FLOUR, sRAIR AND Hay.

FLOUR, GRAIR AND HAY.
To-day the wheat market continued ex-
cited, buoyant and advancing. We confess
some difficulty in quoting, though we think
the rise, indicated below, was sustained.
Offerings were as meagre as usual during
the wet season; but there were buyers in
town from Missouri, Indiana and Kentucky,
and bidding was lively for what did make
its appearance. We heard of S1.35 Offering
for two select lots Of considerable bulk, but
the holders refused. One was lot Of p
500 bushels. Sales were very limited.
In sympathy with the wheat market,
flour advanced SOC per barrel. There were
buyers Of flour also in the city from the
West.
We quote as follows:
FLoUR-Super6ne, $3.50; extra, 1925;
family, s6.75; choice family, 800; fancy,
$3.50.
CORN MEAL-UnboIted and bolted,

CoRN-Sacked, car load lots, 90c.
WHEAT-Buyingf from first hands, sound
and dry Mediterranean, Sl.2061.25; red
and white, $1.2756l35.
OATs-Sscked and delivered in depot,
773c.
BARLEY-Brght, unstained, per bushel,
90c; stained nominal.
BRAE-LOOse, $14.0O; sacked in depot,

COUNTRY PROpuOE.

Market continues dull and prices at a
perfect stand-still. Dealers in eggs, etc,
are beginning to receive small orders from
the South, and prices therefore begin to
look upward.
PEAEUTs-From 75c to s1.15 per bushel,
according to quality.

Hoppers in Nebraska.

A private letter, dated June 18th,
received by the editor Of this paper
from his brother, who is agent and
operator at Louisville Station, on the
Burlington and Missouri River Rail
road, in Nebraska, says:
''The times are fearfully dull; the
crops have been destroyed to q con-
siderable extent by the hoppers that
Matched out in this region. They are
here yet, but we look for them to
leave soon. Clouds of them have
been flying over, bound north, for the
past five days. They lit in this vlcin-
ity last Monday, p. NJ, and destroyed
things as far as they went, but left
next day. Many farmers in this
county do not expect to reap enough
grain to pay for seed. From reports
going over the line daily, they are
worse between the Missouri River
and Lincoln, and south to the Kansas
line, than in any other part of the
State. Where crops were DIES troyed
last year west of the Blue there are
no grasshoppers to amount to any
thing now; and if those going over
now do not light down there, the
State will come out even, if not ahead.
Crops never looked better, so we are
hopeful"
LATER, 1880, P. M.-"Grcat clouds
Of hoppers are passing north to-day,
driven by a strong south breeze, l
find it so all along the line of $50
miles, but none are alighting yet. If
the wind keeps mp they will move
along.'"

1 Just aswe SO 70 press the Dubuque
papers, containing the proceedings
and result Of the Democratic Con-
vention aides Moines, yesterday, are
received. The Convention appears
to have been rather a lame affair, less
than half the counties in the State
being represented, and all but few
of them with broken delegations. -
The old Bourbon element was strong
ly in the ascendant, and practically
had its own way. The ticket nomi-
mated is as follows:
Governor, Sheppard Letter, Of
Burlington; Lieut.. Governor, E. B.
Woodward, of Lucas county; Su-
preme Judge, w. J. Knight, of Du-
buque; Superintendent of Public In
structlon, A. r. Wright, Of Wood
bury.
The platform, Judging from the
synopsis given, is uncertain, vague
and deceptive on all the vital issues
of the day. The only outspoken
sentiment is that in favor of a license
law, otherwise free whisky. A bitter
fight was waged over the name to be
given the party, which only ended
by laying all resolutions pertaining
to the subject on the table. So,
every man is entitled to designate it
as he pleases.
We notice that the name of ID. d.
Holdridge, Esq, of this city, appears
among those Of the State Central
Committee, an unusual courtesy, our
county having no delegation in the
Convention.
