AUTUMN SUNSHINE.

Torments as W. II as blessings some
times brighten as they take t"eir fligh ,
and ameng these must be reckoned tire
sunshine, which few weeks ago was
more dreaded than the worst enemies.
Even now il is severe enough to p des-
TRANS on the bright side of the street in
the middle Of the day; hut morning and
afternoon there is something almost
life-giving in the light and warmth
something that seems to make men and
women as genial as the atmosphere it.
SELF. In such light and air the people
in the street look cheerer than usual !;
the car driver CHATS the truckman who
obstructs his right of wav, instead Of
cursing him, and even the tramp loses
enough surliness to be able to leave an
area doorway without frightening The
life out of the cook. People are max
ing excuses to get into the street if they
have anything to do, well and good, but
If not they are just as happy while doing
nothing but lounge along and look at
other loungers as good-natured as them
selves. There are only few such days
IN the year, and perhaps it is well that
this is so, for month Of such weather
would make every one unspeakably
law; while it lasts, however, the most
industrious man will not think to OBJ
ject to it.

LONDON, June 28.-The Marx Lane Ezpress
says: Despite somewhat too much rain, the
cropa have made satisfactory progress. and an
ticipations of good crops are becoming more
confident. The supply of homo grown wheat
both At Marx Lane and in the country, are in

che.pness Of 6no White foreign
wheat rendered millen somewbst
Indifferent to native. Tho weather il now of
paramount importance, still . feeling of de-
preston is due in = great measure to liberal
imports into London, which were l35 600 quar-
ters during the past fortnight.
Trade during tho 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, Thel weather and crop pros
poets have increased .American shipments,
which favor buyers.
Maize was frmly held 1t laat Mondays full

tendency for wheat. The arrivals at ports of
call have been moderate. The demand for
wheat has been inactive. There have been .
few sales, mostly for the continent. at . de-
cline of . shilling per quarter. Only three car
goes of maize we're received. and owing to the
scarcity, PCS Sd Was paid for mixed Amer
ican.
In wheat for shipment the downward coune
of American and Australian prices continued.
There has been . far business in American
maize on passage and for shipment, at about

The Best Wealth.


The great struggle with civilized men
in this world is for wealth. This is cali
ed the prime good, the one thing need
full, the great desideratum of life. So
men toll for it--.deceive. cheat, defraud
for it: Give time, strength, and too often
good health for it. The truth is the es.
innate put upon wealth is too high. Its
value, its good is isoverrated. It is not the
great good, not the pearl of great price
It is not the best thing man can have.
It does not confer peace of mind, nor
purity of heart, heartfelt happiness nor
eontentment, nor home joy, nor social
blessedness, nor any kind of solid and
enduring enjoyments. Wealthy homes
are often no happier than those Of tho
poor and comfortable livers. Poverty il
always an evil but fair supply of the
necessaries and comforts of life is quite
as apt to confer real peace as great
wealth.
