AL statislieal information on the sub
iect Of the wheat products Of the world
point 10 the Important fact that the Uni
ted States is the only country able to
supply the unprecedented demand for
wheat this year in nearly ali European
countries. The returns OF the imports
to Great Britain to September 30th show
that the gross value Of the imports of
wheat for nine months IL about e99, ,OOO,-
600, of which the United States supplied
$42, zoo. 900 worth. The proportion of
wheat received from Russia has fallen
from Ia, 900, ,000 to 10000 hundred
weights, as compared with 1879, while
that received from the United States has
increased from 100000 to $4,000, 600
hundred weights. Wheat, is usually ex-
ported from the north Of France, but
this year it will have to be imported, and
the importations OF the south Of France
will be largely increased. Germany,
Hungary, and Southern Russia are also
deficient in their crops, and that Euro
pean dealers have accepted the returns
as thoroughly reliable, may be judged
from the fact that their exports from
New York alone during the fourteen
days ending October 9th were l, sos, Ago
bushels, an amount unparalleled in the
history Of that port.

James NJ. Mcdonald, formerly much
respected citizen of Sacramento, and now
very prominent and esteemed citizen

its candidate for Mayor; moreover, that
should the Democrats, as many, antici-
