OATS did not hold at a dollar per
bushel in New York. They are quoted
this morning at IS cents. The spurt up
ward seems to have been the result Of lille.
gitimate operations. At all events, 1t ia
expected In New York that oats will soou
be lower than before tho "corner." Such
is the opinion of the President of the Pro
duce Exchange, according TO the follow
log dispatch:
Mr.. EGson says, in relation 10 the cor
ner in oats, that dispatches from persons
intending to forward oats had been re-
ceived in this city from Toronto, Canada
Washington and Saratoga counties, and
from number Of other points, where the
supply was not supposed to be large, and
in short time the price here would bt
lower than before the corner"
New oats were offered at 30 cents II
Cincinnati on Saturday, and the demand
was light and sales slow. The artificial
character Of the advance is shown by the
difference between the price for imme
diate delivery and that for month or two
hencc.s II oats were really scarce now
they would not be plentier month hence
to the extent of q difference OF 20 cent
per bushel in the price.

An item or two relating 10 our little

terian church OF this place, which has
been closed for two months, undergoing
repairs, was re opened last Sabbath, and
a glad and grateful people once again
trod lis broad aisles, and filled Its pleas-
ant seats. We hardly recognized in the
beautiful audience room the house where
our fathers worshipped. The walls had
been tastelully irescoed, the high box oi
old times had been replaced by perfect
gem Of q pulpit from your own city,
which, with the seats, had been hand
somely finished In walnut. The furniture,
in style and color, Is in keeping with the
surroundings. For beauty Of design and
neatness OF finish It Is not excelled by any
Of tho surrounding churches. New seats
have been added 10 accommodate the in
creasing numbers who tread its courts

How THE Iron MEN FRE1.-Philadel.
phia advices intimate that the statements
that have recently been going the rounds
Of the journals, that general revival Of
tho Iron trade is expected in the fall, are
not indorsed by persons in that city who
are familiar with the conditions and pros.
poets Of the business. Some improve
ment Is hoped for, but 1t is not believed
that there Ia any reason to anticipate a
brisk demand for iron and a consequent
revival Of activity in furnaces and rolling
mills at the earliest date. 1t Is admitted
when revival Of business comes It will
be very general, and that when once re.
covered it will be more securely held
than before, the iron masters having
learned lessons Of prudence which they
will not soon forget.

day (Fiday, July 81 was the day fixed
by Judge Hoge lor the execution OF John
Talialefo, convicted Of the murder Of
the little child Annie Butler. Be-
ing ono Of the most brutal Of
fences that has been committed in
this part Of the country for Q number
of years, our people have been considera-
bly, excited, and Of course naturally desire
to sec some person punished. As the
facts educed, though circumstantlal In
their nature, point pretty strongly at the
prisoner as the guilty party, Faliatero, as
well as his counsel, Messrs. Blackburn
and Lamon, have been the subjects Of con.
siderable censure. However just this cen.
sure may be when applied to the prisoner,
conceive it Is unmerited on the part oil
the counsel, as they had sworn duty 10
perform: Whilst 1t was known 10 the
people OF the town that q supersedeas had
been granted by the Court OF Appeals, and
that therefore Taliafero would not be hung
