An Eastern paper, commenting on the
Row prices Of ,cereals, extracts comfort
from the following statement: A dol
lar will buy2 to 81 pounds more of sugar
than a year ago; leather has declined 8
to 5 cents or 10 to Is per cent; pig iron
has declined about Is per cent; bar
iron Is per cent; nails "a pc
cent; steel rails Sc per cent; cot
ton goods 4 to 10 per cent; though
raw cotton is higher than a year ago;
common wooden fabrics are 10 to 80 per
cent lower, etc. The only articles Of
great rcialimportanee which sell
at relatively higher prices are certain
agricultural productions, such as corn,
livestock and meat. It, therefore, re-
suits that q bushel of wheat should have
at present valuations about as great a
purchasing power as year ago, though
the price is much lower. It should
purchase more sugar, Iron, hardware,
and many other articles than year
ago, but of some other articles, such as
coffee and cation goods it will purchase
less. " j. H. T. >4& t@#@1 / =5E r. s#<H

ACalifornian has lately returned from
India, where he gave considerable at
tention 80 wheat raising in that country.
He says: Cheap labor and the Won
derful fertility of the Indian soil apply
to the wheat problem. Two crops will
grow in year, Famines occur in such
country only because the people are
50 poor, not because there is not enough
to eat Opium is now raised in India
under the command of the British Gov
ernment. If that Government should
issue the command to raise wheat, Eng
land is at once independent of the
American crop. The thing is done.
Mr.. Swift thought that in few years
Englands wheat supply night all come
from India.

The impressive and largely attended
ceremonies in the Mormon temple at
Utah over the bodies of the missionaries
murdered in Tennessee, and the spirit
manifested there, are another evidence
of the folly, to say nothing Of the crime,
of bloodshed and violence directed
against Mormonism. 1t is helped rath-
er than hurt by it, strengthened in the
devotion Of its present members, and
made more attractive for proselytes by
the sensation of persecution. The day
is past, when any form of faith, however
repuguaut to moral or social order, can
be attacked by violence; and if Chris
tian persuasion and example are power
less to influence Mormonisrn, there is
nothing but to prevent it's ofenses
against the laws, and leave it alone IN
der the protection to religious freedom
guaranteed by the Constitution.

the assets about $500, 900 The elevators have
passed under the control Of II. J. ONeill Of

usual. Those who hold the wheat receipts OF
the company will lose nothing, as the wheat is
in the elevator Ill their names The cause
which led to the assignments of the Minnesota
Elevator company was the fact that the busl-
ness had been an uphill one all the season,
and the company saw that if they assigned
now they could pay all claims in full, while if
they continue another season they could not.
On Monday they allowed q note Of $1,000 to
go to protest in Milwaukee. When this became
known, c. Bechter issued an attachment, upon
which the company, to protect all parties, made
an assignment, and Judge Z. T. Wilder was
made assignee The capital stock paid in
was 10000, held by the following
gentlemen: G. B. Hotchkiss, Bridgeport
