STA UNION GRAIN AND PRO-
DUCE MAR KETS.

The week has been one of unusual in
terest to all grain dealers, and farmers who
still have wheat in their barns. The war
news from Europe has been of character
too serious to be ignored. Prudent and
thoughtful business men have been acting
with great caution and have been anxious
to do business, and yet not be cleft" if
the market turned the wrong way. Far
mers, too, have not known just whether
the time had come to sell, and as result
the volume of trading has not been large.
Wheat has advanced fully ten cents, and
rests now at 81. We have heard Of but one
sale over that, Mr.. Thornton G. Stout,
sold 1000 bushels to a Staunton dealer, at
$1.00, deliverable in May; but this is con-
sidered over the regular price now current.
Hay continues very scarce, indeed
scarcer than for years in this section.
Timothy will bring say SIS so, almost the
price now paid in Richmond. The causes
influencing the advance in wheat have
operated with equal force on flour, ad-
yancing the prices so cents on all grades.
Staunton Inspection Extra is quoted at
$500 from first hands.

If our contemporary of the VIND1oAToR would
call to mind the fact that a Readjuster legisla-
ture was elected in 1879, and the party con-
tinued in power until 1883, it would hardly
contend that the transfer of lunatics from the
iails to the asylums in 1882, was not the
result of Readjuster management.-V Valley
Vi,yiniGn.
A Read ulster legislature aoas elected in
1879, but the Democrats, There being a
Democratic Governor) remained in con-
troll of the Asylum, with DR.. Fauntleroy
as Superintendent. until March Is, 1882.
It was during that administration that the
large addition to the male buildings was
commenced and completed. That building
was then filled with patients from the
older buildings, and the latter then alter
ed. The alterations were completed in
January, 1882, and the sherlffs of the
State were notified of the ability to take
patients from the jalls. This transfer
from the jails commenced in February
and was in progress when the Readiuster
Board came in March 18th. These are
facts that ought to be understood; for the
history of the struggles and pluck and de-
termination of the administration and of
the Board, of which Col. Bumgardner was
President, that went out March 18th, 1882,
their contest with the lack of money, their
support of the Asylum On borrowed funds
flor much of which individual obligations
were given, and their steady progress in
erecting new accommodations in spite OF
all difficulties, ought to be recognized aside
from all political considerations.

Newspaper reporters it is said, make
many great men, but while that is true it
could be added that they mar as mapv
already great. Four years ago a mass
meeting of Catholics was held at st. Peters
Cathedral in Richmond, to protest against
King Victor Emanuel forcibly occupying
Rome. The resolutions adopted were very
severe on the King. and Hon. Anthony M
Kelley supported them in a speech in
which he was reported the next morning
