutting their crops, or gather those
already down, and in this way be protected
from loss. The signals used for storms
may also be used at places along large
river TO give notice of an approaching
food.
Accompanying MIR. Watson's circular
are copies Of Communications to the Sec
rotary of War. by the Mayors of Boston,
New York, Baltimore, Troy, and other
places, asking the Secretary to test Mr..
Watson's plan, at the various forts and ar.
senals in their vicinity. The communica.
ton requests the Governor of Tennessee
if he wishes TO have this system tested il
this State, to enclose Mr.. Watson lettel
to Congress, requesting that the system
may be tested in Tennessee.
Mr.. W. states that he proposes to have
the system tested in season to satisfy the
public of its complete practicability, &c
that this plan may be put into general use
| at the next harvest

ThesFOOd CrOu.

Sufficient data have been received from
all parts of the country, relative to the
crops, to enable us to form a reasonably
correct estimate of the yield. The crops
are not in all respects fully up to the high
est average of former years, but there Is
scarcely any staple that will not yield
sufficient for home consumption, besides
leaving a surplus for expectation. Wheat
ranges from 10 TO 13 per cent below the
very high average of last year, but the
quality is very much better, fact that
goes far to atone for any deficiency that
NAV occur. Then there is still a very
large stock of last years crop on hand, and
and it is possible that some may be lying
over from the previous year. 10 no case,
therefore, will there be any approach to a
scarcity. The surplus will he abundant
for expectation, and there Is little danger
that the market can be depleted, even by
the very large demand, which Is rendered
probable by the continuance of the war.
The corn crop is the best for the last ten
wears. The Northwestern and the Gulf
States have raised very large supply.
The total crop is estimated at 100000, 900
bushels, at an average of thirty-fve bushels
to the acre Corn figures more largely in
the West and South as a commodity for
home condumption than for expectation.
A large crop secures plenty in every farm
homestead and cabin, and assures abund-
anoe of feed for cattle and live stock. AS
result of the large corn crop we may
the refore expect to see fresh and salt meats
reduced from the high figures that have
ruled since the war. In this connection it
il important to state that the supply of fat
cattle in the West exceeds that of former
wears. And this, too, independently OF
the constantly increasing receipts from
Texas. which is rapidly looming up as a
great cattle producing State.
The other crops that conduce 80 largely
to the prosperity of farming, are not I'M
satisfactory. Rye is smaller in quantity,
but better in quality, than last year. Peas
and beans are about an average. The
Potato crop is deficient in every State
from the Mississippi river to the Atlantic
coast. In some of the Western States the
falling off ranges from IL to 36 per cent.
This Is a very large deficiency, and one
that is likely to advance the prices of other
food crops to consumers. The apple crop
is beyond all precedent. In some parts oil
the New England States the yield Is SO
abundant as to scarcely cover the expenses
of picking. -
1t is satisfactory to state that there IS
steady increase of the Southern sugar crop.
In Louisiana the crop languished for the
first few years after the close of the war.
But in that State, and in sexas, the old
plantations are being gradually brought
hinder cultivation. If 20 uutoward event
occurs. this product may regain its former
prosperity sooner than IS anticipated.
The rice crop is also favorable.
