The Fire Near POrtage.-We briefly
mentioned last week the burning of a

farm o: Mr.. ]. e. EBERLY, near Portage.
We find fuller particulars of the misfor-

Monday morning of this week, Messrs.
Shroyer & Abbott began lhreshing wheat
for MIR. J. c. Eberly, OF Portage township,
and shortly after they had begun work a
journal on the separator became heated
and set fire to some of the chaf and straw.

thresked grain, burning the entire crop of

dured by suffering humanity. As all must

CHICAGO, August S0.-The farmers
throughout the State are about two.tllirds

ten to twenty-five bushels per acre, and Is
being rapidly sent TO market. Oats arc

In large part Of Iowa the damage to
wheat by hot weather is as much as was at
first reported. The average will be about
fifteen bushels to the acre. Oats are a
splendid crop, and corn promises the largest
crop ever grown In the State.
The Kansas farmers are nearly through

From Rev. d. n. Turncy, OF Grafton.
Editors In,ellisencer
d l find some statements in the Grafton
Sentinel which seem calculated to cause
and TO foster false impression among
those who were not present at my church
on Sunday evening last. The Sentinel says;
"Rev. D. B. Turney announced from his
pulpit, in the NJ. E. Church, last Sunday
evening, after the close OF an ant-masonic
sermon, that he would shortly issue call
for an anti-masonic mass meeting at Graf

ISntind calls an anti.masonic sermon" +"
We'll, maybe he knows. During the dis

tianity in It's worship OF Christ, and heath

mittee Of investigation was appointed, o
With Col. Dan. johnson was chairman
The substance OF the forthcoming report
Of that committee has already been pub
lished in our columns. It shows good
grounds for the out cry Of the peple along
the line OF the road. We need not refer
anew at this timo to the excessive discrim.
nations against local shippers that were
brought to light by the committee. Suffice
il that they were well established the af.
fidavits irresponsible parties. These sereyela-
tions were, bound to incite action against
the company on the part Of the Legislature
next winter. OF this there could be no
doubt. The Company saw this probability
for themselves, and accordingly they have
wisely resolved to meet the difficulty with
out waiting for action on the part OF the
Legislature. Mr.. Keyser, the second Vice
President Of the company, who was pres
ent at several Of the sessions OF the Legis-
latiyo committee, and who no doubt was
duly impressed with the necessity for con-
ciliatory action on the part OF the com
pany, has made public, in the shape of q
letter to Hon. John A. Robinson, mem
Der Of heinpestigating Committee, the de-
termination OF tho company to revise
their tariff of local charges. His letter is
as follows:
=. BALTIMORE, July 20, 1878.
John A. Robinson, Patterson Creek, W. Va:
DEAR SIR:-Reierring to the promises
made you when last in Baltimore, ! beg to
say that this company proposes changing
its present freight tarif;-rcducing the
charges for transportation in W. Va. The
new tariff is being carefully prepared by
our general freight agent, and will shortly
be completed. . shall be able to
send 1t to you In the month OF October.
Please convey the informationto to the other
members OF the committee, and oblige,
Yours respectfully,
WM. KkYsER, End Vice Preiident.
As showing how the proposed change in
the. tariff will probably work, not only for
tho good Of shippers but ultimately Of the
company itself, we take the following clip
from the Grafton SentInet:
"The proprietors Of the Irondalc Fur
mace, in Preston county, contemplate build. |
ing new stack to their furnace shortly. II
satisfactory freight rates can be procured |
from the B. & o. r. r. Co. the work will
be commenced at once. Otherwise it will
bedelayed until spring, when the improve
mepts TO the furnace will be made with n
view to shipping the iron over the narrow
gauge railroad, which, it is so confident,
will be in operation as far as Grafton by |
Fall. The improvements TO the furnace
will require the expenditure OF about
S25,000o -l
We doubt not that it will be the aim OF
the D. & o. company to give the 1rondale
furnace such q rate OF freight as will en-
able it to go on speedily with the proposed
improvement. We presume also, from
Mr.. Keyser's letter, that the company have
really made up their minds to allay for the
future, as far as possible, oil the complaints
to which we have referred above. Somay
it be. f..s

LONDON, August 3l.-The latest advices
from Vienna. Rome, Constantinople and
Paris taken together cause some uneasi-
ness. Vienna is prolific Of canards, but
the prevalence OF rumors there concern
ing disasters in Bosnia is notable. There
is violent conflict OF opinion in the coun-
ellis OF the Sultan, and the latter is very
vaciliating in his course, The convention
between Austria and Turkey, in the terms
mention in these dispatches, was complete
ly ready for signature, and the rough draft
had been made when the Turkish Envoy
at Vienna received dispatch instructing
him to insist upon new condition. The
unexpected strength which has been dis
played in the resistance in Bosnia has
produced deep impression, and 1t is fear
ed that much has yet TO be done ere the
treaty Of Bosnia can be enforced.
