Pre-emptinx RAN Road Lands,

Secretary schurz's decision to the eff.
feet that Union Pacific lands can be pre-
empted by settlers at $1.25 per acre, will
throw open to the public large amount of
valuable land in Nebraska, in some counties
the land being valued as high as $1o per acre.
There is no doubt that nearly all of this land
will be quickly pre-empted by actual settlers,
who will sieze upon the opportunity with
eagerncss. All such pre-cmptions cases will
probably be contested by the Union Pacific
who are determined to make a desperate
struggle in this matter, which will cause
them to pay heavy loss.

missioner of Indian affairs, under date of July

there he met and conversed with some Sioux
Indians from Standing Rock agency. They
were couriers sent with tobacco from the
Sioux Of the plains to invite the Sisseton
Sioux to join them in hostilities against the

The Storm At quincy. HI.

Quincy, ILL.,, was visited On the Goth
inst, by heavy rain storm, which did great
damage. In the city and vicinity the injury
to the streets amounts to nearly $4,000, and
the damage to private property is much
greater. Bridges across the streams in and
near the city were washed away. Cellars and
houses were flooded, and in some instances
stocks of goods in stores were greatly injured
by water. One family who were surrounded
~ the. flood were rescued at late hour in
boats. The rain is believed to be the most
severe that has ever visited this section.

r. The Mark Lane Enprcss says: Crops
sare ripening rayidly under the brilliant SUM-
shine. A continuance Of such weather as VIC
are now experiencing will 90 fur to repair
injury by prolonged floods in May, except
where rain ID needed. But>to judge from the
aoly filed wheat heads which are to be seen
in many parts Of the country, the yield in
these districts will scarcely come Aup to the
average. Wheat cutting may be expsctcd t"
commence this week in the early. districts,
provided tho weather continues seasonable.
The barley fields present bleached and un-
healthy appearance. Agricultural reports
from Scotland are satisfactory. Barley and
oats have improved, and turnips have thriven
on the poorest soil. Potatoes generally are
good, except in Ireland, where disease made
sad inrOad on what promised to be heavy
crop. The country markets and Mark Lane
have been scantily supplied with wheat, but
tho continuance Of bright weather caused a
slight relapse. Foreign barley maintained its
currencies, but trade has not been over
weighted with imports, as Fridays return was
, nder $1,000 quarters. Millers supplied their
wants SO freely during the previous week that
the decreased demand for consumption has
been barely sufficient to support the late i'm.
provement. Nevertheless, sellers are 10th to
accept the production, in view Of the decreased
quantity Of wheat on passage, and the posi-
bility that American crop reports are cxag'
gerated, so that the weeks transactions were
not large, although the continental demand
still affords some support to prices. With
small arrivals at ports of call the floating car.
go trade was quiet, but the continental de.
mand continued and values were fairly sup
ported. Maize dull and rather lower. Barley
unchanged. Sales Of English wheat noted
