II lit be true, ns stated by some of our
contemporaries, that members of the Farm.
ers' Alliance take an oath to support all the
measures of that body or be expelled or
leave, then the Alliance in Virginia rests on
shaky foundation. There is not a sensi-
bic member of the order who approves of
the sub-treasury scheme, and not one who
can consistently vote for it. If loyalty to
the sub treasury chimera means loyalty to
the Alliance, therefore, it is safe to predict
that the ranks of the order will be decimat-
ed in Virginia in very short order. It is
hard to imagine how men of sense can con-
sent to make machines of themselves, and
deliberately bind themselves with oaths
which force them to yield their individual
ity and compel them to the Endorsement Of
measures to which their intellects are dia-
metrically opposed. Richmond Times.

WASHINGTON, August 30.-The follow :
ing dispatch, dated Valparaiso, August 80,
has been received at the Navy Department
from Rsar-Admiral Bro wn:
The insurgents have possession of the
city of Valparaiso. It was taken yesterday
A. NJ. after very sanguinary engagement.
The government had the acknowledgement
position-but lost the day through bad
generalship. The government troops are
disafected. The insurgent ships were not
present and the forts were not engaged
The government war-ship Lynch, with three
second-class torpedo boats, was captured.

Senior Montt explained that this meant
that the congressionalists were about to
transfer their headquarters to the capital
instead of remaining at Iquique.
At a late hour last night the congression-
al ENJOYS received the following dispatch:
.IQUIQUE, Aug. 29.-Don Pedro Mont,
Washington: According to an official dis
patch from Commander Montt, of the con
gressional naval forces, in the battle of
Concon the enemy lost 1900 men and an
equal number of prisoners were captured.
Two thousand rifles were taken, besides a
number of field pieces. Our loss was sos,
and among the killed were officers. In

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
THE GRAIN TRADE, CROPS, &c.

The Cincinnati Price Current Of August 18th
says:
There has been a liberal rainfall the past
week in many portions of the West. This has
been beneficial to corn in some regions, and
has been especially helpful to pasturs ge. which
fact. with the more assuring position Of the
corn ciop, has stimulated interest in the cat
tie industry. 1t is fair to say that the corn
crop has now reached a decidedly better avers
age condition than was apparent two or three
weeks ago. and nothing short OF extraordinary
drawbacks from early hard freezing conditions
can reduce the aggregate production below a
good average quantity. A crop Of 100000. 600
bushels is quite within reasonable expectation,
and 2,OO0 00O. GOO is possibility. on the present
outlook.
The rains have favored fall blowing, for
seeding, and In limited areas have been suffi-
GENTLY excessive to retard such operations.
The indications now are that an enlarged
acreage will be devoted to wheat the coming
season.
In some regions west OF the Mississippi river
the excessive moisture has injured stacked
grain to a considerable extent. This has low.
cred the quality and delayed the marketing of
the grain.
Our correspondence reflects considerable in>
clination TO hold wheat for better prices, but
not uniformly SO BY any M cans, and in many
cases the offerings have been free at current
values. which have furnished a satisfactory
return on the good yield secured.
The week has been one OF continued sharp
changes in prices Of wheat In the speculative
markets, but without the extraordinary shift
ing of position noted for the preceding week.
The close at Chicago is 5000 higher than a
week ago, and 39ssc for September and 4ss, for
December below the highest figures of the
week.
Wheat receipts at primary markets were
65S7 900 bushels for the week. against Gill, coo
the preceding week. and 2.2lO coo last year.
Corn receipts were 2.l99,0OO bushels. against
2.OOe. 600 the preceding week. and 1891 goo last
year."

For the SPECTATOR.

In your last weeks paper the communica-
ton headed "a Sad Reflection" and signed
''Civis" is SO appropriate and true. that think
the sentiments therein expressed ought to be
endorsed by every good citizen who has the
welfare OF his county and of his fellow man at
heart. therefore not only write this en-
dorsement OF "Civis" but trust that he may
continue to apply the lash TO the guilty ones
until:they may be brought to see their great
folly.
The writer of this was present few weeks
ago when paper was carried around to OBJ
tain the signatures Of good citizens of his
neighborhood In behalf of temperance, and on
a Sabbath day saw it presented to many of his
friends at church. (which was a communion
occasion. Many signed 1t. thus giving their

His remains were brought home on Mon
day last and were inferred IN the Catholic

large concourse of friends and relatives,
that accompanied his remains from White

TIE War in Chill Ended.
THE INSURGENTS SUCCESSFUL.

The N. Y. Herald says that its especial
despatch from Valparaiso announces that
Balmaceda has yielded Santiago, the CAPT.
tai, to the insurgents. This means that
the war is ended, for the revolutionists hold
the seaports and capital, which means that
they have possession of the machinery OF
the government and control the sources of
the nations income-the custom houses.
Balnaceda has nothing left to fight for,
unless he hopes to be pensioned on condi-
ton that he leaves the country, that being
one South American method Of suppressing
troublesome leaders who can't be captured
and shot. It is unlikely, however, that the
ex-President has the men, arms and am
munition to pro long the conflict even in a
small way. Beaten armies in South Ameri-
ca are generally quick to disintegrate, the
individual fragments returning to their
homes or gong into the ranks of the vic
tors, where no questions are asked.
If another outbreak occurs it will prob
ably be because of an attempt to install
Vicuna, elected President short time ago
by the Balmaoedists. That such an OF
tempt, howev er, will be made is very un-
likely. Vicuna is no wild adventurer,
but man of education and experience,
and he will not imperil his future political
prospects, his business interests and his
head by coantenancing any demonstration
in his favor by few malcontents. What
ever the managers of the victorious Con-
gressional psrty may decide upon in recon-
structing the government will be accepted
by the majority Of the people, all of whom
by this time want peace, and the most in
telligent South American nation will soon
forget that there has been q war;

Bar-ROOms and Saloons

The proposition to prohibit all sales OF
liquors in Staunton having been defeated
twice, the friends OF the measure are liable to
one of two errors; either to retire from the
contest in despair. or to stubbornly persevere
in urging hopeless conflict on the same line.
AS one who voted prohibition at both cleo
tions.I venture to suggest o change of policy to
some extent. The burden OF compl amt has
been on account of bsr-rooms and saloons, and
they are unquestionably the source of three.
fourths of the evils which stare US IN the face.
believe that very many citizens who cannot
see their way dear to vote for total prohibi-
ton. would gladly go for law to suppress the
nuisances referred to. Let us then petition
the Legislature to pass a general law prohibit
ing the sale of liquor to be drunk at the place
where sold. or at least for local>option to that
extent.

BALDWIN DISTRICT FAIR.

The Baldwin District Fair held last week
would have been, in all respects. a great suc-
cess, If the weather had not been SO very unfa-
vorable on the first two days. 1t rain Tuesday
and Wednesday, and there was even a heavy
rain on Wednesday night, which had the eff
feet of preventing many from attending on
Thursday, and yet there was very large at
tendance on that day, showing that If the
weather had been fair on the day or two pre-
cedlng, there would have been an i'm.
mense number in attendance on Wednesday
and Thursday. The exhibition in its various
departments was very good. but could not be
seen and enjoyed because of the mud caused Of
the several days rains. The horses. cattle,
sheep. hogs. poultry. and other things, not to
mention those on exhibition in the Rotunda
were very good. The chief attraction and that
which excited most interest, was Pawnee Bits
show of Wild West scenes daily performed on
the track. The feats performed by some of his
riders were truly wonderful, and some of the
scenes represented were quite exciting. Hardy
q Son had on exhibition the largest and best
