as the Ministry already declare,
because of an unfavorable season 10
that country aud from statements
made in the House of Commons,
the distress in England is great in
consequence Of a very short crop
there. Perhaps, throughout the
grain growing regions OF Europe,
there has been a short crop al

OF European dispatches, which We
suppose are somewhat colored by
grain spectators in this country

In this country the crop is said to
be good, and it can supply the peo.
pile beyond tho Sen all they need
without such a drain upon our stores
as to make grain dear for our own
people.
Grain has been low in price here
Tor some time. indeed, we might say
too low for the prosperity Of the
country and q moderate advance
IN its price is rather to be desired

The SITUATIoN-A Delegate Meet
ing Resolves TO Stand Out for Fifty
Csnts,-Fifty-fve delegates from the
various mines of the region met in
jones Hall, Homecoming, Wednesday.
John Richie, of Hampshire mine,
was elected chairman, and Michael
Moran, of Jackson mine, secretary
After a discussion of fouc hours a
resolution Swas offered iavoring a
stand-out for fifty cents. The ballot
stood
For SO cents. .... ..............4 40
F" 60 ........
Not voting. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
We understand that the meeting
passed off quietly and that good feel
ing was manifested throughout.
A few mines down the creek are
working at 40 cents--so report states,
Rumors are rife of orders to take
out tools, etc.
Latest advices contradict The re-.
port of strike in Ciearfeld.
So far as we have heard no act Of
violence has attended the trouble.
We are truly glad of this, and earn
estly advise that nothing of the sort
be threatened or harbored, much less
committed; These things detract
very largely from the moral force Of
any popular movement.
The Consolidation company tools
were taken out of the mines yesterday
and the men paid of.
