Advices from great number of points
in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia in

seems to have expended its greatest force in
the interior and eastern parts of the State Of
Ohio, western Pennsylvania, and northern
West Virginia.

Only.

Only seed but it CHANGED to fall
In a little cleft of city wall
And, taking root, grew bravely up
Till tiny blossom crowned its top.
Only a flower; but it CHANGED that day
That burdened heart passed by the way;
And the message that through the flower was
sent
Brought the weary soul sweet content;
For it spake of the lilies so gaily clad,
And the vexed heart grew strangely glad
At the thought of tender care over all
That noted even a sparrow's fall.
Only thought; but tie work it wrought
Can never by word or pen be taught;
For it ran through life like thread OF gold,
And the life bore fruit hundred-fold.
Only a woid; but twas spoken in love,
With whispered prayer to the Lord above;
And the angles in heaven rejoiced once more,
For new. born soul entered in by "the Door,"

ENGLISH GRAIN.
Continued Unfavorable Weather, Though
Slightly Improved - Supplies of New
Wheat Fair, and the Cereal Year Inaugu-
fsI WITH, Trioos

Slightly Improved - Supplies of New
Wheat Fair, and the Cereal Year Inaugu-
rated will, Healthy Prices.
LONDON, Sept. 10.-The Mark Lane ErpYvS,
| in its view of the British corn trade for the
past week, says the weather has been less show.
| cry than during the previous week, but has not
been satisfactory either for threshing or secur
ing the crops, as it has been dull and damp
with temperature rather high. Dry, breezy
days are now urgently needed, as there is still
| some wheat to be cared for, while large pro-
portion of barley is still standing. Gases OF
sprouting are frequent owing to the moist at
mosphere. Considerable disappointment is
felt, especially in Yorkshire, where q
quantity of grain is lying exposed
vest operations are much protracted.
Recent advices from Norfolk, which is an
important barley-growing country, stated that
| fully half of the crop was still in the fields
and it is feared that the grain has already be
come too much dlscolored to render it availa-
ole for mailing. Such wheat as was secured
before the rain set in, more particularly the
earliest gathered, is very fine. Scotch and Irish
reports complain of broken weather, which
prevented securing the crops, but roots and
pastures present splendid appearance.
The supplies of new wheat have been fair
sc Marx Line and che proviu, ial markets
Prices have favored sellers for all dry lots, but
as only a small proportion of samples offered
have been in anything like fine condition most
of the sales have been at irregular values.
Sellers exhibited good deal of firmness, and
business to some extent was checked thereby.
Increased attention has been paid to foreign
wheat during the past week or ten days,
especially to fine old Russian and American
ports, upon which demand will doubtless be
mainly directed SO long as the home product is
marketed in unsuccessful condition. An
advance of six pence to shilling has been OBJ
tanned on these descriptions.
The cereal year has commenced with prices
of all produce at a healthy level, and although
no market rise can be anticipated in the i'm
mediate future, in view of the large shipments
from America and the tendency which her adj
mittedly large crop has to reduce values, still
it may not be too much to say that the enor-
nous requirements of this country may be
pretty confidently relied on to absorb supplies
at range of prices little if anything below
these now ruling.
In the London market another point to
strengthen trade lies in the fact that even
should imports of wheat from American At
lantic ports increase, Russian supplies will nee
essarily cease as soon as her ports are closed by
winter. The business consequently rests upon
= legitimate commercial basis, independent of
fcticious support either of political or specu-
lative character.

The Boston Post has been publishing the
opinions of the leading business men of
that city in regard to the Fall, which
were Of very hopeful cha. acter. It ap-
pears that there opinions are shared In by
the merchants of New York. The latter
have their expectations upon the large
crops increased foreign trade, the Sc tie
ment of public lands, ard general OPP
inion that the period of depression is
nearly ended. A large trade in the old
sense of the term is not expected, but an
improvement over any former season
since 1873 is looked forward to, and a
healthy revival in all departments of
trade in the near future. We have been
working toward improvement in various
ways. Large crops are assured, and re-
liable estimates give a total yield of
wheat 100000 bushels in excess of
asst years production, though that was
one of the best years on record. Foreign
trade, too, has been rapidly working in
our favor. Tue Western trade is coming
forward promptly and in a good volume.
The Southern trade will be destroyed by
the yellow fever, but later itmay be even
more brisk on account of it. The shaky
houses have hurried up to get the benefit
of the Bankrupt act, and now business
ought to be steadier and frmer than we
have seen it before in months.

1t is curious fact, but nevertheless it
it is true, that many dwellinge once the
homes of poets have been public houses
at one time or other. Burns's native cot
tage was house of this description; the
house in whice Moore was born was a
whiskey shop; and Shelley's house at
Great NARROW was a beer shop. Even
Coleridge's residence at Neither Stowey
became an ordinary beer house. A house
n which James Montgomery lived for
forty years at Sheffield was beer shop:
and the birthplace of Kirke White is now
used as house for retailing intoxicating
BEVERAGES.

A memorial widow recently placed in

Gus. A domestic regulations or Federal

German newspapers correct the asser-
ton published last year, both in Europe
and the United States, that the last of the
descendants of Martin Luther had just
died in one of the smaller towns of Ger
many. The last male descendant of the
reformer departed this life at Dresden in
1889, but on the female side Luther's pos
terity is more fourishing than ever. Its
Oldest and most prominent representative
was Prof. Robbie of the the University OF
Leipsic, distinguished scholar who died
few weeks ago at the age So, and his
place is now taken by Prof. Mobius OF
the University of Kiel.

A writer mentions the fact that sit is
the general custom not to use napkins at
luncheon in England" If John Bull
thinks he is ahead of Uncle Sam in such
etiquette, he is sadly mistaken. Tramps
in this country use neither napkins nor

luncheon. But we don't deem it worth

There is a generally received but erro-
neous notion that the torpedo is modern
inventor, and that during the recent hos
tilities in the East it was for the first
time employed in actual warfare. As
long ago as the 18th of August, 1777, a
boat was blown to pieces and nearly all
its crew killed by the accidental explo
sion of torpedo which had been used in
an attempt made by the Americans
against the English maa-of-war Cerberus
In 1895 brig, which had been anchored
off Deal, England, for the purpose of ex-
periments in submarine explosion, was
destroyed in the presence of Mr.. Pitt and
large concourse of spectators by tor
pedo containing ITO pounds of powder.
Previously, in in 1907, machine had
been designed by which, to use the In
ventors own words, he proposed "to i'm
to carcases of gunpowder progressive
motion under water to given point and
there explode them," and which, there
fore, contained the germ of the present
fish torpedo.
