Trade PrOspects-German Festfvi.
ties-The Crops In France, Etc.,
Etc.
NEW YORK, Sept. 6.-The trade reports
made during the past week are of a more
cheerful tone prevailing in various quar-
ters. Reliable intormants say Of the
dry-goods trade that complaints Of poor
business have generally departed.
1t Is not disputed that the jobbing
trade has been decidedly active With
houses doing Southern and Western
business. The prospects OF a large busi-
ness this fall are constantly improving.
The coming week will be made memo
rable to thousands OF the sons OF German
Fatherland in our midst by the inaugur-
alton Of festivals similar to those COM
mon in Northern Germany in the fall Of
the year. The festival, which 1t is pro-
posed to hold on the Union Hill
Schuetzen Park, will probably be the
grandestin the country.
1t commences this morning, and will
be continued until Friday evening. Many
thousands OF persons are expected to
visit the grounds from Baltimore, Phila-
delphia and numerous cities OF the W est.
A number Of persons have already ar
rived at Hoboken for the purpose of wit
Messing the first grand Piatt Deutsch
Volksfest ever held in the United
States. Immense tents have been
erected and model farmhouse con-
structed. All kinds of games will be In
order.
The musical arrangements will be In
charge OF Mr.. Theodore Webar. At
night fireworks will be displayed. The
formal opening of the festival Will take
place with procession OF about 5000
men from New York and the vicinity,
who, after parading through the metrop-
oils will proceed in military style to the
schuetzen grounds. Tuesdays proceed
ings will be continued by the erection
of q monument to Fritz Reuter-.
Mr.. II. Il. jackson, In letter from
France to the London Times, gives an
account of his impressions during a
journey Of several hundred miles that he
made In Northern and Central France
in regard to the wheat crop Of that Re-
public.
10 the South there were large areas
that had suffered from floods, ram and
drought. He believes that the surplus
of Algeria this year will make good the
loss in the South of France. He says
with the present population of France
some ninety-five million hectaliters are
the estimated requirements for food and
seed.
This year the area cultivated should
certainly give these ninety five millions,
and since 1874 is supposed to have given
surplus Of thirty,five million hectali-
ters, this, with the new crop, will have
tendency to keep France from being a
speculative competitor with England for
foreign wheat.
The crops in those countries which
border upon the Baltic and Black Seas
are generally disappointing, and all in
dications point to good demand for
American breadstuffs at higher prices
than those which prevailed last year.

his time to the tobacco question In Congress,
and studied 1t closely and was thoroughly well

details. His views were always OF the most
comprehensive and liberal character, and he
not only suggested many, but was also the
earnest advocate OF every measure calculated
to free the trade In this great staple OF the
South and West from every burthensome re-
striction, and that would encourage and pro-
mote it's growth and manufacture and export.
He was strongly in favor Of a reduction OF
the tax. on manufactured tobacco to IL cents
per pound, instead Of advancing it as was done,
and worked Zealously for 1t.
In Congress every delegation Of the trade re-
ceiyed at his hands the greatest kindAess and
attention. and they always felt and knew that
in Judge Kelly they have q sincere friend, on
whom they could rely implicitly, and he never
betrayed this confidence; therefore, be 1t

and at full pay during the whole year.

a total of 3,676,S92 pounds, .or S,l7l
commercial bales, of the value OF
S52S, 60202-an average of II 3S-l0C
