Frosted Corn.

The weather for the past two weea
has been very unfavorab|e for the ma
turing Of the corn crop and there are
many indications OF early frcsts
Should these occur We have word tt
say to the management cf frosted corn
If the ear is filled and fit for roasting
cut up the corn Immediately; it wall
be nearly as valuable for feed as ii
r;pened in the hill. by saverlnS its
connection from the root and eartu you
retain all the strength in the stalk and
much OF 1t will 90 to the corn. 1t is
important that 1t should be cut without
delay as single days sun will cause
the stalk to sour and make the whole
valueless. Cut and let it lie on the
ground fer = day and then put in
small shocks that the air may pass
through aal dry out the moisture, and
you will fad you will have a valuable
feed for all kinds Of stock. Already
the frost IS reported te have inj1red
some fields of corn lying in the valleys
along the streams, aud it is possible
that VIC may soon have frost severe
enough to in uro that growing on the
higher lands. This we do not appre-
bend, however. Old settlers argue,
from thei1 experience, that light 'ros
now Is sure precursor ola long spell
of very pleasant weather, sufficient to
mature the corn crop. THIS, they say
has been che case in many previous
seasons, and unless our weather proph-
cts have got the times sadly out of
joint, there is no reason to apprehend
any thing different this year. But
while We have faith in the perfection
of the crop yet, it is we'll to under
stand how best to take care of it in
c,sn of accidan -F0r,nrrs' VulOn.

REVIEW OF TIE WHEAT MARKET.
The New York Bulletin of July 20,
referring TO European crop ndica
tlons, says: Upon the whole, the
weather for the past three or four
weeks has been decidedly unfavorable
TO crops over very lage area of Eu,
rope, covering the most important
grain exporting districts, and the in
Jury sustained has been sufficient to
nodify very materially the anticips-
tious Of the yield entertained a month
ago. Il is this change in European
harvest prospects that has been stead
ily Strengthening the English and
Continental markets, and the result
has been seen at : ew York in an ex-
traerdiuary advance in plces." The
Marx Lane Express says: In
France wheat has advanced in the
provinces from one to three shi'lings,
and in Paris one shilling aDd SIX
pence. Flour has advanced two shii,
lings per sack here. We have yet 10
learn the full extent OF the advance,
Before the late rains there was an oc-
cssional rise Of from one 10 two shil-
lings. Every market seems TO be SO
sesntily supplied that We seem to be
on the borders Of exhaustion, though
from the lowest point our averages
show . rise Of only 3 shilIings 3 pence,
In Belgium and Holland there has
been a moderate rise and even IN
Germany with good prospects, prices
are somewhat dearer, while in Han
gary, where Ihe crop l. enormous, laey

ORR STEIyBEReER CABINET.-When

lost in ascertaing precisely what inter-
ests in Washington are represented IN
the extraordinary diplomatic transac-
ton which began couple OF years

SION Ia the Samoan Islands in the Ia

in the establishment il those islands
of a quadrennial monarchy limited by

hut the mguufacture by the American
Government OF a political Steinberger
cabinet for the apparent JOINT beneht
of a foreign adventurer and OF the
savages of the Samoan ls.es, merits a
closer inspection than it has yet re
ceiyed. The Secretary of the Navy
is understood 10 have been the pay,
master Of this curious enterprise. Ii
was certainly carried out at the coS'
of The Navy Department and by ma
tional vessels. Why ? and under wha'
authority? These are questions ~hIcl
it would have been idle to ask yea
ago. Next winter, perhaps, II The!
are asked with emphasis, an answer

The WoEsT INBIcAToS.-the fol
lowing extract shows how the Indian
apolls Ne,cs can hit two birds with
one stone and not half try: "The
New York Herald thinks the repub-
lican nomination for President lies
between Bristow and Washhurne,
with the chances in favor Of the lat
ter. This is the worst indication for
WashburHe that we have seen. The
Heraid'S guesseS have become pro-
verbs of laundering, and are now uni
versaily interpreted as Rory OMoore
interpreted dreams by conthraries.'
1t was never a shrewd political sheet,
nor an able one. Its editorial matter
has always ranked about on level
with that of a fair country weekly,
both in substance, and why the teIe-
graph troubles Us of the West with
