kaxlish Grain Market.

The Mark Lane Erpress says: There is
decided change for the better In the appear
ance OF the growing wheat, which IL now In
full bloom At first sight the fields seem to
promise large crop, but In many fields the
ears are small. With the exception of barley
and oats, appearances at present point to a
fair average yield Of cereals, as far as quanti-
ty is concerned, while the quality is likely to be
mediocre. Insignificant supplies of English
wheat at Mark Lane, and provincial markets,
indicate rapid depletion of stocks In far
mers' hands, and that little, or not any, will be
left over at harvest time. Imports of foreign
wheat into London have been more moderate
OF late, but the supplies go into the granny
rather than consumption. Small lots of white
wheat have been taken off the stands for cen.
tennial account, principally for Belgium and
north France where the crops are unsatisfac-
tory and prices several shillings higher than
10 London, but no further sales OF cargoes of
coast have taken place. Maize has not un.
dergone much change on spot, but new mix
ed American to arrive was offered at 22s. Cd.
per quarter "cx.ehip," price hitherto un.
known for this article. With liberal arrivals
at ports of call the floating cargo trade for
wheat is dull and prices declined fully shil-
ling per quarter. Maize and barley rcceded
fully six-pence per quarter.

Senator Sherman says he has not de-
cided to announce the resumption of specie
payments in advance of the first of January
next, the time fixed by law. He says, howev-
er, resumption may come before that time by
natural causes, or when the premium on
specie shall disappear that We are now ap'
preaching the point; and that 1t is the duty OF
the government to employ all legitimate
means to procure such result. The coin
balance in the treasury is about two hundred
million and steadily increasing, as there is no
idea the balance will fall below the present
figure this, with the present low premium on
gold form the basis Of the general anticipa-
ton here that resumption will occur before
the first of Jannary.

tCOLD SUMNER.
a Man Frozen to Death Amid Intense
Summer Neat.

Mr.. James Knox, young man Of the
eastern part of this county, has been
strangely afflicted for about a year. Hot
or cold, he was always affected as if
freezing to death. His case has been ex-
amined by several skillfal physicians, and
We understand, has puzzled them all. He
was constantly using the devices to warm
himself that man might who had been
chilled by exposure to extreme cold. sit
ting around rousing files, enveloped IN
blankets and the house closely shut up
though the weather was at summer
heat. tits said ne would sit down by the
fire and hold his head down to it and al
most roast it in the effort to warm. 1t is
fact that he put cloths On his head to
protect his scalp from actual burning
while doing thus, and the cloths have
been actually set on fire by the heat he
subjected them to IN endeavoring to
warm his head. Some time ago he made
a visit to Livingston in the hope of being
benefited by the artesian water, when DR..
Webb of that town saw mis- case. Lately
he had determined to return to Living
sic IL and try again the waters. and again
consult DIR. Webb, going to his office for
that purpose. He seemed as one suffer
ing from extreme cold, and asked DR..
Webb if he had any fire in his office. He
told him ne did not, and that it was too
hot to have fire and be comfortable.
He said he could not stand it. and ran
out of the Office into the street for the
benefit Of the sunshine to warm himself.
The next day DIR. Webb had him in his
Office again to make more critical ex-
animation of his case, and had him rous-
ing fire. He carefully tested with ther-
mometer the degree of animal heat he
carried, and found it near normal. With
all of this trouble he lost little flesh, and
kept good appetite for food. and pre-
served rather healthtul look. On Fri
day he started home again in wagon
with Mr.. Meadows driving it. He had
not got far out Of Livingston before he
wanted to return complaining that he was
freezing to death, and wanted to get
somewhere to warm. Meadows insisted
on continuing the journey on home,
and drove forward. Knox jumped outiof
the wagon and ran off into the woods
Meadows pursued him, compelled him to
return and get into the wagon again. and
drove on. He got as far as Mrs. Peteet's
Green Grants old place with him.
Mrs. Peteet had observed Meadows driv-
ing slowly along the road, and knowing
that he had gone to fetch the sick man
home, went out to the gate to make in
quiry. When Meadows drove up and
stopped to her inquiry, he said he be-
lieved Jim Knox was dying. He was ly-
ing stretched helpless in the bottom of
the wagon, and after it had stopped only
gasped few times and died, apparently
freezing to death last Friday, with the
thermometer at ninety degrees.

Gen. Howard sends dispatch from
Cswp Lester of July I'd, in which he gives an

Modoc county, California, are committing
depredations and the citizens are fleeing. The

Complaint was made at Omaha, Neb-
raska, on the End inst, by U. 8. district at
tornev Neville, against H. A. Newman, late
collector Of internal revenues for the district
of Nebraska, John Roberts and W. r Bart
lett, deputy collector. Bartlett is charged
with the embezzlemcnt of $500. Newman
and Roberts are charged with knowing the
fact, but Withholding the same from the
commissioner of internal revenue for the pur-
pose Of shielding Bartlett. The latter return
ed the money subsequently, and Newman's
accounts arc all straight, the government
not losing dollar. Newman and Roberts
were arrested today and waived examination
and gave nominal bonds. Bartlett is now in
Michigan, and will be arrested as soon as
possible. Sympathy here is strong for New
man, as his violation of law was prompted
by pity for Bartlett. whose wife was very i'll
at the time, and exposure then might have
caused hcc death, and as full restitution has
since been made to the government 1t is
considered here very doubtful whether the
grand jury will bring indictments against
Newman and Roberts under the foregoing
circumstances
