Especial Correspondence to the Intcr-Ocean.l
- PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 4, 1874.
Having in my second letter set forth
in detail statistical account of the ag-
riculture and crops of France, showing
their progress nearly every year during
the past century, it was my intention
in this communication to endeavor to
show the influence which the pro-
duction of French grain Immediately ex-
ercises upon our markets. by acting di
reetly as mechanical governor" upon
the grain markets of England. But
certain statements which have recently
appeared IN the newspapers render it
necessary that should digrcss for the
once to the subject of the British grain
crop.
PROBABLE BRITISH DEMAND FOR WHEAT
In my first letter, assuming a pur.
posely underlined, because not known,
though currently believed to be large,
crop of breadstuffs in the
United States this year, and leay-
ing the conclusion hereinafter to
be mentioned open to be modified By
the movement Of the grain crops Of
Continental Europe and estimate the
current British wheat crop at $780,
coo bushels, the demand for British
consumption at 186,0OO,OOO bushels.
and the probable imports to the United
Kingdom, at ~, 4O0, go bushels, con-
eluded that that kingdom would import
from the United States during the en-
suing harvest year upwards of 5O,OO0,-
600 bushels.
The total exports Of wheat and
wheat -four from the United States dur
ing the fiscal year ending June 30, 1884,
were about 81 100000 bushels, Of which
about two thirds were cleared ''to or
through ports in the United Kingdom.
This is the substance Of information
received yesterday from the United
States Treasury Department.
In short, while I regard the British
wheat crop of this year as .rather bet.
ter than last years, but not SO good as
represented in some Of the late English
journals" and although our this year s
exports Of wheat to Great Britain we're
exceptionally large, l believed that the
small stocks on hand in Europe, the
smaller area each year planted in wheat
in Great Britain, and the increasing
numbers of the people, would lead to q
demand from this country during the
current harvest year almost as great
IS it was during the harvest year Just
closed.

(Tuesday). ss~ sss ssg-@ ssfs rs.s
The cotton exchange closed at P. NJ.
on Tuesday as mark of sympathy
with the movement to establish the
legitimate State government Of Louis
lana. At. 3 P. NJ. a large crowd of I'M
armed citizens assembled on st. Charles
street and escorted Lieut.. Gov. Penn
from his residence to the State House,
where he took possession of the execu-
tive departments. Ten thousand per-
sons participated in this movement, and
great enthusiasm was manifested. AT
= P. NJ. some three thousand of Gen.
Ogden's military with captured guns,
passed by the Custom House, and the
United States soldiers stationed there
gathered in the windows and cheered
the citizens. Quiet prevails through
out the city.
ST. LOUIS SYMPATHY.
A mass meeting was organized at st.
Louis Tuesday night, to sympathize
with the people of New Orleans in their
efforts to rid themselves Of oppression.
Gen. VIM. Shields presided, and large
number Of prominent citizens of both
parties were elected vice presidents and
secretaries. Speeches were made by
Gen. Shields, Col. Richardson, Sherrcrd
Clemens, Col. Stay back, Col. Reed, A.
G. P. Garesche, and others. All the
addresses expressed earnest sympathy
with the people of Louisiana in their
struggle to relieve themselves Of usurp-
alton. and resolutions to the same eff
feet were unanimously adopted.
WITHDRAWAL OF THE M'ENERY GOVERN
MENT.
A consultation was held on Thurs
day, 18th inst, between the members of
the McEnery government at the State
House, to receive and consider certain
propositions from Gen. Emery, demand
ing the retirement of all armed men
from the streets and the return of
arms to the arsenal. The propositions
were acceded to. Gen. Emery then is
sued an order directing Gen. Brooke,
Colonel of the Sd Infantry, to take pos
session of the arms and other State
property, and appointing him to the
command Of the city until State and
city government could be organized.
The present police force, under Thomas
Boylan, was directed to remain on duty
until relieved. A long letter was ad-
dressed to Gen. Emery by Cows. Nc
Emery and Penn, protesting against the
position assumed by him and stating that
the state Offices should be given up to
the United States government alone.
At six p. N. Gen. j. r. Brooke, accom-.
panied by Lieutenants Wallace and
Roe, went to the executive Office at the
St. Lo lis Hotel. Immediately On his
entrance. Governors McEnery and
Penn, shaking hands with him, intro
duced the three federal officers to a
number Of prominent citizens present.
Gov. McEnery then stated to Gen
Brooke that he gave him possession o.
the State Capitol and all other State
buildings within the limits Of the city
He then read to him long address

clusion of which Gen. Brooke took pos.

