The following brief poem, a con-
tribution to Wisconsin journal, is
equally well Calculated for other
ATTITUDES:
/ know woman, pale and slight,
essf With heart In hopeless mood, l9-
Who often tolls throughout the night
To earn her husbands food.
While he, in strength of ofmanhood's power,
Some gay saloon will seek,
And spend more money in an hour
Than she earns in week.
They have one-rail railways in In

A BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE rovIRGINIA.

In speech made recently at Louis
Vile, KY, the Hon. d. w. Voorhees,,
of Indiana, said:
eff I, on the other hand, was call
ing witnesses for the Democracy, I
would point first to the old State of
Virginia, the most afflicted Of all, the
most torn to pieces of all, with her
male population driven away, her bo-
som thrashed with the thrashing ma
chine of death, from one border to
the other. She has emerged as from
fire of ten-fold heat, but she has.
fallen into the hands of Conservatism
and not of Radicalism, and no Radi-
cal, not even Ben Butler, dares wag
his foul tongue or point his felonious
finger at her. Cheers.l And this l
said to him, too, on the floor of the
House. Virginia, the very head and
front of the struggle on the part of
the South-she in whose bosom lies
more buried valor than in any other
equal space of ground the sun shines
upon--[applausel where heroes sur
passing those that Homer sung of
met and clashed their swords and
bled and died. she on whose fate the
whole South hung, who never falter-
ed, and when her great leaders laid
down their swords all others were
laid down.

WHEAT LOSS IN CHICAG0-ITS Eff
FECTS.

The loss by the Chicago fire OF l ,600,-
by some, will have much effect in en-
hancing the price of breadstuffs gen
orally. 1t does not necessarily fol-
low that rise, if any should occur,
except in the locality immediately
effected, would be permanent. The
loss, though great, is buta very slight
percentage of the grain crop of the
country. The time was when a po-
litical economist of England deemed
it question to be decided by math-
ematics, which was the greater loss,
cargo of provisions or q ship load
of passengers. but the productive ca
pacity of the United States has thrown
such questions out of discussion
The total products of agriculture in
the United States for the year 1860
were valued at 81 1856. .000, 900. For
the year 1870 the value of the same
products was $500, 700, 900 at least.
The loss of 1 600 900 bushels of wheat
at 81. so per bushel would be incon-
siderable in comparison with the val
ne of the products of the country.
But there is a prevailing impression
that the surplus of breadstuffs is not
large enough to stard SO large loss
and yet meet the demands of for
eign market. 1t is q notion, false in
great degree, that foreign market
decides the value of grain, or that it
is the main dependence of the Amer
lean Farmer. The Chicago Journal
of Commerce has been gathering the
figures, and it shows, from official
sources, that during period of thir-
ty-nine years the total exports of the
products of our soil to all foreign
countries have amounted in value to
81 ,006, ,751 gas, or not one-half of the
agricultural yield of the soil for one
year. At this rate the loss in Chica-
go ought not to add much to The val
ue of bushel of wheat. The total
exports of all the breadstuffs and
provisions from American ports in
thirty-nine years, ending in 1860, did
not exceed the value of the corn crop
alone for the three years, 1868, 1863
and 1S70s The dependence upon
foreign ports for market is but
light, the best and most extensive
market being at home. - Union.

In a recent article on the subject
of journalism, Horace Greeley-the
very best authority-says that the
practical printers make the best edl-
tors as there is something in the ear
ly associations of the printing Office
which gives sort of refined culture
to the otherwise well trained Jour-
nalist. Upon the same principle
that the most efficient managers of
great industrial enterprises are those
who have worked their way up
through the subordinate training for
the journalist; it imparts a kind of
sympathy with letters which the mere
scholar does not acquire. The prac-
tical printer who becomes an editor
is apt to be step of the craft, it is
true that the school of the printery
gives the best paragraphist. =
From having gone through che slow
progress of picking up and deposit
ing the individual metallic blocks
that, one by one spell out the words
which express the writer's thought
the printer learns to place value up
on each letter and word, and is very
naturally led to- depreciate o useless
waste of either. Whatever may be
the achievement of schools for jour-
nalists, we believe that the schools
are printing offices and active repor-
torial labors.

The Presidential ipse dlru comes
in dre time, and several of the ceun-
ties Of South Carolinaare under mar
tial law. The people of those coun--
ties do not know what is in store for
them. They are liable to arrest at
any time and without any definite
charge against them. The whim of
a Radical Official is all the excuse that
is necessary for dragging man from
his home, and throwing him into a
prison with common fellons. And
for such outrages there is no redress.
Law is made subordinate to the pow
er of the sword. The door of the
temple of Justice is closed. The peo-
pie have to suffer and endure, and be
as patient as they can. There is mo-
redress, and can be none until a re-,
turn to sense shows the American
people how rapidly their liberties are
departing. The North can look qui-
city on and see these things done i'm
South Carolinas but the people will
learn that the principle which pur--
poses to subject South Carolina, is a.
principle which may subvert the ib-'
critics of the people of Massachusetts,.
or Ohio. This imperial ukass. from.
the head center of centralism, is a,
direct and anticipated result of Con-
gressional legislation, which the New
Departurists accept as final, and
to which they are willingsto .'crook
the pregnant hinges of the knee, "
and lift up no voice in rebuke or con-
demnation. atlanta Su,ss

hlS Heau, as mucn az 10 say tnefe was
no hope.
The gambler sat by the side of the
wounded man, batbed his head, and
staunched the flow Of blood from bis
wound, until the arrival Of his Wife
She came, accompanied by few
friends. and as heroic women bear
their misfortuDes, she bore hers. Not
word of reproach escaped her
words of cheerinlness only came from
her lips, AZ tears conrsed down her
cheeks. TO her inquiry as to the
chances OF her husbands recovery, the
doctor assured her there was no hope,
that the wound was mortal, and that
in few hours the wounded man must
die. She sank down upon her kness,
and invoked the mercy of a forgiving
God upon her dying husband and his
murderer.
The gambler knelt at the side Of
the wounded man, and asked his for
givencss for the wrong he had com
mitted, and also that of his afflicted
wife, which was readily granted.
This" said he, sis for disobeying
the sacred injunction Of my aged

He must not die-he is my brother!"
And the gambler sunk down in a
swoon upon the floor.
The wounded man raised himself
upon his elbows; his glazed eyes
wandered about the room, as if
searcing for some particular person.

