LONDON, June 28.-The Mark Lane Express

crops have made satisfactory progress, and an
ticipations of good crops are becoming more
confident. The supply of home grown wheat
both at Mark Lane and in the country, are in

shilling decline. Growers yielded with reluc-
tance, but the abundant and relative
cheapness of fine white foreign
wheat rendered millers somewhat
Indifferent to native The weather is now of
paramount Importance, still feeling OF de-
preston is due in great measure to liberal
imports into London, which were l35, ,OU quar-

Trade during the week was confined to
the supply of immediate wants by millers
who were able to satisfy themselves at de-
cline of fully shilling per quarter on white,
and Cd on red, The weather and crop pros
poets have increased iAmericau shipments,
which favor buyers.
Maize was firmly held at last Mondays full

tendency for wheat. The arrivals at ports Of
call have been moderate. The demand for
wheat has been inactive. There have been a
few sales, msstly for the continent, at a de-
cline of shilling per quarter. Only three car
goes of maize were received. and owing to the
scarcity, 26s Sd was paid for mixed Amer
lean.
In wheat for shipment the downward course
of American and Australian prices continued.
There has been a fair business in American
maize on passage and for shipment, at about
late rates. Sales of English wheat last week

1t was reported few days since that a GER
tain disreputable bsntling, of dubious parent
age, named the "Windom Boom,'' had been
lost or most villianously murdered in the great
city of Chicago. 1t is a matter of record that
the foundling was laid at the door of conven-
ton held in that city and that the waif was
disowned by the entire assembly. The GLOBE
can now state that the theory of the child 8
being lost is without foundation. After many
days of tribulation the poor little Window
Boom came home to roost yesterday. 1t
sneaked home like 9 guilty culprit, with feath-
ers besmirched, tail dragging in the mire, and
top-not replaced by bald head. 1t was COM
pletely metamorphosed and bore the sem.
blauce of turkey buzzard. The bird was
shipped from Chicago to Mr.. F. NJ. Finch, Of

epitaph: 'Garfield's Eagle. or the last of the

Philadelphia Times.

Gen. Hancock gives the Democracy bet
ter record than it has given itself and he is
vastly stronger than the party in State and
nation. His candidacy strips the contest of
the last vestige of sectionalisn and leaves the
Republicans with no attribute outside of the
inherent merits of their candidate and pres
ent record that can appeal to patriotism. A
fayorite of the American people, he is no.
bier soldier than Garfield, one whose name is
imperishably interviewer with the achieve
ments of the Army of the Potomac, and one
who, alike in the tempest of battle and in
the more delicate duties of civil administra-
ton, has stood out single from the masses of
our heroes and statesmen. He has no offen-
siYe record of the past, no offensive sur
roundings of the present, no doubtful loyalty
or integrity to fear the critical test OF his
countrymen, and he will run like fire in an
August clearing. fa
