HeRALp OFFIcE,


WEpNEsptY EVENING, October 70, 1851.
Business was not as brisk to-day as usual
the rains and roads interfering with travel
and preventing the shipment OF many lines
of goods. Still the leading houses were
using every effort 10 get otlas many of their
orders as possible under these adverse cir
cumstances. Prices have not changed ma
terially in groceries or dry goods, Nails
have gone up u tritle, and are firm at 40
rates. Sweet potatoes are dull at Loo per
bushel, while cabbage is firm at G.I51IOo
per crate. All kinds of esculents are very
firm with an advancing tendency. Country
produce is scarce.
1t is said the potato crop of Iowa is almost
failure from drouth, while that OF Ne
braska, Minnesota, Wisconsin and all the
eastern states is nearly up to an average.
In the middle states the crop is short about
one-third Of an average. :,
Reports ON the apple crop continue dis
couraging. Stocks are being rapidly ex-
hausted and dealers fail to see where
enough fruit is coming from to supply the
trade for next year.
The hog crop in the United States last
wear aggregated 100000, of which
number 100000 were handled ut the Union
stock yards. Chicago. Secretary Blaine has
been officially notified that the importation
of American pork at Pesth will be prohib-
tied.
About 1900 tierces of lard have been
shipped from Chicago direct to foreign
ports within the past two weeks. Shippers
are taking advantage of cheap freights.
The number Of bushels of shell oysters
taken this year from Virginia waters will be
about 5000 600, and more than third OF
this amount is handled by the packers Of
Norfolk and Portsmouth. The estimated
value of these is about $350,0OO.
In the statistics Of the Cuban cigar indus
try very curious fact starcs US in the face,
and that is that more cigars are exported an
nually than the island produces. During one
year the figures published by the local au-
thorities showed that 100000 cigars were
exported in excess of the number that could
be manufactured from the quantity of leaf
grown.
Smokers will be glad to learnthat genuine
Havana cigars Will be cheap and plenty
this season, as the crop of Connecticut to-
: bacco promises to be very large.
Matchmaking may be called II truly Ameri'
can industry, for, although nails were made
in the mother country even before America
was discovered, the world owes to this
country the invention and the perfection
of the nail cutting machinery now in use.
COTTON.
The receipts were again light
owing to the rain There were on
the market about eighty bales, which ar
rived over the Trunk line, Dallas Il Wichita
and by wagon. Prices have not changed
here although they declined an eighth in
New Orleans and other markets. In Liver
pool spots were firm and active, but there
was no advance in prices.

The Florence Nightingale of the Nursery.

The following is an extract from letter
written to the German Reformed Mcssen-
ger, at Chambersburg Penn:
A DENEfACTREss.
Just open the door for her, and Mrs.
WnSlow will prove the American Florence
Nightingale of the nursery. OF this we are
so sure, that we will teach our "Susy" to
say, "a blessing ON Mrs. WinslowH for
helping her to survive and escape the grip
ing, colicking, and teething siege. Mrs.
Winslow's Soothing. Syrup relieves the
child from pain, and cures dysentery and
diarrhma. 1t softens the gums, reduces in
iammation, cures wind collie, and carries
the infant safely through the teething
period. 1t performs precisely what it pro
esses TO perform, every part of it-nothing
less. We have never seen Mrs. Winslow--
know her only through the preparation OF
her Soothing Syrup for children teeth
ing" five had the power we would make
her, as she is, a physical saviour to the in
FAINT race. Sold by all druggists. % cents

these articles have been marked by manip-

The Boston Bulletin, u commercial paper,
rejects the opinion that we are in an era of
wild speculation, and that we have not vet
reached the top of the incline. The Chi
cago Times says: Nobody outside of inter
cstcd parties denies that there has lately
speculation in grain, and how anybody
can deny that there has been something of
the kind in stocks is mystery, If gam

Bile dividends is not speculation, per
haps some one will be good enough
to states what it is. High prices
will diminish the demand for pro-
duets, the markets Will be glut'ed, prices

business largely on credit will go under.