William here? /"
The words choked in his throat,
the gurgling blood stopped his utter
ancc, and he sarfk back corpse upon
his pillow.
The wife knet again, but it was be-
side dead body, and invoked the
blessing of God upon his soul and
forgiveness for the murderer.
The gambler awoke from his
swoon, staggered up to the wife, and
said:

Reporter-Good morning, Dir. Bowman.
How is wheat, just nowr
Mr.. Bowman-We il quIet-net been buy
ing for ten days.
What are the ruling prieess
We have been paying from % 10 55 cents, on
the average. Have paid over dollar.
Didn't it sell for s1.1O Iateiyt
A little. Soden got scared q few weeks ago.
Was afraid he would not have enough 70 last,
and paid S1.I0 for a few loads. But that was
too high--too much above other markets. So
den couldn't stand If, nor any one else, except
the farmers who sold the wheat. No more
goes on at those figures. Farmers here want
too high price now. They held on TO last
years crop and got big price in the spring,
and though they want money now they are
unwilling to sell for less than they did then.
How much have you bought.
We have shipped about 10000 bushels to
st. Louis. The trouble is that most of the
wheat offered us here rates only No. 3 there.
Have had some No. 3, and one small lot of No.
/. Have a sample Of the No. 1 in this bag. It
Is not as clean as prime ought to be, either.
Sent q load rated as No. 4-but bought it as
rejected wheat.
Why can't you buy better quality here?
Well, its the farmers themselves who are to
piAmes Tnefr WHeat is running OUT. IAey
are not careful enough about seed, or culti-
waiting. Plant wheat on the same ground too
much. Don't change their seed or ground.
Upland makes the best wheat, II properly
titled. An Ohio or PenhsyIyanfa farmer
would raise spleadid wheat ON Kansas up
land. But they would put more care and
work on it than it generally gets. Upland
wheat will weigh to 0 pounds more per
bushel than bottom wheat. Can be grown
cleaner, too. Each farmer wants the highest
market price for his wheat, regardless of its
quality. We can't do that. Pay according
to the way it rates in st. Louis. They must
seed and plant more carefully il they want the
best prices.
When do you begin buying again:
We viii buy again next week. VIII pay
all we can afford to. The margin now is very
close-reaIly don't pay for handling. The
chineh bug has hurt the wheat this season,
too, and that prevents it from rating as high
as 1t otherwise would.
Not having time to so to Soden's mill, we
can't report the wheat market from that point
of view this week.

ANOTHER CIRCUs.-By an advertisement
elsewhere 1t will be seen that the atlantic
and Pacific eircus'' Will open here on Satur-
day (to-morrow). It Is stated that IL will re-
main here over Monday. This circus comes
without any great ''iourish OF trumpets,o or
display of horrible cuts in the papers, but
Judging from what the papers say where it
has been, IL is one of the best exhibitions ex-
tant. From the Junction City Union, we clip
the following notiee Of the concern:
'.The 'sGreat Atlantic and Pacific Circus"
opened in this city last Thursday night.
Their agent, not having arrived in time 70 adj
large on that night, as on the following even-
ing. Their performance has never been eX-
celled by any travelling circus on the CONT
nent The name adopted oy this company,
though high sounding, is meme too comprehen-
eive. The constellation glitters with brilliant
stars from the shores OF both oceans; from the
mer is an artistic, and an ornament to the pro-
fession. The wit OF the arena, Mr.. George
Constable, is the most comlcal Of all clowns,
and his ''hits" are rich and original. He be-
longs TO the old Dan Rice school, and we uu-
derstand, halls from the same county did
that inimitable SON OF Momus. Miss Polly
Lee, the only living equu6stra female Jug
| gler, astonished the assemblage with her won
derful feats. Her acts are exceedingly diff
emit when performed upon the ground, but
when We behold them executed upon the back
\ OF 4 swift horse, they seem nearly miracles.
The Lee family, consisting of three brothers
| and two sisters, is the wonder OF the century.
The youngest is but three years old, and Miss
Polly, the eldest, only fourteen. They are the
| fairies OF the arena. We read, sometimes, of
/ such prodigies, in old Arabian and German
| legends, and In the imaginary and amusing
| political satire OF Dean SWIM, but since we
| have seen them with our eyes, their marvel
Gus performances seem but like the imagina-
/ ton of dream. Mons. Lehman, the wonder
| full equilibrist, nightly performs feats with the
| spade and ladder, rs yet accomplished by few
| living men. One of the leading features Of
| each exhibition are the terrible and brilliant
feats performed by the Romelli family on the
''iron cradle,"-the most terrific and startling
ever attempted. Everything about the paviI-
lion is new and arranged with taste. The
band, on account Of their uniforms, suggests I'd
names like Weisenburg, Woerth and Sedan
they looked like a remnant escaped from the
late battle fields OF Europe. Tonight the
management will have the pleasure OF intro
ducing the famous Austin brothers, from
Nibloe's, the most accomplished gymnasts OF
the age. On Monday night they give an en-
tertainment for the benefit OF the poor OF THU
city.
