The Wheat Market.

| The reports from Europe of possible shorl
crop of wheat have caused feversh excite
ment in this country. The New York Her
aid the Sth says the excitement in the grain
market increased to-day, and wheat has fur.
ther advanced in price from to DC per bush
ell 1t is uncertain whether or not the rise is
healthy one. 1t is what may be termed a
'scrop scare'' and has risen from the reports
of bad weather IN Europe and in the West.
Should the reports be confirmed within few
days it is very probable that the present pri-
ces may be even further advanced. Some OF
the spectators have been bidding to-day
four cents higher than the closing prices yes
terday on the first call, but they weakened
somewhat before the close OF the call, anG
have since been seliing-~or. more definitely
sDeakiag, unloading-at rates below the ex-
trerne prices of the day. This would indi-
cate that the rise does not appear to be
sound one, and that fall is expected when
more definite news is received. at present
the quiet and regular traders do not feel
anxious at the rise, and look upon it as the
annual return of the scare.
:. The London Times of the Sth, in its fnan-
cial article says: The firmness of French
exchange is said to be due TO the prospect of
demand fer gold for the United States in
consequence of deficient harvest. The ac-
counts from the French wheat growing dis
tricts are certainly unfavorable, bus look
ing at the enormous accumulation OF
gold, both here and on the continent,
it seems rather premature to specu
late upon the probable effects of a
a drain thereof to America. The contingency
of Americans preferring to take their own
bonds. as was the case last year, must be
and the probabilities are in favor
Of some improvement in our general bust
ness wita America. 1t is also too early to
assume as certainty that the European
markets will be seriously deficient"
A telegram from London Of the Sth, says:
s.The agricultural prospects cause grave
.pprehensions, and nothing but the speedy
ldvent of sunshine can prevent an almost |
,eneral failure of the principal crops. Wheat
las improved one shilling per quarter in the
asst week in the country markets, but in |
.ondon it is difficult to establish an advance !
n face of the liberal arrivals and low prices |
+ foreign varieties. At Mark Lane on Mon 4
ay, the supply of foreign wheat was fair, |
nd prices advanced one shilling. Flour |
dvancsd Cd. per Dbl. Oats advanced Ss.a
sod. per quarter.

There was considerable activity in the wheat
market in this place, on Tuesday and Wednesday
Prime article brought 81 OsA. with an upward
tendency. This was the result of the foreign
news, indicating short European crop, and es-
pecially the official statement that France ould
be large imp orter of grain this season. Flour
was quoted at 80 to IS for extra Corn, 4e; oats,
80 to 3d. Bacon has experienced slight advance,
and was quoted yesterday ats to &c.
Under the caption OF "Up Goes Grain" the New
YORK Herald OF the 9th, says:
Grain will not be so high this year, we trust as

own people. but it will certainly be sufficient to
make producers and carriers reasonably happy.

Inc explanations given in the British House Of

mat the year has been very bad one with the
farmers. Throughout Europe there has been ali

SHOES FOR WOMEN.

My friend, Mrs. c., in reading the
chapter in "OW GUlS," devoted to
"Boots and Shoes" came to say, that
although she was a great sufferer
from corns, and a general sore and
crippled condition of feet, her shoes
were neverthe ess, enormous, twice
as large AS her feet. She wished |
would see if it was not 80. | exam
med the shoes and agreed with her
that they were too large. As she
stepped, it was doubtless true, as
she said, that her foot rocked over
first on this side and then on that.
Now it pressed over on the outside.
rubbing down over the edge of the
sole and touching the ground, and
perhaps, if the ground was at all unN
even, on the very next step, her
foot would rock over on the other
side of The sole Such friction be-
tween the little toe and the big toe
joints against the upper leather must
inevitably produce corns. | think
the majority Of shoes arc too large.
Mrs. G. wished me to accompany
her to the shoemaker and see what
| could do for her relief, for really
life was becoming torture. We
went to her own shoemaker. Curl
ously enough, his name is Shoemak>
er. Mrs. G. hobbled to seat, and
declared
ri won't try to walk again, thsre y
Her shoe IVES removed, and Mr..
Shoemaker marked around her foot,
while she was standing upon it. We
me asursd the mark and found that
it was exactly four inches. That
was the width of her too; when she
stepped on it without shoe. Then
we measured the sole Of the shoe
she had been wearing, aod found it
Two and a half. inches. Here was
the secret of the whole trouble.
A pair tf shoes were made for her
at once, with soles four inches broad
Now she can walk for hours with
out n pain in her feet.
There are millions of poor suffer
ers 10 the country who are fmping
and hobbling through the world, who
might be perfectly relieved and

