The British Grain Trade.

The Mark Lane Express, in its revie W
of the British grain trade for the week,
says:
The majority of country markets have
been scantily supplied with Englis h
wheat. This shortness of supply VII
probably be noticeable for some time,
especially as the stronger tone and AL
vancing prices ut Mark Lane will cause
holders to become careless of selling. a
marked alteration has taken place in
local trade, and an active demand has
been experienced for wheat in all posi-
tions at an advance of shilling TO two
shillings per quarter. The time has now
arrived when buyers cannot shut their
eyes to the fact that our requirements
between this and the harvest will be
greater than can be met with available
supplies as long as imports continue on
their present limited scale, while at the
same time no doubt can be entertained
that the steady consumption which has
been going on has so reduced granary
stocks that higher prices for wheat, es-
pecially red, will probably prevail in
our market for some time. The present
strength of trade is mainly attributable
to the healthy action of consumption
against supplies, unsupported as it is
either by speculative enterprise or po-
litical uneasiness. Up to the present
the deficiencies of supply have been met
out of granaried stocks, but point Is
now reached in the depletion of such
stocks throughout the country which
compels holders to ask themselves
whether they are justified in parting
with wheat at present prices, there being
10 immediate prospect before them of
increased supplies to meet steady re-
quirements In such situation we turn
instinctively to America. The imports
into London from Atlantic ports for
weeks past have been insignificant, and
last week nil, while shipments thence
were meager. The conviction forces
itself upon us that America has not n
surplus to meet our requirements. Rus
sia may send us wheat as soon as navi-
cation allows it's transit from the inte-
rior, but there are grounds for believing
that she is unable to supply more than
the usual quota. Neither can much be
expected from Australia and Chill, where
crops are very deficient. California and
India may be relied on for white wheat,
but the ease with which supplies already
come forward have been absorbed leads
to the conclusion that every quarter that
may reach us will be required. A note
worthy feature of the trade has been the
absence of speculation.

A Mite Song.

Only drop in the bucket,
But every drop will tell
The bucket would soon be empty,
Without the drops in the we'll
Only poor little penny,
1t was all had to give
But MS pennies make the dollars,
1t may help some cause to live.
A few little bits of ribbon
And some toys they were not new,
But they made the sick child happy,
Which has made me happy, too.
Only some outgrown garments;
They were all 1 had to spare;
But they'll help to clothe the needy
And the poor are everywhere.
A word, now and then, of comfort,
That cost me nothing to say;
g But the poor old man died happy,
And it helped him on the way.
God loyeth the cheerful giver,
Though the gift be poor and small
What doth He think of His children
When they never give at all?

The BELL PUNoH.-The Moffet Whis-
ky bill to collect tax on whisky by
means of an instrument something like
the car bell punch, passed the general
ASSEMBLY of Virginia. 1t will be put up
in every bar-room. The tax on lager
beer per drink is half cent, and on al
coholic liquors two and half cents.

THANKSGIVING-DAY

81 Ill, hail. Thanksg;ving-day!
Welcome TO saints and sinners
Welcome to all, both or. at and small,
Thou day of royal dinners!
See how they come from far and near,
A troop of " carpet-baggerS."
To grace the board with one accord,
AID appetites like daggers.
Wac cares for Turkish war abroad?
Who cares for serf or Gar?
Our Turkey les before our eyes;
Come and attack--hurrah!
With knife and fork we win the day,
A truce to care and sorrow!
Eat while we may. Thanksgiving day
Will fade before tomorrow.
We're thankful for host of things
Too numerous to mention:
For sweethearts true and hearts to WOO,
And all things worth attention.
For all and every thing that gives
Our lives so much OF pleasure
We offer thanks. Long may we taste
Thine overlooking measure!
Then hail, hail. Thanksgiving day!
Tnou day of royal dinners.
Nor will we care if the grim nightmare
Should fright the soul within us
When day is done. Let Turs ey'S ghost.
With the nuts and puddings and wine.
IN the dead of night begin their fight,
Still--victory is thine!

Little Miss Elites double tainted away
on the streets IN San Francisco on Thurs
day week Under the common law
practice Of California, Frazier against
Crowell, alias Golinsky, involving an
estate of $4,000, had been as long in
the courts as Jarndyce against Jarndyce
in chancery. Miss Golinsky, a nervous,
emaciated little lady Of 60, had fought
her way from court to court with a pa
tience which the delays of the law could
not exhaust, and with determination
which the ingenuity of lawyers could
battle. but not overcome She had told
her story to every lawyer and Judge in
the city; every clerk and reporter knew
it by heart, and nodded to her Familiarity
Whenever her strange little figure cast
its shadow upon the Court House walk.
Her jewels, one after another, had been
sold; her princesse dresses and her pol
onaises had been pawned; and finally
she was reduced to such straits that she
had to borrow the few bits" with which
she kept the life of her poor little body.
But she never lost her courage; her faith
in the righteousness of her cause re-
manned mistaken. Sure enough, the
court of final resort unexpectedly decid-
ed in her favor She was not in the
courtroom when the decision was rem
dered, and had not heard the news when
a reporter stopped her on the sidewalk
and congratulated her. Then Miss Go
linsky cried out piteously, Help me
up-Fm going to fall" and tainted in
the reporters arms.

A Sons Appeal for Pocket Money.

The Memphis (Tenn.) Appeal prints
the following as an extract from letter
of a young man of that city, now at
Lebanon Law School, to his father. set
ting forth the low state Of his finances ):
II have ST. in my pocket, SO you may
see my finances are at pretty low
ebb. / have not squandered any
money, but one little necessary item
after another, with a new hat, some
books, etc., have combined to diminish
my supply Of funds. I hate to be
necessitated to write for money. I
hate money, anyhow. Don't think
from that that I, on account of my
hatred for it, relieve myself Of it as soon
as it is my good fortune to be burdened
with the filth. It is the hating to apply
for it that makes me cling to it so tena-
ciously. But | speak the truth when /
say I hate it. 1t causes more trouble
than any one thing earthly. The strife,
for it makes man callous and seK
fish. The possession of it makes him
proud and stingy. The strong desire in
the human heart to obtain it tends to
crush his higher aspirations, and sub
dues his nobler impulses. It renders
him cunning and tricky causes him
to measure his felloW-man's character
by his own. And still, notwithstanding
my thorough hatred for it and its
blackening influence on mankind, I feel
much more comfortable, and far more
independent, with few loose dimes
about my old clothes than when, on
touching my pocket no musical chink
is given back. It is kinder lone
some feeling, and leetle empty so
rest assured that before long no must
cal chink will be waited to my ex-
pectant ear, AMI I'll be homesick, and
the lonesome feeling will come DER me,
and I'll suffer. So please avoid all these
unpleasant consequences by granting an
suspicious ear to my melancholy but
earnest appeal"

PROF. HALL, not content with the
glory of his discovery of the moons of
Mars, has lately announced determi-
nation of the period of rotation of Sat
urn, which is believed to be more accu-
rate than any heretofore indicated. On
the night of September 7 he observed
bright spot on the ball of Saturn, two
or three minutes in diameter, round
and we'll defined. and of a brilliant white
color. AS the result of his own obser-
vations and those of others instituted at
his request, he concludes, assuming that
the spot has no proper motion on the
surface Of the planet, that the time of
the rotation of Saturn is 1Oh. Il m. and
23.5 s. mean time. The period of ro-
tation of the ring of Saturn is 10 h. 20
IN. and 1865.
