SHEEP AND WOOL.

Wisconsin has 5s,4S7 focks of sheep.
The annual product of wool in the
United States has now reached 100000
600 lbs, and 100000 are annually
slaughtered for mutton.
A. B. Allen thinks that point which
merino sheep breeders ought to look
after now is the breeding off ofthe horns,
holding, with good reason, that no bene-
fit follows their existence.
The improved Leicester sheep is horn
less has small head, bare poll large,
bright and prominent eyes clean, white
face and legs +; square deep neck and
shoulders straight, fiat, broad back !;
deep body fine bones, and juicy, ten
der flesh, with the preponderance of fat
more on the outside than the inside of
the body. The fleece is fine, silky,
glossy and white, of moderate length,
often weighing ten pounds.
The number of sheep to each 100 in
habitants of the woo1-growing countries
is as follows Europe, 66 United States,
Is; Canada, II; South Africa, $50
Australia, 1902 In 1880 there were ex-
ported from Australia 154, 81 1872 lbs.
of wool.
We would suggest to the wool grow
ers the ACCESSIBILITY of holding their clips
at home, when they have facilities for
doing SO, and keeping their wool in good
order until the trade is in a more salts
factory condition and there is a better
demand for wool. The holding back in
the hands ofthe growers off considerable
portion of the clip will relieve the pres
sure and over-crowding of the principal
wool markets. Wool Journal.

Cholera, from latest reports, appears

Cholera, from latest reports, appears
to be gradually spreading in Southern
Europe, occasioning much alarm, es-
pecially in France. The country on
this side of the Atlantic is becom-
ing pretty thoroughly aroused, and
precautionary measures are being
taken in most cities to guard against
this terrible scourge. Should the
cholera not visit this country, expendi-
lures for sanitary purposes will still
be wise investment for warding off
other diseases. Glad to know the au-
thOrities of this city are not Indifferent
in this matter.

ALLEN & CO.'S WOOL CIRCULAR.

There is more doing in unwashed
woods on basis of the low prices lately
prevalent, and there seems to be little
better feeling developing, though the
market is by no means active, but con-
siderable Of the brighter, more desirable
woods have gone into consumption at
about the following range of prices, at
which the market may be quoted fairly
steady, and if the present good grain
crop prospects are realized, likely to
continue so through the fall-but with
the abundant supplies of wool, also large
supplies and exceedingly low prices OF
wooden goods, it may well be doubted
if any early improvement in prices can
be expected.
Bright Wis, etc., fine unwashed has
been in good demand at 18c to Zoe light,
13c to 17c heavier, and the brighter
Neb., Kas., ETC., at Ice to TIC light, and
12c to lac heavier, depending on con-
dition. Some very excellent woods have
been received from Dakota, selling at
very nearly or quite the prices of Wis,
ETC., while other clips are poorer. Me-
dunn and low combing unwashed
woods have been taken at unchanged
prices and are still wanted, but 3c less is
now considered probable on blood
These prices, it will be noticed, are full
ly up to the range of prices East. Fine

THE IRISH IN FORCE.

A large and enthusiastic Irish meet
ing in favor of Blaine and Logan was
held at Chickering Hall, New Yorl
city, on Monday evening last. 1t is
an event uncommon to see Republic
an Irish meeting of great magnitude
in the city of New York. Heretofore
the Irish citizens have allowed them.
selves to be controlled and ordered in
to line by the Democratic leaders. A
new order of things is being organized
in New York. The Irish have broken
away from the party they have so long
served, with no advantage. 1t was
announced by the chairman of the
meeting from the platform, that be-
sides the hall being filled to repletion
the space for two squares away was
crowded with people anxious for adj
mission. A good idea may be gained
of the Irish movement from the follow
ing, taken from the Tribune:

New York and vicinity, who have

The unusual violent wind and
thunder storms which have visited
the country for a year or more past
seem not to have lost their force.
Many cities and villages last week in
this state experienced damaging
storms, unroofing buildings, tearing
down church steeples, demOlishing
fences. and, above all, doing great in
jury to growing grain crops. Terrific
thunder storms are reported at various
places. In this city, on the early morn
ing of Thursday, the continuous blaze
of lightning dispelled the darkness, and
the quick and sharp successive explo-
sions OF electricity in the air rendered
the scene to some persons not so pleas
ant to witness. Scientific observers
believe there has been some change of
position in the heavenly bodies to
render cyclones more common than
years ago; but no satisfactory explana-
ton thus far has yet appeared.

MAUGER & AvERY's MONTHLY Wool
CIRCULAR.