ten lines, arguing that reprint Of his
sermons would sinjureas HIS publishers,
whereas these extracts from them would
not. Miss Proctor published a small
volume, which she entitled Life
Thoughts, by Henry Ward Beecher,
edited by Edna Dean Proctor. J"
The book had an unexpected sale, and
Mss Proctor realized several thousand
dollars in few months. That this
sum was realized is known from the
fact that Gordon L. Ford. now one of
her bondsmen in the suit against
Moulton. invested the motley for her in
Brooklyn real estate, which she still
holds. Miss Proctor, gratified with her
success, spent some time in the next
two or three years in collecting the
thoughts of Beecher as they fell from
his lips in Plymouth pulpit, and was
prepared to
PUBLISH ANOTHER VOLUME
when there suddenly appeared Il book
by Miss Augusta Moore, purporting to
give the best thoughts Of Beecher, as
uttered in Plymouth pulpit, and which
had the written endorsement Of Mr..
Beecher as to their correctness. Miss
Proctor at once jumped to the conclu-
sion that Mr.. Beecher had grossly
wronged her. She imagined she had
claim. from having published previous
book, to issue Mr.. Beecher's 'sLife
Thoughts" from time to time, as occa-
sion or profit induced her, and felt very
much aggrieved that Mr.. Beecher
should indorse anybody else; thereup-
on she
MADE COMPLAINT AGAINST Mr.. BEECHER,
and he replied, in his usual gushing
style, in letter of nine or ten pages,
in which there was much quotation
from Scripture and great deal dubious
meaning, but which, taken as whole,
convinced Miss Proctor that she had
been unjust to Mr.. Beecher in ner first
supposition. and so the matter ended.
Years afterward, Mr.. Beecher, wishing
to protect himself at all points, obtained
from Miss Proctor retraction or GER
tificate Of good conduct, which has
already been published in Moulton's
statement. You have plenty of wit
| ucSSCS " nO arc SQIc tuC ldCtS were rep.
resented directly to Moulton, but the

through Franklin Woodruff, and he did
not choose to regard them, and hence

THE GRAPHIC SUED PoR LIBEL.
A suit for 100000 is brought by
Miss Proctor against the Daily Graph
&c. Papers in this case have not been
made out, but will Immediately follow
those in Moulton's case. 1t is not gen.
orally known that in suing the Graphic
Miss Proctor sues Benjamin F. Butler
and B. F. Jayne. formerly special
agent Of the Treasury. When the en-.
terprise was originally started Butler
and Jayne agreed to take two thirds Of
the stock. and the Goodsells represent
tn EN- and their own interests in the
concern. A very lively time is antici
pated.

The arrest of Moulton on a suit of
Edna Dean Proctor will probably take
place in day or two. The papers
were to have been done to-day, but the
ladys attorneys were unable, from o
press of business, to get them ready.
The suit is based on law Of this State
which allows the plaintiff, although not
named, to bring suit in the event of any
Of the facts being sufficiently clear to
indicate the plaintiff as one of the par.
ties implicated. Moultcn took care not
to mention Miss Proctor's name, but in
this matter he mistook the law, aud it
is said that this mistake is based on ad-
vice of Ben. Butler. The facts in dis
pute between
BEEcHER AND MICS PROCTOR
are said to have been represented to
Houlton, but this is an error. All the
documentary evidence in the case was
read to Franklin Woodruff, who is
Moultons senior in the firm of Wood
ruff d Robinson, and he was convinced
thereby that Moulton's idea of the re-
lations between Beecher and Miss Proc
tor we're enormously stated in the
interview of Henry NJ. Smith, and in
the reports which have been generally
circulated. Woodruff went to Moulton
and told him what he had learned, but
Moulton declined to accept that expla-
nation, and said that he was satisfied
from Beecher's- own statements that
his own account Was the true one.
Moulton's former attorney, Sam. D.
Morris. proposes to bring forward sew
eral witnesses to whom
BEECHER CONFESSED
that he had been guilty with Miss Proc
tor precisely as Moulten stated.
Miss Proctor is lady about 48 years
of age. of very considerable talents,
and for many years was governess in

serving in this capacity she was accus-
toned to amuse herself 1t Plymouth

made large collection, some of her
friends suggested to her their
