NEWS OFTHE WEEK.
Enxllsn Grain Market.

The Mark Lane Express, says by the
most hopeful observers it can scarcely be said
that the state of the wheat and barley on low
lying land is other than extremely critical
Crops are weak, dscolorcd and rotten in
some places from the prolonged immersion,
and even on light lands the harvest prospects
are two or three sacks per acre worse than a
month ago. Ii the rain speedily ceases, and q
long spell of dry weather succeeds, some,
but not all the damage may be repaired
Such an unfavorable change in the prospects
OF the English wheat crop would once have
had Il marked effect upon prices. but so in
dependent has this country become of indi-
yenous grain that the reverse has actually
been the case, and values have receded to 2
ehllling> al over the kingdom, both for En-
Glish and foreign produce. The immediate
causes Of this depression are the enormous
shipments from America. with the splendid
prospects OF an abundant crop this year and a
feeling that our differences with Russia will
De practically adjusted. The result is general
staynation OF trade, which has moved within
narrow limits throughout the week. Wheat
and maize are only salable at a shilling re-
duction, and even then only in retail quanti-
ties. Quotations are now at peace level. It
is not Impossible that the revival Of contin-
entail demand may occur to rally prices some

Assas>i1aatSOn In Japan.

okubo Tossimitoi, senior imperial
councillor and minister of the home depart
ment, was a>sassiiated May II, at Yokohama,
Japan. lie was attacked by six men while
riding from his residence to the palace at s
o'clock A., The murdcrcrs selected an un-
irequentrd part Of the route, cut down his
horse, killed the driver and slaughtered their
victim - he Sprung FROM the carriage. The
body was frciGht1ully mutilated, the face and
neck covered with woui,ds, and one hand cut
off. The assassins immediately proceeded to
the palace and gave themselves up. They
proved to ''1 iauatical followers of the late
rebel Saigc, although not from his part Of the
country. Two ut them wrote letter and
sent it toa newspaper before setting out, de-

selfish and tErannical, preferring despotism

rlUdes p.:t.iots from share in the govern
nient, tnla exciting rebellion, and fails to sus-
tain the dignity OF the empire towards other
nations. Therefore they kill him. The

The Better Wan.

The fervent charity whose passion tor
dong good 'endureth all things" was
illustrated by pathetic scene at a tenn
perance meeting held in Bloomfield, N.
j. A half-intoxicated man interrupted
the speaker, and the indignant audience
shouted. "Put him out!"
mo, mop exclaimed Rev. Mr.. Simons
'don't put him out! Let him sit bv me.
III take care of him."
The audience acquiesced, the drunken
mai took seat by the clergymau's side.
and the speaker went on with his address,
The poor inebriate paid good attention.
and joined heartily in the singing, which
was led by an excellent cornet-player.
Suddenly, the clergyman, placing his
hand kindly on the mans s shoulder said.
"Let Us pray" Both knelt, while in gentle
tones the minister besought Coos pity
and help for mis- erring brother. Drunk
as he was, the man was touched, and tears
trickled down his flushed cheeks.
Were they tears of that pentence which
bringeth forth fruit? We know not ;but we
do know that both the poor d1unkard and
the audience went away from the hall with
clearer idea than they had had of the
apostles words, 'tAnd above all things
have fervent charity among yourselves
for charity will cover the multitude of

CinderS in the Eye.

Persons travelling much by railway are
subject to continual annoyance from
the flying cinders. On getting into the
eye, they are not only painful for the
moment, but are often the cause of long
suffering that ends in total loss of sight !:
A very simple and effective cure is with
in the reach of every one, and would pre-
vent much suffering and expence were it
more generally known. It is simpie-one
or two grains of flax seed. It is said
they may be placed in the eye without
injury or pain to that delicate organ, and
shortly they begin to swell and dissolve
glutinous substance that covers the
ball of the eye, enveloping any foreign
substance that may be in it. The irrita-
tion or cutting of the membrane is thus
prevented, and the annoyance may soon
be washed out. A dozen of these grain
slowed away IN the vest pocket may prove,
in an emergency, worth their number in
gold.
The foregoing remedy, from the Min-
ing and Scientific Press, appears 70 be
based on the homeopathic principle.
Like cures like" Whether the stiking
of faxseed into an inf1amed eve is likely
to prove beneficial is questionable. Bet

After All.
EY WILLIAM WINTER.

The apples are ripe in the orchard,
The work of the reaper is done,
And the golden woodlands redden
In the blood of the dying sun. So 3
At the cottage-door the grandsire -
Sits, pale, I'm his easy chair, ::
While gentle wind OF twilight a.,
Plays with his silver hair.
A woman is knelling beside him;
A fair young head Is prest,
In the first wild passion Of sorrow
Against his aged breast.
And far from over the distance
The faltering echoes como,
OF the fying blast of trumpet
And the rattling roll of drum
Then the grandsire speaks, in whisper,-
"The end no man can see;
But we give him to his country,
And we give our prayers to Thee"
The violets star the meadows,
The rose-buds fringe the door,
And over the grassy orchard
The pink.white blossoms pour.
But the grandsire's chair is empty,
And the cottage is dark and still,
There's namelese grave on the battle
field,
And new one under the hill,
And pallid. fearless woman
BY the cold hearth sits alone;
And the old clock in the corner
Ticks on with steady drone.

7nent. The secretary Of war and the general
of the army have been in consultation with
reference thereto, and in the brief cabinet

to the President and members of the cabinet
his views and that Of military commanders re-
porting to the secretary OF war regarding the
seriousness of the situation. Army officers are
convinced that there is danger ahead II is
The opinion at the war department that the
army force is far from sufficient number to
accomplish all necessary to prevent outbreaks,
but reliance is placed upon the support troops
will receive from fron1iersmen. Troubles on
the Rio Grand just reported cause as much ap-
prchcnsion as the Western Indian outbreak.

Is. Marcy. Inspector General of the
United States Army, has prepared a
paper charging the Indian Bureau with
being thoroughly impregnated with
corruption, aud saying that any change
would be an advantage. He denies
that the Indian Bureau tends to civil
Ne, educate and Christianize the In.
dams. and says there is no progress
toward self support. Meanwhile, agents
have amassed fortunes out of the
Sl.S0O salaries. He says that when
the Indians were under control of the
War Department. from 1888 to l847,
shere was no corruption. and the an
nuities were honestly distributed. The
army does not desire the change. but it
would be an economical measure and
