ENGLISH MARKETS.

Lower Prices.
says: A decided improvement in the weather
the past week facilitated wheat sowing, which
is fairly Harvard. In the southern and some
of the midland counties of Scotland the COM
mencement of snow and night frosts have
necessitate the reaping of March grain in an
imperfectly ripened condition. The root crop
is only expected to be half an average yield.
It ia stated that the prospect is more serious
than ever encountered by the present generation
of Scotch farmers. Irish reports are less IN
favorable, the weather having been very fine.
at Mark Lane English wheat was rather
more freely offered, but the supply is undoubt.
eddy small for this time Of the year. The con.
dition is somewhat improved, owing to more
fayo able weather for threshing. At major
ity of provincial markets business has been
quite i!npractioable, rs e. large proportion of
the grain offered has been useless to millers.
The few fine dry lots to he met with changed
hands on former terms, while inferior parcels
were quite neglected.
The imports of foreign wheat into London
have been fair but not excessive. There was
then some reaction has taken place. Specu-
!ators held aloof and confidence was somewhat
shaken by the increased visible supply in
America. Holders, however, have been upheld
by the ri,e of prices in New York, and there
has been no disposition to force sales. On the
whole there has been only a retail consumptive
demand, which was satisfied at previous prices.
Sales of English mailing barley was checked
BY liberal imports of French and German bar
ley. Maize was neglected, and prices were
slightly easier despite the comparative absence
Of arrivals.
The arrivals at ports of call have been large.
Wheat is in a state Of suspension, buyers hold
ing off, pending further arrivals, and prices
are fully a shilling per quarter lower on the
week. Maize is in fair demand, at about
three pence per quarter decline. Business IN
wheat for shipment is very limited at about
two shillings per quarter decline. Maize and
barley easier.
Sales of English wheat last week, 36.652
quarters, at SOS I'd per quarter, against 52.S67
quarters at 39s Sd per quarter the same week
last year. The imports into the United King
dom for the week ending Nov LIST were :085,-
766 hundred weights of wheat and 279, 696 hum
dred weights of -four.

be transferred bodily from the sub-treasury

1t is to be regretted that the two great DO

The several States. While the aggregate vote

very far apart, it ia extremely one sided in
many of the Staten Nearly all the South

ties. The consequence is that nomination
by the Democratic party in Kentucky, Mis-.
souri,, or Georgia is equivalent to an cleo
ton, while nomination by the Republicans
IN Massachusetts OF Pennsylvania is equally
certain to lead to IN election. The result
10 not satisfactory in either section, for it
transpires too often that men totally inf:
for Official position succeed in reaching 8
point from which they can do much injury
to the pnblic interest This is grave fault
for it seldom happens that men are chosen
for their capacity. Thoy simply sue

'~o-oA" ~ AAo''AAo oA"S CLIO OAtou grossly ulS-
reputable and ought to disqualify them from
holding anyfofice of profit and trust.
There are few cities and States that are
most admirably governed. In these the par
ties are very nearly evenly divided. In order
to succeed at tho polls, both parties are
compelled to place their best men in nomi-
nation, and no matter which wins the day,
the people are certain that there will ba no
maladministration of their affairs. This is as
it should be everywhere. Only men of un-
doubled ability and integrity should be NOM
mated, and in case unfit mon were placed
upon ticket it should be in the power of
the people to defeat them in such manner
as to teach lesson to all future nominating
conventions. Large majorities for either
party are not at all desirable, for they lead
to an abuse of political power that always
disastrously affects the people. But as I'm.
selflshness is not a characteristic of politi-
clans We do not expect that any of them will
make the endeavor to equalize the numerical
strength of the parties, no matter how many
positive benefits would flow from such q
regulation of affairs. If it should come
about, however, that neither party could rely
upon positive majority the country would
be better governed than it now is, and the
people would have reason to be thankful.

THERE seems to be now but little opposi-
ton to the election of Garfield as Senate,
from Ohio, in place Of DIR. Thurman. Sher-
man is out OF the field, and will devote his
entire time henceforward to the cultivation
of Presidential timber. Stanley Matthe vs.,
Cox, Dennison, and Taft, would all like the
place, but have little following in tho legis.
latnre. Gen. Garfield has fairly earned the
position, if his party has the power to give
it to him, and it would be base ingratitude to
throw him overheard.

The First Discovery.
Todd County Argus. Nov. |

I-S OoAHy
| For some months past two men named Col
| way and Steinhuber have been living together
| in the town of Ward in tho vicinity of Harris
mill. Several times Last week neighbors called
| there, but found the house closed and no one
| around and it was supposed they had amply
| gone away to attend to business. The first of
| this week man went there finding everything
| silent and deserted. opened the door and found
| the house occupied by hog. He closed the
door and looked in through the window and
| saw things which prompted him to call few
| neighbora. On Tuesday about fifteen men, in
| Guiding Justice Bassett, of Hartford, visited
the place and made examination. They
found in the wall over the bed seven buckshot
buried in the wood. A coat which was hang
ing there apparently at tina time the shot was
fired was penetrated by the shot and was spiat-
tered with blood and what appearedto be brains.
piece of bone which resembled the finger
bone of a mans hand was found sticking to
the coat, and piece of skin and flesh was
found on the wall. In front of the bed on the
floor was the distinct marks Of great pool Of
blood which b ad penetrated the cracks in the
floor and saturated a portion Of the potatoes in
the cellar. The ak on the wood pile was cover.
ed with blood on one side as also was the door
frame on one side about the right height from
the floor to indicate the position of mans
body as it was being carried out by two men.
The wardrobe of the two men, except that
uSuoAAJ WILL oSSt5 Sadys was uAA1SUIEDcO anu
their firearms and watches were also in their
usual place, except the gun which was loaded
and lying on the floor. The pipes were found
in their accustomed box, which indicates that
they had not gone away on business, or they
would have taken them along.
Those who are conve1sant with affairs in the
neighborhood of the supposed tragedy have not
long to hunt for parties to whom every circum-
stance points as the gnilty parties. Suspicion
attaches to one John Medic and his brother,
who are noted characters in that neighborhood.
1t will be remembered that some time ago the
argus spoke of a man in Ward having taken
another mans wife. Galway, one of the miss
ing men, was the husband of the stolen woman
whom he married in Wisconsin last spring, and
John Meid and his brother are the men who
took her and have been living with her for the
last six months. The other day while the
Medic brothers were off hunting their house
was burned with ell it's contents. and John
Meide was heard to declare that he knew of two
men who done the deed and he would have re.
venge. he said that two men had to go into
hole. These threats were made before several
reliable men. The two missing men were quiet
peaceable citizens and most likely had nothing
to do with the burning of the house, which was
done by some of tho enraged citizens of the
community who were tired of such disgraceful
conduct as these parties we're guilty.
