my duty to the city over whose welfare have |
been called to preside, and to the public at |
large, which is being UNANIMOUSLY deceived by |
incendiary Misrepresentation as to our situa- |
ton, to declare in a most emphatic and public |
manner that there is not, and never has been,
the slightest reason to apprehend any disturb
ance, riot or lawlessness whatever from the
working classes of San Francisco. If trouble
comes to us it will not come from them. Most
nexcusable and outrageous means are being
used by designing men to goad them into

them that that they will so continue, and l
further declare, however people abroad may
be imposed on, that the people of this city sec

military interference, police increase and in

The Mark Lane Express in its review
of the British grain trade the past week says
The weather has been seasonable and a con.
siderable area of spring grain has been sown
An early and favorable seed time seems likely
to be secured. Autumn sown wheat presents
generally satisfactory appearance as also
do the pastures. Offerings of home grown
wheat at country markets were generally
scanty, farmers having been occupied witt
field work. The demand for fine wheat fol
sowing has recently been pretty active in thu
| provinces but in London the reserve shown
by millers restricted sales and last weeks open
ing prices were barely maintained. Arrival
