MAJOR G. G. Newman's new paper,
the Pine Bluff Commercial, has made
its appearance, and quite filed what
was expected of such an experienced
and accomplished journalist. 1t is to
be a newsy, live, progressive, inde-
pendent newspaper. The editor is a
democrat, but independent in thought
and action. The Commercial will at
once take leading and influential
position, and doubtless do good work
for its section and state. We hops it
will be splendid success.

few localities, the. Forty-second gen

Crop Reports.

ST.. LOUIS, April 21.-The Post
Dispatch publishes very full reports
to-day from Illinois, Missouri, Iowa,
Kansas and Nebraska relative to the
last corn crop raised in those states.
These reports generally show that the
crop fell short Of 1879, not SO much
through decrease in the acreage as
through a smaller yield. This was
more particularly the case in Illinois,
Missouri and Kansas. The other
states, Iowa and Nebraska, produced
large and full crops The quality
compares we'll with the pre-
ceding year, but a large
amount was damaged, especially
in Iowa, by heavy SHOWS that fell and
covered the grain in cribs as well as
in the fields. The amount cribbed at
the country shipping points was large
in Iowa, but generally small else.

more than usual to stock owing to the
severity of the winter. Prices paid al
