GAN INCIDENT IN A BARBERsHOP -
This morning ex-President Grant enjoy
ed shave in the barbershOp in a promi-
nent hotel. While he was standing near
the door, waiting for the boy to get
through with brushing his coat, he was
approached by well known newspaper
man of this city. who bears the title of
Colonel and is an editor above the aver
age. How are you, Generalp said the
Colonel, in cordial manner, at the same
time putting out his hand. I'm getting
along nicely said the ex-President, not
noticing the outstretched hand, 1T seems
Pm a great deal better man now than
when was in office--that is, according
to your paper" With this the ex-Presi-
dent left the Colonel to himself, the lat
ter being evidently taken back by Gen.
Grants remarks, and feeling decidedly
uncomfortable. This little incident has
its moral"
We doubt if any who read this yester-
day had any exact comprehension as to
which of the colonels it referred. There
are quite number of colonies connected
with the editorial fraternity of Philadel-
phia. In fact, whenever we attempt to
go over the list we are compelled to think
of that story of John Phoenix. The story
is this: John Phoenix was going by the
boat to Sacramento TO San Francisco
just as the boat was starting off John
Phoenix leaned upon the rail and felt
sad and lonesome. He had no friends
everybody else had friends. There was
nobody to bid him good by. Therefore
be was sad. In fit of desperation, there
fore, he, just as the boat was pushing off
from the wharf, swung his hat in the air
and shouted "Good-by, Colonel" Euery
man on the arfimmediatelv swung his
hat in the air ond shouted back, "Colonel
good-by!"-1etegrdph.
1t is said Col. Mcclure is the editor
alluded to.

The GRAIN SPEcULATIoN.- corn
market was again unsettled Yesterday.
and an advance of p cents per bushei
was made. The advices from Europe
were not important, and the improve
ment IS attributed to buying orders from
the West, where fears are entertained
that the growing crop will be seriously
injured by the continued wet weather.
Western corn, for immediate and NAV
delivery closed at 10 cents, June delivery
at 7Oa cents, and July at III cts. Wheat
was firmer and flour steady and unchanc-
ed. At Chicago wheat was u cents and
corn cents higher, and at New York
wheat was only two cents higher and
