and placed his report in the hands of
the Secretary of War, and was back
again in New York in August. In No

the Assistant Secretary of War. P. H.
Watson, calling him at once to Wash

Immediately after this episode Mr..

choice bright feed; ordinary grades are
steady at previous prices. Nothing new
in Oats; offerings are ample for all re-
quirements. Corn is still lower, and
weak al the decline: there is very slow
demand. Rye is weak; no changes.
Good Berries brought a trifie more.
Excepting in Apples receipts were light,
but as trade is also light there was not
much Improvement in prices. The bdlk
of the Apples coming sell between q
