cause of the recent decline-a slight one-in

WHEAT PROSPECTS.
The New York Herald says that Mr.. Z. II.
Walker, the statlstician Of the New York Prod
uce Exchange, estimates that the wheat crop of
1870 viii amount to 3s5,000,0o0 bn, and that
France will import about S0.000.000 bu; Great
Britain, 100 c0, ,0oo bu; Germany, TO- COO 900 bu;
Switzerland, 100000 bu; Spain and Portugal,
5000, COO bu; and Italy, 25,o00,0o0 bu. He said
good shipments would be made from Australia,
British India, Egypt, Roumdnia, and the Turk
ish pro7iuces. According to Mr.. Walker, the
area under wheat in France in 1877 was 1885,
500 acres, and the crop was mediocre, making
less bread than the smaller crop Of 1876. The
imports Of flour ndiwhcat into France in 1870
II, from Sept. l to Aug. 81, were equal to
II, 1856 554 bu, against exports 6,955,261 bu, Civ
ing net imports over exports, 1884, ,2o3 bu. The
imports for the corresponding period in 1S77-'78
were equal in wheat and flour to 26, ,65S $40 bu Of
wheat, against 3,G03, ,4o5 exported, giving net i'm
ports of 22:56o,Se3 bu. France is bare Of re-
serves of old wheat, and the imports of foreign
wheat have gone quickly into consumption,
leaving only small stocks at the ports otimport,
except Marscilles. The net imports of Wheat
into france in 1s77-'7s, Sept. to Aug. 81, were

that from May 20 to June 12 123 wheat-laden
ships passed the Dardane|les, ii which one only

PICNIC TIME.


The meads with green are garnished DER
THE birds sing in the bowers,
And tr,m the distant Sucker Shore
We Whit tho budding flowers; ~
The pulling brooks ran swift and clear
The merry wondchucks drum
o, season to the poet dear! ,,,.
The picnic days have come!
Thou season of tho year sublime
When Nature tunes her voice, e.
o verml, happy picnic time, iaas
Z. w len Sunday schools rrioice;
Whe little boys and girls 90 ont
: Meath sylvan monarchs Old, #iffss.g RI
And, gaily dance and irsIi about
And catch their deaths a,cold. ~
When sandwiches and buns are ripe,
Cr.qnct and other games.
When stomach aches of every strife 4
Steal on the Youthful frames; al
When Chloe guards with watchful eyes
Her lnver, jealous maid! nj. a31i b
When Dapnis sits on eustafd pies ns
Ard prones where kline have strayetE.
