JAY GoULD's recent visit to St. Louis,
and the talk held by him with the mer-
chants of that city, appear to have
greatly encouraged the citizens there
with the idea that st. Louis may hope
ere many years to regain large share of
the grain trade that has been diverted to
Chicago by her system of railroads and
water transportation to the seaboard.
Mr.. Gould .ticklcd the St. Louis folks by
signifying to them his intention to con-
centrate the Western grain crop tribu-
tuary to his roads-say those of Mis-
souri,, Kansas and Nebraska at g..
Louis, and to increase the facilities for
disposing of this by system Of barges
on more extensive scale than
now exists to transport a share
of this down the Mississippi
River. The . great Railroad King
patted the Mississippi encouragingly on
the back, SO to speak, by recognizing
its importance, particularly with refer
ence to the grain trade, an importance
that he thought had been greatly neg
lected. "You have not" said he, "tht
proper means of transportation, and
think you should Immediately seek tt

PROF. BAIRD, Of the Fish Commission,
las imported and is anxious to distribute
throughout the country very consider
able number of German carp, that he
thinks, if domesticated in our waters,
would prove of very great value as an
addition to the choicer food fish of the
United States, especially the South. The
Professor has conducted on an extensive
scale and with great success the Matching
of Goldfish, and aims to stock our sea
coast anew upon the shores of New En-
gland, and further south, where he thinks
this fish should likewise flourish. The
idea of repeopling the ocean with fish
that have been exhausted in certain
localities and in certain inlets and bays
is so novel as to almost excite a smile,
and yet why may not the coast as we'll
as the lakes and rivers be restocked. Ex-
periments are being also conducted with
halibut, and it will likely result in
success in its propagation as we'll as river

ally to be as much under the control of
the Commission, as the planting of new
varieties of corn or the sowing of i'm

United States under the intelligent ac-
tion of the Fish Commission appear to
be in fair way of becoming as fruitful
a source of food as the fields.

OUR HoNORED QUEST.


To-day Cincinnati stretches out her
hands to welcome with an earnestness as
sincere as it is unparalleled in her his
tory the man who was born upon the
hills that border her beautiful river, al
most within sound of her cathedral bells,
and who went forth into the world
callow youth not many years ago, but
now comes back with laurel wreath
upon his brow as proud and honorable
as Cesar's. Since those days when he,
who now is General Grant, played upon
the grassy slopes of our sister county of
Clermont, how manifold have been the
experiences and the triumphs of this
man! Commander-in-C of all
the armies of the United States,
the conquering hero Of the war;
General of the Army when peace
came back to perch upon our standards;
President of the reconstructed and re-
conciled Nation for eight long years of
prosperity and advancement in material
greatness, and finally one long triumphal
procession among nearly every nation
and people on the globe, till now he
comes back to receive these plaudits and
this welcome from the swelling hearts of
his countrymen, the companions and
playmates of his childhood. Where has
history tale more glorious? Where has
fable an invention more truly marvellous
than this? Whether General Grant is
the greatest of living men it matters lit
tie here to inquire; that he is the most
famous none need or can deny. Roscoe
Conkling, of New York, said feelingly in
the Senate of the United States some
months ago that at his approach Con-
tinent stood uncovered. Europe, Africa,
Asia, these have all in turn done
homage to the greatest and most famous
of living men, and at his approach no
country was too remote not to have
heard history of his exploits; no peo-
pie too unlettered not to feel honored in
honoring General Grant. On our own
Pacific Slope, upon his return from this
ovation that attended him around the
world, his countrymen, Union and Con.
federate, Republican and Democrat,
rich and poor, all of every class and de.
gree, of every shade of opinion, went forth
to tender him a welcome to his native
shores such as no other American, living OF
dead, has ever yet received. At Chicago
the same spontaneity was displayed, and
to-day Ohio takes back her son with
much the same feeling of pride and ten
derness the mother feels who welcomes
her first born and best beloved, crowned
with honor, from the fields Of glory and
of danger.
Citizens of Cincinnati, let us make thil
welcome such that General Grant shal
feel, in the years to come, that the hon
ors of foreign nations, the pagesntry o
other lands, the welcome of other peop''
and Of the citizens of other places in tn
United States were tame and cold to tn
heartfelt spontaneity and the tender greet
ing we give to our friend and companion

complain of the small coins that find
their way into offertory bags to substitute
basins. One of the most witty of our

he attends church on Sundays with a

Some years ago the Narysville appeal con-
tanned an account of wonderful meteoric
stone which had so much latent heat in it that
it had to be kept in cold water all the time
to prevent it setting fire to things. This WAS
long time ago, yet the editor of tho paper
is to this day bored with letters from scien-
fists making inquiries about the stone. The
man who wrote the dreadful lie left the office
long ago, bat his successors still feel his pres
ence through the letters which come from all
parts Of the globe. For time they answered
these Communications by shipping brick c.
O.. d. to all inquirers; but after while this
got nonotonous and bricks got scarce These
yarns from the pens Of such imaginative writ
ers as Dan De guile or the late Chester Hull,
gradually creep into history and a hundred
years from now they will DO printed in books
and read as literal facts. When We read of
wonderful things which happened in past cen
turtles, a littls reflection leads us to conclude
that the tales which astonish and amuse US
had just such an origin as the moving stones
described by Dan de guile. Don't believe
