whose condition is the most pitiable

clerks, post-office employees, etc. In

they have little chance of obtaining en-
ployment of the kind to which they were
accustomed, and being unused to manual
labor they find themselves in position
which renders return TO crime an al
most overwhelming temptation. And
yet they are the most hopeful and re-
pentant class, and only dire necessity
eompels them in most cases to repeat
their otfenses. What is still more against

THE EMPTY CRADLE.

Sal is the heart Of the mother
Who sits by the lonely hearth,
Where never again the children
shall waken their songs Of mirth.
Aud still through the painful silence,
She listens for voices and tread,
Outside OF the heart, there only
She knows that they are not dead.
Here is the desolate cradle,
The pillows so lately pressed,
But far away has the birding
Flown from its little nest.
Grooming lhe lullabies over,
I hat once were her babes delight,
Al through the misty spaces
She follows Its upward flight.
Little she thought Of a moment
~ gloomy and sad as bis
When close 10 her heart she gathered
iier child for its goodnight kiss.
She should he tenderly cherished,
Never grief should she know.
Wealth, and the prid OF a princess,
These would mother bestow.
And this Is the darling portion .
In heaven-where she has fed
BY angels securely guarded,
BY angels securely led.
BroodiDg in sorrowful silence
over the empty nest,
Can you not see through the shadows
Why IL is all for the best
Better the heavenly kingdom
Than riches or earthly crown,
Better the early morning flight,
Than one when the sun Is down;
Better an empty cqsket
Than the Jewels hesmirched with sin,
Safer than there without the fold

According to the most moderate esti-
mate, the average quantity Of cereals
necessary for the consumption Of each
inhabitant is IA 9-l0 bushels per annum,
and, therefore, all the states that come
alter Sweden upon the list have TO
obtain grain supplies from other coun-
tries. In this country three.Rfths OF the
cereal production consists OF corn. In
Europe oats predOminate, and next in
quantity come wheat, rye, barley and
corn. Russia, Prussia, and France pro.
duce large wheat crops, and the two first
are our greatest competitors in the Eng
lish market. In Roumania and Servia
corn takes the first rank. Prior TO 1860
Russia and Prussia led the United States
in the supply of wheat. From 1859 to
1861 the exports OF wheat from this
country to England sprang suddenly
up from $40, ,504 cwt. to l5,5lO,472 cwt., I,
while in the same period Russia advanced
only from 1887, 454 cwt., to 4,467, ,4S3
cwt., and Prussia from 3,345, ,30l cwt., to
4, 1925 cwt. The lead taken 80 sud.
,ienly by this country has ever since been
maintained. Tables covering the years
from 1860 to 1879 show that the United
States supplied England during that
period with 2S.5 per cent. of her total
imports of wheat, including flour,
against 24.7 per cent. from Russia, and
l72 per cent. from Germany. In the
same period England imported AZ per
cent OF her total importations of corn
from this country. In 1852 the exports
Of corn from hiscountry tn Great Britain
only amounted to 1,341 1904 bushels,
against 1,7956s2 bushels from Turkey
and Roumania, and l,795,Gs2 bushels
from Russia. At present Roumania and
southern Russia, to a lesser degree, are
our principal competitors in the supply
of corn. The year 1876 was good
harvest year in England prices were
low, and the total imports Of wheat were
only 44.394, l52 cwt., against 81 1856, 1893
cwt. in 1875. The following table gives
the sources of supply:
The Osceola times., 1877-06-02

The importations of corn were 39,-
95s, ,226 cwt., of which upwards of 80 per
cent came from this country. Canadian
exports of grain are included in hose of

ers it is evident that the demand for
American breadstuffs will be increased
in the neighborhood OF % per cent. in
case of the cutting off OF the Russian and
Turkish supplies from market by pro-
longed war. Italy imports verv largely
from Odessa, on the Black Sea, and war
will also create an active demand for
our breadstuffs in Mediterranean ports.
In this country the visible supply of
wheat is only about ons.half what it was
this time last year, and if the Russian
supply is cut or from the English mar
ket the supply of wheat until the next
harvest will be very scant, and prices
necessarily high. This will tend to
make good market for com, Of which
there is in this country more than twice
the quantity in store than there was at
this time last year. although the exports
to England have been larger than last
year. While much depends upon the
area Of hostilities and the length Of the
war, IL is the opinion Of ststisticians
that the eastern war can not fail to cre-
ate an extraordinary demand for our