DID NOT UNDERSTAND.

Old Mr.. Collamore is very deaf.
The other Sunday in the midst of
the services, Mr.. Hoff, who sits i'm.
mediately behind Mr.. Collamore,
saw a spider travelling over the Iat>
ter's bald head. His first impulse
was TO nudge him and tell him all
about it, but he remembered that
MIR. Collamore was deaf, So he lifted
up his hand and brushed the spider
off Hoff didn't aim quite high
enough, and consequently, in his
nervousness, be bit old Colamore
quite severe blow. The old gen>
tleman turned around in rage to
see who dared to take such liberty
with him, aud Hof began to explain
with gestures the cause of the oct
currence But Collamore 10 loud
voice demanded what it meant. 1t
was very painful to Hoff, The eyes
of the congregation were upon him,
and he grew red in the face. "There
was a spider on your head" "a
white place on my head, hey S'pose
there is. what's that to your said
Collamose; you'll know what it is
to be baldheaded yourself some
day." at was a spider" shrieked
Hoff, while the congregation smiled
and the PRECIPITATION began TO roll
off his face. Certainly its wider"
said ColIamore, land got more in it
than yours. But let it alone-do
you mind 2 You may let my head
alone in church." "Mr. Collamore,"
,hrieked Iloff, "there was a bug on
your head, and | brushed him Off
his way and Holf made another
gesture at Collamore's head. The
lid man thought he was going to
light him then and there, and hurl-
ng a hymn book at Holl he seized

TEE w. AND A. RAILROAD.

A Marietta correspondent to the
Free Press says of this road "Hav'
ing lately travelled over it, | will give
some facts seen and accidentally
gathered that the people may see
what Ex-Governor Brown aud Gem
eral McRae have done to improve
and make their property safe and
lasting, There has been built over
the Chickamauga eleven frst-class
bridges; they are placed on splendid
stone piers of solid masonry and by
iron rods so fastened down as not on
ly to make it impossible for them to
be washed away, but so secure as to
allow trains to pass over them at full
speed. The bridges over Oostanau-
la and Chattahoochee have been
made as safe as new ones. They
will build this summer a new one
over the Alatoona. Seventy five to
eighty miles of the road has been
ballasted. la other words, new ties
have been laid on inch macada~
mized stone and the spaces between
filled in with the same and then GOV
cred with Sufficient earth TO make it
a smooth solid foundation. The great
speed made on this crooked road Of
twenty eight miles an hour, including
stops, has been questioned by some,
but in reality it is safer to run over
this portion of it at forty miles an
hour than over most other roads at
twenty-three or twenty-five miles an
hour, Again, some forty five to fifty
miles of this is laid With the steel rali,
and it is rumored they have some
fifteen miles more of it to lay, aud
that they intend as the road bed aud
iron needs repairing to ballast and
put down the steel rail When it is
all done, we prophecy they will run
the express train over it in from 50
to hours Some seven or eight
miles of wire fencing is seen, and
therefore judge it is therefore their
intention to fence the whole line of
road, and thus protect their property
from liability to damage, and their
from the danger resulting
from running over cattle, etc. Were
they to stop improving, | believe the
road would be at the end of their
lease as good as it was when it was
taken. Secrecy is their motto.
know not their intentions but from
the outlook. The present superior
condition of the road, cars, and en-
gines they will keep all mp 10 high |

find fault with this lease. The months |
