The movement in the grain markets during
the week under review has been compara-
lively light. and almost wholly on local specu-
lative account. There were but few orders
from the interior, and but little speculative
demand from other markets. AS usual at
this season, there is but. little shipping de-
mand, the absence of any shipping worth
mentioning being due now to the fact that
local speculation has forced prices above a
shipping margin; prices being against ship
pers all round. The reports from Liverpool
and New York We're without any very impor-
tant changes. but the governing influences
were generally of local speculative character.
The receipts of all kinds of grain we're
lighter than during the preceding week, and
showed larger decrease when compared with
the same week last year. The shipments
were also lighter, the stock in store
showing an increase of $50, 900 blu wheat,
156, 900 btu corn 176, 900 blu oats, 5000 blu rye,
and 1000 blu barley. There was but little
inquiry for flour, shippers holding off.
Spring wheat was moderately active, but
somewhat unsettled. Values at one time
were &c to 1c lower, and again higher under
the manipulations of spectators. The cur
rent quotations at the close, however, were
about the same as at the opening. The corn
market is in a rather peculiar condition. We
have "corner" in old No. for this month,
and prices have advanced from TIC to Soc,
and this figure was freely bid at the close 1t
is generally conceded that good many
''shorts" are still outstanding, and the
probability is that prices will rule higher this
week; that is should the combination deem
it prudent to squeeze the mar
ket any further. New corn was weak,
both for present and also for future
delivery, the receipts being larger than had
been expected. The oat market was in the
same general condition as the corn trade-a
"eorner" for December being feature Of
the trade The general market was firmer,
however, with light receipts and less desire to
force sales. Rye was steady and firm through
out. Receipts light and demand good Barley
was dull, and rather easy at times. but closed
firmer than at the opening. The following
were the ruling prices at the opening and at
the close.

however. She rubbed the preparation
generously throughout the sufferers
mouth, and, doing her face up in red
flannel, babe her stay indoors, on pain
of severe punishment, and left her to
her own reflections.
Noon came. Maggie had played with
her puppy to her hearts content, and
was tired Of him. So, with her nose
pressed fiat against the window pane,
she watched for her brothers. But they
came not. Two, three, four o'clock,
and still no Harry, no John. Poor
Maggie was almost beside herself with
anxiety by this time, and could not
help wondering at the calm demeanor
of her mother. But just as the sun
sank out of sight the front door
slammed, as it only can slam when boys
are about, and in rushed the absent
ones, full of boisterous mirth, and very
much stained about the mouth.
"Where have you been?" inquired
Maggie, wonderingly.
"Been!' replied Harry, dancing Wig
orously on one leg. "Why, over to
Mr.. Gibson's, to be sure. The whole
school was invited. We went across in
boats he sent for us. tell you it was
jolly. Wasn't it, John?'
1t was that, " replied John, throw

himself on the lounge. "But what was
the matter with you, Mag? ALI the
girls were crazy to know why you
weren't there"
Maggie unfortunately received the
gift of fine pup, and was Immediately
seized with a severe toothache, replied
Mrs. Morton, gravely. "Mr. Clinton
had told me before of this holiday, and
I knew what my little girl lost by her
affection but as she said she was un-
able to go I let her stay at home"
Poor Maggie! This was the unkind-
est cut of all. To know of such a
pleasure and keep her out of i'll Her
lips quivered and her little form
trembled, and her brothers looked on
in silent pity.
"Your tooth is somewhat better, is

"It's just like it always was,' replied
the child, rising defantly to her feet.

Mrs. Morton was wise mother. She
did not turn the child from her at this
critical moment, when rebellious ma
ture, smarting under disappointment,
confessed it's misdeeds for spite's sake.
No, indeed. She tenderly passed her
arm about Maggie's waist, and drawing
her close to her, softly said:
"Learn from this, my dear child,
that falsehood brings it's own reward.
I love you. So do we all. But your
besetting sin has punished you Justly
to-day"
Maggie had the real, genuine tooth
ache about six months after this event,
but kept it all to herself for whole
day, like little heroine, and was only
betrayed when she burst into tears
from very pain.

she said; but it made me feel so
