We find the following in the New
York Journal of Commerce, in relation
to the sack of flour sent from the Todd
mills, of this city, through Mr..G. liag-
gart, produce dealer, Main street:
TEXAS FIoUR-'rhe chamber of COM /.
merce received yesterday from Gilbert
Haggart, Esq, and has now on eXhi- |
bition in its rooms, q sample OF Hour
from first wheat raised in Dallas coun-
ty, Texas. The wheat was harvested |
May 20, 1875, threshed May %, and
ground MAY 81. 1t is the opinion OF
Judges who have examined the sample |
that it is equal in fineness and nutri- |
tious qualities to any flour from grain
grown in the state of New York or
either of the western states. Some OBJ |
lection has been made 10 its color, |
which is not quite so white ms Hour
made from the best grades of Calitor-
mia or Minnesota wheat. 1T is Sug' |
guested that this may be on account OF |
the sample not being boited 50 finely |
as superiine usually is.
THE New York Sun charges that the /
Tribune is owned and controlled, in ail
financial matters, by the most unscru-
pulous of the New York stock gam
blers-Jay Gould. We hope this isun-
founded, but if true il n sad commen-
tary on the honesty and reliability of
"independent journalism" 1t may |
account for the Tribune's opposition To |
the wishes of the entire south for the .
early completion of n Southern Trans |
Continental railroad to the Pacific. |
Jay Gould il, at present, largely inter-
ested in Union and Central Pacific
stocks, and makes war, through the
Tribune, upon every proposition that
looks to breaking down the present
odious monopoly enjoyed by the Cen
tral Pacific Some day he may con |
clude Ito "bear'' this stock. and then |
we may have powerful advocate for
the early completion of the Texas Pa
.cifc on the grounds of "justice to the
south"
GRANT did not want the first nomi- |
nation; yielded to the earnest solicita-
tion of his friends and accepted the |
second, and If the third is absolutely |
necessary for the good of the country, |
why, he will make the sacrifice COM
plete and accept it.
Poor Grant, why can't an ungrateful
country permit him to lay down the
grievous burden of state, and to re-
tire TO some idyllic Arcadia, for which
his soul longs where,
C. pdtulp recubdns suJ tegD'ine Jdgi,"
he could put his oaten straw To the
practical use so congenial to his soul,
and cultivate his refined taste for
bull pups and fasttrotters?
But to treat the subject with the Sc
riousness it deserves, we are surprised
TO see that the New York Herald,
which was the first to sound the alarm
In regard TO Grants third term aspira-
tions, should speak of his letter as
"evasive." To our apprehension,
nothing could be more categorical;
since he could not have said more
plainly than he does, al do not solicit
your suflrages, but should you think
proper to nominate me, am at your
service"
