The Foreign Market for Bread
StuffS.

Irreparable damage to the crops
throughout Great Britain, considera-
BILE damage in North Germany, from
the same cause, damage from floods
in great district in France, besides
the general harvest being later and
not as good as usual, and heavy in
jury to both winter and spring wheat
by excessive heat and locusts in
Southern Russia and Hungary, have
caused an advance of eight shil-
lings quarter in the English mar
kets within briefperiod. When we
add to all this the injury last spring
by frost and drouth to the wheat
crop in this country, and that by
rains just as the wheat was ripening,
and during the harvest, it is reason
able to conclude that the crop situa-
tion in this country is not such as to
cause any reaction in the British
market, but contrariwise, and that
there will be an active foreign de
mand for our breadstutfs.-Cin. Ga

Coy, ALLEN is now, or at least pro-
fesses to be, friend of green
backs. If he had been such when
greenbacks were needed to save the
life of the nation, it would have
been much better for his credit.
Republicans have been their friends
all the time, now as we'll as in the
past, and in that respect are more
worthy of the confidence of the pub
lie. These late in life conversions
may possibly be sincere, but they
don't deserve that consideration that
those made in early life do. A
whole life of trust and faith is much
more worthy of example than one be-
gun few hours before the end
comes. Aliens conversion to green
backs is too late.

On the Death of Columbus At
klnSOD.

We try to tell how we miss him, but
we cannot; how We miss him in the dai-
ly walks of life, how we miss his dear,
familiar form in the social circle, but he
has gone to the bourne whence no tray
eler ever returns, and there is All aching
void in Our hearts which cannot be
filled, but he has passed from death into
life, that life which is eternal. And oh
how orr heart aches for the widowed
mother, who has lost her comforter,
and for the sisters who have lost their
counsellor and friend. Time alone can
heal their sorrow. Then look up, dear
mother and sisters, to that bright world
where there is no more parting nor she'd
ding of tears, and there you will meet
your son and brother who has gone
before.
His tell is past, his work is done,
And he Is fully blessed,
He fought the fight, the viet'ry won,
And entered into rest.

Democratic Economy Tested by
Facts and Figures.

The democratic press, and demo-
cratic orators, are claiming economy
for its Legislature. Pendleton had
the boldness to make this claim.
The truth of the matter is tested by
facts and figures, published on the
first page, under the head of "Demo-
cratic economy in Ohio" and we call
the attention of voters to the ex-
pose.
Pendleton claimed a reduction of
over 100000 in the expenses of the
State as the result of democratic
rule. But how was this done? 1t
was done by creating rev !ebt, and
THAT new debt is much larger than
the saving above claimed. The re-
port of the Auditor OF State for 1874,
estimates this deficit, or debt, which
will exist on November Is, 1875, at
S63S,995 The Auditor gives the
figures in proof of this deficit, and
then says: "As the case thus ap-
pears, there is no other resort from
practical reputation of upwards of
half million of the loan of 1875,
than temporary loan to meet it."
The democratic Legislature did re-
duce the tax levy for State purposes
to the extent of 100000 and over,
but it did not reduce the actual ex-
penses. And the deficit thereby crea-
ted has to be met hereafter by an in
crease of taxation. This the Audi
tor clearly shows. After furnishing
the facts and the figures in the case,
he says:
The deficiency above indicated is a con-
dition of the fund not unlocked for, and
it mainly arises from the reduction of
the rates of taxation established in 1873
at three and one-half mills to three aud
two-tenths mills, resulting In a re-
ductiOn in the State taxes upon the du-
plicate of 1874, payable in 1875, of the
estimated sum of about $474, 900.
This reduction in the State levy,
against which earnestly protested,
works to the detriment of the credit of
the State, in producinga deficiency in
the sum required to meet the maturing
obligations Oh account of the funded
debt, which will fall due January l.,

The fact that the people OF Louisiana do not defy
even unlawful authority is strlkingly evinced by
the profound quiet with which they have sub
mitted to the most papable subversion Of civil by
military power ever witnessed in the United
states and Is the sufficient answer to Sheridan's
sanderous and malignant allegations. From AL
that has occurred up TO this time 1t Is clear that
The only esprit OF defiance to all lawful author
ICY" in New Orleans Is that which the military
have exhibited IN taking possession OF state
Legislature and its members, and that the only

poIntment to his present position was hailed by
his special admirers on the ground that somebody
might be hurt"

1t is not necessary, perhaps, to mention that the
Lieutenant General has been excited to the pitch Of
writing execraoie English by the White Leaguers
and that the obnoxious individuals whom he
suspects OF being banditti are "thc rtngeaders Of
the armed White Leagues" What Sheridan will
think OF the merchants OF New Orleans now that
they have branded him as liar, or, to use their
very courteous words, accused him OF giving ''ut-
terance to statements singulary at variance with
the condition OF things" we cannot imagine and