CHICAGO, July "a, 1884.
There is but little change in the con
dition of the wool market during thu
past month compared with the proceed
ing month, except a lower range O
values. Business has been at stand
still. Purchase has been stopped on &C
count of money facilities, and sales have
been only possible at steadily declining
lprices.
The refusal of banks to furnish
money to move the clip has probably
proved of benefit to the market, which
otherwise would have. become over
stocked, and woods would have been
slaughtered. The stringency in money
occurred at a time when wool dealers
are strongest as regards their own CAPT
tai, and will have no worse effect on
them than preventing them from carry
ing as much wool as usual at this time
of year.
We believe that wool should be held
by the farmer until required for market,
and possibly this seasons experience
may result in a change in the manner of
buying in the West that will be of benefit
to all Interested.
The demand for wool has been princi-
pally for the cheapest parcels of x and
above, and unwashed woods have had
the preference. Michigan x has moved
slowly at 20 to 30c, with some small
sales at lower prices. Ohio Xxx has
been in moderate request at low prices,
but K Ohio has been neglected. All
grades of staple woods have been in light
demand, though, as we write, there is
more inquiry for them.
Territory woods of the finer grades
have met with fair demand, as sellers,
as rule, have accepted the situation
and sold when opportunity offered.
Foreign wools-Australian woods, ex-
cept of choice or very fine quality, are
hardly saleable and the market will soon
be relieved by exports. Cape I'M

the claim Of the Democratic party that
1t has inherited the principles of JeffeF-
son, Madison and Jackson, and that its
action is in the same line with these
honored men. This is gross psrvsr-
sion of history. and is only calculated
to deceive the ignorant classes. Col
Villas, who just now is accounted Wis
consin's great Democratic orator, free
ly INDUCED in this fulsome, RUTHLESS
kind Of defamation in the Chicago
Convention. Can Col. Villas and his
co-orators blot out history? Where
do they find anything in the teachings
Of Jefferson, Madison and Jackson to
justify nearly every Democratic state in
going out of the Union, and making
open war against the rightful govern
ment? Every one Of these rebellion;
states was Democratic. and in every
one Of the northern states The friends
and sympathizers with the rebellion
were to man Democrats.
| Col. Villas and his associate peryert
ers of history are old enough to remem
Der twenty years ago. when this same
Democratic party assembled in Ma
tional Convention in Chicago ani
declared the war, which had been il
progress four years, a failure, its prose
cution violation of the constitution
and demanded that immediate effort
be made for cessation of hostilities.
| Was this action Of the Democratic part,
in accordance with the principles ant
policy of Jefferson, Madison and Jack

soldiers by northern Democrats to pu
down the rebellion the old Jefferson
ian policy, which is so much lauded b.
the Democratic orators? These mel
who talk so boastful Of the record o

men, but they presume largely on tn
ignorance and stupidity of the peopl
whom they address.

BOASTFUL PERYERSIONS on
HISTORY.

The Democratic party, since the war
has every year become more and more
boastful and assuming. 1t claims all
the good legislation that has been ac-
complished the past fifteen or more
years. That party now claims merit
for the enactment of the very meas
ures which it once strenuously op-
posed; it arrogantly assumes to have
done what it never attempted to do.
But the most presumptuous of all is

more are to be added to the main

A FEW HINTS
FOR THE USE OF

For Constipation, or Costiveness, no
remedy is SO effective as AYERS PILLS.
They insure regular daily action, and re-
store the bowels to healthy condition.
For Indigestion, or Dyspepsia, AYERS
PILLS are invaluable, and sure cure.
Heartburn, Loss of Appetite, Foul
Stomach, Flatulency, Dizziness, Head
ache, Numbness, Nausea, are all relieved
and cured by AYERS PILLS.
In Liver Complaint, Bilious Disorders,
and Jaundice, AYERS PILLS should be
given In doses large enough to excite the
liver and bowels, and remove constipation.
AS cleansing medicine in the Spring, these
PILLS are unequalled.
Worms, caused by morbid condition Of
the bowels, are expelled by these PILLS.
EruptiOns, Skin Diseases, and Piles
the result Of Indigestion or Constipation, are
cured by the use of AYERS PILLS.
For Colds, take AYERS PILLS to open
and allay the fever.
For Diarrh@a and Dysentery, caused by
sudden colds, indigestible food, etc., AYERS
PILLS are the true remedy.
Rheumatism, Gout, Neuralgia, and
Sciatica, often result from digestive derange-
mept, or colds, and disappear on removing
tho cause by the use of AYERS PILLS.
TumOrs, Dropsy, Kidney Complaints,
and other disorders caused by debility or
obstruction, are cured by AYERS PILLS.
