Grain and Provisions.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, July l3--.Foreign advices
were less bullish in wheat today and the
fear Of what q certain heavy operator might
do, and the belief that he has already dis
posed Of perhaps 2,000,OOO bushels Of his
long wheat caused further declinesi in prices.
Exporters were also mild sellers at New
York. TO offset this somewhat the clear
nnccs Of wheat and -four at Atlantic ports
were over 100000 bushels, with $1,000 bush
els wheat cleared at New York. The theo-
rctical bulls were busy figuring on the
wheat crop Of the world, and yet their cour-
age was not Of the buying sort. There was
selling Of any quantity Of long wheat by
bulls, who, but for the relations Of the operator
mentioned to the pit, would have been in
cronsng their lines, Up 10 within ten min
utcs OF the closing the bottom price was
just lie under the close Of last night. Au.
gust started at soc, sold AT 703sc, up 10 79Nc,
down 10 70ifc, up again 10 70A,c and then
down 10 I0l6c, lie lower than last night II
was q scalpcr's market nil the way down.
September sold 79Ac, down TO 79Isc. De-
ccmbeT opened at SIC, sold ut S2J4c then
went lower with other futures. August
wheat closed &c under last night, at 79Lc.
Closings for other futures were: July, SOssc;
September, 70lsc; December, sllEci May,

lhlI uIlNhNA W ny
raiders conspircd 30 take corn down few
points TO lay This was made all the more
easy because IL was known or imagined that
the country orders early we're TO sell. The
movement Of corn was against the action Of
the market. The out Inspection here reach
ell Jt2, 90 bushels while receipts were many
cars short Of the estimate and only seventy
ears Of the contract grade came in. The
vessel room taken for corn was quite liberal.
July sold at i7i.@I71Gc. closing at 47Lc.
August went from 4sc 10 ~ &c early, back 10
l7isCt4sc later, and before the close went OF
i7kc, or &c lower for the day. There was
at times lively interest In oats, but the
range Of prices was narrow, and prices went
lower with wheat and corn. July sold at Sic
and down 20 3OA.o NJ the close. August
oats ranged from % 10 2jl. closing at IS. &c;
year oats closed at use.
There was fair speculative business In
pork aud short ribs, but lard was quiet and
steady. Arrivals Of hogs we're light aud
prices 5CtiOc higher. Al the opening an in.
creased demand existed from shorts, aud Il
was suspected that one OF the big packers
wanted 10 buy, ~ his trader was In the pit
bidding lie only purchased 1890 barrels
Of pork. The prices advanced l5lsc but
after buyers Withdrew rcccdcd zoe, but be.
came lirmcr toward the close. The last
sales were but &c above inside figures, at
st322H January sold at ti2.S5dl2n5, aud
closed at tl2n6. Short ribs were sold freely
but the market held steady at s752l.CD

THE BLACKSTONE COUPLING

From the Kansas City journal. Jan. b. 1855. !
For years the great Chicago i Alton
RAILROAD Company has been using Il
wonderful coupling. II is u coupling
that absolutely prevents al accident
from broken rails. II you rolpOve six
feet Of rail, leaving u vacant space, no
car can drop down. No ~ cur can
leave the track. The cars are coupled
together at each Orne The train 10
one solid mass. The ordinary railroad
accident cannot happen with II.
One day | was OH ihs great Kansas
City train going fifty miles ALI hgpr. A
little jar told us we had passed over II
broken rail. That broken rail would
have wrecked any train using the old
fashioned coupling. When tins trein
was stopped VS. found lour feet OF the
rail was out, but still 20 GER dropped
down. Each bore its weight on ,he
! other. The Blackstone coupling saved
many lives that day, and the passengers
looked wisely at each other and said
"EheD we go TO Kansas City or ST
Louis or Springfield or Bloomington
we will take the train where the coup
ling Is q life preseryer.'
Ii other roads, instead Of changing
stoves would go TO the root OF the evi
and get the Blackstone coupling, ther'
would be no accidents. The Chats
worth short bridge disaster could no
have occurred on the Alton. The soli'
Alton trains are bridges ip themselves

There is q man running for office
down In Arkansas that no ons even
thinks of trying to beat,a man whom
many Missourians remember and love,
His name is William E. Woodruff, and
he commanded "WOodruf's Arkansas
battery" which did such splendid SER
vice at The battle Of Wilson Greek. At
forward he was major Of artillery, ana
i commanded q battalion of artillery IL
which were one or more Missouri bat
teries at different times. He was 6
thorough officer, Ia camp, in the drill
on the march or In b~attle-strict 80 &c
duty, but genial, gentle and suaye as .
woman in social intercourse. He wal
made deaf by his artillery service, Sc
much 30 that at times be has had 10 use
| artificial aids to be able to hear at all,
but when be whispers in his low and
soft voice that he would like to be re.
elected treasurer Of the state he will bt
heard from one end OF Arkansas 10 thu
! other. There meyer was a truer, pureP
drawer little man wrapped up in 81
much cuts than William E. Woodruff
and his people seem to know it, which
Is al evidence of their appreciation o
genuine, unpretentious worth.
