CHICAGO-The grain markets we're again
feverish, and subject to rapid and wide vari-
ations in price in the carly trading this
morning. Wheat and oats continued ex-
cIted, with occasional spells OF dullness and
closed with decided advances, but corn,
after opening decidedly higher, grew dull
and weak and failed to respond

This was due TO fears of manipulation by n
clique which is said to comprise a number
OF heavy local houses with Eastern backing,
who are supposed to be preparing corner
on september. There were also suspicious
Of many decreases in wheat, but the evil
dence ofthis was not conclusive as the news
OF the day was sufficient in itself consider

vance.

viii Not Suffer From Heat.
New York Tribune.l
'sMy pillow is so hot"' is the frequent
plaint of the tired invalid who vainly seeks
some cool spot on which to rest her fevered
head. 'Change the pillows frequently"
we are told by an authority on nursing, "as
nothing is more restful to patient in sum-
mer than to have a cool support to head and
back The following suggestion therefore,
may prove to be of service:
Take writing paper of any kind-old let
tiers and envelopes can all be made of USE
and cut in strips of two inches long and
about half an inch wide. Curl these with a
dull knife, and after stufing the pillow case
with them sew up the end. The result will
be very comfortable pillow through which
there will be constant circulation of air,
and which will remain perfectly cool.

WASIIINGTON, Feb. 11.-Thc csti-
mates OF the numbers and values Of farm
animals made at the end of each year and

little change in the numbers, except Oh
the Pacific coast and in certain portions
OF the Rocky Mountains, where the win
ter of 1SS9-90 was unusually severe.
The losses were especially heavy on the
Pacific slope.
The number of horses on the farms as
reported is l4,05G, $50 average price of

decline from last year OF 81 cents.

as $3.50.
The estimated number Of sheep arc
43, ,43l 1876; average value $2.5l, an in
| crease OF 81 cents, or more than ten per
cent. All other kinds Of farm animals
have declined slightly in price. Tho
tendency to the increase OF numbers is
seen in most of the States, Though heavy
losses from the severe winter OF last

Sale of tho Column bin Canal

COLUMBIA, S. c., Feb. 1.-THE City
Council has virtually sold the canal to
q syndicate Of Northern capitalist, and
as soon rs the trustees have completed
1T to GerVais street and turned on the
water, 1t will be put in the possession
of these gentlemen, and they propose
then to Immediately carry on the work
as far as CRANKY. The nominal pur-
chasers are Messrs. w. p. IIix, w. III.
Chew and John K. Abney, but it is gen
orally understood that these three gen
tlemen are not the sole purchasers and
represent others as well as themselves
When the canal has been transferred
to these parties, 1t is said that they
will form joint stock company, and
as, with the canal and the canal sites
which they Will control, they will have
III their hands property worth fully
one million dollars, the stock subscrip-
lions can be easily secured; in fact one
gentleman, Il prominent dry goods
| merchant of our city, has already eX-
pressed willingness to take $4,000
stock in the company.
"A gentleman VOL verSed in such mat
tiers, expresses the opinion that the
canal company will be able to transmit
power to any point in the city land it is
said that it can be carried to point
